Refraction isn't measured and quantified as an atmospheric value, so it is fundamentally ad hoc as of now.
Perspective is merely the angles at which something recedes from you, it doesn't explain anything here.
Angular resolution doesn't obstruct anything, and can be eliminated by higher resolution cameras which could easily resolve the bottom half of ships

do u wanna see a sunrise and sunset on flat earth

2019-04-24 14:59:28 UTC  

they cant measure it so it doesnt exist

2019-04-24 14:59:41 UTC  

thats how science works that is why they will never acknowledge the rice experiment

2019-04-24 15:00:12 UTC  

i told u cameras

2019-04-24 15:00:27 UTC  

It is merely ad hoc, nobody can explain it as a refraction effect if they don't have the values to determine what we would expect to see

2019-04-24 15:00:43 UTC  

This applies to the globe too

2019-04-24 15:01:06 UTC  

this reg said that the sun is small and very low to the earth

2019-04-24 15:01:16 UTC  

so it seems like there is a sunset?

2019-04-24 15:01:18 UTC  

what

2019-04-24 15:01:20 UTC  

so because we cant measure it we dont factor it in

2019-04-24 15:02:01 UTC  

Yes, because you can't factor something in until has been measurably quantified.

2019-04-24 15:02:20 UTC  

also if it is small and low howcome we cant see the sun

2019-04-24 15:02:25 UTC  

sounds like good science

2019-04-24 15:02:38 UTC  

when its night for us

2019-04-24 15:02:38 UTC  

lol

2019-04-24 15:03:19 UTC  

I tend to avoid sky related phenomena when talking about the shape of the earth, like the sun, they are two different things

2019-04-24 15:03:51 UTC  

But as a matter of curiosity, how could a sunset work on a flat earth?

2019-04-24 15:04:04 UTC  

the sun is becuase of perspective and becuase the globe model has people thinking u can see forever

2019-04-24 15:04:04 UTC  

yeah but the things we see now about the sun can work on a flat earth

2019-04-24 15:04:08 UTC  

Other than the sun going under the earth

2019-04-24 15:04:15 UTC  

let me find the sunset video

2019-04-24 15:04:24 UTC  

no doesnt wor like that hang on

2019-04-24 15:04:54 UTC  

would u agree that when u look out into the distance u are looking through atmosphere which has water in it and water magnifies things ?

2019-04-24 15:05:23 UTC  

i think we can all agree on that no ?

2019-04-24 15:05:25 UTC  

no

2019-04-24 15:05:50 UTC  

we are looking through atmosphere ?

2019-04-24 15:06:01 UTC  

which part do u disagree with on that

2019-04-24 15:06:16 UTC  

what do u mean by magnify things

2019-04-24 15:06:32 UTC  

water magnifyiong things is the only part u disagree with ?

2019-04-24 15:06:42 UTC  

i just want to understand

2019-04-24 15:06:54 UTC  

have u ever seen a fire started with water

2019-04-24 15:07:07 UTC  

I would need evidence that the atmosphere magnifies the celestial objects in any way and by how much

2019-04-24 15:07:30 UTC  

also how is that a factor to sunsets

2019-04-24 15:07:38 UTC  

it factors in

2019-04-24 15:07:50 UTC  

Probably that Rob Skiba video

2019-04-24 15:07:57 UTC  

i would show u how it works but u dont think water magnifys things or waters int he atmosphere idk

2019-04-24 15:08:03 UTC  

ok you seen it

2019-04-24 15:08:13 UTC  

so waht u arent buyin it?

2019-04-24 15:08:20 UTC  

which part though

2019-04-24 15:09:05 UTC  

Uses a fresnel lens placed between the observer and something. No evidence given that the atmosphere behaves like that all.
