Title: HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)
Post by: cikljamas on July 20, 2019, 05:46:10 AM
First off : Apollo was not a hoax, but a straight up con of epic proportions.

Secondly : feel free to watch the best documentary ever uploaded on youtube about APOLLO - HOAX OF THE CENTURY (pay attention : download it, and reupload it on your channels, as soon as you can, since youtube is shutting my channel down) :

ON TOP OF THAT :

APOLLO HOAX - WHY RUSSIA NEVER SPILLED THE BEANS :


Moon landing propaganda is like software code being installed on people's brains. And it's purpose is to utterly warp a person's perception of their reality and their senses, to the point that they are likely to believe all manner of nonsense because once you accept that men have gone to the moon, a feat which I'm not even convinced will ever be within the realms of possibility seeing as there isn't even any evidence the moon is actually this rock in space that humans can fly to and land on, but once you accept this garbage you are much more likely to accept other totally unproven "facts" from these deceivers. Suddenly you have people believing unquestioningly the universe started with a big bang explosion from absolutely nothing that happened 14 billion years ago (impossible to know what happened 50,000 years ago let alone 14 BILLION, talk about total insanity) or that people evolved from bacteria in the ocean, all utter nonsense that can never ever be demonstrated, tested or proven in any way. Just math equations and computer models that are entirely made up. But once a person accepts just one of their mind warping propaganda programs, they inevitably end up believing them all.

I think the apollo missions play a big part in how people form their beliefs about the world and the universe so much so that accepting them as hoax would cause their worldviews to collapse and I don’t think most people today are ready to face that kind of a fundamental change in their lives. It changes everything. The apollo missions are nasa’s way of proving to people that they got all the answers and that everything is the way they claim it is because they’re the only ones that have been out there. Now you have billions of people in the world who believe in them and their doctrine and anyone who disagrees with them is portrayed as an insane paranoid conspiracy theorist. The technique used by narcissists to destroy the credibility of their victims.

Simple OFFICIAL science debunks the moon landing. - It's called Van Allen Belt, the radiation would kill everyone and all electronics. The materials used aluminum, nickel/iron, and titanium would have all melted due to the extreme radiation and temperatures.
How could they survive the radiation and high temperature, WITH THAT SUITE. i think that a bunch of fan could never handle that, cause that (include all things on back pack) will broken and become unusable on such a hot temperatures...Just how... is it calculated to know the temperature on the moon? Being the moon is some 1/4 million miles away? The temps calculated for the earth are not always accurate, let-alone to tell us the temps on the moons surface are such.  Are they shooting a beam to the moon such as one checking the temp of his steak on the grill? A 1/4 million miles away. Forgive—a thermometer was stuck in the soil upon arrival.

Our measurments show that the maximum radiation level as of 1958 is equivalent to between 10 and 100 roentgens per hour, depending on the still-undetermined proportion of protons to electrons. Since a human being exposed for two days to even 10 roentgens would have only an even chance of survival, the radiation belts obviously present an obstacle to space flight. Unless some practical way can be found to shield space-travelers against the effects of the radiation, manned space rockets can best take off through the radiation-free zone over the poles. A "space station" must orbit below 400 miles or beyond 30 000 miles from the earth. We are now planning a satellite flight that will test the efficacy of various methods of shielding. The hazard of space-travelers may not even end even when they have passed the terrestrial radiation belts... James Van Allen

Do tell where all the O2 was kept for them to breathe, for a scuba divers tank will only last for about an hour without complicated rebreather technology. Surly there was no such device then. -Two astronots breathing 02 from the time they left earth, to the time they returned to earth about seven days just where was all this 02 stored? A SCUBA divers tank which holds 80 cubit feet of air would calculate to 13,440 cubic feet of air needed for roughly 7 days just for two people. The air locks between the lunar rover and the outside, none. NONE!!! Fantasy the lot.

In1986 I was a 2nd Lt. and a newly minted, USAF officer and aviator, flying C-130s. One of my first operational missions was to fly some troops to Andrews AFB. We stayed in D.C. for two days. On one day, we wemt to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. When I saw the LEM and especially when I saw the lunar rover exhibit, a life size mock-up, I told one of my crewmates, another 2nd Lt., copilot, that this is b.s., no way they landed the LEM with that rover. After seeing that exhibit, I started questioning the veracity of the lunar landings. Most professional aviators do not have the balls to even question the lunar missions, let alone say that they were fake. Look at 911, any active aviator who questions 911 will be grounded. Few will say a thing when they know the Pentagon strike was a virtual impossibility. John Basilone

Blazing Saddles, Boyz in the Hood, Star Wars, and Back to the Future are just a few of the hundreds of films collected in the Library of Congress. But we’re to believe NASA can’t preserve the telemetry data from the moon missions. Hahahahahah!!!
Don’t get me wrong. Those are all great films but I believe the significance of the moon data  may be just a tad bit more important. I guess it’s hard to hold on to something that never existed.

IN ADDITION :

ROCKETS CAN'T FLY IN A VACUUM :


One other guy (below one other similar video) left this very interesting comment :

No... Rockets do not make what they push against to work. It's fluid dynamics...it does not matter if it's water... Or air... It works the exact same way...its like saying that a submarine makes the water that the propeller pushes against while it's on land.. people will agree that the submarine would not move..The same exact thing will happen to a rocket in space.. That is the dumbest and most idiotic wrong explanation of how rockets work that is even possible. Because space is as close of a perfect vacuum there is ...it is impossible to have thrust... Saying that a rocket pushes off it's own gas from combustion is ludicrous... It's no different than saying that you can blow hard enough into a vacuum cleaner and make positive pressure... A vacuum cleaner is a very extremely small fraction of the vacuum of space....just like a vacuum cleaner will suck the air right out of your lungs... Space will do the same exact thing to a rocket... Only many many many many many many many many times quicker and the molecules will go in every direction evenly making thrust  impossible ....using small box like this moron... You release pressure into the box and after the box gets to 0 pressure... The rocket.. "can"...will apply force to the container until there is enough pressure to prevent this from happening then it will push off of its own gasses inside the box... This does absolutely nothing but prove that you should not listen to anything this idiot says at all... ever... until he admits this experiment is flawed and invalid.  If he does not at least do that... Then he is purposely deceiving people....personally I think he is deceiving people. I work with pressures and vacuums every single day I work and I guarantee that there is not a single person on this planet that can prove what I said was incorrect or untrue.  He does not have a vacuum pump that is able to take the gasses out of that chamber as fast as its being put in... Like it would be in space....he pulled a vacuum and closed a valve taking the vacuum pump ..."space" out of the experiment....invalid experiment... And he got the wrong conclusion because the experiment was invalid...

In his next response he said this :

You still did not say that I was wrong... So what the fuck was the point of your comment because I don't see one... you are a troll that somehow benifits off of the deceptions of the government...if u can't prove me wrong... Than go fuck yourself ...if you can prove wrong me then do it....are you telling me you do not know how things move through water...because thats all you need to understand  for proof rockets do not work in a vacuum... It's really that simple....will a submarine move that is on land that makes  the water that the propeller pushes against even if there was no friction between the submarine and ground... You are telling people that the submarine would move... research articles for what... How things move through water?...the only person that is not being logical is you... And also... What was your point of throwing in the GPS reference... Is that the only counter argument you have against what I said...are you saying that rockets work in space because the GPS loses reception in a tunnel... Damn you are desperate for a counter argument if u  threw that in there...who ever gave you a high school diploma needs to be fired... That's if you didn't drop out... Which I think is most likely

Finally, look what happens when you fly over the target :

You are useless.

Can rockets fly in a vacuum? Be useful (at least once in your whole useless life) and prove that they can... You can't? Of course you can't! You are of no use to anyone since you are a perfect example of useless eater, aren't you? If you think you are not, then prove me wrong! Do i ask too much of you? Don't worry, we all know you will never produce any useful argument whatsoever, however, despite that you will always find an excuse for being perfectly fine with living with yourself (as such), will you not?

