what if there were another explanation for how one can travel "around the world"?
nasa claims that you must pass through the van allen belt to get to the moon
What explanation?
its all a story
The earth being round seems logical to me
imagine north pole at the center
move East
logic requires axioms
keep going
you will end up back where you started, right?
Interesting
but they said its the radiation is too high and we dont have the technology to survive through it for even a few days
@ChinaGirlNL what are your axioms to tell you erth is a bll
your compass would keep pointing north....so it would take you in a circle
But there exist maps with both the north and south as center
but doesn't matter. compasses will always point North. south would be the other end of the needle
@ibn la'ahad "TheĀ astronautsĀ on the ISSĀ doĀ not regularly spend time inside theĀ belts, but from time to time solar storms expand theĀ beltsĀ to the orbit of the space station. In the 1960s, several Apollo crews wentĀ through the Van Allen belts on their way to and from the moon."
@Flat Earth PhD the picture is good but the suez cannel didnt exist in those days
@chad46 lol. never thought of that. not my pic
but same point
There are also upside-down maps with Australia at the center
yeah so you have to be careful with maps...we don't know the methods used to generate them
And orange-peel-like maps, so Hawaii doesn't get cut off
but anyway..just an example of how there can be alternate explanations that we don't learn in school....
we are only given one explanation for things
e.g. Big Bang/Evolution for the origins of Earth and life
Now I want to write a book about this... Just to see how my teacher would react
NOW you're talking! š
I would give anything to be in your shoes right now. I'd have a blast with my teachers
Lol
they'd hate me. they don't reward critical thinking but obedience. memorization.
Me: Is it possible to change the atom Ds to Sr?
_1 year later_
Me: Read this book. Then try to disagree ;)
lol
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdBR3tDXyVw has anyone ever seen this before
Yes
(Inside joke: Ds = Darmstadium, Sr = Strontium, translate darm and stront to Dutch and you see why my teacher looked a little strange after that question)
In the evening, I saw that quite a lot actually ^
@ibn la'ahad What about it?
