The following user sent me a private message. However I'd to take the time to answer here so everybody can know. You have good knowledge on the topic. I would like to add few thing that Through a telescope, watch a sailing ship coming in towards land. At a great distance away, only the topmost parts of the masts are visible on the horizon On a rather calm yet breezy day, get out to the ocean.
It's because of perspective, convergence and atmospheric refraction. Now go kill yourself and make sure to take BADecker with you.
@odolvlobo,  I'm showing that the red angle is the same for all the poles. The distance of a pole from the observer does not change the angle in red because the angle is taken from the horizon. If the poles were a foot taller the red angle would be greater and if they were a foot shorter the red angle would be less. Do you follow? If I measure a pole with a sextant against the horizon the measurement will be a several seconds. Then if I measure the pole with a measuring tape the pole will be several feet tall. Still following? There will always be a 1:1 correlation between the pole's angle against the horizon and it's height. Because the angle is observed with the human eye when measuring with a sextant, it's the eyes angular resolution limit that defines the distance to the horizon and thus the angle measured. Get it? |

^^^ NASA is documented hoaxing an image of the Earth in their window you fucking douchebag.

@Spendulus I've timestamped the link to the most relevant part. The video came from NASA and they're perpetrating a hoax in it! #4 "NASA caught faking the Moon landings" -- https://youtu.be/pEE7OPKLhaM?t=871@nutildah the Moon is real just not a solid object. Tides are a question for the Flat Earth thread... |

@nutildah there's nothing wrong with the story I linked, the rock is a proven fake.
Q: what about all the other moon rocks that aren't fake?
A: There are no Moon rocks that aren't fake; the Moon is not a physical object.
Q: Why are people paying massive amounts of money for them if they are fake?
A: Same reason people massive amounts of money for gold coated tungsten bars; they're fooled into thinking they're real.
Q: Why hasn't any other country that received moon rocks during the goodwill tour come forward and had similar stories published about their reception of fake rocks?
A: No motivation to do so.
Just a FIY, fossilized wood is considered a "rock".

^^^ The fucker claimed the Moon rock given to the dutch prime minister by Buzz valued at $380,000 was stolen by thieves and replaced with a fake.  Source: GoogleAll the evidence for the Moon landing is manufactured and it's not because thieves broke into NASA and switched it all with fakes! **Queue Mission Impossible theme song** |

DOTR can't come soon enough... "... That link is a rambling, nonsensical thing with unfounded assertions and bad photography/video. ..." Hey shit for brains, why don't you actually watch the video before commenting? |

Yeah mate leave that there, try to ignore the answers from nutildah as much as possible, they might just disappear. Admit you lost the argument, you have no reply to what he said, you fucking dishonest liar. I post video of NASA manufacturing evidence and somehow that makes me a dishonest liar? Please explain. BTW #4 "NASA caught faking the Moon landings" is especially relevant to this thread: https://youtu.be/pEE7OPKLhaM?t=871I've got them "red handed" why does that make me the dishonest liar, I don't understand? |

This is what these faggots are so desperately trying to hide: You can see the angle never changes no matter how close the telephone pole is. They feign ignorance in an attempt to lead people away from the truth, pretending apparent size is the angle depicted above in red. The angle in red never fucking changes and it's based on the human eye, it doesn't matter how fucking close the object is! The pole could be hanging from a fucking helicopter off in the distance, up in sky and it would still have the same fucking angle! Up, down, left, right, close up, far away it doesn't fucking matter the angle DOES NOT CHANGE EVER!!!!!! The Sun is measured directly with a sextant to be 32 minuets or nautical miles in diameter. This would stand up in court. |

^^^ Fuck you faggot, trying to conflate apparent size with angles measured against the horizon.
|

Hey you fuckwads got this backwards, show me scientific proof we, as in man, earth, heaven are not the result of a creative will. Show me scientific proof that nothing exploded for no reason one day, and the mess it left is the natural world of order and beauty we see before us.

You guys are fucking retards and liars trying to confuse the subject.
@odolvlobo you fucking shit for brains, the Sun measures 32 minuets and it's a 1:1 ratio with nautical miles.
The ratio of 1 nautical mile to 1 minute is based on the angular resolution limits of the human eye. Measurements made with a sextant are made against a horizon that's based on convergence to a point, an optical phenomenon with the eye not a hard physical barrier like these fucking faggots want you to believe.
These fucking faggots want you to believe a sextant measures apparent size or some other shit, it measures angles from the horizon.

^^^ You have to change the subject from the Sun's diameter to it's distance from the viewer because you can't debunk the fact the Sun is 32 minutes wide as measured directly. We know 1 minute is equal to 1 nautical mile and that's enough to measure objects.
inb4 bad start spewing shit about an objects apparent size, angles measured with a sextant are the angle between the horizon and the object not between the viewer and the object. Bad will try and push this bullshit because most people don't understand how a sextant works.

^^^ You're a fucking liar, you can measure distances with sextant and it's 1 nautical mile per 1 minute. The diameter of the Sun can be measured directly and it's 32 minutes. Stellar parallax is crock of shit, refraction causes a margin of error greater than the measurement being made. Also if all the stars are a different distances why do they all move as a group never changing relative positions to one another, shit for brains.  |

The self-assured way in which conspiracy theorists stick to their story imbues that story with special appeal. After all, flat-earthers are more adamant that the Earth is flat than most people are that the Earth is round (probably because the rest of us feel we have nothing to prove). "If you're faced with a minority viewpoint that is put forth in an intelligent, seemingly well-informed way, and when the proponents don't deviate from these strong opinions they have, they can be very influential. We call that minority influence," Douglas said.''
This may all be true, but I maintain he's lying about the LEM being cardboard. It's certainly true, cardboard is a cheap and easy to use building material for Hollywood sets. But can he prove it wasn't built of styrofoam? The burden of proof is on him.  Cardboard, tinfoil, curtain rods and BMX bicycle parts.
Here's an image of a real vehicle for comparison, notice how it's made out of precision cut metal and not cardboard, tinfoil & curtain rods:  |

"nm" is nautical miles.

^^^ when I measure the Sun with a sextant it's 32 minutes in diameter. Your (((confusion))) seems to stem from not understanding how this particular map projection works, the presenter explains how it works and you're not following along at all.  |
