I can’t reconcile the distant object problem nor the Coriolis contradiction, and I’ve gone to do the distant landmark experiment for myself

Let me know what you think

I don’t see any way to spin or argue those two points any other way than how I am interpreting them

The boat disappearing into the horizon is one of the first debunks you’ll encounter when properly researching the FE topic

You can bring that boat back into view with optical zoom

At some point you will be limited due to the atmosphere itself but we have instances where you can see well over 150kms…
