I've looked through a telescope and seen Saturn and its rings and Jupiter. In the FE model where there are no planets what am I seeing?
I have not seen any model with the planets not existing just being smaller or dead stars and a lot closer than we are told they are.
The wiki states they orbit the sun.
"In FET the planets are revolving around the sun, while the sun itself revolves around the Northern Hub."
I do not know the answer to why observations do not match the hypothesis in the wiki.
Mind you there are numerous questions that the Flat Earth "model" does not answer. For example:
Mercury and Venus both have phases like our moon and the apparent size of Venus varies from 9.67″ to 63.00″ of arc at its largest size shows like a "New Moon" and at this time
is on the same side of earth as the sun, so can be hidden in the glare.
Phases of Venus
The phases of the planet Venus are the different variations of lighting seen on the planet's surface, similar to lunar phases. The first recorded observations of them were telescopic observations by Galileo Galilei in 1610. Although the extreme crescent phase of Venus has been observed with the naked eyes, there are no indisputable historical pre-telescopic records of it being observed
On the other hand Mars has no phases, its apparent size varies from 3.49″ to 25.13″ of arc and
unlike Venus, at its largest size Mars is on the other side of the earth to the sun.Venus and Mercury transit the sun, but none of the other planets do.
If all the planets simply orbit the sun why these differences?
Funny that these observations present no problems at for the Heliocentric Globe model.
