    I remember I had a friend in HS whose parents were flat earthers. (I'm 43 btw). They tried to convince me that the earth was flat. Now admittedly I didn't have a good grasp on physics let alone astrophysics to refute at 15yrs old. But one thing I did understand was how a lightbulb worked. So I asked them if the sun emitted light from all sides as we were taught. They said yes. So I then asked how do we have night time on a flat earth because even if the sun is the furthest from me I should still see light, at least in the sky. Also how are there places that will have light for 6 months at a time, but then dark for 6 months. The model you are showing me doesn't make sense unless there is a barrier that stops the light of the sun. I was asked to leave and was never invited back to their house.

    I once played a game of DnD where the setting took place on three discs that orbited each other.
    I decided that my barbarian believed the disc they were standing on was a sphere. My DM hated that my character would use the same arguments flat earthers use in the opposite situation.
    "What do you mean? You can look up and *see* the other discs are flat!"

      That's very cool.
      I remember flying from Johannesburg to Sydney and the plane's flight route went towards Antarctica, as one would expect on a globe, but it was a cold turbulent night flight. Because the air above Antarctica was extra cold (-80° C), the aircon had trouble compensating, so everyone had blankets on them through that flight. Something you don't often see, as there's always a hero in shorts in the middle of winter.
      Definitely not the nonsense you would expect from a flight that skirted Africa, the Middle East, India, South East Asia and Indonesia then Australia as would occur if the earth was flat.
      The entire flight was across an ocean, with no lights of civilization anywhere.

    Like, yes, that is actually the property which, under gravity, causes things to float or sink. Relative density is not an alternative explanation to gravity. All they've done is imagine away what makes density do this, and pretend "it just happens", entirely missing that the point of forces is to model the mechanism of action.

    Long distance flights are quite funny when flerfs are attempting to explain it. They are still trying regardless of tons of evidence. One pilot (maybe not just him, but I know about him for sure) going by the name Wolfie6020 here on YT even offered to pay for the flight tickets for a flat Earther to experience such flight by themselves and in the end the offer was taken by another RUclipsr - Greater Sapiens and he not only flown the flight from Australia to South Africa (Qantas QF63), but he also recorded the whole flight on camera and on GPS tracker, created a video of it and published the tracker data. He even captured the Sun "going backwards" for some time as the plane was south enough for its surface speed be higher than the linear rotation speed of Earth there. Flat Earthers pretend this doesn't exist or it is somehow a trick or "CGI" or whatever other ad-hoc excuse they can pull out of their rear ends. You can hear excuses like: the flights actually never really happen, planes are not possible to track as they disappear from tracking apps, jet streams are so fast, it is possible to compensate for the extra distance. Which only demonstrates they have no clue and or are desperate in their "nu-uhh la-la-la-la Earth is flat" reality denial. But they'll try anyway.

So not only do "flights" never happen they are also essentially mass murder. This technology has been kept from the public because there would be mass civil unrest (and rejection of fast and cost effective international travel which the modern world relies on) if people knew how it really works, so they created the phony story about "airlines".

    Dave, I'm sorry I forgot to say this in my previous comments, but good for you for actually doing the mapping on this and figuring out what the Moon would be doing on the Gleason model. My experience is that flat earthers don't believe in their ideas intellectually; they believe in them emotionally. As such, they don't actually want to look too closely at their model for fear that it won't hold up. It's like a set of parents raising a kid, and Dad knows Mom had an affair before the kid was born. Dad wants the kid to be his and is 70% sure it is, but he won't actually get a DNA test because he'd rather be 70% certain he's right than 100% certain he's wrong.

      The other great explenation is that the earh is constantly "flying upwards". So everything is pulled down by that. So assuming this happens at a constant speed, everyone aborad air planes which travel about 400-500 km/h would smash against their seats or the back of the plane because of the speed. Since this doesn't obviously happen and you can walk freely on plane, it must mean that the appearance of the downward pulling force would have to come from the earth being in a constantly accelerating motion of about 9.81 m/s^2 which is the gravity acceleration, aka the acceleration thag things falling gain. On 6000 year old flat earth this would mean that the earth is currently travelling at about 9.81*6000*360*24*60*60 = 1.85 billion kilometers per second.

    One thing you didn't mention is the path the fixed stars take on the night sky. If the Earth is a disc centered on the North Pole, the entire night sky should rotate around the North Pole, with the southernmost stars appearing to move the fastest. What we see instead is that the stars rotate around both poles, with the stars above the Equator appearing to move the fastest and the stars above the South Pole appearing to stand still. This is irreconcilable with the usual model of the flat Earth.

    I have a much simpler test, which is right up your street.
    Go to Glasgow [ approx 56 deg N ], set up a camera [ video, or long exposure still ] on a tripod at about 55 deg to the horizon, & point it roughly in the direction indicated by the north point on a compass needle. Leave it to run for an hour or so after nightfall.
    Everyone will agree that you will see a series of concentric part circles, centred very close to a single point of light [ Polaris ]. The stars are seen to rotate counter-clockwise. Even flat earthers will not deny that. It proves the stars rotating in 'the Firmament'.
    Now, take exactly the same apparatus down to Cape Horn Island [ or the tip of Tierra Del Fuego, to save a little cost]. The latitudes are 56 deg S & 55S. Point the tripod in the direction of the southern needle of the compass. ( Flat earthers will baulk at this, because there IS no 'South Pole' on their map, it is smeared out to a circle by their use of a north polar centric gnomonic projection ). Simply use the direction of the balancing counterweight opposite the north point on their compass.
    Now, can you see 'Polaris'? Oh dear. Start the filming process exactly as before.
    The result will be VERY similar to before, except that there is no Polaris star near the centre, although the stars of the 'Southern Cross' surround it.
    And, what's more, this time the stars rotate CLOCKWISE.
    Try explaining that on a flat earth, & then on a globe.
    To really push the boat out, have two observers, making the observations simultaneously, so that flat earthers will have to explain not just stars rotating about a non-existent point in space, but stars 'rotating in The Firmament' in two different directions, depending upon where viewed from the surface of the plane.

