I'm sorry...

simple enough, the atmospheric distortion is caused by small particles, far more concentrated near the ground, which is the same reason you can see further when youre up higher, its like layers, only with a smooth transition

if the cause is small particles, then what are these particles doing to cause distortion?

Come on, if you need to ask that, you wouldn't understand the answer anyway.

Hum, excuse me,..but doesn't the fac tthat it's atmospheric distortion mea nanything?

Not to you apparently. Maybe it's just basic English that's hard to grasp for you.

Atmospheric phenomenons happen a bit higher than ground level.

So, if an atmospheric distortion is a distortion that occurs in or due to the atmosphere, then where does the atmosphere start in your mind, since apparently there is no atmosphere at ground level? 10 feet up? 1 mile up?

Like  Isaid, most atmosphereic phenomenons, like aurora borealis, happen higher. With a few exceptions like fog.

Atmosphere Distortion. Lurk More.

Please god explain this theory.
Look, if there is Atmospheric distortion, how come we can see the stars?

When you look through 3 layers of glass, things look distorted or even invisible. When you turn on a light, it's still a bright light.

But the light is twisted and distorted depending on the glass.

The stars should be elongated as they are warped towards the horizon.

And if you have an aswer, please respond to my question in the thread "Norther Star and Southern Cross" because the stars apparent motion do not match a flat earth.

Atmospheric distortion happens at all altitudes and is extremely prevalent near ground level.
