Here are some questions you can ask yourself. Where is the plane of the eye? What is the relative angle between the surface of target and the plane of the eye? Given that angle , what is the angular separation of the points of light on that target.
Ive never been off north america. I don't know whats out there
okay viewing a mountain from far away it blends with the sky right?
Depends on that days weather conditions, the position of the sun, etc
.
at that time in the video u can still see the mast of the ship, its not blended, it sunk slong the curvature of the earth
So you didn't watch the optics video?
Nothing about blending
Its about optics
Blending is the visibility of the day
Optics im talking about is how light and the eye work
In conjunction
Imagine extending that 60 miles
The angle will become so shallow that the eye or lens will lose its ability to resolve objects in the cone
is this entire thing about earth being flat
yeah
ok
same

this guy thinks that you cant perceive things as round if you are far away
it litterally shows the object dipping below the horizon in the gif
No
yes
It shows angular resolution
What does this mean?
its dipping below the horizon because when you look at it from far away it dips along the curvature of the earth
Says who?
says everybody except flat earthers
Its not dipping below any curve
yes it is
Ive just shown you
How light works
Your problem if you refuse to learn
We will have to agree to disagree
okay new topic how do tides work