It boils down to this :

Rocket doesn't need atmosphere. It pushes itself off own gasses.

Good luck with that.

Now, try to explain why and how rocket pushes itself off own gasses!

Oh wait, this is your explanation (isn't it) :

At the very moment of the exit, at that spot is not vacuum any more, those gasses are there still under pressure.
At the next moment they were gone backwards, but the rocket already received the increase of speed forward,
ready to receive next increase by the next layer of gasses.


Well,

Theoretical physics can prove that an elephant can hang off a cliff with its tail tied to a daisy!

APOLLO HOAX - WHY RUSSIA NEVER SPILLED THE BEANS :


Moon landing propaganda is like software code being installed on people's brains. And it's purpose is to utterly warp a person's perception of their reality and their senses, to the point that they are likely to believe all manner of nonsense because once you accept that men have gone to the moon, a feat which I'm not even convinced will ever be within the realms of possibility seeing as there isn't even any evidence the moon is actually this rock in space that humans can fly to and land on, but once you accept this garbage you are much more likely to accept other totally unproven "facts" from these deceivers. Suddenly you have people believing unquestioningly the universe started with a big bang explosion from absolutely nothing that happened 14 billion years ago (impossible to know what happened 50,000 years ago let alone 14 BILLION, talk about total insanity) or that people evolved from bacteria in the ocean, all utter nonsense that can never ever be demonstrated, tested or proven in any way. Just math equations and computer models that are entirely made up. But once a person accepts just one of their mind warping propaganda programs, they inevitably end up believing them all.

I think the apollo missions play a big part in how people form their beliefs about the world and the universe so much so that accepting them as hoax would cause their worldviews to collapse and I don’t think most people today are ready to face that kind of a fundamental change in their lives. It changes everything. The apollo missions are nasa’s way of proving to people that they got all the answers and that everything is the way they claim it is because they’re the only ones that have been out there. Now you have billions of people in the world who believe in them and their doctrine and anyone who disagrees with them is portrayed as an insane paranoid conspiracy theorist. The technique used by narcissists to destroy the credibility of their victims.

Simple OFFICIAL science debunks the moon landing. - It's called Van Allen Belt, the radiation would kill everyone and all electronics. The materials used aluminum, nickel/iron, and titanium would have all melted due to the extreme radiation and temperatures.
How could they survive the radiation and high temperature, WITH THAT SUITE. i think that a bunch of fan could never handle that, cause that (include all things on back pack) will broken and become unusable on such a hot temperatures...Just how... is it calculated to know the temperature on the moon? Being the moon is some 1/4 million miles away? The temps calculated for the earth are not always accurate, let-alone to tell us the temps on the moons surface are such.  Are they shooting a beam to the moon such as one checking the temp of his steak on the grill? A 1/4 million miles away. Forgive—a thermometer was stuck in the soil upon arrival.

Our measurments show that the maximum radiation level as of 1958 is equivalent to between 10 and 100 roentgens per hour, depending on the still-undetermined proportion of protons to electrons. Since a human being exposed for two days to even 10 roentgens would have only an even chance of survival, the radiation belts obviously present an obstacle to space flight. Unless some practical way can be found to shield space-travelers against the effects of the radiation, manned space rockets can best take off through the radiation-free zone over the poles. A "space station" must orbit below 400 miles or beyond 30 000 miles from the earth. We are now planning a satellite flight that will test the efficacy of various methods of shielding. The hazard of space-travelers may not even end even when they have passed the terrestrial radiation belts... James Van Allen

Do tell where all the O2 was kept for them to breathe, for a scuba divers tank will only last for about an hour without complicated rebreather technology. Surly there was no such device then. -Two astronots breathing 02 from the time they left earth, to the time they returned to earth about seven days just where was all this 02 stored? A SCUBA divers tank which holds 80 cubit feet of air would calculate to 13,440 cubic feet of air needed for roughly 7 days just for two people. The air locks between the lunar rover and the outside, none. NONE!!! Fantasy the lot.

In1986 I was a 2nd Lt. and a newly minted, USAF officer and aviator, flying C-130s. One of my first operational missions was to fly some troops to Andrews AFB. We stayed in D.C. for two days. On one day, we wemt to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. When I saw the LEM and especially when I saw the lunar rover exhibit, a life size mock-up, I told one of my crewmates, another 2nd Lt., copilot, that this is b.s., no way they landed the LEM with that rover. After seeing that exhibit, I started questioning the veracity of the lunar landings. Most professional aviators do not have the balls to even question the lunar missions, let alone say that they were fake. Look at 911, any active aviator who questions 911 will be grounded. Few will say a thing when they know the Pentagon strike was a virtual impossibility. John Basilone

Blazing Saddles, Boyz in the Hood, Star Wars, and Back to the Future are just a few of the hundreds of films collected in the Library of Congress. But we’re to believe NASA can’t preserve the telemetry data from the moon missions. Hahahahahah!!!
Don’t get me wrong. Those are all great films but I believe the significance of the moon data  may be just a tad bit more important. I guess it’s hard to hold on to something that never existed.

IN ADDITION :

ROCKETS CAN'T FLY IN A VACUUM :


One other guy (below one other similar video) left this very interesting comment :

No... Rockets do not make what they push against to work. It's fluid dynamics...it does not matter if it's water... Or air... It works the exact same way...its like saying that a submarine makes the water that the propeller pushes against while it's on land.. people will agree that the submarine would not move..The same exact thing will happen to a rocket in space.. That is the dumbest and most idiotic wrong explanation of how rockets work that is even possible. Because space is as close of a perfect vacuum there is ...it is impossible to have thrust... Saying that a rocket pushes off it's own gas from combustion is ludicrous... It's no different than saying that you can blow hard enough into a vacuum cleaner and make positive pressure... A vacuum cleaner is a very extremely small fraction of the vacuum of space....just like a vacuum cleaner will suck the air right out of your lungs... Space will do the same exact thing to a rocket... Only many many many many many many many many times quicker and the molecules will go in every direction evenly making thrust  impossible ....using small box like this moron... You release pressure into the box and after the box gets to 0 pressure... The rocket.. "can"...will apply force to the container until there is enough pressure to prevent this from happening then it will push off of its own gasses inside the box... This does absolutely nothing but prove that you should not listen to anything this idiot says at all... ever... until he admits this experiment is flawed and invalid.  If he does not at least do that... Then he is purposely deceiving people....personally I think he is deceiving people. I work with pressures and vacuums every single day I work and I guarantee that there is not a single person on this planet that can prove what I said was incorrect or untrue.  He does not have a vacuum pump that is able to take the gasses out of that chamber as fast as its being put in... Like it would be in space....he pulled a vacuum and closed a valve taking the vacuum pump ..."space" out of the experiment....invalid experiment... And he got the wrong conclusion because the experiment was invalid...

In his next response he said this :

You still did not say that I was wrong... So what the fuck was the point of your comment because I don't see one... you are a troll that somehow benifits off of the deceptions of the government...if u can't prove me wrong... Than go fuck yourself ...if you can prove wrong me then do it....are you telling me you do not know how things move through water...because thats all you need to understand  for proof rockets do not work in a vacuum... It's really that simple....will a submarine move that is on land that makes  the water that the propeller pushes against even if there was no friction between the submarine and ground... You are telling people that the submarine would move... research articles for what... How things move through water?...the only person that is not being logical is you... And also... What was your point of throwing in the GPS reference... Is that the only counter argument you have against what I said...are you saying that rockets work in space because the GPS loses reception in a tunnel... Damn you are desperate for a counter argument if u  threw that in there...who ever gave you a high school diploma needs to be fired... That's if you didn't drop out... Which I think is most likely

Finally, look what happens when you fly over the target :

Take the argument over to the other thread. It’s all explained there.

If it is explained there, then you don't even have to use your own words, you can simply quote few most important (crucial) sentences (that make the core of your argument), can't you?

