IS THE EARTH FLAT? ARGUMENTS OF THE TERRAPLANISTS

in #education6 years ago (edited)

Heliocentrism was born in antiquity with the proposal of Aristarchus of Samos to say that the Earth revolves around the Sun. This was not heard and his theories were never accepted. Not until the Renaissance when Nicolaus Copernicus proposed this theory again and Kepler and Galileo reinforced it, achieving a paradigm shift in the scientific vision that continues to this day.

Since then, some believe that the earth is round and that it revolves around the Sun. Well, almost everyone.

arguments

The horizon always looks flat see it from where you look, either from space or from the earth. Those who believe that the earth is flat assure that the slight curvature that is in images of NASA is a crude manipulation.

Antarctica are walls of ice that surround the entire Earth. According to these theories, the south pole does not exist, only a north magnetic pole in the center of the Earth.

Also they assure according to trigonometric reasonings that if the Earth were a sphere it would be impossible to contemplate according to which landscapes to more than 600 meters, for that reason, they assure that it is flat, because landscapes can be seen more than 100 kilometers away.

They say that the planes, if the earth were in motion, would vary their flight times in each trip given that they would go for or against the terrestrial rotation proposed by the heliocentric theory that many scientists like Michelson-Morley, Sagnac, Tomaschek or Biddell Airy have denied after experimenting and, according to them, prove, that the Earth is not in motion.

They also argue that the sea and the waters of the earth at rest always form a horizontal plane, in a spherical and rotating earth these properties would not make sense.

The polar star always maintains the same position just above the North Pole. In the same way it happens with the constellations, if the earth were rotating and orbiting through space next to the solar system, the constellations would have changed throughout history. In addition, if the Earth were in rotation, the perfect circles that form the "startrails" around the polar star would not appear in the nighttime photograph.

They say that if the earth were spherical we could see the two sides of the Moon, but that does not happen. We always see the same side of the moon, this would prove that the earth is flat.

This is the main argument of those who maintain that the Earth is flat and completely reject the heliocentric postulates ... It is necessary to give details of why all these arguments are wrong, it is not necessary to be a luminary to understand the basic error that everyone commits. In any case, this theory confirms once again the human need to take refuge in conspiratorial lands, even if these are true lies.

I just want to tell them who thinks earth is flat that Get well soon

thank you for that significant comment but I do not think the earth is round and I like to discuss (talk) about that topic if you want to contact us and let's talk xD

Then tell me your best logic to explain earth is flat

good to there are many explanations I will explain you an easy imagine that you are from Argentina and you are going to travel to Japan or to a farther one and take a bull the abion takes off coje sierta height and does not say if it was round the abion would have to decender little by little each time more so to avoid getting lost from the planet worse not what they do is take height then go right and bend and ready somehow they arrived I think it is not understood much

Then how do you explain the day and night in the earth

it is easy it would be similar only the sun would be to the other side or side of the planet and it would not have enough light to light the rest of the planet and it would be dark and the moon would be there or something like that I am not very good explaining

With all due respect, flat earth is the most stupid thing could happen to human history... Complete crap...

Well, that's your opinion, not mine, although I do not think it's flat flat, I just think it's an out-of-the-way way. I do not know how to say a broken stone.
