Why can light from a tall lighthouse bee seen further away?

Because the earth is round. The light from a tall lighthouse will appear on the horizon before the light from a shorter lighthouse.

To have a better projection and to prevent sailor from getting in to danger of risking their ships, The light is usually found at the top of the structure, therefore its light could be seen from far away.

so that the light can be seen by ships

Because that's what it's supposed to do.

The higher the light atop the lighthouse is the farther it can be seen so it can save more boats from crashing

The curvature of the Earth creates the "horizon", which varies in distance depending on the height (elevation) of the land. Because the sea is uniformly "flat" in elevation, the only normal way to see farther is to climb to a higher part of the ship (for sailing ships, the masts). The same principle works in reverse for a lighthouse : it stands higher and so it "pokes up above the horizon". From the top of the lighthouse, you can see farther, and in turn be seen from farther away.

Heskey is a famous lighthouse that has seen many shipwrecks.

Some of them disintegrated, further away only the skeletons could be seen, further away some people were totally burned and further away people showed 1st, 2nd and 3 degree burns. People further died of radiation poisoning.

because the light travels through the water which splits the light and can only be seen from a certain distance away

The light of a star that can be seen from earth is actually light from many years ago. Since stars are so far away from our planet it takes thousands of years for their light to reach us.

In 1789 Alexander Hamilton was given authorization to investigate the feasibility of constructing a lighthouse to aid mariners sailing around or to the Outer Banks. The result was a recommendation to construct two lighthouses, one on the island of Ocracoke to guide ships into the Ocracoke Inlet and the other on Cape Hatteras as a light to warn ships away from the land and the dangerous Diamond Shoals. Authorization was granted in 1794, however, due to numerous delays primarily caused by weather and sickness, it wasn't until 1803 that a lighthouse was completed. The first lighthouse was not built on Ocracoke Island but on Shell Castle Island inside the Ocracoke Inlet. This original light was built by Henry Dearborn. It was a 55-foot tall wooden structure. In 1818 the lighthouse was struck by lightning and burned down. The current lighthouse on Ocracoke Island was built in 1823 by Noah Porter. It is a brick lighthouse that is covered with masonry and painted white. A fourth-order Fresnel lens was initially installed. The smaller lens was used since the lighthouse was considered a harbor light. The larger first-order Fresnel lens were used for the taller coastal lights. Even so, the light could be seen from about 14 miles away.

Either so they can be seen easier or from a long distance away, so they won't get hit by waves, or because it is the only spot that could fit a lighthouse.

depends on what the light is for? engine light? amber means its not serious but i would get it seen to straight away. the stop light means its serious

The farthest object seen my mankind is a gama ray burster approximately 13 billion (thousand million) light-years away. Previously the next farthest object was 12.8 billion light years away. A light year is approximately 24 trillion miles. (12 zeros) or 36 trillion km. The object seen was about 312,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles away. More interestingly, it happened when the universe was only on to two Billion years old.

10 parsec or 32.616 light years away

Because light pollution from Street lights and other ground level lights blocks it out. You see the light that is nearer to you rather than that which is further away and harder to see. This applies not only to the Milky Way but to other star Constellations too

The reason is that the lighthouse needs to be seen out in a considerable distance out into the ocean.

Any object that orbits further away. This includes the planets Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

The furthest thing you can see with the naked eye is the Andromeda galaxy, which is around 2 million light years away. That's the distance that light will travel in 2 million years. There are much further object, but you would need a telescope. There have been some distant galaxies photographed by Hubble, which are around 13 billion light years away, seen as they were near the formation of the universe. See the 'Hubble deep field' images.

You need to have seen Jasmine in the Olivine Lighthouse in Olivine City first. You'll find her at the top floor of the lighthouse.

Quasars can be very, very, very far away. And they are extremely bright. We've seen quasars that are 12 billion light years away from Earth (a light year is how far light travels in one year, and light travels at about 128 billion kilometers a second). Most quasars are actually big, bright galaxies shining from millions, or even billions of light years away from here.

The nearest dwarf star is Proxima Centauri, about 4.24 light years away and so dim it can't be seen in binoculars.

You see, Amphy -the Ampharos you're speaking of- is just standing there because he is the light keeper of the lighthouse, as Jasmine says. Amphy cannot be caught because he's just like the Pokemon seen in houses; nothing catch-able, but just for show.

Typically, the light in a modern lighthouse is a focused beam being mechanically rotated to sweep (turn) in a full circle. The "flash" is seen when it is pointing directly at you. Smaller lights on buoys are actually flashing on and off with switches, to be more visible. Both continuous and flashing buoys are used to designate channels and shoals.

The constellation Norma is approximately 200 million light years away from Earth. It is a small and inconspicuous constellation that can be seen in the southern hemisphere.
