And what causes the sun to look like it's setting when you're looking towards the ocean (which should be perfectly level)?
Perspective works in whatever direction you look, I think your thinking it is only in some static direction.

Hey, have you guys seen any FE explanations yet for why you can see different stars from Australia vs Canada? I know the question has come up before, but I don't know if the FE community has tried tackling that one yet.
Its pretty hard to understand - but basically hmm
you know how people think if the Earth was flat - they should be able to see the sun all the time but once you understand how perspective works - you might be able to understand it a bit and its the same way with the Stars - that your not seeing half the universe - but a smaller dome like field of view according to your perspective and that your view the stars thought the round dome that circles the Earth.
Its you wanna see what the real stars look like up close, you should search for Nikon p900 camera with is 2000mm zoom lense.
I'll link this video if you wanna watch it, but its something you need to do a lot of research on to understand.
