    Also, something else that might be of interest to you. Have you checked this article on Wikipedia: Antipodes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Regarding flight times and the YT aviation videos, which I noticed have received lots of comments:

    I see what you mean. The Moon does appear transparent at times, which is indeed quite mystifying. What is the Moon? The Moon, the Earth and the rest of the planets have to be spheres for the heliocentric theory to work. So, they would perhaps simply adjust the data to match their theory or vice versa, instead of actually trying to figure out the real state of things. It is easy to assume everything is spheres for the model to work, so let it be. But is it really so? For example, if we see only one side of the Moon, perhaps the Moon is not a sphere at all. How about the Sun? The same thing, we cannot see the other side of the Sun as well. Of course, they have photographed it, so we now know for sure the Sun is a sphere, not that they doubted that even for a second. But if it is only a disc? That is not even considered, as it will be a huge slap in the face of heliocentrism. I don't buy the so-called tidal locking, especially given what we're told that the Moon moves away from the Earth, how can it be locked and move away at the same time? This is totally unrealistic.The only proof that the Moon is a sphere comes from the photos they have showed us. Great proof And how exactly can an average person verify that? Also, huge coincidence indeed for the Moon to appear about the same size as the Sun if the Sun is ~150 million km away and the Moon only 384000 km? Too many coincidences which make the whole thing very suspicious. I am just wondering how to prove that the Moon is not where they say it is, and perhaps not what they say it is? What experiment has to be done?

Real observing situations on land rarely approach this idealised model, and for my uses calculating rise and set times to the nearest minute is fine.

    The following factors need to be addressed:

    The Sun and Moon vary in position against the stars over a period of one day - the Moon moves about 12 degrees per day on average.
    There are latitudes on Earth where the Sun and Moon can be above or below the horizon for days at a time. The algorithm has to detect and report these circumstances.
    The time of Moonset will be about 50 minutes later each night after New Moon. There will be at least one day in each lunation during which the Moon does not set, and one day where the Moon does not rise. The algorithm must report these days.
    You must calculate the altitude of the Sun and the Moon as seen by the observer on the surface of the Earth - allowing for parallax from the geocentric coordinates.
    You must correct for the effects of atmospheric refraction (not relevant for the twilights).
    You must allow for the size of the Sun or Moon's disc (except for the twilights).

    @ Saros, thanks, it is going to take a while before i examine all these informations, but it is already obvious that behind this heavenly complexness we must be able to find much more proofs (then we already presented) against the universal vastness of astronomical lies...

    I wonder, how you are gonna comment next discrepancy:

    In the Cook's Strait Almanack for 1848, it is said:

    "At Wellington, New Zealand, December 21st, sun rises 4 h. 31 m., and sets at 19 h. 29 m., the day being 14 hours 58 minutes. June 21st, sun rises at 19 h. 29 m., and sets at 16 h.


    At Wellington, New Zealand, December 21st THIS YEAR sun rises 5 h. 44 m., and sets at 20 h. 54 m., the day being 15 hours 09 minutes. June 21st, sun rises at 7 h. 47 m., and sets at 16 h. 59 m.

    Regarding my "mistake" that i made trying to prove falsity of heliocentricity and geocentricity on the basis of difference between sidereal and synodic revolution with respect to Moon's "rotation" (on it's "axis"), i have to admit that this mistake gave me some food for thought:

    If we suppose that the moon rotates clockwise then my "mistake" would be valid argument because whole thing would be utter impossibility, but since this heliocentric (counter clockwise) model (of rotating moon) is as sinister as it is "round rotating earth" model we have to ponder on it much more carefully...

    The main question that rises out of this "mistake" of mine is this:

    DOES THE MOON ROTATES AT ALL AND IF IT DOESN'T WHY THEY SAY IT DOES? Maybe this question could confuse you a bit, but i am convinced that by giving a try to answer this question we are going to discover much more serious helio/geo flaws hidden behind the black curtain than just etymological issue concerning imprecise definition (of rotation).

    We could put it this way:

    We only ever see one side of the moon, why is that? Is it because the moon has a synchronous rotation? No. The moon doesn't rotate at all, it just travels in a circle.

    Stand in the middle of a race track and watch a car drive around it... you only see one side of the car - does that mean the car has a synchronous rotation? No!

    Sure, during a lap around the track, the driver's side of the car will face east/west/north/south, but that's not because it's rotating - it's because it's travelling in a circle!

