please try reading. i've never said every star is faked. some are just not visible when they should be, so nasa compensates.

How did NASA compensate before powered flight was invented?
Also, why don't you ever use the caps key?
NEVER SAID THAT. TRY AGAIN.
Then what did you mean when you said.
please try reading. i've never said every star is faked. some are just not visible when they should be, so nasa compensates.
i meant nasa compensates. that doesn't mean they compensated all throughout history, we have no reason to believe stars were the exact same historically. the technology to map them in detail long-term hasn't been around much longer than planes, and it is well known governments alter history. a couple of chips here, a couple of added words there, lies upon lies.

...  But what about southern constellations which are geometrically impossible on a flat Earth?
i'd sick of repeating myself. try to actually read what i've been saying.
the only such constellations that are truly impossible are the fictional ones which go over the south pole. those simply do not exist, as the south pole is a ring, not an island floating at the bottom of the world.

Well what you are saying is complete bullshit so its hard to remember it between the laughing and bewilderment. You'll probably have to repeat yourself every time someone proves you wrong since your only evidence to the contrary on any of these items is because you "said so".
I have 13 [academic qualifications] actually. I'll leave it up to you to guess which, or simply call me a  liar. Either is fine.

But you can see the stars above the South Pole from anywhere in the Southern Hemisphere just like you can see Polaris from anywhere in the northern hemisphere.  Anyone from the Southern Hemisphere, could you please tell this guy that you can see the southern cross which is right above the south pole?  You should also note what Cardinal direction it is from you.

Crux is not directly over the south pole. The dim constellation Octans is.

The Southern Cross is about 30° from the south celestial pole, about the same distance as the 'W' asterism in "Cass" is from the north celestial pole.

I have never even seen any southern constellations before myself (although I would like to), so excuse my lack of knowledge about them.  Alpha2Omega, tell flat earthers what cardinal direction is Octans always is.

yes. stars can be seen from both sides of the earth. what are you trying to prove? some simply move in their normal motions, some are fakes.

My point is that it's geometrically impossible for the southern constellations to work on a flat Earth, even if there are airplanes involved.  How can constellations like Octans be south of everywhere and only be viable in the south pole?  No matter where you are in the southern hemisphere Octans will be south of you (unless you are on Antarctica, then it will be above you), so how do you think that is possible?  If the flat Earth model were correct then where do you think the stars in Octans would be that would make them always be south of the observer?  On a related note, why can't I see southern constellations from here even though FET predicts that I should have a direct line of sight to them?  And why do stars have the same angular distance when they are near the horizon then they have when they are high in the sky?  How can you still believe FET when it has massive holes like these?

Nah. Scepti thinks it differentiates this alt from his main. He just forgets to change his inflection and idioms and other tells.
