Questions for all the globe-fags out there about their model of the universe. These are just a few of the questions one can come up with when they think about the present day explanation of the universe with an open, inquisitive mind. Please turn this into some delicious copypasta to share with everyone on the board.
Gravity:
What came first, the gravity or the mass? How exactly does a planet form itself when the force of the big bang is supposedly sending everything in the universe in opposite directions and the vacuum of space should be pulling everything apart? How much mass (and therefore gravity) is needed to overcome these forces and how does it accumulate to this amount in the first place?
If the moon causes the tides due to its gravitational pull on the Earth, why don’t we see its effects anywhere else? Why, for instance, doesn’t our hair rise up when the moon is overhead?
How can gravity be both strong enough to keep our atmosphere stuck to the planet when there is an infinite vacuum surrounding it, and yet be weak enough for me to jump into the air or for a bird or insect to fly with ease?
If we cannot simulate the effects of gravity on Earth because any amount of gravity generated by a mass on Earth is overwhelmed by the Earth’s far greater gravity, why does the moon orbit the Earth and not the sun which has far greater gravity than the Earth?

Curvature:
At what height should a person expect to see any curvature on the horizon line?
If the horizon line is where the curvature of the Earth becomes apparent (as this is where we supposedly begin to see objects like ships sink below the curvature) then why can’t we see any curvature on the horizon line? Wouldn’t this indicate a cylindrical shape rather than spherical?
>>
>>18610291
Rotation and orbit:
Why can’t we feel the effects of the Earth’s 1,000mph spin? Why doesn’t the wind seem to rush past us in the opposite direction of the Earth’s orbit at hundreds of miles per hour at all times?
Even if it were true that you can’t feel the effects of a constant speed such as when you’re driving at a constant speed (which isn’t true. Have you ever tried walking around on a moving train?), how can we not feel the effects of the Earth’s 70,000mph orbit around the sun which would throw off the direction of our inertia constantly and is supposedly slowing down and speeding up throughout the year. What about the sun’s 450,000 mph orbit around the galaxy?
If the Coriolis effect is caused by the Earth’s spin and has such a significant influence on the weather and ocean currents, why don’t the aforementioned greater speeds of the Earth’s and sun’s orbits have similar effects on the planet? Shouldn’t the atmosphere be ripped away from the Earth under these conditions?
If the Coriolis effect also modifies the trajectory of bullets once they’re flying in mid-air, shouldn’t this also have an effect on airplanes? For instance, shouldn’t a plane traveling east to west be able to fly much faster than a plane traveling west to east? Doesn’t this whole Coriolis effect thing completely disregard any gravitational explanation given in answer to my previous questions about the wind rushing past us or about the atmosphere sticking to the Earth?

>which came first gravity or mass

Irrelevant.This isn't a chicken or egg question. You don't have gravity and then have mass and then have gravity and then have mass. Gravity and mass co-exist. Furthermore, this is a basic cosmology question, and nothing to do with the shape of the earth.

>how does a planet form itself.

A large cloud of dust pulls itself together gravitationally. Most of it falls to the center, forming a star. Some of it is thrown free, some clumps together to form planets.

>Big bang supposedly sending everything in the universe in opposite directions

Obviously some mass is close enough to attract each other. Nobody ever claimed otherwise

>vacuum is pulling

Vacuum is not a force. It does not pull.

>why don't we see our hair raise due to the moon, like we see the raising of the tides

The oceans weigh trillions of tons. And is also a fluid. Your hairs weight very little, so you never notice the difference. Yes, things weigh a little less when the moon is overhead. But you'd need either a very sensitive scale, or a very large mass in order to notice the difference.

>how come I can jump

Because you can, for a split second, provide more force than your weight. Smaller things like bugs weigh even less, so they need even less force to fly.

>we cannot simulate gravity

I think you mean we can not measure gravity of other objects on earth. But that's wrong. If you get a great big ball of lead, one that weighs several tons, it has a large enough mass to measure its gravity. Scientists did this experiment well over a hundred years ago now.

>why does the moon not orbit the sun

It does. The moon is orbiting the earth. But it's also orbiting the sun, the same way the earth is orbiting the sun. Once every year.

>at what height should a person be expected to see any curvature of the horizon

About 20,000 ft should do it, provided a clear horizon and a good field of view and good vision. Of course if the person viewing it is dishonest, it doesn't matter.

>if the horizon line is where the curvature becomes apparent...

I'm not sure I'm following. There's two different types of curvature going on here. There's the curvature looking to your left and right, which you probably won't see at sea level, but you will see at high altitude. Then there's the curvature going perpendicular to that. A ship going away and towards you. This one is easier to see because the height of the ship aids you.

Since there are two curves perpendicular to each other, you get a sphere, not a cylinder.

>why can't we feel the effects of the earth's 1,000 mph spin

First off, unless you're at the equator, you're not spinning at 1,000 mph. Second, same reason you can't feel yourself going 500 mph on a jet plane. You feel accelerations, not speeds.

>why doesn't the wind rush past us

The air is also spinning with us.

>which isn't true have you ever tried walking around on a train

It is true. If you have difficulty walking on a train, it's because the train is shifting and bouncing a little on the tracks. If the train is moving one hundred miles an hour, and you get up from your seat, you don't get blown back at 100 mph. You don't have to run 101 miles per hour to move forward.

>what about other orbits

Same thing.

>if the coriolis force is caused by the earth's spin

It's caused by the relative difference in spin. Things are moving 1000 mph at the equator, 0 mph at the poles. All points move around the sun at the same speed.

>shouldn't the atmosphere be ripped away

Of course not.
cont.
>>
>>18610297
>coriolis effects on planes

Negligible. Planes fly through the air, the air rotates along with the earth.

The rotation of the earth is more significant with rockets, however. It is easier to launch a rocket into orbit from the equator. Where that extra 1000 mph means you have to accelerate less to get up to orbital velocity. That's just rotation though, not the coriolis effect.

>doesn't this whole coriolis effect thing completely disregard gravitational explanation

the coriolis effect is present in any rotational system and is independent of gravity. Beyond that, I'm not following the question.

This is a chicken or egg question and you have failed to properly address what I've asked. Where does the gravity come from to draw together this mass when it's all meant to be flying apart from each other? Did some of this original matter grow lazy and simply stop moving so that it could pool?

>Vacuum is not a force. It does not pull.

U wot? How does your vacuum cleaner work? Here, try this simple experiment. Take a straw (any kind will do) and seal one end with your finger while sucking the air out from the other end. Feel it pulling?

>Because you can, for a split second, provide more force than your weight. Smaller things like bugs weigh even less, so they need even less force to fly.

And yet it's strong enough to keep the atmosphere safely attached to the Earth next to an infinite vacuum?

>I think you mean we can not measure gravity of other objects on earth. But that's wrong. If you get a great big ball of lead, one that weighs several tons, it has a large enough mass to measure its gravity. Scientists did this experiment well over a hundred years ago now.

You mean the one Cavendish did in his garden shed?

>It does. The moon is orbiting the earth. But it's also orbiting the sun, the same way the earth is orbiting the sun. Once every year.

No, it orbits the Earth which orbits the sun. If it was orbiting both then it would have left the Earth's orbit long ago. It wouldn't be spinning around Earth year in year out.

>About 20,000 ft should do it, provided a clear horizon and a good field of view and good vision. Of course if the person viewing it is dishonest, it doesn't matter.

How much curvature would you expect to see at this height?

There's the curvature looking to your left and right, which you probably won't see at sea level, but you will see at high altitude. Then there's the curvature going perpendicular to that. A ship going away and towards you. This one is easier to see because the height of the ship aids you.

So shouldn't I be able to see around a ship-height's worth of curvature on the horizon line?

>First off, unless you're at the equator, you're not spinning at 1,000 mph. Second, same reason you can't feel yourself going 500 mph on a jet plane. You feel accelerations, not speeds.

