So? It doesn't depend on whether he used 3, just that using 3 disproves flat earth
what is next
it doesnt disprove we dont know 3 would or wouldnt work
Uh, yes we do
have u seen it done or done it ?
Yes, many have
What Eratosthenes did is repeatable
eratosthenes proved nothing though
he proved his experiment would work on a sphere or flat earth
hes out the window he is no proof of anything
We know his experiment measured the circumference because it is only consistent on a Globe
no his experiment would work with a flat earth and local sun
he proved nothing
It is only consistent on a globe
how do u figure
nm i gotta run
he proved nothing though
Because we know how sun angles work
And that Eratosthenes measured the circumference
If it were a local sun, that would make some extra predictions,
1. The sun would change angular size throughout the day in a predictable relationship which can be calculated by knowing distances
2. The sun would appear to slow down drastically as it gets further away.
3. The sun either wouldn't set or it just goes under the earth and night is the same everywhere.
Each are testable and verifiable
im just saying if eratosthenes experiment works on a flat earth how did he prove anything maybe it was the flat way that worked for him and not the sphere'
maybe he calculated the distance around the equator of a flat earth
could have been either way bro
🗿
im just wondering
how does the air not escape on a flat earth
without gravity
It would just fall to earth like we do and form an 'atmosphere', or more properly, atmolayer
The difference would be that it is straight down rather than to a center point
"fall to the earth"
then why are there air above us
or why dont they fall of
the eadge
edge*
Cuz we are contained
by what
a dome of some sorts?
yes
a dome?
"why are there air above us"
🤔
