Is the World Flat? The Flatlander's theory..

[714steadyeddie]

how tall is a light house? .. 25x8 is 200... thats 16 feet. thats not much fall man, look at the drain pipe of your house.. thats an inch to a foot and that doesnt even look like too much.

The distance from which various lighthouse lights around the world are visible at sea far exceeds what could be found on a ball-Earth 25,000 miles in circumference. For example, the Dunkerque Light in southern France at an altitude of 194 feet is visible from a boat (10 feet above sea-level) 28 miles away. Spherical trigonometry dictates that if the Earth was a globe with the given curvature of 8 inches per mile squared, this light should be hidden 190 feet below the horizon.

28 times 8 divided by 12.. 18.6' curve.. its not much man.. are you just fucking with me?

You are focused on the number. Yes we know the variable is

Why aren't you reading the underlying problem ?

"Spherical trigonometry dictates that if the Earth was a globe with the given curvature of 8 inches per mile squared, this light should be hidden 190 feet below the horizon."


The light should be BELOW the horizon....

There's a growing number of believers in this flat earth business.
I was on YouTube the other day and couldn't believe how entertaining and into it some of these guys get.
The one about never getting direct flights from continent to continent made me think for a minute lol

numbers are fact. youre standing in front of a hill.. right behind the hill, there is a structure 100 feet taller than the hill.. can you see the structure?

it is entertaining lol.. fancy seeing you here

I was thinking the same thing bud.

Since I have entirely too much time on my hands I've watched way too many documentaries and conspiracy videos for my own good.
Still no foil hat made yet tho

haha.. did you ever make that heated floor? did the 8" per mile curvature affect the level of it?

Heated floor and rads are goin in this weekend actually.
Got a sweet lil bilage pump the other day that will run for 2days on a fully charged car battery now it's testing time lol
I'll let you know how it flows lol

itll definitely work, might pump too fast though, just keep it pretty loaded. what did you use for pipe

Half inch copper coil under a diy 45 gal wood stove high temp plastic pex type hose and a couple long fins up against the wall.
I'll take some pics for ya once it's all in

awesome.. make sure when its warm out you drain the copper.. sitting water will fuck it up if its there for a long time

If there's water in the copper it will be moving and quickly lol
500gal a min pump
We shall see if it's too much of a pain in the dick I'll just throw a small wood stove inside

might be too fast.. thats some quick water to heat.. be tough to have it cook when its zooming through the heat source like that.. but is there a way to hook a speed controller to that pump? dial it back?... or maybe make some kind of tank that sits on your stove full of water.. cook it then turn it on?

Plan to have the pump in a cooler
Kinda tough to explain it all but ya the pump is adjustable. A voltage reg should be able to dial it in but I just need to make it work then I can focus on perfecting it.
Got to many things going at once as per usual but I keep myself busy

sounds tough but sounds like a fun project for sure. did you get the chicken wire to anchor the pex?

Yes sir
Got a whole roll of it lol
Might throw some pex in the walls too who knows.
See how it works first then decide before finishing the inside.
Hands down this will be one of the most over engineered sheds in the history of mankind lol
