>>12683179>Where's your proof to confirm that they're trillions of milesPythagoras's theorem. Stars move very slightly as the earth rotates around the sun. Measuring the distance they move with strong telescopes you can tell how far away they are. Using the same principle as mentioned before, stars that are further away move less than stars closer to us. That plus measuring brightness gives us a relative estimate of how far they are.
>but you said the stars don't moveThe stars don't move enough to be noticeable with the naked eye, especially over 6 months. You need a strong telescope and precise measurments.
>schizoNice projection
>How do you prove that we're spinning around in a vaccum at a thousand mph?Because there is no other alternative that adequately explains all our observations. For instance, how is it that the sun disappears over the horizon while on a flat earth model this is impossible? How how do planets appear to move in circles from our perspective around us?

>Thats called refractionRefraction makes ships appear to float, not sink (like pic related)
