refraction noun
re·?frac·?tion | \ ri-'frak-sh?n \
Definition of refraction
1 : deflection from a straight path undergone by a light ray or energy wave in passing obliquely from one medium (such as air) into another (such as glass) in which its velocity is different

You need to get a collar or some kind of wash for that. Deet is pretty good.

What air rises?

The light doesn’t pass through the mirror…

Because of all the second hand dope smoke. The air done got high.
That's why the government created birds. To flap their wings and push the high air back down so we fan keep breathing.

Because forts Jackson and St Phillip, both **GASP**, “forts” made of BRICK (which was impossible given the eta of their construction—I mean they are basically IN a river) distort space time and make stationary flotation in the area impossible.

What does smoke from a fire do?

Buoyancy differences due to heating of the ground/colder air moving in aloft/transport of moisture. Along with this, physical forcing of air upward due to things like cold fronts, upper divergence, differential cyclonic vorticity advection, and warm air advection at height.

I don't know about you, but it makes me cough.
Some of it also makes meat taste wonderful.

I know. And it didn't say pass through.
You seriously don't understand what refraction is. You really don't. You need to stop

You mean when the cooler, heavier air around the smoky air sinks beneath it due to gravity?

Did you miss the part of the definition where it specifically said the light passed from one medium into another?

What does it do when it passes into a large?

Light passes into a mirror, even a perfectly flat one. A bent one more so, and it refracts

Will you finally address how satellites work in your FE model?
I already have -- but you can't walk until you learn to crawl. This subject isn't for the weak. Or lazy. It takes time. You must "unlearn" much of what you've "learned" in the Prussian School system about "Science", "History", and so much more. Are you ready?
What's you main gnawing befuddlement on Satellites on a Flat Earth? By now you should know whatever what I know I've heavily researched.

No such thing. Mirrors are round.
