I've been onboard the concave Earth idea for a while.
The flat Earth community has several solid arguements against convex/globe Earth, the space deception is as obvious as it gets once you've seen enough of it. Going from the media/entertainment side all the way to the science, there's red flags all over.
At the same time, a globe works eloquently with a spherical 'Sky'/Heaven, the best example I can think of right now being how with a certain degree of certainty, we can assume the
Celestial sphere works: regardless of the shape of the Earth, the Celestial sphere works in practice (navigation) and is confirmed by
numerous timelapses around the Earth.
And I think that's where most flat Earthers get stuck, The Earth and the Heavens as concentric spheres works too eloquent to dismiss. We can say with some logical consistency that:
The heavens/sky are spherical (the celestial sphere) - timelapses being pretty solid evidence, even for flat Earthers
There is a 1:1 relationship between Earth's surface and the heavens, the surface of the Earth and the 'surface' of the sky run parrallel. -This is essentially saying: Google Earth, Stelarium models like that work, and they do.-
To me it seems evident, despite the crazyness of it all, TPTB have simply inverted our cosmology.
And that's sort of a theme I've come to find all over, things getting inverted and everyone running with it. There's several other absolutely batshit conspiracy theories where the "inversion" of natural order of things is central, and I've come to find there's a deep religious/spirtual component to this, but that's probably beyond the scope of this thread.
Just showing my support for concave Earth, I believe it most closely describes the reality we all experience.
I would love to know more about concepts regarding how 'far out' the ground goes, and if there is an edge between the space of existence and non-existence. Like the firmament, but then below us rather than above, and what that edge might look like. Essentially the same question in science fiction: what if you could reach the edge of the universe (spacetime itself) and touch/move your hand beyond the edge. Fascinating stuff but a lot more intimate realizing that edge is physically
alot closer., whereas heliocentrism throws it out there far in the beyond.
