No, any fundamental 'discovery' that goes against the status quo
Lol, i disagree - but in any case; what “discovery that goes against the status quo” did you think we were discussing? What i said is well known and established. It’s most all “status quo” - not that that matters.
published in scientific journals
Again, science is about replication not the publisher racket. Are you familiar with the “crisis” in replication facing those “journals”? More than half of what is published across the board is garbage/junk/fraud. Although you are right that there ought to be a working system to foster and validate scientific claims - the publishing racket demonstrably isn’t that. Lots, if not most, things that “ought” to be, sadly are not.
The Theory of Everything, where Hawkings was laughed at, scoffed at, and told he was a loon, by the establishment.
As i said, i like historical fiction too - but it is important to remember it is just stories.
you are just a conspiracy theorist
Lol, imagine being on a forum called “conspiracies” and unironically saying something like this...
“Conspiracy theorist” is a meaningless derogatory designed (and procedurally used) only to discredit and slander. You would do well to refrain from using/perpetuating the tools of our common enemies.
Anyone can lay a claim that Jews control everything and that there is a secret cabal trying to hide the truth, well my friend, that is the true meaning of a conspiritard.
This “conversation” has sure taken a strange turn... What an odd non sequitur...
So put up or shut up
Completely agreed, and a great motto! I’m absolutely “putting up”. That’s what i am doing every time i share my views, research, and conclusions. That is regardless of the venue, which is irrelevant. You can, and evidently more than half do - routinely, “put up” nonsense in “reputable journals”. Publishing doesn’t matter, validation does!
that is the language of a coward
If you say so. I understand academia, and the parasitic profiteering publishing racket attached to its belly, far too well to fear it.
If you are so much smarter than they are
Lol, you misunderstand. The smartest people who ever lived were all wrong. It will be forever thus. Smart does not equal correct.
I am claiming that the commonly taught belief that the “curve of the earth” obscures distant objects/lights is incorrect. I am not claiming anything about my intelligence nor anyone else's.
Every flat earther is a fucking idiot
There aren’t really any flat earthers. That’s a heavily advertised (i.e. funded) psyop. They are advertised as idiots intentionally to drive legitimate interest and research away from a valuable subject.
To date, not one of you FE's has ever done anything more than make fake assumptions without any evidence whatsoever.
In general, i agree with you - however there are many earnest flat earth researchers which conduct legitimate - evidence based - research. The psyop is designed to obfuscate them.
Also, “evidence” is not the “slam dunk” it is often misrepresented as. There is evidence available for most anything, very much including things which are incorrect. Legitimate evidence is used to convict innocent people all the time. Legitimate scientific/empirical evidence is historically always used to draw incorrect conclusions and theories which are then taught institutionally to millions.
"No matter how far away the light source is - as you recede from it (or it from you) it will appear to converge with the horizon and eventually no longer be visible."
The only way this could possibly happen is if the stars were a projection a few thousand feet up. If that is your claim, then you are a lost soul who has drank the Kool-aid. We can tell stars are far, far, far away simply due to triangulation taken 6 months apart. We can see with our own eyes this is true. Now, if you forget your bull shit and admit stars are really, really, really far away, on a flat plane, no matter where you went, even to your laughable 'ice wall' of the Antarctic, you would HAVE to still see Polaris since it is so far above us all, it would never ever converge into your gay, fake ass horizon.
Any dip shit can say "everything is fake, life is a projection, the stars are not very far away" - that is the language of a low IQ moron, such as yourself. I told you to publish your 'research;' yet you will never because deep down you know you are wrong and would be laughed at by anyone with an education greater than grade 10. Yours is a simpleton view of the cosmos, whereas I, and all other sane people, know that the universe is neverending and massive. All celestial bodies are forced into a ball shape due to gravity, and no other object Hubble or any other telescope has ever, ever seen a flat disc planet simply leads to an undeniable conclusion that anyone that thinks we are on a flat plane is an imbecile that has no proof other than their stupid gay words that come out of their head.
