you dont know my beliefs

Because I saw Norfolk Harbor from 40 miles away. Saw numerous sail boats in the bay. All from top to bottom off a bridge just 20' above the water. High enough no waves blocked my vision. The curve should have been 1200 feet. That is a lot of missing curve.

@The Unknown Scout this is not helpful to public discourse. There is truth and fact and then this nonsense

so what nonsense do you believe @Platinum Spark

40 miles has 320 inches of curvature, or 26 feet

I went to NASA and researched for a thousand hours. I saw fakery all over the place.

So you should sill be able to see a bridge or a ship

BS. 1200 feet is correct.

@chad46 that the earth is round

@Steve Angell no it isn’t. You just said .666 feet per mile right

Are you saying the earth is 200,.000 miles across?

You said 40 miles away

Squared. Squared miles times miles.

That’s 26.64 feet

At .666 curve per mile

40 miles has aa lot more drop than 40'

Lol you don’t see square miles dude

You see straight

You are saying the earth is flat just going downhill with out squaring it.

@Platinum Spark lol you dont understand maths

How math works.

I’m saying if you draw a straight line, that straight line has .798 inches of drop off per mile

lol wow

you know what the curve x^2 looks like

This is incredible

Ok, so here’s the thing

That is perfect flatness going down hill a bit.

its 8" per mile^2

When you’re talking about curvature over a 2d surface, you talk about squared

No

so 40x40

No

Incorrect

Draw a circle with a circle compass.

2d.

No, listen to me

@Platinum Spark lol

When you are talking about it on a 2d surface

You square it

If you are talking about sighting a specific object from a specific point

That is a direct line
