    Refraction Variations Over Water to Bell Island

    Exactly. I have no idea what we're looking at here. Sorry to seem grouchy, but your whole presentation is oppressively vague. You don't even tell us what country you're in. I think you're standing in Labrador or Newfoundland. "Bell Island" is actually Baccalieu Island... I think. Give us a...

    Refraction Variations Over Water to Bell Island

    Here's a more extreme example of the same sort of thing taken through a more powerful telephoto lens. The dark band above is a superior mirage of the ocean. The light blue between is the sky. On the left is something interesting. I think this is a motorboat, just beyond the normal horizon...

    Refraction Variations Over Water to Bell Island

    Bottom photo: That "horizon" to right of the island includes a superior mirage of the surface of the ocean beyond the island. There is a kind of sandwich of dark, light, dark water. That top dark band is an inverted image of the surface of the ocean. The light blue band is where the "normal"...

    TFTRH #8 - Sasha: Chatting with a Flat Earther

    Back in 2015 I asked Dr. Andrew Young for some advice on how to approach debunking geocentrism. His reply included material on the Foucault pendulum. On the website you referred me to, or on some page I found that it cited, there was mention of the Foucault pendulum. This is essentially a...

    TFTRH #8 - Sasha: Chatting with a Flat Earther

    I'm still puzzled, and even bemused about one point. Why does the conversation center on theory? What about the fact that there's nothing at all mysterious about the map of the world? People travel all over the world everyday, and have been for hundreds of years. Do ships just set out from...

    Why do spacesuit-wearing astronauts need blankets after returning to Earth?

    One minor thing. The Kazakh semi-desert is an ecoregion in the deserts and xeric shrublands biome, located in Kazakhstan. The climate is semi-arid and continental. In a semi-arid biome don't assume there has to be snow on the ground when the temp is below freezing.

    Full-Disk HD Images of the Earth from Satellites

    You don't seem to be reading responses. -We've already shown that your assumption that the Musk photo was taken at distance of 100 miles above the Earth is baseless. It was probably thousands of miles. -Surely you can understand that if the EPIC camera (on the Deep Space Climate Observatory...

    Full-Disk HD Images of the Earth from Satellites

    Getting into a bit of a Gish gallop here, but I addressed that issue in August of 2015: https://www.metabunk.org/nasa-lies-debunked.t6698/ (Many other issues are addressed as well)

    Full-Disk HD Images of the Earth from Satellites

    How do you know it was "100 miles up"? It sounds as if you are assuming this figure. As already stated, it was an elliptical orbit: Perigee of 180 kilometers - 112 miles Apogee of 6,951 kilometers - 4,319 miles If we are assuming, why not assume it was 4,319 miles up when the photo was...

    Havana Syndrome: "Sonic Attacks" at the US Embassy in Cuba - Mass Hysteria?

    Little yappy dogs barking incessantly for no reason. Wow, that is strange.

    Havana Syndrome: "Sonic Attacks" at the US Embassy in Cuba - Mass Hysteria?

    People tend to think of "radiation" in intuitive terms; or, really, feel about it in an intuitive way. It's simply something bad. Associated with sickness. Like black magic, it causes you to get sick in mysterious ways. In analytical terms microwave radiation is non-ionizing , and could not...

    There are two typos in my latest star photo. Maybe I should fix that. -Gamma Lupi -Kappa Centauri There... fixed.

    Stephen Hawking's "Genius" Helicopter Demonstration of Lake Curvature

    This was a reality show. A bit of fluff. Entertainment. Not serious. Rather silly.

    Stephen Hawking's "Genius" Helicopter Demonstration of Lake Curvature

    This TV show was a bit of entertainment in the manner of a reality show; a format I find annoying. There's no need to take it seriously. Honestly, Hawking was a bit of a media tart.

    Direction to Sun vs. Sun position above the AE map visualization

    Even assuming the flerspective explanation for sunrise and sunset, which somehow makes the Sun invisible during part of its "orbit" over the FE: During the months when there is more than 12 hours of daylight, you would be seeing the Sun as it passes through more than 180 degrees of its orbit...

    Observations of Brighton from Worthing Pier

    There's also the issue of scattered light. In the above video we are seeing laser "beams" coming from the lasers set up right there on the beach. In a vacuum the "beams" would be invisible. What we are seeing is light scattered by dust, haze, etc. That spot of green light in the distance...

    Observations of Brighton from Worthing Pier

    It's hard to tell what's going on here in this mess of compression artifacts, overmodulated microphone and waving camera. It looks like the camera and the red laser are set up well above the water level - much more than one meter. They are trying to imply that they are one meter above water...

    Claim: Australia was not visible from the moon for Apollo 11 Broadcasts

    This second post will concentrate on the material from the AULIS site alone. (This is the site of "Phil Kouts PhD" which is a pseudonym for... someone.) All material from inside the external source boxes is from: http://www.aulis.com/moon-earth.htm The second thing to account for is when and...

    Claim: Australia was not visible from the moon for Apollo 11 Broadcasts

    (Your post has a problem. The link and the material in the external source box don't match! The material in the box is not from this link to the AULIS site. This is confusing.) There are two interwoven claims being made here. 1. Australia was not in line of sight at the time of the TV...
