*i think that's correct*
The curve is the same on both sides
The change of angle is constant
Meaning no distortion like you speak of
Think of water in a glass, the glass is curved. If you look at a straw in the water through the glass the straw is still straight
Or it is larger
right
yeah
Meaning that the glass causes a linear transformation to the image
i'm not a flat earther
Not a nonlinear one like you suggest
i've just never studied this
i was just making a wrong assumption based off of what you said
Physics is hard
It's usually in intuitive
i know
it was just that specific aspect
thanks
ironically enough, that's one of the arguments i used earlier
there isn't one, really
for him
trying to verify your claims right now, seeing as you haven't substantiated it
You’re the one who claimed the glass curves the image, you have the burden of proof
first off, even if you don't look at the arguments that were just presented, observable evidence shows that the glass of a plane doesn't distort the image
just look outside the window
on a plane
it's a bit of a crude argument, but it works
yes, but the burden of proof means that as the presented of an argument, you have to back up your claim with proof
thereby having the "burden of proof"
but the claim was made by somebody here that curvature was witnessed through the window of an aircraft, so there's that FYI
that's true
but you began the argument
or the debate
@CryptoCypher ok so lets say the earth is flat, why would the government want to cover it up
about that particular topic
like whats the reason
thereby burdening you with the necessity of backing up your argument with proof
@Santa Phil well, one reason would be the $50 Milllion dollars a day that NASA gets from tax payers! that's a pretty good reason isn't it? there's plenty more though
