mainstream i guess

globe

idk honestly

woah

yus

it perfectly shows earths rotation

here let me show you

wait let me add more

what...?

oh wait

ya you would see that if you were directly on the equator

yep

no...

if you are on the north pole you see https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/484515890759729182/501558757700927500/polaris-star-trails-lg-e1465912817358.png
if you are in-between the north pole and equator you see https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/484515890759729182/501560689421451274/maxresdefault-3.png
live on the equator you see https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/484515890759729182/501566348070092831/Screenshot_20180709-132548_YouTube-1.jpg

yes lol

that camera has a warping effect around the edges

but you can see clearly not the whole thing is warped

you demonstrated *straight lines* then the warping

*straight lines arent warped*

no it doesnt

wait

hold on

let me look closer

nope

have you heard of perspective?

the closer you are to an object the bigger it looks

on a sphere it also means you see less of the sphere

her i have an example

again

perspective

you are so close to earth you dont see a curved horizon

im trying to find it

ill use my phone

no it isnt

Close and far away

The nba look like it takes up say 25% of the surface of the basket ball until you back away from it

now imagine this affect over a 1000 times more apparent

i cropped the far away picture so that you can see the ball clearly, but either way you could still see more of the ball

my point still stands

yes

for what reason?

soldz?

huh

thrust

wanna check out <#484515890759729182> ?

cropping only removes an outer rim of pixels making the image appear larger, it does not change the picture in any way shape or form

i mean torpedo's are usually used for a reason

you dont launch an ICBM underwater, but at the surface

Citizen Z said it was because of cropping

the rocket turns on outside of the water tho

its ejected from the water

i was

to demonstrate perspective on a sphere

*i wont spoil*

what

so from where kitty was

to being at water level

oh shoot

i thought kevin was going to then come back and demonstrate newton's 3rd law XD

i thought he was ge xd

why would you do that?

it does

it doesnt require a medium

its a universal law

nope

how does a rocket work kevin?

thats about a 7-15 foot difference in height

you expect to see a major result like that?

hi lemon

yep

what

uh
