yeah the solstice one can be represented visually on a flat model, cant put it into words

2020-02-15 13:44:35 UTC  

Is there a link?

2020-02-15 13:45:01 UTC  

Actually I can dig it up myself

2020-02-15 13:45:29 UTC  

hold on its hard to find, imtriyng to find a good one

ok so ignoring the text. oh nvm

2020-02-15 13:46:18 UTC  

it was a .gif that screwed up

2020-02-15 13:46:33 UTC  

Maleman, you’re not being honest. Earth being a sphere makes no sense when there is zero observable curve of earth in real life.

2020-02-15 13:46:37 UTC  

but the circles around the middle are lines where the sun would move to during seasons thus causing season changes

2020-02-15 13:47:08 UTC  

Seasons is not an issue, it could be explained with altitude

2020-02-15 13:48:18 UTC  

Imagine explaining that with refraction

2020-02-15 13:48:42 UTC  

@D.Robertson you are just repeating the same unprovable arguments as they are given to you on youtube.

2020-02-15 13:48:49 UTC  

Stupid.

2020-02-15 13:49:11 UTC  

Mhm

2020-02-15 13:49:12 UTC  

man this is the limit of the eye's distance. when viewed from a higher altitude, you see the turbine in entirety, and ofc, you see 0 curvature at any height

2020-02-15 13:49:58 UTC  

Why is the bottom not visible, but there's a hard horizon from the water?

2020-02-15 13:50:06 UTC  

On those windmills?

@maleman it has already been explained to you, tons of times.

2020-02-15 13:50:30 UTC  

Shown to you.

2020-02-15 13:50:35 UTC  

Repeated to you.

2020-02-15 13:50:36 UTC  

there we go!!! we cant see the quarter across the table, is the TABLE ROUND???????

2020-02-15 13:50:41 UTC  

You’re brainwashed.

2020-02-15 13:50:41 UTC  

That's not an explanation tho

2020-02-15 13:50:45 UTC  

it MUST BE THE CURVATURE of the TABLE

2020-02-15 14:00:11 UTC  

Does that mean that those lines converge?

2020-02-15 14:00:22 UTC  

yup

2020-02-15 14:00:36 UTC  

If im looking for a thing thats well above the horizon, it would be upside down?

2020-02-15 14:01:00 UTC  

why would it be upside down?

2020-02-15 14:01:01 UTC  

Like the sun

2020-02-15 14:01:12 UTC  

If those lines cross, they cross, no?

2020-02-15 14:01:27 UTC  

I mean to me the sun seems to be a ball, and a ball has no up or down or side, or upside down

2020-02-15 14:01:54 UTC  

however, I can't make any certainty as to what I think the sun actually is

2020-02-15 14:02:14 UTC  

Well, that would mean that we can't see the sun after it's gone down, but we can

2020-02-15 14:02:25 UTC  

If we rise in elevatiom

2020-02-15 14:02:26 UTC  

I dont understand your question

2020-02-15 14:02:47 UTC  

I can see the sun set at sea, is that due to it's distance?

2020-02-15 14:02:56 UTC  

So small that it's not visible?

2020-02-15 14:03:52 UTC  

Tho it's huge when it goes down, bottom first, but let's not concentrate on that
