Moon Tilt Illusion Supplement

From The Flat Earth Wiki

The Moon Tilt Illusion Supplement page addresses supplementary arguments related to the Moon Tilt Illusion.

Higher Sun Argument

According to the Round Earth Thoery's Perspective Explanation the illuminated portion of the Moon is tilted upwards by perspective. If this is true then it should not be possible to view the Sun and Moon misaligned at the same time, in the same field. However, it has been reported that both the Moon and Sun have been seen simultaneously, misaligned to each other.

As response it is claimed that since the sunlight is parallel hitting the Earth-Moon system from the side, the Moon sees a higher Sun than the Earth. The Sun will appear from a different position in space, causing the Moon to point to a position above the Sun that we see on Earth.
