That diagram also doesn't show how something would disappear bottom up
Only uniformly
Your ship theory makes no sense. Get a telescope and you can see the ship again buddy, this isnβt proof of flat earth, itβs eyesight
Good effort though
..
At some point the ship should go ovet the geometric horizon
I must have misunderstood his point
I thought he was saying ships get farther away as they go and it looks like they disappeared
My bad my bad
Ah, I guess what you were trying to say is that on FE you should be ab;e to use more and more powerful telescopes to resolve the ship again?
Assuming you watched it dissappear once bottom up using whatever
Problem is Phuket's entiar argument is based on atmospheric refraciton. Which is expected to bend light the opposite way over water to over land as it is dependent on the temperature gradient.
His 'band of convergence' is just the mirage from the ground being hot
Im not an optical expert myself
So no comment
Im sure someone more experienced can answer ur questions
Fair enough
I will say to take Phuket's stuff with a pinch of salt though, as from what i've seen he seems a bit of an idiot
Me neither im not really following with FE content as i should
Cant keep up with all my learning goals. There is so much to learn in everything
I suggest looking into optics stuff, it's interesting.
Sure
Im more intrested in economics and health than in physics
Also fair
Have you studied physics at all, out of interest?
Yes
I studied it quite in depth until my senior year. Our school had a strong physics program
However i dont major in anything that has to do with it now
I did study optics but i just cant recall all details
Yeah fair. You still studying then?
Im in uni
Awesome π
π
Anyways i gtg
Nice talking to u ill definitely look into the optics of ship disappearing sometime soon
No worries, take care π Nice - let me know what you think of it
Can someone explain how flat earth formed without using religion as an answer (I'm an atheist, so I don't believe in gods)
tough one
