Its something you most likely learn before he even start school, but if you ask a American how to count to 10 in Japanese would you say " At 30 you didn't know how to count to 10 in Japanese? Wtf." There are a lot of simple things you could learn but even if its simple, that doesn't mean you need to know it all. And knowing that it winter in Australia when its summer in America is something most people wouldn't know if they never left America. Its something you wouldn't even need to know.

    I love Spring. Spring is the season of life.
    No more the bare wands that told of winter's magic, here come the green flags, the parade of spring in bright bloom. The chorus of the skies has called forth the promise of the earth and sunshine combined. These weeks will be as a developing photograph - the colours deepening with the richness of the season.
    The early morning sunlight, soft and diffuse, gives way to the first strong rays of the day, the ones that bring true warmth. In this light, water evaporates in slow waves, waves that eddy in the gentle breeze, flowing upward to white-puffed clouds, ships of white in the blue above. The opera from the trees becomes all the more powerful, as if these golden rays are their conductor's wand, and together they are the song that calls forth the spring.
    There is a playfulness in nature, in the skies, woodland and soil. The time of plenty is coming and the joy of coming abundance energizes the air. In rain or shine, there is a new warmth, inviting the lips to smile. The greenness of the grass is soon to be echoed by the trees, while the flowers promise their rainbow garland to our Earth.

    I use a flashlight to explain the seasons to my students as well. This is something that while some people will understand from a written explanation, the majority of people will need something visual to really fully grasp it. So I explain it verbally and then demonstrate the concept with a flashlight and I suddenly hear one student after another say "oh, now I get it." It's great.

    The axis does actually wiggle around a little in two different ways it just takes along time to do it, The axis varies from an approx. minimum tilt of 21.5 deg. to 24.5 deg. over a 41,000 year period. The second is axial precession the movement of the rotational axis of an astronomical body, whereby the axis slowly traces out a cone, Earth goes through one complete precessional cycle in a period of approx. 26,000 years or 1deg. every 72 years, ATM the north star is Polaris, The north star has changed over the past 11,000 years, and in another 11,000 years it will switch back to Vega. The north star changes because of precession and is slightly influenced by the change in the angle of the Earth's tilt.

      Pure bull shit. Even if the earth was not tilted, according to their theory, the rays would still hit the same way. They didn't even consider the rays from the sun fanning out vs the rays being parallel...
      If they claim the earth is a sphere whether it is tilted or not, it will still be a sphere. So seasons are definitely not due to the proposed tilt.

    Another interesting thing about the tilt is that it perfectly explains the "midnight sun" in _Antarctica_, where the sun goes _all the way around the horizon, but doesn't dip below it._ This totally disproves the flat earth model, of course, because how could something go *behind you* if it orbits within the "ice wall" you are standing in? (It would move in a left to right, right to left motion in front of you if you were facing north). The only "explanation" they have that I've seen is to just call all videos of the midnight sun in Antarctica "fake" (like their answer to everything else that they can't explain, such as the many non-NASA pictures of the earth from space). None of them have the confidence to actually go there themselves, like the 30,000+ tourists who go to Antarctica every year. But, I'm sure _they_ are all in on the conspiracy as well....

      Tilt or no tilt, a sphere will still be a sphere and it will receive light rays the same way.

    Yeh but the sun would be further away in summer & the angle of light rays would be same angle at times as in winter. should it not be colder when sun goes down in summer when same angle of light in winter.

      +Edge Bob As stated in the video, the distance the Earth is from the sun does not affect seasons and always remember. the Earth is round and it's axis is on a tilt. Without these properties, the Earth would not has seasons. The sun rises and sets at different locations (North of east/west (summer), south of east/west (winter), and on the equinoxes due east/west). Also the sun is at a different altitude/height in the sky from day to day depending on the Earth's location around the sun. In the winter at solar noon, the sun is lower in the sky than at solar noon in the summer (about 48 degrees lower). Also the duration of sunlight we receive in the summer is greater by 6 hours (in New York, it varies with latitude) so that affects the temperature as well.

      +Brien Schweizer Then why NASA considers Mercury as hotest and further the planets, colder? What stops Earth from not crashing in Sun when its coming closer to Sun? Can u replicate this model and prove the heliocentric model?

      +SpirituallyAwakened Venus is actually the hottest planet in the solar system, not mercury.
      That's literally an example of how distance doesn't determine temperature

    • @SpirituallyAwakened
      @SpirituallyAwakened 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      That proves Sun does not emit heat but friction of atmosphere is responsible for heat otherwise Mount Everset would be hotest place on Earth. And if Earth is a tilted ball with axis then it can't have same equator throughout the year .

      My observation is that the surface of water is flat and level. Contractors use a device called a "water level" that simply operates off that reality. If one simply observes the water around him it is plainly obvious that water always seeks its own level, will not cling to a curved surface in any way, and will not remain even and calm with the mass that supports is is spinning at over 1000 MPH. If 70% of the Earth is covered by water and the surface of water is level then I speculate that 70% of the Earths surface would be flat. I hope you will read my comments to this video and do recommend them to your flat Earth friend

    Also, the sun's energy/rays gets 'watered down' (for lack of a better term) when going through more atmosphere (atmosphere on an angle in winter tilt) as opposed to less atmosphere (perpendicular to the land in summer tilt).

If the earth is a globe spinning in infinite space how do we know what is up and what is down? Is there a space map or compass and grid to show this? 4.5 billion years ago hahahah please don't tell me you believe that.
