Is that the model you're going with?

OK, that's pretty easy to prove wrong.

According to that model, the sun never sets nor rises at the North Pole. It circles the pole but never changes the angle from the horizon. Same with the moon.

Eclipses, either lunar or solar, are impossible.

The sun would be visible from every point on earth, all day.

On a clear day, from the top of Mt. Everest, you could see to everywhere.

If you wanted to fly to Australia from LAX, the quickest way would be head northwest and fly in a straight line.

Speaking of Australia, according to this map, it's about 10,000 miles wide.

And it would take over 70,000 miles minimum to circumnavigate Antarctica.

The tropic of capricorn, on this map, is considerably longer than the equator, which is false.

So this model of the flat earth is clearly wrong. Maybe you could provide a better model?

I get that this whole flat earth thing is mostly satire/ an exercise in questioning the philosophy of science, but you guys are always doing it wrong here.
You are supposed to come up with an actual working alternative model instead of just calling people shills and sheeps.
No fun with that on /x/

>>18147557
Give us the axioms of the system you're working with and we'll see if we can point out a contradiction, that you'll just handwave away by saying "Aliens" or "Memes" did it.

Compatible with the very "science" that disputes it, very clever...

The whole point of the flat earth theory is to go beyond science, because we believe it is simply wrong. A new model isn't needed, it's only requested by those who want to shoot it down.

>>18147787
>we'll see if we can point out a contradiction

How about you look at all the groundwork that support the flat earth theory instead, and explain how any of those successful experiments and observations can be dismissed. You can't and you know it, that's why you use logic and reason instead concrete examples.

I think the earth is flat, just because you seen a picture of some blue ball on a black, sparkly White background doesn't mean that is the truth.

You can't believe everything your superiors tell you.

Think with you brain, see with your eyes, feel with hands. The earth is flat.

I'll do you one better OP

According to that model you could hit the "Ice Wall" trying to sail around the Earth in any direction. All you have to do is get on a boat and take a rout that doesn't according to the actual Earth model.

Why has no Flat Earther done this?

Never has any concept seemed as much of a 'distraction conspiracy' to me as 'flat-earth' and it's peddlers.

They become too small to see. The waves closer to you will be relatively bigger and will cover them.

People need to have models, that actual explain the world. What exactly is it, that OP wants to get refuted?
He needs to put forward more information about his worldview than just "flat".
Does he follow the acceleration model? Does he use the infinite plane approach? Is there gravity in his worldview?

>>18149238

The horizon is at your eye level. When the ship gets closer to the horizon, waves between you and the ship will look bigger than the ship. Obviously, these waves are also close to the horizon from your viewpoint. The waves you can look down on will not do this.

>>18147557
People have been to the South Pole, which according to your model is a random-ass wall of ice.

>>18149274
waves dont matter. they cant block my vision, when my eyelevel is above the biggest wave

>>18149294

The biggest wave is by your foot. Unless it's really high it won't block your view, but it can if it is big. That not what I was saying still. Read my post again.

>>18149313
>Unless it's really high it won't block your view
exactly
if my viewpoint is high enough, no wave will block my view.
your wave argument doesnt hold any water

>>18149318
>if my viewpoint is high enough, no wave will block my view

At a certain point you're looking down from space, but that is an extreme thing to bring up here, it wasn't what we were talking about. Normally you stand on a boat and it's limited in height. This is what we are talking about.

>>18148678

It's not b8. I actually believe it. :^) Or do I [I do]?

>>18149332
>This is what we are talking about.
no it isnt. we are talking about things "vanishing" behind the horizon. Bringing up things blocking the vision is besides the point. I can sit in a lifeguard tower on a beach and see ships going under the horizon, although I am above all waves. There is also a horizon on land.
waves arent a factor at all

It's almost as if the ancients knew the earth is a globe even before those shills at nasa lied to us about it

the universe is able to make a fucking BALL WHICH IS ROUND, yet on the ground I stand is a flat disk?

>>18149763

Further to this, science offers two separate proofs:

If balls come from Earth;
And balls are round;
Therefore Earth is round.

If you place a ball on the ground it will roll. It rolls because the Earth is round. Round things roll when placed against other round things. (This is why your car drives through the action of rolling its tires.)

>>18149378
The ancient depictions are with celestial spheres as opposed to a globe.

>>18147557
>be flat earther
>open thread on /x/ instead of /sci/
you dipshits are perfectly aware this shit have no base

I refuse. There is a conspiracy to convince a small subset of the population of a number of absolutely stupid conspiracies (fake moon landing, earth being flat, etc.) so that any and all theories about conspiracies will be laughed at by the general public. This is to keep them from discovering the true conspiracies (your disappeared socks go to the Fifth Dimension, everyone you personally dislike is in the Illuminati, etc.).

