Ever wonder why it doesn't get dark immediately following the sun going below the horizon? Have you ever seen a hard terminator line sweep across the sky leaving darkness in its wake? Why does the intensity of the Sun diminish drastically as it approaches the horizon?
I have a whole lot of interesting "Science" and flat Earth material to post but unfortunately my slave job takes up most of my time 8 months of the year. In the meantime, I'm trying to post shorter articles with pictures that I have taken myself, and try to relate them to the flat Earth debate. At least to the point of bringing up questions and starting a discussion with anyone who has insight on the argument.
The sun travels away from you becoming smaller and less intense. Angles of light strike the clouds from nearly horizontal, but always slightly above the clouds and never below.
Even the globe model uses atmospheric reaction to explain the apparent position of the Sun when by its "true" position should render it invisible. Are we ever really seeing the true Sun?
If our sun were not 93 million miles away but more like 3000 miles and much smaller, what would sunsets look like? I think they would look much like this.
