Hello! Apparently this is the site to go to if you want answers.
I'm not interested in a debate, just in understanding what FET proposes. I'll leave refutations and rebuttals to others, I prefer to figure out the models.
I've heard bits and pieces about a bipolar Earth model that uses something like the Lambert azimuthal map as, at least, a potential illustration. I was referred, also, to this text:
http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/library/books/Sea-Earth%20Globe,%20The%20(Zetetes).pdfMy initial query was on the path of the Sun. If you hold to a model similar to the one outlined in that text then on page 30, in fig 25, I'm wondering about what happens when the Sun is at L. I know it mentions the light of the Sun travelling in great curves, but I don't see what kind of curve could be used to avoid it lighting up either all of the northern hemiplane, or none of the southern. When the Sun is 'behind' a pole, how can it illuminate the other hemiplane without lightning up all of the hemiplane it's in?
(The best solution I can see is if it's some kind of spotlight at an angle, but I don't really understand what would cause that, and cause the angle to change, particularly as it shifts between systems. Plus it seems as though that would have more noticeable effects).
If you subscribe to a bipolar model that's different to that, then my question's just, more generally, what kind of path does the Sun take?
Thank you for your help.
