Poor visibility possibly due to haze, smoke in the air and other factors, but no obstruction from inferior mirage was observed - at least in this direction. I tweaked the color and levels to get a better image but some parts look funny. More videos to come.

Flat Earth: Super Speed 4 Hour Time Lapse! (say when its a globe!)

$Two Camera Heights - Supplemental Footage From Observation #13 Shelter Bay Ferry (May 30th, 2021). I decided to keep this time lapse separate because it was in between heights, and a 3-way never works out as good as it sounds. This is about 2.5 hours of footage sped up very fast. This camera is my old, damaged Panasonic V180K which still takes decent but very washed out video. There is some end of observation footage from the 2 meter camera in this video, and some that I saved for the final. My next video will further explain the point of all this and why I chose this particular observation. Im providing some footage with clear, reasonably measurable obstruction (at times) cause by either physical blockage by water, or by refraction - specifically upward refraction, or by some other unknown effect. So I would like to see some comments from globe proponents about where the physical horizon would be if we could see it, and things to that effect. If there is not enough information to make any claims about obstruction from Earth curve, then let me know how I can improve my observations in order to show evidence for a globe - besides getting much higher and looking much farther. Plenty of people are doing and have done that! Details: Camera height: 4 - 5 meters Second camera height (end footage): 2 - 2.5 meters. Target distance: 18.5 km Time of recording: About 1 pm to 4 pm Conditions: Sunny, very warm afternoon. Slight breeze picked up and clouds rolled in towards the end of the observation. About the lines: Vertical blue lines represent an angle of about 0.037 degrees or about 12 meters at that distance. Use this as a scale reference. Yellow line is a rough estimate of my camera level and a reference for mirage movement.$ $Flat? Sure, but is it level? A quick look at a small paver patio with my cell phone camera, able to get low and level with the surface. Using only this short observation, can you determine the true shape of this flat surface? What about refraction?$ $Another 21 Minutes (Of not Superior Mirage) A detailed real time look at an interesting part of a 6 hour observation (12km point #7). This video asks more questions than it answers, but it is just another starting point for a greater discussion about superior/inferior mirages and refraction in general. From this point I will go forward or backward in the observation depending on what I feel the need to show to illustrate the no superior mirage reasoning. This is footage from the same time frame as the hour long raw footage I released earlier here: https://youtu.be/QuMnnwtMods This is mostly from the close camera and ends where the close camera footage begins in the 1 hour video. The beginning of the 1 hour video is from the far camera. Hopefully that makes sense? I wanted to release more footage leading up to the strange mirage event that Travis took an in depth look at here: https://youtu.be/QJJDx74RxKE There are a lot of subtitles in the first half, but the second half is raw footage ready for others analysis.$
