Everest can be seen 200 miles away on a clear day
It's 90 miles from Seattle to Mount Ranier and it absolutely dominates the horizon.
Amateur. In a dark location, on a clear night, I can see the Andromeda Galaxy, 2.3 million light years away.
Smh you say on a dark place but then you say light years. If the whole year is light then how do you expect anyone to see if it has to be dark?
It's a timey-whimey thing.
Oh yeah, well I can see your mom. 2.3 million light years away. Because she's fat.
Fuckin' got them! Nice.
How fat is she?
She's so fat that I'm genuinely concerned for her health.
Shes so fat im concerned for the higgs fields' health
She’s so fat I can see what’s behind her
She's so fat that observers are really mostly seeing what she used to look like.
💖
She's so fat that we're worried her and the sun will form a binary star system.

You can't see my mom, she's dead.
She's 2.3 million light years away. We're seeing her in the past.
Of course she's dead, she's in space...
But since the sun is 93 millions miles away it's further because the number is bigger

To be fair, Sun is a source of light. Moon, on the other hand...
Me who can see Polaris 433 light years away.
V762 Cassiopeiae: am I a joke to you?
I mean I can't pick it out of a starfield or navigate the ocean at night by it. So. Ya.
I guess you couldn't have been an archer in ancient Rome.
I can the universe 40b light-years
Oh yeah? Well I can see colors!

aw look, junior made a meme
Look at the sun for a while and you won't see anything ever anymore.
Where did you learn that? Is that a real thing people are taught?
3 miles is roughly how far you can see to the horizon (before the curvature of the earth blocks your line of sight)
I don't want to check miles, but it's pretty on point with what I remember, which is the horizon being 5km away for a 180cm (~6ft) tall person. (3 miles is close enough to 5km)
Getting even a few meters of something under you would drastically change how far you see.
