If the earth was flat...

[cobra]

A rotating sphere that emits light will emit light in ALL directions. There will be no dark spots .

The idea is that the sun is much smaller than earth so it works like a spotlight...only illuminating certain parts of its orbit

I got a few questions. How the fukk does gravity work. Magnetic pull of the moon is strong enough to pull the ocean and create tides but has zero effect on pool next to a beach

Then I'm thinking how the hell is gravity strong enough to keep every single item on earth from floating away but at the same time can the force can be easily broken by me tossing a piece of paper in the air.

Is it intelligent

The streets need to know

Eclipses happen because the sun has a smaller natural satellite that has a large, uneven orbit around the sun. Eclipses happen when the orbit of the satellite and the sun intersect over earth.

Similarity the moon also has satellites orbiting around it. However the radius of this orbit is much smaller, hence explaining lunar cycles.


These satellites are small so they can't be seen unless they create a shadow.

"Natural satellites" are orbiting the sun and moon that are too small to see but are large enough to block the entire sun and moon? Do you not see how that makes no geometrical sense whatsoever?


I could block the moon with a penny when it's close to my face, but when I bring that same penny away from my face and closer to the moon it can no longer block the moon, cuz it's too small. This is a concept that even a kindergartener understands. How in he hell is a small object that is close moon able to block the entire moon?

Day and night cycles can be explained by the way the sun rotates around the singular pole

Seasons happen when the sun is closer to the specific continents

In your model, Greenland and far northern Russia are receiving 24 hours of daylight, yet we know that isn't the case in real life. Also, the South Pole receives 24 of daylight, yet in your flat Earth model, there is no south pole. Also, during the summer in the southern hemisphere, the days would have to be shorter due to the sun rotating at a wider radius, we also know that isn't true.

Why is there only one complete picture ever taken of the earth

Even NASA Says its photoshopped and had a artist photoshop it based off data

Photoshop existed in 1972? :bpgucci:

Negged.:bpufedup:

I am referring to the sun

The idea is that the sun is much smaller than earth so it works like a spotlight...only illuminating certain parts of its orbit

That only works is something blocks the light. The light will travel in ALL directions if it comes from something round. For your model to work the sun has to be a flashlight emiti by light in one direction.

No shyt it didn't exist
They still alternated the pics that's what Im saying

And Black Panther sucks

The streets need to pick up a textbook. Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2 towards the center of earth, IE downwards, constantly. When you throw a piece of paper into the air you're providing an initial acceleration greater than gravity so it will travel upwards. Air resistance provides a counter force so the acceleration on the paper slows in the up direction and eventually becomes balanced with acceleration due to gravity. Then there is no more upward acceleration so gravity pulls the paper back down.

Imagine height on the y axis and time on the x. At x=0.01 you've accelerated the paper up. At the highest point on y acceleration up and acceleration down are equal. At the end of x the paper has returned to its original height (your hand).

The topic of Antarctica is plagued with misinformation by various governments. It is best to be skeptical of any of their or their scientists' claims. Hence the 24 hour sun theory is fake news.

Regarding the magnetic field , there are 2 prevailing theories.

The simpler one is that the earth's magnetic field is similar to that of a disc magnet.

This model requires two poles and for the disc to have considerable girth.

The second theory is much more interesting. It states that there is only a single pole at the centre of the disc and the magnetic field is radial. Currently, radial magnetic fields are are not possible with Maxwell's equations. Maxwell's equations state that the net magnetic flux is zero. The equation is
Integral(magnetic field . Change in area).
Radial magnetic fields will cause the change in area to be non zero.
However, string theory allows us to modify maxwell's equations so that the magnetic flux can be non zero. Therefore, magnetic monopoles and radial magnetic fields can exist.

This theory requires the disc to have very little thickness.

Thanks for explaining, but you seemed to have missed the Australia/American daylight question.

Actually, the entire earth is accelerating upwards at 9.8m/s^2 (along with the sun, moon and their satellites) due to propulsion from dark energy.

another revolutionary theory in flat earth science is the Davis model. John Davis suggests that the earth is an infinite disc with finite gravity.

here are some of his calculations:

so basically everything at all times is in a constant state of being pulled to the center Earth.

Thanks for confirming my thoughts we are definitely on a prison planet. A force so strong you can't detect it unless you want to leave

So what is up.? Accelerating upward where?

So what is up.? Accelerating upward where?

the direction perpendicular to the plane of the disc

 

[Wardo]

How does a flat disk accelerate upward. Why is the earth moving at all.?

dark energy

mainstream scientists hypothesize that is its responsible for the universe expanding. Flat earth scientists believe that it is accelerating the earth at 9.8 m/s^2
