That's right just keep on talking about how guys are seeing stars...

I'd love a flat earth explanation for why the stars appear to rotate around the earth four minutes faster each day than the sun.

Clearly they're on a different cycle than the other celestial bodies. One thing that's absolutely clear and proven beyond a reasonable doubt by the "Airy's Failure" experiment is that the stars are in motion and the Earth is at rest.

Yeah, that isn't what the experiment shows.  That's what flat earthers who don't correctly interpret the findings think it shows.

The experiment is too simple to mis-interpret the results.

But flat earthers are too weird to interpret it correctly.

Can you please explain whats this experiment is?
Please dont let me google something right after holidays Kiss

Hard to imagine in this day and age that there are still folks around who think they can make make water stick to the bottom of a ball and spin it at 1000 miles an hour and just like magic no drop gets lost.
A the fairy, fairy world.

Atleast grant us the same rights which you exert since page 1 Smiley

Edit

But honestly do you know the difference now?
Because even the site you quote explains something about it ^^

...pruned...

Falling? Like due to gravity, the magical thing flat earth people say doesn't exist?

It must be magic because the physicists sure can't explain it.

"Everything is a source of gravity, for reasons that we ultimately do not understand." -- http://van.physics.illinois.edu/QA/listing.php?id=195

Give me a break.  Seriously?  Yeah, it's unexplainable inasmuch as all the "why are we here?" and "what is our purpose in life?" also remain unanswered from a scientific perspective.  So, you take that and not only use it as a reason to denounce gravity, but simultaneously place the same handicap on your own FE bullshit, as well as any and all other theories that have ever been created (without realizing it).  What's worse is you're taking a theory (of gravity) that has all of the evidence, sound modeling, and predictability you could ask for, and cast it aside in favor of some flimsy, weak-ass theory that is wholly unsubstantiated and internally contradictory.  You're so far up your ass that you think ignorance somehow can't find you there.  In reality, you're swimming in ignorance, and it smells like pure bullshit.

You're the one who claims a day is 23 hours and 56 minutes long, who's the one swimming bullshit?

Oh, it's still you.  I guess you missed the point of referencing the sidereal day.  Your point had been that after ~180 days, day and night should be essentially reversed if the Earth is rotating around the sun.  The problem with that is that there is one more sidereal day per year than there are solar days.  This means that after a solar half-year, the Earth, relative to the stars (sidereal time), is facing the opposite direction.

So you're going to stick with your claim that a day is 23 hours and 56 minutes long?

Allow me to reintroduce your eyes to my previous post.

How Long is a Day on Earth?
Exact Day Length* — Fri, Dec 25, 2015

Today's prediction: 24 hours, 0 minutes, 0.0014128 seconds (+1.4128 milliseconds)
Source: http://www.timeanddate.com/time/earth-rotation.html

But please keep telling us how a day is 23 hours 56 minutes long so that the Sun isn't directly overhead at midnight every ~180 days ence ison your bullshit globe Earth.

Did you click on my link and checked what the difference is?

Robin i dont think you understand the difference between sidereal and solar day.
