if you wanna test the fog theory

you could go nearish a mountain and look where it should be

even if its obscured by fog it should still block out stars behind it

unless it somehow also becomes transparent

@0ct0plasm allegedly on your model, during the perihelion where the earth is closest to the sun the speed also changes and accelerates so we should feel some kind of motion. also fogs doesn't eliminate light it just blocks vision

@He Cute
1: the earth only accelerates relative to the sun as it falls closer and wraps around. when you're in freefall inside a plane you don't feel any acceleration, you just float, despite your acceleration towards the earth.

2: of course they don't block light, that's why distant stars can be seen on the horizon. the test would be to see if a mountain, a physical object in the way, would block out the light from those stars, or if instead the mountain is below the horizon and can't block that light.

@0ct0plasm 1. do you have any evidence for relativity?

2. if the fog is strong enough it could be able to obscure stars on the horizon but not always, fogs can sometimes even obscure the sun right on top of us so i don't see it not being able to also being able to do the same with stars on the horizon. weather conditions impacts how strong of a fog there is and we shouldn't assume it's the same always like you're proposing

well you could do a control

look next to the mountain

see if you can see stars there

@Tyler \\タイラー rope bending because of fisheye lens 😂 good one!

where there's nothing obscuring it

also i didn't mention relativity, i just meant that objects moving relative to another object can still move parallel to one another

there are several factors that plays into this like light pollution, altitude you're on, angle which you're looking on, weather conditions

so?

maybe you see no stars either way

that's still a result

@0ct0plasm do you have an example of an image or evidence of someone standing on a mountain and looking at 90 degrees to the horizon with a visible fog that obstructs the furthest ridges of a mountain and also blocks the stars?

why would i have an image like that on hand

Hello there

hiya

i was just proposing an experiment

Aloha

you made the claim that the star swould not be obstructed so you're basing your claims off what?

ok

i didnt claim anything

i proposed a method by which you could test which claim is correct

i already showed you evidence of it being correct with the ridges of a mountain getting less and less visible, is there any counter arguments you have?

i'm not saying the air doesn't obscure light at all

i'm saying that might not be the reason why you don't see far away objects

also im legit curious of this

what purpose would a secretive world-controlling organization have for making people believe the earth is round?

also

when you look at the horizon you don't see it fading out

you see a flat line

a sharp line

@He Cute fog isnt air density
