Yo Guys, I gotta Red Pill you about the real shape of the Earth

[Primalredemption]

I can tell you've done your research as you've got an answer for pretty much everything. I'm new to the flat Earth thing myself, and I mostly like this new theory except that it doesn't explain why planes don't fly in the southern hemisphere, and that was a big selling point for me.

Well I'd be interested to discuss this with you- do you have any proof that flights don't actually take place in the Southern Hemisphere? From what I've researched Quantas airlines has one between South American and Australia. And I've spoken with a couple people who have taken these southern flights.

You guys seem like you would be interested in these Magic Beans. 100% legit confirmed with science. $100 a bean

No Hewson, the only magic around these parts is how papet mache with tin foil managed to land on the moon, and people like you actual believe it. That's magic. Hmm maybe that's why it's called *holly wood*- the wood of choice for *magical wands*.

Listen man, I hear you.

You drive a hard bargain, there is no need to get testy. How about $75 a bean?

Here is a link to the science to back it up. http://www.science-sparks.com/2016/0...anstalk-beans/

The cringe is palpable.

Go troll elsewhere. This is for intellectual discussion only.

Why can't it be flat and concave like someone doughnut stamped the ground or Like the sun is a dog on a chain and basically just ran a hole in the ice.

You mean like Toroidal? I think the big issue with these shapes is the pole stars rotating in opposite direction in the north and south hemispheres. This means the surface of earth is a complete sphere.

The Lunar eclipse has in fact been documented by the Royal Astronomical Society to take place while the Sun and Moon are both visible in the sky at the same time. Now think about this for just one second. If the Sun and Moon are both in the sky at the same time, how can the Earth's shadow possibly be the cause of the Lunar eclipse? It can't.

Sure it can. When one is near the horizon on one side of the Earth and the other is near the horizon on the other side of the earth. Certainly possible during a partial lunar eclipse.

So in the concave model, the moon must produce it's own light, right? How could we see the moon at all if the Sun was on the other side of whatever-you-call-that-thing-in-the-middle. So it's noon in China and I see a full moon.

So the moon must produce it's own light in your model, yes?

If the moon produces it's own light, then why do we have the phases of the moon?

Well I had about as much "proof" as anyone else has for their theory. I just thought it was an accepted theory for the flat Earth argument. Like that flight that made an emergency stop in Alaska on the way to LA.

And with this model couldn't you just fly in a straight line from one end of the globe too the other since you're going straight through? I mean aside from the celestial sphere of course.

If the earth is an inside sphere as you are proposing, you have a similar problem as regular sphere in aviation in that you would constantly have to correct for altitude.

A plane moving at 600 mph would travel 1 mile every 6 seconds. This is a curvature drop/rise of 8 inches over a distance of 63,360 inches or an angle adjustment of .007 degrees. Now to get an idea how big this angle adjustment is, take out a protractor and make a marking about 8 microns up. Good luck with that though since it's 5 times smaller than the human eye is even capable of seeing xD

So in other words it's insignificant.

Even if it were significant- say 100 feet per mile- the different in air density would be enough to change the lift on the wings to reach equilibrium. You would be entering denser air which applies more upward force upon the wings.
