You don't nkow what the specs mean
you're looking at one with an add on
i'm talking about regular theodolites that dont' measure distance, only angles
Because theodolites only measure up to max 600 meters
in disatnce ya, but not in angle
Show me specs that prove otherwise
From the manufacturer
sure i'll show you a regualr theodolite taht measure angle
Angle
Show the specs
one taht doesn't even have a distance measuring add on
Show me the data
From the manufacturer
Enough debate
Prove it.
A theodolite doesn't measure distance anyway
and it doesn't only work for objects within a certain distance
if you can see the object you can measure teh angle between it and somethign else
How did the mayans measure teh angle between teh sun and moon? are those closer than 600m?
^nothing about distance limitation
^accuracy stated in terms of angle, not distance
No
He's talking about theodolites that have laser range feastures
Which is an add on
Even lasers curve up in air
So the longer the distance, the more the deviation of actual horizon and refracted horizon
so how was it detected at the same height as teh source, over 40km? wouldn't the earth hae to be curving up for that to happen?
te DOME
What defines the "actual horizon" on a flat earth?
No, your belief in light always travelling in a straight line and ignoring lapse rate, ignoring snell's law, ignoring the fact cold air has a higher refractive index than warm air is why your model is wrong.
@Human Sheeple yes
@Human Sheeple so using a laser to measure for flatness is flawed
I agree, but flat earth ignores that too
b/c the laser itself is not a flat reference
I like that
