Flat Earth Theory / On the Subject of Constellations
« on: July 23, 2019, 02:19:46 PM »
If the earth is constantly moving upwards, constantly changing its positions, why do the constellations we're used to see barely change?

If you're thinking about saying that it's because these constellations are pretty far away and our perspective would barely change, sorry to disappoint you, but...

Why are there constellations that can only be seen on one half of the earth, commonly known as hemisphere, and can't be seen on the other?

Flat Earth Theory / On The Subject of Gravity
« on: July 20, 2019, 03:26:47 PM »
It has been said by many flat earth believers that gravity is not responsible for the objects falling to the ground. It's explained by them that in fact the earth is going upwards, and from our perspective it looks like those objects are descending. I assume that they mean these objects are "frozen" in space, only moving when earth pushes them.
Now, if the earth is going up, that means that every point of the planet is moving exactly at the same speed, so that the earth can move upwards without suffering any deformations. So, since every part of the planet would be going up at the same speed, we would see every object falling exactly at the same speed: even if we dropped a feather and an anvil from a certain height, we'd expect to see them falling at the same speed. But we don't. What causes this?
