oh dear

Speaking of that, I should watch through his videos, was gonna do that awhile back
He had this dispute with Mick West, made numerous vids on it
Thats legit part of fe
Ffs
Dont even get me started on refraction jesus christ
Pi
Oi
how can they disprove refraction
what is there explanation for it o-0
Well ive learned pretty much everything about it
Not disprove, just point out that isn't currently valid based on how it is a reification, like the 7/6R rule of thumb. Note that it isn't the same as snell's law, supposedly, 'isotopic media' is an invalid description for the atmosphere so there is a concept of "atmospheric refraction"
Anyways, the explanation given is that the local surface is flat if you are talking about the laser test
Well yea... Snells law says that through each medium entered by a light wave there is a angle of refraction based on the medium index of refraction x sin(θ{i,r}) and the sin of the angle of the incident ray when entered
well they say that when u watch boats go over the curve that is exactly what it is boats going over the curve. they say its impossible for it to be perspective or refraction or angular resolution. whenever we see a city skyline at the horizon that we shouldnt be able to see becuase its too far its an illusion but the boats is not an illusion thats really whats happenning.
all the mountains and cities u can see too far that appear perfectly displayed for u at the horizon thats an illusion and not real the boats going over the curve is real
supposedly
Most of it they use high res and high powered zoom and magnification which is able to see many times farther than the human eye
but they do say the boats going over the curve at thte horiszon is proof of the globe but when we see too far and look at a city skyline that shouldnt be there its an illusion and not real
that is what globe people say
no ?
Without using any type of zoom?
However a city skyline is a very large object as compared to a boat which is much smaller and so it much easier to visualize the curve with
Perspective doesn't obstruct objects. That is my problem with it.
Just nonsense as far as I'm concerned
so the boats at the horizon is real but the city that should be under the curve we can see is an illusion i know
It is much easier to see things happen with smaller objects and not large ones because there might be curve but its harder to notice but with a smaller object its much easier to see
lol
smaller object is easier too see ok
doesnt sound right but ok
Its easier to visualize a more miniscule detail on a smaller object vs a large one like a skyline
If its not right may you please prove me wrong
just doesnt sound right its easier to see more detail on a smaller object vs a large one
idk a lot doesnt make sense to me when it comes to the globe
Something so miniscule as that. Becauee its smaller its easier to see how much of it is slowly going over the curve... Vs a large object where it may be difficult to account for the exact height in our brains
A small object such as a boat can show itself going over the curve much easier than a skyline can
but u agree that the boat at the horizon going over the curve is real and the skyline or mountain thats too far and we shouldnt see at all is an illusion and not real
To respond to the second part that is partially true yes
