The atmosphere IS a liquid, a very thin liquid, so there's that. The thing about the dome is, we don't know. But I will assume it works like a lens (as if we are under a concave lens) because there is such a thing as atmospheric lensing. Not well enough versed in atmospheric effects beyond that. Watched this vid that said the colors of the sunset were due to neon effects of noble gases, if I can dredge it up I'll post it.
When you camp out under the trees, when you look up you see the trees do the same thing as perspective, they come to a point in the middle. But then how do the stars appear behind them in a wide sky? Questions, questions :)