      @@TheWombat2012 I wouldn't put it past them certainly. That would 'work' for the two people making simultaneous measurements, if one of them has a personal dome that rotates clockwise, & the other has a dome that rotates counter. I would go along with the notion that what you perceive, and what I perceive can be labelled the same, by convention; just as I don't know what you perceive as 'red', it might be what I perceive as 'green', but we both agree to call it 'red'. That's a bit of philosophy that might keep Descartes awake at night. We could both agree to call one perceived direction of rotation 'clockwise' & the other 'counter clockwise', even if what we actually perceived was opposites; but there is an independent arbiter, in the form of a mechanical clock, and I'm sure my clock rotates the same way as yours ( Unless you've got one of those deliberately 'backwards' clocks ).
      So, back to one person making both measurements a couple of weeks apart.
      Why should my 'personal dome' rotate one way when I'm standing in Scotland, and the other way when I'm standing in Tierra Del Fuego? And, what are those southern stars rotating around, and where has Polaris gone?
      By extension, if my 'personal dome' rotates counter-clockwise in Scotland, and clockwise in TDF, there must be some point where it becomes stationary, before starting to spin the other way. The Equator would be a good bet So if I set up my apparatus on the equator, I should see my personal dome stationary. I've not seen the pictures, but I would guess that far from seeing a stationary star field, I would see straight star trails going from horizon to horizon, with sets of very slightly curved tracks either side, curving in opposite directions. Flat earthers will dismiss that as an 'artefact of the lens'.
      But anyway, ALL of my observations can be predicted, simultaneously, by one simple model of a rotating spherical Earth. The 'Discworld' [ no offence to Sir Terry Pratchett RIP ] requires 'personal domes' that people drag around with themselves, and which start, stop, & start again in opposite direction, depending where I stand.

    One of the easiest proofs that doesn’t get mentioned enough is with Polaris. The North Star can be seen by anyone at any time of any night, visibility permitting, as long as they’re north of the equator. At the top and centre of the firmament, the flat earth models say Polaris should be visible at varying angles from anywhere in the world. In reality, Polaris is never visible from south of the equator. That means half of the area on a globe, or three quarters on a plane, never sees Polaris. Granted, most of the land and almost all humans live north of the equator, but there is a comparable southern equivalent. The Crux constellation is never visible north of ~30 latitude, which still includes most humans (India and China aside). Anyone in this area can check as hard as they want, they will never see it unless they head south. That alone proves the Earth is round, let alone that the flat earth model skies have no South Pole.

    • @therealzilch
      @therealzilch Год назад +2

      Agreed. I'd just add that since Polaris is not exactly at the Northern Celestial Pole, and that refraction can also play a role, that Polaris can be sometimes seen a bit south of the Equator. My Maasai guide Emmanuel said that it can occasionally be seen from Mt. Kilimanjaro, which is about two degrees south of the Equator. Height and a bit of refraction help here. On the one really clear night I had in Tanzania, from the Ngorongoro Crater, about three degrees south, Polaris was definitely below the horizon.

Given the fuel range of long-haul aircraft and the speed at which they travel, it would not be possible to fly from Australia to South Africa without stopping to refuel, plus make the journey as quickly as the L.A.-Sydney flight.
    I’ve pointed this out to flerfers - as well as pointing out the Souther Star’s stationary position as the other stars in the Southern Hemisphere rotate in a circle around it.

One person told me that they fill the airplane with some knock-out gas to put everyone to sleep so we’re not aware how long we’re in the air and we miss the landing for refueling.

    As always, when flat earthers don't have a logical, reasonable explanation to justify their belief, they just come up with any crazy and unproven idea… To explain the southern hemisphere flights, I've listened that some flat earthers claim that the flight paths enter some “magic portal” somewhere near “the border” and teletransports the planes to another place nearer its destination, kinda like Pac-Man's “jump” from one side of the screen to the other. I'm starting to believe that, as Dave suggested in another video, we shouldn't allow flat earthers to handle things sharper than a spoon…

      You so dumb. Flat earth is not a sphere, so what hemisphere are you talking about.
      Sheesh

      Consider their sources of information. The creator of the modern flat earth dropped out at the age of 9. Their flat earth leaders have no achievements or contributions to modern technology, science, or math. They likely didn't even graduate from high school. It's just trust me bro.
      Personally, I don't trust a grown man with the intelligence of a 9 yr old, but I guess some do.
      That's why they believe in the flat earth.

      ​@@Heoi_Bikuni They're even worse than 9 year olds. Kids may have trouble understanding it, but they'll at least try. Flat Earthers actively fight against everything that defies their delusions. They somehow achieved negative knowledge.

      That's where you're wrong if you look at the surface of large bodies of water like salt flats the images are duplicate exactly it is not curving 8 inches per mile
