In July, 1987, I sailed from Hawaii to California aboard the US Navy helicopter carrier USS Belleau Wood (LHA-3). From the flag bridge, about 120 feet above sea level, I could see the masts of the two destroyers leading the convoy, about 100 miles ahead. Using the large binoculars, I could clearly see the cables (no more than a couple inches across) securing the masts, and all of the small scale structure of the masts, everything on the order of a few inches in size. The upper portions of the masts stuck right out of the water, with no sign of the ships under them, at all. There was no hint of any mirage effect, and under the circumstances, well out to sea, one would not have expected it anyway. So I have done the round-Earth verification observation myself. But the flatties will never Surrender. BTW, your faithful dog should get co-star credit!
@kevinfisher13458 ай бұрын
I highly doubt those destroyers were 100 miles ahead. I know from experience on the destroyer I served on we could not see Hawaiian islands from 100nm away. Now the signal bridge was not 120 feet above, but we still could not see it from that vantage point. At 120 feet of elevation and 100 miles distance, those ships would have had to been almost 1 mile tall in order to see them. And that is not even including refraction. Sorry but no. This varies, but typically US fleets travel just beyond the horizon distance from each other. So more like 15 - 25 miles apart. At 120 feet observer point and 25 miles apart sounds better as depending upon height of those particular destroyers, but the bottom ~90 feet would have been obscured and so would likely only have seen the top of the superstructures.

Ah, no. The math just doesn't support your text. If you were 120 feet above the water, the easy math is to multiply your 120 feet by 1.5 giving you 180. Then take the square root of that and you get 13.4 miles you can see unobstructed. To see 100 miles away, you would have to be about 6,700 feet up. Take the 6,700 times 1.5 getting 10,050. The square root of that is 100.25 miles. Why do you think the Air Force flies their U-2 airplanes 70,000 feet up? For the fun of it? No. Take 70,000 X 1.5 getting 105,000, and the square root of that is 324 miles. They can film about 324 miles away without flying directly over their target. Hope this helps.

Looking out from the shore, the ocean and the sky recede for...ever - hundreds and hundreds of miles until they (the sea and sky) disappear into atmospheric haze. There is no clear horizon line _ever_ on a flat Earth. Strange that on a globe Earth, the crisp horizon line on a clear day is the edge of the "spherical sector". Once again, what we observe matches a globe. Flat Earthers ignore what they see, and somehow see things that don't exist.

I for one have crossed both the Pacific & Indian Oceans aboard recreational sailing vessels under my command. I know the earths surface is irrefutably & provably a level topographical plane. I know this as I've personally conducted various line of sight observations to test the accuracy of the earths alleged 6371km radius claim. You obvious haven't conducted this type of observation, if you had, you wouldn't be here parroting you're indoctrinated spinning ball belief. You state you've "seen a multitude of sunrises, sunsets, moonrises and moonsets at sea" Firstly, the absurdity of the heliocentric model doesn't have the moon or sun rising, setting or doing anything, that is you allegedly rolling over towards the appearing sun or rolling over backwards from a disappearing sun on your imaginary spinning space ball. ...Makes me laugh each time I say it. Secondly, the sun or moon moving into or out of our personal azimuthal grid of vision is in no way evidence for a spinning spheroid. If you've been sailing, and therefore navigating, in the 70's then you'd be aware of how celestial navigation and magnetic declination work. As you maybe aware, obtaining your position at sea using celestial bodies and a sextant has you measuring angles from a level or flat base line, one cannot measure an angle off a curved surface, that is not possible. The celestial bodies that move above us have remained in a precise 15 deg p/hr sidereal rotation above us for all recorded history. This is a measurable and observational fact that wouldn't be possible for a spheroid moving in at least 3 different vectors as it allegedly blasts through the ever expanding universe at incomprehensible speeds. As far as mag dec is concerned, if you're ever sailing south of Tasmania in the vicinity of Latitude: 72° 10' 54.5" S Longitude: 140° 9' 48.9" E, be aware that the magnetic compass variation for this position is +179 55' Which is a absolute joke.

The bend in lake Michigan in the upper left is likely Ludington. As the crow flies it's about 120 miles, taken from probably 30,000 feet, so that's certainly attainable in a photo. I have flown that route from Chicago to New York a number of times and recognized it instantly. His marker on the map is east of where he actually was. It's not much, under 20 miles, so there's not that much difference. His map is basically south of Grand Rapids, and not east. If you look at Googlemaps you'll see that the bend on 131 north of I-94 is pretty sharp but on this it's almost straight on his image, which shows that you're looking slightly NNW instead of north as the map he shows. The fact remains it's well under the 200 miles he gives. Even if you go north, towards Frankfort, it's still well under the over 200 miles he states. I'm not sure if he's just guessing, or making the numbers up, but he's wrong, very wrong. His map and measurements would show the Leelenau Peninsula if it was what was shown, and you'd see Grand Traverse Bay, which would very present. but it's not present at all. If the end of his line lined up with Lake Michigan would be Frankfort, which is also a bend. But Frankfort is relatively close to Grand Traverse Bay which would certainly show up at that angle north but it's not there, so I'm sure it's Ludington. At that angle Grand Traverse Bay would be visible NNE of the bend on the Lake Michigan shore.

