Flat Earth Investigations / How does FET explain comets?
« on: July 20, 2020, 05:21:13 PM »
Last week, the comet "Neowise" was visible from my location. I could see it each night in the western sky.
One observation I made was that its position relative to mine changed with the passing of time - it appeared to drop on the horizon, as would be expected, as the earth rotated away from it toward the east.
Each night as the sun set, it would then become visible once again in the same portion of the sky.
So, let's suppose the sun and moon rotate in a circular motion over the earth as it does according to FET, and let's assume the earth is not rotating as it does in RET.
How then, is it possible for the comet's location to appear to drop on the horizon as if it were "setting" and then appear back in its original location the next day? If the earth isn't rotating away from the comet and the comet is just moving away from us, it's almost like the comet is teleporting back to it's original location in the sky each night, yet it is clear that it fades each night, as though it is moving away from us, yet it's location gets reset?
If you assume FET, then it is apparent that this comet is not behaving in a way that makes any sense whatsoever. If you assume RET, the comet is moving in a way that is consistent.
So, how does FET explain the inconsistent behavior of the comet observed in this case?
