im trying to but ur debating me on if knowledge is power
u said why would they lie
What will someone benefit with knowing what shape the earth is?
That could lead to power
@jeremy you coudl do the Vendee globe sailing race to confirm the shape of hte earth
it goes around the south pole, they have to turn right instead of left
that's only possible on a globe
lol
the two celestial poles debunks the flat earth as well
its impossible to sail around the edge of antarctica on the flat earth map by only turning right ?
right, if going west to east
first we'd need to see a useful flat earth map, but no one has produced one
i think if antarctica was sourrounding earth like the flat earth maps have it u could go west and always be turning right
???
how
that would require turning left
if u were going east on flat earth u would have to turn left only
oh i see ya you'reright
yeah
ok
west is clockwise
on flat earth right
yes
so ur going around the edge of antarctica the coast is to ur left
u are making right turns the whole time
ur not goin left ucrash into the coast
There technically is no "flat earth map" however.
the general ae map
Why that map?
isnt that what they use
I guess
It is merely a projection tho, not based on actual measurements
yeah
ive heard recently the maps we had in school didnt have the continent sizes based on actual measurements htough
Yeah, because we live on a spheroid supposedly, so all flat euclidean maps are "distorted" to some extent
so teh continent size is accurate on globes
yes it takesa 3d object to represent everything properly
all flat maps are distorted and stretched, which is why antarctica covers teh whole bottom of maps
