Show me that you measured three miles
Then I'll show you why
Angular resolution of the eye is .02 degrees
At that resolution objects become unresolvable
They are still there
Just not resolvable
The horizon becomes a line or edge
Yes it does
No
You dont understand
The angle to the bottom of the boat is more shallow
Read
Yes it is
I'm talking resolution
The bottom of the boat is closer to you
Just as the bottom of a building or mountain is closer to you
The top is on a steeper angle
So the top is resolvable longer than the bottom
Miles
But it can be shown in tests up close
Take your phone and put it directly in front of your face
Then tilt the phone away from you
The face will dissapear when you hit the shallow angle
Or look at a picture on the wall
Then put your face against the wall.and look down the wall
You wont see the picture anymore
The angle you are looking at is to shallow
See how the camera is closer to the right wall
@Citizen Z Wow the walls on that coridoor are sooooo curved
CURVATURE in the WALLS
You can see more of the left wall
Cuz the angle is steeper
Optical slant and angular resolution. Why distant objects distort and disappear from the bottom.
