The earth is a ball or sphere or anything but flat or possibly concave.

Blazing kush as always, but I thought for sure you would understand the fly analogy, instead of ceiling light, say a disc shaped light fixture, and the fly lands on the underside of. While it isn't literally the top of the fixture, if you and I were on our backs both facing the fixture, your top (the side closest to you) would be my bottom, and vice versa. I can assure you, curved glasses do affect images viewed, your pupil is directly in the center, so you would only see flat lines when they are centered, if your corrective lenses are not very curved, your eye site is relatively good, or you have just gotten used to the effects and your brain is translating the information back to normal. Most people are affected by this curvature.http://ask.metafilter.com... makes the math easier because it really is flat, they are supposedly the smartest of the smart, why would they cut corners on the math?It sounds like you've never heard about or researched the flat earth geocentric model, I encourage you to check out at least one of a growing number of documentaries on the subject, it will help answer a lot of these basic questions about it. I recommend Eric dubay, jeranism, these are the most prominent ones to me, though most people free on most of the basic stuff, beware of shills as some of them will make you think silly things, and you will get discouraged if you are disproved. But to answer your questions 1. The flat earth is disc shaped, with the north pole at the middle. Going from here will take you south as it would on a globe. Antarctica is completely different though, it actually encircles the rest of the world and holds all the water in with its 1-200ft walls. http://www.atlanteanconspiracy.com...EclipsesHere's where it gets a little confusing. I'll start with what we are taught in school. The moon is about 400 times smaller than the sun, but the sun is about 400 times further away than the moon! This is why they appear to be exactly the same size, so when they cross over each other, the moon blocks the sun perfectly, every eclipse. What are the odds of both of these events happening in this "vast , chaotic universe"? Bout a Brazilian to one. And it's happened to the place we call home, the Only place we know for sure that life exists. Let that sink in. Now every time we see these illustrations or demonstrations of eclipses being explained, the objects being used are almost always out of scale, with the little flashlights and crap. Saw a guy demonstrate one on a talk show, with a flashlight, an orange and a golf ball or something, and he had to do it just right to make it look right. There have been numerous reports that during several lunar eclipses, both the sun and moon are visible above the horizon, this would be impossible if the earth were exactly without a degree of error between the moon and sun. As they can both appear in the sky, it can logically deduced that the earth does not block the light of the sun on the moon. https://youtu.be... Many people think that modern astronomy"s ability to accurately predict lunar and solar eclipses is a result and proof positive of the heliocentric theory of the universe. The fact of the matter however is that eclipses have been accurately predicted by cultures worldwide for thousands of years before the "heliocentric ball-Earth" was even a glimmer in Copernicus" imagination. Ptolemy in the 1st century A.D. accurately predicted eclipses for six hundred years on the basis of a flat, stationary Earth with equal precision as anyone living today. All the way back in 600 B.C. Thales accurately predicted an eclipse which ended the war between the Medes and Lydians. Eclipses happen regularly with precision in 18 year cycles, so regardless of geocentric or heliocentric, flat or globe Earth cosmologies, eclipses can be accurately calculated independent of such factors. As far as night and day, the Chinese described it With the yin yang symbol, the light from the sun does not illuminate the whole disc of the earth, it goes out of range when it illuminated the other side. With atmosphere, it should be asked the other way around. Space is supposedly a vacuum, astronots needed aluminum, glass, some baler wire, aluminum and gold foil and a bit of duct tape to get to the moon, lol< because this vast vacuum would suck all the air out because vacuum seeks equilibrium, but our atmosphere rests on this vacuum for some millions of years resistant of the moon's gravitational pull, the sun, often both simultaneously and the claimed tilted back spinning at 1,000 miles per hour revolving around the sun at 19mps, while the solar system flies around the galaxy even faster, which rockets around the universe At 670,000,000 mph ( and we still have our hair) combined speed of 670,568,000 in every direction at once, that no one has ever felt, seen, heard or measured. But our atmosphere, on some days is pretty motionless. In most flat earth models, as it is explained in the bible, there is a dome, similar to the Truman show. This can be proved with a rainbow. Modern day science tells us that rainbows occur when light travels through moisture in the air, but the effect cannot be reproduced indoors, except with mirrors or crystals, not to say you can't put moisture in the air inside, this can be achieved with an air moisturizer creating a 3 dimensional field for a 2 dimensional rainbow to produce itself on, it takes a second beam of light coming from a slightly different angle, from the same source, as if reflected from the mirror or crystal. A curved mirror will produce a rainbow in such a moisture field. Another proof can be found in the covert operation called operation fishbowl after the first rockets reached this dome in the space race, operation fishbowl was put into effect to try to break through this dome. Science will say this was to dissipate the harmful radioactive field around the earth, so as to exit the party's atmosphere, but this would, as shown with most nukes, create more radiation.https://youtu.be... https://en.m.wikipedia.org...
