      When our prophet muhammed , May God bless him and grant him peace , was asked about this , he said :
      When God, Blessed and Most High, concluded His creation with absolute laws, so that nothing remained of His creation except Adam, He created two suns from the light of His throne. As for what He knew beforehand that He would call it a sun, He created it like the world, between its easts and its wests. As for what He knew beforehand, He would obliterate it and turn it into a moon. It is smaller than the sun in size, but it is only seen that they are small due to the extreme height of the sky and their distance from the earth.
      If God had left the two suns as He created them at the beginning of the matter, it would,nt been known night from day, nor day from night, and the worker would not have known how long he would work and when he would receive his wages. The fasting person does not know how long he will fast, and the woman does not know how to observe the waiting period, and Muslims do not know when the time for Hajj is, and the creditors does not know when their debts will be due, and people do not know when they will go about their livelihood, and when they will rest for the rest of their bodies,
      and the Lord Almighty looks upon His servants and is merciful to them ,So he sent Gabriel, peace be upon him, and directed his wings to the face of the moon - which was a sun on that day - three times, so the illumination was wiped out from it, and the light remained in it.
      The blackness that you see in the moon resembles lines in it, it is the effect of erasure
      Then God created for the sun a wheel from the light of the light of the Throne, having three hundred and sixty handles, and He entrusted the sun and its wheel with three hundred and sixty angels from the inhabitants of the lower heaven, each of whom was attached to a handle from those handles.
      And God created for them easts and wests in the two diameters of the earth, and beneath the sky there were eighty and one hundred springs in the west, black clay. Hence the words of the Almighty: {He found it setting in a silty spring} means black sludge of clay, and one hundred and eighty springs in the east are like that, black clay bubbling like boiling pot if it boils too much.
      Every day and every night has a new sunrise and a new sunset, and between the beginning of it is sunrise and the last of it is sunset ,the longest is the day in summer.
      To its end in sunrise , and the beginning of it is sunset, the shortest is the day in winter.
      And God created a sea, and it flowed below the sky for a distance of three leagues, and it is a blind wave standing in the air by the command of God Almighty, not a drop of which drips, and the seas are all calm, and that sea is flowing at the speed of an arrow and then shooting straight into the air, as if it were a rope stretched between the east and the west, the sun, the moon, and the disappearings, will flow in the deep depths of that sea.
      Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, said: May my father and mother be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of God! You mentioned the running of the dissapearings with the sun and the moon, and God has sworn by the disappearings in the Qur’an to whatever you mentioned, so what is the disappearings?
      He said: O Ali! They are five planets: the Zodiac (jupiter), Saturn, Mercury, Bahram (mars), and Venus. These are the five ascending and moving planets, like the sun and the moon.
      and the rest of the planets , they are suspended from the sky like the suspension of lanterns from the mosques, and they circle with the sky in praise, reverence, and prayers to God.
      Then the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: If you would like to clarify this, then look at the rotation of the astronomy once here and another time there, for that is the rotation of the sky, and the rotation of all the planets with it except these five.
      and when the sun rises, it will rise from some of those springs in its haste, and with it will be three hundred and sixty angels with their wings spread, dragging them in the ark with praise, sanctification, and prayers to God.
      And if God wanted to test the sun and the moon and show His servants one of the signs and admonish them for turning away from disobeying Him and returning to obeying Him, the sun would fall from the wheel and fall into the depths of that sea (above them), which is the ark. and if God wanted to magnify the sign and intensify the fear of His servants, the entire sun would fall and not a single bit of it would remain on the wheel. That is when the day becomes dark and the stars appear, and it is the end of its eclipse.
      if he wanted to make one sign without another, then half, one-third, or two-thirds of it falls into the water, and the rest of that remains on the wheel, then it is an eclipse without an eclipse, and a calamity for the sun or the moon, and a fear for the servants, and a request from the Lord Almighty. So what is that happened, The angels entrusted with its wheel became two groups. A group of them approach the sun and pull it toward the wheel, and the other group approach the wheel and pull it toward the sun, and in doing so they accompany it in the astronomy with praise, sanctification, and prayer to God according to the number of hours of the day or hours of the night, whether it is day or night, whether it is in the summer or in the winter. Or what is between that in the fall and the spring, so that nothing increases their length, but God has inspired them and knows that, and given them that power, and what you see from the sun or the moon coming out little by little after the eclipse, from the submergence of that sea that is above them, so when they bring them all out, the angels gather. All of them, so they carried it until they placed it on the wheel, and they thanked God for having given them the strength to do so, and they clung to the tyres of the wheel, and they dragged it in the astronomy, praising, sanctifying, and praying to God until they reached the west with it. When they reached the west with it, they inserted it into that spring, and it fell from the horizon of the sky into the spring.

