The flat earth Q&A tells me that the earth's magnetic field is like a speaker magnet with North Pole in the center, and South Pole all around the rim, this theory doesn't agree with the observations of magnetic declination.

This shows clearly that the ring magnet theory can't be correct. Maps show clearly that the earth has two poles. This is not possible on a flat earth.
Explanations welcome.

No, No, No, you can't just jump in to the pool head first like that. They will attack.
Start off small, work your way into something more meaty, otherwise they will do their best to aggravate you into leaving.
Interesting stuff though.
They will however distort it or claim it is a government paid for map so it must be part of the conspiracy

Didn't jump, I was pushed.. :) now I'm trying to get out without drowning in stupid conspiracies...

Its ok, relax, it's late and jroa doesn't seem to be interested. You may be safe. I'll throw you a lifeline if possible.
So with what he said, I personally believe that this shows a hole in the flat Earth idea's explanation of the magnetic field. Anyone care to elaborate?
The magnetic North and South poles are not at the axis of rotation which is why we have to use magnetic declination if you use paper maps and a good ole compass to navigate by.
With the disc flat Earth map where is the North and South magnetic poles?
With the infinity flat Earth map where would these be also?
There I'll act like bait till you get safely to shore, they like to bite at me anyway.
-
The map does not show the northern magnetic pole, only the southern one. And, the only part of that magnetic field map that would not work on a flat Earth (with the conventional layout and basic shape of the flat Earth) is the location of this southern magnetic pole. As you and I and virtually everyone else on this Earth will never go to the southern magnetic pole, much less go there with any kind of scientific equipment to verify its location, then we are only left either taking NASA's word that this is where it is located or we can question the intention of those who try to make us believe this. Could there be an ulterior motive for them to tell you that this is where the southern magnetic pole is located? Perhaps it is to perpetuate the Round Earth Myth? Think about that for a moment.
-
If you were to go there yourself and find the magnetic South Pole is in fact a single location, would that be sufficient to disprove the flat earth theory?
-
If you were to go there yourself and find the magnetic South Pole is in fact a single location, would that be sufficient to disprove the flat earth theory?
No, it would only mean that a small portion of the flat Earth theory needs to be reevaluated.

Fair enough, I could ask how the flat Earth theory would need to be modified, but instead I'd rather know what would you regard as definitive proof one way or another. To my mind a picture of the edge would be the clincher proving a flat earth, what would you regard as definitive proof of a round earth?
Oh, if you had have answered yes, I would have suggested you book a ticket on this flight. http://www.antarcticaflights.com.au/What-To-Expect (http://www.antarcticaflights.com.au/What-To-Expect)

dual earth theory allows for the existence of two poles.
could you please explain your diagram? what is it the contours and colors represent? presentinga technical image with no explanation is not going to help you getting answers.

He was not asking for answers, he was saying what is presented is impossible on a FE.

The diagram shows that the South Magnetic Pole is a point, it shows that point is located somewhere around lattitude 65 degrees south, since the flat earth theory has the north pole in the center, and the south pole as the edge this diagram disproves that model.
Since the South Magnetic Pole is a single point, that means there is no edge, ergo flat earth theory is dead.
Of course, the diehards will say the data is faked, which is why I point out that anyone, ANYONE, can book a flight on the new years eve Qantas Antarctic flight, that does in fact fly over the south magnetic pole. So you can take your own compass and verify it for yourself.
Dual earth theory is a desperate and confused attempt to hang onto the impossible. Sorry.
-
The southern magnetic pole is not at the edge in FET. It is located directly below the north magnetic pole.
Also, if someone did book this flight over the southern magnetic pole and brought a compass with them, what would you expect the compass to do and how would this show that you are actually at the southern magnetic pole?
-

It answers your question. Ergo, flat earth theory is still easily true. Sorry.
you answered none of my questions. try again, this time actually reading the post you're responding to.

Your compass needle would be sucked down and then point towards the pole again. Put a magnet on a table, and slowly move a compass over it.

