I wouldn't expect a light focused to a laser to able to travel enough of a distance to show anything, you'd need an expensive high powered laser and even then the focus will have limitations. The earth is huge and the curve is more subtle than you think, most flat earth delusions come from using the wrong formula, so they may show you a laser pointer at a spot and say it should be somewhere else, but their math is off.

You don't need a laser or a zoom lens, just find a place where you can see the top half of a skyline across the water and then look up the distance away and the height of a recognizable landmark.

They're lasers that shine for miles and using the metrics of 8" decline per mile which is the scientific consensus the laser is seen at the other side of the lake.

Multiple miles it travels hitting the other side perfectly. Tons of experiments showing this to be true. Either the 8" drop per mile is wrong or its a way bigger than "the science" says.

8" per mile is wrong. That would not chart a curve, obviously. Very clear that you have been duped bc you're bad at math. Try to think back to 6th grade geometry class, if you made it that far, and remember how your teacher had you chart curves on a graph.

You know you're smarter than this, just remember. You've been too gullible and allowed others to make you doubt what you already knew to be true.

Every source says exactly this lol

Try thinking back to when u were in school and had to research something before looking foolish.

"Most sources consider 8 inches per mile as the most accurate estimate. That means that for every mile between you and an object, the curvature will obstruct 8 inches of the object's height."

That's simply not a curve. Are you unable to picture a graph in your mind? Do you need to draw it out? If it moves steadily by 8 inches every one mile than you will chart a straight line. There would have to be a "^2" or something like that in the formula.

Your sources are wrong. My source is elementary geometry.
