The recent failed SpaceX Starship launch flushed out the "Flat Earth" retards in droves, making "FIRMAMENT" trend on Elon Musk's X.com. Is it a psyop targeting fuckwits? Yup. Check this graphic sowing the obvious #'d BOT ACCOUNTS. Each account tweeted random Flat Earth faggotry. INFORMATION WARFARE!

Little do they know that the "firmament" is the asteroid belt (long story).
Explain
word translation: heaven/firmament - the most vague interpretation. The most basic is bracelet. A hoop.
Earth was created in an impact according some and that impact accounts for the the bracelet like hoop of debris from the event - The asteroid belt. Our moon accreted the debris around our planet after the event, Earth is the biggest chunk left over from the impact, the shattered bits formed the asteroid belt - this is a legitimate model that accounts for current solar system according to certain studies...
So the bible describes the truth, as an impact event. That is the moment of the creation of earth - as the bracelet (firmament) is created at the same time, from an impact "God [like force] "hovering" over the waters [of the source planet]"
Heaven (bracelet=asteroid belt) and earth (the chunk left over).
This cosmology maps onto other folk beliefs like Sumerian. Lots of religions talk about battles in heaven or between gods - which maps onto modern understanding so well it forces you to consider it as the explanation.
The problem with this theory is that the Moon is only about 60% the density it should be to make this work. It's roughly 2% the volume of Earth, but 1.2% of its mass. If the Earth/Moon impact theory were true, they would have identical densities, since they'd be made of the same stuff.
Bulk of the moon was foreign object, small planet or moon of something else prior is the thought, not that it is entirely made from the impact, just that it accreted some debris (hence craters).
