Thanks, I was just curious.But how many miles can our eyes see,even in an airplane,and you'd be up more level to the horizon in the air to see the sunrise. Just my thoughts.
I believe it is 3 to 7 miles and further in a clean atmosphere. And naturally much further in miles with binoculars and a telescope.
We just moved from Virginia Beach to Daytona Beach, and we still see a flat Atlantic Ocean. We still don't see ships that are sailing/motoring down a curved ocean. The haze makes them disappear from view. Telescopes and lasers are great for viewing long distances across the flat oceans.