I'll try, in baby steps. I'm surprised you didn't read my answer already
1. The earth is a magnet.
2. Magnets have two poles, a North Pole and a South Pole.
3. Flat earth Wiki tells me that in Flat Earth theory the earth's magnetic field is like a disc magnet with North Pole in the center, and South Pole all around the edge.
4. The map posted shows lines of magnetic declination, which clearly shows the South Pole as a single point, and shows the location as about 65 S.
5. This means the Flat Earth model is wrong, The concave earth model likewise is wrong**. The spherical model still works perfectly.
6. FIrst response to the question, was, that the data must be faked.
7. The Qantas antarctic flights go over the South Magnetic Pole, so you can easily verify for yourself. The compass will flip 180 as you fly over the pole.
8. So that leaves the Dual Earth model, which relies on magic aether and teleportation at the equator, how does this model explain the earths magnetic field, compass needles still point north even when in the southern hemisphere.
You can's just make the assertion that dual earth explains everything without offering any clarification, or what evidence exists for any part of the aetheric magic teleportation theory.
How about starting with your dual earth diagram of the earth's magnetic field.
** I didn't elaborate why the concave model is wrong, compass needles point towards the poles, ( we all know that ) what is less well known is that the magnetic lines of force are at an angle to the earth depending on your lattitude, a compass needle at the pole will align vertically straight up and down. This agrees with the magnetic field coming from inside the earth.

the wiki is out of date, and dual earth theory is simply a refinement of flat earth theory.
the evidence for aetheric transmission is that we can cross the equator. in the dual earth model, aether is space: it clearly exists, the only query you could make is whether space possesses specific properties, but all of those i give are logical deductions. you can disagree if you want, that's your choice, but it is possible. the transmission at the equator is simply to do with thinner space. my favorite analogy is of a spring. the length along the metal is constant, but you can stretch it or compress it so it seems to occupy different distances. as for why space is thinner there, that's to do with the creation of the earth, but that's a long story. i have a 'my flat earth model' thread in the repository which, starting at the bottom of page two, begins to explain things in detail. there is a lot to the theory.
on magnetic fields, specifically, they do come from the center of the earth. the sun exists in the center of the earth (long story, again, i refer you to the model thread), and as superheated metal, rotating, set between the poles, it provides the magnetic field of the earth.
-

Huh? are you seriously putting that forward as evidence?
When I stand on the equator and look north, I see polaris on the horizon, and stars rotating anticlockwise, and then without moving I look south and I see the south celestial pole on the horizon and stars rotating clockwise, did I just magically flip from one side to the other without moving? Now again without moving I look up and observe stars travelling east to west overhead..
Conclusion... the earth is a sphere.
My apologies, the topic here was magnetic fields, I'm drifting off on other topics, but the objection to instantaneous flipping still stands.

do you really think you're the first person to propose that? it's a feeble objection, and does not even begin to work. why wouldn't light be transmitted as people are? we are talking about space. light goes through space, did you forget that?
please don't act as though the most obvious objections are instat disproofs. they've been said and disregarded before.
it is valid evidence, because scientific theories are founded on two principles: 1. explaining observations. 2. relies on fewest assumptions.
dual earth theory achieves 1, and in this way the fact we can cross the equator is indeed evidence. i would happily argue it achieves 2, but that is a lengthy topic. the only complex elements are conclusions, but conclusions are not assumptions, so that renders it more reliable.
why does that objection stand? both poles exist on the dual earth model.
-
Ok, let's kill off this dual earth model. The magnetic field is not observed to do a flip at the equator.
The magnetic field of earth is at an angle to the surface, depending on lattitude, if you have two flat surfaces with the sun generating the magnetic field between them ( your diagram ) then the magnetic field lines will be at right angles to the surface on top and bottom earth. Since we observe that the field lines are at angles varying smoothly with lattitude, and generally somewhat horizontal, this pattern is only consistent with one model, and I'll leave you to guess which one that is.
Of course I'm expecting that you will just keep modifying your dual earth theory. Looking forward to the next incarnation.

why would the dual earth model require a flip at the equator? the northward magnetic pull acts through space, it still crosses the equator. similarly for the south pole.
i don't need to modify the theory, the increased distance from the pole explains observations.

