Why is there any argumentation about this? That is silly. Every single poster here can step outside and check if its valid or not.

Well I don't know what's going on but when I moved into my house, the north side of my hen house never got any sun. I had to change all the(sun loving) plants I put there. I have had shade plants there for 6 yrs now, all was well. Last year,maybe the year before that, I noticed certain plants getting burned and and had to move some out. This year it is almost fully in the sun for about 6 or more hrs a day. I have the sun plants back in now. fwiw |

I always find it interesting when I remark in my mind that the sun seems somewhat farther north than it should be (it sets behind mountains here and so we have markers to go by, ie: which mountains is it setting behind)and then the next day there is a post like this.
I do think you are right. |

Just "step outside"? You think that everyone knows, just by looking, whether the Sun is where it belongs? No, they don't. That is why people are making all these silly "Sun out of place" claims. They have no idea where the Sun should be. |

Lowest point of Sun will cross Horizon at 300 degrees; Sun will completely disappear at 304 degrees - use a compass and allow for the magnetic declination of the area when measuring angles. |

So let me get this straight if somebody makes a claim it's automatically correct?
No proof no evidence just correct?
A poster provided you a way to provide evidence one way or the other but the claimant doesn't use it to make a case?
OK I go for that!
THE SUN IS TOO FAR SOUTH AND IS RISING 8 HOURS TOO EARLY!
There you go it's said so it has to be true and that makes the OP a debunker! |

Personally, I don't give a shit either way.
Neither should you when somebody makes a post. What do you think this is - a science forum? It's freakin GLP. If somebody wants to claim something - so be it.
Believe, don't believe, move along, whatever.
BTW, who is the "WE" that you speak about?
All I know is that where I live, in the southern US, we've set a new record each day of June for temperature. Go back and check any record books to find out how common that is - NOT. 10 days straight of new heat records. Nearly 100 each day of June. That is the FACT. That is verifiable. So, something is up with the Sun and personally, I'm open to all explanations.
I know why I'm here

"SLIGHTLY" out of place?? These people are claiming it is so far off that they can tell just by LOOKING and REMEMBERING from last year!!
From your link:
"Tiny deviations, less than a millimetre in size, in the predicted wobble of the Earth's axis..."
That is not "Earth's wobble" at all!. That is MINISCULE! GAD, you are stupid! Both the Chandler Wobble and Precession are vastly larger than that little thing and neither one relates in the slightest to the silly premise of the OP.

A few years, well that must make you an expert, JR.
I've lived here for 20+
So, why don't you prove to me that historically, it's normal to have 100 degrees for the first ten days of June.
Just give up Jackass, you tried to make a point and failed because you didn't gather all the pertinent information before drawing your conclusion.

Dude, It was viewing the ships as they left the harbor and people noticed they could only see the top half after some distance occurred between the viewer and the ship.
THAT, is what started the question "Is the world really flat or is it rounded?"
A simple observation lead to the discovery of the world being round, spherical. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
Exactly. A VERIFIABLE, REPEATABLE observation.
Everybody can climb a tree and discover he can see farther now.
That is the scientific method at work.
And tell me, what scientific instruments back then were used to calculate the earths shape? Their brains, and it was a bunch of sailors that actually lead the discovery. A bunch of alcoholic sailors. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
They used the sun, a stick, and a tool called mathematics.
Don't smear the sailors. They did a hard and dangerous job.
One requiring considerable intelligence.
AND, those who 1st supported the idea the world was rounded were ridiculed constantly, they were socially unaccepted. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
Do you have any evidence to support that claim?
It was not scientists today who made the discovery then. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
No, it was scientists then. As was stated.
In fact, the Greeks before Columbus's time new the world was round. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
So did the Arabs, Indians, and Chinese. (To name a few.)
During the Middle Ages most educated people where aware that the Earth was a sphere.
BTW, Columbus was wrong. He thought that the circumference of the Earth was 25,255 kilometres at most.
The church was suppressing the idea from the public. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
Do you have any evidence to support that claim?
(I'm sure DrPostman will be here shortly with a load of links to proof that just isn't true. It's a pet peeve of his.)
Just like TPTB are suppressing knowledge now! Quoting: Schmieder 324203
Do you have any evidence to support that claim?
Educate yourself. Quoting: Schmieder 324203
Ditto.
