your glob model needs a PHYSICAL horizon

2020-03-08 01:04:45 UTC  

Refraction happens perfectly well regardless of the shape of the earth

2020-03-08 01:04:51 UTC  

which is why ships disappear

2020-03-08 01:05:04 UTC  

according to you the glob model has a physical horizon

2020-03-08 01:05:13 UTC  

this is determined by R

2020-03-08 01:05:19 UTC  

this is NOT observed

2020-03-08 01:05:25 UTC  

ergo no R no ball

2020-03-08 01:05:36 UTC  

No. You dot understand the effect refraction has on the apparent position of the physical horizon...

2020-03-08 01:05:47 UTC  

we do, this is the problem

2020-03-08 01:05:53 UTC  

you dont know what types there are

2020-03-08 01:06:04 UTC  

you dont know you NEED a physical horizon

2020-03-08 01:06:25 UTC  

so, what do ships disappear over???

2020-03-08 01:06:35 UTC  

No, you need me to have one to propagate your narrative...

2020-03-08 01:06:50 UTC  

see, a physical water bulge, yeah?

2020-03-08 01:07:17 UTC  

The apparent position of the horizon. This isn't hard. If the horizon is projected to 7 miles away then a boat which tables more than 7 miles away will be seen to disappear.

2020-03-08 01:07:25 UTC  

*moves

2020-03-08 01:07:43 UTC  

you cannot say apparent position and horizon, thats a tautology

2020-03-08 01:07:44 UTC  

On another day, the horizon may be projected only.to 4 miles

2020-03-08 01:07:58 UTC  

thats a flat earth argument

2020-03-08 01:08:05 UTC  

welcome to flat earth Pit 🙂

2020-03-08 01:08:32 UTC  

Only if you utterly fail to understand the point I'm making

2020-03-08 01:08:56 UTC  

oh i understqand, i think you do not though, but hey ho, not all will comprehend 🙂

2020-03-08 01:09:48 UTC  

You just cant say refraction

2020-03-08 01:10:02 UTC  

Refraction is the cause of all those effects

2020-03-08 01:10:08 UTC  

because you dont know what refraction is

2020-03-08 01:10:19 UTC  

Lol

2020-03-08 01:11:16 UTC  

Literslly says that on your link dude, if you don't believe me...

2020-03-08 01:11:36 UTC  

how much refraction is there in a cold climate vs a hot cliamte

2020-03-08 01:11:40 UTC  

do you know?

2020-03-08 01:12:23 UTC  

Depends on the temperature gradient at the location, the air pressure and the temperature at the location of your observation.

2020-03-08 01:12:46 UTC  

& you just can't say refraction you have to speak about witch refraction your referencing to @Pit Droid

2020-03-08 01:12:47 UTC  

So do you mean over land or sea?

2020-03-08 01:13:33 UTC  

over sea

2020-03-08 01:13:43 UTC

2020-03-08 01:14:07 UTC  

Hey

2020-03-08 01:14:50 UTC  

One type of refraction. Refraction is just a thing. If you are asking what type of 'mirage effect' then I guess superior.

2020-03-08 01:15:53 UTC  

do you know Snells Law?

2020-03-08 01:16:26 UTC  

In both cases over sea you would expect the sea to be a lower temperature than the air. This should extend your sight range in the same way I described above.
