The Final Experiment (Flat Earth Bites The Dust)

[prodromos]

There is no way to prove that, people don't live but on the very edge of Antarctica.

Of course there is. There are manned research stations all around Antarctica. They all experience 24Hr sun during the peak of Summer

The easiest point to reach is off the southern parts of south America. The video is from the coastal area of Antarctica, there is even a guy with short sleeves on in one of the videos, Antarctica is vast.

It's the 5th largest continent, and if it is not windy then it can be quite pleasant in the sun for short periods of time (during Summer)

Those who tried to circle it in the 1800s logged something like 60000 miles give or take, because it is an ice wall, not a continent.

In 2022, Lisa Blair completed the Antarctic Cup Yatch race solo in under 93 days. The distance circumnavigating Antarctica below the 40th parallel is between 14000 and 16000 nautical miles (16110 - 18412 miles).

The sun is not always in view in the videos provided in this thread. Which way did the sun go after it passes our view left in the second video? Did it go behind them? If so why did they not make effort to record that? The solid proof of anything would be continuing to see the sun as it goes.

As I have told you, the videos are interactive. You can adjust the view so that the sun stays in picture. Just click on the “Watch on YouTube” on the bottom of the video you want to watch. Then while watching on YouTube use the mouse if you’re using a computer to move the picture so that the sun always stays in view. To illustrate this here are some screen shots I took on my phone for the second video at the same 4 second timestamp. The sun is in different locations on screen in each screenshot because I paused the video and moved my phone around.

Yes, the light source is the sun, the following image shows an approximation of what they experienced and why there is always light at that time of year in that spot.

View attachment 372951
The little gray dot is an approximation of where they are and the orange shows the path of the sun, at different times of year that path widens and moves, thus different parts of the land get different amounts of light.

My drawing is not a perfect representation, and from looking at the videos more closely now, in the 360 view on my phone, the path is more directly over them than what I drew, from what we can see in the videos the sun looks to be pretty much over them the whole time, it really does not look like it is millions of miles away, but rather circling directly above them. For some reason the path of the sun gets close to that spot at certain times of year, then moves back and expands at other times of the year.
The correction my image needs is for the path to be over the grey dot.

So why do people in the Northern and Southern Polar regions both state that the sun appears in the sky during night time hours at certain periods in the year?

Because that cannot be explained by a flat earth.

It is possible to see webcams live from Abisko, I'm unsure if they cover all 360 degrees and now in winter it's the abscence of sun that shows the effects of latitude. They are there so we southerners can see aurora borealis more than once (in my case twice) in a lifetime.

Fiction

James cooks second expedition. 60000 miles.
Using a globe model people try to explain away the large millage, but the truth makes clear why it took so long.

Can you draw or show an image explaining how it is that the sun can be seen so close from the supposed bottom of the world? From what we see in the videos the flat earth model, as the image I gave, makes the most sense.

They both see it at the same time?
The suns path itself moves around the land. At different times of year different amounts of light can be seen.

This is what I will attempt to do, get a pen pal in Asia, I am in Texas, and I will take a picture of the morning sun and request they take a picture also on the same day, same relative time. We will both see the sun and likely also the moon, because the earth is not a ball.


In my opinion the TFE, shows that the sun is not millions of miles away, it is circling above us.

So why when it is summer in the Artic does the Arctic have 24 hours of continuous sunlight, while it is winter in the Antarctic, and they have 24 hours of darkness? (The opposite happens when it is winter in the Arctic, and summer in the Antarctic).

No, that's not what I said. I said "So why do people in the Northern and Southern Polar regions both state that the sun appears in the sky during night time hours at certain periods in the year?

Because that cannot be explained by a flat earth."

And it can't be explained by a flat earth because the way the sun moves around a flat earth does not allow for such a thing to happen. You cannot have a midnight sun on a flat earth, it's impossible.

Your penpal idea is frankly idiotic because you explain what you'd see, but then go "But that's impossible because the earth is flat." You'd have the evidence before you and just dismiss it because of your desire for your interpretation of the Bible to be correct, which directly contradicts God's own creation.

By they you mean the people,mainly scientists, on the coast of the artic, no ones lives deep in the artic to testify what the sunshine is like.

The suns path moves around and grows and shrinks at different times of year, that is why people see different amounts of light.

When they have 24 hours of sun, not just light, the sun itself as we can see in the videos on this thread, how is it that people on the opposite side of the ball have light? For example Greenland and Alaska and parts of Canada.

That's what we're saying: when there's 24 hours of light in the Arctic, there's 24 hours of darkness in the Antarctic, and when there's 24 hours of light in the Antarctic, there's 24 hours of darkness in the Arctic. This is a well known phenomenon enough to be widely known as fact. And it cannot be explained by a flat earth.

No, Lord willingly I will do it right with video and everything. Whatever the result will be shown.

And if the result shows that the Earth is a round globe by showing that when the sun is at two different positions in the sky because you're at two different locations?

 

[contratodo]

That's what we're saying: when there's 24 hours of light in the Arctic, there's 24 hours of darkness in the Antarctic, and when there's 24 hours of light in the Antarctic, there's 24 hours of darkness in the Arctic. This is a well known phenomenon enough to be widely known as fact. And it cannot be explained by a flat earth

There is no proof of that because people only live in the coastal parts of those vast regions. The image I gave explains it rather well, when the sun is at the lowest point of that path, only the Antarctic is being very brightly lit.

 

[contratodo]

I would not hide any of the results but rather let the images and video speak for themselves.

Why would it at all be different to see the sun at the coast versus seeing it further inland? That makes absolutely no sense. The sun is the sun whether I'm at the coast or inland. It's a pointless and stupid distinction.

No-one hides any results, while you and your ilk just blindly ignore the results.

You didn't answer my question: And if the result shows that the Earth is a round globe by showing that when the sun is at two different positions in the sky because you're at two different locations?

If the sun is a giant ball many times bigger than earth and millions of miles away, why do we all experience dawn? A gradual change from dark to light. Should it not be an immediate change, a hard line between light and dark?

The result of my experiment I intend to do with an pen pal? I would not hide any of the results.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Not what I'm asking. What I'm asking and what you seem unable to clean from my question is simple: if the 'experiment' shows that the Earth is a round globe, would you accept that the Earth is a round globe and not a flat disc?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

If the sun is a giant ball many times bigger than earth and millions of miles away, why do we all experience dawn? A gradual change from dark to light.

Because the Earth spins on its axis as it rotates around the Sun. That's how we get dawn.

Should it not be an immediate change, a hard line between light and dark?

No.
