Flat Earth Debunked: Time Zones, Stars, the Sun, and Flight Paths EXPOSED

Flat Earth believers often repeat the same list of talking points: more time zones in the south, more constellations visible down there, the analemma is bigger in the southern hemisphere, and flight paths or undersea cables only make sense on a flat map.

But what happens when we actually test those claims?

In this video, we break down and debunk each of those statements with real data — using maps, astronomy software, and actual infrastructure. This isn’t about opinions. It’s about evidence.

✅ Time Zones at 33° North vs. 33° South
Flat Earthers claim there are “more time zones in the south.” But when you count both land and ocean time zones along those latitudes, 33° North crosses 24 zones — compared to only 18 at 33° South.

âś… Countries Like China, Greenland, and Alaska
As you move toward the poles, landmasses like China, Greenland, and Alaska span multiple time zones — and sometimes ignore them completely. That’s geography and politics, not flat Earth trickery.

✅ Nobody Lives South of 55° South
Flat Earthers forget that humans live and build entire societies north of 55°N, but nothing permanent exists south of 55°S — because it's all Antarctica.

âś… Constellation Sizes
Seeing “more stars” in the south doesn’t prove anything. The constellation Draco (north) is over 1000 square degrees. Compare that to Hydrus (south), which is only ~243 square degrees. The stars don’t lie — but Flat Earthers do.

âś… The Analemma
The analemma appears larger in the southern hemisphere because of Earth’s axial tilt and orbital shape — and it’s completely modelable. Can Flat Earthers simulate it on a flat map? No. And they never will.

âś… Flight Paths & Undersea Cables
Flights follow great circles. Cables avoid deep ocean trenches. They’re not laid out for aesthetic flat maps — they’re built for engineering efficiency on a globe.

Test the claim. See for yourself.
