Ah yeah but obviously the connection only works when eclipses occur across the USA. You do know that at least 2 solar eclipses happen every year right? Just you don't hear about most of them because they don't go across the USA.

Anyway if the Earth was actually flat, and the sun and moon were magic spotlights, why would "they", "the ones in control of the lights and the projections" even make this stupid code to begin with.

You seriously think people that wielded this power would bother to drop hints in motherfucking Rolling Stone magazine, and time their fake eclipses to coincide with some online retard's prediction of a "false flag event involving fake alien contact of some kind..."

Get back on ya meds mate 

You sound like an insane person.

First, how do these number/letter pairs work?



So C=3 (OK, I get that, ABC right)
But then H=5 (Wut, I would have thought H=8)
then E=5 as well, and S=3 as well, the same as C...

And apparently if you add up all these totally arbitrary numbers (that are in a random headline), they make 137. Is this a reference to our universe according to Rick and Morty, dimension C-137?

Cool story bro.

Ahh yes, you guys have good taste in anime films.

Ghost in the Shell II - Innocence is cool as well, great animation but it does get a bit up its own arse with its philosophy.

Some more old-skool classics are Vampire Hunter D, Fist of the North Star, and Perfect Blue.
Some newer ones: Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Blood - The Last Vampire, and Tekkonkinkreet.

Most of the films I've mentioned are action/cyberpunk type films but Perfect Blue is a bit of an exception. It's a kind of psychological horror with elements of romance. Very interesting film, when I first watched it it wasn't what I was expecting but I enjoyed it a lot.

No.

GTA V, great game - they really pulled it off with the voice acting and characters, the whole experience is super slick and a lot of fun.

I just completed NieR: Automata, first playthrough. Really great game, amazing soundtrack and reminded me of the old-skool Final Fantasy games. The whole game has a beautiful graphics style, with a lovely washed out colour palette that fits the setting.

I really got involved with the characters and situations, the whole idea of sentient robots is interesting to me.

I know right, I was just browsing youtube the other day and found some scottish pirate heavy metal. They're great.

Edit: And Pirates will know too well the curvature of the Earth, they rely on the measurements to obtain their stolen beer and rum...

For someone who doesn't believe in a round earth you sure seem to like balls.

Look ya fucking buffoon, I already told you it's because the Moon moves east faster than the rotation of the Earth.

Anyway if your bullshit NASA conspiracy was real do you really think they'd fuck up something so simple? They can fake a moon landing but forget which way the shadow moves in a solar eclipse 

Still not sure if you and nomad are trolls, but I enjoy dropping into this thread every now and again for a laugh!

Keep it up dickheads, I'll be back to see you shitcunts posting some more drivel! Meanwhile this is what I think of you both!!!:

Shut up and go watch an eclipse. You won't regret it.

Oh, I thought you ignored me...

It's weird, because you keep posting screenshots of users that you ignored, and then you reply to them.

Do you understand the point of the ignore button? Or do you just come and post replies to the users you have ignored when they post something, that you obviously can't see unless you choose to click on the post?

You get that that is not the point of the ignore button, right? 

Don't expect you guys to watch this, but take 16 minutes of your time, please.

Please.

The "sky wizard" comments are not aimed at BADecker, because although he may be super religious, he has common sense.

So the "Black Sun" exists, but the real Sun and Moon are fake spotlights, suspended from a gold-oxide dome. Then how does the "Black Sun" hover in space, inside the dome? Especially if gravity is fake too...

The faggots at NASA seem to know a lot more than you about solar eclipses, because with billions of dollars at their disposal I abso-fucking-lutely guarantee that they would not fuck up a simple calculation of whether the shadow of the moon would go the wrong way.

You're either a troll, or a fucking buffoon.

Except that there are 1-5 solar eclipses every year. So your numbers game is total bullshit, basically.

Not all of them appear across the US of course, that's how planets and moons work.

I'm not going to look at your post about "11/19/19" because I can guarantee that you will be talking about coinicidental number/letter nonsense.

