This was already discussed indirectly

Try opposite ends of the earth
When its daytime my side (South Afr) its night in the USA and visa versa

Now with the flat earth model Darrel proposed in the eclipse thread the sun and moon make a circuit around the circumference of the earth
which fits in with your model of the sun being below the dome
http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=77042390&f=27&o=10

However that can only be valid if the sun has a unidirectional source of light or the entire earth will have a constant source of sunlight
By your own admission no proof of this exists

if i shine a torch up to the sky at night, how come i can't see the spot it's pointed at? or if i light a candle outside at night, how come it suddenly doesn't turn the entire suburb I live in into like daylight?
light has a limit/radius....that is why thousands of miles away in USA u can't see the suns light when night time in Africa......not to mention the fact that humans have limited vision anyway.

That being the case (as per the model presented in the vid from the eclipse thread) ,

Also do you believe the sun to be a globe body providing and omni directional source of light
or a flat body providing a uni direction source of light?

(question was based on the day and night cycle)

due to myself not having the technology to strap on a jet pack & breathing apparatus, and fly up the 3000 miles to the sun and personally see first hand what it is......I can only use my personal, first-hand observations and deduce that it could be a sphere or a flat disc, but most certainly does have a (limited) uni direction of light.

... do you still believe the sun to be a unidirectional source of light?
Based on the argument you just provided, it can be an omni-direction globe source of light with the light not being strong enough to light up the opposite ends of the FE model above causing night

I agree more towards the omni-direction source of light argument

So I take it you got it wrong here than?

Fair enough, but them how can we be sure of all your other previous claims?
Either you making facts up as you go along or really unsure how the world really works

Another problem with model in vid above;



The sun's distance from will you change being furthest from you at night, however it will still be above you

That being the case how do humans see the sun "set" in the horizon?
If its a case of the light not being strong enough then the sun should still be visible as a bright star at night (in the model above) not disappearing below the horizon

With sun constantly above you its impossible even with "perspective", unless its not below the dome but actually outside and rotates around the earth as Card_Sultan proposed.