You haven't noticed (since you haven't watched it, in the first place), but this scientist is referring to your argument (as well) in the video :



ON TOP OF THAT, I AM GOING TO USE SOMEONE ELSE'S WORDS (ON THIS MATTER) AGAIN (SORRY FOR THAT) :

I still don't see how this explains why rockets can provide thrust in a vacuum at all, one must be foolish to take this as a valid experiment. The balloon pressurized the vacuum and gave it something to push off of, along with the walls of the chamber itself. The only way to prove either side is to get an infinite vacuum and a rocket inside of it (Good luck getting the funding!!). Some may attempt explaining this by stating the example of a person throwing a cinder block standing on a skateboard and relating it to a rocket forcing out hot expanding gasses, but they are different. One is like firing a heavy round from a rifle, and the other is firing a blank, except the rifles are fired in an infinite vacuum. Rockets work in an infinite vacuum only in a NASA studio paid for with our taxes. I will try to address the explanation given by InfernoVortex, there is no gas in space that expands to push the rocket, the rocket thrust doesn't have mass for the rocket to push off of and a vacuum would dissipate the hot gases very quickly. This is the most absurd claim ever. Now to wait for all the little scientists to tell me I'm stupid and say "Its science silly, you are just too stupid to understand it."

The Action Lab ....please explain how a rocket pushes off it's own gas... That's got to  the dumbest reason I have ever heard as the reason a rocket would work in space... So as an example... You are stating a rocket has an exhaust of 100 Psi then it ejects exhaust at 500 psi and this is how rockets work?....instead of the very obvious reason the can has thrust in  this example is because force is being applied to the container...in order for Newton's third law a force must be applied to something else in order to be able to get an opposite reaction....so with a rocket that weighs a million lbs in space... The rocket would have to apply 1 million pounds of thrust off of something just to get it to begin to move...

The Apollo landings all happened as advertised. (This is super easy)

Rockets: The spacecraft is propelled away from the gases when they are expelled. It doesn't push off empty space. It's like if you kick someone in space, you'll drift back as well.  That's a super simple concept even a child can understand.

Apollo 15 left a retroreflector on the moon.  You can aim a poweeful laser at it from Earth and no matter what the angle of incidence, it will reflect back (that's what a retroreflector is). Using this ranging technique, you cam also measure the curvature of Earth and see that it is indeed a globe.

There's video proof of Neil Armstrong flying a training mission at Edwards AFB, showing you can land the LEM.  On the moon, it's easier, because the gravity is weaker.

Radio signals:

Every nation on Earth could have independently verified the lunar landings since our radio signals were coming from the moon.  Russia had every reason to capitalize on the propoganda win of a faked landing.

Supporting evidence:
Weather: You can gather the weather observations of all the weather stations across the U.S. and they match up with the film they shot on their departure to the moon.

The live video was shot in 10 frames per second.  You can't slow that down for some effect. That's not how overcranking works. Also, it was live.

Think of it this way.  Place a bomb next to a soccerball.  The soccerball with fly off away from the ball when the bomb explodes.  This bomb does not rely on the air pressure around it to do this, but the explosive material inside it.  Now take a bullet.  When you fire it from a gun, the bullet will still travel fast, regardless of any air behind it.  So, with a rocket, the body of the rocket moves because the rockets fuel is directing a very powerful explosion in one direction.  That exploding fire doesn't rely on air to push the rocket body.  It relies on the tons of exploding rocket fuel for this force.

Who is talking about flat earth here? You know very well that i don't believe in flat-earth stupid theory, and despite that you bring in the discussion totally unrelated topic. Only total idiots and lowlife scumbags use such derailing/deceptive techniques in order to try to discredit their opponents...

The fact that the nozzle makes the car go slower is the fact that the escaping air in the nozzle expands (pressure drop) and slows down, is the nozzle to big then the force isn't big enough to pusch the car.
Thats why rockets need different nozzles (for max performance) depending on the air pressure.

And let's have a look at rockets flying in a vacuum :

NASA sais : Its Newtons third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

so when i push against a wall with 50 kg the wall pushes back with 50 kg ????

  - A wall is lifeless and can't pusch back (reaction) ??
  - something opposite is equal ??

doesn't sound that right does it, when i push against a wall and the wall does not move, it's not pushing back but RESISTING my action from 50 kg and it feels to me as if the wall would be pusching.

so resistance is a very importent part of newtons third law

let's look at a example with a football :

  1. i kick a football made of concreet that can not move with 50 kg, to me it would feel as if the football would hit my foot with 50 kg so Fr = -Fa x 1 (1 is the factor of resistance = max)

  2. this time it is a normal football, it won't feel to me as if the football hits my foot with 50 kg but maybe only 25kg so Fr = -Fa x 0.5

  3. and when i kick and miss the football (resistance = zero / vacuum) i dont feel any force on my foot so Fr = - Fa x 0


you can also do the same experiment with a wall,
When it is fixed on the ground you can't move it, put it on some wheels then you can move it and you will experience a smaller force
And ofcourse when you try this on ice (very low resistance) nothing will move because you can't push without the necessary resistance that stops your feet from slipping

Then why do they teach newton's third law as beeing Fr=-Fa and not Fr=-Fa x r (resistance coefficient)
Well if they don't hide the fact that resistance is needed they can't keep the space myth alive

Instead of kicking a football push it with your hands. It will look something like this.

See how air plays zero part in this.  It's all about the mass of the ball and how hard you can push it.

Glad we got that cleared up. Unless of course you can "Prove that the rocket propellant has no mass and velocity," as Macarios has asked.

ROCKETS CAN'T FLY IN A VACUUM - 2 :


Rocket uses long lasting controlled explosion to get pushed by its blast.

~~~~~~~~~~

When the gasses in the combustion chamber burn they gain temperature, which means their molecules gain kinetic energy.
It increases pressure and the gasses are trying to expand.
Combustion chamber is closed on all sides except where the nozzle is.
All walls get pressed by the expanding gasses (kicked by the molecules) except the apperture.
That's where the gasses are expanding through.

As you can see, the pressure (the distribution of forces) is asymmetrical making the chamber (and the rocket with it) move to the opposite from the opening.

Additionally, the more force is gained by further expansion of the gasses in the nozzle, where the pressure forces are also asymmetrically distributed.

