EMILO2STAY: Ok I don't know why there's none at this moment. I've booked one in 2018 non-stop. But Uncle flat Check this SYN-EZE flight with a stop over at Auckland https:///2BozZUl 14-15hrs air flight time. 14-15hrs flight time is still impossible on a Flat Earth. I still win. Kindly explain why it's not 20hrs on the air flight time. It's impossible on flat earth Still 1 for me 0 for you Then me scared to engage a Flat Earthers. I'll kill myself if you best me. Kindly Explain next question pls

Horlufemi:lol Mr ball head earth I did not bother to address the 14hrs flight time because you can't get a non stop flight from south America to australia so how do you know for sure it takes exactly 14hrs flight. saying it is impossible is ignorant of you, aircraft cruising with jet stream speed get to their destination faster. |

EMILO2STAY:Because I've attempted to book one before in 2018 Syd to Auckland 3hrs 15mins, Auckland to EZE is 11hrs 45mins. Auckland is still close to Syd airport as you can see in the diagram. Win for me. You still didn't explain anything all you did was say non stop. Maybe movement on Earth problems are too much for you. Explain the next ones. 3 for me 0 for you More questions... Part B: Astronomical Problems B1. The Seasons. It is summer in the southern hemisphere when winter in the northern hemisphere, and vice versa. The flat Earth sun diagram I've seen does not allow the sun extra time over the "summer" hemisphere. That's why it's warmer in summer -- owing to the tilt of the earth toward or away from the sun, the sun is up longer, and the rays are more direct, in the summer, heating the surface for longer and more directly. This is not accounted for on the flat earth map. Explain how this happens.

Emusan: Do you know how gravity works? Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

Horlufemi: since you cannot say for sure, the saying that it takes 14hrs to fly from Sydney australia to Argentina is just specs on paper. The actual time varies from 16 to 20 hrs in reality . That been said I do not deny the possibility of flying to argentina from australia in 14hrs,.. Why because the answer lies in the air. There are jet streams that flow at different altitude that can speed up an air craft along at a much faster ground speed than its air speed. The jet streams can have wind speed ranging from 60miles/h to more than 250m/h. Example is when a Boeing 777 set a record crossing the Atlantic in from new York to london as it reached a ground speed of 745m/h (the speed of sound travel at 760m/h). Now this new York to london record was north of the equator. It is notable that there is no report of ground speeds records of of commercial jet flying between cities using the jet streams south of the equator. Why, because, the only way that they could report a record ground speed of a commercial air plane across the ocean south of the equator would be to reveal the truly the large expanse of area traversed by the aircraft that actually exist south of the equator. That would expose the truth that the earth is flat. So in other to keep a lid that the earth is flat, the fast ground speed traveled in the jet stream south of the equator mist be concealed. The jets traveling non stop flight across the ocean south of the equator must always be falsely portrayed as flying at a slower cruising speed for that aircraft over distorted short distances than they are really travelling, thus giving the fictitious impression that the earth is a sphere. Jean campanella Analyzed the jet streams and found that the jet streams have different speeds at different altitude, and most notably, they also reverse direction at different altitude. For example, while a jet stream in the southern latitude would be a westerly jet stream at 30, 000ft once a plane climbs to a higher altitude the jet will meet an easterly flowing jet stream. Incidentally once campanella and others began publicizing their findings using the website https://www.earth.nullschool.net. and then basing their explanation for the time compression in the southern flight routes on that analysis, the website without explanation, removed the alternative of allowing the viewing of wind currents on an azimuthal equidistant map aka flat earth map. The removal prevents anyone from seeing how the jet stream flows between locations on the flat earth. Now the distance from Sydney to south africa is roughly the same with Sydney to argentina south america. Qantas direct flight takes roughly 14hrs from Sydney Australia to johannesburg south africa a distance roughly the same with Sydney and argentina on the flat earth map. Now when checking data for previous Qantas flight 63 on flightaware.Com a strange thing happened. The flight data was reported for the period from take of until approximately 1and 1/2hour into the flight, then suddenly there is a ribbon through the data explaining gap in available data. After reviewing several historical Qantas 63 flights, it was found that the gap in data was typically more than 10hrs in length . It can easily be said that it was during the gap the aircraft was catching a jet stream. That jet stream can then push the airplane along at a much faster ground speed than its typical cruising ground speed, thus an airplane can make the trek across large expanse below the equator at a much faster speed giving the impression that the earth is a sphere when it is not. If Qantas flight 63 is catching a jet stream that means the purported direct distance between Sydney to johannesburg as reported by google earth is inaccurate. So if Qantas aircraft can ride on a jet stream at a distance roughly the same as the distance between South africa and australia and arrive in 14hrs, then it is possible to go from Sydney ausy to bueno Ares argentina in 14hrs to 16 hrs. |

EMILO2STAY:two bodies will always tend to pull each other together in space. That’s gravity. This creates a centre of gravity, the heavier object tends to pull the other closer because the Centre of gravity will be probably located inside of it or close to it. This is evident the in the way Jupiter orbits the sun. It doesn’t really orbit the sun but it orbits the center of gravity between her and the sun. It’s all about mass bro. |

