All my cats are vegan

Wow

Have they died yet

That isnt good

They gonna die

There was that lady who said her dog was vegan

And when they tested it it went straight for the meat

Gottem

I'm not dumb

Are you sure

^

I know cats are carnivores

Then why not give them meat

They don't ethically think it's okay

Give them meat soup

<:megalul:485077677175472148>

God I want KFC gravy

Lol

I just want some KFC chicken

Extra crispy

I don't like bones

This is how angular resolution works physically in the eye.

Cameras work the same way.
The cones of the retina is a zoom in of the eye. If the angular size of the target is not enough to activate more than a single cones/sensor the object is unresolvable.
There are 3 ways to decrease angular separation.
1. Move the two separate targets further or closer together.
2.Increase the distance.
3. Change the angle of view.

First here is a demonstration of how angle of view changes the angular separation of 2 targets. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/379214321907007488/459806914331541504/unknown.png

For example in this image, as the stop sign's angular size shrinks from distance or angle, the image that prjected onto the retina also shrinks. Eventually it will reach such as small size the eye can not physically detect the light. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/379214321907007488/459808085436006410/refraction_cornea.png
A geometric analogy would be closing a pair of scissors. When the scissor tips are closer together than the spacing between the rods and cones of the eye then you get to see the target. The point where the tips cross from too close to normal vision is the angular resolution.

When the angle of view becomes to much it pretty much goes parallel, but you lose sight of the ground before that. It's the same on the globe too but even worse because the angle of view is increasing quicker because of the curving away of the ball surface.

These next images show someone how the angle stays the same but the area that you are actually observing increases. You can see the 5th image how the bottom of a building would disappear.

They are using this stuff for self-driving cars. To automate the driving they have to turn the perspective view into an orthographic top down view.

The soure of that image.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/0/20937803

Even though the title is BS. No one sees further. You ONLY capture more light.

This is how they build telescopes, to capture light.
Large telescope are reflectors. The larger convex lens gets the more distortion. So they made this. It all works the same generally speaking. A telescope will only help so much. It depends on the light collecting ability that is determined by the diameter of the lens. Some of these aren't built yet...

They are making the lens bigger not building 15 mile long telescopes.

Here is a demonstration of angular resultion effects with an eye charts 1D is distance from chart 2D is 2 time the distance etc...

Next we have what is called Spatial Disorientation & Visual Illusions which includes our visible horizon. Sometimes called the offing, this apparent line is where the sky meets the ground and is being perceived as an edge because of perspective due geographical slant and other optical phenomena.

Remember to give citations at least

So much text

So much scrolling

Jesus wept is a good quote

I agree

Lol

Do they know how to do that already and are just looking for a cost cutting thing?

Or do they really think that a couple teams will make the breakthrough? $1 mill is nothing compared to the budgets of some experiments

Probably a bit of both

Often offering up a bit of money can help kick start the development of what they need

NASA’s budget is fairly limited so if they can avoid footing the bill for what seems to be a brand new chemical process, I can’t say I blame them

Lol puppy

Its a scam

K man whatever you say

U believe and defend all government propaganda

Even if it doesn’t get used to go to mars, a vast number of technologies nasa helped develop end up being used in places on earth that we would never expect

Not my fault u r gullible

If you do a bit of googling around you’ll find a gigantic list of technologies that they helped develop