~~~~~~~~~~

The Red force does not get balanced by Light Blue force, because Light Blue force doesn't press the opposite wall of the combustion chamber (the gasses "just" get out):
(http://i63.tinypic.com/ac4zlj.png)

~~~~~~~~~~

Further violent expansion of gasses inside the nozzle pushes the rocket additionally:

About the video you linked, you were right.
Any space agency, not just NASA, would use properly calculated nozzle instead of anything similar to the one those two guys used.

Secondly, NASA didn't have the technology to fake the moon landings.

Being the best documentary on a lie doesn't magically make it true.
How about instead of providing a documentary filled with nonsense you try making a rational argument, even if it is just presenting one from the documentary?


Moon landing propaganda is like software code being installed on people's brains. And it's purpose is to utterly warp a person's perception of their reality and their senses, to the point that they are likely to believe all manner of nonsense because once you accept that men have gone to the moon, a feat which I'm not even convinced will ever be within the realms of possibility seeing as there isn't even any evidence the moon is actually this rock in space that humans can fly to and land on, but once you accept this garbage you are much more likely to accept other totally unproven "facts" from these deceivers.
So what you really mean is when people start to accept one part of reality and see that a religion is wrong, they are more likely to accept more points that show that religion is wrong, instead of blindly following religious indoctrination?

Simple OFFICIAL science debunks the moon landing.
No it doesn't, not in the slightest.
Instead it confirms it, such as by the subsequent space probes that went to the moon and photographed the landing sites, and the retroreflectors placed on the moon to bounce light off it.

It's called Van Allen Belt
A region of radiation that the Apollo craft went mainly around, rather than through.
If you wish to claim that the radiation would be lethal and fry the electronics you will need more than an assertion.

The materials used aluminum, nickel/iron, and titanium would have all melted due to the extreme radiation and temperatures.
The radiation would not cause it to melt. That is just pure nonsense.
What makes you think it would?
As for the extreme temperatures, the thermal mass of the minuscule amount of gas they passed through was minuscule and thus would be unable to melt them.
Just like you can stick your hand in an oven at 250 C and not get burnt, unless you leave it in there for quite some time.


Our measurments show that the maximum radiation level as of 1958 is equivalent to between 10 and 100 roentgens per hour, depending on the still-undetermined proportion of protons to electrons. Since a human being exposed for two days to even 10 roentgens would have only an even chance of survival, the radiation belts obviously present an obstacle to space flight. Unless some practical way can be found to shield space-travelers against the effects of the radiation, manned space rockets can best take off through the radiation-free zone over the poles. A "space station" must orbit below 400 miles or beyond 30 000 miles from the earth. We are now planning a satellite flight that will test the efficacy of various methods of shielding. The hazard of space-travelers may not even end even when they have passed the terrestrial radiation belts... James Van Allen
You really need a better citation for that. Not just "Van Allen".
Where did he say this?

The roentgen was an exposure for x-rays and gamma rays, not for protons and electrons.
The actual dose given to a person will vary depending on the radiation (including its energy).

So there is no basis to conclude it was lethal.
Also note that they didn't just send people straight through the belt and instead followed a trajectory which avoided the majority of the radiation.

If you want to assert that the belts would be a problem you need more than an old quote.

Do tell where all the O2 was kept for them to breathe, for a scuba divers tank will only last for about an hour without complicated rebreather technology.
Do you know why? As there are many factors.
Firstly, the scuba divers don't just sit around at the surface. Instead they dive deep into water, often going 10s or 100s of m down.
Do you know what happens then? The pressure increases.
In order for lungs to work, the air pressure inside them needs to be the same as the outside pressure.
This means instead of drawing in a volume of air at 1 atm, they will draw it in at multiples of atm.
This is a very large waste of air. For example, if a tank held 80 cubic feet of air at 1 atm, breathing it in at 10 atm would only provide 8 cubic feet.
So if instead of just wasting all that air due to the greater pressure, how long do you think it would last at 1 atm, or a lower pressure?

Then there is the difficulty of the rebreather.
It is complex because of where it is.
You need to capture the users exhaled breath, without providing too much resistance to making breathing hard, and then give them back the oxygen.
On a spacecraft it is much easier. They just need a CO2 scrubber and make up gas.

Also note that rebreathers are much older than you think. People were already starting to make them in the 1800s.

A SCUBA divers tank which holds 80 cubit feet of air would calculate to 13,440 cubic feet of air needed for roughly 7 days just for two people.
Based upon the assumption that they need 80 cubic feet of air per 2 hours.
Where did you pull this number from?
Just your earlier claims based upon scuba divers at high pressure wasting a lot of oxygen?

A quick search indicates humans use roughly 500 l of oxygen each day. This works out to be ~ 7000 l of oxygen or 250 cubic feet.
If that is compressed to 200 bar then you only need 35 l of compressed oxygen, or just over a cubic foot.

So there was plenty of space for that air.


Your quote from some random just rejecting the idea of moon landing doesn't support your case either.
He provides no justification for why he called BS.

Blazing Saddles, Boyz in the Hood, Star Wars, and Back to the Future are just a few of the hundreds of films collected in the Library of Congress. But we’re to believe NASA can’t preserve the telemetry data from the moon missions. Hahahahahah!!!
They have preserved the telemetry, just not on the original media.
Do you understand the difference?
But even if they did lose all the data, that proves nothing.
It doesn't magically mean the moon landings are fake.

See unlike movies, there was only one take as it was the real deal. That can make it much harder to preserve.
Movies have countless takes which is then all stitched together to produce the final product which is mass produced and distributed.

ROCKETS CAN'T FLY IN A VACUUM :
Unless you want to discard how pressure works and conservation of momentum, they do work in a vacuum.

If you would like to provide an argument as to why they can't, feel free. But I will skip your youtube spam.

If you do decide to make an argument, please explain what happens to the gas generated inside the rocket, and as a hint, it can't go out in all directions as the rocket blocks the majority of those directions.

so feel free to acquaint yourself with their fake excuse by reading just a few excerpts from my "hate speech" video :
Youtube shutting down your channel is irreverent to the moon landings.
Posting a few snippets from a video which was taken down for hate speech doesn't show that there was no hate speech in the video. You would need to provide the entire video.

The only way to prove either side is to get an infinite vacuum and a rocket inside of it (Good luck getting the funding!!).
You mean like taking a rocket into space and having it still work?

We did that, but your side dismisses it as fake because you baselessly assert that rockets can't work in a vacuum.

And no, you don't need to do that.
Simple physics shows that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.
There is no doubt about it.

so when i push against a wall with 50 kg the wall pushes back with 50 kg ????
  - A wall is lifeless and can't pusch back (reaction) ??
  - something opposite is equal ??
doesn't sound that right does it, when i push against a wall and the wall does not move, it's not pushing back but RESISTING my action from 50 kg and it feels to me as if the wall would be pusching.
You not liking it means squat.

Equal and opposite is really equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
i.e. if you push right with 50 N, the wall pushes left with 50 N.

Firstly, you don't push with 50 kg. kg is a unit of mass, not force.
Lets change it to 50 N.
Also, lets add a box in the middle, you will see why this is important.
So now you apply 50 N to the box towards the right. This will accelerate the box off to the right.
But the wall is in the way. This means the 50 N would be applied to the wall. But just doing that still leaves 50 N being applied to the box.
This means the box has to accelerate.
The only way to prevent the box accelerating is if the wall pushes to the left with 50 N.
This then means the total force on the box is 0 N.

See how the wall has to push back to have reality make sense?
This "resistance" you want to pretend is just resistance is actually the equal and opposite reaction force.

So no, Newton's third law still holds true.
Applying that to a rocket, that means the gasses accelerating out of the rocket push the rocket, without any need for any air around the rocket.

  2. this time it is a normal football, it won't feel to me as if the football hits my foot with 50 kg but maybe only 25kg so Fr = -Fa x 0.5
Pure nonsense.
What are you using to determine what force it feels like?
Especially as you don't magically just kick with 50 N.

What is actually varying is the compressability of the ball and its inertia.
With a solid ball which is very heavy, your 50 N force will be unable to move it any significant amount and your foot will be stopped quite quickly.
This means the force experienced will actually be much higher as it stops your foot over a very short period of time.
With a soft, compressible ball, the ball initially deforms, requiring much less force, because it is no longer needing to stop your foot quite quickly.
In both cases, the action and reaction force are equal.

  3. and when i kick and miss the football (resistance = zero / vacuum) i dont feel any force on my foot so
So your foot is not applying a force. Wow, 0=0, who would have thought.

