I did think he was a kind of wanna be ebot, but he posts nothing of consequence. Then I kind of felt a bit sorry for him - maybe MKultra type shit who knows. But then he continues to fuck up the breads spouting on about being a polymath with detached logic and posting pics of his arguments on Twitter etc etc.

Jon - put your maths skills to good use and calculate the angle of elevation to the moon in this pic.

You could actually help rather than spamming shit that isn't worth anyone paying any attention to.

120m diameter, gives us an easy 60 to the centre point. But that is only the wheel. Height is 135m, I'm not sure if that is including the carriages? There are steps/platform when you go on it. So the wheel is 120m diameter, raised 15m from the ground.

If we can work out the moon compared to just the wheel, we can add the 15m for a ground level related height. My back of a fag packet appoximations in pic form. Then we just need the height of the cam on Hungerford bridge and then the distance, as the crow flies, from the cam to the wheel and we should be away. This should give us, at worst, an approximation of the angle that we need to find.

Also didn't realise you could just rclick googlemaps and measure. Anyway .. looks like it is roughly 409 metres from the top of the steps at hungerford to the centre of the eye.

I did wonder that, but i think, and I am happy to stand corrected, that we can essentially ignore the cantilevered arms and the fact that we are at an angle to the eye. If we just use the centre of the eye as a stand alone point, knowing it is 75m from the ground (60m + 15) and go from there.
