I think you are so. But you just need time to research and get some mechanisms. You are quite new and the flat earth theory really has too much disciplines. When you look at a straight road, I mean, if an engineer produced him exactly straight, but you would never see him as flat. the reason for this is the angular problem. I've been researching all the subjects about the flat world for maybe more than 10 years and even I've noticed this problem in recent months. I mean, we're all learning new things all the time and we've never been able to know exactly. you can be an expert on any subject you choose. it depends entirely on your interest and research.
Best regards. wise.
Thank you for your kind words.
But I just don't know if I can comprehend the situation without an overall diagram.
I mean it's not like I haven't put in the effort. I did the Cavendish experiment: It showed some odd weak attraction between my lead weights. I built a Michelson–Morley laser interferometer with very textbook results: Lovely light/dark bands pattern. I even built a laser ring interferometer with a beam splitter and got a surprisingly good results with the beam nearly canceling itself.
I've been playing with lenses, mirrors, cameras, telescopes, and prisms for years, and I understand reflection, refraction, Chromatic aberration and Spherical aberration, optical coherence, standing waves, interference, and polarization.
It's all just a hobby for me, but I do really enjoy it.
Right now I have built a pendulum gravity sensor that swings a tungsten weight in a vacuum and measures the swing time. An electronic circuit keeps it gently moving at it's natural frequency, and it records the time of every swing. The idea is to measure the number of microseconds it takes to do a million swings (About a week) then put 23 pounds of lead weights directly under it and do the test again, and see if gravity changes.
I tell you all this to help you understand how I do try to understand things.
I really would love to understand how the sun can appear on the horizon, and then a few minutes later be just gone from sight.
If you get a chance, I would be very grateful if you might perchance draw up a diagram that depicts the sun, the dome, the air, the earth, the observer, and the rays of light, and day and night - the overall picture.
Maybe seeing it all together would help me understand. I think I can understand the component aspects of it, I just can't wrap my mind around the whole picture.
Thanks!
