It is true, like a lot of folk on here you subcontract your thinking out to youtube videos. Dogma runs through you. Show me where in Pythagorean theory you're espousing is the variable of atmospheric refraction accounted for? It isn't at all even though it directly effects what is seen, all you have is someone assuming the earth is a circle (not even a sphere) and applying maths that everyone learned when they were 13. The whole premise is based on being able to draw straight lines, but you can't cause of refraction. When you see the sun setting it has actually already set, it's an optical illusion.

phart Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Why are we posting videos with the guy out of Big Bang to discuss mathematics, and also why are they slagging off Euler, who's equations were voted the most elegant (along with Maxwell)? We citing films now? look everyone time travel is possible dont believe me watch this. got two separate sources here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to know what the formula for the curvature of the earth is. If it isn't 8 inches times miles squared then tell me what it is. I want to know why we can see buildings that should be below the curvature of the earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We citing films now? No, but the example still stands. Most folk who see that movie will believe that man landed on the moon because of the math problem that they 'solved'. You understand the theory, and you believe it to be true, but it doesn't and couldn't work in practicality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feynmanfor its single uses of the notions of addition, multiplication, exponentiation, and equality, and the single uses of the important constants 0, 1, e, i and π.[36] In 1988, readers of the Mathematical Intelligencer voted it "the Most Beautiful Mathematical Formula Ever".[37] In total, Euler was responsible for three of the top five formulae in that poll.[37]. If you simply re-expressed that formula above so it was i = ? what would be the missing right hand side be? Any math(yeah no S) heads able to help?

Parklife Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 It's amazing to me that someone can question science so much, yet accept every word of a book that was written 1500+ years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
