Flat Earth Equals Low IQ | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 73740180 United States 03/19/2017 11:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why is the shadow on the moon during a lunar eclipse always round no matter where the eclipse takes place? Quoting: Man_Discarded Why is there not a camera on the ISS that we can zoom into earth and watch something live from space? You think they should spend millions just so you personally can zoom the lens? Who are you? Why don't you donate that camera with a zoom, and the controls to manage it from earth (until it's over the horizon that is), and pay for the cost to send it up????? Yeah right. Like you are THAT special. |
FuegoMagnifico User ID: 14102964 United States 03/19/2017 11:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I found this visualization on Youtube that easily illustrates why Flat Earth is completely bogus. It's a great way for scientific laypeople to understand why FE doesn't work. Quoting: FuegoMagnifico [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] Oh wow so many things wrong with that illustration. First off you are assuming the model has a flat sky with stars that rotate in a flat disc, this is wrong. It's a dome over our heads with stars surrounding like a planetarium. Secondly, you can't reproduce the visual perspective that a human would have from ground level, looking at a light source in the sky. What we see in the sky is the sun travel in a straight line, as it moves away, it goes out of our perspective. This is demonstrated every time the sun "sets" you can still see sunlight long after it's gone. It looks as if the sun light is following the sun away. The simulation was created based on the "dome" model. That was stated in the annotations in the first 5 seconds. Did you really watch it or just didn't observe that? The creator of the simulation basically used all of the Flat Earth Societies stated dimensions for Sun/Moon/Earth Diameter, and Sun/Moon altitude. |

Quoting: awakesouls Well now, that depends on the time... don't it. But I think that's too deep of a subject for you to grasp. Because obviously it's not visible ALL DURING THE NIGHT. But then they would be from one of the poles. But don't let that stop you from acting the fool... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73740180 United States 03/19/2017 11:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You think the Earth is flat, then perhaps you are suffering from a condition I coined called "Low-I". Quoting: Man_Discarded The Earth has been proven spherical by high IQ people over and over again, only to get a small percentage of so-called truthers who think they are smarter than everyone and have stumbled on the biggest conspiracy of them all. They revert to name-calling as that is what low-IQ people do. When you have no rebuttal, calling a name or two is the way to go, because your brain is unable to make a rebuttal, so you revert to attacking. So, if you have a double digit IQ, you too can join the clown show of flatearth-tards such as B.o.b the rapper or Shaquille O'Neil. B.o.b only has a 7th grade education, so there is one reason not to follow his music literally, or his view on the "flat earth". Ignorance drives this conspiracy. It is a PSYOP, and you all have been fooled. Does the sun appear to be exactly still in the sky for 6 months at the exact north pole? There has to be a point on the globe at the very spot that is exactly facing the sun during the summer months of the northern hemisphere. In this exact spot, you should be able to see the sun sit in the sky, for half of the year, according to the globe earth model. Also you technically aren't spinning at that spot so gravity wouldn't affect you. So where is this spot? Where is the video footage of the sun just sitting there? Go ahead find it, I'll wait. hahahha, gravity works from anywhere on the planet. Guess you don't know about the long nights/day in Alaska... Anywhere withing the arctic circle you will have that many months of either day or night, depending on the time of the year. People up there black out their windows, during the "long day", because the Sun never goes down... Do you not know how to use a search engine? Oh that's right, you have LOW-I, sorry I forgot that. |

However it's not perfectly round either, and the curvature calculations are definitely not entirely correct. It's the mainstream that is peddling the lies, not the flat earth believers. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68555493 Well you're close. Really close. Because of centrifugal forces the earth does bulge at the equator. So around the equator is longer than from pole to pole and back again. You're going well, keep learning. |
