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

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

Which gives us this result

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

Which should be sufficient

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

@Logrian not observer height

horizon doesnt have a height

How did you measure the distance to the horizon?

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

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

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

no, its basic geometry tangent

with the glob model R

Of a sphere the size of earth

pit, that silly
