When you zoom out looking at a ball you see the ball

Yup

When you zoom out on the ball earth it gets flat

Same with reality

Nope

At high altitude that is what happens

In an experiment with a physical ball it is almost impossible to get close enough for the analogy to hold

But the same happens

@rightthehand Read that

How flat is a 5 mile square cross section of earth?

I don’t read bullahit blogs

Depends how you view it

Really?

Read it man, I can vouch for it

So the physical structure of a 5 mile cross section of earth depending how you look at it will change

????

Yup

Really

Relatively flat anyways

It depends from what viewpoint you are looking at it from

I’m not asking you what it will look like I’m asking you what it will measure

If you take the entire bowl earth and cut out a 5 mile Square what will be the level of flatness of that particular cross-section

How many degrees of bend will it have?

I’ll tell you

.001

That’s flat

Sure, that might be accurate yes.

Flatter then flat actually

A large spherical earth is reasonably flat locally

So you have 5 square mile section of earth that for all observation and measurements is flat

It is very un-flat over larger distances

So you have 5 square mile section of earth that for all observation and measurements is flat

Well not really

Right?

These fractions can confuse you

So .001 degrees is bend you can see with your make eye

The drop is still about 16 feet

On a line 5 miles long?

Yeah you need precise measurements for it
