>>12578569the earths shadow on the moon during a lunar eclipse is always circular.there is only one geometric shape whose shadow is circular no matter the orientation... and that is a sphere.discovered in 525 AD.
Measure the shadows of the sun in a stick at least 10km apart at ground level at the same timeEratosthenes did the experiment and measured the size of the Earth with only a few hundred km error. At 250AD
>>12578646Sorry, it was actually 250BC
>>12578569Eratosthenes wants a word with you
there is day and nightthere are multiple time zones

>>12578569Go to Warren Dunes, Michigan with powerful telescope. Look out across lake Michigan at the Chicago Skyline. See pic related.
>>12578751roundtards: you can't see the curvature bro also roundtards: look you can see it it's round!!!!!!!
>>12578569Things you need>a strong laser pointer>a mechanic's level>a large canvas with easel>some markers>a boat or raft>a large lake >an assistantWait for a calm and windless evening/night. Setup a tripod with the laser pointer on the bank of the lake so that it is level with the ground, aka 90° to the pull of gravity. Set the easel with the canvas on the boat and send your assitant with the markers on a track over the river. He is instructed to mark the light of the laser on the canvas every 100 m. You will see that the point wanders upwards, which is one of many proves for the curvature of the surface of the lake and thus the earth. This is fairly easy to reproduce for anyone sceptical.
>>12578569>he believes in the earth
>>12578569Proved your flat earth model so we can marvel at the lack of equator and Northern/Southern hemisphere while still trying to imply the seasonal differences.
the spheroid minimizes the gravitational potential energy
>>12578569I think we all know the true shape of the earth.
>>12578972>on a boat >level
>>12578569If the earth was a globe, why wouldn't people just fall of the bottom?Globe earther shills still can't answer this question. And "muh gravity" is such a fucking braindead cop out answer you might as well say "magic"
>>12578972This kills the flat earther
>>12578569Because if it was a square we wouldn't call it a globe.

This law extends from ship mast-towers of 20 meters, where you can see about 10km to airliners at 10 km, where you can see things up to 250 km away. The law is very easy to check today, and it can be done by anyone from a local mountain.

>>12578569Go to a port and watch the sails of a ship dip below the horizon. The fucking greeks figured this out thousands of years ago

>>12578569I wanna know what true scientist think about people who think the earth is flat.
You can use airline flight times and a little geometry to determine the shape of the Earth. Give it a try.
>>12579803they probably just sage threads like this desu
>>12578608So imagine a demon using an accursed sphere to cast the shadow from an apparatus that is actually a series of gears to give the impression of the waxing and waning of the moon. Nice try but hardly convincing.
>>12578569The sun and moon both look circular, as if spherical and seen from a great distance. Why would the Earth be different?
>>12578569None of this is real anon. You're in a simulation induced by Jesus Ibn Shiva a.k.a. the Holy Astral Engineer and they want you to believe that 0.9999 = 1 despite the homotopy group of Earth being trivial.Wake up!

If you jump from a 15 floor building you can see the horizon. Try that
>>12580024>the homotopy groupWhich one?
>>12578569launch your own satellite
>>12579920A cylinder would look indistinguishable from a sphere at a distance
>>12580598>long nose man destroys flat earthersi'm not surprised
>>12578569Earth can't be a perfect circle due to his motion 1) around itself 2) around the sun.If you r not dumb enough to know what acceleration is, dude it's pretty easy to understand.TLDR;Spinning push equator niggas away
>>12578569Go to the beach wait for the sunset and lay flat in the sand. Right after the sun hides, get up and you'll see it again.Make a really big pendulum, as time goes by, the direction it swings will change. You can go to different latitudes and the rate of change of the swing changes from none (at the equator) at all to 1revolution in 24 hours near the poles). For understanding how it works use google, I ain't doing your homework.
>>12578569It's not, it's elliptical
>>12578972curved != round
heres how you would figure it out:put a magnet out into space directly above your headwith a metal pendulum feel the force acting on the pendulum by the magnetnow:A) if the earth is a sphere you should be able to find a place on the map where instead of feeling an upwards force you feel the pendulum pull to the side onlyB)if the earth is flat you will always feel a partial upwards force on the pendulum no matter where you are as its always above you and never to your side.alternatively: you could set up a gyroscope which ensures you have always a straight line then go on a trip around the equator until you get back to your original position. would that satisfy you?
>>12578646It gives the height of the sun assuming earth is flat.
>>12579374This is some stinky bait.
