Measure the Radius of the Earth at Home? Checkmate Flat Earthers

#Shorts #Earth #math

We find the radius of the Earth with just a little help from a friend.

When we measure it, should it be the exact same time?

I’m not a flat earther. But this stick is doable on a flat model where I can move the sun anywhere I want it as they do. This concept don’t hold water…. See what I did there. I know the earth round bc my grandfather worked with the ballistic missile agency and built panels fir the Jupiter C rocket, and each time the rocket would come back into earths atmosphere from orbit he’d have to check the panel and he’s team would work / check the nose cone as that was the mission (testing nose cone after reentry. He told all about these missions he worked on. I know he wasn’t a lier. All his honors and medals he was awarded for said missions wasn’t faked in some conspiracy, when the missions were classified up until the 80s. Why spend all that money on a something that no one would even know about? My grandfather was a smart man and that’s why he was hired to figure out to design a piece that could withstand the vacuum of space and the pressure/ heat of reentry. When flat earth topic came about I researched my grandfathers story’s of said missions. I found the documents and even videos on the Jupiter C rocket nose cone testing and he’s stories were confirmed word for word. I’m his honor i debunk flat earth conspiracy. This stick one won’t do it. I can make it work on round or flat earth. There for it’s not a good debunk.

Measure an angle you say? use trigonometry you say? yeah you're gonna need a flat baseline for that pal. Any evidence that one can acquire an elevation angle from a curved adjacent (baseline) ? welcome to flat earth.

Sorry dude the Radius is debunked by flat earth. Research 'The Black Swan'.
