RE: Was The Moon Landing Fake? Of Course It Was.
This occurs due to the same effect as why train tracks seem to converge upon each other in the distance despite being perfectly parallel. Light rays are essentially (or near enough to to make no difference) parallel but it is the fact that as you look further into the distance, the distance between the rays takes up a lower proportion of the field of view, therefore making them seem to converge.
@bowdens you give the example perfectly. You are looking at those tracks from the tracks looking far away at the tracks, but any distance looking down at the tracks you see parallel. So from 92.96 miles away looking at the rays at a more perpendicular angle you would see the rays more parallel instead of flared out as you see them from the clouds. So since they are more flared out from a more perpendicular angle do you not agree that this is true?
The top of the cloud causes diffusion of the incoming light, thereby creating a new point from where it shines again when it breaks through a few holes and thin points at the bottom of the cloud.
Then you agree that from 92.96 million miles from earth that the rays of the sun won't flare out as they do. So the sun is actually closer to the earth than you know, right?
