^^^ 200 proofs is good, one of the first flat earth videos to go viral years ago.

Next time you're on an airplane don't look but listen, "it looks flat" they whisper.

It only takes one FE proof failure, and the whole FE idea goes down the tubes.

Found a pro flat earth video few days ago and it blew me away. What I saw was too convincing and unbelievable.

I have been fighting off the idea that the earth is a disk and stationary but after watching it I was humble and ashamed of myself.
It also says the sun revovles around the earth, what? What on earth is going on in our world? Who is right on this matter, the ancients or the modern world? What a strange world we live in lol

Pls watch and be blown away. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ax_YpQsy88

I do not think the video is 100% true though. I give it 40%

Actually I beg to differ.
Batty understands the shit he writes is just that... shit...bullshit. Pure utter bullshit.
He just has this obsession with trolling and getting attention...and what better way to elicit
responses to his nonsense than to have a 4 year long farcical thread claiming the earth is a dome covered pancake and the sun is 32 miles wide.
Can you imagine this character IRL blathering on about flat earth proof, fish eyed lenses, perspective, NASA conspiracies,
curved water and all the other retarded drivel he's been banging on about for past 4 plus years in here?
He'd be thrown in the frickin loony bin.

It depends what gravity you give to the word "understanding". He can read - I'll give him that.

We can agree to disagree on this one. I pondered about it when I came across this thread. You can get attention without playing dumb.
Nah, he's above the average stupid, he must be!

^^^ The point of what you meant to say is this. All you need is one little flaw in your calc or applicationof it, and the whole thing goes out the window. Watch the video.

Notice that it is as you said for sailors, a rule of thumb. Never, ever, ever does it take sailors to a pin-point position. Rather, it gives them enough of a position that once they are in the area, they can use radar, sonar, soundings, visual sight, etc., to go the rest of the way. In the old days, before radar and sonar, sailors frequently piled their boats up on reefs, rocks, the shore, other boats, etc. This still happens even with the pin-point precision of radar and sonar. It's as you say, a rule of thumb, that gets sailors into the general area.

As far as flat earth goes, read my above post to see that flat earth is geometrically proven impossible according to anything that you say - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.52757422.

^^^ I actually meant to say maximum distance in the statement above. The angular resolution limit can be used as standard to gauge an objects actual size with. Sailors use the ratio of 1 minute for every 1 nautical mile, this rule of thumb is standard practice.

Here's a picture, it's flies in the face of a donkey.

If I can't perceive an object then it's not visible, your comprehension of the word 'distinguish' is at fault here not mine.

The diameter of the Sun is obviously a fixed value, only the minimum distance you can observe a 1 foot object changes with a change in the resolution limit. It's like measuring a an object with yard stick and a metric pair of calipers, you end up with about the same result it's just that one has a higher resolution.

The horizon line is everything squished together, the distance to this line if it's not obscured by a narrow band superior mirage changes depending on the angular resolution limit. Atmospheric refraction not withstanding no objects are visible past this line.

A summary would suffice.

From Batty?
Batty has major comprehension problems, he can't get his head straight, let alone write a credible summary of anything.

There:

Assuming 20/20 vision, at distances beyond 1/2 nautical miles a 1 foot object is too small to see; its angular size is smaller than 1 minute and it's not visible.

I mean what kind of idiot misreads this:

Quote

The human eye has an angular resolution of about 1 arcminute (0.02 degrees or 0.0003 radians) which enables us to distinguish things that are 30 centimetres apart at a distance of 1 kilometer.

Knowing that the human eye has an angular resolution limit of 1 minute allows for the calculation of the diameter of the Sun.

I don't understand how the angular resolution of the eye can be a factor in the diameter of the sun. Also, every eye's angular resolution is different and a camera can have a higher resolution than the eye, so, wouldn't that affect the diameter? Sorry if you have explained it already. A summary would suffice.

^^^ If you want to make a claim about what is being observed it helps to understand how vision works. The angular resolution limit of the eye, camera, etc.. making the observation can be and is a factor for some observations.

Assuming 20/20 vision, at distances beyond 1/2 nautical miles a 1 foot object is too small to see; its angular size is smaller than 1 minute and it's not visible. When observing the Sun its angular size appears to be ~0.53°. Knowing that the human eye has an angular resolution limit of 1 minute allows for the calculation of the diameter of the Sun. If perspective and atmospheric refraction are accounted for then ~0.53° equates to a solar diameter of 32 nautical miles (36.8 statute miles or 59.3 kilometres) at a ratio of 1 nautical mile per minute.

@FlamingFingers, the earth is motionless; it does not revolve.

I thought we had that covered, only your brain cells are truly motionless in the entire universe Batty. Brain dead to be exact, but still breathing.
I see it as mere confirmation that the universe is expanding along with your amazing stupidity which seems to also be endless.

I took a measurement of the sun today and it was no more than 1 inch across in diameter if that helps with todays theories Cool

Ha, try to make a measurement of Batty's brain cell activity - you fucking can't - it's a trap - there isn't any. Tongue
