They go into the distance of our flat earth. All horizons are an apparition and are due to refraction and this is most obvious and demonstrable over water. Why can't you see distant shorelines, boats, or other subjects? They are still there behind the mirage. Please find my tutorial and topical playlists for my thoughts on how to understand what we see when viewing distant objects. Do you accept the world with what you are presented? Trust your senses. Question your sources. Resist consensus. The content of this channel is primarily a presentation of video and still footage taken from either the Chesapeake Bay in Havre de Grace, MD or the Channel Islands off Ventura, CA. The observations and explanations offered in this channel are presented as THE alternative explanation for an object's disappearance over the [alleged] curvature of the earth. The observation of distant objects like buildings, boats, oil platforms, lighthouses or islands disappearing is always, only, and ever will be due to one thing: the aetherband. Optical refraction, distortion, and mirages are the combined result of, the effect of, the conditions of the air, distance, and height (relative to the observer).
