@Citizen Z so ya you're using the wrong angle when you talk about angular resolution
I.e. I can't see individual pixels of my 4k TV, unless I get close, and this has nothing to do with my height above the ground d
Ya he's on there
He's big fuquer
@The Big Gambino change your angle of view
Doesn't change the resolution of my eye retina
Put your face against the wall
See then

Then what
Can we get a few peoples opinions on something. If u are staring out into the ocean looking at the horizon does the water appear to rise up ??
No it appears to be level
Sea level
You’ve never looked out into the ocean at the horizon ?
Yes
@jeremy if you stand at the bottom of a tall bldg, and look up, do the sides appear to come together?
The horizon is always below level
And u didn’t see the water rise up to your eye level
This gets more pronounced with altitude
I’ve got to say i never paid attention. Tbh
How could you tell if the angle to the horizon isn't .5 deg down from level
Oh boy ok
A theodolite can measure angles accurately
Do we all know how perspective works ?
That's why they don't use eyeballing for navigation
Yes
The horizon cannot physically reach eye level on a flat surface, as parallel lines never meet, and eye level is parallel to a flat surface
It can get indistinguishable from eye level as far as we are concerned but not true exact eye level
The floor rises to meet he ceiling and the ceiling lowers to meet the floor due to perspective
I can’t type on the phone I’m out I’ll see u guys tomorrow
Enjoy
So we know due to perspective the floor rises up and the ceiling lowers correct ?
