North star (Polaris) on the Flat Earth.

The north star (Polaris) is located above the north pole. Where is it on the FE model and can you see it from all over the flat earth?

This particular topic has been discussed before but it really is the nail in the coffin for the Monopole model. The southern hemisphere has a feature analogous to Polaris known as the Southern Cross. It can be used for navigation in the southern hemisphere just like Polaris can in the north. Kind of presents a problem.

No, you can't see it from all over the Earth.  The air drowns out light, so the farther you get from the pole star, the less it will be visible.

WRONG.

It goes below the horizon, but you knew that didn't you roundy?

I feel that you are getting to the truth.  You will see the light eventually.  We will welcome you when you figure it out.

How far is the pole star and what is the diameter of the earth?

There are 2 ways to the light. I know this jroa.

There are (1) people stupid enough to fall for this FE bullshit and (2) people who enjoy trolling others.

You are a FE troll and you jack off to round objects all day.

You are now in the denial stage.  You will soon be one of us.

Here is a video to explain more on the north star.

Thank you.  I had no idea what the north star was before seeing your link.  Us FE'ers are just dumb and have never gone to school or have ever been exposed to science.  )

Sad but sometimes it is that way. When i was young (12 or so ) i would lay down in my back yard and look to find the big dipper and then the north star. it was fun. Years ago I used it to confirm the north location my GPS indicated so i could install my second tower. When you have a computerized telescope it is used to calibrate the operation.

Correct. I'm sorry but keep asking the big questions and I will try my best to teach you about our wonderful world.

The sarcasm goes whoosh.  You people are denser than week old doughnuts.

Not really. You still don't get it. Tell me why you can't see the north star from the southern hemisphere?

Because it is too far away.  Light can not penetrate an infinite distance through the air.

You know that is not true. Do the stars rotate around the north star on your FE world?

Of course the stars rotate around the Earth.  When they are too far away, you simply do not see them anymore. 

Of course the stars rotate around the Earth.  When they are too far away, you simply do not see them anymore.

Ok we agree on that. Is it the stars that is rotation or the earth?

I can't say for certain, but it seems to me to be the stars rotating. 

Because it is too far away.  Light can not penetrate an infinite distance through the air.

  Are you saying that there is an infinite distance of air between Polaris and pretty much anywhere south of the equator?

I can't say for certain, but it seems to me to be the stars rotating.

I like to think you would know because it makes a big difference. It is hard to imagine a universe with trillions of galaxies and stars spinning. They would have to travel much faster than the speed of light. All we would see is a blur or nothing.

No, do you not understand the difference between infinite and finite?

Only if you assume that they are as far away as you have been told.

Polaris is 420 light years from Earth, that is about 2,526,078,719,600,000 miles. The fact is you can't see it at all from Australia because the earth is a sphere. You saw the video.

Of course I understand the difference.  What I don't understand why you keep saying:

Because it is too far away.  Light can not penetrate an infinite distance through the air.

as if it's relevant.

In FET the stars are much closer.  They are only a little over 3000 miles above the Earth.
