>if the glare gets smaller and smaller, then that is evidence the object is moving further away
no, you retard, it is not. it's just as easily explained by part of the object being blocked, or its brightness being reduced.
congratulations, you're falling back on your old strategy of "when the evidence is consistent with multiple explanations, the one I want to be true must be true".

>I said a plane
why is a drone meaningfully different from a plane?

>Post a screenshot proving this.
the video itself proves it. it's a multitude of screenshots strung together.

>A local sun that's not setting behind globe curvature.
perhaps I wasn't specific enough. what about the video purports to show that?

>notice how the horizon line is suspiciously at the top of the frame? All lenses have curvature, and they will curve more at the top and bottom
nice try. he pans over to the instrument panel and the lines of its housing remain straight and undistorted EVEN AT the top of the frame, showing that there's negligible distortion from the camera.
none so blind as them that will not see.

>Not the height of the distortion layer in front of the far-off hurdle.
aaand by simple geometry, the only part of the "distortion layer" that lies between the far-off object and the viewer is a small region (how small depends on the angle) directly in front of the object.
again, you don't understand basic perspective and are using it as a magic wand to hand-wave away the fact that your evidence doesn't show what you say it does.

Perfect time for us to attack

Since this thread is filled with retards, let me share my middleschool tier math with you

Any number can be defined as a fraction with:
let x be a number
x can be defined as
x = x*n/n
x = x/1
And so on according to basic algebra.

Everyone kill yourselves for ironically shitposting

So I never really paid attention during the short time we learned about imaginary numbers, and now it crops up at uni again.

I don't get why this

<span class="math">z = r * e^{i\phi}[/spoiler]

is the same as

<span class="math">z = r(cos\phi + i sin\phi)[/spoiler]

??
