Steve | Ride behind the Sun on a Flat Earth Azimuthal Equidistant Flat Earth Map v3.2 @SteveFlatEarth | Uploaded July 2016 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
768 times actual speed or about a million mph. Earth only appears to be spinning because camera is attached to the Sun.
All 8 objects orbiting north pole stationary geocentric flat earth.
Sun - Bright Yellow making southerly path.
Moon - Grey path
Mercury - Yellowish green making apparent orbit around sun.
Venus - Light blue and only visible at top of model in beginning
Mars - Red (has a large altitude difference)
Jupiter - Blue
Saturn - Brown
Uranus - Magenta (only visible in beginning)
Neptune - Green (only visible in beginning)
What I'm hoping to show in this video. All the positional data comes from NASA/JPL Horizons project which is the source code for many astronomy programs such as Stellarium. I wanted to see what that data looked if flattened out. Long distance perspective is a poorly understood topic. In the beginning I didn't know what I would find but after inputting the data and positioning everything, many things started to show themselves in the shapes and positions of the paths. Mars and Venus both have a large disparity in their apparent angular diameter which translates to tall tube like structure that pulses north and south. All the objects move in similar fashions. North and south and up and down. Always accelerating at the time they start moving down and going inward to the north pole. Nothing is actually orbiting the sun but all objects make an apparent orbit around the sun because they accelerate past the sun (my next video showing a 10 year analemma will illustrate that) and then drift back behind it. Mercury Venus and the Moon show this more obviously but they all do it. Some just over a longer duration of time.
Working in this model is all solar and lunar eclipses, mercury and venus transits. Pluto was not possible to model with the numbers they give unless a 2 meter diameter object.