So if I travel north or south shouldn't I be able to sense a change in the Earth's rotation speed?

>The air is also spinning with us.

Yet is affected by the Earth's spin with the Corialis effect? Nevermind, I'll wait for you to get to that.

>It is true. If you have difficulty walking on a train, it's because the train is shifting and bouncing a little on the tracks. If the train is moving one hundred miles an hour, and you get up from your seat, you don't get blown back at 100 mph. You don't have to run 101 miles per hour to move forward.

Sure, the train isn't a perfect example. Have you tried running up and down the aisles of a train though? You can certainly tell a difference between running with and against the direction the train is travelling.

>Same thing.

Not good enough.

>It's caused by the relative difference in spin. Things are moving 1000 mph at the equator, 0 mph at the poles. All points move around the sun at the same speed.

Not true. Look up Corialis effect.

>Of course not.

Not good enough.

>It is the chicken and the egg problem
>where does the gravity come from to draw together this mass

Ah, I see where you're confused. The mass is always there, and the gravity is always there. There's no one thing creating another.

The mass of the solar system, and the gravity of the solar system, is pretty much the same as its always been. It's just denser now than it was when it was a dust cloud.

You have mass A and mass B. Each of them have their own gravity. Mass B is moving away from mass A. If mass B is fast enough, the strength of gravity between them won't be enough to cause them to come together. If they're not moving away fast enough, then they fall together and form one mass. If the difference is just right, then they orbit each other.

>how do vacuums work

The motor your vacuum cleaner creates a chamber of low pressure inside of your vacuum cleaner. There is high pressure in the atmosphere around you. The high pressure wants to go to low pressure, it goes in through the head of the vacuum, creating wind, that blows the dirt off your carpet and into the vacuum hose.

>and yet it's strong enough to keep the atmosphere next to an infinite vacuum.

You're still making the false, and rather silly mistake of thinking that vacuum is a force. It is not. If there were a force pulling on the atmosphere that were stronger than gravity, then yes, this force would pull the atmosphere off the earth. Thankfully there is no such force.

In physics, you can figure out how things move, or are going to move, by adding up all the forces and their directions and seeing which one wins. With you jumping, the force is momentarily greater than the gravity on you, so you lift off, briefly. Air molecules don't have very strong leg muscles, so they don't jump.

>Cavendish experiment

>Not true.

It takes one year for a spot on the pole to travel the 584 million miles around the sun. It takes a spot on the equator one year to move the 584 million miles around the sun. There's no substantial difference.

Now if the earth were a disk, and you were moving from mercury to earth, then you'd have an issue with the coriolis effect in this system. You're screwing up your rotational reference frames.

>>18610291
Ok fucker. Pull off the foil, its cutting of circulation to your brain, and you are gonna need it for this truth bomb im gonna drop on you. Magnetite. Magnetite forms in space. We see asteroids with magnetite and their core. Magnetite, in large enough concentrations, can attract a fuckton of rock. The rocks, under enough pressure, begin to compress, melt, etc.
an isolated asteroid, can eventually gather enough material to become a planet. So to answer your question, the mass came first. Cant have gravity without mass. And in your tiny little mind, you cant have that amount of mass, and still have "Muh 5000 year old universe". Burn your bible and retake high school. You might fucking learn something.
>>
>>18610555

>the moon doesn't orbit the sun

Of course it does. The moon goes around the sun every year. To be more precise, the moon and the earth orbit around a common center of mass. This center of mass orbits around a center of mass between the sun and the earth-moon system.

>how much curvature would you expect to see

Very little, but enough for an honest person to admit

>shouldn't you be able to see a ship's height

No, not a linear relationship

>So if I travel north to south shouldn't I sense a change

You'd have to go very fast. A bullet from a gun is only effected a few millimeters for every mile it travels at great speed. If you were in some hypothetical device teleporting you from the pole to the equator, you'd be in a lot of trouble.

>the atmosphere is effected by the coriolis system

Of course. The air at the pole is moving at 0 mph. But it's moving at 1000 mph at the equator. Now the air is a fluid and it mixes. So you get spinning weather systems because of this difference. Btw, that's one of the proofs of the round, spinning earth. It's moving 0 at the north pole, 1000 mph at the equator, and 0 at the south pole. And as it mixes, the spinning systems are inverted in the southern hemisphere.

>You can tell the difference on a moving train

No, you cannot. Everything you feel is simply side effects. A plane is a better example, you're moving far faster, but it feels the same as if you're on the ground. Barring engine vibration and turbulance.

>not good enough

Then think about it harder.
>>
>>18610581
> It's just denser now than it was when it was a dust cloud.

How was it ever a dust cloud? Shouldn't all these particles have been moving further and further away from each other since the supposed Big Bang?

>You have mass A and mass B. Each of them have their own gravity. Mass B is moving away from mass A. If mass B is fast enough, the strength of gravity between them won't be enough to cause them to come together. If they're not moving away fast enough, then they fall together and form one mass. If the difference is just right, then they orbit each other.

Sure, why not. I don't see how the strength of gravity between any of these particles could have ever overcome the ever-increasing distances between them.

>The motor your vacuum cleaner creates a chamber of low pressure inside of your vacuum cleaner. There is high pressure in the atmosphere around you. The high pressure wants to go to low pressure, it goes in through the head of the vacuum, creating wind, that blows the dirt off your carpet and into the vacuum hose.

Yes, so the low (i.e. lowest possible) pressure of space should suck the high pressure atmosphere right off the Earth, right?

>You're still making the false, and rather silly mistake of thinking that vacuum is a force. It is not.

I don't care about your definitions. Vacuum creates a pulling force. Try my experiment with the straw.

>See? I knew you were only playing dumb.

A lot of us have done a good amount of research on these topics, trying to figure out where all these bogus theories came from.
>>
>>18610727
>Shouldn't all these particles have been moving further and further away from each other since the supposed Big Bang?

No. Most things in the unverse are moving away from most other things. Some things in the universe are going in the same direction at about the same thing, and thus clump together.

>I don't see how gravity pulls things together.

Gravity is a force. It makes things accelerate together. Mass B is moving away from Mass A. But because gravity is pulling on it, the speed at which it is moving away slows down. It slows down, and slows down, and then Mass B stops. And then, because gravity is still pulling on it, it continues to accelerate towards mass A. You can observe this yourself by throwing a ball in the air.

Now as it happens, gravity diminishes over distance. So if Mass B if moving very fast, something called an "escape velocity," then the gravity will weaken faster than gravity from Mass A can slow it down, so it keeps going forever.

>so the lowest pressure of space should suck the high pressure right off the earth.

Sure. If not for gravity holding it down. Gravity is much stronger than air pressure. In fact, gravity is the reason there is any air pressure at all. If you had a magic hypothetical switch that turned off gravity, then all the atmosphere would go exploding into space. Along with the oceans and molten mantle, since that's under pressure too.

>I don't care about definitions, vacuum is a force.

Obviously you don't care about definitions, because there is no definition of force which included vacuum.

>I have done a good amount of research

Your posts indicate an opposite of this. I believe you watch a lot of very stupid youtube videos, but that's not research. If you had done even basic research, you'd have a working concept of what a force is.

>Of course it does. The moon goes around the sun every year. To be more precise, the moon and the earth orbit around a common center of mass. This center of mass orbits around a center of mass between the sun and the earth-moon system.

Think about it this way: Every time the moon orbits the Earth in a direction that is away from the sun, it is pulling against the sun's gravity. Every time it orbits the Earth towards the sun, it is being pulled towards the sun. How can it maintain a consistent orbit around the Earth under these conditions?

>Of course. The air at the pole is moving at 0 mph. But it's moving at 1000 mph at the equator. Now the air is a fluid and it mixes. So you get spinning weather systems because of this difference.

