you cant see detail on a mountain in the distance
You can in the desert where the air is dry. You hear on the weather report, "17 miles visibility" or whatever, that's how far you can see horizontally, even though it hardly impacts your hallucinating trannies walking past your house.
the moon (especially these days) is bright and crisp
Looking upward through the atmosphere is equivalent to 5 miles of fully pressurized atmosphere along the ground, except for the fact that weather is a low altitude phenomenon.
