where did you get 40-50 hours from?
Just an educated guess
Should be clear that whatever amount of time it takes to actually make that flight wouldn't be possible on a flat earth
@the21cat So you're saying hot air rises and causes the wind?
also, since it's rising, it's getting closer to the sun (source of heat), so why does it cool down?
I think 40-50 hours may be a little off when you consider that the WR for circumnavigating the earth is 67 hours
Welp, that only drives home my point
@NinjaApple where did you get that info? also, what was the path taken?
I just searched on google "How fast can you circumnavigate the earth" And looked at the top result
Some FEers believe there's more land and resources beyond the ice wall.
"Essentially, the answer depends on the rules of the game. The record for circumnavigating the world within our own atmosphere was set back in 1992 by Air France, who made the trip in the Concorde in a little under 33 hours"
The Concorde is a supersonic plane
I honestly have no idea what the path taken was
Hey, guys i find Epstein in white house logs
??
he's trolling
If you're going to troll at least be funny
so I asked a question earlier but it took so long to answer that I had to go and the guy who answered left, maybe someone else can answer.
How does wind work in FE, how are different weather possible?
For some reason. It won't let me post a screenshot on here
you're a new member, you probably don't have the permissions
Fair enough
@Akhanyatin hotter air than surroundings is created in certain places with high sunlight (i would presume high pressure spots mainly). These areas then get very hot and the air rises because of convection. That creates a low pressure which creates wind
Bad connection rn sry
ok but how does the air cool down? (it has to get back down eventually does it not?)
In the troposphere as you go higher the temp goes down
why? you're getting closer to the sun
isn't the sun close to earth?
Its actually direct vs indirect sunlight not closeness to the sun that determines heat. I only say this because you are a global earther
I cant give an exact answer for why its getting colder, but its evident through weather balloons and we can see the peaks of mountains get much colder
Im sure there is some research that would say why
could it be because of a pressure difference?
Wrong
Possibly. I think gay lussac or one of those laws said something about temp and pressure
Wrong once again
But it is
Temp and pressure are related
Ill get the law real quick
Indeed but not the wat you put it
so if, when you go higher up, the pressure gets lower, is it possible for the pressure to reach 0, when you are very far from earth?
Have you heard of a vacuum?