And as it mixes, the spinning systems are inverted in the southern hemisphere.

So the 1,000mph speeds are enough to cause our spinning weather systems (with the cyclones and hurricanes and whatnot), but the 70,000mph orbit of the Earth around the sun doesn't seem to affect them? Keeping in mind that the trajectory of this movement is constantly changing due to the circular nature of this orbit as well as the planet's own rotation.

Long ago, I knew of a man named Wooden Henry by the townsfolk after he lost his left leg in an accident involving the old mill, and had it replaced with a mostly wooden leg. It didn't stop him from riding his horse around day in and day out.

Wooden Henry had developed mental issues at a relatively young age after losing his leg. He told stories of leaving town on his horse and finding the edge of the world.
Nobody believed him, but he set off anyway to investigate further.
He never returned, and was never found.

The flow of fluid across a pressure gradient. The reason a suction cup sticks to a surface is because of the high pressure on the atmosphere pushing against it.

But yes, anon. You can use atmospheric pressure to lift objects. Even heavy objects like airplanes. What's your point?

>>18610778
>every time the moon is away from the sun it's pulling against the earths gravity... etc.

Yes. But the earth is also pulling on the moon with the same force. It cancels each other out. If you plot the center of the earth as it travels around the sun, it always a little curlique dance. But if you plot the center of the moon-earth system, it's a nice clean ellipse.

>so the 1000 mph speeds

Again, you're confusing actual speed with relative speed. Imagine a man standing at the equator. He's moving at 1000 mph. Now imagine a guy standing next to him. He's moving at 999.999999 mph. Not enough to notice any difference. Now consider the earth moving around the sun. All parts are moving at 700,000 mph. Or there about. So there's no difference. No difference = no effect.

Again, if the earth were a big huge disk, stretching from the sun all the way out to the distance of the earth, then coriolis effect would be huge moving away from or towards the sun. That's because if you're close to the sun, you'd be moving much slower than way out towards earth.

I'll take a stab at normie round earthers.

During the summertime in the northern hemisphere, the earth is farther away from the sun (supposedly anyway) than during the wintertime. During the summertime in the southern hemisphere, they are closer to the sun! Yet the south pole region is vastly fucking colder than the northern artic. And you can't say "oh its the angle" cause according the round earthers, either the earth is round so there is no angle change if the earth tilts, or its an "oblate spheroid" which would actually seem to make it hotter in the southern hemisphere at first glance, until you realize that if it were an oblate spheroid it would be oblate roughly all the way around, so you would have equal parts facing the sun and off into space, so its heating and cooling from the sun would equal out to that of a sphereical earth anyway. But in the case of an oblate spheroid, it would allow a larger area and angle difference, but it would work against the truth of the data, the data being its fucking colder in the southern hemisphere.

Gravity: The big bang was not a universe wide "bang", scientists and historians are just terrible at naming things. You can jump off the ground and birds can fly because when you jump you apply force against the gravity constant that pulls you back down at all times. Birds fly because they sail in the wind becaude they're not heavy. The distance between the Earth and the Sun's gravity wells are well over far enough for the moon to keep falling around the earth. Think of a marble rolling around the entrance of a trough.

The earth dwarfs us in comparison and it's hard to see any curvature from such a small line of sights of the area. The easiest way to prove the curvaturr is just looking at a departing ship and watch it disappear over the horizon. I'm guessing the altitude as was your question would be ~4000m. It's a guess. I'm not sure because I don't own a personal rocket

Are you saying a gyroscope wouldn't work on a globe earth ?
>>
>>18611217
>and you can't say "oh, it's the angle"

Sure we can. The distance from the sun has a very insignificant effect. It's the tilt that causes the seasons. The tile is pointing the northern hemisphere towards the sun in the the summer. It's pointing the southern hemisphere towards the sun in the winter (their summer).

The south pole and the north pole get equal amounts of sunlight. The only reason the south pole is colder than the north is because there's land at the south pole, and ocean at the north pole. The ocean is always mixing, so it stays more moderate in temperature than land.

This is not complicated.
>>
>>18611316
>did I miss something

Yes. Ballistics. Bullets fly a ballistic path. That is everything depends on the explosion that fires it. Everything else is inertia and air resistance.

Furthermore it travels very quickly over its entire distance.

Planes on the other hand, use the air for both its lift and it's maneuvering. Any effect on the air directly influences a plane's flight characteristics. As the air changes as it travels north or south, the plane's flight changes. All a pilot has to do is point the plane in the right direction. The plane travels slowly enough that it corrects itself for the coriolis effect along the way.
>>
>>18611448
I'm saying the gyroscope would maintain its internal position as the plane flew across the horizon. What I mean by this is, on a globe earth, even if the pilot for whatever reason doesn't have to point the nose downwards constantly to stay level with the curving ground beneath him, as the plane flew around the earth the gyroscope would "tilt backwards," falsely indicating that the plane was constantly nose diving. But it doesn't tilt backwards. Which a pretty solid reason as to why the pilot doesn't have to correct the plane's vertical position direction. Its cause the earth is flat. I remember a video somewhere of a guy wrestling a cheese wheel that had a spinning metal disc inside of it(basically a gyroscope) and he can't tip it over until the disc quits spinning, proof that it maintains it internal position regardless of what goes on outside of it. That's why they're used in planes to maintain an "artificial horizon."
>>
>>18611217
This has more to do with long term global temperatures. We're transitioning from an inter glacial period into another ice age.
The islands that are Antarctica built up ice a few million years ago for the final time and have been frozen ever since.
As for why it's so much colder, perhaps it's because of the lack of land around the Antarctic region, in relationship to the northern hemisphere.
>>
>everytime I see a flat earther:
>bitch you never been in a plane?
>>
>>18611472
I am aware that this tilt(on the round earth model) or wobble between the north pole and outside antartic edge(on the flat earth model) cause seasons. However there is significantly less landmass in the southern hemisphere compared to the northern, unless what you meant to say is that it is the land itself that allows more heat to be absorbed in the northern hemisphere. The north pole does have a much wider "swing" between temps of summer and winter, getting up to freezing and -40F in the winter. But the supposed south pole is already -18F in their summer, and -76F in their winter. Its always colder in the southern hemisphere on average. Unless there is a desert next door.

How can the sun possibly illuminate the bottoms of clouds on the flat Earth model?

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


there are thousands of examples but this one is easy to do at home.
>>
>>18611554
Simple. Stand next to a long wall. Now say said wall ends at a certain distance. This shall represent the clouds. Now have someone go behind that wall with a flashlight. This will be our sun above the clouds. Even if your friend stays on that side of the wall, no matter how far away he is from it, and he continues to walk in the direction you're facing, at some point in the distance he will be seen beyond where the wall ends in front of you. Simple line of sight shows this. Another example would be if you had your sun visor down while driving at night, and you drove under a street lamp in reverse, at some point you would be able to see that street lamp in the distance in front of you, even if it is 30ft in the air above you.

I'm tired of this. You admit that a high pressure system will give way to a low pressure system but then you do everything you can to deny that the infinite vacuum of space should have any effect on our atmosphere.

You talk about relative speed versus actual speed as though speed in itself is meaningless.

I think I've done my job presenting some of the more glaring holes in the globalist's universal framework. I leave it up to the reader to decide whether you've answered my questions sufficiently. If you believe this horseshit or just take his word for it cause his answers sound all sciency, all the best to you.

Umm, I'm sorry let me fix my first example. Two walls running parallel, with you between them. Now have your friend walk on the outside of left wall. At a certain distance, you will see him carrying his light. At a certain farther distance, said light will reflect enough to light the "underside" of said wall. So my analogy is perfect with a ground and clouds, just with a dimmer light source. And in the second example, of course its a light source. Wtf do you think the sun is?

