Re: Moon eclipse - Earth shadow is round- Flat earth people are proven wrong
So fo any flat earthers out there. Please get out right now, look at the shadow Earth is casting on the moon and realize that it is shaped like a circle.

Why is that? Because Earth is a spheroid!

Please do not ever make another thread about flat earth now!

 Quoting: Saltor


the fact that the eclipse happens in different times around the 'globe' debunks your spheroid theory. If heliocentrism was true half of the globe would see the eclipse at the exact same moment.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70321375


Ok, you are from the stoopid category.
the fact that the eclipse happens in different times around the globe is because different time zones around the globe have different times around the globe.

Re: Moon eclipse - Earth shadow is round- Flat earth people are proven wrong
How many flat planets are there? Is gravity a lie as well? I think the artic ice wall theory is just bananas. I guess only us face side humans have the technology for flight, satellites, other our side of the coin people stuff. I guess on the other side it is all lizard people and unicorns.

Re: Moon eclipse - Earth shadow is round- Flat earth people are proven wrong
According to NASA the earth is spinning counterclockwise towards the east at a speed of 1670 kilometers/hour at the equator and roughly 1180 kilometers/hour at the latitude of NYC.

If this is true then flying west should be much shorter than flying east, because when you fly west you have the benefit of the earth spinning towards you.

Yet an eastbound flight from LA to NYC has a flight time of 5 hours, while a west bound flight from NYC to LA has a flight time of 6 hours. The flight from NYC to LA should be much shorter due to the earth's rotation because as you leave NYC, LA is coming toward you at 1180 kilometers/hour. In contrast the flight from LA to NYC should be much longer because NYC is spinning away from you at 1180 Kilometers/hour.

Notice I said flight time, so time zones do not come into play. The only factor that comes into play is tail wind, not the earth's rotation. How do you explain a rotation of 1180 Kilometers/hour not coming into play?

I gave a simplistic answer; I don't buy into anything I'm told at face value.
 Quoting: BirdLover

Unless it is the flat Earth, then you accept it without question.

Instead of attacking why didn't you address the inconstancies the mainstream tells us?
 Quoting: BirdLover

There are none, just flat Earther's ignorance.

When Pluto goes from Planet to moon to dark star to planet, don't you think that has an effect on someones life? What happens to someones Phd thesis based on "scientific facts" that are proved false.
 Quoting: BirdLover

Pluto is irrelevant to this discussion.


Why can't anti flats address the glaring anomalies of airplane flight, the horizon, water, and theories about gravity?
 Quoting: BirdLover

they have and they've shown there are no anomalies and the flat Earther's ignore it all with their fingers in their ears.


We were told the earth is NOT a sphere, yet they still show us a sphere, I would like to hear that addressed. I don't "believe" it's round, flat or anything else I cant prove.
 Quoting: BirdLover

The difference between perfectly round and oblate spheroid is less than one percent. It can't be seen with the naked eye.

That's because everything we send in space keep a certain speed. We don't really care about that because we don't need these objects to be stationnary in space. In fact, we prefer them to keep the same earth rotation speed to be geostationnary object.

For an object to always be in a stable position and not move in relation to earth, because of gravity and earth rotation around the sun, it would need to be at a specific position we call Lagrangian point. Those location are far away and it would cost a lot of money to go there only to prove that earth is round to earthtards. Every other logical human is able to look at an astronaut or and ISS video and see that Earth is round, and rotating on itself.

and lets add tidal forces.

Tides are caused by the difference in gravitational force from the Moon from one side of the Earth to the other. The difference from one side of a bird or plane to the other is negligible.