EMILO2STAY: Flat earth theory doesn't make sense... It simply collapse on it's own weight when probed... How can u say the edges of the earth is surrounded by glaciers with infinite end and that no one is allowed to fly across them.... And then how come the moon n sun looks spherical but the earth is flat..... They tell me the reason I can't see far is because of our limited vision.... But I can see the objects in the universe that are thousands of miles away from the earth..... Even as a kid, I'd always knew the earth isn't flat..... 1 Like 1 Share |

Emusan: First of all, saying the planets go around the Sun is just another way of saying the planets are in orbit around the Sun. A planet orbiting the Sun is like the moon or a NASA satellite orbiting Earth. Now why does a planet orbit the Sun and not the Sun orbit the planet? The lighter object orbits the heavier one, and the Sun is, by far, the heaviest object in the solar system. The Sun is 1000 times heavier than the largest planet, Jupiter (which also happens to be my favorite planet), and it is more than 300,000 times heavier than Earth (another planet I am very fond of). In the same way, the moon and satellites we launch orbit Earth because they are so much lighter than our planet. Sir Isaac Newton But now we still have the question of why anything orbits something else. The reasons are complicated but the first good explanation was provided by one of the greatest scientists ever, Isaac Newton, who lived in England about 300 years ago. He was very well known when he was alive, being admired by many people for answering some of the most difficult and fascinating scientific questions of his day, but I'm sorry to say his long life generally was not a happy one. I wonder how he would have felt to know that even hundreds of years after his death, he is widely considered to be one of the most brilliant, important, and productive scientists ever to have lived. Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground. Heavier objects (really, more massive ones) produce a bigger gravitational pull than lighter ones, so as the heavyweight in our solar system, the Sun exerts the strongest gravitational pull. Forces keeping an object in orbit. Now if the Sun is pulling the planets, why don't they just fall in and burn up? Well, in addition to falling toward the Sun, the planets are moving sideways. This is the same as if you have a weight on the end of a string. If you swing it around, you are constantly pulling it toward your hand, just as the gravity of the Sun pulls the planet in, but the motion sideways keeps the ball swinging around. Without that sideways motion, it would fall to the center; and without the pull toward the center, it would go flying off in a straight line, which is, of course, exactly what happens if you let go of the string. "Shoot a cannonball into orbit" demonstrates how objects fall and move sideways at the same time as they orbit. Planet gives spacecraft a gravity assist. 1 Like |

SIRTee15:oga go and do a simple reading and stop displaying ignorance it is a fact that Antarctica is locked away from public exploration. I dont want to go over this again just go and do your findings. who says the earth must be round because the sun and moon are round , are there people living in the sun or moon, this logic no follow. you see as far as your eyes allow you. those things you see out there like the stars are not as far as you have been lied to. the horizon is around you 360° and you only see as far as the eyes allows due to perspective. what will make you think the earth is a ball, so you mean people are standing side ways right now in Nigeria according to the ball earth map. is there any way you can prove this?. |
Re: Why The Earth Surface Looks Flat by EMILO2STAY(m): 4:49pm On Oct 21, 2019 |
nwabekeyi:this is nonsense. all the experiments conducted to prove gravity has falied. gravity is just a word coined by that mystic called newton. it is very evident that things fall down due to density not because something called gravity is pulling it down, that's the reason heavier objects fall first compared to lighter objects. if I ask you to prove this things you say now you will disappear . |

EMILO2STAY:Gravity is most accurately described by the general theory of relativity (proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915) which describes gravity not as a force, but as a consequence of the curvature of spacetime caused by the uneven distribution of mass. The most extreme example of this curvature of spacetime is a black hole, from which nothing—not even light—can escape once past the black hole's event horizon. However, for most applications, gravity is well approximated by Newton's law of universal gravitation, which describes gravity as a force which causes any two bodies to be attracted to each other, with the force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. |

Re: Why The Earth Surface Looks Flat by EMILO2STAY(m): 8:20pm On Oct 21, 2019 |
nwabekeyi:instead of showing you one let me give you one to prove. newtons theory of gravity is founded upon the premise that all objects are attracted to all other objects based upon there mass. if this is true then a massive sphere or any other object by virtue of its mass should attract smaller objects to stick to it or orbit around it. now your assignment; get a football and try placing smaller objects on it while it is spinning or stable, then come back and tell me if they stuck on the ball or orbited around it. if you cannot prove gravity with this experiment I believe your own eyes will see the nonsense you call science. |

2metrelaurie:. I said prove gravity and your speaking grammar. which theory of relativity are you talking about, is it the very one George sagnac destroyed,.. the theory of relativity is a complete lie. it is based entirely on convoluted and deceptive mathematical models. Nikola Tesla called Einstein's theory of relativity a magnificent mathematical garb which fascinates, dazzles and makes people blind to the underlying errors. the theory is like a beggar clothed in purple whom ignorant people take for a king. and you and I know Einstein cannot be compared to Tesla

Re: Why The Earth Surface Looks Flat by Nobody: 8:46pm On Oct 21, 2019 |
EMILO2STAY:so what happens to the fact that both the football and the small object are close to a much bigger spinning object called earth? Did you factor that into this shabby experiment? |
