Angle measurements in degrees between the horizon and Polaris are the latitude lines (or parallels) north of the equator.

For example, at say 60 degrees north, Polaris is 60 degrees above the horizon. At say 37 degrees north, Polaris is 37 degrees above the horizon.

The latitude lines are equidistant from each other. Each degree is 60 nautical miles, which means the angle measurements could not have been taken from a curved surface.

If we were on a sphere, the latitude lines would get closer together the further south one was towards the equator, and not be equidistant or parallel with each other.

This can only mean we are not on the surface of a sphere, and must be on a flat plane.

That's simply a fact. That's just one fact. It debunks the sphere, therefore the entire heliocentric model has to be false.

Not much I can do about it.

So where's the edge?
