Alright
Anyone wanna give reasons on flat earth or round earth d
I crunched some maths and decided that both was fairly likely
So I'm back to square one again
From a more fundamental point of view
Yeah that's fine
Both theories explains this effect
It does not prove either
so why does it bend back up
?
A circular earth exhibits the same effect if light travels in a straight line
So
We have two propositions
Light travels straight => Round Earth
Light sags => Flat Earth
So now we have to prove that light sags and does not travel straight over a large distance
My data small
I cannot see the image
That says the surface of the water bends down
light bends up
That contradicts the first gif
Which seemed to have suggested that light bends down then up
an the other image explains that
That's a Sheeple gif! Been a while since I saw that.
🙂
Please explain I don't understand it
Refraction causes light to bend upwards
This is what I need explaining
Wait
Bend upwards as in
The claim is boats *appear* to disappear over the horizon, because of up curving refraction.
Wait wait wait wait wait
