Flat Earth Theory / Re: Sail east or west along the equator

« on: February 28, 2018, 06:39:15 PM »

doohicky52,  I agree 100% with you if you plot the equator on a Flat Earth chart. The equator forms a circle and you will never encounter the ice ring that surrounds the earth.

See the attached chart for the Ball Earth. If you follow the equator  on the ball earth it forms a line as indicated in red all around the earth or the Tropic of Capricorn in white. If you travel from the eastern side of Australia in the direction of the arrow, on the right side of the chart, you should end up at the western side of Chile, from the direction the arrow  on the left side of the chart indicates. You will have to confirm it on an actual ball earth.

If you travel the same route on the flat earth you will encounter the ice ring that is suppose to surround the earth. The ice ring will be on the eastern side of Australia and on the western side of Chile.

Hi douglips & StinkyOne, thank you for your reply. The centrifugal force is not my problem, this is something I pondered enough when I was young.

Since this FE topic is coming a long way and the theory of the ice ring or wall, logic tells me that  sailors who explored the oceans in the past  must have documented their encounters with the ice ring when they sailed along the equator of the ball earth. There must be archives with this information somewhere.

I see that people do all sorts of experiments to prove the flat earth, some of these experiments are really interesting and this is why I want to find out more about the topic.

I think to prove that the ice ring/ wall really exist  is a small step in the right direction. This is something that should easily be observed, because if you travel south on the ball globe you reach Antarctica. You should reach the ice ring  when you sail or fly along the equator on the ball globe or parallel with the equator,lets say directly from Australia to Chile. What I find is that no one seems to be able to get solid prove of this , but rather try to make assumptions on what the earth should look like  from very high up in the atmosphere.

I will appreciate it if one of the moderators of this forum could respond  to my question or point me to any information with actual documented information on this.( English is not my first language and if  my question is not understandable please ask me to rephrase it)

Flat Earth Theory / Sail east or west along the equator

Good day ,

I am new to your forum and find it very interesting. I always ask myself, since I was 16 years old,  questions like if  the earth spins so fast why don't we fly off the  surface of earth due to centrifugal forces.

It seems like the flat earth debate is an age old debate and that people like Captain James Cook try to circumnavigate Antarctica with out successes.  Are there any documented cases where people sail east or west along the equator( ball earth) and encounter the ice wall that  surrounds the earth according to the FE theory?

I read through your Q&A section but could not see the answer to my question. If it is in the Q&A section please point my to it.
