you DONT have refraction
derp
Distance to the horizon D = sqrt(2 * height of your eyes * Radius of the Earth)
To see where this equation came from go to : http://www-spof.gsfc.nasa.gov/stargaze/Shorizon.htm
wheres it say 'refraction'
exactly
welcome to flat earth
the refraction of light is curved on a spherical earth
nope
let's just ignore him
obvious <:trolled:555217274907262976>
everytime you say refraction youre a flat earther 🙂
probably he will go away
well as far as I am concerned your all wrong as you haven't offered any real counter evidence to this.
only literal appeals to authority
So your link states: "we neglect the refraction of light in the atmosphere, which may increase this value" btw
bye bye glob
Given refraction depends on the temperature gradient, being over ice does not negate refraction. In fact refraction can be extreme in arctic regions where the atmosphere can be much much warmer than the ocean or ice
youre not allowed refraction in a glob model
The earth is round u goy fogs
I'm not sure what your point is?
I joined this to say this ur all dumb asf the earth is round
Idiots
Stupid
Ur bad
Ahhahaha
Earth is round
There's a geometric horizon because the earth is round, and also there is refraction, therefore the actual location is distorted/you get weird optical effects
So u think the earth is round too
Indeed
there are no weird effects, just the horizon being at a distance impossible for a ball
Thats a wide angle lense distortion* fyi
I mean, the horizon is obervably different to the vanishing point, so no actually only impossible if the earth is flat.
i already calculated it for you derp
stop being a dumdum
Says the person ignoring refraction 🤔
