If the earth is a globe, how is it possible that a photograph of the Alps in its splendor can be taken from the Pyrenees?

WTF? Coward, You are not seriously suggesting haze does not exist are you?
Haze is the result of visual compression of the atmosphere we live and breathe. The air we breathe is like soup, It is dense, that is how things fly, by compressing it to make it even denser. It is choc full of crud and crap, the further the optical target the more of the crud and crap you are looking through . . . Haze.
What a troll, hahaha!
Next time you are up in your airplane try looking through an infra red system, you can see for 800 miles, then optical resolution of the eyeball becomes significant and things are just too small to see at such distances.That is why you cannot see "forever".

Haze exists, but its not some mythical force that prevents you from seeing the rest of the planet. If you can see stars on the horizon then that means you can see as far as they are. So there's no "haze" stopping you from seeing them.

Which means YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE ANYTHING CLOSER TO YOU THAN A STAR. So, if the earth were flat, then ALL MOUNTAIN RANGES closer than the stars on the horizon should be visible from elevation. This is NOT the case, so the earth can't be flat.

Why can't we see the sun all the time if we should be able to see all of flat earth from an elevation? Flat lives matter huh op?

>"So there's no 'haze' stopping your from seeing them."

Actually, there is.

Which makes your NEXT paragraph incoherent babbling.

;)

Another two things, if the sun were circling above us, it would change size as it got closer and farther away throughout the day. We don't observe this.

Also, any point of light elevated above a plane will be observable on a flat plane from ALL UNOBSCURED POINTS on the plane, so neither the sun nor the moon could ever set on a flat earth. We do not observe this either.

That and the fact that you can't see the rest of the world from an airplane means the earth cannot be flat.

So you've never seen the sun, moon or stars before. Gotcha. That ladies and gentlemen is how you checkmate a flat earther. Good night!

The Globetard answer is always "Grabbity" and "Refraction!"

No not AT ALL Mabel.

I am NOT afraid.

I am NOT afraid to actually LOOK at those PRIMA FACIA photographs that DESTROY those little FAIRY TALES...

Playing in your head.

There are PLENTY of things that OBSCURE vision in the PHOTOGRAPH you are AFRAID to look at it.

It is mostly referred to as a HAZE.

With this little thing some people call TECHNOLOGY...

Which in this case comes in the form of infraRed filters you can attach to your favorite camera.

And if you get shots from favorably placed mountains...

You CAN SEE 200 miles.

If you are in a typical commercial flight 28k-32k you can see up 1200+ miles given that you can RECOGNIZE the distant landmarks.

There is a spot in Washington State, on I-90, I can SEE the COASTAL mountains from 200 miles away...

I would explain it to you...

But I promised my grandmother I wouldn't TORMENT the special needs kids...

When you are GIFTED...

Pretty much everyone is a special needs kid.

:)

Yup. Notice the lack of globe earth shills on this thread. They are backed into a corner and have no escape...

You have an ASTOUNDING non-comprehension of...

PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING.

Your eyes are limited perception sensory organs.

Even with AUGMENTED vision, such a provided by optical devices, you run into the limits of the physical reality.

You can NOT see INFINITE distances.

Have you EVER even been on a commercial flight.

You can see MUCH farther than is typically recognized, but THERE ARE LIMITS.

Both the Sun and the Moon ALSO have PHYSICAL limits to their LUMINOSITY.

You can NOT see light from the Sun, the Moon, the 'stars' an INFINITE distance.

For example, your headlights are NOT visible but AT MOST a few hundred yards...

NOT an INFINITE distance.

Ipso facto, you can NOT see the ENTIRE Earth if you had a tall enough step ladder.

So... you are TOTALLY out of the running on UNDERSTANDING ANYTHING about the PLANE(t) you call home.

Rockets don’t work in space threads are also deleted.


Just like planes, rockets need atmosphere to work

That's not correct. As far as we can tell there is NO LIMIT to human vision so long as the point source is bright enough. Your headlights are only visible short distances because they're not very bright, but even then, you can see very far so long as the emitter has certain properties.

Remember, to debunk this info, its not enough to claim its "fake". You have to provide same or better sources that explain how "our vision is limited". You are deliberately responding to good arguments with NONSENSE which is again proof you know you're lying.

You can see an infinite distance as long as the light source is bright enough.

Nope. NOT true.

You DO understand that a link is just an internet addressing scheme to what is ultimately a text file parked on a server somewhere.

This one is pure bullshill.

The only thing that is INFINITE...

It's human STUPIDITY.

Which you have SO kindly just demonstrated and proven.

There are DE FACTO limits to luminosity.

There are DE FACTO limits to vision.

This is an INTELLIGENCE test.

If you THINK you can see ANYTHING... an INFINITE distance... because it's INFINITELY bright...

You NEED to stay at the shallow end of the pool.

Anybody that is Dwm6 enough to believe that a Sun-like celestial object can emit enough light to travel SEVERAL LIGHT YEARS...

How many miles is a light year?

OMG, you people are SO PROGRAMMED.

Considering the absolute threshold, the brightness of a candle flame, and the way a glowing object dims according to the square of the distance away from it, vision scientists conclude that one could make out the faint glimmer of a candle flame up to 30 miles away.

I just posted a thread about this this morning that was deleted. I wonder why? Maybe it’s because the moderators here are helping to cover up one of the greatest deceptions in modern history: ball earth.

Anyway, the Alps are over 275 miles from the Pyrenees. Based on the curvature calculation for Earth, the Alps should be completely obscured by the curvature, yet they are visible.
