Yeah, what Thor is saying is that in winter you'll have nighttime when facing a different way than in summer. So on the equator, you would basically be looking at the stars (at night) when you are exactly on the other side of the planet, so you WOULD get a totally different view.


It's funny though, because he once again showed he's ignorant to even the most basic concepts on the subject, even ones that the newest of hobbyists figure out fairly quickly.

Yeah, it didn't click with me at first that even though the same stars are "available" for viewing, you only actually see them at night, and where you are at nighttime changes.
On the other hand, if we were to look at the stars with some sort of a device that can see them during the day as well as night, you would always see the same stars over the 24 hour period regardless of time of year.

Nope your all wrong - take an orange, hold it up - place it 1 foot besides light -notice the side that's lite - carefully revolve/orbit it to the to the other side - now the other side of that orange is lite!

Day and Night should be completely reversed 6 months of the year, wake up globbies, your being fooled!

Also since all your proofs have been incontrovertible debunked and no one can answer my questions, you're all just ignorant blatant lying atheist triggered trollers who obviously lost and are now sore about it, k holding pity party soon.

yes it does, 2 d perspective and 3d perspective are not even close, face it not knowing this mean you are incontrovertibly revealed as a simpleton.


You keep claiming I don't understand perspective, but it's obvious it is you who doesn't understand it. A 3d sun moving away from you on a flat Earth should shrink and eventually be lost to sight (assuming the sun isn't sending highly visible, blinding rays of light in all directions, which it is), but NEVER pass below the horizon. The "top" of the horizon is always 0° (barring rising landmasses). Perspective doesn't change that. The sun is always above the flat Earth, so it can never be hidden BY the Earth, other than by the aforementioned rising landmasses, and only in localized areas. Here's some motherfucking perspective for you: you are literally claiming that an object in between two other objects can have an object on one side hide the other object on the other side. Preposterous.

/e we call what I just did to you "reductio ad absurdum." You probably don't even realize how wrecked you just got.

Although after thinking about it, I still don't think the tilt matters. Even if we had 0 tilt, you'd have pretty much the same effect. If you aren't on the equator, you'll still have some section of the sky above the pole that's always in your hemispheric view. And even though we wouldn't have seasons, you would still see different sections of the sky at night for different months.
Unless I'm missing something here.

Just Google it. Probably find a better explanation than I could give.

I already addresses that, he said atmospheric lensing and ran the fuck away when I asked him to explain how it bends light thousands of miles in just 6000 miles.

I wonder why people in the southern hemisphere can never see the star Polaris from a flat Earth.

I wonder why people in the northern hemisphere need to be close to the equator to see the Southern Cross.

Yeah, I challenged him on lensing a few times too. No excuse has been forthcoming for me either, because he doesn't have one. But you already know that.

Here's you - "I understand 3d perspective - here my 2d drawing to prove it"
