Intuitive Proof #2 If the Universe is Filled With Billions Of Stars, Night Would Not Exist

[i]Intuitive Proofs, Demonstrable Reasons: Why The Earth Is Flat[/i] Pt 2 The above gif illustrates this obvious fact quite well. If the universe is full of billions of galaxies all containing billions of stars, night would not even be possible. The universe should be one big "glare". Saying the universe is finite only makes the problem worse: ever try shinning a flash light in your face? If finite, the universe might as well be a flashlight: tons of light packed into a limited space. Also, judging from my last post, you all seem fine with the idea that stars are "blinking" on. If so, every new star we get just adds to the problem. [quote]Today's Intuitive proof was Brought to you by: http://www.atlanteanconspiracy.com/2015/08/200-proofs-earth-is-not-spinning-ball.html [/quote] [spoiler]The soldiers of truth and reason of the Flat Earth Society have drawn the sword, and ere another generation has been educated and grown to maturity, will have forced the usurpers to abdicate. Like the decayed and crumbling trees of an ancient forest, rent and shattered by wind and storm, the hypothetical philosophies, which have hitherto cumbered the civilized world, are unable to resist the elements of experimental and logical criticism; and sooner or later must succumb to their assaults. The axe is uplifted for a final stroke - it is about to fall upon the primitive sphere of the earth, and the blow will surely “cut the cumberer down!”[/spoiler]

    The many stars you see in the sky are scattered many billions of lightyears apart. It does indeed take a very long time for those light photons to reach us in which they can get distorted or scatted into such a small anount that our eyes cannot see. We live in a 3 dimensional reality where we have depth. If they were on a 2 dimensional plane such as the gif then possibly it may look like that but that is not the case. These stars are nowhere near close to each other so there collective light they emit is not at all that bright to us. I havent even begun to tell you how the earths atmosphere as well as our own light pollution have made many stars disappear from our relative view not to mention its possible that a few have blinked out of existence because the light from those stars is traveling at lightspeed and still takes millions to billions of years to reach us and may not even exist anymore. [b]ALSO[/b] our eyes can only pick up a specific wavelength on the color spectrum, this light has to be very specific AND has to be PROJECTED INTO OUR VERY direction in a decent enough quantity that we can actually see it. the stars are emitting heat as well as light so no all of their energy is used to be glactic lightbulbs. We are also viewing the universe from a long time ago. Since we can only see what small amount of potential light hits us there could be many thousands of stars we dont see yet because its light has not reached us(or yet never will) Take a pen. And tap it on a peice of paper. You are a star that emitted enough light for a planet millions to billions of light years away to see you. The rest of the paper? Those planets cant see you because the light you emmited was not sufficient enough, has become distorted by some other cosmic object, or simply hasnt reached it yet. BUT WAIT THERES MORE! Our planet is constantly rotating so that means that we dont have a 360 degree view of ALL the stars in the sky, not to mention we are shooting through space while orbiting around the sun [b]while our solar system and the galaxy is shooting through the ever expanding universe![/b] [u]I await your reply.[/u]
