Does the sun look and act like stars?

2019-08-25 05:29:44 UTC  

no

2019-08-25 05:29:52 UTC  

Human perception is just too weak to say that you experience earth as flat in your everyday life

2019-08-25 05:30:03 UTC  

the sun's a lot bigger and brighter

2019-08-25 05:30:09 UTC  

and i've never seen a star in front of a sun

2019-08-25 05:30:16 UTC  

while a star can go behind the sun

2019-08-25 05:30:29 UTC  

Do the planets look an act like the floor you stand on?

2019-08-25 05:30:44 UTC  

i dunno what you mean by that

2019-08-25 05:30:53 UTC  

only planet i know of that acts like a floor through personal experience is earth

2019-08-25 05:31:05 UTC  

Its rhetorical

2019-08-25 05:31:10 UTC  

Correct

2019-08-25 05:32:26 UTC  

Have you ever experienced attraction to center of mass?

2019-08-25 05:32:39 UTC  

does the earth count?

2019-08-25 05:33:14 UTC  

Is it an assumed value or an experienced one?

2019-08-25 05:33:39 UTC  

it's an attributed explanation

2019-08-25 05:33:45 UTC  

based on inductive data

2019-08-25 05:34:59 UTC  

I for example experience a linear downward acceleration

2019-08-25 05:35:07 UTC  

me too

2019-08-25 05:35:26 UTC  

But adding center of mass is the assumption

2019-08-25 05:35:47 UTC  

So the model is asserting two ideas into one

2019-08-25 05:36:05 UTC  

i dont think to call it an assumption is accurate

2019-08-25 05:36:15 UTC  

there is empirical evidence from satellite data

2019-08-25 05:36:57 UTC  

and fact that the horizon moves when you are in a car and you drive

2019-08-25 05:37:34 UTC  

Im coming from an emperical deduction

2019-08-25 05:37:43 UTC  

Thats what this exercise is

2019-08-25 05:37:51 UTC  

have you ever been in a car?

2019-08-25 05:37:56 UTC  

You don't experience a flat earth, you assume it.

2019-08-25 05:38:14 UTC  

You experience a locally relatively flat earth in short distances

2019-08-25 05:38:38 UTC  

saying the globe theory is too small to observe doesn't change the fact that we don't observe it

2019-08-25 05:38:38 UTC  

Is the car moving? Is it doing donuts around a track? Is my head put the window?

2019-08-25 05:38:47 UTC  

i mean going straight

2019-08-25 05:38:52 UTC  

for long distances

2019-08-25 05:38:55 UTC  

preferrably

2019-08-25 05:38:58 UTC  

Yup

2019-08-25 05:39:11 UTC  

have you noticed things far off in the distance you couldn't see before come into view?

2019-08-25 05:40:23 UTC  

because there are hills and buildings

2019-08-25 05:40:30 UTC  

Thats because all objects at sharp angles form into a horizon and the angle between the top and bottom of objects are not the same

2019-08-25 05:41:02 UTC  

Then you have obtical effects and other factors

2019-08-25 05:41:09 UTC  

that sounds similar, hills and buildings are larger in angle when close up

2019-08-25 05:41:18 UTC  

and yeah

2019-08-25 05:41:20 UTC  

have you noticed that objects far away near the horizon become much lower from the horizon when you get close to it?