      I challenge you to watch it on a big screen monitor, and do this:
      1) Select a particular small cloud;
      2) Focus on it, as the video plays;
      3) Follow it as it moves toward the horizon.
      4) Note whether it changes shape.
      5) Estimate how many miles it traveled.
      Then stop and remember how maybe as a child you would lay in the grass and watch the clouds.

      If they say it is live, then they are lying.
      If they are images stitched together, why? With all the technology available and endless borrowing, why can't they afford to just run constant surveillance video of earth from there?

I have no problem with people questioning authority, in fact I encourage it. But just because you question something, it doesn't mean you have to turn your brain off. Y'all will question honest, hard-working people doing real work to show their findings, but you won't question the 50 year old schizo lunatic who has everything to gain from you believing him. while the world as a whole has absolutely nothing to gain from making this shit up.

    Forget the whole curvature question. Ignore the mysteriously absent sun. What DO you see?
    I see the the lights of towns and cities. Some of those city lights disappear, "over the horizon". Why would all of the lights of all of the towns, that are easily and clearly discernible at that altitude, suddenly disappear at a very clearly apparent horizon that is not very far away?
    On a flat earth, at that altitude, you should be able to see...everything. "Perspective" would not cut away half of an easy to see city and make the more distant half impossible to see.

    Hello, where did you buy that flashing light from? Most lights online I found were drone lights that only had 3-mile visibility... FAA requires 5-miles for nighttime weather balloon strobe lights.

      U stupid there’s something called exposure it’s the brightness in the camera also it’s collects lights.
      Nasa uses low exposure to make the earth look in high detailed and u will not see stars but when the camera is in high exposure the earth will be sooo bright but you will see stars.
      Stay SMART

    I'm curious is it possible to get a ballon to go double the max height of most flights. Say 50-60 thousand meters (I believe that would be equivalent to 250,000 feet).
    I know balloons pop, but I'm wondering there is an inexpensive low tech way to get them that high

      @Dee Dee i see you two going off on my comment. Good discussion :)
      While your'e at it, look at this too: wiki.tfes.org/The_Ice_Wall
      Lots of good information concerning flat earth.
      This one is about the ice wall, and why it is impossible for human to explore there freely:
      ruclips.net/video/NPbhHpeHTiE/видео.html&feature=emb_logo
      this vid is 30 min
      I'ts either 2 things: There is undiscovered land beyond the ice wall, or the edge of the earth is there.
      I " believe" the edge is there.
      (we still haven't see a video " without a fish eye lens" being launched near the ice wall)
      That will tell us that the earth is spherical and we humans are unable to leave. That will also tell us that bibllical scripture is true, but it also proves that the earth is stationary and under a dome.
      Funny how these gopro balloon trips show more then nasa ever shown us... other then cgi...
      " When the idea that we can't leave earth becomes true in the sight of the sheep" then their religion/faith in (darwinism/evolution theory/big Bang) will become obsolete..

      @Sharon L Let me give you another gold nugget. Christ, the Son of the Living God almighty. Born from the tribe of Judah, called " The lion of Judah". The last known location of this kingdom can be found on the old map from 1747 located in Negroland Guinea. Now you know why there was a 'specific people" who became slaves in those days and why. The original branches of the olive Tree and the branches who were crafted in (Read whole roman 11)
      The more you know ;)

    How come the iss cant see stars or the Apollo astronauts?

    • @sparkplug1018
      @sparkplug1018 6 лет назад +1

      Because they had the camera exposure set to photograph the much brighter Moon (in Apollo's case) or the much brighter ISS and Earth from the ISS. those objects are much brighter from our perspective then the background stars.
      If Apollo had attempted to photograph background stars, the glare from the moon in the long exposures needed would have greatly over exposed the picture.
      From the ISS it would be possible if the camera were A on a tracking mount that accounted for the forward motion of the ISS to track the target stars. And B was pointed the opposite direction from the ISS and Earth.
      Hope that helps, its possible to image very faint objects, even from Earth, but very long exposures are required due to their apparent dimness. While brighter objects, say a selfie on a sunny day require a much shorter exposure.

    And 177 km landing from when you started is doable , like 59 km/h drift (37 Mph drift) .
