This post will be reconstructed. I noticed that moving the time-of-day scrub seemed to rotate the universe. This provided evidence that Google Earth operated on a geocentric modal. Others suggested this same effect will happen when the camera follows the earth in orbit at the same speed. This is true to some extent, but only nullifies the evidence if it is the case. For that reason, I'll leave this info here.
Above we see Africa Jan 9th, 5:28pm, 2017.
Africa Jan 10th, 5:28am, 2017.
We see from night to day in Africa the sun seeming rotated to the other side.
Yes, when you rotate the earth, you rotate the whole view. I have no idea why this makes you think that Google Earth is geocentric.
ReplyDeleteYes, I've updated the thread. Apologies for not catching this earlier.
