Can you SEE the horizon through the sight of the theodolite?
then you can measure teh angle
And that's all you need
K where does it say accuracy
For distance
It's not used for distance
it's used for measuring angles
like a sextant
You cant measure an angle that far away
Youre wrong
A theodolite /θiːˈɒdəlaɪt/ is a precision optical instrument for measuring angles between designated visible points in the horizontal and vertical planes.
No you're wrong, if it' sin your view you can measure the visual angle
Dunno why you're saying this
Just like i can measure angular size of the moon or sun
or an object out in the ocean
1 microrad is a typical resolution for the angle
@Hedwig - that stupid old video 😂 lmfao
who SAID it has to always be (EXACTLY) "eye-level" hmmmmmmmmmmmmm??
you mussa been tlkin to the wrong muhfkn flat earthers lmao!..
they dont mean EXACTLY eye-level ,
..as i just said, moments ago
it does not have to be Exactly "eye-level" ..but....just the fact that (when extreme elevation) that it (horizon) RISES UP AS MUCH AS IT DOES to begin with? Annilates a Ball earth (the size they tell us it is)
mkay
.
Lets go up! up up and away ..
lets go further, shall we
Lets go to 317,000 feet, mkay?...
@Hedwig take your Theodolite and pack it....
@✧Mike Flatbird (Mike Blackbird)✧ how do you know where eye level is in that first image? is there any indication the camera is perfectly leveled?
b/c to make that measurement you need a theodolite
and there is none in that image, so try again
"eye-level" is an estimate, or an expression, commonly used
ok so this image isn't usable then
the one you posted
have i not said (explained) that yet, ..im pretty sure i have
--yes it is very usable
not if it's just an estimate
