Flat earth theory is BS.
Earth is actually a sphere contrary to the beliefs of some people

Cool, thanks for proving space is really a body of water. :rofl:

Still needed body of water + focused light which refracts though the lens of the glass

challenge still remains to create a rainbow indoors with just some water drops and a light

Raindrops fracturing light is enough in order to create the rainbows we observe -- even without a dome being present. Earlier I said reflecting, and even though raindrops do have a reflective quality, you corrected me by saying they fracture the light. And you were right.

So now I would like you to prove to me that there is a dome which causes the rainbow effect.


Notice how in Russians video in post #682, it is the lens of the glass that is refracting the light - not the water.

Where do you think think the lens is outdoors?

it all boils down to one simple fact, you wouldn't be able to convince Card the earth is round unless you literally took him to space in a space ship. At which time he'd suggest you tricked him and you're actually in a elaborate CGI chamber. He claims others are close minded but would cling to his beliefs up to the very second he's pushed out into space and instantly freezes to death, because at his core he's a dirty hypocrite who is unable to actually own his own positions for fear that he'll realize he's been the fool guilty of his own critiques all along.

You'd be able to convince me the Earth is a ball if you had some logical reasoning, but my bones will probably turn to dust if I wait for that from you, so keep on straw-manning, that's about all we can expect from you.

Yeah, keep moving those goalposts. Every time you get wrecked, just ask for more.
The challenge was to create a rainbow indoors with no mirror. This experiment shows EXACTLY how a rainbow works. You have a spherical body of water (a water droplet or water in a jar) and a light that shines through it. That's it. No magical skydome reflections required.

Besides, if you understood anything at all about physics you'd realize that the reflecting skydome has nothing to do with sticking a mirror into water to make rainbows. The mirror in water just creates a prism shape, you can just as easily take a glass prism and make the same rainbow. How on earth would a reflective dome make a rainbow appear in a garden hose spray? This whole idea was proposed by children who saw the mirror in water experiment in their grade 5 science class and thought that rainbows always require some kind of a mirror to happen. They don't. And a reflective dome wouldn't make a rainbow appear anyway, even if it existed.

My challenge was to create a rainbow indoors with justa shower head and a lamp, I never said it was impossible to create a rainbow indoors. You needed 2 x curved glass surfaces to refract the light and a body of water to disperse the light, and a way to focus the light. I mean what do you think a mirror is made of. You couldn't show it without refracting the light though a lens, so still waiting for your to do it without refracting the light.

Evens stoners know that when you refract light though a prism it separates into the visible em spectrum.
