Pseudo science answers nothing.

It just raises more questions, and makes everyone involved look like a potato.

Move to Joker or Religious forum please?

The thing is, flat earther's can explain every phenomena in a way that seems to support flat Earth.

The problem is their explanations are ad hoc and contradict themselves when questioned about multiple phenomena.

The Earth being an oblate spheroid is the only explanation that works for every phenomena.

1. Depends on your perspective, what lense you choose - aka where you place the camera.

2. In the FE Model they say it's 38 miles across and 3500 miles up. I could show you how to calculate this with parallax but since we both know you won't watch anything besides your bias, so that would be pointless.

3. Any reason to fail? If you dont know what your doing, perhaps.

4. because the Light is relative to your local perspective - not relative to the entire earth - that's why it can appear to be setting in India to the west while it appears to be rising to the east in NYC

What changes the direction of light - your local perspective of the orbiting sun. Another theory is that the Sun is actually a giant ball of electricity and as it's passing your sky it excites the noble gases in the air to create light, so daylight could be a combination of direct sunlight, reflection off the dome and excited Noble gases.

How much, in inches or feet or meters, should the bottom of the object be obscured if it is centered on the Camera like so. Just placing the camera parallel to the ground pointing at the object.

If the object was a ruler, how high would the ground appear to raise such that the bottom of the ruler is obscured?

But rulers aren't round
Haha , globe earth debunked.

Wow, sounds like someone really smart came up with this "Flat Earth Theory" - think his name was like God or something like that.

Sorry not true, you just fail in fully understanding them.

Wrong Again , NDT clearly says the earth is pear shaped - so is that why every "image" Nasa shows is a perfect sphere, that a huge problem everyone clearly fails to notice, even their Astro-priests can't get their stortys straight.

Damn astro-priests, haven't you had enough of them yet - telling you what to think?

lol now his defense is that God made it that way and everyone should just accept it

clearly a religious view and doesn't belong here

How is that any different than thinking because Newton said something and you outta believe it?
Is that the reason you blindly believe anything astro-science says with a shred of proof? Because you hate God - wow such a rebel.
And actually Einstein debunked Newtonian gravity, saying it wasn't the mass of the earth but the curvature of spacetime - but that hasn't stopped you in believing the fantasy has it?
And since they were men of "science" this question, as well as the nature of our reality, clearly belongs here.
