If you guys want to know how prediction of the eclipses work, open any astronomy textbook or consult any astronomy source on the topic. That's how it is predicted. It's all there. If you are curious about the details, look into it. It has nothing to do with the Wiki.
I got really confused now.1.) There is a
real world where we live and observe things.
2.) There is a controversy about this world to be an oblate spheroid and related conspiracies, so Flat Earth Theory was created.
3.) Based on that (2), Flath Earth Society Forum was created.
4.) On this Forum (3) a Wiki was created to explain how this our real world (1) works based on 2.
So, according to Tom Bishop, when participants try to understand something from 1 on 2, they
should NOT rely on 3 and 4 ??
If you really want to make some points on 2 upon educated and not ignorant people, it is better to be prepared to answer all kinds of questions on 4.
If when things got ugly, you say 4 is not the place for answers,
what the purpose of 4 (and 3) anyway?
