using them

Yes I know

well what you think the sun is

<:uh_duhh:583617741684998154>

Our solar system's star.

in the clouds

mkay

Not in the clouds

Much beyond the clouds.

yeah i heard it was 93 million miles or something 😂

Yea, just because it's a long distance does not meet it is false

just because they told you its that doesnt mean it is

I know.

ok

you have proof

I don't take things at face value

of these distances

you have proof then

?

Many fields of science depend on these distances, and the distance itself was mathmatticly descovered

without using pre determined methodology or maths of distances

how was it discovered

?

how do you know it true ,who discovered it and how

and how do you know thats true also

Christiaan Huygens

He is the one who first found it out

how

How do you know what is true?

Oh ye let me find his work

im asking you to state why you know its true

In 1653, astronomer Christiaan Huygens calculated the distance from Earth to the sun. He used the phases of Venus to find the angles in a Venus-Earth-sun triangle.

ohh dear

how far away os venus

and how do you know

this could take a looongg time

The underlying principle behind Halley's method is something called parallax, the shift in position that comes from viewing an object from two different points.

It would take a long time. But something taking a long time doesn't matter

you are going off methodology or distances of said objects and magnitudes sizes etc thats been given to you ,which you use as proof

which isnt proof

Also, tell me this, why would they hide the shape of the earth?