>There is signifcantly less land mass in the southern hemisphere than the northern

Sure. But at the poles, there's an ocean at the north and land in the south, so the south pole's going to be a lot colder. In the tropic regions, there will also be colder average temperatures because there is less land than the north. The oceans are a moderating factor.
>>
>>18611667
>as though speed itself is meaningless

In terms of the coriolis effect, yes. Absolute speed is absolutely meaningless. What matters is the difference. Same with feeling speed. If you're in a train going a hundred thousand miles an hour, you'll never feel the speed. You feel changes in speed.

>A high pressure system will give way to a low pressure system.

Yes. Unless there's some force acting on the high pressure. Like the walls of a balloon. Or gravity.

>I want to look smart

Then you're failing miserably.
>>
Yes, you're basically restating what's already been said. So for the sake of this conversation, allow my to reiterate my original point. During the southern hemispheres summer, they are significantly closer to the sun than the northern hemisphere is during its summer due to the supposed orbit of the earth around the sun. Which is why I said it doesn't make sense why the southern hemisphere is on average colder. Much colder the further south you go. So my original point stands, that the closer to a radiant heat source, whether that be an electric heater or the sun, I should get warmer. But in the globe earth theory case, it doesn't. So the only thing that can partly save this problem is there is less land in the southern hemisphere. But I hold my ground and say that shouldn't make as much of a difference as it does, due to the closeness of the earth to the sun during that time of the year. If anything it should be equal or hotter than the north, not colder.

>>18611886

I'm reiterating what I'm saying because you're still apparently too thick to get it.

The differences in distances to the sun are irrelevant. You can for practical purposes ignore it completely.

What we've got left is the tilt of the earth. Now that's a constant. The Southern hemisphere points towards the sun in the true winter and away in the true summer.

The southern hemisphere gets the same amount of daylight and night time that the northern hemisphere gets, just at opposite time of the year. During the day things heat up, during the night things cool off. When nights are long, winter comes and it gets cold, when the days are long, summer comes and get things warm.

In the Southern hemisphere, in the tropics, where things are warm year round, there is more ocean than land. Thus things are cooler in the southern hemisphere in the tropics, on average, at the same latitudes. All that cool sea breeze.

Now moving onto the polar regions, which are cold all year round. In this case there is more land in the polar regions than in the northern hemisphere. Land gets colder in the polar regions than the ocean does. Again because the ocean mixes but land does. So even in the local summer time, when there's lots of sun, it still stays very cold, as opposed to the north where there's all those ocean currents mixing.

Less land in the tropics, and more land at the polar regions both contribute to the southern hemisphere being cooler. On average.

Again, none of this is complicated, nor should it be hard to understand.
>>
>>18611916
You can't weasel your way around the fact that according to the textbooks the sun is -closer- to the southern hemisphere during its summer due to the earths orbit around the sun. It should be hotter, not colder. So, no you can't ignore it completely. Or at all. If you think that I can stand closer to a radiant heat source and not get warmer, you're going to have to prove it. Give me an example where an object gets closer to something emitting light or heat and it gets colder. The amount of land above equator plus the closer distance to the sun during north winter does not equal the amount if discrepancy in temperatures.
>>
>>18611853
>Absolute speed is absolutely meaningless.

Yes, to believe we're travelling the speeds you say we're travelling, speed really does lose all meaning. Never mind that we're spinning and corkscrewing and corkscrewing again. According to you, it's all consistent to the point of non-existence.

>Yes. Unless there's some force acting on the high pressure. Like the walls of a balloon. Or gravity.

Yes, like the walls of a balloon. Note that this is the only kind of example of maintaining unequally pressured environments side-by-side without them naturally equalizing you'll ever find on Earth, with a barrier between them. Of course, your model of the universe is evidence itself for someone like you.

>Then you're failing miserably.

And here's a perfect example of what you've been doing this entire time: cherry picking sections of my questions and arguments so that you can make a semi-decent sounding response. I'm done with you. The reader can decide whether you've actually answered any of my questions if they're thoughtful enough to make their own decisions.

None of these explanations have been simple. There is nothing simple about the globe Earth hypothesis. It's proponents have been dreaming up more and more convoluted explanations for its glaring errors for centuries now, they have bullshitting down to a fine art.

Except that flying around the world isn't as hard as it seems. In the old days you would use a compass and fly east with north to your left, and make slight corrections the whole trip. Not enough to notice when you go as slow as those old planes did. In modern times, its easy enough to look at flight patterns and know somethings up. Sure, you could say that a trip from south america would stop in England on its way to Australia, because of a large amount of people on board would probably being going there, even if it is out of the way. On a flat earth map however, its a straight shot from one side the the other with a stop in europe in the middle with no deviation. As for ship navigation, there was a boat that sailed around anartica by James Cook, and found it sailed a whopping 60,000 miles. Doesn't work on a globe earth. Works fine navigating an anartic ice wall on the outside of a flat earth map. Sure a modern boat could do it, but they'll prob use GPS(ground based repeater stations on flat earth), or could just "claim" they circumnavigated anartica to its passengers and then head north, therefore I trust in oldschool explorers even if their maps tend to be a little skewed. I think he would know if he went 60000 miles via the stars. You cant fuck up that bad.

Except when you turn. People always forget that. While it may be true for going straight, at some point you'll turn when flying or otherwise moving at a certain rate of speed. When you do that, you will notice a difference like walking on a marry go round. Surely jet pilots would feel it. Never heard of any of them complain about it though. That's why they made up this coriolis effect and say it applies to only bullets, even if humans should be able to feel it too. Cause regular people don't have access to a SR-71 Blackbird to test it. So they just take it as fact. Because most people are sheep. Research "Airy's failure." The earth is -not- moving. The sky above us is.
>>
>>18612748
Yeah no shit you feel a turn, it's a change in velocity. But the force of earth's turn is negligible compared to the other forces we have acting on us like gravity, buoyancy, friction, normal. You also forget how Damn MASSIVE the thing is, you'd probably feel some turn standing on a rotating basketball that had the gravitational force of the earth, because at that point the subtle change in velocity is no longer negligible.

>>18612764
Don't tell me how it's negligible, then turn around and tell me how massive it is. The equator spins at 1000mph, or approx 16 miles per SECOND, under your feet. So everyone in the U.S. is spinning at somewhere near 7-12 at least. But yet I can feel a 3mph wind push my van while cruising at 55mph, but can't notice a marry go round effect when turning a curve with the earth rotating at about 12 mpS below my feet. I'm not buying it. Coriolis effect doesn't exist, or if it does its something else, guessing by how slight its effects are. But as far as a rotating earth beneath me, I'm going to need proof that refutes the regular data that scientists and everyone else regulary claim often, that being a 1000mph spinning equator, which I just used against round earthers to prove them wrong using their own data.

The difference in distance is trivial. The earth only gets a tiny amount more sunlight at its perihelion as it does at its apihelion.

However, the difference due to the tilt of the earth is very, very significant.

Twenty four hours a day of sunlight is going to be a lot warmer than twenty four hours a day of night.

Tilt wins.

100 mph is a speed, not a turn. Turns are acceleration. If you were in a car going at 100 mph and did a very sharp turn, then yes you'd feel it. If you did a very very slow turn, one that takes 24 hours to complete, you would not.

We could also talk about freefall and orbits, but you're still confused on the differences between velocity and acceleration, so I don't think you're read for that yet.

>this is better explained by density

It is not.

>the particles are lighter

A molecule of nitrogen weighs the same at high altitude as it does low altitude.

>less affected by earth's gravity

The difference in gravity is negligible between sea level and mountain tops.

It is true that air is less dense at high altitude.

This is because air molecules have mass. and gravity pulls them down. However, the sun heats the air, which makes air molecules bounce around a lot. Some of them bounce way up higher than the mountain tops, but not most of them. They come falling back down to the ground.

