we're extremely small

2019-12-20 22:14:29 UTC  

thats why the horizon and stuff like that seems flat

2019-12-20 22:14:37 UTC  

you guys fail to understand how big the earth is

2019-12-20 22:15:04 UTC  

Thats due to the perspective. The sun and moon appear larger at the horizon level.

2019-12-20 22:15:06 UTC  

and even if you're at the top of a mountain, it doesnt prove earth is flat

2019-12-20 22:15:07 UTC  

Optical illusion.

2019-12-20 22:15:13 UTC  

It does.

2019-12-20 22:15:14 UTC  

Earth isnt a perfect sphere

2019-12-20 22:15:45 UTC  

Also I'd rather not state the mountain as I live near it, but it was thousands of feet high. The shadow looks similar to this.

2019-12-20 22:15:52 UTC  

I watched it go over the horizon

2019-12-20 22:15:54 UTC  

and it did not curve

2019-12-20 22:16:00 UTC  

and that was hundreds of miles I could see

2019-12-20 22:16:01 UTC  

@🎃Oakheart🎃 Nonsense. The sun is multiple times further away from you when its at horizon level according to the fe model

2019-12-20 22:16:03 UTC  

360 view

2019-12-20 22:16:15 UTC  

Which mountaijn top?

2019-12-20 22:16:16 UTC  

Yes but empirically we can still observe an effect.

2019-12-20 22:16:28 UTC  

It wasnt that high up but there was still a shadow.

2019-12-20 22:16:36 UTC  

Where was it taken?

2019-12-20 22:16:38 UTC  

I'd post pictures but I have yet to boot them up.

2019-12-20 22:16:44 UTC  

Atop a mountain at sunset.

2019-12-20 22:16:56 UTC  

I know, but which mountain what region

2019-12-20 22:16:56 UTC  

sunrise would be similar

2019-12-20 22:17:02 UTC  

northern hemisphere

2019-12-20 22:17:06 UTC  

as you would state

2019-12-20 22:17:09 UTC  

even tho its all flat

2019-12-20 22:17:14 UTC  

no its not

2019-12-20 22:17:25 UTC  

Oakheart, what made you believe earth is flat first of all?

2019-12-20 22:17:33 UTC  

Can you please tell me on which mountain top the picture was taken?

2019-12-20 22:17:38 UTC  

^

2019-12-20 22:17:50 UTC  

2019-12-20 22:17:55 UTC  

That's irrelevant.

2019-12-20 22:17:59 UTC  

hmmmm

2019-12-20 22:18:02 UTC  

All you need to know is that the shadow didn't curve.

2019-12-20 22:18:07 UTC  

Also

2019-12-20 22:18:13 UTC  

why would a shadow curve

2019-12-20 22:18:14 UTC  

Why wouldnt mountains appear to sway backwards

2019-12-20 22:18:17 UTC  

that is not how light works lmao

2019-12-20 22:18:19 UTC  

Because curvature

2019-12-20 22:18:23 UTC  

Ok so do shadows float then?

2019-12-20 22:18:25 UTC  

@🎃Oakheart🎃 No, I need to know. Enviremont varies

2019-12-20 22:18:31 UTC  

from location to location
