Okay /sci/, can we finally all agree that the earth is flat and not round? So sick and tired of hearing this "globe" shit.

>> No.8762784

>>8762780
Of course the earth is flat let me prove it to you.
The universe is a hypersphere of 4d therefore we lie on the surface of a bubble of space and time. Everyone knows that if you unravel a bubble it's flat, QED.

Why doesn't the sun shine on the whole surface then?

>>8762786
I think the image I attached in the first explains it well enough, if a bit exaggerated. It's more of a spotlight shining on specific parts of the world, going around it and not a sun going over and under the earth.

how could beams of light happen like this on a globe earth? The beams shouldn't be this way.

I'm not sure what you mean. You would never be able to see such long distances with the naked eye because it all eventually blurs/fogs. Pretty simple really.

Why does the blur/fog become immediate once you cross the equator though? Why does a difference of 1 meter cause you to be able to perfectly see some stars as opposed to you being completely unable? Why do these stars move under the horizon when you cross the equator? This would only be possible with a sphere/

It is, it's just suspended in curved spacetime that makes it appear spherical when observed from the outside and loop around at the edges.

It's so obvious. When a map is projected on a globe it gets all distorted. They can never get all the shapes and angles to line up right.

How would you explain that fluids rotate clockwise on some regions, anti-clockwise on others? You can't explain coriolis-force phenomena on a flat surface.

>> No.8763062

Yes I made this observation even by myself (central europe[clockwise] - Bali,Indonesia[anti-clockwise])!

Of course when he does the experiment again with a still pool, the only explanation for why it spins the way he predicted this time is, of course... the rotation of earth, no other reason is possible. Question answered, moving on...

Circumpolar stars as seen looking south from the Southern Hemisphere! Not possible to have both sets of circumpolar stars in a flat model, but inevitable with a rotating globe.

Would depend on the model, but presumably even a flatist is smart enough to have the moon marginally closer.
