Is it possible to build a flat earth model that corresponds with reality.

>> No.10899529

>>10899526
No, because there doesn't exist a homeomorphism from S2 to the plane.

You'll probably have to rewrite all physics for that

No, because the Flat Earth Model is a prescriptive model rather than a descriptive one. FE takes any observation and tries to fit it into the notion that the Earth is flat. This even includes observations that falsify FE. This means that FE can't make any predictions of observable phenomena, because the observations which it bases it's prediction have been warped in one way or another. Here's a list of stuff that falsify FE.

Maps are flat. Even globes are just printed on flat material. Glad we know which side you're on.

the sun, moon and polaris are one structure.
a hybrid atomic/planetary type system, where polaris is the nucleus and the sun and moon orbit it in a closed wave pattern (with the sun sweeping in and out like the wavelength of a particle, the solstices being the peaks and valleys of the wavelength).

The outer universe is one where simulation technology has been invented, but because the surface is infinite in all directions, the maximum extent of a simulation is a sphere. Somewhere on Earth is a patch of flat land that corresponds to the real world.

Ken wheeler never modeled the earth you retard. He also said he wanted nothing to do with the flat earthers. You're like the resident barneyfag of this board only you can't identify the ponyfags.

Many charlatans have tried, but none have succeeded. Granted, these folks aren't the brightest minds in the world. Still, you'd expect *something* that could be explained only in the flat world, but there is absolutely nothing. Not one thing. Worse, there are no (reasonable) explanations for why anything happens: *why* do the Sun and Moon go around in tighter and wider circles over the year? Why do we see mountain tops in the east remain lighted by sunlight even though we along the coast have seen the Sun set. Etc.
It's shysters and trolls all the way down.

The problem is that, so far, every model anybody has come up with is contradicted by observations. If the model is adjusted to allow for a particular observation, then the new model contradicts a new set of obsrvations.

If you disagree with that, share your model with us please.
