MCToon Sextant Challenge Explained ResearchFlatMoon 2022-04-14 | McToon currently has a $10,000 bit coin challenge. The only requirement is you have to only use flat earth mathematics, you can't use any reference to the globe. The money is in escrow and waiting for a lucky flerf to use the flat earth to find the locations where the sights were taken. No flerf has met the challenge yet, and only one tried, but used a sphere to do his calculations.As proof that the challenge is real and the money is available, McToon offered $100 in bit coin to the first one to use any method (including the globe) to find where he took three star sights with a basic app on his phone. It was solved using the globe earth in 4 min.In this episode, Bob goes through this navigation exercise, using the globe to find the position the sights were taken accurately.

GHA of Star is the Longitude of the GP of the Star.Latitude of the GP of the Star is the Declination of the Star...Note, as the earth rotates, the GHA to Aries and the Declination change min by min and second by second. The Sidereal Hour Angle to the star does not change.Remember to hit 'Like' and 'Subscribe', your support of this channel is appreciated.Join our Discord Channel at discord.gg/QwcFct7DWc Help the Channel by joining our channel as a memberPatreon- patreon.com/bobthescienceguyor sending a Paypal for equipment (I do take requests for content)paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ED65DTMU9AB8C
SIMPLE 2 Star Fix | Google Earth ResearchFlatMoon 2022-01-20 | We have used the sextant to find our location with a noon sight, now we move to the next phase and learn to do a two star fix with circles of equal altitude and google earth. This involves locating the Geographic Position of the stars and then using trilateration to find two possible positions, selecting the one closest to our dead reckoning position near Hawaii....This is the work behind the challenge I issues Nathan, QE and the 'Flat Earth Sextant Experts' that exposed their lack of even basic understanding of how the sextant works.Remember to hit 'Like' and 'Subscribe', your support of this channel is appreciated.Join our Discord Channel at discord.gg/QwcFct7DWc Help the Channel by joining our channel as a memberPatreon- patreon.com/bobthescienceguyor sending a Paypal for equipment (I do take requests for content)paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ED65DTMU9AB8C
Finding the Radius of the Earth with the Moon ResearchFlatMoon 2022-01-17 | 'You're Gonna Need R for That!!!'. How often have we heard that from science deniers?In the last few months, I've gone over a number of ways to determine the radius of the earth. 1/ The Method of Eratosthenes- This method uses the shadow cast by the sun at its zenith. Refraction is minimal, and by using three points we not only find the radius of the earth, we effectively rule out the flat earth.2/ The Method of Al Biruni- By measuring the dip angle to the horizon from a known elevation, we can use basic trigonometry to find the radius of the earth. We do have an issue with refraction, but we still get the radius within 2-3% and we can correct for it.3/ Great Circle Distances between known coordinates with confirmation of the actual distance between those points. With this we rule out the possibility of a flat earth and confirm the radius of the earth.In this video we introduce two new methods:4/ Aristarchus of Samos worked out the geometry to use common observations (specifically observations of the lunar eclipse and the angular size of the full moon) to determine the distance to the moon in terms of the radius of the earth and the size of the earth in terms of the size of the moon. By solving these values with radar, laser and parallax determinations of the distance to the moon, we can determine the size (radius of the sphere) of the earth.5/ Kepler's Third Law- by using the distance and period of the orbit of the moon and the period and the altitude of the orbit of the ISS. Subtracting the 400km altitude of the ISS from the resulting radius of the orbit of the ISS we can determine the radius of the earth.Note, at the end of the video, I have the orbital distance to the moon for all dates in 2022. You can do the math yourself for practice.Aristarchus and the Geometry of the Solar System:Part 1: youtu.be/BYwBlEq7T8M]Part 2: youtu.be/OU3hTLQOtNAPS DITRH owes me 3 bit coin.Remember to hit 'Like' and 'Subscribe', your support of this channel is appreciated.Join our Discord Channel at discord.gg/QwcFct7DWc Help the Channel by joining our channel as a memberPatreon- patreon.com/bobthescienceguyor sending a Paypal for equipment (I do take requests for content)paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ED65DTMU9AB8C

Bob Responds to Brians Logic ResearchFlatMoon 2022-01-06 | This is the edited and shortened version of my livestream response to Brian's Logic- a science denier that took issue with my evidence the earth was a globe based on the actual, measured distance between the cities of Perth and Sydney, Australia. On a flat plane, this distance would be determined by solving the third side of a triangle formed by connecting Perth, Sydney and the North Pole. On a globe earth, it would be determined by the Haversine Formula. The actual distance between Perth and Sydney (1778 Nautical Miles) will allow us to rule out one of the two possibilities.As an added bonus, I go over Brian's understanding of Spherical Geometry/Trigonometry, Great Circles and Rhumb Lines.This is the ASTROLABE (astrolabeshop.com/us/astrolabe-hem_H34.htm) I'd like to get for the channel.

