How is it an optical illusion

Lol because I've been in a plane.
same
It could be edited I suppose, but it seems likely.
and i aint see no damn curve on da windows
but plz explain how its an optical illusion
They are officially curved its an official thing.
@🎃Oakheart🎃 Wait what? I've been on a plane several times and I've never seen a curve....
same
@🎃Oakheart🎃 why is it when boats disappear from bottom to up when sailing into the horizon is an optical illusion
The clouds always obstructs the horizon
It's a result of heat, and also distance. The ship appears to sink because it gets too far away and pollution etc clouds your view. There's also more waves as well. And from your perspective, it appears to sink as a result of many phenomena.
ohh so its pollution?
Similar to how the sun appears to dip into the ocean.
It's just perspective.
cause we rotate
earth rotates on its axis
while we revolve around the sun
On a flat earth model
You believe all of these things are occurring yet you just can't observe them personally.
Yeah... Nope.
oakheart
when you're in a car going 50 mph, do you feel it?
Please explain how the sun dips under the horizon?
Look at the pictures I sent, it's your personal perspective.
btw
dont send those trash flat earth memes
Also, explain why the horizon is ALWAYS at eye level.
they really turn debates into toxic convos
Whether your on the beach or on a mountain.
@🎃Oakheart🎃 Please answer my question, why does the sun SINK under the horizon
It's perspective, it appears to sink because its moving farther away from you.
Similar to the boats.
no
No, the sun would just become smaller and asmaller
its seems to sink because the earth is round
I've climbed a mountain thousands of feet tall, and observed the mountains shadow at sunset.