If not for the sun, all the air molecules would be down on the ground. But we're getting into the kinetic theory of gases, which is probably also beyond your grade level.

>how can the anywhere on earth get 24 hours of night.

Quite simple. The same way it gets 24 hours of day. The earth's orbit is tilted. And since it's also round, then the sun stays below the horizon for twenty four hours. This begins to happen at the arctic circle and antarctic circle. At the poles they get six months of darkness and six months of light. Places south of the arctic circle have very long nights and very short days in the winter. You have noticed this, have you not?

>unless it's rotation matches its orbit the same way the moon only shows one side


No, if that were the case, one side would be permanently night, the other would be permanently day.

Honestly this entire argument is really fucking stupid cause it could be solved relatively easily but there's always excuses as to why.

Now look at the responses he got
>>18610373 >>18611428 >>18611738

Basically a Merry-go-round of, "well why dont YOU do it tough guy?"

Needless to say, that the earth being round has a myriad of information that proves how its supposed to work, (the math checks out folks, take a trigonometry course, please).

Now, you could say "well fuck you man, that math is fake and its been passed as truth for so long that you think its real now and it renders this part of your argument useless". Fair enough, lets say we're all wrong and we've been indoctrinated to the point that you must free us from our shackles and show us the way. You could take it upon yourselves to make the most important discovery of the 21th Century a reality as a community, but instead you say "whoa man fuck you, why don't you do it? (even though if you do it and post pics, I won't believe it and think its Photoshop unless I myself do it).

TLDR: The only way to prove this shit (to Flat Earthers), is to actually go to the edge and document it, but flat earth people always have excuses to not do it even though it would be the greatest discovery in mankind's history and Round Earth people don't have an incentive cause everything else in our model already proves it.

It doesn't say specifically that succinctly, but it traces the geneology of everybody from Adam to King Solomon, and gives their ages, so you can just count it all up and you get 4004 BC.

I'm just saying that you should feel an effect of being slung when you go around a curve more one way than the other way if the earth is rotating.

>>18612867
Yea I know you keep saying that. And you also fail to show me why using round earth logic I don't feel a swing when making a turn, everyone here is evading this very thorn in their side. Its like saying a figure skater slows down when they stick out there arms while spinning, but actually only they can do that, so you can't feel it if you try but its true even if we can't back up what were saying just trust us your head is thick. I'm not buying it.

And so the coriolis effect only affects spinning objects huh? Never heard that one.

>>18612869
I have researched it. And if you had, you would know that he was looking for a "moving aether." He did not find a "moving aether." And what he also found, is that based on the interaction of light coming down a telescope barrel filled with water, that the earth is in fact "not moving." And that it was the stars overhead that were. This did not prove that an either does not exist, but did prove that either the earth is stationary or the earth and the aether are stationary together.

>>18612880
I agree the distance is trivial. Its about 5% closer and the the northern hemisphere contains about 18% more landmass. But the tilt actually works against everyone on here's argument, because it also tilts the southern hemisphere towards the sun when it is closer to the sun. And the northern hemisphere towards it when its farther away. So the tilt would eventually equal out and it shouldn't make that much of a difference. Idk wtf you're talking about with the 24 hour thing..
>>
>>18612914
Umm... Well to be honest you've never actually seen any of that stuff. You can't honestly even say that the other planets up in the sky or AKA "wandering stars" are even like earth at all. You're assuming that the dots in the sky are like earth. For all you know they could be pin pricks that allow light from the next flat earth system above us. Or they could be the actual projectors that make this holographic world seem real. Idk. We flat earthers do not pretend that we do know. But what we do know is 90% of the shit we've been taught is wrong, and everything that seems unanswerable so far at least on my journey is in fact answerable, just not with using round earth logic. Round earthers expect everything to match up to their worldview(kek) when it is in fact a damn hood possibility that their worldview is wrong, and taught to them at birth.

Why is flat-earth still being argued? Are you retards actually trying to debunk shit that's been confirmed by scientists over the course of several centuries?

Debate all you want, all planets are spheres or at least spherical to some degree in shape.

Any validity any of you true flat-earth'ers have hoped to gain is now impossible to achieve due to just about every single last one of you bringing up points that are easy to debunk or destroy with counterclaims.

Even a child could tell you why and how the Earth isn't flat, it simply makes no sense.

You know what? Since so many of you are fixated on this concept, please draw me a map and diagram of what you believe the Earth supposedly looks like.

Obviously it cannot be a plate of some sort, because if this were true then we could drill through the Earth, or find an edge to it.

So please, don't humor me, but CONVINCE me. Show me what makes you people believe in this so-called flat earth, I'm VERY curious but note I will be passive-aggressive due to how asinine this topic is.

Thanks in advance.
>>
>>18614350
Nothing more revolting than someone who produces insults instead of meaningful discussion. Gtfo and kys. All you see with your telescope is dots, and some dots with color. Don't give me NASA photos. They're not trusted even among non flat earthers.

>>18614368
No sense being passive aggressive. Clearly mainstream science and beleifs do not have the final say. Otherwise we wouldn't be having this discussion. Flat earthers poke holes in round earth theory, most of which mainstream science and thought processes can't find a valid answer for. Then provide answers for them by saying the earth is flat. But a typical response by round earthers is when you give a valid reason for the way something is, that tears them up inside because it messes up more than one thing simultaneously. Example. Some flat earthers believe in a firmament. Round earthers then ask well what about satellites. There are no satellites. But that is something only a few of them can even fathom, and they usually resort to insults or the like. Better question, if there are no satellites, what have they been feeding you your whole life with these fake images and why have they been doing it? That's a better question.
>>
>>18614288
>I don't feel a swing when making a turn

Not when you're in orbit, or turning around the earth, no. The only force acting on you is gravity. Other than the normal force, due to the force of gravity acting on whatever part of you is touching the ground, there is no external contact force.

If you're in a car and you turn a corner, you feel it because the seat of the car is pushing on you, and the side of the car is pushing on you, and it's providing pressure on your nerves that you feel. Also to some extent there's fluid in your ear that helps you know you're turning, and a large psychological effect from seeing the outside world turn.

All this adds up to "I feel myself turning." WIth gravity, every single part of you is being acted on at the same time, with the same force, so you never notice it.

Nobody's evading anything, the answer is obvious.

If you'd like to simulate it. Sit in an office chair, and turn around once over the course of 24 hours. Make notes on how you feel.

>figure skater slowing down

Now you're talking about the conservation of angular momentum, a completely unrelated topic and nothing to do with "feelings."

Also, this whole "I can't feel a spin, that means we're not spinning" thing is just a reiteration of the "Well the earth looks flat from where I am, that means it is flat" argument. Or for that matter, "I can't see mommy when she plays peakaboo with me, that means she really vanishes." It's absurd.

>the coriolis effect only affects spinning objects

Of course it does. The coriolis effect is a direct result of a rotating system. The earth, for example. This is a very fundamental thing.

>I have researched it

If that's true, then you're lying when you claim it proves a stationary earth. I think probably it's a bit of both, you haven't researched it, and you're being dishonest.

>it proved the earth was stationary

It did not. Airy never made that claim.

>I don't know how the tilt of the earth works or the seasons

This does not surprise me. Here, because you are so stupid, I've drawn you a picture.

This is the earth in winter. The north pole is tilted away from the sun. All points north of the red line experience 24 hours or more of night. More the further north you go. All points south of the green line experience 24 hours or more of sunlight.

All points north of the equator experience more night time than day time. This makes it cold. All points south of the equator experience more day time than night.

This is how seasons work.

This is one of the many proofs of the round, spinning earth.

You should already know this material, simply by going outside of your house from time to time and looking at the sky.

