the video is fundamentally wrong because it assumes the the prism is the source of the light.

the earth's atmosphere acts as a prism.
as light from the sun enters the atmosphere, it bounces onto earth from the atmosphere (prism).
the atmosphere is not the source of the light - just the source of the refraction.
right? :)
so sure... triangulate to the source of the refraction... you'll get some distance right around where the atmosphere hangs out :)
waahahahaha lo... good one :)