Your explanation said the magnetic field is generated by the sun acting as a magnet located between the two earths... This was how you got the North and South Pole that the flat earth model lacked.. So the magnetic field lines in the dual earth model would be vertical through the two planes and so North would be straight up and South would be straight down, Standing on the North side of the equator the compass would point upwards, as you cross to the south side the needle would flip and point directly down.
Maybe you could do a diagram showing how the magnetic field lines are in the dual earth model.

how many poles do magnets have again?
i fail to see what it is you're trying to achieve. the north pole is the north pole, the south pole is the south. why would the compass needle flip at the equator?

I'm starting to think you don't know what a magnetic field looks like. Here I've superimposed the earth's magnetic field on the dual earth model.

The first thing to note is that on the spherical earth model the angle of the magnetic field lines to the surface varies with lattitude, this is in fact what we observe in practice, you can do it yourself, get a compass and you will see that the needle doesn't sit flat, it is at an angle which varies with lattitude. At the equator the needle will be horizontal, and at the poles the needle will be vertical.
In the dual earth model, the needle will always be vertical since the field lines are at right angles to the surface. When you cross the equator, on the North side the needle will be pointing directly up, as you cross to the south side the needle will flip over and point directly down. A 180 degree flip that is not observed to happen in practice.
The flat earth single pole model doesn't work, the dual flat earth dual pole model doesn't work either, the concave earth model fails also. The only one which correctly matches the observations is the spherical model.
-
The observed compass tilt caused by the earth's magnetic field eliminates the concave earth model. For the following reason, the tilt is observed to tilt down in the northern hemisphere, and tilt upwards in the souther hemisphere, in a concave earth model the compass needle tilt would be the other way around. Thus the earth is not concave, it is convex.

the first thing i would say is that if you correct your map so it is the same shape as the dual earth model (and so the shape of the world in reality), those magnetic lines would seem to match the lines of the aetheric whirlpools. that's an interesting observation, if not an argument.
my only question would be how exactly you determine that those lines represent the earth's magnetic field. typically, they are calculated by theory: that doesn't make them true in practise.

Magnetic field lines have been both observed directly by actually measuring them; this is pretty simple, and also historically by looking at the geology of earths crust.

The field line direction in the Earths crust is measured. From those measurements it is very easy to extrapolate a bar magnet diagram, as we have a very good understanding of how magnetic fields behave.

