2019-05-01 00:50:12 UTC

As I always say you really don't need to go into so much detail with this stuff

2019-05-01 00:50:18 UTC

Just one argument and that's all

2019-05-01 00:50:49 UTC

@7 Hells thats perspective

2019-05-01 00:51:02 UTC

@7 Hells optical slant. (Angular resolution)

2019-05-01 00:51:11 UTC

Optics!

2019-05-01 00:51:29 UTC

.02 degrees is the angular resolution of the eye

2019-05-01 00:51:30 UTC

He used a camera

2019-05-01 00:51:42 UTC

Cameras work the same. Derp

2019-05-01 00:51:50 UTC

The are a lens!

2019-05-01 00:51:55 UTC

they have the same resolution of the eye

2019-05-01 00:51:58 UTC

who told you that

2019-05-01 00:51:59 UTC

They have angular resolution

2019-05-01 00:52:09 UTC

Citizens right

2019-05-01 00:52:18 UTC

yes, but its improved, its not the same as the eye

2019-05-01 00:52:44 UTC

Once the angular resolution hits a certain degree, the object(s) become unresolvable

2019-05-01 00:52:58 UTC

Its optics

2019-05-01 00:53:14 UTC

Read James Gibson. 1952.

2019-05-01 00:55:02 UTC

But thats not what happened in the video. He raised a balloon up til he could see it across the lake with his naked eye. Then when he zoomed in with the camera, it was still just above the horizon with his camera zooming in all the way too it. I think he said it was 10 miles away, and it was attached to at least 25 feet of string, which wasnt seen by the camera or his eye.

2019-05-01 00:55:07 UTC

And theres more

2019-05-01 00:55:12 UTC

A rising balloon will work the same..you just see further as you rise in elevation due to the angular resolution

2019-05-01 00:56:07 UTC

Imagine looking at your tv from center view. Then imagine putting your head against the wall and trying to watch it

2019-05-01 00:56:39 UTC

He did it again with a longer string, and that one had flags attached. He let it go really high, then measured how much of the string was missing, first with binculars, then again with the pictures from his camera, with different zoom obviously

2019-05-01 00:56:43 UTC

Why can you see more of the right wall than the left?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/484514023698726912/572949492379156481/images1-1.jpg

2019-05-01 00:57:20 UTC

You are further from the right wall..closer to the left wall. Yet you see less of the left wall

2019-05-01 00:57:27 UTC

hmm

2019-05-01 00:57:41 UTC

And again

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/484514023698726912/572949735623622656/dormHallway-2.png

2019-05-01 00:57:44 UTC

how can 3 different views of the object, with different zoom capabilities, give you the exact same effect, if the effect was supposedly due to the angular resolution of the device or eye?

2019-05-01 00:58:08 UTC

The closer you are to the ground, the less you see

2019-05-01 00:58:23 UTC

Especially over miles

2019-05-01 00:58:42 UTC

In the pictures youre posting, you see less of the wall on one side than the other, but with the right zoom, you can see the entire wall on both sides

2019-05-01 00:58:49 UTC

Eventually the light is unresolvable

2019-05-01 00:58:56 UTC

If on a shallow angle

2019-05-01 00:59:12 UTC

there were no angles in the balloon thing tho

2019-05-01 00:59:14 UTC

A steep angle (rising elevation) you will see further

2019-05-01 00:59:20 UTC

they were both on the shore

2019-05-01 00:59:46 UTC

Explain what you mean once more plz.

2019-05-01 01:01:56 UTC

There was one guy on one side of the shore, with a balloon and a long string. The other guy on the other side of the laske couldnt seek the first guy or his balloon. Then the first guy slowly raised his balloon, until the guy on the other side could see it. Then he zoomed in, took pictures. Even with the zoomed in picture, it was just over the horizon as it was with his naked eye, but from the perspective of the guy holding the balloon, it was at least 20 feet high.

2019-05-01 01:03:23 UTC

Angular resolution

2019-05-01 01:04:00 UTC

Did they measure the distance vs observer and target height using 8 inch per mile squared?

2019-05-01 01:04:42 UTC

they measured the distances and heights, but I dont remember them. It was somthing from school. Let me see if I can find it

2019-05-01 01:11:26 UTC

If you woke up this morning, you winning ๐Ÿฅ‡

2019-05-01 01:15:14 UTC

Did it match to the globe model?

2019-05-01 01:16:04 UTC

You can find multiple similar tests where it doesnt match the globe math

2019-05-01 01:16:29 UTC

So you should scrutinize the info you are looking at and do the math yourself

2019-05-01 01:17:02 UTC

If it matches the globe math, then great. Why do so many tests not?

2019-05-01 01:17:14 UTC

Like Dr. John D's observations

2019-05-01 01:17:46 UTC

Is the test you are looking at verifiable? Could it be faked? Probably

2019-05-01 01:17:58 UTC

But do the math yourself first

2019-05-01 01:18:30 UTC

What about the Chigaco Skyline observations?
Flat? Mirage?

2019-05-01 01:20:43 UTC

Flat

2019-05-01 01:20:50 UTC

Mirages are upside down

2019-05-01 01:28:05 UTC

the earth is a velociraptor

2019-05-01 01:28:38 UTC

prove me wrong

2019-05-01 01:28:50 UTC

Bad move

2019-05-01 01:29:30 UTC

Look i respect your guys opinion but i just wanna state mine as well

2019-05-01 01:31:00 UTC

You know not to troll @Sceet

2019-05-01 01:31:31 UTC

Im not trolling im trying to state my opinion

2019-05-01 01:31:49 UTC

!mute @Sceet Trolling

Don't trust him soldz he's a bad guy

2019-05-01 01:32:01 UTC

I remember them

2019-05-01 01:32:02 UTC

Welp never mind

2019-05-01 01:32:06 UTC

From somewhere

2019-05-01 01:32:16 UTC

The profile pic is familiar

2019-05-01 01:32:22 UTC

Mr science what is your fav field

2019-05-01 01:32:34 UTC

I think it was back in my flat earth society days

2019-05-01 01:32:48 UTC

The server

2019-05-01 01:32:52 UTC

ohh I really don't know

2019-05-01 01:33:03 UTC

._.

2019-05-01 01:33:14 UTC

thats potassium

2019-05-01 01:33:21 UTC

that one sucked

2019-05-01 01:33:27 UTC

Oooif

2019-05-01 01:33:38 UTC

but what can i say

2019-05-01 01:33:51 UTC

all the best chemistry jokes argon

2019-05-01 01:35:51 UTC

you know im usually not like this, I only make chemistry jokes periodically

2019-05-01 01:36:36 UTC

Man rip the VC

2019-05-01 01:36:45 UTC

lol

2019-05-01 01:38:00 UTC

i suppose it is true

2019-05-01 01:38:15 UTC

my chemistry puns rarely get a reaction

2019-05-01 01:38:47 UTC

๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

2019-05-01 01:40:35 UTC

Cat man do doe be my hoe

2019-05-01 01:40:50 UTC

Ohno

2019-05-01 01:41:02 UTC

did you just see my puns?

2019-05-01 01:41:07 UTC

No

2019-05-01 01:41:19 UTC

I know they are quite Au Ti S Ti C

2019-05-01 01:42:00 UTC

Omynogod

2019-05-01 01:42:50 UTC

heh

2019-05-01 01:42:56 UTC

Periodic table joke, is it?

2019-05-01 01:43:02 UTC

Na

2019-05-01 01:43:06 UTC

pft

2019-05-01 01:43:11 UTC

that one was good
