How far is the moon from the Earth in the FE model and why?

(I couldn't find this question elsewhere)

So, in most of the FE models, how far away is the moon from the Earth and is it's radius from the Earth normal to it?

3000 miles

3000 miles

And is it's radius normal to Earth (at a 90 degree angle)?  That is, is the moon's "orbit" always parallel to the Earth? (a circular orbit parallel to the flat Earth)






Anyone else have a number?

yes

it's 3000 miles. Seriously.

3000 miles. and so is the sun, so eclipses are impossible!

Do you remember anything you read here?  Or is every visit a new adventure?

Hence the shadow object

The shadow object which isn't explained by Eclipses in a FE theory. As you say both the sun and moon are 3000 miles. Unless these torches as i've seen the refered to are at slightly different altitudes there must be another explanation for eclipses. ash bash makes a good point, any thoughts on the idea on how it is explained?

No, lmao... I think you're misunderstanding the meaning of "shadow object" here.  How long have you been here again? 

If the sun and the moon are roughly the same size and the same distance away then how would the FE model explain the vast difference between the effects of gravitation

No, lmao... I think you're misunderstanding the meaning of "shadow object" here.  How long have you been here again? 

I know a little about the shadow object, isn't it a magical device that covers the sun when there is an eclipse. Its a completely unacceptable explanation, it's total fantasy made up to explain a failed theory.

The shadow object is where the moon shines a "shadow" in opposite of the suns light. In nature there are always opposites, North and South, East and West.....Round or Flat! There is currently no better explination for the use of the word  "shadow"

I belive this is what the shadow looks like when observed though a hydrogen lens microscope.

You ready?



The image is so small because the telescope was so powefull.

Do not doubt the power of the microscope!!