Things Asunder Down Under ResearchFlatMoon 2022-01-03 | When dealing with the science denial community, we are used to correcting their errors in scientific reasoning. Sometimes, we catch them outright falsifying their observations and data. Bob doesn't tolerate frauds.In this episode Bob the Science Guy calls out Mitchell from Australia for using a Skiba Lens style parlor trick to falsify a rather silly flat earth claim.For a different approach to debunking this video (that it only has to do with changing focus rather than zoom), see this:youtu.be/ovsRJotuMZsNote, the easiest way to determine a flerf is faking an observation is if it actually agrees with his claim. This is a classic example and Bob rips him a new one by pointing out how he manipulated his observation to yield a false conclusion.This is the ASTROLABE (astrolabeshop.com/us/astrolabe-hem_H34.htm) I'd like to get for the channel.

Bendyzontal Lines and the Sextant ResearchFlatMoon 2021-12-30 | Lately the science denial community has been trying to raise doubt about the use of the sextant on the globe, and in fact claim it would work on a flat earth (while still using the globe based nautical almanac).We examine angular measurements using the mil dot sight reticle as a teaching aid. With the sextant, is there an adjacent side, much less a bendy one?The thumbnail is another example of angular size, using your hand as a guide to measure the angular size of objects in the sky. Next full moon see if if you can use your little finger to estimate its angular size (hand at arm's length). The angular size of the moon is roughly 1/2 degree.Remember to hit 'Like' and 'Subscribe', your support of this channel is appreciated.Join our Discord Channel at discord.gg/QwcFct7DWc Help the Channel by joining our channel as a memberPatreon- patreon.com/bobthescienceguyor sending a Paypal for equipment (I do take requests for content)paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ED65DTMU9AB8C
E6B- Intro to the Whiz Wheel ResearchFlatMoon 2021-12-29 | Prior to computers (and in flight school) we used a circular slide rule called an E6B to calculate fuel burns, distances and true airspeed/altitude. In this comprehensive video, we go over all the functions of the E6B in one episode.Note: When dealing with slide rules, the 1 or 10 mark is called the 'INDEX'. We have an index on both the C and D Scale (the white scale and the black scale). There is also a 'Rate Index' in the shape of a black triangle on the white C scale. This is the 60 min mark.Remember to hit 'Like' and 'Subscribe', your support of this channel is appreciated.Join our Discord Channel at discord.gg/QwcFct7DWc Help the Channel by joining our channel as a memberPatreon- patreon.com/bobthescienceguyor sending a Paypal for equipment (I do take requests for content)paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ED65DTMU9AB8C
Great Circles and Science Denial ResearchFlatMoon 2021-12-27 | FE Scholar Brian's Logic decided to 'challenge' me in a video the other day on the Haversine Equation, Formula and Great Circle Distances. Unfortunately he has no more understanding of Great Circles than he did of Gyrocompasses. We go over straight line vs great circle distances in this video and I correct Brian on the Haversine Formula and its' uses. Otis the Cat and Little Missy helped with the video. NOTE CORRECTION::::Michael pointed out a math error I made. When doing the Law of Cosines to determine the distance between Perth and Sydney, I made an error and reported the distance as 3.51 inches. It is actually 3.87 inches which compares well with the 3.85 inches I measured. The flat earth distance is over 4400 NM, the Haversine gave it as 1777 NM and the actual distance is 1778 NM. The globe earth is verified by distance and the flat earth is ruled out, again.Remember to hit 'Like' and 'Subscribe', your support of this channel is appreciated.Join our Discord Channel at discord.gg/QwcFct7DWc Help the Channel by joining our channel as a memberPatreon- patreon.com/bobthescienceguyor sending a Paypal for equipment (I do take requests for content)paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ED65DTMU9AB8C
