they due change as measured in precession.
globe flying through space? stars seem to follow their own orbits the same, to me at least.
thanks for the BCH contribution anyhow.
Yes rock flying through space. That's the actual model. And what about Halley's Comet? How can a comet ever be seen more than once? Wouldn't it just fly by and never be seen again?
Still doesn't make sense how a comet could hold together for thousands of years flying at hundreds of thousands miles an hour. Would fall apart in space before returning to earth
It does make sense as long as Halley's computation is reproducible and predicts quite well the comet's period. Why don't you show your computation to prove your hypothesis?
We do see different stars every night. Every month the main constellation (the one you see when you look to the south) changes. That was indeed the source of horoscope.
Right but they are the same pattern year after year and N star is same. If we were flying through space on a rock we would see different constellations and never the same one twice.
Compared to some stars the sun moves at a blisteringly slow 20 km/s. With the least distance between stars being ~4.8 or so light years the difference in constellations, particularly
The science community realized this flaw to the globe model and the only solution was to claim the stars are light years away. It's made up BS to keep the theory alive
Smurf community realized that by sending nonsense posts about Flat Earth can keep the humans busy. Flat Earth is made up BS by smurfs like you to fool humans.
There's no calculations to make. Just look at the sun. It's so obviously not 93,000,000 miles away I find it amazing anyone ever bought that as reality.
If you look at it in a logical and analytical way you can realize how far it is. If your thought is guided by faith and prejudice, then you still live in dark middle ages.
The sun is obviously not close and local because over the course of the day it doesn't change in angular size, also it goes down the horizon and disappears from view.
I'm not an expert, but my intuation says that the stars are so far away that in practice it is like the solar system were inside another sphere where the distant stars are projected.
