then add the calculations

2020-03-08 00:54:56 UTC  

Right ugh that was painful on a phone

2020-03-08 00:54:59 UTC  

Using this

2020-03-08 00:55:02 UTC  

5.1 km @Logrian

2020-03-08 00:55:21 UTC  

We have context for the measurements

2020-03-08 00:55:23 UTC  

Cata, an yet we observe the horizon at 10 miles

2020-03-08 00:55:26 UTC  

RIP Glob

2020-03-08 00:55:40 UTC  

@Logrian where did you get that fact

2020-03-08 00:55:44 UTC  

Input of 0.5 ft height

2020-03-08 00:56:03 UTC  

Target distance is irrelevant for this demonstration

Do you know the 5 types of refraction @Pit Droid

I input T, P and dT/dh only goes up to that value on the simulation, where it is following the earth curve

2020-03-08 00:57:12 UTC  

Which gives us this result

2020-03-08 00:57:17 UTC  

@Logrian doesn't it have to do with the height of the object too

2020-03-08 00:57:26 UTC  

Which should be sufficient

2020-03-08 00:57:40 UTC  

an even if we go to 56 ft observer height we dont get ten miles Cata.

2020-03-08 00:57:52 UTC  

@Logrian not observer height

2020-03-08 00:58:07 UTC  

horizon doesnt have a height

2020-03-08 00:58:25 UTC  

How did you measure the distance to the horizon?

2020-03-08 00:59:06 UTC  

by knowing the distance beyond the towers an the observer hight, according to the glob model the MAX horizon is 1.22miles

2020-03-08 00:59:34 UTC  

Refraction shifts the position of the horizon away from the geometric horizon

2020-03-08 00:59:38 UTC  

@Logrian isn't the calculator based on the globe model

2020-03-08 00:59:51 UTC  

no, its basic geometry tangent

2020-03-08 01:00:01 UTC  

with the glob model R

2020-03-08 01:00:07 UTC  

Of a sphere the size of earth

2020-03-08 01:00:15 UTC  

pit, that silly

2020-03-08 01:00:32 UTC  

Pray why?

2020-03-08 01:01:07 UTC  

If someone disproves you. You should try to disprove them not call them silly

@Question For Your Life I'm honestly only aware of Refraction as the concept, not different types
