[quote:Anonymous Coward 79971877:MV80NzAxNjc1Xzg1NTgwMzU4Xzk4NUJGMUVE] BTW, If we're on a sphere, 2 dimensional parallax math doesn't work to calculate didstance. The furthest apart that we can place two observatories would be 7,917.5 miles. Not sure how good you were at trigonometry but we cant physically or accurately measure ANYTHING further than 300,000 miles away from our supposedly sphere shaped earth. Knowing this, they try to confuse you with "parsecs" which are just over 3 light-years each. How many miles are in a light-year? Glad I asked. 186,000 miles per second times 60 seconds times 60 minutes, times 24 hours, times 365 days equals 5.879 × 10 to the 12th power. That's a hell of a lot more than 300,000 miles for sure.

Genesis:
1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
In the vast universe of creation I believe at the beginning of this world an extremely small part of this water (in the midst) was separated by the newly created firmament. The water below being spherical and also the water above. It is commonly believed this water that was separated above had become like a canopy immediately above the atmosphere of Earth but I disagree. Almost all of the water is above in which the Sun, Moon, planets, stars, etc. where created using this water (Sun operates in hydrogen fusion/fission right?). The boundary beyond imagination and the universe outer boundary meet is where I believe this super vast water lies; covering the universe.
