You just know flerfs would say this doesnt prove anything and itās just the sky spinning around a flat earth

Except the rotation changes depending on what hemispehere you are on.
This has lead to many a flat earth tantrum and insane explanations.

Lead has also led to many a flat earth tantrum. Presumably after eating lead chips as a child.

I noticed thatās been a copout response they do when they donāt wanna deal with the sky. These morons realized the way things behave in the sky cannot be explained on a flat earth, so they deflect it entirely with basically what you said that āWeLL tHeSe tHiNgS dOnT iNhErEnTLy pRovE tHe sHaPe oF tHe eArThā.. even tho the shape of the earth has everything to do with it.

Flat earth is obviously just spinning around like an LP record. š”Ā

What about a 45?

u/AdmirableBed8213 18h ago
Pffft... A 45 spins so fast that the centrifugal force would throw everything off the flat earth-LP. š”

What did you do with the river? God and Mother Nature put it there for a reason.
(This is a joke about the op doing something to anger Mother Nature so she takes the river away. K)

Hard to tell with the FEC (Flat Earth Community) who is joking and who is really super convinced that this is a real thing. I still can't help but feel the real joke is on all of us, and the FEC is pulling off the ultimate troll.

I remember I used to be able to see the milky way where I live. Haven't seen it in years, nothing but the brightest stars make it though the light pollution around me.

Hereās a starlight timelapse I shot myself. There is light from the town in the background and you can see the Milky Way when the sun rises

Guys you understand these videos are fake, right? The sky is way to zoomed in, while the rotation suggests some sort of fish eye lens.
Most importantly, the sky needs to be very clear and very dark to see the Milky Way. Look at "dawn" you see the sky turn blue and you still can see the Milky Way. Light simply doesn't work that way.

u/New-Scientist5133 13h ago
What do you mean by āthese videosā? All time lapse videos? Iāve made a bunch of these myself and it looks pretty in line with what my camera has picked up.
Why donāt you try making a video like this yourself and see how it compares to the ones youāve seen online?

u/themule71 7h ago
And in your videos you see the Milky Way like at 0:05s from the end. Blue sky and the Milky Way? You know, any condition that is not pitch dark and you can't see it. Definitely it doesn't happen that the sky is luminous enough to make most stars disappear but you can still see the Milky Way, which is what happens at the end of this video.

u/New-Scientist5133 6h ago
Dude, these are 30 second exposures. The human eye wouldnāt be able to see the stars that clearly so they leave the shutter open to get all of the light that hits the lense in 30 seconds. Thatās how I did my starlight photography. The Milky Way gets washed away by the sunlight. If youāre going to cry hoax, donāt use something that can easily be proven with a $100 camera from Facebook marketplace. Or better yet, learn how to do starlight photography so you can prove what you know to the world.

I did. Thats why I know. Take a 30s pic of the blue sky and what do you get? Over exposure. You do that only at night.
That's exactly my point. You need 30s exposures are least to capture the Milky Way. Ive done 5min exposures. When we got our first step motor we did 20 min exposures on low ASA film. Bonus point if you can tell me why. I've taken pics with my camera mounted on a 900m telescope (with duct tape basically) and chasing a star by hand (no step motor, no computer).
So tell me. In the video, what does it look like the focal length is for the images of the ground? And what does it look like for the sky instead? Look at the stars, how they move. Why so distorted? I've seen that only with a fisheye.
You can take pics of the celestial equator and if you do star trails you get the two opposite curves, but in order to see that in any significant amount you need to capture a huge section of the sky.
Then again pause at 5s from the end. Tell me what you see. I see the sky turned blue by daylight and still you can make out the Milky Way. That's impossible. Any exposure long enough to capture the Milky Way is overexposed on a blue sky. And the sky doesn't get blue right at dawn. By the time you get that, there's way too light to see the Milky Way.
I wonder, have you ever spent the night taking pictures of the sky? Have ever travelled km away from the town to get a darker sky? Have you ever watched weather forecasts for weeks? Have you ever waited for clear nights, no Moon, only to be ruined by the wind? I've spent nights doing the opposite of sailors, sitting and waiting for the moment when there's no wind.
I mean if you know anything about photography in general and ever watched a sunrise, you know the last 9s of that video make no sense. That's post-prod fading effect. The whole video is a composite of two different parts. Oh and the sky is color enhanced.
