you two take your chit chat to LIOUNGE thanks
Sorry we thought this was dms

I just forgot my password
NOT IN HERE
thanks

Refraction is refraction. The path of the light is bent in the atmosphere allowing you to see around a curve
show me the maths that have 7 miles of refraction from 5 inches, thanks
Or, depending on the temperature gradient, the opposite happens and you get the affect you see on a hot road
theres many types of refraction, not just one btw
Do enlighten me
well I was asking for you maths
that show from 5 inches theres a 7 miles of refraction
btw refracted horizon is a flat earth claim 😉
Good for you 👍
Bare with while I type all this on my phone
rite o
Isnt air temperature refraction really small
@Logrian what do you mean that we don't have a physical horizon
what do ships disappear over?
Curvature
which is a physical horizon, correct?
Water is physical
So yes
I still don't know what you mean by "physical horizon"
so we can calculate the distance to this physical bulge of curve, correct?
Explain to me what a physical horizon is
you just told me
Water
Just to be on the same page
or land
the bulge of a curve blocks your view yes?
Ok
so we can now calculate at which point this accurs yes?
It's somewhere between you and the boat on the water
so given the height of the observer and the distance to the physical bulge curve what is this distance, search for a horizon calculator an tell me the results, or screenshot an post, thanks
I think it has to do more with perspective
You still there typing@Pit Droid
