But how would the cycles predict selenelions?

@Technomatrix With a flat earth in ancient Babylon

Selenelions are supposed to be random I thought, because atmospheric refraction. Yet, they know ahead of time that it will occur off course

yeah right, light curves up

But how would they predict the refraction? There is very little info on it that I could find

I'm back

You can see a fully eclipsed moon and the sun ABOVE YOU in the sky at the same time

You CANNOT cast a custom shadow on the moon, you're on the Earth, if Earth's the cause of the moon's shadow, please go to wherever and whenever that point on the Earth causes the shadow and put up a big balloon

But they know that impossible feat will happen ahead of time, and I'm wondering how

Maybe the things in air curved the light

Idk tho

Just a thought

True, but the selenelion is a predictable phenomenon, despite it being impossible. Refraction doesn't just happen in predictable cycles, does it?

Actually, I think I might see why.
This is in locations where the sun rises, where the atmosphere is thickest

yes it does, fermat's principle

Meanwhile when we grill mick west about this he DELETES POSTS

When we dissect his code he admits he uses a "rule of thumb"

The NASA paper he cites claims infinite refraction

We have peer reviewed scientific evidence using lasers to clearly demonstrate light curves up away from the warm air towards the cooler air above

```"It is obvious that the effect of temperature variation is decisive over the
other atmospheric factors on refraction, to the following proportions: Tempera
ture to humidity to carbon dioxide content to air preEsure = 100 : 6 : 2 : 1 "

Temperature is by far the most refractive cause

Very good video by Doctor John D a Geodeitic Surveyor

7/6R is just a way of approximating refractive circumstances at the horizon. Instead of modeling the light rays, you increase the radius for identical effects.

a 7/6R "rule of thumb" with zero experimental evidence does not prove a globe I am sorry

He's modelling light curve the WRONG WAY

light curves up and away from the surface Earth

It is based on the standard atmosphere linked on his calculator.
It also links the forum post explaining the 7/6R

Good afternoon

Good afternoon, Pebbles.

Tru, light bends up in the concave earth

@The Big Gambino Yes under certain weather conditions the up curving refraction flattens out

This is where Mick West got the 7/6R from originally:

lol

@Technomatrix You used to work with him, didn't you?

Their excuse for ignoring it is that "it is not science" or whatever. Or that YOU have to prove it, not them, and until then, we must assume it is flat

No @Human Sheeple

I never knew him personally

You used to religiously cite his metabunk when you defended 9/11

Tru, but I never was affiliated
