FAQ/Coriolis
Coriolis Effect
According to mainstream science, The "Coriolis effect" describes the pattern of deflection taken by objects not firmly connected to the ground as they travel long distances around the Earth.
When an object is moved off its course, we say it has been deflected. The "Coriolis effect" describes how objects that are not connected to the ground seem to get deflected as they travel long distances around Earth.
They claim the "Coriolis effect" is responsible for many large-scale weather patterns. The key to the "Coriolis effect" lies in the planet's rotation from west to east. In the globe theory, Earth rotates faster at the Equator than it does at the poles.
Tossing the ball on a spinning globe
National Geographic explains the supposed Coriolis effect:
These different speeds of rotation are the reason for the "Coriolis effect". Let's pretend you're standing at the Equator and want to throw a ball to your friend in the middle of North America. As you throw the ball, both you and the ball are already moving eastward more quickly than your friend is. So if you try to throw the ball in a straight line, it will land to the right of your friend. Remember, your friend in North America is moving east at a slower speed.
Now let's pretend you're standing at the North Pole. When you throw the ball to your friend, it will again appear to land to the right of him. This time, it's because he's moving faster than you are and has moved ahead of the ball. Everywhere you play this game of global catch, in the Northern Hemisphere the ball will deflect to the right.
Weather Patterns
Certain weather patterns, such as cyclones and trade winds, are due to the "Coriolis effect". A key factor is air pressure, or the averaged weight of air molecules pressing down on Earth. Weather systems can be low-pressure or high-pressure, and air tends to move from high-pressure to low-pressure areas.
Ignore the jet streams, National Geographic says the "Coriolis effect" also helps define regular wind patterns around the globe. As warm air rises near the Equator, for instance, it flows toward the poles. In the Northern Hemisphere, these warm air currents are deflected to the right, or east, as they move northward. Then the currents descend back toward the ground and slowly move from the northeast to the southwest, back toward the Equator. The constantly circulating patterns of these air masses are known as trade winds.
Impact on Human Activity
Due to the requirement to support the globe theory, you will hear that Airplanes and rockets are impacted by the "Coriolis effect". They say the direction of prevailing winds are largely determined by this effect, so pilots must take it into account when charting flight paths over long distances.
However, you should ask yourself, do pilots actually compensate for the wind itself? If the spinning globe caused wind direction, they why would we have days of no wind, and wind in opposite directions?
Mainstream globe proponents also explain that "Coriolis effect" can also change bullet trajectories, stating that military snipers have to consider the effect since even a small deflection could injure innocent people. Although the worlds longest straight shooter says otherwise.
If bullets are affected by the "Coriolis effect", then why don't balloons and helicopters have to compensate for the same effect?
Water draining backwards?
In countries near the Earth’s equator, tourists are often dazzled by a demonstration of a mysterious physical phenomenon. A presenter will position three buckets of water – one in the Northern Hemisphere, one in the Southern Hemisphere, and one directly on the equator – and let the water drain out.
Tourists are shown that, as the water drains, the water in the northern bucket rotates in one direction, the water in the southern bucket rotates in the other direction, and the water at the equator doesn’t rotate at all.
However, "Given the size of the system", physical oceanographers can comfortably conclude that the Coriolis force is not responsible for what the tourists see in those buckets or bowls.
The "Coriolis effect" on drains is a trick because the container of water in the first experiment was almost motionless before the plug was pulled, while the second one was poured in with momentum, which caused the vortex. In reality, variables such as how you pour water in, the shape of the tub, and many other factors will dictate how the water drains, not the hemisphere you are in. [1]
Snipers / Sharpshooters
According to many mainstream sources, the Coriolis effect is a product of the Earth’s rotation and, in the case of firearms, moves the target away from the original point of aim when the bullet finally arrives. Total deviation is determined by time of flight, shot direction (azimuth), how fast the "planet" is moving at both the firing point and target and more. It’s dictated by a lesser-known Coriolis force that, thankfully, includes inertia as a key component. Together they create some simple rules of thumb worth remembering when you push the distance.
The previously obscure precision-marksmanship component didn’t get the respect it deserved until Mark Wahlberg delivered a pair lines of the movie “Shooter.” “There’s 6- to 10-second flight time so you have to shoot at where the target’s going to be,” he said while explaining an assassination plot would require a criminal intimately familiar with the factor. “Even the Coriolis effect, the spin of the Earth, comes into play.”
The term went mainstream overnight and watering-hole experts soon began lengthy lectures on its everyday impact. It’s often incorrectly cited as forcing toilets to flush in one direction in the Northern Hemisphere, for example, and the opposite way in the south. Despite scientific evidence to the contrary—and fully functioning commodes on the equator—the urban myth persists.
If the so called Coriolis effect had any bearing on firearm accuracy, surely it would be present in the Marine's official sniper manual [2], but it seems it's not. Perhaps the Coriolis effect doesn't actually effect the trajectory of bullets.
Balancing the egg
Here’s another classic equator gag. The theory goes that you can balance an egg on a nail on the equator, but not anywhere else. Why? Because science. That’s why.
Unfortunately, this one doesn’t “stand up” to scrutiny (sorry, couldn’t help myself). There’s no reason why balancing an egg at the equator should be any easier or harder than anywhere else. But there’s no doubt it’s hard. Really hard. I remember sinking 20 minutes into that thing.
Conclusion
It's pretty difficult to believe mainstream science when everything that's claimed supporting the globe ends up being later being exposed as fraud. Once exposed, science goes into coverup and invent something else to explain their heliocentric religion.