BTW - I mention the Jews because of the OP post here dip shit, it's the kind of low-iq moronic self-loathing chit chat of a paranoid racist fuck wit. No fuck off and die coward. The planet does not need more morons and you are one of them. When you cock reaches your asshole, go fuck yourself and your flat plane earth. Simpleton.
The only way this could possibly happen is if the stars were a projection a few thousand feet up
There are some who claim this is the case. But actually the distance to them doesn’t matter. Perspective (which causes the “vanishing point” phenomenon which is the “reason” things that recede apparently converge with the horizon) is more to do with angular resolution / receptor density in our eyes. It doesn’t matter how far away it is - as long as we can see it.
We can tell stars are far, far, far away simply due to triangulation taken 6 months apart
Assumptions built on assumptions. Castles made of sand.
What if the earth does NOT move over that 6 month interval - and the difference in apparent position (used for stellar parallax) is then NOT caused by this believed (but utterly unempirical ie. unmeasured ie, unscientific) motion?
We can see with our own eyes this is true
Evidence abounds, it is often the interpretation of that evidence which leads to incorrect conclusions.
We can see that the star’s apparent position moves slightly over a yearly interval. That is very different than all the (unvalidated) assumptions built beyond that evidence that you preach as gospel (because astronomers preached it to you as gospel first).
you would HAVE to still see Polaris since it is so far above us all
This is a common misunderstanding. It is analogous to the common “why can’t i see the eifel tower from the top of everest then?” nonsense.
There is more than one reason. One is perspective/angular resolution (causing apparent convergence with the horizon and vanishing because the object is too small to be resolved), and the other is there is a lot of stuff in the way (most notably air and the things dissolved/commingling in it) which as i said - tends to cause light to curve convexly towards the surface.
Any dip shit can say "everything is fake, life is a projection, the stars are not very far away"
Anyone can say anything, dip-shit status not withstanding. But that doesn’t make them correct/incorrect. You claiming (parroting the claim, in point of fact) that the stars are unfathomable distances from us is a good example. In any case, i didn’t make any claim like that, so why don’t we talk about claims i actually made instead?
I told you to publish your 'research;'
And i told you that i am, right now, to you. Look at your reaction to this publishing! Witness your belligerent disinterest and zealous faith in your own preferred “status quo”. I may “publish” something in some form in the future, but there is nothing wrong with starting small. One of the major reasons i engage in forums like this is to share (“publish”) my research to subject it to scrutiny in the hopes of refinement (including refutation!).
All celestial bodies are forced into a ball shape due to gravity
Lol, yes - so we are taught and required to repeat. It is not insane to conclude that what you have been conditioned to believe through rote under the guise of education from childhood is likely incorrect. Quite the opposite!
If gravity (gravitation specifically; gravity is a phenomenon and has been defined for thousands of years - it is demonstrably real) doesn’t exist, then it can’t force any bodies - celestial or otherwise - to take any shape.
No fuck off and die coward
Ad hominem is the last resort of the intellectually feeble. They attack the thinker out of desperation because they can’t attack the thought. Do better if you can!
Given a powerful enough telescope, of course you would.
A common misunderstanding. The farthest you can see from the top of everest is a few hundred miles - more magnification can’t change that because the air is not completely transparent. The more of it you look through the less you can see clearly.
A good analogy is looking out towards the open ocean from underwater. At some distance from you - all you see is blackness. The distant light from the shark that is absolutely there simply can’t reach you and no amount of magnification can change that. There is too much “stuff” in the way (in the analogy, water and the things dissolved/commingling in it; in the example above, the air - which also behaves as a fluid - and the things dissolved/commingling in it.)
You don't understand basic physics
Lol. Look up diffraction/angular resolution limit. Physics isn’t for everyone, and optics are tricky!
Lol, i disagree - but in any case; what “discovery that goes against the status quo” did you think we were discussing? What i said is well known and established. It’s most all “status quo” - not that that matters.
