Will be resolvable longer
See how the light blends together on right side of hallway faster than left side
Cuz the camera is closer to right side
The angle is more shallow
But the hallway doesnt curve
We know that
Yet we lose the door frames and picture frames
Oh lord
See the building you are closer to becomes less reasolvable than the building further away
Satan never could understand optics
🤗
I'm gonna have to continue this in a bit I gotta get back to work
In the meantime what's the distance that is required for a ship to fully disappear relative to its height
5 ft at about 15000 feet
Which means you lose objects at 5ft tall at about 3 miles
K cya
Why do we never use binoculars or telescopes to spot the object when it gets away
Z what would you say the distance is when we see no further
Like at what distance the object disappears and our eyes reach vanishing point
5 foot tall object will be mostly gone with human eye at around 3 mile
Okay
And it doesn't need to obstructed by anything? Our vision just reaches it limit?
Our vision has a limit yes
Globe model says its earth obstructing
Flat model says its our vision and the way light works
Ok
Cameras work the same as our eyes
They have limits also
The further an object (i.e. boat, building mountain) gets away from the lens, the angular separation will continue to close until the light blurs together and eventually becomes a line or point or edge"
Eventually the points of light all merge and appear as just a line on the horizon
I'm back
One more clarification hun
Yes?
By 0.02 degrees you mean the difference in angle between the top of the object and the surface of the sea, right?
I mean the angle at which the photons are traveling to the eye
