Spanks45 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 28.5 for the low, solid freeze it seems. The zinnia flowers were already brown and the grass looked like we had just had our first dusting of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Great Mansfield shadow......another great shadow image from the top of Mount Everest! At 29028 feet it almost looks like you can see the curvature of the earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 29028 feet it almost looks like you can see the curvature of the earth. It's pretty close. You need a pretty wide field of view (i.e. not an airplane window) so Everest would work. I see a lot of literature cites something close to 35,000 feet for it to be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Mansfield's shadow over the Champlain Valley this morning. This image reminds me of a short-take I saw on some Travel channel show about European destinations ...they were discussing some village/town in ...gosh I think it was the Swiss Alps. They are perpetually in a terrain induced darkness, from about this time of year through the middle of April. Fascinating, what they've done is built a mile long, quarter mile high system of mirrors (I'm probably exaggerating the dimensions but just to make the point...) on the south -facing slopes of the N elevations above the valley floor. Such that mid day in full sunshine at Christmas, people were scurrying about the thoroughfares clad in sun-glasses from rays shining via the N direction - it was amazing really. I wonder if they register any heating that way, too - huh. Not sure. I wonder if the flora benefits for that matter. interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Some of those sunless valleys probably struggle to mix out all winter. There must be some insane radiational cooling there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean, If you look at the Everest shadow picture and compare the horizon on the left and right it does look like there is a curve. Maybe it's just the type of lens but I see it. My brother owns a Lear jet and is a pilot. We have flown at 35,000 feet. Sitting at the right seat in the cockpit you can make out the earth curvature. Like you said you need a wide view as you have in a jet cockpit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
