does that mean an actornaught's head would explode in space with no gravity?


It actually is a known issue that too much blood goes to the heads of astronauts in space.

Its funny. I post a video and image explaining Perspective and convergence

Chivas agrees



I add how the sun would/should then appear

Then he doesn't agree anymore


You are a remarkable troll. You find a YT vid and post it, and apparently you didn't even watch it.
If you did watch it, you clearly didn't understand it.
Which is it?

I watched the vid and understand it perfectly.

All objects appear smaller the further away they get and eventually "converge" and meet at the vanishing point. Correct?


This image was taken from the YT vid. I just added how the sun should look according to the description. All of a sudden I don't understand

So pray tell how does the sun not appear smaller as it moves out of our range of vision (like you said) towards sunset
You claimed it operates in a different plane. Where is your proof of this?

Key word in the description: "appear".

There is no actual visible vanishing point. We think there is, because we extrapolate the lines we see, but in fact the vanishing point would only be truly visible if the lines had an infinite length. Which they don't.
