Im no scientist

hello fellow people

I can yes

@Bartek hi Robby 👋 ...

hello m8

wanna go out for a pint down tghe road

??

nah im good thx

@Citizen Z Omg that video. Look at that woman’s hair. It is clearly glued stiff as a board. That does not represent zero gravity at all. Fucking fake. We need a gif of that.

@Bartek - What brings you aboard

what is the ice wall

yh

what is it

the Coastline of Antarctica

is what it is

ice walls aka ice shelves

imagine i come from austrialia

and everyone there is literally so dumb

nah

Wait hold up

yes we believe "Australia" exists

That artist rendering on the ice wall

Has a curved earth

Im uhh

Befuddled here

It’s an artist rendering, yes.

Would said artist be implying that the earth has some level of curvature, even if it may not be spherical?

The edge of earth may in fact be curved round, though we can’t really see it ourselves from where we are.

you mean the live feed that stops every 45 mins for 2 hours

ya we laugh at it

its cgi

we dont care

Fake

Thats a good point tbh, stuff like this isnt too hard to whip up in 3ds max

cgi is not reality

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.
