>>21461914>no curving angles.you're making this stuff up arnt you. some me where any celestial navigation book uses that kind of language.
> HORIZONTAL PLANE and LINE of sighthow far though> thats why i keep asking you. say your LOS is 10 miles. how much curve do you think the globe model says there is?
>>21462004yeah, but you know its not teh case that Polaris disappears due to it being too small to see lol. it disappears because its below the horizon.
the problem for flerfs is that depending on the height of their dome over the north pole, polaris simply would not lower to the horizon over the distance to the equator.
>b..b...but PERSPECTIVEyes, thats included of course. prove otherwise if you disagree. You can use the model at geogebra to model it if you like