You don't have to believe my diagram, just go out and buy yourself a compass, probably will cost you less that $1, now place it on a flat surface ( away from any other magnets or magnetic material ) and observe the needle from the side, you will notice that the needle doesn't sit flat, it is tilted. The amount of tilt and the direction of the tilt depends where you are on earth since the compass lines up with the magnetic field lines, which not only run north and south but intersect the earth at an angle, and in the southern hemisphere the compass needle tilts one way and northern hemisphere it tilts the other way. The closer you get to the poles the more pronounced the tilt will be.
In the dual earth model the field lines are going to be at right angles to the surface, so this is an easy test to prove the dual earth model does not reflect reality, in fact I'll go one step further, and point out that compasses would not work at all on your dual earth model, since they will be mostly point straight up and down, rather than mostly north south.
So over to you for a diagram of the dual earth magnetic field that explains what anyone can observe with a $1 compass. Do I need to point out that the spherical earth model matches observations perfectly.
Here's one on ebay for $1 free postage http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mini-Pocket-Button-Design-Compass-Derection-for-Hiking-Camping-Outdoor-Sport-/121630013890?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item1c51b6b9c2 (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mini-Pocket-Button-Design-Compass-Derection-for-Hiking-Camping-Outdoor-Sport-/121630013890?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item1c51b6b9c2)
Will someone explain how they can make and sell that with free postage for less than the cost of a stamp... WTF.
-
the compass would point towards the poles on the dual earth model, because that is where the magetic field exists.
you raise a good point with tilting, however: i will say that. the problem is that is still explained simply by angle. the source of the magnetic field comes from directly below the pole: when you are not directly above the pole, the compass needle will have to tilt to be drawn towards it.
-
the compass would point towards the poles on the dual earth model, because that is where the magetic field exists.
Umm no, that's incorrect, the compass needle lines up with the magnetic field lines, it just happens the field lines on earth run mostly north/south, in a dual earth model the field lines are vertical not horizontal.
Ergo, the dual earth fails to explain what we observe with a $1 compass.
The flat earth disk magnet model with south pole all around the outside edge is a nice try, except that fails when we notice the south magnetic pole is a single location, so the disk magnet theory collapses, thus the flat earth model collapses, since a flat earth can't have two poles.
Maybe you can clarify the dual earth model by showing what you think is the magnetic field diagram
Just a follow up on magnetic inclination, I found out that some good quality compasses come pre-balanced to cancel the inclination, some companies sell them in different version depending on the region where you live. There are also some compass manufactures that have come up with global balancing schemes to cancel inclination http://www.recta.ch/en/declination-and-inclination (http://www.recta.ch/en/declination-and-inclination)
-
as requested, i have made a diagram of the north pole. you can easily deduce how the south will act. i would also ask that you take into account the dual earth map: proportions will not be exactly the same as your round earth.
(http://i.imgur.com/FD8cPGW.jpg)
-
The south will be a mirror image of the north. But that's going to be a problem for the dual earth model, it will still mean the force lines are vertical on the earth surface, I'm not sure it can be fixed to match reality without making it into a globe. ( That would be my answer, wrap the top and bottom of the dual earth around a sphere :) ) But I can understand your reluctance to go with that solution.
What about having a disk of magnetic material between the two halves of the dual earth, that distorts the magnetic field to behave in exactly the way we see in reality?
Of course that might be seen by some as cheating... wouldn't it, then we would have to come up with detailed explanations of what the magnetic material was, why it focussed the field in a particular way etc..
What other choices are there?
-
Well, congratulations. You may have just given birth to aetheric magnets. Aether will now gain this property since it can do everything else and because we can claim it alone can do all these different things supposedly makes it simpler.
Yep heated and compressed aether in between the two discs has a magnetic field. Why it must have, we observe the magnetic field, I suspect it will aid in the light bending and transportation also. It will also probably help in explaining the force of gravity. Such a magical substance... oops not a substance unless it gets dense enough.. wait how does a massless substance, no wait massless space, become more dense? No matter, we observe the effects we claim it has so it must be true.
face meet palm.

But that's going to be a problem for the dual earth model, it will still mean the force lines are vertical on the earth surface, I'm not sure it can be fixed to match reality without making it into a globe. ( That would be my answer, wrap the top and bottom of the dual earth around a sphere :) ) But I can understand your reluctance to go with that solution.
What about having a disk of magnetic material between the two halves of the dual earth, that distorts the magnetic field to behave in exactly the way we see in reality?
Of course that might be seen by some as cheating... wouldn't it, then we would have to come up with detailed explanations of what the magnetic material was, why it focussed the field in a particular way etc..
What other choices are there?
the force lines are vertical at the pole. they are not elsewhere, why would they be? they come to earth at an angle. given that when we use compasses it tends not to be at the pole...
i do not overcomplicate my theory. dual earth theory is inherently a simpler model, with less assumptions, than the others.

Apart from the masses of assumptions you've had to make about the properties of aether with absolutely no evidence to support those assumptions whatsoever.

as requested, i have made a diagram of the north pole. you can easily deduce how the south will act. i would also ask that you take into account the dual earth map: proportions will not be exactly the same as your round earth.

No, that's not going to work, the field lines are symmetrical, about the central axis, so you need to draw the field lines below the dual earth as a mirror image of those above the dual earth.
We know the earth has two poles, like a giant bar magnet, so you need to start with the field of a bar magnet, and try to come up with an arrangement that somehow distorts the bar magnet field into the intersection angles of a spherical surface.

