It is visible though .you can't see something that size a quarter of a million miles away
It doesn't prove anything about the shape of the earth
I don’t think it’s that far away
If the moon were a rocky sphere, it would really poke some holes in the standard flat earth model
I know there are multiple models though
I guess I don’t follow a model
Just my senses
Ofc because there will never be a model for flat earth
If the earth were flat, and the moon were a rocky sphere hovering above it, then people in different parts of the world would see it from different angles
But we all see it from the same angle
Really it doesn’t even have to be made of rock for this to apply
Any sphere would act like this
I could “see” that
Lol
Lol
And the moon being a flat projection doesn’t work either, because it would appear squashed from angles, but I don’t think any flat earthers believe that
Flat earthers can’t even explain the movement of stars
What are you expecting with the moon
You are correct about light, Triscuit - in a vacuum, light waves do not dissipate.
I didn’t come here for proof. Just ideas
The only real answer that would cooperate with flat earth is if the moon were a sort of illusion that appeared to act exactly like a sphere orbiting a spherical planet at a distance of 238,000 miles
Lol
It is the same thing for the sun and stars btw
Some people here do think the moon isn't solid.
And planets
All I’ve seen is a bunch of sci-fi movies.
Planets look cool in Star Wars
Never been to one
Never will
You are on a planet
Am I?
How can you be sure
Oh yeah movies
there is something called earth
the planet we live on
I will agree it is some sort of earth, most likely not a blue marble
I’ve never seeeeen cuuurrrvvviiittttuuuurrreeee!!!!!! You?
You can see planets darkos
Telescope
I’ve seen Jupiter
It’s quite lovely