If Earth is flat then moderrn sciences are wrong on everything thus all the official story regarding our origin/purpose/creator is void.
People will then start to research who they are, where they live and what they're supposed to do here. The fundamental questions of life.
>>

But we already do all that constantly.
We still search knowledge endlessly.
And it just happens that we came to a conclusion that the earth is a planet shaped like a globe.
If someone loses faith in god due to the shape of our homeland he or she didn't have much faith to begin with.
Im not really qualified to absolutely 100% state the earth is a globe but to me it makes more sense than a flat planet.
A flat planet leaves too many unanswered questions behind while a globe one does not.
And ibdont see anything wrong with that.

I will not discuss mindless discussion. Yes it does have to do with feeling, as that's a sense, and yes angular momentum stands true in my argument, not for yours. If you want to tell me that you can drive a car at 60mph around with a surface beneath you moving at 10mp/second, and not feel a g force stronger when turn certain directions, then discussing this with you is pointless. Objects in orbit obviously do not count, as they ate not connected to the ground.

I will not discuss the corilois effect further. The data behind it poor at best when it comes to actual experiments.

Yes I researched airys failure. And those are my words based on looking at what his experiment concluded, not his. All he knew is that if there was an aether it wasn't moving.

Or that perhaps there is more land beyond the anartic ice wall with more suns. Its funny how the moment man was able to travel long distances the earth was declared a globe, when it conveniently hides the ice wall as a single continent on the bottom of the globe model and its disastrously cold there so why would anyone go there? Another method of containment is what it is, no different from saying you'll fall off the earth.

Pretty sure that at least the Bible, Vedas, Quran describe a flat Earth. It seems more logical to say that it is if you believe the globe that you don't have much faith.

by the difference of the size between the first few frames and the last ones, there is no need for a filter. There is some flare because this is the Sun, a very bright orb, but the delta is so huge that your answer is laughable.
However the same experiment can be made with the Moon without any glare this time.

Well but the size of the sun stays the same during the day, implying it's moving at the same speed. Yet in the last 15. min of sundown it must suddenly accelerate in order to account for the sudden and dramatic size change, doesn't it?

And where is it actually going? Under the flat earth?
>>
>>18614757
You green text me without green texting WHY I said that. Everyone else here seems to think telling me that just because I can't feel a spin doesn't mean its not there, but then continue to tell me it affects certain objects in the air, but not all. So the coriolis effect affects ballistics, but not high speed jets or me? Artificial horizon gyroscopes mysteriously need no adjustment on planes and jets? Flight paths mysteriously stop at locations that seem WAY off course on a globe, but b-line shot on flat model? No one except NASA can see other globe earth like planets? Airy detects the lack of a moving aether and accidentally proves the earth has either no rotation or has a stuck aether field along side it?
Speaking of angular momentum, why do satellites and planes not fall west as the earth spins east when they go up into the atmosphere? Logically it would follow that if the coriolis effect was real, then its effect would apply to flying objects as well. Case in point, a bullet traveling at 1000mph east at equator fired north, should travel east the further north it goes. This is the coriolis effect. But for some reason a plane traveling in any direction from equator moving 1000mph east does not experience this no matter how high up it travels. Anyone with common sense can tell you that the further up you go, the greater the distance between you and the axis of the earth, which mean you have to travel a larger circumference to get anywhere and if you fly up and "disconnect" with the ground below you, and account for the 1000mph east rotation, you will travel net west. Because you haven't increased your eastward speed, and because you increased your height so you're traveling a greater circumference. Without increasing eastward speed, you "lag" behind the rotation of the earth the further up you go. And this simply doesn't happen. I'm not a troll but I am armed to the teeth with facts.

Ok, let's for with this.
If the sun is really that small and hanging so deep, why don't you just fly a drone with a camera around?

Now is the sun at least a proper Globle? And in your theory, what's the diameter of the sun? Can be big at al, judging by the size of the birds.
>>
>>18614828
>Without green texting why I said it

You made a claim. I proved your claim false. No ifs, and or buts.

>the coriolis effect affects me?

If you move fast enough, you will feel the the coirolis effect. Airplanes constantly make all sorts of adjustments, which naturally compensate for the coriolis affect anyway.

>flight paths mysteriously stop at locations way off course on the globe but b-line shot on flat model

No. This doesn't happen. Flight paths make perfect sense on a globe. They do not on a flat earth model. On a flat earth model, if you want to go from Los Angeles to Sydney, you would head northwest. This is not the path flights take to get to Sydney.

The north polar projection map that flat earthers co-opted for their model of the flat earth does accurately represent most flight paths in the northern hemisphere. Flights in the southern hemisphere make no sense in this model.

>speaking of angular momentum, why do satellites and planes not fall west as the earth spins

This has nothing to do with angular momentum. Airplanes are in the air, the air spins with the earth. An airplane flying over the equator going east is going its airspeed, plus 1000 mph. Going west it's 1000 mph minus its airspeed.

Satellites do not set in the west because they are going towards the east considerably faster. Most of them, anyway. Things like the moon and sun and stars set in the west because they are very far away and essentially "stationary" to our rotational reference frame. I'm not sure if you understand what rotational reference frame means. You clearly don't know what angular momentum means.

>for some reason a plane does not experience this coriolis force

It does, it simply doesn't need to correct for it. AIrplanes ride and maneuver in the atmosphere, and the atmosphere does all the correcting for it.

If the earth had no atmosphere, and if airplanes could fly without an atmosphere, the coriolis effect would be a real issue that it would have to very carefully correct for.

>this simply doesn't happen

No, it does. If you had a magic levitation machine, and you went up straight up from the equator, the earth would turn underneath you and you'd lag behind as you describe.

I suppose you have an explanation as to what gravity "is?" Round earthers don't know either. They think it keeps the sun together, a supposed ball hydrogen that somehow coagulated and didn't fly off into the places in space with the smallest pressures were located like all floating gases do. Before modern science came along, astronomers believed the sun to be a ball of calcium ferrite. Its an electrode.

Oh I forgot the atmosphere is not a medium for refraction. My bad. Its not like water at all. At least, its not like water in an square tank. Wait, oh it is completely like that, and not in a square tank..So in other words, in this case distance does equal refraction, and the medium can even allow for other things to happens because of dust, atmospheric pressures, and distance. Because its not in a tank. I rest my case.
>>
>>18615190

What the hell are you babbling about? The distance of an object does not change the way it refracts. How the hell would it? Do you you honestly believe pulling the laser back but keeping it pointed in the same exact direction is going to change the way the light refracts?

It would indeed change where the laser would appear to an observer, due to refraction, reflection, and the distance. But we're not taking about a laser, were talking about a glowing circle in the sky, that is probably above the atmosphere, outside of our atmospheric "tank" if you will. If you can't see what I mean by the reflection and refraction causing the light source to disappear over the horizon, I'm afraid I can't really explain it too well. Maybe someone else can sorry.

>do you know what gravity is?

Yes. It's a force, a property of matter, that attracts all matter together.

The force of this gravity is the gravitational constant, times the product of any two masses, over the square of the distance between them.

I could go on, but that's unnecessary. This definition describes the fall of objects on the earth, the shape of the earth, and the motion of the planets.

>you know other people are watching this

Yes, and if they're not retarded, the'll know I'm right.

>somehow coagulated

Yes. Due to gravity. Hydrogen has mass. A lot of hydrogen has a lot of gravity, like the sun.

No they didn't. You're cribbing this from Electric Universe, a kook theory up there with ancient aleums

How far away do you think it is? I mean according to your picture, if you converge the lines, it's just behind that cloud. So maybe a thousand feet up?

But if you look at this picture, it looks like the sun is just behind those leaves. So maybe ten feet up? twenty?

Fair enough I think the VERY FIRST thing Flat Earth supporters need to do is nail down these tricky distances. Yes it can take time, but it something ANYONE can do and will forward the cause of toppling the largest conspiracy in the history of humanity.