Could you increase the separation between the top and bottom disks?

if you have zero knowledge about my theory, as your bs just there has made clear, refrain from commenting on it. amazing how you think assertion is somehow a valid argument, especially assertion about something you know absolutely nothing about.

rotate your diagram ninety degrees. the north pole is at the top, the south is at the bottom. it looks very similar.
the only distortions would come from the aetheric whirlpools (as clearly alterations in space will alter seeming distance and so angle).

I tried that and with shrinking and stretching I still can't get away from the field lines running vertically through the dual earth model, one thing that would help is to move the two halves of the dual earth a long way further apart. But it's your model, so you should see if you can make the field lines intersect properly, maybe multiple magnets are needed?
All I really wanted to point out is the inconsistency of all the models with the exception of the spherical earth model with the observed magnetic fields.

Then he should make the two sides of duel Earth into hemispheres andconnect them together so he doesn't need that aether portal nonsense.

don't talk about a theory you clearly understand nothing about. there are no portals, and no nonsense. everything is well explained and logical.
the round earth model has been shredded multiple times on this forum. i'm amazed you still cling to it.

the line swill be vertical to the pole no matter what shape the world is. the fact is, you can't directly measure behavior at the pole when you're not at the pole. you measure only the magnetic field that reaches you: which does point you to the pole, but it does more than just that.

So are you saying that there is an edge to the Earth on the equator that nobody notices? Also, I have never seen a decent argument from you against a round Earth and my forum signature links to sources proving the Earth is round.

Best answer is if you could draw a diagram, showing how compass needles point to north ( and not up and down ) on a dual earth. I tried and can't do it.

you clearly know nothing about dual earth theory. please, at least try to read the basics. the very, very basics. space is thin at the equator, meaning there seems to be no distance crossed at the equator (so light also is transferred: it moves through space). please, seriously, try to educate yourself before you asks uch stupid questions. do you really think you're the first person to have asked that?!
and look at that, you're back to your pathetic argument from exhaustion and mastubatory self-reference and acting like dual earth theory has the same weaknesses as classical flat earth theory. educate yourself. seriously.

how to compass needles know where to point?
answer that. to my knowledge they follow the magnetic field, in which case dual earth theory matches observations.

Jrowe, fuel Earth still has many of the weaknesses of FET including the lack of an explenation for sunsets and time zones. Also, you clearly don't know how magnetic field lines work because it would mean that on a duel Earth compases would point up or down.

more lies. seriously, educate yourself on a theory. i've even specifically addressed sunsets lately. this is getting tedious.

Mikeman has got it right. You need to modify your dual earth theory to explain magnetic fields we can easily observe. Or just admit the earth is round.

And also, just by saying a is right just because i think so, and b is right because of a deduction of an a which is obviously right (because i said so), is wrong.

What do you mean "more lies"? Are you suggesting that magnetism doesn't work like we think despite many experiments I can do in my own house that can prove you wrong? Iron filings clump together along magnetic field lines when you place a magnet next to them and this is what it looks like:
(http://bolvan.ph.utexas.edu/~vadim/Classes/2014f/magnets/2magnets.jpg)
Magnets tend to align to be parallel to the magnetic field lines. This means that on an Earth the shape you propose compasses would point up or down while on a round Earth they point north. No lies involved, that's just how magnets work.

you were lying abotu dual earth theory. are you capable of reading posts? look at what i quoted. read it. radical thought: maybe i am responding to the post which i quoted.
seriously.
if you want to talk about magnets, remember that the magnetic pole is inside the earth. look at the magnetic field above the magnet.

So if the red part is at the North and the blue bit is at the South then the field lines would coming straight up out of the ground which is precisely what we don't see.

Sketch it then (with full field lines, not just half). Currently there is no way the observed field lines match up with how you are explaining the field lines for a dual-earth.
