    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    the sky is a low dome is not an illusion, it is the fact. because the visible part of the atomosphere is exactly the low dome in reference to the point we are standing.please see the picture in post#13 the sky is a low dome is not an illusion, it is the fact. because the visible part of the...

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    [/PLAIN] on this picture, the moon never steered away from being horizontal to being vertical. so the picture means noting for argument. the moon in the picture acturally kept as basically horizontal.

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    [/PLAIN] how was the picture taken? it means everything. where is the scale for time?? what are the different times for each picture?

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    The moon is so far away, 1.0003 multiply by the distance between the moon and earth, it will make the moon image size substantially bigger.

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    By "altitude" I mean how close to the horizon, don't go by the literal meaning please

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    This was wrong, you pointed out doesn't mean it be the truth. while the moon near the horizon, the atomsphere lenz serves to enlarge the image. while it is above head, the atomosphere lenz changed shape and will decrease the image size.C:\Users\owner\Documents\moon_earth_atomosphere.jpg

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    the atomasphere is symetrical to the center of the earth, but you are on the surface of the earth, it is not spherically symetrical to you. you are too far away from the center of the earth.

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    Same angular size behind different lenz, meaning different image size! This was what the illusion theory ignored.! The so called experiments forgot the fact that there are different lenz between the moon and the observer when the moon is at different altitude. ! Why people don't consider...

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    I still think the illusion theory is wrong. It is aparently the optical lenz effect of the spherical atomsphere acted like a telescope. when the moon is near the horizon, it not only looks big, but you can see much details on its surface like the dark areas and dark spots. If a brain illusion...

    Why the moon looks bigger at the horizon

    I think nobody has said the right thing so far. Even you lie down on the ground to look into the moon that is in the middle of the sky dome, it is also small. the real science behind this phenomina is that the Earth has a transparent atomosphere acting like an optical lens causing...
