Length of the Ice Wall
« on: June 30, 2008, 11:17:31 AM »
What is estimate of the length of the Ice Wall? I couldn't find that information anywhere, and I'm convinced that if Ice Wall could be measured, then we would be sure if Earth is flat or round. I've made some calculations of my own, and I've came to conclusion: If the Ice Wall is long around 50 000 km, then we are surely living on FE, but if it's closer to a 15 000 - 20 000 km, then it has no chance to be a wall, it is definitely a continent. It is not such a small difference, so even the rough estimate would give pretty straightforward answer.

How did I calculate this numbers? Pretty simple. 15 000 to 20 000 km is estimate of Antarctica's circumference as given by RE theory. Numbers depend on the path you take around it and how far do you go from the "wall". Exact number is not that important as even the rough estimate is good enough. Now if I take length from the North pole to the far south of Africa, South America or anything else furthest away from the north pole, it gives me the number of 13 000 - 17 000 km. It is the land that IS there, measured and anyone can measure it. It can't disappear, we all know sizes of our countries, traveled everywhere by car and it would be noticeable if land is on the map and it is missing for real. (At least I can confirm for my country (Croatia) that every distance I travel by car corresponds to the distance on the map. I believe everyone can make the same conclusion). Now to calculate circumference of the flat earth, we need to multiply that number by PI (which equals 3.14159....). It gives circumference of at least 40 000 to 55 000 km (but in reality probably much larger number because water in between continents and wall is not taken into account).

EDIT: Now i have found it in the FAQ:
Q: "What is the circumference and diameter of the Earth?"
A: "Circumference: 78225 miles, Diameter: 24,900 miles

Although I have read it, I searched for "length" and "long" through post and couldn't find it at first... Later word circumference gave right answer...

EDIT 2:
2*PI*r... I'm confused these days...
