Curvature of Earth per mile How large is the curvature of Earth, then? As we don't notice it in our everyday lives, it has to be relatively small. Most sources consider 8 inches per mile as the most accurate estimate. That means that for every mile between you and an object, the cu...
Accurately calculate the curvature on the ball Earth. Uses a cosine function, works for all distances in both kilometers and miles. Open source on Github.
If the polar opening is located on the Canadian side of the pole, their line of flight would have been skewed towards the Canadian side of the pole caused by the curvature of the earth into the polar opening. In one chapter of his book, UNSOLVED MYSTERIES OF THE ARCTIC, Vilhjalmur Stefan...
They give their law for this fancied curvature, based on the world being 25,000 miles in circumference at the Equator, as being 8 inches for the first mile, 2 feet 8 inches for the second, 6 feet for the third, and so on, the rule being to square the number of miles between the ...
“I was spell-bound by the video footage captured of the curvature of the Earth, especially after reading about the trials and tribulations of the mission itself,” says Molina Warty, who at the time was the San Francisco-based director of Strategic Initiatives f...
963 miles in radius so we can use the Pythagorean theorem again to calculate the curvature that should exist according to them, which turns out to be 8 inches per mile squared. This means after 2 miles the Earth should curve 32 inches, after 3 miles 72 inches, and after 10 miles (the...
Since the itinerary shows the expedition is going to the Magnetic North Pole which was located at 86.448 N 175.34585 E in 2019, and is now located one-quarter of the way into the polar opening, scientists using a gyroscope aboard the Arktika should be able to detect the curvature into the...
The math says there should be a curve of about 8 inches per mile squared, yet countless photos and experiments with advanced optics and lasers have never shown such a curve. The Navy has never taken into account a curve with their cannon fire. Internal government scientific documents all say...