you can also do the same experiment with a wall
And while different you will get similar results.
If the wall is fixed, then you are pushing against it and you can apply a very large force and feel it all pushing back.
Put on some wheels then if you apply enough force you will move the wall and find it harder to apply the same force to it as before.
Go on ice so your feet slip, you no longer have the capability of pushing on the wall because to do so and remain fixed in place the ground is also pushing you to hold you in place. With the much lower friction between you and the ground, you can no longer apply a significant lateral force to the ground and thus it can't apply one back to you, so you can't push the wall to the side.

Again, in all cases, Fa=Fr.

Then why do they teach newton's third law as beeing Fr=-Fa and not Fr=-Fa x r (resistance coefficient)
Because that is a load of nonsense, not backed up by reality at all.
Changing the resistance will change how much force you can apply. This means it changes both Fa and Fr. Also note that the inertia of the object will also change the resistance.
An example of this is try pushing a very light object on wheels, then a very heavy one.
A car, even on wheels, is much harder to get moving than a skateboard.

If you wish to object to Newton's third law, deal with the box example.
What holds the box there if the wall doesn't push back?

Then you can start dealing with pressure.

A rocket produces pressurised gas.
This gas wants to expand in all direction, pushing outwards as it does so.
In the vast majority of these directions, it runs into the rocket and pushes on the rocket. If it was entirely enclosed, this would be balanced in all directions resulting in no net force.
But it isn't. One portion of the rocket has an opening which allows the gas to escape. This means the force on the rocket will not be balanced and you get a net force pushing the rocket forwards. The reactionary force pushes the gas out of the rocket.

Yes that happens at times.
We cannot keep a record of all updated versions of reality from NASA and what currently is considered fake.

It all started with the Michael Collins Gemini spacewalk... that happened to be a reversed shot from a testing facility on earth.
But then it was claimed by the repair team that NASA had nothing to do with it. It were the evil actions of a small publisher who did it with a couple of cissors  ;D

Jay Windley & co have lifted the NASA repair team to the next level.

Ps i did watch your entire Buzz video.... and i liked it !

How do you know the temperature on the moon when the astronauts were there? Were YOU there to measure it?

But, yes I have some idea of the temperature control used in the Landing Module and the Command Module..
First you must remember that in the direct sunlight the surface temperature might reach 260C but on the shade side radiate heat away and can get as cold as -100C.
So the temperature can be controlled be balancing the heat in on one side with the heat out on the other.
NASA had carefully planned all this long before.

The laws of physics asserts that humans and every other living, walking, running, jumping, crawling, flying or swimming creature and all man-made machines that move on wheels, tracks and legs, fly or hover with propellers, rotors, jets or rockets must have the inherent ability to thrust against a separate external resistant force in order to be able to physically move in a chosen direction.

Consider this:

Since space is, as we currently understand it, a vacuum with zero air pressure, the only way to make a rocket appear to be able to work in space would be to somehow demonstrate that, (unlike everything else on Earth), a rocket does not require the separate external resistant force of air pressure to thrust against.

Naturally, this premise could only be possible if there was a scientific method of rocket propulsion that looked authentic. A method that seemed so credible it would make people believe a rocket could work, not only in the dense atmosphere of Earth, but also in the airless void of space. A method that was plausible enough to brainwash the entire world into believing a rocket could really work in a vacuum.

And the only way to do that would be to completely disregard the laws of physics, utilise a skewed version of Newton’s third law and then advance the fanciful premise that a rockets thrust could push away from its own rocket and the rocket body could push away from its own thrust, thereby achieving upward motion by becoming self-perpetuating.

To demonstrate this ‘self-perpetuating’ premise, NASA created their ‘bowling ball’ model.
 
This model asserts that, if you stand on a skateboard with a bowling ball and you throw the ball away from you, the action will cause you and the skateboard to move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. (Naturally, you would get exactly the same effect standing on a skateboard and pushing against a solid wall).

But does it really prove a rocket can work in a vacuum?

There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).

So, INERTIA (of the bowling ball) is the magic word (an explanation) that you are looking for (which is behind this fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method.

Do i have to remind you to one other equally fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method that should have looked authentic (dropping a ball in a moving train/airplane)???

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).

HERE IT IS : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78814.msg2128697#msg2128697

Now, back on the track :

Pay attention to this very important (exposing) aspect of NASA's fraudulent method (bowling ball) :
In which exact moment does our guy (on the skateboard) starts to move back (in the video posted by sokarul)???

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)

BOWLING BALL SLOW MOTION REVEALS NASA'S SCAM :


Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
That is to say, if we could make the ball to disappear (to vanish into thin air) in the exact same moment when our skateboard guy extends his hands to the full extent (few milliseconds before he throws the ball), he would be still pushed back to the same degree as it is shown in sokarul's video.
Now, all you have to do is to apply this same logic to our "balloon exhausting" experiments and explain to us, why this fraudulent NASA's method doesn't work the same way in both cases???

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

I can give you a hint...”when a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY........”   
.......let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!! (near, perfect, partial, pure,  or whatever kind of “vacuum” you can IMAGINE UP!!!)

If you figure that out, you”ll understand your mistake...   hopefully

No, the “second body” isnt the gases...     maybe thats why you’re confused..
...  in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body”  applying force (expelled gases)  to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back”  with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket)   forcing it to go up..

What happens when a bomb explodes? The pieces that were once part of the bomb fly in all directions. No "separate external resistant force" was needed.
So stop making up your own pretend "Laws od Physics"!

In a rocket the thrust is mainly due to the tonnes of exhaust gas, that was once in the rocket and becomes external, pushed out of the nozzle at hypersonic velocities - get used to it!

And this thrust = (mass flow rate) x (exhaust velocity) and that was kown long before you  orI were born!

Your stupidity reminded me to one other similar conversation :

AN IDIOT SAYS THIS : Visualize instead what a rocket really is. It's just a bomb that explodes over time pushing itself forward with the force of exploded gas behind it propelling it forward. the nozzle at the end is just a big sail that catches one side of the explosion. A better simulation would be to sit on a skateboard with a trash can lid strapped to your back and toss grenades behind you and see if it the explosion propels you forward. a little dangerous maybe but much closer to how a rocket works haha

THE CLEVER GUY RESPONDED : Everything you said in every reply is summarized in that passage. Your 'philosophy' is rubbish, and needs to be discarded. There is no half of an explosion etc that you postulate, complete and utter NONSENSE! when an explosion occurs in the nozzle the whole rocket explodes. You need to understand what CONTROLLED COMBUSTION means, it is directional and has a flame front, it does not explode out in all directions and half does one thing and the other half another. Even in car engines the same principle applies.

Straight from my "rocket school for dummies" notes: BOWLING BALL VS AIR: rockets like jets push off air, one uses compressed air the other expanding gases, take away the air or interfere with full penetration of the air by the exhaust thrust column as you saw in the video above, and as we see at lift off by the flame trench and the rocket goes nowhere or in the later case the flame trench retards the accent by acting as a throttle, thus, we falsify what you just said, because we are not using bowling balls but air, and we falsify the claim that all work is done before the gas exits, any questions??

Ckljamas, there's a whole other thread devoted to rocket propulsion, perhaps you could add to that thread?

Dutchy, in the video, the two men are lying.

The backdrop is not identical in the two photos. The mountain shape on right bulges up slightly compared to on the left, and the shadowing is different. When superimposing, the mountains are similar, but not identical. The terrain in the foreground is also different between photos.

Have a closer look.

Their whole argument rests on the backgrounds being identical and they aren't. The photo on right is taken in front of lunar landing module, and closer to the mountain than in photo on the left, which explains all the differences.

As such, there is no end of set and no front projection involved in the photos. That's an assumption based on their bias.

Look closer and you will also see tracks behind the lunar rover. Remember, the tyres were made of aluminium mesh, wire, and titanium blocks, not rubber. Thus, the tracks left, are finer than tracks left by vehicles here on earth in sand.

The lunar rovers had cooling radiators for the batteries, and built to withstand moon temperature fluctuations of -328 degrees Fahrenheit to 392 degrees Fahrenheit. The batteries were kept within operating temperatures.

