Lurch the stalker Posted November 18, 2016 Share It changes the "feel" on your skin -- the amount of UV light received. We're 2km up, and that's 2km less of "thick" atmosphere. More importantly, we're close to the equator, and that's more direct sunlight, so the sunlight travels less through the atmosphere, and there's more UV. The sky should also be lighter here, less blue, due to less rayleigh scattering. I've got no idea what the actual % difference is. Patch wasn't denying it gets hot here, what he was questioning was why they said the surface of the sun is hotter because of where we are (according to what they wrote) Morne Heystek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veebee Posted November 18, 2016 Share From the map they provided, we will enter from the main entrance at R55. Make sure your brakes are working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
