Exactly.
NASA tells us the curve equation is 8 inches of drop per mile, squared. So, iirc, a 6 foot person standing at the edge of a large lake should not be able to see the surface of the water any further than 3 miles away. Yet with a basic camera, we can. Basic math with the proper variables in the equation gives us correct answers and proofs, not just beliefs.

Need a t-shirt with 8" per mile ^2 written on it, just to remind everyone of their own beliefs, if they ever decided to prove the "crazy ones" wrong. Alleged stories and photographs and urban legends and myths do not change the reality we experience every day. The only curvature anyone can find outside of one's own imagination, is inside a fish-eye lens.
