What about you changing the subject when Timmy the Actornaught was caught faking the ISS. You changed the debate to a shape of the earth debate.
Toe-curlingly cringeworthy but fascinating in parts.

I'm still concerned about his child.


Post 500!

Dear Mr. Flat Stanley,

You have never replied to any of my previous questions.

I would like to ask, what are you seeking to achieve with your postings?

Many thanks,

Sandro IL Terrorista.

He wants to show that one largely insignificant man in the 21st century can prove the Earth is flat with evidence from YouTube videos. Forget the space agencies, forget science, forget logic, forget mathematics, forget years of hard work, YouTube is where the truth can really be found.

Rubbish, and you know it. All we ever do is ask you to consider questions, and all you ever di is fail to answer.

Your current kneejerk of instead wailing on with copious cut'n'pastes to show how put-upon you are is just your latest smokescreen, to avoid having to consider let alone answer questions which you refuse to think about.

But, I am a petient enough sort of chap, and so let me repeat the question you've been swerving for weeks:

If the Earth is flat, why does the moon look upside down from Australia?

At this stage, I now know that you have no answer for this. You still have to stick to your group delusion that the Earth is not a globe, though, and so you do, even though this simple question cannot be answered if the Earth really was flat.

What you did do was (surprise surprise) link to yet another piece of YT drivel. On this occasion I did you the courtesy of watching it although I was not surprised to see that it was by a person who is either pretty stupid, so doesn't understand the question, or else is a deliberate attempt to provide those with weak brains and limited analytical faculties with fake "ammunition".

Let me tell the audience what your video link shows. It shows a flat plate with a picture hanging from a ceiling. It then demonstrates that if you go to one end of the room and look back at the picture, the top of the person's head is, from your perspective, to your left.

And if you go to the other end of the room, the top of the person's head is, from your perspective, to your right.

And this, the author risibly claims to think, is "the answer"!

The flat plate is a cylinder. The image is on the bottom of the cylinder. The effect you would need is to be able to see the TOP of the flat plate, i.e. invert the plate so the image is on the TOP side and we could see the BOTTOM side.

This obviously does not happen.

If a giant were to take a massive replica of that plate to the Moon, and affix it to what we perceive as the "bottom" of the Moon, then people in Australia would see this replica plate as being, from their perspective, at the "top" of the moon.

That is the effect you need to be able to explain, Stan. And I know it drives you mad that you can't. So there you go. You are on your own. Your link is exposed for arrant and childish half-baked nonsense.

Do you agree, or have you got a different explanation now that I've exposed the previous bunkum?

On the subject of moons.

Surely in Stan's world, every moon would be a full moon as there'd be nothing to block out the sun's light? Unless the sun was underneath the disk, but how could it be, because there's always a part of the Earth in sunlight.

Think about the crescents - what's causing that shadow? And if it isn't the Earth, then what is it?

Also, on daylight.

Each hemisphere has longer days in it's Summer. So if we take the Northern Hemisphere as being the 'middle' of Stan's disk world, and the Southern being the outer bit, then over the course of a year, the orbit of the sun within the Earth's firmament will move outwards and inwards?

Surely the Southern Hemisphere Summer, Australians would see the sun effectively shooting across the sky at a ridiculous speed as to get round the whole circumference of the disk in a day?
