Did you use a theodolite
So does the moon change size?
Theodolites are only good up to 600 yards
Short distances
Lol theodolites don't measure distance
U can also just use them EYEBALLS U have and can tell it does change size
The measure angle
Ya that's angle not distance
Up to 600 yards
Wrong
That's another instrument
Ok show me the specs
Waiting
K. Look up any sextant
They dont measure angular size
What is the limit on those, they're used to measure Polaris above the horizon, how?
Of the moon
A sextant measures angles.
Angles
Not size
Omg ...
The diff between to angles top and bottom of an object , is the angular size
How did you measure angular size
Bc i used a scientific instrument
What is the size change?
So you never measured it?
What is the size change?
It's size changes very little, lemme look at my numbers
You said it doesnt change
Now it changes?
Have a good night
Doesn't change as if it's going away from you

Lol he gave up
👌🏻
Epic
I. A single night, the moons angular size did not change any measure able amount
My sextant precision is 1 arcminute
So that's negligible, and eliminates any chance that the moon is close and small
It's certainly not setting due to a large change in distt
