Light doesn’t bend, calm water is flat. CHALLENGE at a lake put a stable laser dot (firmly attached to the shore) SHOOTING onto a poster attached to a boat, k? The boat is on calm water, no waves (like early morning on a lake) If the earth is flat the laser dot will not rise above the point it was originally pointed at as the boat travels farther and farther away from the shore. If the laser rises then there is a curvature to the strait shot land/water between the boat and the laser.
Any thought on this experiment, pretty simple way to prove your theory on a lack of curvature over a large distance, hell you could sail that boat pretty far and still see a laser dot. And if the earth is flat then the laser dot will not rise above the level of where it was pointing originally.
What do you think? This would prove to me the earth is flat, as it is repeatable direct empirical evidence! What is whiny with this experiment, criticism is encouraged, please explain yourself.
Ok I’ll lay it out simply, I didn’t mean any hostility all love. 330 am on a lake a boat with a poster board facing the shore is placed. A laser pointer is pointing from a fixed height and location on the shore, the laser pointer is 5ft above the surface of the water exactly. Therefore the dot will be five feet from the water pointing onto a poster. Mark where the laser pointer is hitting the poster.
The temperature must be cold but not freezing, can’t do this on a frozen lake lol. Mainly because of the light bending effect of temperature gradients like some other smart people inquired about.
Just Sail the boat farther and farther away and if no noticeable change in height occurs we live on a flying pancake ?:)
I don’t think I left anything out. Sconce is driving by heresy so it’s these difficult conversations that actually progress thinking and I love to have them.
God bless yah
Ok I like your better ❤️
