I believe it is fake factory, take a look at this and draw your own conclusion:

I think at this point only Vince McMahon can save NASA.

You must other view, i see no live-iss-stream

Iss would be somewhat akin to a Sub everything would need to be fixed on board. Subs have fully equipped machine shops. Valves need changing, liquids drained, pressure hoses replaced.......

It has just entered the shadow east of the tip of South America so there´s not much to see. It loses connection occasionally and sometimes points at the station itself. I watched two orbits yesterday. It´s pretty fascinating.

If you say "gullible" slowly it sounds like "oranges".

I´m sure that´s a major intellectual discovery to someone who believes that the earth is shaped like a pizza pie.

Probably the original title of the book was "Gullible's Travails." Cheesy

Gravity is a hoax its all to do Density.

Without gravity, density wouldn't do the things that you show in this picture/diagram. Without gravity the different substances and objects in the picture would be all mixed up, located anywhere within the jar, or outside of it if there wasn't any lid on the jar. Without gravity, density wouldn't have much of any meaning at all.

Yes, potential or stored energy. It´s stored as the result of the gravitational attraction of the Earth for an object.

The pen I hold in my hand has certain stored energy. If I drop it that energy turns into kinetic energy. It´s a zero sum equation here on earth so the pen does nothing to the floor but who knows on planet flatso it might bring down the building.

Are you talking about static electric?

No sorry I was talking about this, in my native language its called other

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_energy

So you have potential energy , otherwise you can't explain pressure and your density phenomena.

But what is that force itself if not gravity? Or in quantum physics how does it work?

But what force is pushing those layers against eachother?

I remember from physics class there was 2 kind of newtonian energy: static & kinetic.

So those items have static energies in them that are released become kinetic.

Ok but what is the static energy itself? Isnt that gravity itself or how does it work fundamentally or in the quantum world?

I think that sometimes simple explanations makes more sense to common people like us that are not into science. If tomorrow scientists discover parallel dimensions like I read some days ago, I can't hardly tell if that's truth or not really.

In this is case is a little ridiculous we can mostly agree, but not sure how many percentage of the population can actually understand and prove. Only a handful have been in the outer space. There are very few actual photos of deep space, the moon, even Mars. We have selfies all over the world, amazing panoramas. Where are the on site Mars pictures, valleys, etc? Any HD videos? That would be amazing, but what we have it's all CGI or satellite blurry stuff.

On earth the theoretical limit for the maximum height a tree can attain is about 130m, limited by the maximum height to which capillary action can carry water. So, my question to flat earth believers would be how would that work on a flat earth and would the maximum height be the same all over the flat disc, center to edge? Grin

The acceleration of the force we call gravity is measured to be roughly the same all over the surface (9.81 m/s²). However, this says nothing about its cause or mechanism of action which seems to me to be electromagnetic in nature. This being the case gravity would be a pseudo force like centrifugal force.

If a tree's maximum height is 130m then that's how high it will grow irrespective of whether the surface we live on is flat or a globe.

All right, since gravity doesn´t exist but things fall to earth due to some electromagnetic force how does a compass work on a flat earth? It has no north or south pole, right? As you may know; all magnets have two poles.

Actually, gravity is caused by the fact that people are planar rather than spatial creatures. After all, the animals don't know anything about the gravity they use.

In other words, the whole idea of gravity is all in your head.

It's like the ring magnet in a speaker, the N pole is at the center and the S pole is around the circumference.

I think it´s time to close this pointless topic.
