So let me propose a though experiment to explain this
Yet no one ever has
the moon is far away
really far
So
Shouldnt matter
if a mountain is 20 miles from you
If u r moving in a circle on a globe. The moon would rise and set and you would see different sides of it
and you walk five feet in any direction
will you see a signficant change?
in the mountain?
Thats not the same
why not?
If the moon is 1/6 or 1/4 the size of earth and 238k miles away and the earth is 25k.in circumference that would make the sides if the moon visible over the course of 12 hours on earth from the moon rising or setting
5ft compared to a mountain is not comparable
can you vc rn?
No cookinh
ok
so
in a globe model
Why dont you make a graphic that debunks or confirms the globe
To this conversation
ok
give me, like, 5-10 minutes
@Citizen Z is is roughly to scale
I drew the moon slightly closer than it would be
Tidal locking isn’t rare in the universe
red to blue is 12 hours
Pluto and Charon are tidally locked to each other
The Galilean Moon’s are tidally locked to Jupiter
Hey
Ok i see your point. I disagree. The moon doesnt look that far away in real life
I think we would need to do this in blender
One day I'll figure out how
@Citizen Z ask Drewski
he has made models to scale to test them
Oi mates can you hook me up with a pic of the edge of the earth
Arguing with me mate and he thinks the earth is round :/
