Is the flat earth the truth or haox??
The theories of flat earth looks some what right of a kind but science disagrees it?
So what is the truth?Huh?

I believe the Earth is a flat and motionless plane covered by a dome, this is the truth.
Try this ..

One of the best documented methods for determining the Earth's roundness was first performed (to our knowledge) by the ancient Greeks. This was achieved by comparing the shadows of sticks in different locations. When the sun was directly overhead in one place, the stick there cast no shadow. At the same time in a city around 500 miles north, the stick there did cast a shadow.

If the Earth were flat then both sticks should show the same shadow (or lack of) because they would be positioned at the same angle towards the sun. The ancient Greeks found the shadows were different because the Earth was curved and so the sticks were at different angles. They then used the difference in these angles to calculate the circumference of the Earth. They managed to get it to within 10% of the true value – not bad for around 250 B.C.


This assumes a large Sun 93 million miles away, in the Flat Earth model the Sun is a small close object about 32 miles wide and 3,000 miles high; this can be measured empirically with a sextant. In this model the dome is a concave mirror that is used to project holographic lights such as the Sun, Moon, stars, planets and other celestial objects.

When the Flat Earth model with its small close Sun is applied to the shadows and sticks experiment it yields the same results.

Except that it doesn't work the way you are thinking when the stick shadows are measured at more than what GE people call 90 degrees. At 90 degrees and larger, the shadows produce results that can only happen on a GE.

Cool
