You trust engineering, yes?
happens a lot
yes
And engineering uses gravity, yes?
@Trixxle you were going to work out the geometric horizon using your maths an draw it in yellow, remember?
we should get some geodesist for questioning 😄
what I'm still trying to figure out is why some globers spend so much time here every day
curious
i dont think engineers care about bending of spacetime man
why do they care so very much
Morbid fascination
lol
right
you guys ever tried breathwork?
I don't understand why youre trying to make me do
<:confused:625494374402228244>
Engineers, evidently, do use gravity quite a lot, depending on the specific application. Certain nuances of it also rely quite heavily on aspects of relativistic motion as well, so I guess the answer is 'yes'.
Trix, earlier you said that was the refracted horizon, well which is it, because you said from you maths the horizon from one foot is 6 miles and that past ten miles, im confused?
That mountain image is a bit fishy with the numbers
If you put the obs and target heights into the curve calculator you get results similar to the image. With/Without refraction
I have taken picture of what I mean from my screen but cant post them
post now
Sorry they're not screenshots
There we go. Been a long day
how is this simulation similar to the image? the horizon should appear after the structure not vanish before
I don't follow?
@Pit Droid the red and yellow structure is platform habitat correct? the image taken for black swan shows platform habitat appearing before the horizon but in your simulation, the structure appear to vanish after the horizon
Ahh no this is the mountain image not the rigs
oh right, then thats a different matter
And the refractors horizon is the horizon we see
That's what I was referring to
draw the Geometric Horizon then
I can't, I don't know enough about the image
