Dear Visitors,                                                                                                                                    April 21, 2017

Thank you for stopping at FlatEarthLunacy.com

As a scientist with college degree in Astronomy, minor in Physics and Mathematics, I was appalled to find folks telling outright falsities and presenting bad science to bolster suspicion of our known accepted reality - that the Earth is a beautiful blue globe.

This blog clearly shows scientific proofs that debunk everything that flat Earth proponents claim.  Here we also expose the comments those YouTube video channels delete, because they don't want you to see them.

The Earth is not flat.  That claim is a conspiracy theory perpetrated by ignorant people who have ulterior personal motives and agendas.

The Earth is a beautiful blue spheroid globe spinning on an axis 23.5° once each day, and orbiting the Sun every 365.25 days.

Flat Earth conspiracy talking point destroyed - It's not just the Moons Tides anymore - Now Earth's crust movement has been measured


Dear Readers,

Although understanding why the Moon causes tides on the Earth was never an issue for rational people, there is now new information that shows that the Earth's crust also moves do to that same lunar gravitational influence.

It's not just the Moon's Tides anymore...
The newest most sensitive seismic instruments (NSLN-II) at Brookhaven National Laboratory can now measure earth crust movement due to the Moon's gravitational orbital attraction (i.e., the tides) on the Earth.

Here is the FULL ARTICLE for you to read:

The moon is a harsh mistress—gravitational impacts on NSLS-II
October 19, 2017 by Stephanie Kossman   

Night and day, as the moon orbits around earth and the earth around the sun, the gravitational forces of these celestial bodies pull on the earth. This pulling force is what causes the earth's sea levels to rise and fall, a phenomenon we call the "tides." But did you know that land, too, experiences a tide?

Just like sea levels rise and fall, the earth's crust changes shape with the phase of the moon. We can't see or feel these changes as easily as we can observe the ocean tides because the earth's crust is far more rigid and stable than water. Highly precise machines, however, like the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II)—a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science User Facility—can be significantly affected by this tidal force.


"We think about the tides in terms of the water, but there's also a tide in the earth's crust," said Jim Rose, the radio frequency group leader at NSLS-II. "It causes the whole area of land underneath NSLS-II's accelerator to move ever so slightly, and the land will actually move the accelerator with it."


This slight movement of the earth's surface minutely changes the shape of the accelerator ring at NSLS-II every day, and therefore the position of the electron beam within the ring. Since the electron beam is responsible for delivering NSLS-II's ultra-bright x-rays, if it becomes off-centered from the accelerator ring, the quality of NSLS-II's x-rays could be significantly reduced.

"We knew that there would be daily and annual changes to the beam orbit, so when we designed NSLS-II, a frequency feedback system was envisioned and designed to correct the beam's position based on the pull of the moon and the sun," said Rose.


Like all synchrotrons, NSLS-II uses radio waves to accelerate its electron beam. A frequency feedback system, commissioned by Brookhaven physicist Guimei Wang, corrects the position of the electron beam by manipulating the frequency of these radio waves to compensate for the moon's tidal forces. This changes the way the electron beam is accelerated, correcting the orbit of the beam and allowing NSLS-II to run efficiently at all times—regardless of the activity of our closest celestial neighbor.
