Maybe I should've named this as "Real-life structure scaling sprites"?
Okay since there's apparently "geniuses" who are able to scale ships and what-not on the show using presumed dimensions and pixels...
Lets see if such a technique can work on REAL LIFE images.
Measure the MetLife building at the end of Park Avenue here using pixel measurement. No googl-ing of it's actual height... allowed.

I took this pic while driving in Manhattan, stopped at this red light of course.
And here... the Buddhist temple/pyramid in Java island, Indonesia. The temple is called Borobodur... Looking at this pic, you think it's base is about as big as the Ha'Tak...

Im not gonna post the full pic, as they're quite large. And please don't move this thread as it deals with the exact and precise "Science" of pixel measurement...
Mainly, I wish this to be a counter-point to the effectiveness of measuring ships using people, the presumed height of people relative to ships, and etc.
