57. All videos of the midnight sun in Antarctica are fakes

“The establishment claims the Midnight Sun IS experienced in Antarctica but they conveniently do not have any uncut videos showing this, nor do they allow independent explorers to travel to Antarctica during the winter solstice to verify or refute these claims. Conversely, there are dozens of uncut videos publicly available showing the Arctic Midnight Sun and it has been verified beyond any shadow of a doubt.”

This is just conspiracy nonsense from Dubay and one of the most important claims of flat earthers.
This is  because on a flat Earth it is absolutely impossible to explain an Antarctic midnight sun.

Videos such as those below will always be dismissed as fake and the creators of those videos denounced as being part of a conspiracy.

However  we don’t need to go as far south as the Arctic to prove the point.  Christchurch in New Zealand is at latitude 43.5 degrees south.  You don’t get 24 hour days, but the days are significantly longer in summer and significantly shorter in Winter.  That IS NOT POSSIBLE on a flat Earth.

Daylight in Christchurch on June 21st 2017 lasted 8 hours 56 minutes
Daylight in Christchurch on December 22nd 2017 lasted 15 hours 25 minutes
That is a difference of 7 hours 31 minutes.

See: https://www.timeanddate.com/sun/new-zealand/christchurch?month=6&year=2017

Maybe the web site detailing the daylight hours is also part of the conspiracy.  OK let’s get some New Zealander testimonials.

Maybe New Zealanders are lying because they are all part of the conspiracy, all 4.6 million of them.
And Australians who also experience longer summer days and shorter winter days, all 24.6 million of them.

Let’s add some more shall we.  All these Antarctic cruise and adventure companies and their customers

And all these guys:

And a UK national newspaper

And this historic figure: Herbert George Pointing (1870-1935)

Etc etc etc

Why not take a trip to New Zealand or better still the Antarctic and check it out yourself?  How about asking people who have been there on trip advisor?

Any flat earther who doesn't follow this up and do their own research exposes themselves as a fantasist who has no interest in truth.

127. Straight reflections of sunlight and moonlight are impossible on a spherical Earth

Image
"The fact that the Sun and Moon’s reflections on water always form a straight line path from the horizon to the observer proves the Earth is not a ball. If Earth’s surface was curved it would be impossible for the reflected light to curve over the ball from horizon to observer." This is a flawed argument because Dubay does not understand how reflections operate Although he doesn't describe it very well, I presume that Dubay is referring to the angle of reflection from a curved surface.  I.e. the curve of the Earth would mean that the angle of reflection off the surface would result in nearly all the light  not reaching the observer's eyes. The fact that, if this was how reflections worked, that the same would be true on a flat Earth seems to have escaped Dubay's notice. This type of reflection is called specular reflection, and takes place with mirror like surfaces.  Generally the surface of the water is not perfectly flat so the reflection of the light

Debunking Eric Dubay's 200 proofs the earth is not a spinning ball

Image
Conspiracy Baloney aims to provide resources to counter to the influence of the crazy anti-science conspiracy theories that are out there. This blog is specifically to debunk Eric Dubay's " 200 proofs the earth is not a spinning ball", that I have found flat earthers often cite. There are quite a few resources out there that comprehensively debunk this book, but I think that one more voice can only help.  I have tried to keep the rebuttals as non technical as possible. Eric Dubay’s proofs are laughably simplistic and demonstrate an almost complete lack of understanding of maths and anything scientific or technical. A list of "proofs" that show Dubay is an idiot He also likes to give historical quotes as proofs.  Typical are quotes from the 1800’s but he even has one from before 1600!.  Not only are these opinions not proof of anything, but the fact that he can’t provide quotes from more up to date sources destroys their credibility. Worse,

9. Engineer W Winckler was published in the Earth Review in 1893 arguing that no engineer took the curvature of the earth into account

Image
“Engineer, W. Winckler was published in the Earth  Review regarding the Earth’s supposed curvature, stating,   “As an engineer of many years standing , I saw that this  absurd allowance is only permitted in school books.  No  engineer would dream of allowing anything of the kind.  I  have projected many miles of railways and many more of  canals and the allowance has not even been thought of  much less allowed for. This allowance for curvature means  this - that it is 8 ” for the first mile of a canal, and increasing  at the ratio by the square of the distance in miles; thus a  small navigable canal for boats, say 30 miles long, will  have, by the above rule an allowance for curvature of 600  feet. Think of that and then please credit engineers as not  being quite such fools. Nothing of the sort is allowed. We  no more think of allowing 600 feet for a line of 30 miles of  railway or canal, than of wasting our time trying to square  the circle ”" This is a historical opinion,
