Flat Earth Theory / Re: No flat earth model can explain this case

« on: March 02, 2018, 06:34:44 PM »

How about we stick to the topic. There is no way to explain the case I described using a flat earth so I don't expect much discussion other than some that are honest to concede that it can't be done.

There is no way to explain using the Round Earth model the case I described, where if you dig a hole deep enough you will fall out into space on the other side. How do you explain falling out into space on the other side?

Please be honest and admit that it can't be explained.

Sorry, I wasn't following your off topic discussion. Carry on I guess.

Sydney, I stated a case that can't be explained by a FE model. So any reply would have to simply refute my claim. No question required.

Even if your theory of refraction actually did occur, it can't explain the consistent observations of simultaneous sunrises and sunsets all around the Earth because if that were the cause of one person seeing not seeing the real direction of the sun but simply the effect of refraction, then you would expect the effect to be somewhat random and not 100% consistent with what is predicted by a spherical Earth. Inconsistencies in the atmosphere from day to day and across the Earth would result in some variation to some observer at one of the points of observation yet we don't see that. We see consistent and predictable simultaneous sunsets and sunrises that is quite easily explained by a spherical Earth with no appeal optical illusions.

My case is very simple. Two stationary observers viewing the sun. One viewing the sunset where the sun is moving downwards below the horizon and the other viewing the sunrise where the sun is moving upwards coming over the horizon. In this case, because the observers are stationary and the sun is moving against the horizon as the frame of reference, you can be confident that the direction of the movement of the sun is the real direction. A flat earth cannot explain this case. Only a sphere can where one observer is on one side moving away from the earth (sunset) and the other observer is on the other side moving towards the sun (sunrise). There is no other physical model that can explain this case if you assume a single sun.

If you're going to reply, please stick to this specific case and video examples don't really make sense here.
