Flat Earth

[exemplaar]

^^^ The interesting thing is that even a 2D picture isn't flat.

...blah,blah,blah...

More vane babbling out of a sellout's mouth.

The Word of The Lord is very clear - Flat Earth.

The Defeat of Satan

^[7]And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released from his prison ^[8]and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. ^[9]And they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down out of heaven from God and consumed them, ^[10]and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

-- Revelation 20 ESV

bump.

[TimeBits]

Ok I am here now from the moon thread notbatman.

I asked what happens if I keep flying east what would happen, lets ignore that.

What happens if I keep flying north from Canada? Do I not hit south America after awhile? then USA then Canada again?

What happens?

[notbatman]

^^^ What happen is you watch the following video, it shows a map of the Earth "as it is" and explains how to use it.

Uh oh. Your map of the Earth doesn't show any corners. Back to the drawing board!

[nngella]

This is just my hypothesis,
i think the presence of aurora bureallis is one of the proofs? because if the earth is flat then there is no north and south pole that have magnetic interactions with one another to produce the said phenomenon.

The ol classic youtube video proof

[notbatman]

^^^ It's not a video showcasing some experiment or observation that proves the Earth is flat, it's a video about a map and how to use it you fucking retard.

[BADecker]

^^^ Now, now, relax. Just because someone is able to present his evidence better than you, doesn't mean you need to always get nasty. If you absolutely knew that you were right, it wouldn't really bother you that they were wrong. So, it's your own doubts that are making you talk so badly against other people.

What I mean is, thank you for always helping to show that the earth is a globe rather than flat... just by your  malicious talk.

The aurora borealis and Earth's magnetic field are not exclusive to the globe.

The globe theory says that a molten nickel-iron core @ 5,430 °C creates the magnetic field. However iron loses it magnetic properties when it passes the curie temperature @ 770 °C and nickel @ 354 °C.

In reality the dome or firmament that covers the plain of the earth is made of sold nickel-iron steel that's electrified to an extreme potential. The positive electrical charge of the dome induces a negative charge on the Earth below and a magnetic field (Earth's magnetic field) at 90°. The result is a magnetic field with its north pole at the center and the south pole around the circumference of the plain, the same configuration as in an audio speaker magnet.

The person in the video is confused. There are 60 nm per 1 degree of latitude, but he measures the distance from Sydney to Perth with degrees of longitude.

Looking at the map, it is quite clear that the distance between longitude lines varies. If 36 degrees is 4000 km in Australia, is it also 4000 km at the north pole? I don't think so.

[notbatman]

^^^ 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.

[BADecker]

^^^ No, the confusion is that you are using the sextant for a wrong kind of measurement. How to prove this? Take a balloon up to within 5 feet of the sun, and make your sextant measurement there. How many minutes in diameter is the sun now? It's way off the scale. You'd get a similar measurement if you simply pointed the sextant at the ground and measured the earth. The 32 degrees is meaningless.


You've seen those carpenter or artist T-squares. Hold the base of the T at your eye, and aim the T at the sun. Eyeball the sun's width at the T cross member measurement increments. Then run two strings, one from each side of the T cross member where either side of the sun measurement spot is located, down to the center point at the base of the T. Notice how the sun gets narrower - the strings getting closer together - as you approach the base of the T-square. This tells you nothing about the width of the sun unless you know the distance to the sun.

You are using incomplete info. If the sun were 20 billion miles in diameter, and it still showed 32 degrees, it would be because the sun was much farther away. You are simply misusing the sextant, and misinterpreting the 32 degrees when you call it in miles.

Notice that your diagram says "1 degree of latitude". I agree that 1 degree of latitude is 60 nm. The presenter mistakenly believes that 1 degree of longitude is 60 nm. The result is that his distances, other than those to the North Pole (because he uses degrees of latitude), are all wrong.

The presenter believes that each degree of longitude is 60 nm. That's what he is saying, right? That means that the distance around the earth is 21600 nm (360 degrees times 60 nm) no matter where you start from. According to him, whether you are near the North Pole, on the equator, or at the southern edge, the distance around is 21600 nm. Do you believe that too?

Now, it should be noted that he picked a latitude at which 1 degree of longitude is coincidentally close to 60 nm, but if he picked a different latitude his results would have been obviously wrong. For example, the distance between Östersund, Sweden and Reykjavik, Iceland is only about 1000 nm, even though they are also 36 degrees of longitude apart.

I am shocked by your messages.
You're good!

Just curious. Does "nm" stand for nano-meters?     

[notbatman]

"nm" is nautical miles.

[BADecker]

^^^ You are mistaken about a sextant. You can't find the distance to an object without knowing its width/height. All the sextant does is gives an angle. You can't find the width/height of the sun itself without knowing the distance to it. You need more than a simple angle to find distance or height. If you have a method, show us the method.

BTW, research globe earth to find out where you really are in life.



EDIT: Parallax method for measuring the distance to the sun - https://www.universetoday.com/117843/how-did-we-find-the-distance-to-the-sun/.

[notbatman]

^^^ 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.

[BADecker]

^^^ Refraction index can be determined and accounted for, because there isn't any atmospheric refraction when the object is directly overhead.

Show us how to measure the distance to an object with the sextant alone, not knowing the distance to, or size of, any object or shadow. How does it work? Show us the complete equation.
