google it
what is its shape
If it is "unresolved", then it is below the angular resolution?
google what, why google. i can lookup apollo moon landing footage with google
google it to see if u can see tycho with the naked eye
everyone can
this is common knowledge how are u debating it
astral go google it
You can’t see Tycho, the crater - *as a crater* - with the naked eye, so the question has a false assumption. Rather you see the very large array of bright rays. The crater itself isn’t visible without optical aid. If you think you see it, you’re mistaking the central area of the rays for resolving the crater itself. At 88km across, and about 384K km distance, Tycho crater itself is less than 1 minute of visual angle across (i.e., less than 1/60th of one degree across).
there ya go, google says you're wrong
If it is "unresolved" tho...
Then it still works technically, angular resolution 0.02 degrees, crater about 0.013 degrees
ya it'd be close
that's enough to depend on teh person too
For example, we can see stars, but they are a blur. Angular resolution doesn't just stop vision of course.
"Unresolved"
Lol ok
@jeremy from that same source : f you stare squarely at it, you'll see a tiny, unresolved bright spot about a quarter of the way in from the southern limb.
"unresovled"
because it's below our eye's resolution
ive seen it myself nothing to think about
what did you see
a bright spot?
go look at the moon
i am
well idk
u can see a spot ont he moon thats 86 km in diameter
u cant see a spot on earth from the moon thats 86 km in diameter
on earth
its just one more suspicious thing
It is right near the line of resolvable and unresolved for the human eye, and it is unresolved based on what you said, so it seems it isn't a problem.
well its not a problem if u cant see it but u can
of course it doesnt fit the globe model so now they are saying u cant see something u can see lol idk
they always have a wild excuse
i gotta run goodnight guys see u tomorrow
he has a weird trigger for "suspicious"
But is about 0.013 degrees, so near the angular resolution of the eye, which is 0.02 degrees, and it is unresolved, so it appears to make sense. It being slightly below the angular resolution doesn't make it invisible,
good point
are you in STEM?
you sound like it