    What would you call it if the car was in a device like a gimbal of a gyroscope so that its inertia kept it aligned to one direction and it was taken around the track on the back of a truck?
    It has gone around the track but you have seen all sides but it didn't rotate.

    What do you call that?

    I would call that "hammer throw":



    What do they hide? Maybe they hide stuff like these:

    IT is more than three centuries and a half since Fernando de Magulhane observed that the moon, during a solar eclipse, was not perfectly opaque. He says:--



    During a partial solar eclipse the sun's outline has many times been seen through the body of the moon. But those who have been taught to believe that the moon is a solid opaque sphere, are ever ready with "explanations," often of the most inconsistent character, rather than acknowledge the simple fact of semi-transparency. Not only has this been proved by the visibility of the sun's outline through segments, and sometimes the very centre, of the moon, but often, at new moon, the outline of the whole, and even the several shades of light on the opposite and illuminated part have been distinctly seen. In other words we are often able to see through the dark side of the moon's body the light on the other side.

    "In this faint light the telescope can distinguish both the larger spots, and also bright shining points, and even when more than half the moon's disc is illuminated, a faint grey light can still be seen on the remaining portion by the aid of the telescope. These phenomena are particularly striking when viewed from the high mountain plateaus of Quito and Mexico."

    Many have laboured hard to make it appear that these phenomena are the result of what they have assumed to be light reflected from the earth--"Earth light," "the reflection of a reflection." The sun's light thrown back from the moon to the earth and returned from the earth to the moon! It seems never to have occurred to these "students of imagination" that this so-called "earth-light" is most intense when the moon is youngest, and therefore illuminates the earth the least. When the operating cause is least intense, the effect is much the greatest!

    Besides the fact that when the moon is only a few hours old, and sometimes until past the first quarter, the naked eye is able to see through her body to the light shining on the other side, both fixed stars and planets have been seen through a considerable part of her substance, as proved by the following quotations:

    "On the 15th of March, 1848, when the moon was seven and a half days old, I never saw her unillumined disc so beautifully. . . . On my first looking into the telescope a star of about the 7th magnitude was some minutes of a degree distant from the moon's dark limb. I saw that its occultation by the moon was inevitable. . . . The star, instead of disappearing the moment the moon's edge came in contact with it, apparently glided on the moon's dark face, as if it had been seen through a transparent moon; or, as if a star were between me and the moon. . . I have seen a similar apparent projection several times. . . . The cause of this phenomenon is involved in impenetrable mystery."
    . READ MORE: Zetetic Astronomy, Earth Not A Globe: Chapter XIV. Examination of the So-Called ''Proofs'' of the Earth's Rotundity: Moon Transparent
    Also, when i read idiotic theories like these ORIGIN OF THE MOON, it just makes me puke...

    So, they say that the moon rotates because it has to be a spherical body, and because the Earth has to be spherical body and has to rotate, although there is no such evidence for any of these claims.

    Yeah, your are right, you are smart guy, that is why i was so delighted when you joined to the energetic forum.

    There is no rotation of the Earth on it's axis, and we know it on the basis of many experiments which have proved beyond any reasonable doubt the true fact of Earth's immobility.

    If the Earth is immobile then the Moon has to be much closer to be able to orbit Earth with moderate speed, but if it comes close enough to the Earth then everything else (all other celestial bodies) have to come close enough to the Earth too...

    Then geocentrists have to face next issue regarding close position of the Sun:

    Geocentrists who are not flat earthers have to defend earth rotation hypothesis, otherwise they can't explain days and nights on Earth. But, if Earth doesn't spin (and it doesn't-which you've excellent explained using flight airline schedules) then they have to get rid of earth tilt hypothesis because if Sun is orbiting TILTED and SPHERICAL Earth it can't produce 6 months of North Pole daylight, it can't produce even 24 hours continuous North Pole daylight. When you get rid of earth tilt hypothesis then you could still theorized geocentric Earth, but not in the context of The Earth as we know it, because Sun which daily revolve this time UN-TILTED but still SPHERICAL Earth (at close distance) could produce 6 months of North Pole daylight but during these 6 months, on SPHERICAL Earth such close revolving Sun couldn't cast any light not just to South Pole but to much wider/larger part of southern hemisphere (Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, South America etc...)...So, if the Earth is not spinning than it has to be flat.

    @ Saros, i've just realised that i made one more mistake: i was wrong concluding against Moon's rotation on the basis of difference between sidereal and synodic period...

