(which is what Tesla held).


There is a well-known paper of Tesla about the moon, who always shows the same face to earth.

How does that fact work on your fantasy flat earth with the semispherical dome? What's the trajectory of the moon on your fantasy flat earth, and how does it correspond to observation?

You're a flat brain fool, Ladislaus, who doesn't know what he's talking about! Wake up!

Nobody knows.  My opinion is that the moon is in or above the firmament and is in fact not a sphere but, rather, is concave, or at least it appears concave when shining on the firmament, which in general would be concave from our perspective.

Simple fact is that stars can be seen THROUGH the moon, and it appears translucent.  It's not a spherical rock as scientists claim.

You have this backwards. The globe model has been accepted as a simple fact by the entire weight of western civilization for 2500 years.

Not, it hasn't.  Eratosthenes original finds were not widely accepted, and it's been a disputed question, with varying opinions, until about the Renaissance.

Well, here on earth you can quite precisely calculate and measure gravity.

SOMEthing can be measured, but even scientists admit that they have no idea WHAT is that they're measuring.  Nobody knows what it is.  It used to be a "force" but that's now rejected.  Latest is Einstein's claim that it's just a bending of time-space.

Nobody knows.

:jester:  :jester:  :jester:


But you know that the earth is flat.  :fryingpan:

And after Walter van der Kamp you dishonestly (or ignorantly and foolishly?) misuse Nicola Tesla as a witness for your flat heap of dung.


It's not a spherical rock as scientists claim.

Which ones? Nicola Tesla? Walter van der Kamp?