The photo left on the moon surface is fine. Regolith doesn't conduct heat well, and there is no indication air is inside the bag with the photo. The oven comparison is a joke.

The footprint in the photo is held together due to kinetic energy of the regolith, with no moisture necessary, and what makes anyone think the photo couldn't be cropped or be one of several photos?

Back to the starry moon sky argument again. Armstrong and Collins both say they didn't see stars on the Apollo 11 moon landing. Collins saw stars during the Gemini 7 spacewalk, so why are these pair of fools even comparing what they say about seeing stars?

There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).

So, INERTIA (of the bowling ball) is the magic word (an explanation) that you are looking for (which is behind this fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method.

Do i have to remind you to one other equally fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method that should have looked authentic (dropping a ball in a moving train/airplane)???

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).

HERE IT IS : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78814.msg2128697#msg2128697

Now, back on the track :

Pay attention to this very important (exposing) aspect of NASA's fraudulent method (bowling ball) :
In which exact moment does our guy (on the skateboard) starts to move back (in the video posted by sokarul)???

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)

BOWLING BALL SLOW MOTION REVEALS NASA'S SCAM :


Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
That is to say, if we could make the ball to disappear (to vanish into thin air) in the exact same moment when our skateboard guy extends his hands to the full extent (few milliseconds before he throws the ball), he would be still pushed back to the same degree as it is shown in sokarul's video.
Now, all you have to do is to apply this same logic to our "balloon exhausting" experiments and explain to us, why this fraudulent NASA's method doesn't work the same way in both cases???

ROCKETS CAN'T FLY IN A VACUUM - 3 :


Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

I can give you a hint...”when a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY........”   
.......let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!! (near, perfect, partial, pure,  or whatever kind of “vacuum” you can IMAGINE UP!!!)

If you figure that out, you”ll understand your mistake...   hopefully

No, the “second body” isnt the gases...     maybe thats why you’re confused..
...  in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body”  applying force (expelled gases)  to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back”  with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket)   forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, whare there is no “second body” to act upon???

The laws of physics asserts that humans and every other living, walking, running, jumping, crawling, flying or swimming creature and all man-made machines that move on wheels, tracks and legs, fly or hover with propellers, rotors, jets or rockets must have the inherent ability to thrust against a separate external resistant force in order to be able to physically move in a chosen direction.

No, actually, the laws of physics do not state this. They state that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. They do not state that there must be "a separate external resistant force in order to be able to physically move in a chosen direction."

How does a flat Earth digress into rockets supposedly not being able to work in space, anyway? Rockets clearly do work in space, and that has no bearing whatsoever on the shape of the Earth. It's a completely separate matter.

Ckljamas, there's a whole other thread devoted to rocket propulsion, perhaps you could add to that thread?

Dutchy, in the video, the two men are lying.

The backdrop is not identical in the two photos. The mountain shape on right bulges up slightly compared to on the left, and the shadowing is different. When superimposing, the mountains are similar, but not identical. The terrain in the foreground is also different between photos.
Their whole argument rests on the backgrounds being identical and they aren't. The photo on right is taken in front of lunar landing module, and closer to the mountain than in photo on the left, which explains all the differences.
As such, there is no end of set and no front projection involved in the photos. That's an assumption based on their bias.

Have a closer look.
It only adds to the confusion. The picture on the left has a mountain top with a slight downward ''arc'' from left to right, while in the picture on the right the opposite is true.
Furthermore the horizon is at a measly 2.43 km. The mountain seems to grow in the right picture.
I think they slightly changed the black sky line..that only makes sense as to why the top of the mountain is shape shifting all of a sudden.
Other than that it's identical.
Quote
Look closer and you will also see tracks behind the lunar rover. Remember, the tyres were made of aluminium mesh, wire, and titanium blocks, not rubber. Thus, the tracks left, are finer than tracks left by vehicles here on earth in sand.

The lunar rovers had cooling radiators for the batteries, and built to withstand moon temperature fluctuations of -328 degrees Fahrenheit to 392 degrees Fahrenheit. The batteries were kept within operating temperatures.
Silver oxide batteries have good performance characteristics at temperature extremes. They can be used up to 55°C(131°F)
Again the special ''moon condition'' despite abnormal temperatures well outside the operating window are the only explanation why the two silver-oxide batteries of the lunar rover kept working.
You don't have to repeat the official explaination.
But ain't that handy that despite extreme temperatures the ''moon conditions'' and ''no air molecules'' were such that the lunar rover could be easily powered by two silver-oxide batteries.
I guess the moon was really looking forward to our visit  ::)
Quote
Back to the starry moon sky argument again. Armstrong and Collins both say they didn't see stars on the Apollo 11 moon landing. Collins saw stars during the Gemini 7 spacewalk, so why are these pair of fools even comparing what they say about seeing stars?
Neil Armstrong EXCLUDED that he (or generally speaking anyone) saw (or could see) stars from the lunar surface, because quote : ''the sky is pitch black and other than the sun the earth is the ONLY visble object''.
Liars sometimes forget the exact propaganda about what they should see but didn't see when asked for...don't you understand ?

...thus, we falsify what you just said, because we are not using bowling balls but air, and we falsify the claim that all work is done before the gas exits, any questions??

Yes, lots. First off, why so down on bowling balls? Have you ever seen this non-bowling ball experiment?



Or check this out at about the 3:10 mark. Watch these non-NASA maniacs experiment with Newton's 3rd (why does the cannon roll back?):

Do you have an explanation how the operation continued while the survival operation temperature limit was 60 degrees celcius but 107 degrees exist on the moon? Your tears can not cool down the temperature.
Citation needed.
What makes you claim the survival operation temperature limit was 60 C?
How do you know the temperature where they were (not the moon in general, but there particular location) was 107 C or did you actually mean 107 F?

The laws of physics asserts that humans and every other living, walking, running, jumping, crawling, flying or swimming creature and all man-made machines that move on wheels, tracks and legs, fly or hover with propellers, rotors, jets or rockets must have the inherent ability to thrust against a separate external resistant force in order to be able to physically move in a chosen direction.
That highly depends upon what you mean by "separate external resistant force".
All you need is an object that is not you which you can exert a force on and have it apply a force back to you.
For a rocket, that is provided by the gas it generates, which ceases to be a part of it as it is expelled out the back of the rocket.

So no problem there.

Since space is, as we currently understand it, a vacuum with zero air pressure, the only way to make a rocket appear to be able to work in space would be to somehow demonstrate that, (unlike everything else on Earth), a rocket does not require the separate external resistant force of air pressure to thrust against.
You mean like sending a rocket into space and still having it work, like they have done plenty of times?
Glad we got that covered.

And again, it isn't unlike everything else.
The only pressure it needs to thrust against is the pressure of the gas inside the rocket.
Why do you repeatedly ignore that?


And the only way to do that would be to completely disregard the laws of physics, utilise a skewed version of Newton’s third law
You mean use the actual version of Newton's third law and accept that the gas expelled from the rocket is having a force applied to it by the rocket and thus it in turn provides a force to the rocket?

What you are saying is like saying the example provided where someone throws away a ball violates the laws of motion.
It is pure nonsense which doesn't describe physics at all.

There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).
Yes, just a like a rocket throwing away the exhaust.
There is no rationally denying that.

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).
You mean you were repeatedly refuted by providing a pure nonsense thought experiment which doesn't match reality at all and which you didn't even carry out properly.

Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
Yes, exactly as expected by mainstream physics.
He is applying a force to the ball to accelerate it, for the entire duration he is accelerating it.
While it does so it will apply the same force back to him.

It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
Yes, as it is repeatedly observed in any valid experiments, i.e. ones designed to allow the air to escape and act like a rocket rather than the dishonest garbage some people provide to pretend they can't work.

Even with your guy applying the vacuum cleaner, which is causing the air to push the car backwards, forwards movement was still observed.

