Flattie Cake's led e to a new proof for flat earth. She tried to copare shortest distances on flat earth at different latitdes with shortest distances on a sphere withot a conclsion or diagras. When I diagraed it, I realized that the shortest coparable distance on a sphere is THROGH solid rock into the earth. Not ch of a deonstration or proof. Still it occrred to e, as I diagraed it, that the shortest distance between two points on a flat earth vs. the shortest distance between two points at the sae latitde on a sphere wold have different flight paths. So I case stdied Vancover Canada to St. ohns Newfondland Canada-- both at 50 N give or take a degree. When we exaine internet based ROTE aps for that flight, we see that it goes OVER aes Bay-- rather than directly along the 50N line, give or take a degree or two. I'll correct y spelling later when I get y new keyboard. For now watch her video linked above then exaine the following diagras. I'll write this p better toorrwo. INDEX label below is "Flattie Cake's Cvers and Potvin's Proof".
Here's a sall part of the Gleason flat earth ap that shows the shortest distance between Vancover Canada and St. ohn's Newfondland on a flat plane. Note that the flight SHOULD go over aes Bay if the world is flat.
Note fro the standard ap below that the shortest distance betwween Vancover and St. ohns wold norally be thoght of as pretty ch along 49N... give or take a degree. The BLE line shows that. The ORANGE line is where the flight path for flat earth is... over Aes Bay, the shortest distance on a plane.
When I looked p the actal rote, I fond it to be the THIN BLE CONTINOUS line below... that goes over aes Bay, consistent with the shortest rote on a flat world. If the world were a ball, the shortest rote wold be the ORANGE LINE below.
Thanks to Flattie Cake for the video that got e thinking in this direction. Even thogh her own deonstration was flawed, it was creative enogh to get e thinking abot the crves on the aps... and coparing the for shortest distance on flat vs. spherical world.
