T8: Remember when I said that I wouldn’t post that often due to being busy… So be patient.
I’ve been patient. There are simple YES or NO answers I’ve been waiting for since page 2 or 3 of the thread. On the other hand, you don’t owe me anything here. You could be like the majority of HN members and just pretend like this thread (and issue)…[Read more]

Hi T8,
Here’s my first question:
Can the size and/or shape of the earth be determined by observing two shadows? YES or NO?

T8: Pity some Christians insist that the Bible teaches the Flat Earth. It is a stumbling block now and will affect the preaching of the good news because of its perception of being fake news. That is the end game and the preachers of the Flat Earth are the pawns.
You are so deeply indoctrinated that you don’t even realize that what you just sa…[Read more]

T8: …we have ample evidence the earth is globe shaped in the form of videos, photos, math calculations and predictions etc…
Can you confirm the authenticity of the photos and videos? Math calculations you definitely have… in spades. But remember what Nikola Tesla, likely the most brilliant scientist in history, said about th…[Read more]

Kathi, this is the picture I took that day with my crappy phone camera…

This is the same thing taken from a better camera. It was sent in to a Phoenix News site…

And this one was taken by my sister, Beth – from only 14 miles pretty much due east of my location!


Now how in the world can I see the moon eclipse from the top down…[Read more]

Okay Kathi, I see that you are stumped. I’ll make one more attempt, using Google World and the timeanddate.com diagram. First up is Google World, with Phoenix centered in the middle and the sun and moon added in…

I hope you are able to see why I put myself on top of the ball for my diagrams, because putting me on the side like this d…[Read more]

Gene: Mike…The question was if you were given a ride on the ISS, and saw that the world was truly round, would you believe it? Would that proof cause you to become a atheist?
Gene, I have no problem answering your question directly, succinctly, and honestly. But there are 25 questions from me in this thread that you just ignored. So I’ll make…[Read more]

Hi T8,
This is a little snippet of a video I made just for you. It attempts to answer your question about why the bottom of distant objects disappear in photos in which we shouldn’t be able to see any of the object…

Now imagine I shot those bushes over a vast body of water. Can you see how the silver mirage that is hiding the bottom of t…[Read more]

Kathi: Mike,
If you are the X man in your diagram, then you are in Greenland or maybe Russia…
Yeah, I said early on in the discussion that I was moving Phoenix to the top of the ball, to make the diagrams more understandable. If I leave it on the side, I can’t show any relational difference between the sun, earth and moon. It will just be…[Read more]

Kathi: Mike,
I think this site will greatly help you understand why there are the three types of shadows, penumbra, umbra, and ante-umbra…
Can you show me real tests with a real light source and real objects and real shadows? Because I have no use for diagrams of hypotheticals – like the one you posted last week where the cylinder had a sk…[Read more]

Kathi: I don’t remember the diagram but I have seen diagrams of the orbit around the sun that were drawn wrong. The last post has the distance between summer and winter appearing the same from the sun. The spring and the fall are closer to the sun. Study the last diagram and see if that doesn’t help you.
I didn’t post a diagram, and you weren…[Read more]

Kathi: Look at this picture, it should help you see the mean temperature chart more clearly.
That won’t be necessary, as the other image you posted works just fine…

In this image, we get to see the equator AND the orbital path the earth takes around the sun. My question was how that orbital path (which is perfectly horizontal in this di…[Read more]

Kathi: The moon is not above you, it is in front of you and behind the earth, the sun is about to come up behind you and it is in front of the earth. The moon is on its orbit from 5 degrees below the ecliptic plane to 5 degrees above the ecliptic plane. That would show a moon eclipsing from the top down. It would look the opposite on the S…

T8: If the earth is flat, why can’t we see forever?
Because we can only see as far as the moisture/dust/pollution in the air allows us to see. I made a time lapse this morning of the daytime moon fading into the sky before it “set behind the curve of the earth”. The video is a little jerky, as I am still learning how to work the equipment, bu…[Read more]

BTW, your Antarctica video basically says we’ve been sending scientists there for a century to study… ICE. A hundred years to study ice? Really? Think it out, man. And in the off chance you have a moment of open-mindedness, take that opportunity to listen to the NASA scientist who was sent there via Christchurch for the sole purpose of i…[Read more]

Thanks for that, T8. We need to get the word out to as many as we can in any way we can. 😉
I got a comment from a cat calling himself Blake Bond. His claim was that Ruapehu is just up the road so it’s no big deal. He pointed out that we are unable to see Australia from New Zealand, but we can see the moon. Interesting timing, as I am right this…[Read more]

Yes, let’s start with my own video of the 1-31-18 eclipse…
As you can see, the moon is above me. It is setting in the west. The sun is about to rise behind me in the east. I want to know…[Read more]

Hey Kathi, I also wanted to ask you about this claim from that NASA video I posted on the previous page…

At this point in the video, the narrator says… “As the moon passes into the central part of the earth’s shadow, called the umbra, it darkens dramatically. Once it’s entirely within the umbra, the moon appears a dim red due to sunlight…[Read more]

Gene: …my faith in GOD IS NOT BASED ON ANYTHING carnely CONNECTED WITH THE EARTH BEING Flat or not. But it appears you and Mike would completely fall apart and become atheists. Which makes me think how much actual Faith in God you people really have.
