Flat Earth Theory / Re: Coriolis effect in FET
« on: January 17, 2015, 12:40:16 AM »How do you know? I don't believe you have stood on the equator and fired a cannon north or south, so you cannot definitively say that this doesn't happen.The answer we've given in the past to this question is that the stars have a slight gravitational field. This is how the variation of g at high altitudes is explained. The stars are also rotating above the earth at one rotation per 24 hours. That bullets and artillery shells are are deflected is because the stars are pulling the bullet.Interesting. This has a predictable consequence: if you stand at the equator and fire a canon either towards north (towards north pole) or towards south (towards the opposite direction), the coriolis effect would be stronger in the south direction than in the north direction.
Which is not what we observe so your theory is wrong.
