The Iowa Class battle ship's 16" guns could range targets 42,000+/- yards away (24 miles+/-) that is well beyond the horizon. ~ If the Radar transmitter is located 90 feet above sea level. ~ And the Target is 24 miles away. Using a Earth Curve Calculator, ~ The Distance to the horizon is 11.617208 miles. ~ The bulge of the earth should hide the target by 102.2530 feet. Radar waves travel in straight lines. How could radar work if the radar waves cannot hit the target, because of the earth's bulge is obstructing a clear path to the target. Radar and Microwave transmitters emit radiation waves that travel in straight lines and cannot work on a globe earth. Isn't that interesting? http://dizzib.github.io/earth/curve-calc/index.html?d0=24&h0=90&unit=imperial ~ https://uploads-cdn.omnicalculator.com/images/earth-curvature.svg

How can radar range targets beyond the earth's curvature? Radar waves travel in straight lines, if there was real earth curvature, radar couldn't range targets at all!

@Rob ~ Radar on the Iowa is about 160' above sea level +/-. For the ball earth theory to work light, micro waves, radar waves have to bend to work, but the ocean is flat. The sunset over the ocean is proof the ocean is flat. A person standing on a beach viewing a sunset sees the light reflected across the ocean from the horizon all the way to their eyes, this is optical proof the ocean is flat! -- If the earth was a ball and the ocean's surface curved, the light would reflect off the physical geometric horizon on the spherical earth, but this is not what we see. We see the light reflecting off the ocean the same way it would reflect off a flat mirror or a calm and peaceful lake. The water surface is not curved it's flat!

@isaachousley325 ~ Microwave transmitters, transmit and receive for hundreds miles through unobstructed airways and micro waves only travel in straight lines, they would work on a ball earth!

@jimharris9394 ~ The ancient Greeks and the Babylonians knew the earth was the center of the cosmos and things, the stars rotate counterclockwise around Polaris, the sun and moon travel east to west. and the earth was stationary. -- The 2,200 year old Greek Antikythera Mechanism is a planetarium and calendar that's based on a earth centered cosmos and things, it predicts the movements of the sun, moon, and planets with-in one degree in a 500 year period and also predicts when solar lunar eclipses will occur. It was built 1700 +/- years before Copernicus. The Antikythera Mechanism is still accurate today and it's precepts agree the the bible account.

@isaachousley325 ~ Winter time air temperatures on Main Beach in Laguna Beach are cool, the water temperature is in the 50's and the wind is typically blows on shore, for this reason the air the temperature and humidity are the same on Main Beach and off shore. -- Light refraction is caused by changes in the air temperature and humidity, so in this case there would be no refraction, because there are no changes! But, the whole island is visible 58 miles away when it should hidden beyond the ALLEGED CURVATURE. The alleged curvature for San Clemente Island is: 58 miles squared = 3364 times .666 feet (or 8”) = 2,240 feet of drop, the island 56 square miles, 21 miles long, it's two to four miles wide, it's maximum elevation 1,965 feet above sea level.

@vhawk1951kl ~ Algebra 1, the X Y coordinate plane is a two-dimensional with no Z coordinate, it's flat, and there's nothing relative about being flat!

And coriolis causes pigs tails coil clockwise north of the equator and counter clockwise south of the equator! And I believe in Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny too!
