What is the timing mechanism that triggers the spiral out and then back in? Plus, since the Sun and Moon are (presumably) denser than the Earth's atmosphere, what's keeping them from falling to Earth through the less dense atmosphere? A magic utterly transparent and frictionless dome is it? What is it made of? How does it transmit the Sun's radiation so effectively and efficiently?

+Woody. One of the reasons Cook never lost a man to scurvy was that he used reverse psychology in getting his men to eat sauerkraut. Sauerkraut is one of the best sources of Vitamin C you can get (and being a preserved food it lasts for absolute ages), but it's an acquired taste to say the least. So he convinced his men that it was usually only a food that the officers were allowed to eat, but offered it to the lower ranks as a sign of respect. The lower ranking crew members then thought they were getting something special so they happily ate the sauerkraut. If he'd made them eat the stuff half of them probably would have refused, but pulling that little trick was a stroke of genius on his part.

[@roadwarriormedia1734]

One thing I’ve found myself using to debunk the Flat Earth model, is transoceanic navigation. During my time in the Navy, part of my duties involved navigation. While in school learning to use our horribly outdated VMS (Voyage Management System), we learned how to plot routes across the pacific. In the system we used it was easiest to initially plot the route as a Great Circle route. Which is a “straight” line from point A to point B. The system does take into account curvature, however in the older systems, it wasn’t smart enough to calculate the necessary course changes required to maintain a Great Circle route. Ships wouldn’t be able to accurately follow a Great Circle route, because they would need to maintain a constant turn. To correct this, we would take our plotted route, and add waypoints every 100 nautical miles or so along the route. By doing so, we can create shorter headings which mitigate the effects of earth’s curvature, allowing us to drive straight routes, and make a turn at each waypoint to our new heading. Now, the problem with doing this on the flat earth model, is that a route western route across the pacific would require each heading change be made to the right, or north. In reality, if the many routes I have both plotted, and taken across the pacific, when sailing west, we always had to make heading changes to the left, or south, in order to maintain the route. Flat earthers always tell us to accept reality, well the reality is that trans oceanic voyages, do not make sense on your flat earth model.

Yet, the 'heliocentric/globe' model matches reality, is consistent, fits observations, doesn't require contrived explanations and every element fits into a cohesive description of the universe we see.

Correct. In reality... In HIS reality which is different from ours.

[@TheKitsuneCavalier]

You have got to love that in Dubay's own footage the sun sets from left to right in the Antarctic, while it sets from right to left in the Arctic.

[@epifloyd7357]

When really even when the sun is on its "biggest circle", it shouldn't be visible from one point in the antarctic for so long, because the antarctic is an ice wall around the perimeter. No matter where you stand on that perimeter you should never see something circling you unless it goes outside of the perimeter itself. Utter idiocy

Pet peeve. It’s not “4 times smaller.” It’s “1/4 of.” If you’re multiplying a positive value, you have to come up with a larger number at the end

@Gleem (The original comment was in the reply of the comment by MCToon. It got flooded. so I wish to restart the convo here.) Gleem, a Flat Earther says scientists aren’t able to explain dark matter. Hence globe earth fails it seems. My message to him: Do you even know what dark matter is? First do you even know how to solve the Schrodinger equation for a Hydrogen atom? Without knowing basics just don’t jump on to things you cannot even comprehend.

[@souravsuresh2766]

Reply from @Gleem "Do you even know what dark matter is" Nope nobody does as its a placeholder label for something which they do not have a clue about same as dark energy! " First do you even know how to solve the Schrodinger equation for a Hydrogen atom?" Depends, I mean I would immediate turn to Dirac's Solution as Paul is my fav scientist. What does QED have to do with gravity and dark matter? "Without knowing basics just don’t jump on to things you cannot even comprehend. " Cool story bro now can you tell all of your friends in here then as I know about this complex stuff as well as the easy stuff which allows me to ask you questions you cannot answer: 1/. THE GLOBE DOES NOT HAVE A WORKING MODEL! = Show me a working scientific globe earth model WITHOUT the need for 2 dark sky daddies and broken physics on the sun = YOU CANT 2/. GRAVITY MUST NOT BE CORRECT! = Show me a working scientific theory of gravity at the particle scale or cosmic scale? = YOU CANT 3/. YOU CANNOT USE THE ANGULAR SIZE FORMULA / SMALL ANGLE APPROXIMATION! = Show me a working perspective model as NASA state there is not one in February 2020 = YOU CANT 4/. YOU HAVE NOT DEBUNKED A THING ON THE FLAT EARTH MODEL AS YOU HAVE NOT TESTED IT = All your "flat earth models" are designed to fail, show me one which accounts for perspective and refraction being the imaginary curve which you have tested? = YOU CANT

[@souravsuresh2766]

@Gleem Wrong. ‘You’ don’t know what dark matter is. Many physicists do. I’m pretty sure you can’t solve it (forget about solving, I don’t even think you understand). Paul is your favourite scientist? Do you know or understand anything about his work? And it’s not QED, it’s Quantum Mechanics. It’s very very evident that you don’t know anything and you act as if you do. Looks like you are just a phoney. What do you mean by what Quantum Mechanics has anything to do with gravity and dark matter?? It’s basics and it’s used everywhere in the road to higher physics. Explaining physics to a child who doesn’t know to add numbers is futile. And I don’t see any point in proving or disproving anything to you if you don’t even know basic physics. “complex stuff”?? What complex stuff are you talking about? If you feel that solving Schrödinger eqn for Hydrogen-like atoms is complex, then I think it’s very clear that you aren’t smart enough to talk physics for proving something.

The fact that he recognises that Canada and the UK are on similar latitudes but then fails to see the massive difference between our winters - it just further shits all over the US education system and lack of understanding of differences between regions.

[@UnkleRiceYo]

One question about flat earth that's always baffled me is the fact that they never explain why exactly the sun travels in this circular motion... like what forces are at play? Why is it bound to circular motion? What is keeping it from moving in a straight line? They just seem to say "it moves in a circle above the plane" and then it never dawns on them that thats a weird physical motion that needs explaining

[@ericb3157]

"goddoesit." that's the BEST answer they have EVER come up with for ANYTHING. which contradicts their OWN stupid rhetoric: "god makes a fake horizon to fool you AND god will punish you for believing earth is a globe."

[@phillipkidd762]

SMD: whenever flatists mention the sun, it is useful to point out that in Sydney, Australia the sun rises SOUTH of east and sets SOUTH of west throughout summer, even though the sun is ALWAYS north of Sydney. And at the southern simmer solstice it rises DUE SOUTH EAST. Even the Sun is laughing at flatism.

Also, I would like to point out that Iceland, the UK, etc... are MUCH larger than islands at comparable latitude in the south, so there will be much more variation and more species anyway.

Does Iceland's geological activity also play a factor?

So if the sun is moving away... Why does it dip below the horizon? I mean come on, his own video debunks his whole argument. I mean I know they think the Sun works like a flash light, but can't explain why the light from it reflects off other planets in our solar system. It's a whole new level of stupid every time I watch one of their videos of them with their "gotcha" moment, or trying to find some way to twist reality and physics to fit their asinine nitrative.