I have an experiment. I need volunteers from Australia and from France. We want to take some accurate measurements across the latitudes of the Earth. Later we'll need theodolites and trig, but for the rough first experiment just make sure you have a vehicle whose odometer is running right.

The "official" distances from Perth-Sydney and Paris-Orendburg are listed in pic. I chose these places due to their relatively similar positions in terms of distance away from the north pole. As you can see on the pic, these distances are clearly not the same. So either this map is tragically wrong, or the "official" distances are lies.

SO!!

Who's willing to take a drive and record some numbers!?

you just gave yourself, shill because all these links point to "anonymous", there is no way you know which are mine which are not except if you are a professional troll.
>>
>>18613589

I guess I'm not done with you then. Listen, I know that you're quite smart and knowledgeable and I'll even afford you the possibility that you're not a dirty soulless shill. I have a very intelligent friend who makes similar arguments to you, simply unable to comprehend the discrepancies in his logic that I point out. I do however get a strong sense that you're being deliberately misleading with your responses and I really don't like that. You side-step my arguments which is incredibly frustrating and makes it difficult to maintain any debate with you. Because you're arguing on the side of the institution of scientific academia, this gives you an air of authority that I know will sway those who do not like to think for themselves. But, whatever. I don't care what the unthinking think.

>100 mph is a speed, not a turn. Turns are acceleration. If you were in a car going at 100 mph and did a very sharp turn, then yes you'd feel it. If you did a very very slow turn, one that takes 24 hours to complete, you would not.

Here you're using semantics to undermine my intelligence in the eyes of others while failing to properly answer my question. I wasn't just talking about the Earth's rotation, I was talking about its rotation in combination with its orbit around the Sun. And it's not a slow turn, the turn in question would be at a speed of around 67,000mph. This turn in fact takes a year to complete but that's irrelevant to the speed at which we are supposed to be moving. My point here was that as we zoom around the Sun at these breakneck speeds, our additional (supposed) rotation means that the direction of this inertial force is in constant flux, therefore we should be well aware of it.

>A molecule of nitrogen weighs the same at high altitude as it does low altitude.

Again you're being misleading. I said that the particles were lighter the further up you went, not that being higher was what made them lighter. Lets say you have a sealed room filled with a mix of helium and oxygen. Do you think they'd remain in equal distribution? Of course not, because helium is lighter than oxygen so it rises above it.

>The difference in gravity is negligible between sea level and mountain tops.

Deliberately misleading. Mountain tops? What, like Everest which is only 5 1/2 miles high? What about the exosphere at around 700km?

>This is because air molecules have mass. and gravity pulls them down. However, the sun heats the air, which makes air molecules bounce around a lot. Some of them bounce way up higher than the mountain tops, but not most of them. They come falling back down to the ground.

Sure buddy, it's not at all because a denser substances will sink lower than a substance that is less dense.

>Quite simple. The same way it gets 24 hours of day. The earth's orbit is tilted. And since it's also round, then the sun stays below the horizon for twenty four hours. This begins to happen at the arctic circle and antarctic circle. At the poles they get six months of darkness and six months of light. Places south of the arctic circle have very long nights and very short days in the winter. You have noticed this, have you not?

Okay, I'll concede this point. I didn't think that one through.

>These all got answered.

I wasn't talking to you.
>>
>>18614480

>If you'd like to simulate it. Sit in an office chair, and turn around once over the course of 24 hours. Make notes on how you feel.

That would be a terrible simulation. First of all, there's a big difference between rotating and sitting at the edge of a circle (or sphere) that is rotating. Sitting on a the edge of a carousel would be a much better simulation. Secondly, since you are scaling down the size of the object that is rotating, you would have to scale up the speed at which it was rotating, lets say to 1,000mph. Of course, we you wont have "muh gravity" to save you from flying off from this ride.

Now let's get real here for a second because you've been resting the laurels of your car analogy until now. Traveling in a straight line and being spun around are two completely different things. Even without the added complications of the Earth's orbit around the Sun and the Sun's orbit around the Galaxy, you fail to admit the nature of centrifugal force. If you're spinning around in a circular motion then your inertia is constantly being directed away from the circle of our spin. At every moment. You are being launched forwards while the circle curves away from this trajectory, leaving you shit out luck if you were planning on staying on board.

>>18615366
1. Objects that go up don't land further west when they come back down despite the fact by increasing height they increase circumference they have to travel.
2. I cant feel any additional gforce to any effect, despite driving a car and making turns with the ground moving 15 miles per second underneath me. Like trying to walk on a tilt a whirl.
3. Suns rays make spots on the ground, and with triangulation, show the sun is not 93 mil miles away.
4. Objects do no "tilt" away as they go behind the horizon.
5. Artificial horizon indicator is a gyroscope in a plane indicating up/down position when flying, but does not tilt backwards despite flying around the globe,despite the plane rotating as it goes around a spherical earth.
6. (Extra just for you) on a spherical earth, the atmosphere is always convex in relation to the sun. But unlike a convex lens it does not have another half. So if it were really spherical the land at the equator would be molten rock from the suns rays being focused.
>>18615288
Funny I didn't ask you. You still cannot explain what gravity "is" anymore than you can explain magnetism. Science doesn't know either so stop pretending. All you know is objects fall, and supposedly have a small attraction to each other in space, a place you have never been. I have no idea what the electric universe is, and that's not where I read about it. But I must ask, what charges do you mean? Last I checked, the sun spewing off charged particles and dust through space is a round earth theory, and does not apply to flat earthers. I did say it was an electrode, probably positive since the earth is negatively charged with a good source of electrons, but hey I'm guessing here. For all I know its AC in nature. But in the flat earth realm we are making bullshit discussions about a massive objects that inexplicably float and emit light, I'm not saying I know how it works. I'm just saying its not a ball of gas 93 mil miles away.

>>18615590
Those flights "disappear off radar and gps" after leaving the station. Its a hood point for round earthers, but I wanna see someone book it and fly it. Otherwise its bs, put there to coverup the fact that you can't really do it.

The stars, multiple accounts talk about how they rise from the northeast and set in the northwest in the northern hemisphere. Then the further south you go, they still do that, they do not rise from the southeast and set in the southwest while facing the equator from the southern hemisphere. I forget the guys name (James cook?) But he was searching for the southern pole star, the southern cross. He even said you can't see it from everywhere in the southern hemisphere and claimed it was bullshit.
>>
>>18615599
Don't worry, it's a far nicer worldview to have. Think Lord of the Rings rather than Star Wars. Believe me, there's would be nothing cool about space travel. You can explore infinite worlds right here without ever leaving the Terra Firma (although it might help if you had an airplane).
>>
>>18615600
Say you're in a really big hall with pictures all over the ceiling. If the hall were big enough (and the Earth is certainly big enough for this) you could see the pictures up one end of the hall but not the other until you walked across it. Then you wouldn't be able to see the pictures you were looking at when you started.
>>
>>18615598
>>18615606
You know, I think next time I make one of these (what's the post limit these days anyway? 400?) I'll just focus on the worldview aspect of flat earth vs the globe.

>>
>>18615604
Take a look at this

>>18614872

So it's clearly possible to book the flights.
As for your claim that they disappear from radar, flight tracker seems to work just fine. please proof your statement.

As for the stars, how come I can't see the North Star on the southern Hemisphere or the Souther Cross in the Northern?

Shouldn't I be able to see all the stars from every point of the disc? How do celestial dynamics work on a flat earth?

>>18615591
You're welcome. Been a long ride.

Thank you. Speaking of James cook....
>>18615604
I meant to say it was James cook that circumnavigated anartica, went a whopping 50,000 miles. WAY more than the circumference of an entire round earth. But I think it was also him that was searching for the southern cross, i all have to double check.....

Ok, but how come I can see the same stars if I am in Australia, South Africa or South America?

