Destroying Flat Earth Without Using Science - Part 2: The Stars

As we learned in the previous installment of this series, we don't need any science whatsoever to prove that the earth isn't flat. We just have to look at things in the sky with our eyeballs. In fact, that's how we figured out the earth is a sphere thousands of years ago, before science even existed. Last time we looked at the moon, so today let's look at the stars. How do they move through the sky, and can we make sense of it on a flat earth? Spoiler: no, we definitely can't. But be a lamb and watch anyway, would you?

I look at Jupiter and saturn through my telescope put Dave on in my headphones it's a great time 😅

[@DaveTexas]

This has been my argument for years. I live in North America and used to be a professional photographer. As an astronomy buff, I’ve done time exposures of the stars rotating around Polaris. On my first trip to Australia, I was very eager to spend some time looking at the southern sky. We drove about four hours west from Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road to view all the rock formations along the coast one day. We stayed out there into the nighttime, where we were able to see the night sky on a moonless night with essentially no light pollution. It was the best view of the night sky I think I’ve ever experienced. While we were out there with a telescope and my Hasselblad (this was nearly 25 years ago, when I was shooting medium-format film), I did a couple of lengthy time exposures pointed toward Sigma Octantis. I can say that I’ve seen the rotation of the Earth in respect to both pole stars with my own eyes. There is no way to debunk the physical reality of that in a way that even comes close to scientific. This is one of the ways of "proving" the globe Earth that the majority of flerfers can’t or won’t respond to. As hard as those tiny little rusty gears in their heads turn, they can’t come up with an explanation that makes sense even at their level of "logic." I have to add that the other super-cool thing I discovered (that I didn’t know before my trip) was that the equatorial constellations - the ones visible from both hemispheres - all look upside-down from the Southern Hemisphere. The very first constellation I noticed at night in Australia was Orion - but he was upside-down! It makes sense when you think about it, but it blew my mind when I first saw it.

[@IFS]

Great comment! I experienced a similar Wow moment to yours when in the '90s I was sailing a 10m sailboat far offshore going around the top end of Aus (delivery job). That first night was clear skies and I had a complete 360° water horizon and no light pollution was my astronomy Wow experience, something that is impossible to capture even on a Hasselblad.

[@nikolaush3414]

My theory is - and so far no flat earther refuted this - is that they never leave the basement. They certainly don't travel anywhere. If they were to step on an airplane, the number of inconsistencies with their theory would be shocking. Flying around the globe from west to east you could kinda spare your breath for lenthgy explanations, it's self explanatory and obvious.

True story: Yesterday I was walking into Walmart just after sunset and I saw a bunch of people standing around staring at the sky. I overheard them saying "they aren't moving they can't be airplanes" and "you think they're Chinese balloons?" and "obvious UFOs!" Intrigued I followed their eyes to see what they were looking at. I noticed two bright lights above the western horizon. For a second I questioned what they could be, and then I realized what I was looking at. Jupiter and Venus. Just an example of how people can see something they aren't used to in the sky and instantly make up fantastical explanations for what they are even though the answer is simple and well recorded.

I will never understand how they don't get that the stars are so far away. I even did an experiment myself to show why we don't see the stars move. I took a camera with a high optical zoom and zoomed in on something 1.25 kilometers away and moved the camera around slightly. Lo and behold, nothing really changed perspective at that distance. If we made that 1.25 kilometers the distance between here and Alpha Centauri, Earth's orbit would have a diameter of around a centimeter, I believe. It's something super negligible like that. Like just trying to hold the camera still because I was stupid and didn't use a tripod I was moving the camera around more than the scale Earth orbit. It's just so dumb.

I took a torchlight one evening and stood at a distance where it looked the same size as the moon. Took a photo of the torch and moon in the same picture, looking the same size. Then measured the distance of the camera from the torch, and the width of the light. I then looked up the diameter of the moon, divided it by the width of the torchlight (to get my scale factor) then multiplied that by the distance between the torch and the camera. It's a pretty rudimentary experiment, but it gave the distance of the moon from earth in the correct ballpark. Completely debunks the whole "if it's so far away, we wouldn't be able to see it" argument.

This is actually one of my favorite proofs for the earth being a sphere.

The fact that people looking in completely different directions can somehow see the southern cross is completely astounding to me according to the flat earth “model”. Better yet, where even is the southern cross on the flat earth? Think about it, since the flat earth map is a projection of the globe flattening out the edges, where can the southern cross be for literally every person to see it in the southern hemisphere? And, that’s only 1 of the millions of stars out there that can be seen only in the southern hemisphere (for the most part)

I honestly think that very very few genuinely believe that the world is flat. By far the majority of Flat Earthers want to step outside mainstream society, and proclaiming to believe that the Earth is flat is their mechanism for achieving it. Being part of an antisocial subculture makes those people feel important, and it is something that has been going on forever. Goths, Skinheads, Teddy Boys, Hippys, Sloans etc. I expect they enjoy making their arguments, and become ecstatic if they can make a scientist frustrated. And is believing in a Flat Earth so very different in believing in a God? I don't think so.

[@oldmusician5236]

@@TrevorDennis100 I wish that were true. There will be some, but if you watch their interviews and enter into discourse with them, I think you will see that the 'feeling special' aspect is only element. I have been trying for weeks to offer explanations and logical arguments against it, and their answers indicate an almost total lack of intelligence and understanding of maths and science. If they were more intelligent, I would expect more complex and reasoned arguments. If you want to prove how smart you are, you wouldn't knowingly say something like 'the blue sky (daytime) is behind the moon' or 'There is no gravity. It is buoyancy and density'. or 'the farther away an object is , the larger the angle' It even makes children laugh. This DOES fit with a psychological NEED to feel 'special' because they never have. There is also a large community of fundamentalist Christians whose literal interpretation of Genesis is often their reason for seeking an alternative model to give them comfort. There is also a large overlap of authority-fearing conspiracy theorists in general. To them, scientists are ALL lying as part of a centuries long attempt to control us. At this point, it becomes a paranoid delusion and, as such, is almost impossible to break free from.

Dave Farina, i think you’ll be astonished by this person’s stupidity. So there was this flat earther T B (lets call him TB) after we talked back and fourth about Eratosthenes experiment with shadow angles, i asked him to refute the observation that stars rotate clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and stars rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. He proceeded by claiming i am begging the question and circular reasoning by saying the word hemisphere. I then proceeded to say “stars rotate counterclockwise in the UK and clockwise in australia” That guy proceeded to say “You think stars rotate west to east? All stars go east to west” The stupidity…

I doubt Professor Dave will be astonished. Outright denial, as well as lying and refusal to understand, is common among flat Earthers.

Hello and goodbye to Toma Hawk, who posted some question about the supposed impossibility of circumpolar navigation (or "orbit", "vertically"). Unfortunately, he deleted the thread before I could capture the responses from Professor Dave and others explaining that such journeys have in fact been made. *Toma Hawk* 5 hours ago If man could orbit the Earth horizontally, why couldn't he do the same vertically? From some point, heading north or south and back to the tee through the poles?, Despite technological advances, no one was able to do so, knowing that the only mission that tried to do so was an American in 1958, consisting of 6 or 7 men and women, who disappeared in the Antarctic and had no trace, to this day despite the efforts of the United States military, which has searched since then and continues to do. *rhetorical question* 1 second ago It's funny you should mention Antarctica 1958, since that was when the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (CTAE) successfully completed the first overland crossing of Antarctica, via the South Pole.
