Ok but you’d need the distance to the moon in order to do that calculation

A decade or so ago Tao gave an incredible lecture on the cosmic distance ladder, so I’m psyched Grant is giving that content this huge platform!

Shouldn’t you have to know how far away the moon is?

They didn't know at the time—they believed the Earth was at the center of the universe, following Ptolemy's model 😊.

Is this why Pythagoras’ theorem came about? A desire to measure the cosmos? Interesting 🤔

wouldn't you have to know at least one arm of the triangle though?

ancient Greeks knew this? I just learned about Greek models and we learned that the idea that the earth went around the sun requires the sun to be way farther than they were willing to accept

But you'd need the distance from the moon to the sun for this calculation or not?

I could be wrong but does the half moon we mistake because of the moon Terminator effect?
