Measuring Earth Flat and Integrating over the Sphere for Infinity

The rate of angular change (dθ/dx = 1/R) that we observe from perspective matches exactly what they claim comes from curvature. This formula represents what we both observe, we just interpret it differently. They say it's from curvature, we say it's from the laws of perspective.

Can Flat Earth have two poles? 24hr Sun in Antarctica on the SVR model

Yesterday we explored the oblique mercator projection and now we explore the Awake Souls SVR modified map that makes it easy to tile. This clarifies the virtual reality we live in and also giving a visual demonstration to how south pole circumnavigation works. Unlike traditional Flat Earth models that depict Antarctica as an ice wall, the stereographic approach portrays it as a normal continent, aligning more closely with mainstream...

The Limitations of Globe Models. Globe Models cannot do what Flat Earth models do.

At the heart of the Firmament Trackers Flat Earth App is our sophisticated 3D navigation system. Using intuitive touch screen joystick controls, users can freely explore the celestial environment from any vantage point. The left joystick controls movement across the flat plane of Earth, while the right joystick adjusts altitude, creating a seamless exploration experience. One of our most groundbreaking features is the multiple observer system....

The Globe has no Model. The Interplay between Theoretical and Physical Models in Scientific Inquiry.

The relationship between theoretical and physical models in scientific research is more complex and multifaceted than commonly perceived. A prime example of this intricacy is the globe model of Earth, which, despite being represented by globes and maps, cannot be accurately replicated as a scaled physical model that demonstrates all observed phenomena. Specifically, it is impossible to construct a physical model that accurately depicts the...

Firmament Gradient Refractive Index (GRIN)

I calculate that we would need a refractive index of approximately 1.7-1.8 for the dome material. This is actually quite achievable with materials like sapphire (n = 1.77) or specialized optical polymers. However, to maintain efficiency over such large distances, we would likely need a gradient refractive index (GRIN) structure, where the refractive index varies through the thickness of the dome. The optimal gradient would be: Outer layer: n...

The Globe Model also has “Apparent Suns”

Globe models are not capable of plotting multiple observers at once which is why we only get edited photos that attempt to replicate what Flat Earth models do in real time. If you are ready to upgrade from Stellarium or SkySafari and want to see how the world really works and get access to features that only government agencies have such as multiple observers in real time then you're going to want to get yourself an Academic Membership with the...

How would sunspots appear if the Earth was flat?

This is an important test as it allows us to get past the simple astronomical claims of elevation and azimuth. Sure, we did predict the 24hr Sun at Union Glacier including the exact angles of elevations; however since there is only one sky, globers will lie and say that accurate Flat Earth predictions are actually globe predictions. Only wrong predictions will they accept. This is one of the reasons we know they are disingenuous. Having that...

Visualization Layer vs Data Layer in Models

"The 3D visualization is just a rendering engine - it takes coordinates and displays them. Whether those coordinates come from VSOP87, direct observations, or manually entered positions doesn't affect the accuracy of the visualization itself. We could swap out VSOP87 for direct observational data and the visualization would look exactly the same as long as the input coordinates match." - Dr. Steven Alonzo A globe model takes RA/Dec coordinates...
