The flat earth model is a perfectly reasonable map projection of a globe, so it’s not particularly useful for proving OR disproving either, since it fits into both models

That being said there are all sorts of other experiments you can do to show the earth is round

Gyroscopic drift is one, you can tell with binoculars on a coast watching ships very easily

You can sight distance with a light and equal slats in a solid material

Or get more precise laser equipment that you can just buy on amazon

That surveyors use for buildings

Hi anyone on

Hi

Can someone explain to me the flat earth explanation of sunsets?

yes hello

what do you fellows think of the flat earthers who refuse to back up their own claims

@Euclid Claims without arguments can be dismissed without argument

Based

Oh and may i ask what part of gravity is so hard to believe?

Not proven

@Platinum Spark There is a lot of debate. Various theories. No proof on that one I know of.

1: Perspective causes it. Along with light also only traveling so far then it blacks out.

2: Light only travels so far then blacks out. Perspective or not causing these. It travels further in the thin air up above which is why above things are still lit up.

3 The Firmament is shaped in a special way to send the light down to earth and to cause sunup and sundown. Some of their experiments look not that bad.

4 We live on a four dimensional earth. Thus what we see depends on where we are. All we ever see is a shadow of the fourth dimension. This also would explain why we do not see the angels all around us. How God does what God does. God sees the fourth dimension as do the angels. This is my personal belief though I question it. It is a lie that the fourth dimension is time. I do not buy that at all. Time is nothing at all like the three dimensions we see.

Viewing a dimension that’s above our own will of course be different

It wouldn’t make sense if we saw higher dimensions the same as our own

If it were the case that the Earth was a sphere what differences would you expect to see?

The equation confirmed by trig. The curve is .666 feet times the number of miles squared. I never ever see that. This would be 66.6 feet in just ten miles. Many lakes are that wide. Yet on a calm day I can lay down by the water and see the other side. No curve at all.

I became a Flat Earther when I saw Norfolk Harbor from 40 miles away. No 1200 foot curve existed. I saw the sailboats all the way down to touching the water all over the Chesapeake Bay. Not one was blocked by any curve and the water looked very flat. It was a very calm day. A very clear day. Very abnormal for around here.

Brief question where are you getting the 666 feet figure?

I use the equation A^2 + B^2 = C^2. It confirms 8 inches times miles squared. 8 inches is .666 feet.

Tilt of earth is 23.4 or 66.6 degrees. Speed of earth zooming around the sun 66.600 MPH. Yes a lot of 666 in the claims of a ball earth.

They never say 66.6 degrees because people are too smart to buy 666.

How do you utilize the equation exactly?

Also you said 666 feet times miles squared earlier

I use A = Radius. B = distance. The Square root is taken to get C then I subtract the radius to get the curve.

It is in miles so I multiply to get feet.

0.666 feet.

Should have added the 0 to make it more clear the decimal point.

0.667 if you round correctly

Or 0.666666666...

Isnt C = 2piR the circumference equation?

It is

Pi is not used.

It is just a triangle.

Why would you use a triangular calculation to calculate a curve?

Because it is easy way to confirm the 0.666666... feet per miles squared. I only did it a few times. It is something like 0.6661 or something like that. I just said 0.666 because that is a symbol and it is very close to it. I would never care about the thousandth I could be off in the calculation.

You know that that formula describes a parabola and not a circle?

lmao you used the Pythagorean theorem

Yes but I want a triangle not a circle.
