Bare with while I type all this on my phone
rite o
Isnt air temperature refraction really small
irrelevent
@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?
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
you are not doing as I asked you
why?
I'm on .y phone
well you can search the website
theres many
then add the calculations
Right ugh that was painful on a phone
Using this
5.1 km @Logrian
We have context for the measurements
Cata, an yet we observe the horizon at 10 miles
RIP Glob
@Logrian where did you get that fact
Input of 0.5 ft height
Target distance is irrelevant for this demonstration
