Though that video may SEEM to prove globe earth, it doesn’t, because the limited scope of the suns rays plus the law of perspective can give the same result on a flat earth. Lived on ocean 20+ years..seen literally thousands of sunsets. Every one just as seen in video above. Sun drops straight down out of the sky and right into the ocean it goes. Once it gets close to the horizon it is gone within a matter of minutes often with a quick green flash. A 'vanishing point' sun would be slow and gradual. The "perspective" argument is complete nonsense but the reality is that is all fe has so they gotta run with it. Nowhere to run though. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79883256 you know humans are mostly made of water? You do know The total molecular weight of water is only 18 grams. also air pressure and the attraction of each individual molecule to the center of mass and each other keeps the oceans in place. Mass of the earth gives a greater attractive force than that of the earth tuning slowly once every 24 hours..you will no doubt say but, but 1000mph......that is nothing speed is relative. The oceans stay in place because the earth is flat. There is no gravity—only density and buoyancy. ROFL Explain Tidal forces and orbital bodies if no gravity. Explain objects falling in a vacuum chamber? Density does not give you a downward vector. What gives things Mass? no it not density. Why is the air pressure in my house the same as outside? why does this pressure drop the higher you go from sea level? if you removed the atmosphere would you float off the planet? Because that what you saying. Why would oceans stay on a flat earth? what would hold it in place. Don't say the atmosphere because then i'll ask what holding that in place..as we all know air pressure gets less the higher you go. You'll say a dome lol then it would have to be a fully pressured system and pressure would have to be even all the way up to the dome. |

Sun Goes Down Not Around Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75807155 (title of 'sunset' video couple of posts above - forgot to put) The sun goes both around and down. It appears to go down due to the limited reach of the suns rays and the law of perspective. Does not get smaller though as it goes away and larger at noon, does it? why is the sun always the same size? |

A vanishing point sunset would not necessarily be slow and gradual. Because the light of the sun only has a limited range, it is abrupt. The law of perspective only reinforces that fact. |

Also, greater refraction near the horizon makes the sun appear larger as it gets smaller by fading away. |

It’s range and intensity are both limited, and this is the reason for the sudden drop, which is reinforced by perspective. |