I'm not ready for a fake alien invasion. You fucking absolute bell-end.

Really. So you've obviously done the calculations and by your logic, the shadow is going the wrong way?

A. Do you not think that maybe you're wrong?
B. Do you not think that maybe the shadow is related to the moon's orbital path?
C. If NASA has spent billions of dollars on convincing us that space is fake, do you think that they would fuck up such a simple concept?

Maybe the people/gods that made the projections/sun and moon spotlights/gold-oxide dome/other unprovable bullshit, are testing us??

Or maybe you're full of shit, or just an idiot.

You should check the eclipse out though to be fair, if you're in the US. I saw one before and it was really cool. Make sure you find an area that gets the full totality path, it's not the same even if you're in 99% of the shadow, the moon needs to be fully obscured for the effect. It gets really dark.

Das ist verboten in der Flat Earth community apparently 

I mean NASA knew we might use household objects to represent our physical universe - they rigged the lightbulbs! All lightbulbs are fake, they don't emit real photons, just weird conspiracy photons that trick us into believing the propaganda...

No of course not ya doofus. The lines are what we see, as an observer. The sun obviously (well if you believe it's a ball), radiates photons out in every direction.

The lines don't represent the Sun's rays, per se, they represent what we see on Earth - the photons that hit our eyes. It's really not that hard to understand, photons emmited from a large diameter light source (like the Sun) go out in every direction, but we only see the photons that travel directly from the object in a straight line to our eyes (or light sensor).

So how do you think solar eclipses happen? And what's your calculation for the diameter of the moon's shadow during a solar eclipse?

It's protokol, and fuck you too. 

You don't need an accurate depiction of the Sun's rays to work out your question, you just need to use the angles coming from its diameter, and line them up with the object that is casting the shadow. The same rules apply for any light source, you can literally try it with an electric light bulb and a ball in your house right now.

Oh yeah you didn't answer my question about angular resolution of the human eye, how it's not related to the angular resolution of optics/light sensors, and why if you stand on your head the tops of ships don't get cut off. So?

I mean it's a bit late to do the maths right now, but the first way I would work out the diameter of the shadow (the umbra, full totality), is by simple geometry.

Diameter of the Sun (about 865,000 miles)
Diameter of the moon (about 2,160 miles)
Distance from the Sun to the Earth (about 93,000,000 miles)
Distance of the Moon from the Earth (239,000 miles)

So now we can draw a pretty diagram, to scale, and work out the diameter of the shadow. Here is a diagram (obviously not to scale) of what I mean:



Edit: Whoops, that's actually a diagram of a lunar eclipse (with the shadow being cast by the Earth), but my method is still valid.

There would me other ways to do this if you don't have a big piece of paper, for example using trigonometry to calculate the angles and distances.

Of course there's not a fixed size, the size of the shadow is related to how close the Moon is to its perigee. But it turns out the diameter of the umbra is about 100 miles.

It's honestly not rocket science. How does this work on a flat Earth again?

Could be, I'm not teeneffigy but I am colourblind haha. I did watch the video and what he's saying doesn't make sense.

Just because our eyes have a certain angular resolution, that doesn't explain why objects should start disappearing from the bottom up. If that was the case, then if you stood on your head and looked at the horizon then the top of the ships would be obscured, which obviously doesn't happen.

Anyhow, as soon as you introduce a secondary form of magnification (like a zoom lens), the angular resolution of our eyes becomes irrelevant, because you're now basing the image on the angular resolution of the zoom lens optics, not your eye. Funny that no flat earthers ever use professional quality telephoto lenses or telescopes, just P-nine-fucking-thousands 

This is one of the strangest FE ideas I think, the fact that somehow the bottom of objects will start to become obscured due to new laws of perspective.

Forget about our eyes, you could just use a professional SLR with an expensive tele lens, and take high resolution photos of distant objects. The resulting image is not based on human eyesight, it is based on optics and light sensors in the camera.

If your idea of perspective is true, then why does the camera take an identical photo if you turn it upside down? Surely the top of the building would be cut off in this case?
