If The Earth Is Flat Then What Shapes Are The Other Planets?

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

Cool

Now address my posts in here champ

Ill wait

I already have:

You’re just itching to argue about satellites and Van Allen radiation belts, and the coriolis effect, so that you can guise your inaccurate statements but in the end, simple geometry disproves the flat earth theory.

In here asking dumb questions like the one about the speed of cloud’s movement ignoring all principles of relative motion, praying I follow you down a rabbit hole of ignorance. Not gonna happen

There’s no logical reason why the lands of the earth couldn’t be mapped out in a single image if the world was flat.

See, now youre just kinda rambling and arguing semantics

You just said that we were in a closed system on earth meaning that according to you, everything in the atmosphere is rotating at the same rate of speed as the ground below it

All i did was disprove that by showing you how it wouldnt be possible for clouds to move freely in all directions, if that were the case

Again, yall are trying to "outthink" me instead of just reading what im posting for comprehension

You left your question open to interpretation. I've given you credit as being one of the smartest people on this forum, but this isn't your best work. Another smart person is gonna pick your questions apart to gain as much clarity as possible, which is what i tried to do. Be more specific when you're asking questions.

This didn't address my question at all

Again, if all clouds are rotating 1000 mph east with the earth, they would need to be moving 1001 mph west at the same time in order to be moving 1 mph west, relative to you on the ground

And of course, thats complete utter nonsense

And no offense, but youre actually arguing against what @KodeBlue is arguing

If we were in a close spinning system, there wouldnt be anything able to "slow" the clouds, because that thing would also be moving at the same rate if speed as the clouds

Yall gotta stop trying so hard, take a deep breath and actually think

They would not have to be moving at 1001 mph to appear to be moving left. What I said completely makes sense with regards to a frame of reference. That's physics 1&3 stuff breh. Again, think about it. If I'm moving at a rate of 1000 mph to the right while another object is moving at 900 mph to the right, then from my frame of reference it will appear to be moving left at 100 mph. After 1 hour, it's 100 miles behind me, after 2 hours it's 200 miles behind me, and so on and so on...

And yes there are plenty of meteorological events that could affect the velocity of cloud movement such as rising warm and cold fronts. I would go into how all of that happens but I know how you feel about gravity so I'll refrain. At least we can both accept that hurricanes, tornadoes, and noreasters are real.


Speaking of meteorology, are there any models that use a flat earth? I'm sure someone could make millions since the spherical model is only right 75% of the time

nah, not really, I'm actually learning stuff thanks to @Dafunkdoc_Unlimited

Yet here you are, in a thread made for and dedicated to me, seeking my attention

I personally would love to know why and how clouds move from west to East in the first place on a flat earth.

Why do clouds move east to west at the equator? What causes trade winds on a flat earth?

You definitely dont know what sarcasm is, thats for sure

But dont worry, im never taking that piece of shyt off ignore and it has nothing to do with anything being talked around in here

I know what sarcasm is and how it is used, however you said:

Ill post that map when you post a real photo of earth with stars and satellites in it

The irony here is that you have alluded to the fact there is a FE map and sarcasm is the most vicious form of irony

But why won't you take @Dafunkdoc_Unlimited off ignore, if you are going to attempt to kick knowledge why create an echo chamber?

 

[HDiron]

I love space threads

 

[KodeBlue]

Ive literally explained this multiple times in multiple threads it goes out of range of your eyesight as well as heat rising from the ground reducing your range of eyesight

You couldnt see 1000 miles ahead of you no matter how clear the day is because of something called "perspective" which again, ive explained multiple times in multiple threads

Why do you ask questions if you have no intention of retaining the answers?

That makes no sense.

The sun is out of our range of sight, yet we still receive light from it after it sets. If you are able to receive light from the source of light, then the source of light itself is never too far to be seen.

Unless, There is something blocking you from seeing the source... like... the curvature of the Earth.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

Huh?

Youre the one that made that statement

Why would i tell you about something that you just imagined up and posted??

Why would people use holograms centuries ago?? For what purpose??

Someone said the moon was a hologram.

Thats mean they had they technology to project images from the earth, 1000's of years ago.

I guess you missed the sarcasm..

The burden of proof doesn't fall on you. Flat Earthers have to prove their side, yet their whole argument is "I don't believe you."

To answer his question regarding the speed of a West-moving cloud, all we need is the height of the cloud and we can actually calculate it's speed relative to the Earth's velocity with the following formula: 2pi (r)/24. The formula is based on the circumference of the Earth (about 23,000 mi.)which is (at the surface), 1,038 mph. 6 mi. higher, it is 1,048 mph. At the edge of space, about 62 mi. above the surface, the speed is 1,063 mph. There's only a 25 mph. difference, but the higher you go, the lower the air pressure/resistance. So, a West-moving cloud is just being left behind by the Earth's rotation, like smoke trails from a chimney, due to simple drag.​

Same here

Damn looks like I missed a blassic thread

Any way I have a question:

If other planets are spherical, why does that require the earth to be a globe as well?

A sphere takes the least amount of energy to maintain it's shape and gravity exists.​
