Perspective, it's one of the first flat Earth arguments. There are multiple videos where people have demonstrated the optical illusion on a flat table and a local light.
Explain what We are looking at in your own words
The sun was too far away to see, as it travelled closer it left the convergent point and appears to rise above the horizon.
If you lower a light onto a table you will still see it no matter the perspective. If you lower it under the table, however...
Ok, cool. How far exactly can light travel through air?
If near-sight; then far-sight within one (implication) or rise vs fall among others (reason)...choice of perspective.
