Part 2/10:
At the heart of this claim is a map and animation showing the distribution of daylight across the globe at the specific moment of 11:15 UTC on July 8th. The animation, sourced from Dino Tonelli, depicts most of the world under daylight or twilight, with only small regions in true night. The assertion is that nearly the entire visible surface of Earth—covering regions across Russia, Europe, the Americas, and beyond—is illuminated simultaneously.
Proponents argue that this widespread daylight indicates that Earth cannot be a globe because, on a spherical Earth, only half the planet faces the Sun at any given moment. If so many people are seeing sunlight simultaneously, they say, it implies a different model—perhaps a flat or non-rotating Earth—must be true.