.......let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!
The first body is the rocket. The second body is the exhaust gas.
(Or if you like, the individual particles that make it up).

If you figure that out, you”ll understand your mistake...   hopefully
No, we understand your  mistake.

You want to pretend the gas, which is completely separate from the rocket, is somehow magically still a part of the rocket and thus not a second body.
What you are saying is like claiming that in baseball the pitcher (engine) is the “first body”  applying force (expelled ball)  to a second body (batter) which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force on the first body (pitcher) forcing it to go backwards; such that if the batter misses, the pitcher wont feel anything, and be like he was just standing there, but if the batter hits it, the pitcher will feel like a bat just smashed into their hand.
It is pure fictional nonsense which does not match reality at all.
In reality, the pitcher applies the force to the ball, which applies a force back. The batter is irrelevant.
The only way the batter causes any force to be felt by the pitcher is if they hit the ball such that it then flies back into the pitcher.
The same applies to the rocket, where the pitcher is the rocket, and the ball is the gas.

The first body is the rocket. The second body is the gas.
No need for anything else.

COMBUSTION IS IMPOSSIBLE IN A VACUUM :
No, it is still quite possible, but some forms are very difficult or impossible.

THE CLEVER GUY RESPONDED : Everything you said in every reply is summarized in that passage. Your 'philosophy' is rubbish, and needs to be discarded. There is no half of an explosion etc that you postulate, complete and utter NONSENSE! when an explosion occurs in the nozzle the whole rocket explodes. You need to understand what CONTROLLED COMBUSTION means, it is directional and has a flame front, it does not explode out in all directions and half does one thing and the other half another. Even in car engines the same principle applies.
You mean the idiot then says pure garbage?
No one appealed to half an explosion. That is just your strawman to pretend there is a problem.
Sure, the analogy isn't perfect, but it works fairly well.
An explosion is a very quickly expanding region of gas.
That matches what happens with the rocket quite well.
An explosion will not necessarily cause the rocket to explode. Instead it just pushes outwards, meaning the rocket will be pushed in one direction by the gas.

The only thing giving controlled combustion direction is containment, e.g. the rocket. If it was not contained it would go in all directions.

BOWLING BALL VS AIR: rockets like jets push off air
For Jets, that is the air they suck in and then expel. For rockets that is the "air" that they generate from combustion.
What happens to the air after it leaves the engine/nozzle is irrelevant.
That still means rockets work in a vacuum.

All your nonsense can easily be refuted just by looking at the simple laws of physics.
You have the rocket in a vacuum.
It then starts expelling gas out of one orifice.
This demands a force acts on the gas to expel it out of that orifice, or else it would simply remain there. Note that gas can act upon itself (or more technically gas particles can act on other gas particles) but that would simply result in the gas expanding outwards in all directions, so that wont help.
The only object that can provide the force to this gas is the rocket.
The laws of motion thus demands that the gas provides a force acting on the rocket to move it as well.

Otherwise, you need to provide another source for this directional force felt by the gas.
And no, a vacuum does not provide force.

Yet you never seem to bother addressing what anyone says, and instead you just repeat the same refuted nonsense again and again. Why is that? Is it because you know you have no case?

Now how about you try to answer that very simple question:
What force acts on the gas to make it move in a particular direction when exiting the rocket and what body is providing this force?
Again, the only rational answer is that the rocket is providing a force to the gas to move it backwards due to the way it is partially contained.

It only adds to the confusion.
No, it doesn't add to the confusion at all.
The only source of confusion is people not understanding how perspective works and how the same object will appear different from different angles.
An extreme example of that is this "optical illusion" type setup:
(https://www.sciencealert.com/images/articles/processed/crazy-illusion_1024.jpg)
You cannot determine the shape of an object just from one view.

Your argument is based upon assuming a particular shape and then being upset that the view from a different direction doesn't match what you assumed.

Silver oxide batteries have good performance characteristics at temperature extremes. They can be used up to 55°C(131°F)
This applies to the temperature of the batteries, not the outside temperature.
Another similar example is the use of superconducting magnets which need operating temperatures in the liquid nitrogen or liquid helium range.
Yet these work in devices which are sitting in a normal air conditioned room.
They operate because they have cooling in the device to keep the temperature in the required range.

were such that the lunar rover could be easily powered by two silver-oxide batteries.
What is the problem with that?
Why do you think it couldn't be?

Neil Armstrong EXCLUDED that he (or generally speaking anyone) saw (or could see) stars from the lunar surface
So what?
Trying seeing tiny spots of light when you have a massively bright light shining in your face.
Your eyes will adjust for the brightness of the lunar surface/the sun/the bright Earth. That will make the much dimmer stars much harder to see.

An easy way to experience this is be out in bright daylight during the middle of the day and then go inside a poorly lit room (very poorly lit).
Initially you wont be able to see anything because of how dark the room is. But given time to adjust your eyes will adjust and you will be able to see inside the room just fine. It doesn't mean the objects in the room weren't there. It simply means that you couldn't see them.

Another good example is a phone screen in bright daylight. A dim screen can be quite difficult to see anything on, simply because it isn't bright enough. But take it into a dark room and give your eyes time to adjust and you can easily see it.

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)
There is nothing wrong with the skateboard starting to move before the ball has left his hand. That is simply conservation of momentum -- the ball is starting to have some momentum to the left, meaning the boy/skateboard has to have equal momentum to the right. If the boy held onto the ball once his arms were fully extended, both the ball and the skateboard would stop. If the boy then pulled the ball back like he pushed it away, the ball and skateboard would return to their original position (approximately because of friction loss).

NASA is not the fraud here, it is your understanding of high school physics that is the problem.

I'm not sure what the upper and lower 'survival' operation limits were (are), but a lot of thought, science and engineering went into creating gear to handle the extreme temperatures of the moon. I thought this was a pretty complete assessment (no magic):

"The first thing to know is that all trips on to the Moon’s surface were carefully planned for lunar dawn, to ensure the surface hadn’t had time to heat up fully to its daytime temperature. It is also important to think about how heat can be transferred to astronauts on the lunar surface.

There are three ways heat can transfer and only two are possible on the Moon. The first is radiation, both directly from the Sun and from the Sun’s reflection on the surface. The astronauts’ spacesuits were designed to reflect almost 90% of the light that reaches it, so very little heat would have transferred to the astronauts.

The second is by conduction from the direct contact their feet had with the surface. This is also an ineffective process as regolith on the lunar surface doesn’t conduct heat well and the astronauts’ boots were insulated, slowing down conduction even further. This shows that even though huge temperature variations occur on the Moon, lunar astronauts were never actually exposed to them."

Yes of course it does, but the car should have been coocking and all batteries with it within a relative short timeframe.

And i don’t believe how they handled the cooling properly, using change-of-phase wax thermal capacitor packages and reflective, upward-facing radiating surfaces.
It always sounds so plausible..... untill you understand that even when they went to most outlandish ‘worlds’ that it’s pretty easy to think of a ‘plausible’ way as to why their equipment did work in whatever place they want it to work.

Arnstrong claimed he could only see the earth and moon and this was presented as a general fact ‘the sky is pitchblack and other than the sun the earth is the only visible object’
It EXCLUDES the tiniest of faint stars, otherwise Armstrong SHOULD have included those.
It’s not about how hard something is to see, but about IF you could see them.
And during the Patrick Moore interview Armstrong simply forgets the full detailed NASA reality about standing on the lunar surface and gazing upwards and being able to see faint stars from time to time.

And when i would interview you, you would especcially refer to the faint objects, because that would be the exception in the room of total darkness.
Armstrong ? He doesn’t refer to the exception other than the bright objects earth and sun.
The rest is just dark.... really dark.
If he or generally speaking ‘other astronauts’ would have seen tiny faint stars , those would be the exception and really special in a pitch black surrounding.
First thing on Armstrong’s mind after mentioning the earth and sun.

Don’t you get it ?
It’s not a matter of intensity of starlight it’s about wether they are there as the exception in an otherwise pitch black lunar sky.
The extremely faint stars should be strongly engraved in the memory BECAUSE they were hard to see !!!! The sun and earth are irrelevant because they are the rule when standing on the lunar surface.
 Researching this whole Apollo hoax thing made me very aware of the smallest details, because totally unimportant and irrelevant matters at first are actually extremely telling.
This is one of them if you dare to give it some real second thoughts.

