Any one got a answer for this:
If we lived on a globe, then the Earth must curve away from us significantly over distance — especially when observed from a high point like the
Glass House Mountains in Queensland.
But when you go there and look for yourself,
you see something very different.
Real-World Setup:
- Location: Mount Ngungun or Mount Beerburrum (~250–280 m elevation)
- Viewpoint: Facing east toward the ocean, or west across the inland
- Visible Horizon: On a clear day, the human eye can see the horizon extending across up to 90–100 km of distance
Globe Earth Curvature: What We’re Told to Expect
Using the standard globe Earth formula:
Curvature = 7.85 cm per km²
At 100 km distance, the expected drop is:
0.0785 × 100² = 785 meters
That means:
- The Earth should drop away by nearly 800 meters over that distance.
- The edges of the horizon (left and right of your center view) should dip noticeably.
- You should see a clear “bowl” shape across your full view.
Now Test It with a 1-Meter Spirit Level
Here’s a simple, visual test anyone can do:
- Stand at the summit of Mount Ngungun or a similar high peak.
- Hold a 1-meter builder’s level perfectly straight (use a tripod or steady hands).
- Look across the top edge of the level and compare it to the horizon line in the distance.
✅ If the Earth were curved:
- The middle of the horizon should appear higher, and the edges should drop away noticeably.
- Over a 90–100 km span, the curve should dip nearly 800 meters.
❌ But what you actually see is:
- The horizon remains flat and level all the way across.
- The top of the spirit level aligns perfectly with the entire horizon — no drop on either side.
- The Earth appears like a flat plane, not a ball.
Water Confirms It Too
Water always finds its level. Oceans, rivers, lakes — all rest perfectly flat from edge to edge.
You’ll never find a body of water that
curves upward or downward to fit a globe — because
it doesn’t.
✅ Conclusion:
- From the Glass House Mountains, you can see 90–100 km of horizon.
- The globe model demands the Earth should curve away by hundreds of meters — yet you see no curve at all.
- A simple builder’s level test proves the horizon is perfectly flat, not curved.
- Water and land confirm: the Earth is level and motionless, just as we observe — and as Scripture declares.
