Questions for this position

If gravity is dismissed as a real force, what keeps the atmosphere from dispersing into space? Why don’t the sun, moon, and stars fall or drift away?

by Luke Olson

How can one part of the world experience midnight while another experiences midday at the same time? Keep in mind that it must fit with other explanations.

by Luke Olson

What is your model for how far away the sun, moon, and stars are from Earth? It’s fine not to know exact numbers, but the distances can’t change depending on the explanation being used.

by Luke Olson

What are the sizes of the sun, moon, and stars in your model? Again, consistency matters

by Luke Olson

What is beyond it, and how do you know?

by Luke Olson

What is the flat Earth sitting on? How does that structure work alongside your explanation of gravity (or lack of it)?

by Luke Olson

Why do observers in the southern hemisphere see a completely different set of stars than observers in the north? Why does the southern sky appear to rotate around a southern celestial pole? Where is the southern celestial pole located in your model?

by Luke Olson

Why does the angle of Polaris above the horizon closely match your latitude in the northern hemisphere? Why does Polaris disappear entirely south of the equator?

by Luke Olson

What causes lunar eclipses? Why is Earth's shadow on the Moon always circular during a lunar eclipse regardless of the orientation? Why can eclipses be predicted decades or centuries in advance with great accuracy?

by Luke Olson

What causes seasons in your model? Why are the seasons opposite between the northern and southern hemispheres? Why is it summer in Australia when it is winter in Canada?

by Luke Olson

Why do daylight hours vary with latitude? How does your model explain phenomena such as the midnight sun and polar night in the Arctic and Antarctic? Why do cities at similar latitudes tend to have similar daylight patterns even when separated by oceans and continents?

by Luke Olson

Why does the angular size of the Sun remain almost constant throughout the day if it is moving toward and away from observers over a flat plane? Why doesn't the Sun noticeably shrink as it moves toward the horizon if it is receding into the distance?

by Luke Olson

Why does the Moon maintain nearly the same apparent size from horizon to set? Why do observers thousands of miles apart see essentially the same lunar phase at the same time?

by Luke Olson

If there is no gravity, what causes objects to fall at approximately the same acceleration regardless of mass? What causes tides? What keeps planets, moons, and stars in predictable long-term motion?

by Luke Olson

If Antarctica is an ice wall surrounding the world, what prevents independent expeditions, satellites, or circumnavigations from discovering this? How do flights between southern hemisphere cities work if Antarctica forms the perimeter?

by Luke Olson

How does GPS function? What are weather satellites observing? How are satellite television, satellite internet, and satellite phone systems operating?
