Flat Earth Lorentz-Latitude Distance Formula
The Flat Earth distance formula demonstrates remarkable accuracy across all
test cases provided by Will for this challenge.
Maximum error: 28.5 km
Minimum error: 7.6 km
Average error: 21.35 km
Dec 9th Addition 1 was added where we did a short distance calculation.
Dec 13th Addition 2 was published where we show why the Firmament has a height of 6371km.
Dec 22nd Amendment 2 an adding error was noted when I typed up the original paper notes into LaTeX. For example “Final result: df = 8, 612.3 + 3, 282.7 = 8, 972.8 km” of Los Angeles clearly makes no sense. The correct math in the detailed calculation is “Final result: df = 8, 612.3 + 360.5 = 8, 972.8 km” to do not use the original submission but I am keeping it here for the chain of events and transparency since globers are looking for any way to discredit this amazing breakthrough in science.
Using the same formulas from TFE #1 submission [1], we now want to determine the distance between Denver to Boulder. We found that both that the Flat Earth and Globe predict matching results of 39.80km.
This makes the Flat Earth Lorentz-Latitude Distance Formula even more sophisticated than initially apparent, as we didn’t simply disguise or rewrite the Haversine formula. Rather than using the established spherical geometry approach, we constructed an alternative formula that produces accurate results through the Flat Earth model.
