It is visible though .you can't see something that size a quarter of a million miles away

2019-12-12 22:49:38 UTC  

It doesn't prove anything about the shape of the earth

2019-12-12 22:49:53 UTC  

I don’t think it’s that far away

2019-12-12 22:50:15 UTC  

If the moon were a rocky sphere, it would really poke some holes in the standard flat earth model

2019-12-12 22:50:22 UTC  

I know there are multiple models though

2019-12-12 22:50:45 UTC  

I guess I don’t follow a model

2019-12-12 22:50:52 UTC  

Just my senses

2019-12-12 22:51:32 UTC  

Ofc because there will never be a model for flat earth

2019-12-12 22:52:35 UTC  

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

2019-12-12 22:52:43 UTC  

But we all see it from the same angle

2019-12-12 22:52:58 UTC  

Really it doesn’t even have to be made of rock for this to apply

2019-12-12 22:53:06 UTC  

Any sphere would act like this

2019-12-12 22:53:56 UTC  

I could “see” that

2019-12-12 22:54:02 UTC  

Lol

2019-12-12 22:54:11 UTC  

Lol

2019-12-12 22:54:50 UTC  

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

2019-12-12 22:54:55 UTC  

Flat earthers can’t even explain the movement of stars

2019-12-12 22:55:09 UTC  

What are you expecting with the moon

2019-12-12 22:55:55 UTC  

You are correct about light, Triscuit - in a vacuum, light waves do not dissipate.

2019-12-12 22:56:33 UTC  

I didn’t come here for proof. Just ideas

2019-12-12 22:57:03 UTC  

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

2019-12-12 22:57:16 UTC  

Lol

2019-12-12 22:57:43 UTC  

It is the same thing for the sun and stars btw

2019-12-12 22:57:48 UTC  

Some people here do think the moon isn't solid.

2019-12-12 22:57:52 UTC  

And planets

2019-12-12 23:00:05 UTC  

All I’ve seen is a bunch of sci-fi movies.

2019-12-12 23:00:16 UTC  

Planets look cool in Star Wars

2019-12-12 23:00:25 UTC  

Never been to one

2019-12-12 23:00:31 UTC  

Never will

2019-12-12 23:01:06 UTC  

You are on a planet

2019-12-12 23:02:07 UTC  

Am I?

2019-12-12 23:02:19 UTC  

How can you be sure

2019-12-12 23:02:26 UTC  

Oh yeah movies

2019-12-12 23:02:51 UTC  

there is something called earth

2019-12-12 23:03:02 UTC  

the planet we live on

2019-12-12 23:04:05 UTC  

I will agree it is some sort of earth, most likely not a blue marble

2019-12-12 23:06:40 UTC  

I’ve never seeeeen cuuurrrvvviiittttuuuurrreeee!!!!!! You?

2019-12-12 23:16:00 UTC  

You can see planets darkos

2019-12-12 23:16:04 UTC  

Telescope

2019-12-12 23:16:14 UTC  

I’ve seen Jupiter

2019-12-12 23:16:18 UTC  

It’s quite lovely
