Title: I have some questions about distances
Post by: mathgii4 on February 14, 2018, 04:46:48 PM
I am arguing that the Earth is flat in a research paper and I would like to find some points of information.  Can anyone tell me the distance between the Earth and Moon/Sun?  Also, how do the Sun and Moon move around the Earth?

In circles above the flat disk.

I should warn you, that if your research paper is going to be graded by anyone in the public school system or in university, you're sorely mistaken for picking a bad topic. You won't win this debate with your teacher/professor about your grade. I suggest that, even if you believe the Earth is flat, you pick a different topic.

Pretty low-grade research if it rests on canvassing random strangers on the internet, small wonder guardians like John (above) are necessary to keep the truth alive.

You should learn the trigonometry necessary to work out why there is the possibility of options here, and see which side is more rigorous in their approach, that kind of research may impress your tutors, unless you come from Jesusland, in which case it was the sky fairy.
