Every couple of days, another Flat Earth video pops up talking about how Sun and Moon is not as far away as we all know, and have been able to measure it since the days of Greek astronomers around the year 250 B.C.
Oh no; according to the father of modern Flat-earth, Eric Dubay, on his video titled “NASA‘s Top Globe Proofs Debunked” he was kind enough to give us some actual numbers: sucker,
Now Eric tells us the Sun is 32 miles or 52.5 kilometres in diameter, and 3000 miles or 4828 kilometres away.
Well, this is not my first time debunking it. When David from DITRH tried to explain perspective with local Sun and Moon, I visually demonstrated what would happen in that scenario using computer modelling.
Recently I had some comments explaining to me that modelling does not mean anything. Of course when I mean ‘explaining’: I really mean ‘claim’ as that was the whole sentence.
So this video is for those people. I thought it would easier for you to understand the visual model: well, lets try some scary math instead.
