The Mark still?

2020-02-05 21:32:21 UTC  

euros and cents

2020-02-05 21:32:37 UTC  

doesnt matter continue with your point

2020-02-05 21:33:00 UTC  

A 1 euro coin, is larger than a 1 cent coin correct?

2020-02-05 21:33:32 UTC  

I just want to be sure, as an american, you would think the "cent" is the smallest coin we have, but alas, it's n ot.

2020-02-05 21:33:34 UTC  

*not

2020-02-05 21:33:44 UTC  

yes i got dime quarter comparison up so go on

2020-02-05 21:33:50 UTC  

Excellent.

2020-02-05 21:33:59 UTC  

If you put the largest, infront of the smallest,

2020-02-05 21:34:04 UTC  

Would you be able to see the smallest?

2020-02-05 21:34:31 UTC  

Say we did it on a 6 foot desk, and you are flat and level.

2020-02-05 21:34:48 UTC  

You have the 1 euro coin in front, with the 1 cent coin behind it, further along the table.

2020-02-05 21:34:55 UTC  

Can you see both coins? Or only 1?

2020-02-05 21:35:16 UTC  

depends how close you are to the dime

2020-02-05 21:35:35 UTC  

...

2020-02-05 21:35:40 UTC  

6 foot desk.

2020-02-05 21:35:46 UTC  

You are eye level, with it's base.

2020-02-05 21:35:50 UTC  

With a 1 euro coin in front

2020-02-05 21:36:02 UTC  

and a 1 euro cent behind the 1 euro coin.

2020-02-05 21:36:11 UTC  

Can you, or can you not see the smaller coin behind the larger one?

2020-02-05 21:36:29 UTC  

oh ok then no

2020-02-05 21:36:39 UTC  

Well, if the earth was truly flat,

2020-02-05 21:36:50 UTC  

Than that observation would be factual.

2020-02-05 21:37:04 UTC  

If the water of earth, was truly flat,

2020-02-05 21:37:16 UTC  

smaller objects, would never be seen behind, or above, larger objects.

2020-02-05 21:37:21 UTC  

i think that kinda observation would match in all 3 models

2020-02-05 21:37:36 UTC  

and it does

2020-02-05 21:37:46 UTC  

in the one thats real too

2020-02-05 21:37:58 UTC  

So,

2020-02-05 21:38:03 UTC  

Instead of a 6 foot desk

2020-02-05 21:38:06 UTC  

What about 20?

2020-02-05 21:38:46 UTC  

Say you are flat and at eye level with the desk, but now it's 20 feet long. Can you see the small coin now? Even with the larger coin still obstructing your view?

2020-02-05 21:39:01 UTC  

wym yeah a smal obect will usualy be hidden behind the bigger object

2020-02-05 21:39:10 UTC  

so whats the oint

2020-02-05 21:39:12 UTC  

point

2020-02-05 21:39:33 UTC  

My point, is that you have to understand the observation, before you make it.

2020-02-05 21:39:46 UTC  

sure

2020-02-05 21:39:57 UTC  

So, let's take this desk

2020-02-05 21:40:00 UTC  

And make it 10 miles.

2020-02-05 21:40:20 UTC  

You couldn't see the small coin at 6 feet, nor at 20,

2020-02-05 21:40:23 UTC  

At 10 miles....
