Oh god u don’t want to start that
I got something for u
ty
Why wouldn't they lie
Have you seen the news lately
The only news I know is of the government shutdown. I dont watch the news because 1. Boring. 2. Could be yellow journalism. 3. If it's important enough, I'll hear about it without watching the news, like the gov. shutdown.
This is a visualization of the star trails and why they diverge from the equatorial star trail.
Thsts not how it would look on a spinning ball
How so?
It's about the exact same
That's how a spinning ball would look
If you are looking straight up that's how it would look
It's impossible for a curved star strail, like a star trail near a polar star, to be a straight line while far to the left/right of your FOV
It's like holding a hula hoop out in front of you vertically and seeing a straight line, then moving it to the right and still seeing a straight line and not an arc towards your middle FOV
So we live on a tiny earth?
The size of a hula hoop
It's an analogy
Like, try imagining that image you drew with the straight lines over my image, but with the northern and souther polar stars
To the left and right
I understand what you are saying I think. Im just picturing what it should look like if looking up 90 degrees from the ground
Not sideways just straight up
And if you were on the outside of the spinning ball, most the lines should be straight
Its impossible to always get straight lines besides near the equator since eventually the lines will have to shrink in size
Like this
And become the polar stars and the tiny circles around them, slowly making them circles and not straight lines
That middle line represents the star trail at the equator btw
I will try to do an experiment
Or find other examples
so if the earth is flat, how come nobody has ever fallen off the edge?
and if there is an ice wall, how come nobody has ever climbed on top of it?
i feel like these are things that would definitely make new headlines.
hahaha
Uh, apparently the government keep people away from the ice wall 24/7
Which would be a lot of ships
which would probably be even more noticeable
I mean they could just say you can't go to Antarctica its off limits and all the companies would suck em off and not go there, or take people there
so you are trying to tell me that throughout the entire history of earth, nobody has ever tried to peek over the edge?
btw there is no edge, the earth is spherical