As that guy who never really bullied you in school, but whose personality just never really meshed well with yours, I stand to benefit from said conspiracy. So I will not prove you wrong.

I only tell you all this because I know you won't believe me anyway fnord.

>Prove to me the world isn't flat

ok simple

go outside

look up at the sky

catch the light in your eyes from stars and planets thousands and thousands of miles away, pouring directly into your eyes

now grab a telescope

point it directly into the horizon

try to find landmarks like the eiffel tower and the statue of liberty etc. that are closer than those planets and stars

try to find something you could actually see if the earth was flat

realize you cant because the earth is curved

>>18148575
Because compasses are misleading.
Also the plane is flat, the space is round.
When closer to south pole the space is more bent and condensed resulting in huge difficulty navigating by sea. (the compasses will malfunction and keep misdirecting making you bend your navigation in a side arc shape)

That's why most flights and navigation are done oriented towards the north(center 90 degree radius)

The 90* degree pole are not points, each is a huge radius of hundreds to thousands of km of pure 90* degree on the compass. more into the center beyond that radius line the compass starts spinning like crazy instead of flipping sides, becoming useless. The magnetic 90 degree radius in Antarctica is way bigger than the Arctic one, it is in tens of thousands of km and has extreme radiation closer to the center (slightly stronger than the inner Van Allen radiation belt level), same with north pole but slightly much less radius, at both poles beyond the center point the horizon flips(contracts to a single point then expands) and you enter another bent space of another plane(earth).

Plane is flat, Space is bent, like cells interconnected at their poles.

>>18150427
Actually you can, the the density in the air is what stops you from seeing past some point. On an extremely clear day you are able to see close to ~200miles in a straight level line in distance clearly by using a telescope.

The argument goes that if the government can dupe the people into believing the earth is round, then they have total control and dupe them into anything.

The other common argument is that it's Satan trying to trick us into being against God, because the Bible says the earth is flat.

Under the logic of Flat earthers, the Horizon is the edge of the world. During a sunset, the sun clearly goes beneath the horizon. In another part of the world, at the same time, it's daylight. For example: If you are in the UK then when it's night time there it's daylight in Japan.

So, the fact the sun goes beneath the horizon in one place while daylight is experienced in another shows the world isn't flat because if it were flat, a sunset would mean the sun dipping under the disc of the earth.

gravity doesn't exist, this lie can be discarded using common sense like in this quote from Thomas Winship

>“That the sun’s path is an exact circle for only about four periods in a year, and then of only a few hours - at the equinoxes and solstices - completely disproves the ‘might have been’ of circular gravitation, and by consequence, of all gravitation … If the sun were of sufficient power to retain the earth in its orbit when nearest the sun, when the earth arrived at that part of its elliptical path farthest from the sun, the attractive force (unless very greatly increased) would be utterly incapable of preventing the earth rushing away into space ‘in a right line forever,’ as astronomers say. On the other hand, it is equally clear that if the sun’s attraction were just sufficient to keep the earth in its proper path when farthest from the sun, and thus to prevent it rushing off into space; the same power of attraction when the earth was nearest the sun would be so much greater, that (unless the attraction were very greatly diminished) nothing would prevent the earth rushing towards and being absorbed by the sun, there being no counterbalancing focus to prevent such a catastrophe! As astronomy makes no reference to the increase and diminution of the attractive force of the sun, called gravitation, for the above necessary purposes, we are again forced to the conclusion that the great ‘discovery’ of which astronomers are so proud is absolutely non-existent.” -Thomas Winship, “Zetetic Cosmogeny” (44-45)

Looks like somebody's been listening to Eric Dubay.

This guy is confusing the tilt of the earth with the elliptical path of the earth's orbit. Two unrelated phenomenon. He's also forgetting that the earth moves faster at it's perigee than at it's apogee, which exactly accounts for the difference in gravity at those two distatnces.

All of this is exactly, and simply, as predicted by Newton's laws of gravitation.

A plainly obvious flaw with flat earth theory is the uniform speed at which the Sun moves through the sky.

Imagine a circular race track, floating just above your head. You see the car speeding towards you from a distance and it may take a while, but the closer it gets the faster it seems to move up until it passes directly overhead and you have to crane your neck to follow. This would be the Sun's path if it were as close as Flat Earthers claim.

Now imagine a larger circular racetrack, with you situated directly in the middle. Since the car is always an equal distance from you, it appears to move at a uniform speed all the way around the track. This is what we observe with the Sun.

You realize that this map is debunked by sheer airline/ship travel times and routes right?

