until the object itself disappears

this is a top view anyway

@YouRYou side view

Says top view right there

Cross sectional representation

shows that light from the bottom of the object would always hit my eye

Imagine the lines being 10 miles long

ok

The lines going from observer to bottom of poles will close first

Cuz the viewer is closer

what if the object is equally above and below my eye level

Guys who is a Jake pauler here?

does bottom still disappear first? because angle to the top of the object would be the same

Its about the angle

Wait doesn't the atmosphere act like a curved lense?

Imagine it like a pair of scissors

And it can cause it to bend light

When the angles close in the lens. The light is gone

The light merges together

Eventually becoming a horizon line

Its still there..just unresolvable

Here's a video to go along with what he's saying.

that would happen to every part of the object simultaneously, not the bottom

@YouRYou no because the top of boat or mountain is further away from you

sup

how is it further

it's teh same distance away

Wrong

If im standing next to a building. What is further away the bottom or top?

@YouRYou

the top

K

Now you see

Ding ding ding

but what if you eye level is in the middle of the object, like a boat

Depends on altitude

Then you will still see the bottom

Besides, how would something being further away make it easier to see
