58) “The Royal Belgian
Geographical Society in their “Expedition Antarctique Belge,” recorded that
during the most severe part of the Antarctic winter, from 71 degrees South
latitude onwards, the sun sets on May 17th and is not seen above the horizon
again until July 21st! This is completely at odds with the ball-Earth theory,
but easily explained by the flat-Earth model. The Midnight Sun is seen from
high altitudes in extreme Northern latitudes during Arctic summer because the
Sun, at its inner-most cycle, is circling tightly enough around the polar
center that it remains visible above the horizon for someone at such a vantage
point. Likewise, in extreme Southern latitudes during Arctic summer, the Sun
completely disappears from view for over 2 months because there at the Northern
Tropic, at the inner-most arc of its boomerang journey, the Sun is circling the
Northern center too tightly to be seen from the Southern circumference.”
A Belgian
expedition found that the sun sets on May 17th and rises only the 21th of July.
This was at 71 degrees south latitude. Dubay asserts that this is 'completely
at odds' with the sensible theory, without explaining why. You know,
like in the rest of his entire article.
Let's first
establish something. Dubay say it was from 71 degrees south latitude
onwards, but this is not true. The actual expedition got stuck/trapped in
the Bellinghausen Sea, and had to remain there for the entire winter. As a
result, they were stuck at that latitude, having frozen the vessel in ice for
the winter. As this is within the Antarctic circle, it is not at all at odds
with the sensible theory. Indeed, the Antarctic circle is defined as the
latitude closest to the equator for which the sun can stay up for longer than
24 hours (or, indeed, down).
Their assertions depend, as usual, on not showing that anything is actually true.
In particular, it is noteworthy that they don't define the Horizon on
their flat earth model.
What these Belgian explorers observed, was a
polar night! And it's not at odds, it's completely in sync with the ball-earth
model.