>Baja California to Tokyo
>More time than Alaska to Europe

And:

>New York to United Kingdom flight path
>Implying they fly in a giant U turn

For this map to be correct, literally every single person involved in navigation resources in any kind of global scale would have to be "In" on "the conspiracy". This is not a difficult profession to get into. Think about that for a second, so every time someone enters this trade that means at some point during their lessons the instructor says:

"Oh and by the way the Earth is actually flat but it's a secret don't tell anyone. So you also need to redo the route, remake the path on a different map, and fake the travel time logs in order to fool everyone on board. Also, here is your government issue local time-control device which can slow or speed up time around you so no one notices the lost hours"

Are you fucking for real?

Anyone who convinces themselves of this is colossally and irredeemably stupid. Flat Earth is not a redpill. It's just being stupid and bad at basic math.

You can see them faking a small Earth as would be seen in a distance using a cache with a hole in it of the desired size to simulate a small globe.

Maybe you're be better off rephrasing what you just said in proper English.

But I get your jist.

The earth is much larger than the moon. If you go very far away and take their picture together, you get a good approximation of their relative size. In the DSCOVR photo, that's fairly close to their relative size.

In the picture of the astronaut on the moon. The moon actually looks bigger than the earth, because it's closer to the camera. Also the astronaut looks bigger than the earth, also because he is closer to the camera. It does not mean that the astronaut is bigger than the earth.

This is a phenomenon scientists call "perspective."

when you magnify a scene using a normal lens, all the objects get magnified at the same time and with the same ratio, i.e their relative size isn't affected.

distance is not the problem here, relative size is.

>>18152190
The photograph taken from DSCOVR is magnified. Because the earth and the moon are, relatively, close together, they are both magnified at about the same amount. Thus the earth is bigger than the moon, as it is in reality.

The photo taken of the astronaut is not magnified at all. it is "zoomed all the way out." Because the astronaut is very close to the camera, he appears very large. Because the earth is very far away from the camera, it appears very small.

You are in no position to accuse others of talking out their ass.

>>18152232

No, the camera is below the level of the table. If you find the center of the original image (it's on youtube), it's centered about an inch into the wood of the table.

Your stand above the surface but your eyes are at the level of the horizon (regardless of your altitude which is remarkable). The camera (your eyes) has to be on the same level as the table (horizon)
If Earth was a sphere, an oblate spheroid or a potatocuck then at 100,000 feet you would have to look down to see the horizon line, the matter of the fact is even at this altitude the horizon is at eyes' level. This alone is an undeniable proof that Earth is indeed flat.
see >>18151701 for instance or watch one of the numerous amateur balloons going as high as 130,000 feet without any sign of curvature whatsoever.
There is a 100% certainty that Earth is flat.

Only difference is context my friend, not in the burden itself. Even in an intellectual context its use is drawn from law, and implies someone is obligated, but why, is their theory that believable that you need all the proof so you can throw away your old beliefs.

I believe it's about 5 or 6 degrees. And it turns out you do. A little tricky to see by the naked eye, and on a moving aircraft, but if you bring a level with you, it should be easy to see.

Shit, on a commercial airplane you can do it. About 3 degrees. Try it next time.

Of course not, that picture is taking off from the airport and it's only a couple thousand feet off the ground.

>>18152245
also compare the pics
here
>>18152314
and
>>18151749

This is perspective at work. The sun is simply going away (not below). Ecuador (where that pic was shot) is located right onto the equator line so that the Sun comes closer to the area than for any northern/southern countries. As a result the difference in the apparent size of the solar disc between noon and sunset is greater here than it will ever be in the northern/southern countries.

>>18152314
You are missing the point. The edge of the table is not a good model for the horizon. It doesnt simulate the effect. It is simply the edge that is right in front of you, that is blocking the vision
The horizon also isnt at eye level.

but it isnt. it is halfway under the table. it needs to be ON the table to work as an anology

The earth is bigger than the moon. This is relative size. How much bigger? Well it's about 1/4 the radius.

Pretty close to that photo.

relative size doesnt change when you are zooming.
Everything just gets magnified by the same ratio

>>18152245
>the edge of the table blocks the vision
you misunderstood the experiment, it isn't the edge of the table that blocks the vision but perspective, in the exact same way you see half a boat in the distance and magically if you zoom into said boat with a telescope the entire boat is back here. Simple optical trick.

>>18152410
Well, you just showed how flawed that table shit is. If I would zoom in there, the edge would still block the vision and I wouldnt see more of the coin.
I refuse to believe you dont understand this at that point. I explained it over and over again and have to assume you are just trolling

>>18152406
Here's one that gives them trouble.

>>18152410
In this false analogy you've constructed, you're digging a hole in the ground, ducking down until the edge of the hole blocks the bottom of a nearby boat, and saying "see! perspective."

In reality we can see the surface of the ocean when we stand on the beach, thus we should be able to see the top of your table.

Are you the guy who made the original youtube video?

