I need to buy a decent lens or telescope.

There is a limit to what the eye can see, it's such a small lens.

I think I might just buy a P1000

I have no incentive to do so currently

It has ridiculous zoom. I already have a camera with a huge resolution, but the problem is that the sensor is full frame, so in order to get any decent zoom you need a HUGE lense, or telescope.

They're not that expensive tbh

Depends if you'll use it often or not.

I wouldn't

It would be once in a blue moon for me if I got one

Because the only matter of interest I would have is observing distant objects in some locations, if say, I travel.
Where I live, there is trees and hills and various obstructions.
Maybe some astrophotography but I'd get bored of it

It would be good for me to find a hobby tho

I took this with my camera. Unfortunately it's not the full resolution, raw photo which I can't get until I fix my computer.

It's the milky way, with Sag A* in the middle, on the left one of the bright objects is Saturn. Not sure which though.

What do u think of this information

It explains what’s happening with the boats going over the curve

Made sense to me

My favorite part was at the end when he plays with the color and contrast and u can still see the boat

Idk how after watching that u can still think the boat went over the curve. Or at least not question if it’s really going over the curve or not

I think it demands more investigation

Did u watch the video ?

Astral

He makes a false dichotomy, it is either curvature or an inferior mirage and if inferior mirage, no curvature whatsoever. And there isn't always inferior mirages going on for this to happen and the person acknowledges that we would continue to see the bottom without that mirage layer.

So, not really that great.
You see the ship dipping below bottom first while there is a mirage layer beneath it.

What about at the end when he plays with the color and contrast and can still see the boat

Seemed pretty great to me when he explained it

It is still there, the atmospheric conditions are just not clear

Yeah it’s still there hidden by the inferior mirage

Didn’t go over a curve

It is too blurry to tell to what degree it is obscured

He adjusted the color and contrast and saw the boat through the curve of earth ?

What?

No, it is right there, lol

The boat was gone u couldn’t see it anymore at the end

He played with the color and contrast and u could see the boat through the inferior mirage

Because of the atmospheric conditions

So u admit the boat didn’t go over the curve

No, otherwise we wouldn't see it

At the end u can’t see it anymore

He adjusts he color and contrast and u can now see the boat

So we can still see it,
