RE: Horizon Drop: The Easiest, Most Definitive Way to Prove the Curvature of the Earth

in #science7 years ago

told you i'm not interested in cosmology.

( well i am interested in how polaris maintains its position despite the earth's massive path around the sun. )

prove it here on earth, not some distant blips of light that could easily be photoshopped, can't possibly be confirmed by average man.

these aren't proofs, they are black box proofs. i don't care how many claim it makes sense, it is still only a handful of people that have actually touched the equipment used.

this type of data is useless to me, let us talk of things we can both touch and feel.

and really what is the good of that? how will it help us build buildings?

all you can say is when we go to space... well i don't believe we can, it seems there are lies afoot. like the number of satellites that are suppose to be up there and yet we see none pass in front of the moon no matter how long we look, yet google earth would have you believe you'd see a hundreds in just 10 minutes of observation.

Sort:  

I know, you told me many times that you are not interesting in any observations or data that disproves your nonsense.

Polaris doesn't maintain its position. It moves.

Look up in the sky. Watch the sun travel in a straight line across it. This is impossible on your flat earth.

Your disbelief in our accomplishments saddens me. You live in such a dreary little snow globe. How do you work up any energy to get up out of bed?

You can see the ISS pass in front of the moon with a telescope, or even a p-900 camera if I am not mistaken about its zoom capabilities. You can even make out the shape of the space station. Pretty cool stuff. Satellites are much more difficult as they are much much smaller and move very quickly. I don't think it is possible. Low orbit for a satellite is 1200 miles up. Geosynchronous orbits are 22,000 miles high. Do you think you can see a basketball moving at 25,000 mph from 1200 miles away?

I said satellites not one thing.

Polaris does not make sense.

Gyroscopes don't move, aside from your special one I can't test.

Suez Canal is flat.

All these things do in fact prove globe earth's is false. Time to figure out the truth.

Just because some things don't make sense to you, doesn't mean they don't actually make sense.

186 million miles is the supposed diameter of earth's path around the sun.

yet this star remains fixed in the sky. sorry, that makes no sense, and it shouldn't to you either. every other star appears to rotate around it, that is what is observable.

The sun doesn't remain fixed in the sky. Are you completely retarded? Or do you spend the entirety of your existence in your parent's basement?

Let me spell it out for you.

Our path around the sun, per globe theory, is that far. We would literally be 186 million miles away from our current position in 180 days from now. There is no way that Polaris would be able to remain in that stationary position during our 'journey' to the other side of the sun.

Might want to back off the mockery, you leave me tons of room for ridicule, which I will withhold.

I take no pleasure in being right, I just want what is Truth.

Let us behave as adults, and not children.

Let's see, polaris is about 433 light years away from us. A light year is 5,878,625,373,183 miles long, so polaris is 2,545,444,800,000,000 miles away. So its position in the sky does shift when one looks at from opposite ends of earth's orbit. Its positions shifts approximately .00756 arc seconds. Hope that helps.