    It seemed to me for a moment like a nice and elegant way of debunking Moon's rotation hoax, but it would have been to easy if i could had done it in so simple and so unrealistic fashion... Astronomers are liars but they are just not that stupid... Too pity!

    So, we have to refute my above elegant (but wrong) argument against Moon's rotation, and we have to continue our search for another (and this time valid) compelling argument of that kind.

    You see, you know and i know that the rotation of the Moon just can't be so precisely synchronized but to find absolutely compelling proof against Moon's rotation is just not going to be so easy as i thought it could be. However i have no intention to give up...

    So, let's be open, and persistent. If "persistent" is just another word for "stubborn" then sorry!

    @ Al, read carefully my post #108 and then try to answer this:

    Why in Falkland Islands Sun rise (on December 21th) at 4,29, and sun set at 21,10, and why in London (on June 21th) Sun rise at 4,43 and set at 21,21?

    @cikljamas as always you are "running in circles",
    you ignore the proofs
    or can't grasp them.


    Going back,
    on your flat map of the UN (where the sun runs in circles above the equator) and
    one lap represents 24 hours;
    show the calculations that determine the length of day for London and Stanley of Falkland Islands.

    You can use the following or whatever is easier for you.

    WHATEVER THIS MIRACULOUS FORCE IS, FLIPPING MOON (BY ITSELF) IS A VERY STRONG PROOF AGAINST HELIOCENTRICITY AS WELL AS AGAINST GEOCENTRICITY (WHICH IGNORES UNAVOIDABLE FLAT EARTH FACTS)!

    That is why main stream maniacs absolutely ignore so well documented fact that the moon is flipping over!!!

    And it is absolutely irrelevant if these moon's flips happen on the regular basis (or even all the time since God created the universe) or if it have begun to happen just recently, in both cases it is impossible to harmonize moon's flips over with heliocentric (or geocentric without FET) fraud!!!
    That's small heliocentric and geocentric flaw with respect to my newest discovery which is going to blow your mind:




    Let's point up the crucial assertion from another source:

    Since the rotational period is exactly the same as the orbital period, the same portion of the Moon's sphere is always facing the Earth.

    According to one another source:

    In other words, it takes the Moon the same amount of time to rotate around once as it does for the Moon to go around the Earth once. Therefore, Earth-bound observers can never see the 'far-side' of the Moon.

    So, every time (monthly) when sidereal revolution of the Moon is completed Moon should stop to rotate on it's axis (EDITED) for two days in order to show the same face to spectators on the Earth, otherwise every month Moon would reveal more and more of his hidden side and through 14 months we could survey entire surface of Moon's spherical body.

    SINCE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN WE MUST CONCLUDE:

    1. THERE IS NO ROTATION OF THE MOON ON IT'S AXIS
    2. IF 1 (see above) THEN HELIOCENTRIC THEORY IS FALSE BECAUSE WE DO SEE ALWAYS THE SAME FACE OF THE MOON.
    3. IF 1 (see above) THEN GEOCENTRIC THEORY IS FALSE TOO FOR THE SAME (see number 2) REASON.

I understand that the whole thing is suspicious, but I find it achieavable to reach at least the altitude reached by Felix Baumgartner.
    @ Saros, scroll up to post #92 and watch again all three videos, first two videos totally destroy Wild Heretic wild dreams about concave earth. Wild Heretic have tried to ridicule third video (aviation pt2) but he can't neither refute arguments presented in that video.

    Secondly, advocating his funny theory Wild Heretic uses many quotes from Rowbotham's "Earth, not a globe", but it is so ridiculous, as if i would use quotes from Bible to refute existence of God.

    Same is true for Wild Heretic and his attempts to prove concave Earth. It all sounds very interesting, but when it comes to the exact details you and him fail at some point. You should be able to convince even the biggest skeptics if you're really right. That is not easy at all. But if people don't buy it, then I guess something is wrong with the way you present your arguments. By the way, why exactly you deny the concave Earth model? Wild Heretic claims it is undeniable truth. Do you see the similarity between you two?
    I have no intention to convince the world, if i can't convince you what are my chances to convince the world?

    I am not genius, i am average guy, but i am not stupid either, and you know it...

    But if i convinced you my efforts would pay off, don't you think so?

    If people don't buy it and my arguments are valid then i guess people are stupid, if people don't buy it and my arguments are not valid then i guess people are smart.

