K

Then what

Do ur angles

K, they would get slightly different angles

Pretty small, so not a good separation

The sun and moon are the same apparent size I don’t understand how measuring both from earth gets u different numbers to where it’s 92 million miles farther

During a total solar eclipse the moon is slightly larger than the sun, that's why totality is like 2 minutes long

Or maybe more

Ok that tiny bit bigger equals 02 million extra miles ?

92 million ?

@jeremy that bigger, is completely unrelated to the angles

system is flawed? just say gravity lmao

Ok why don’t u explain to me why the angle doesn’t work with the sun again u said cause the suns too far away ?

Right, when you try this method on the sun, it appears to be so far away compared to the base of any two oberver leg

But we r doing this to get the distance we don’t know it’s too far away yet

And the angles can't be measured accurately enough

We don’t know anything about the sun we are in a field with our theodolite

We try it and find that the distance is large, and we don't know it precisely, with that method

How’s it differ from the moon angles

Right, but this method can tell you it's too far for the method to give a good value

Because the angles we get when we do this on the moon are laregly different

When observers are far apart

So we measure the angles to the moon everything works fine then we do it with the sun and what ?

Sorry I’m not understanding

What goes wrong when we measure the angles to the sun

We barely see any angle change from one location to the next

I assume the "Truther" role means you are a flat earther?

Kinda like if your looking at a mountain far away, and walk 3 ft to the right, it's still in front of you

@jeremy

Why does it work with the moon then

the earth is a malteser

Okay, you are talking about the angular diameter?

if the earth is flat explain to me how trees exist

I don’t understand how this would work with the moon and not the sun as they are the same size

The earth is flat

just look at the evidence

Sure

Lemme build myself a rocket