Because even the people in the comments section quickly proved you wrong.

Our Sun and Moon are circling above our heads, So when the Sun is "rising", it is actually coming to you and bringing its day light, then its apparent size grows until about noon then shrinks again as it is leaving your area to bring its daylight on the other side.

exactly so that the point you made is wrong. Thank you for fixing your mistake.

>>18152404
according to startrek sciences, relative size of earth seen from the surface of the moon should be 4 times the size of the Moon seen from Earth. This is of course complete bullshit but for the sake of the argumentation we will assume it is real. But then you have to realize that it doesn't work with the "shot" made by the EPIC trash, you can clearly see that Earth isn't 4 times as big as Earth, no matter how much magnified they are, their relative size should still show a 1:4 ratio.

This is the basic idea. North is the north pole, in the middle, South is everywhere pointing away from the center, and West and East are clockwise and anti-clockwise respectively. That way if you travel East, you are actually going in a circle. it's not really so dissimilar to when you travel East on a globe, from the perspective of the top or bottom pole you are traveling in a circle.

two comments,
1/ where do these numerical values come from? seems to be the flat earth society (a well known disinfo agency)
2/ Who claims that the Sun can never be less than 15* above the horizon? (which is retarded)
the same disinfo agency

the flat earth society is a club of shills paid with taxpayers' moneys (like NASA) whose job is to make the flat earth looks stupid. Nobody ever make any mention of them (except shills like you) because everybody knows who they are.
so to answer your post, the Sun can go all the way down and appear as if "melting" with the horizon (perspective effect) to the point of disappearing entirely (night time)

simple logic.

>>18152606

You are just avoiding the argument. What are the correct numbers then? What numbers would explain our everyday observations?

>>18152527
>who says the sun can never be less than 15 degree above the horizon

It follows from the premise of the flat earth.

Eratosthenes measured the circumference of the earth. He claimed that the world is 25,000 miles in circumference and a globe.

Flat earthers, claiming the world is flat, use the same measurements but given their presumption the world is flat, this must mean the sun is small and 3,000 miles away.

Again this just trigonometry, observations, and the assumption that the earth is flat.

Now it's also known that at noon on any given day of the year, the sun is directly over head somewhere on earth, between the tropics of capricorn and cancer.

Therefore, according to this simply logic, the 3,000 mile away sun must circle in the sky above those regions of the flat earth. Thus, again using trigonometry, from everywhere on earth the sun can be no lower than 15 degrees.

Does it make sense? From a very limited amount of givens, yes.

Does it make sense? No. In trying to make sense of one thing, flat earthers completely fuck everything else up, for example, sunsets and sunrises.

>>18152627
>What numbers would explain that the Sun light disapears?

first a fact, the light doesn't actually travel to infinity (I know this is another lie taught by startrek sciences)
second the law of perspective.
again see
>>18150691
the apparent angle made between the Sun and Earth tends toward 0 as the Sun goes away and melts with the horizon.
apparent is keyword here, the real angle isn't 0 obviously but the solar disc entirely goes off the observer sight thanks to basic law of perspective
This and the fact that the light can only travel a few thousand miles at best explains WHY you experience night time every 24 hours periods.

>>18152481
You're still not understanding how perspective works.

Here, watch this famous clip. It deals with magnification and distance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbeXzJDYxS0

Can you figure out how that works? Probably not on your own so I'll tell you. The camera man zooms out, making objects appear to get further away. Wait, how come Sheriff Brody gets bigger? Because at the same time the camera man is zooming out, he's moving closer to the subject in the foreground.

Magnification by itself doesn't change relative size. But distance does. There's that funny perspective thing again. It's so complicated, ins't it? Well, no. People were figuring this shit out in the middle ages. You should be capable too.

>>18152659
If it were a perspective issue, then the sun would simply get smaller and smaller and smaller until we couldn't see it any more. Instead it disappears out of line of sight without changing in apparent size. Because the horizon comes between the sun and the viewer.

>>18152650
Eratosthenes made two critical assumptions, that Earth was a sphere and the Sun a giant star located millions miles away (so that all sun rays had to be parallel while hitting the ground) from these two assumptions (both are actually wrong) he determined what would be the curvature between two well known areas solely based on the discrepancies in the shadows produced at a precise day of the year in said areas. From that curvature he then determined the circumference of the Earth. Which would be correct if Earth was a sphere and the Sun a distant star.
Unfortunately his experiment is worthless since his assumptions are wrong.
the Sun rays hit the ground with an angle because the Sun is very small and very close, and not the other way.
Moreover you claimed earlier that value came from the flat earth society but actually it comes from a baller, so you are mixing a bit of everything here which is pretty much confusing.
but the Eratosthenes argument is retarded, his experiment proves nothing relevant to this chatter.