Shouldn't I be able to see completely different stars on these locations?
>>
>>18615620
I didn't say it was impossible. I said I want to see someone do it. Flight tracker makes assumptions and guesses when the data is missing. As for the stars, the same reason the sun disappears at a certain distance. While a few believe it is a disc, I do not. I think it extends infinitely. Therefore, no, at a certain point the stars disappear as well.
>>
>>18615623
Everything that would disprove your flat earth theory gets turned down as fake or fabricated evidence. How come you put so much trust in James Cook?

I just want to know how you guys explain that I can see different stars on the Southern Hemisphere than on the northern.

I get want you are trying to say, if I move further away from the hub I'll see a difference ceiling. But how come this ceiling looks the same in South Africa, Australia and South America? If the earth was flat that shouldn't work.

Because the stars rotate? Even in the globe model they rotate (well, you say it's us who rotates but whatever).

Because he kept notes and documented his journey. I'm not sure if it was him who noticed you cant always see the southern cross at the same latitude below equator/noticed the stars still only rotate around the north pole in the south though. But simply google James cook circumnavigates anartics. He was a famous explorer that worked for the British I believe..

Yes you can see the the Souther cross from pretty much everywhere in the Souther hemisphere.

Because James Cook was an explorer and discoverer of new worlds while "Car" Sagan was a pop scientist who wrote simplified versions of other people's work? I fucking hate pop scientists. Sagan, Tyson, Nye, Dawkins and most especially Brian Cox that smarmy fucking prick. None of them can write for shit and people worship them just because they know their names and can pretend to be smart by saying how much the love them at parties because "I love science, I don't care if that makes me a nerd".

James Cook did not sail around Antarcitica for 50,000 miles. That was the sum total distance he travelled on his entire voyage, back and forth across the pacific twice, across the Indian ocean, twice, up and down the Atlantic going from Great Britain around cape horn and the cape of good hope.

Captain Cook was a good navigator, a firm believer in the round spinning earth, and would have laughed in your face for being so ignorant about it.

We can all agree that we were "taught" enough about the globe theory.

Him being a nut doesn't discredit him. Most of what I quoted was what he quoted of other people and their experiences trying to navigate below the equator. The further south you go, the further your ships position will be skewed versus a map. He goes into this extensively. This being using celestial navigation, not self correcting digital equipment designed to hide the truth.
>>18616340
Captain Cook sailed over 60000 miles trying to just find anarctica. You're right. But what about the challenger expedition? They sailed a whopping 69000 and DID circumnavigate Antarctica. Granted they made stops elsewhere, but that's over 3X the distance around the globe! And they weren't circumnavigating the equator, or aka a "great circle," so the distance was obviously waaaaaaaaaay less than that on a globe model. From what I can find online, anartica lies inside the 60th south latitude. So for comparison, it should be similar to 60 north latitude. Been a while since I had trig, but if you look for it online, the 60th north latitude is a little less than 11,000 miles. So you have an even bigger problem. Switch over to using nautical miles for the equator's circumference and the problem gets even BIGGER.
>>
>>18616442
>Bedford experiment
Was an experiment looking for the curve of the Earth. That is decidedly not the point of my experiment.

It's very simple, we're just taking rough measurements right now. All it takes is driving in a car with a working odometer. Yet not a single volunteer, and the only response is trying to shift into a red herring.

Yes, it does. He was a loony that made up a bunch of shit. Like a bum on a street corner ranting about time travelers and time cubes.

>The further south you go the further your ships position will be skewed vs. a map

If you're using the polar azimuthal projection map, the one flat earthers use for a model, this is true. If you're using a globe, this is not true. Everything matches perfectly. It is ideal for navigation.

>Cook sailed over 60,000 miles trying to find antarctica

No. Cook was attempting to circumnavigate antarctica as closely as he safely could, as well as discovery a number of south pacific islands. Here's his route. He travels up and down the Atlantic Ocean, around Antarctica, and criss crossed all around the South Pacific. His total voyage was about 60,000 miles. If the flat earth model were correct, this would have been hundreds of thousands of miles.

If you were really interested in Captain Cook, these are things you would have known. Furthermore, while it's true Cook's map of the area wasn't accurate, that's because the islands hadn't been discovered yet. He was the guy discovering him. His model of the earth, however, that it was round, was accurate. In fact, one of the major breakthroughs of Cook's second voyage was his use of a new and reliable way to measure longitude. Measuring longitude in the southern hemisphere debunks the flat earth model. In the round earth model, lines of longitude in the southern hemisphere get closer together the further south you go. On the flat earth model they get wider. In reality, they get closer.

The challenger expedition was something else entirely, didn't circumnavigate Antarctica, and crisscrossed even more of hte ocean.

Maybe you should look at the evidence of why it isn't round, your case would never last in a court of law gtfo.

Denying solid evidence simply because "thats crazy and not what everyone else thinks or says"

Is insane, (get help) it is no secret that the government and federal agencies have been behind numerous scandals and repeatedly lie to the public. (look it up yourself seeming as you like to denies anything infront of you I won't waste my time uploading it it's also easy to find).

I suggest you start doing research instead of being a waste of space living in your moms basement.

Come on guys, if there is no Antarctica, where do all the Nazi Ufos come from?

>>18617463
Don't you have any better arguments than just insulting others?

The earth I flat. I really think we provided anybody who might still doubt his with a number of really solid, scientific evidence.

As for why there is a conspiracy, this is what I believe. This is my personal believe, as a Christian.

The "shadow elites" try to tell us the world is round cause it undermines the bible. What easier way to discredit God and his creation that simply saying "look, the earth is round, the bible says something different, so it clear proof it's all made up.
Satan himself is controlling all these people that insist on the round earth.

I do believe in the Bible and what it teaches. Yes, I don't believe in evolution as well and the flat earth is around 6000 years old max.

pppppppffffffffffffffttttttttttttttttt
>>
>>18617542
but 99% of christians believe the earth is round
>>
>>18617550
Just read through this thread. There is plenty of evidence. And a bunch of unanswered questions about the round earth theory.
Who is laughing now?
>>
>>18617555
>And a bunch of unanswered questions
Like?
>>
>>18617518
Flat earthers ignore almost all real evidence that disproves their myth.
>>
>>18617553
As I said, it's my personal believe. And I don't think 99% of Christian believe in the round earth hoax. Any source for that number?

Catholics do believe in the round earth hoax, but only because their entire church has been infiltrated by reptilians

Please bake new bread

Come on. It's clear proof the sun is a low hanging fire ball
>>
>>18617518
>DO YOUR RESEARCH

every time
>>
>>18617583
If the sun was that close to earth we'd be vaporized
>>
>>18617582
As I said, this is my personal believe and my proof is the bible.

Once you proof the earth is flat all the other lies that we have been told also fall apart
>>
>>18617586
So how do you explain all the proof of evolution and an old Earth?
>>
>>18617585
Fist there are more than just one sun.
But they are considerable smaller than what round earthers believe.
Yes, if a sun of your size would be that close to us we would all be fried chicken.
>>
>>18617592
>Fist there are more than just one sun.
uh
>>
>>18617592
A smaller sun wouldn't provide enough energy for the world to have life.
>>
>>18617589
What proof is there of evolution? There is non! Evolution is a theory that can't be proven. What's your proof for it?
>>
>>18617599
>just a theory
Do you say that for gravity too?
>>
>>18617559

XD do you read what you write my boy? You NEED help, I'm calling someone

Fossil record, DNA record, clear speciation...
>>
>>18617612
How do fossils prove evolution?
They are dead leftovers from creatures. There is no proof that we have actually evolved from them.
>>
>>18617639
I said fossil record, not "fossils".
>>
>>18617641
Here, read this, then we shall talk more.
If this didn't convince you I have more sources as well.

>>18617660
Let me guess, only the sources you link are credible.
>>
>>18617662
Read it and we can talk about it. I think it explains it in a way even a child like yourself can understand it.