Flat Earthers don't understand how observations translate into models. You can point to what you said, or point to how stars circle a point in the northern hemispehere and a different point in the southern hemisphere, and keep a blank stare, because they don't understand how one thing relates to the other thing. I'm pretty sure most genuine flat earthers have some sort of condition. For example, in the past, we tought some children were just dumb, but they had dislexia or discalculia. I think Flat Earthers can have something similar. That would explain why they fight every single model they don't understand while providing none of their own. They literally don't know what people are talking about when they refer to a spherical earth, because they can't picture that, so they think everyone is mad or deceived. It's rather sad.

"Thanks Dave. Photogrammectric stereo photography from high altitudes requires earth curviture correction. Maps wouldn't work without it." Hmm I think you will find its actually to do with the perspective principle point, as you get distortion at every point except that. "As mentioned earlier, all photography contains distortions. Unfortunately, these distortions, which are caused by the camera lens, the topography of the imaged surface (the Earth s surface) and the single-point instantaneous collection nature of photographs, mean that aerial photos cannot be used directly as maps. Attempts to derive distances, areas or angular relationships directly from photography will result in serious errors. Photogrammetric analysis attempts to account for these distortions to allow distances, areas and angles to be derived accurately and precisely. Most of the distortion present in photography is the result of the perspective viewpoint from which the photograph was taken. This perspective is essential, however, for stereo-viewing and is necessary for calculating elevation from photography. The perspective distortion in a vertical aerial photograph increases away from the centre of the photograph. This is because the centre of the photo (correctly called the principal point) is the only truly vertical part of the image.Figure 9-1, Figure 9-2 and Figure 9-3 illustrate this.

Place that marble down on the soccer ball and roll it away from you so it eventually will be partially covered by the bigger ball. You cannot see the lower hidden part of that marble without moving up or change your view in any way. You can zoom in on it but it will still be partially covered by the soccer ball.

Correct me if I’m mistaken but flat earthers claim the horizon always rises to eye level. Doesn’t the experiment at 14:11 disprove this, in fact, looking at the 8ft image it appears that the camera is angled slightly downward. Is this another case of a FE experiment to answer one observation actually destroying a different FE claim.

No lol the visible horizon does rise with the viewer. Camera is level but it's irrelevant to demonstrate what Dave couldn't debunk. On a globe you'd have to tilt your camera as you increase elevation in order to keep lined up with your horizon. You don't have to do that in real life though. As demonstrated with any drone or way high up with the redbull jump. There can be a slight drop, due to hazy conditions and the perspective between the gap of the camera and ground, but nowhere even near the expected globe drop... AND it still rises with you altogether.

@RuosongGao - 😅 go ahead and look at a large ball in front of you... now raise your elevation. Why did you have to tilt your head to keep it in view?

I found it funny that they basically said that you don't see the bottom of the plane disappearing when you're looking up in the sky at it is because it hasn't gone over the horizon yet. This was basically their claim without actually saying it. And also, the last point, flerfs proving the globe once again, always nice to see.

Hang on... dont flerfs not believe in atmospheric gradient because of the dome? Yet they base their refraction ideas on a gradient caused by gravity.

I love that your video goes into levels of detail like this, and I hate that not even "if we look at these obvious fucking features of every mirages and other optical effects, your flat earth argument collapses completely" is enough to reach these guys
@pieterboelen28628 ай бұрын
I have seen a mirage at sea in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Superrefraction of the atmosphere allowed us to see a container ship *beyond* the horizon and it was vertically stretched to make it FAR more visible than it was once it got closer to us. Such a weird sight! And definitely NOT the same as ships' ordinary way of dropping beyond the horizon.

So many videos merely manage to impatiently contradict flat earth logic, without showing how a globe provides the only logical explanation. But this video is meticulous and decisive, and deserves to be in a KZbin Hall of Fame.

One thought struck me when I was sitting down by the beach eating fish and chips a few weeks back.... If the earth was flat would you not always see a gap between clouds and sea out on the horizon?
@tjjones6218 ай бұрын
Exactly. No matter how much you zoom, that gap would be there. This is why there is a curvature formula for calculating distance to the horizon, but no such formula for doing that on a flat plane. Fe'rs think geometry means Gee, I'm a tree.

Please dont hold it on me if i dont do a good job but, anywhere on a ball, to make a stright line from one point to another you will have a higher point in between so thats how the horizon raises in a globe.