    Now, seriously: it is about religion, not about science, that is the root of all major problems in today's world!

    Julian Huxley (grandson of Darwin's bulldog T.H.Huxley) at centennial celebration in Chicago 1959. proclaimed:

    Future historians will perhaps take this Centennial Week as epitomizing an important critical period in the history of this earth of ours - the period when the process of evolution, in the person of inquiring man, began to be truly conscious of itself. This is one of the first public occasions on which it has been frankly faced that all aspects of reality are subject to evolution, from atoms and stars to fish and flowers, from fish and flowers to human societies and values - indeed, that all reality is a single process of evolution. . . .In the evolutionary pattern of thought there is no longer either need or room for the supernatural. The earth was not created, it evolved. So did all the animals and plants that inhabit it, including our human selves, mind and soul as well as brain and body. So did religion. . . .Finally, the evolutionary vision is enabling us to discern, however incompletely, the lineaments of the new religion that we can be sure will arise to serve the needs of the coming era.
    Contrary to above horrific example of repugnant degeneration of human mind and soul i would like to remind us to marvelous wise words of great english righter and philosopher G.K.Chesterton:
    READ MORE: G.K. Chesterton:
    What Jim Tour, Ph.D., a professor at Rice University, who is ranked in the top ten most cited chemists in the world has to say about evolution: James Tour at Georgia Tech

    Dawkins straightened out - hilarious

    PILTDOWN MAN VS ECLIPSE OF 1919 WHICH MADE EINSTEIN, EINSTEIN - WHICH ONE IS THE GREATEST HOAX OF 20th-CENTURY SCIENCE?



    There is no science in today's science!!!

    After reading Behe's "Darwin's black box" no reasonable man can remain evolutionist!



    After reading Rowbotham's "Earth not a globe" no reasonable man can remain round earther!

    So, read the book ("Earth, not a globe"), don't read just reviews because all of them are absolutely deceptive!

    No it is not, this is why it is currently the accepted model:

    But the fact is, they all knew a non-moving Earth was the simplest solution. Take for example the words of physicist G. J. Whitrow in the 1950s:
    The result would surely have been interpreted as conclusive evidence for the immobility of the Earth (G. J. Whitrow, The Structure and Evolution of the Universe, 1949, 1959, p. 79).

    Other scientists also saw a motionless Earth as a possible solution to MMX, but were unwilling to accept it due to their philosophical presuppositions. Of his own MMX experiment, Albert MichelsonArthur Eddington Bernard Jaffe

    It doesn't mean it is flat automatically, but it is flat for another reasons! Absolutely plain surfaces of the oceans, lakes, rivers and other waters on the plain surface of the earth are the best proofs for FET!

    You welcome!

    No, no, i make mistakes (and when i realize them, i promptly admit them), but i never pretend!

    @ Saros, one final advice: just look up to sky (towards the sun) (the best time is one hour or so before the sunset) (wear sunglasses) for a second, or for a fraction of a second and answer to yourself (not to anyone else - it's dangerous these days - beware of spanish inquisition) is this celestial object (the sun) 150 000 000 km away?

    And if you really want to be honest towards yourself (not towards anyone else - it's dangerous these days as i have said) try to answer once again (but absolutely sincerely this time) to yourself, not to anyone else to this question:



    Giving to yourself one and only possible right answer to that question you will also enable yourself (finally) to see through the black curtain - the greatest deception in the history of mankind!

    God bless you!

    P.S. God (Bible) can't be wrong!

    OK, you have provided some perhaps good evidence. I will look through it and let you know. You're probably a true believer in this, but I just don't get it how come you're so confident even though you might very well be wrong too. It is a bit fanatical. Not to mention that if it is flat you would encounter a whole bunch of other issues to explain like what is beyond the ice ring and so on...I am convinced convex Earth has been proven much more categorically than flat Earth. That is why it is currently the accepted model. By the way, I am not a proponent of heliocentrism, but it makes much more sense for the Earth to be a sphere, as we have lunar eclipses, sun eclipses etc. The Earth might theoretically be static though, but it doesn't mean it is flat automatically. During lunar eclipses you could clearly see the Earth's shadow covering the Moon's disc. It could be another body, but no evidence has been found that it is so. Anyway, thank you trying to convince me. I appreciate your effort, sorry for saying you're a troll, but you do act like one especially when you make mistakes and pretend you're right, and then admit you were wrong.
