Bring me that horizon

Thought you guys might be interested to know that I asked a sailor friend of mine and he told me that on the open ocean, the horizon is four and a half miles away.
That's all!

But can you get there from here? :D
That's interesting to know, thanks!
I'd say trying to get there is kind of like trying to escape your shadow, though.
