Flat Earth Theory / Re: Moonphases, and other questions
« on: December 08, 2017, 06:42:28 PM »

1) If the moon and sun are circling above the earth how is it that the moon seems to be in the same phase in all parts of the world. i have friends with who i checked this with.
I have asked this same question multiple times, never received an explanation.

The idea of sun&moon circling above us also would imply that we cycle through the phases of the moon each day (full orbit of sun, partial orbit of moon)

If the sun and moon are on a similar plane thousands of miles up, we should never be able to see a completely illuminated full/circular moon.

Funny how flat Earth belief can't explain some things that are really basic.

Have you attempted to perform a simple seach on the Wiki or the forums for your query?

Not many people are going to sit here answering your questions unless you can show that you have done some basic research on the subject and are able to provide interesting content to discuss.

Hi yes I did but the wiki page (the one about moonphases) only answers the question that why is the orientation of the moon changing when viewed from other parts of the earth. My question is about the phase itself.

 Lets say that the moons one side is illuminated, but the other isnt. I see the moons light side but my friend at the other end ofntje world should now see the dark side of tje moon according to FE theory.

What is the answer for this? Or where is it in the wiki?

See my comments in this thread.

No no no no. If i look at a rubiks cube from 10 meters and only see its 3 faces, no matter how far i go i wont be able to see its backside

Besides that if i stand in africa and a friend stands in the usa if the moon is lets say at the average point between us but 2000 miles high then there is no way for us to see its same side at the same time. But we  do.

How can you explain that?

Hi! Im interested in FE theory, and i was thinking about it but I still dont understand some aspects of it. Could someone help me out?

1) If the moon and sun are circling above the earth how is it that the moon seems to be in the same phase in all parts of the world. i have friends with who i checked this with.

2) If the moon and sun are 2000 miles away, how is it that if i get on a plane, the sun stays the same size?

3) Why cant i see the sun when its night? i mean i can see much smaller stars on the dome, but i cant see the sun which is not that far away compared to the height of the dome. Also it should fade to a more dimmed sun as it move away from my location
