There are numerous models which are fundamentally flawed and incapable of explaining simple, observable phenomena.
nonsense kid. you talk...without showing which model you speak about, what simple observable phenomena, etc..
Again, it applies to all FE models.
A key one I mention quite often (which relates to this thread) is the existence of 2 celestial poles, always 180 degrees apart, which in turn is responsible for numerous phenomena.
This is impossible for a flat Earth. It requires 2 lines to intersect twice after some finite distance.
The only way out is to say that all of Earth is just a small region between the poles, but that destroys time zones and circumnavigation about the poles.
Meanwhile, you come in saying there are numerous models, without providing any.
You do realize you are trolling right? you simply have NO IDEA what you are talking about.
No, that would be you.
ALL evidence SHOWS the earth is FLAT. NOT moving.
There is NOT a single shred of evidence (ANYWHERE other than NASA) showing a globe earth.
Nope, you have that completely backwards.
I am yet to see a single piece of evidence which shows Earth is flat and not moving.
The best you get regarding the shape is an inability to tell the difference between a flat and round Earth.
However the mere existence of the horizon which is not the edge of the disc of a hypothetical FE, clearly shows Earth is not flat. The horizon is an edge.
The fact that it can be anywhere, and moves depending upon where you are clearly shows Earth is round.
The fact that objects are obstructed by the curvature as they go over the horizon is evidence Earth is round.
The numerous navigation routes which exist is evidence Earth is round.
The numerous photos from space is evidence Earth is round.
Also, evidence shows you cannot detect absolute linear motion at all, i.e. you cannot tell if something is moving in a straight line or stationary, instead all you can detect is acceleration, including that or rotational motion.
The evidence (such as the Coriolis as evidenced by tropical storms and weather systems and small scale things like Foucault's pendulum, as well as the Sagnac effect) clearly shows Earth is rotating, as a globe.
after reading your replies, it's obvious your brain does not allow you to accept reality. It simply wants comfort.
And there you go with the projection.
If I wanted comfort and didn't care about reality I would pretend Earth is flat.
It would make everything so much simpler. There would only ever need to be one type of "projection" of Earth. We wouldn't need the multitude of maps which comes as a result of Earth being round and it being impossible to map such a round object onto a flat surface.
It would mean the scale of a map is constant, and isotropic. It means you can easily draw a straight line on the map and know that line will be the most direct route, the shortest distance between the locations.
There would be no need for the spherical math.
It would also mean Earth could hypothetically be infinite, meaning space and resources would not be an issue.
But I'm not like that.
I care about reality.
I care about the truth.
I care about having my beliefs reflect reality.
So I discard that comforting nonsense and instead accept what all the evidence shows.
If you think you have evidence that Earth is flat and stationary, feel free to start a new thread to discuss it.
If you have a model of a FE which allows a first person view which can be used to accurately predict the apparent location of the sun for any time and place on Earth, feel free to provide it here.
