Flat Earth Math | June Solstice Elevation results: Flat Earth + Globe Earth @FlatEarthMath | Uploaded July 2017 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
CORRECTION (see below)
In a previous video (link below) I showed how you can measure the angle of elevation of the sun at solar noon on the June Solstice. In this video I share my informal results, plus demonstrate an online calculator you can use to predict what your results "should have been" using the Globe Earth model and the Flat Earth model.

CORRECTION: There's a on-screen typo, at 1:59 it should read: "2 minutes after solar noon, 3 days later: 73.27º" (That's 73, not 72!)