Do you have a credible citation?

The lack of heat conduction also meant that there was no combustion, and as a result this would prevent the operation of the rover and other vehicles.
No, the 2 are fundamentally different.
The lack of atmosphere meant no normal combustion (but it is still possible if you have your own oxidiser).
The rover was electric and didn't need combustion to work.

The sun has a temperature of millions of degrees and transmits it to us.
Good job showing very little understanding again.
The sun has a core temperature in the millions of degrees. By the time you get to the surface it is only a few thousand. By the time the radiation makes its way to Earth and has  Earth in equilibrium, you only have a few hundred K.
Notice the massive loss in each step?
Yes, the moon will radiate heat, but it will not be enough to significantly heat up the space suits, which are also radiating heat.

So your citation is a conspiracy nut that is happy to lie or blatantly misrepresent reality to pretend there is a problem.
Writing a source does not magically be a lie or mispresent anything, without a supportive argument proved by you. Otherwise, we have to accept all your writings are lie and mispresenting.
Do you have a credible citation?
Yes. You have been cooked like a chicken at 100 degrees.
No, the 2 are fundamentally different.
Yes. It is your mistake of fundamentals. Your mental problems does not magically make anything wrong, but makes yourself so.
The lack of atmosphere meant no normal combustion (but it is still possible if you have your own oxidiser).
Even for scuba diving, oxygen is enough for 1 hour. it is certain that the combustion environment required to move a spacecraft will require much more than that. even today we do not have this technology. but your fundamental perspective may make it possible. Please keep your lack fundamentalism to yourself.
The rover was electric and didn't need combustion to work.
Even electrik needs oxygen for work.
Good job showing very little understanding again.
You have even not show it.
The sun has a core temperature in the millions of degrees. By the time you get to the surface it is only a few thousand. By the time the radiation makes its way to Earth and has  Earth in equilibrium, you only have a few hundred K.
I can write it too. It does not magically become an argument.
Notice the massive loss in each step?
Nope. And you? You are talking like you have measured it, but I don't think you did it. You are reading from somewhere and writing here. You have not your own observations and your own thoughts.
Yes, the moon will radiate heat, but it will not be enough to significantly heat up the space suits, which are also radiating heat.
a spacecraft, such as chicken in the oven wrapped with aluminum foil to protect 100 degrees from the heat, no one but the mind of nasa. this is just, obviously, childish.
You I and other NASA workers are looking for excuses here.
Corrected for you.

Yes. You have been cooked like a chicken at 100 degrees.
So that's a no. No source indicating the temperature of the moon would be a problem.

Yes. It is your mistake of fundamentals.
Are you just going to continue this childish crap?
Why do you feel the need to attack basically everything, even things which FE would have no problem with?
Do you also claim that grass isn't green and that water is poison?

Conduction and oxygen are vastly different.

it is certain that the combustion environment required to move a spacecraft will require much more than that.
Which will be stored in the rocket. So no problem there.

Even electrik needs oxygen for work.
Pure garbage.
Batters rely upon electrochemical reactions, with many batteries not being compatible with air.
Take a charged lithium ion battery and break it open in the air and guess what happens? It bursts into flames.
They are often hermetically sealed to exclude the air.
They do not need oxygen at all.
The wires just transmit the electrical power, and again, have no reliance upon the air.
The motors rely upon electromagnetic induction and again have no reliance upon the air.

If you are going to assert that electrical vehicles need air to operate you will need vastly more than your baseless assertions.

Corrected for you.
Dishonestly changing what I said so it does not resemble the truth at all is not correcting. Grow up.

This is not an argument. Your saying No source indicating the temperature of the moon would be a problem does not magically convert problems to a none problem. Your astro'nots are still cooked at 100 degrees.
Are you just going to continue this childish crap?
"childish crap" is reported. You have not a right to insult me because you can not find enough argument. Obviously insulting isn't an argument. Stop to insult me by using support of your moderator slaves. This behave, ie your being has to insult proves that why the earth is flat. Because you angry globularists has not a chance but insulting after a while when you have cornered. I can't reply you with your language, because if I do it they ban me; but both we know that they can not ban you because of you are their patron, right? Be fair, grow up and stop to childish behaves or agree earth's being flat.
Why do you feel the need to attack basically everything, even things which FE would have no problem with?
Why do you feel yourself need to personnel attack by using our own moderation team support? I am not you. I have just tell my thoughts depend on evidences.
Do you also claim that grass isn't green and that water is poison?
I don't remember such a claim. Please remind me. I guess you need reset to your factory settings.
Conduction and oxygen are vastly different.
I guess we are talking on different things.
Which will be stored in the rocket. So no problem there.
Prove how much oxygen has been stored in what kind of containers. And prove that technology was really existed other than your magical dreamings.
Pure garbage.
Again, stop to insult me by using your moderation supporter slaves. Normally you do get warn for this type of talkings. But you are free to insult. Is it fair? I don't think so. Where is justice here? Your claiming something pure garbage does not magically them garbage but your own talkings. meanwhile it proves the earth is flat because you have cornered and started to insult.
Batters rely upon electrochemical reactions, with many batteries not being compatible with air.
again, oxygen is required to occur in the combustion event. if you used superior electromagnetic technology in your rockets, you should explain it instead of insulting.
Take a charged lithium ion battery and break it open in the air and guess what happens? It bursts into flames.
which explains the need for oxygen to turn into flames.
The motors rely upon electromagnetic induction and again have no reliance upon the air.
like I said before, I'm talking about rover. I don't think your moon rover is electrical. electric vehicles have just been discovered.
If you are going to assert that electrical vehicles need air to operate you will need vastly more than your baseless assertions.
Draw your moon rover's technical details worked in moon at 1969 other than magically your dreamings.
Dishonestly changing what I said so it does not resemble the truth at all is not correcting. Grow up.
You who have to grow up. Grow up and give up to write from GSM. Open your computer and use one account. It lets you draw shapes and proves you are not doing any dishonesty. Then it gives you a right to call me acting fair.

Hello. My user name here is RomP. I don't believe in a flat earth since it is counter to a) the generally held consensus and evidence that it's a sphere, b) the apparent real world practical issues if the earth wasn't a sphere, and c) the consistency in the all the evidence and experience in the earth being a sphere.

First, and with due respect, I really can not see how you think my response is proof that the earth is flat. All you've done is arrived at an erroneous logical conclusion.

Second, and to reiterate, rockets work in a vacuum. They do so every time. Your response to this seems to be the typical, we say "XXXX, you prove it wrong whilst we sit on our hands doing nothing practical back up our claim".

As you've pointed out, I'm new to the forum. But having lurked for a number of moths, some of my observations on the style of debate seems to be:

- FE claim made.
- Non FEer counters with generally accepted theories and evidence.
- FEer counters by a mixture of a) answering but by avoiding actually providing and answer, b) provides youtube or blog 'evidence' of dubious merit, c) requests evidence which has impractical and impossible thresholds and criteria, d) when evidence is presented waves it away due to wanting the 'next level criteria' to be met or stating it's false.
- And wash, rinse, repeat.

I tip my hat to those with patience for this.

Given that commercial enterprises and other nations are ramping up their space programmes, with the possible consequence that space travel could eventually become cheap enough for many to travel on a rocket, I should think the 'rockets don't work in a vacuum' theory will die down.

There'll still be the diehards though who won't accept this, much like those FErs who still don't accept the evidence of the distances and routes travelled by commercial airlines and ships as well as the charts etc., for the southern hemisphere.

Ckljamas, there's a whole other thread devoted to rocket propulsion, perhaps you could add to that thread?

Dutchy, in the video, the two men are lying.

The backdrop is not identical in the two photos. The mountain shape on right bulges up slightly compared to on the left, and the shadowing is different. When superimposing, the mountains are similar, but not identical. The terrain in the foreground is also different between photos.
Their whole argument rests on the backgrounds being identical and they aren't. The photo on right is taken in front of lunar landing module, and closer to the mountain than in photo on the left, which explains all the differences.
As such, there is no end of set and no front projection involved in the photos. That's an assumption based on their bias.

Have a closer look.
It only adds to the confusion. The picture on the left has a mountain top with a slight downward ''arc'' from left to right, while in the picture on the right the opposite is true.
Furthermore the horizon is at a measly 2.43 km. The mountain seems to grow in the right picture.
I think they slightly changed the black sky line..that only makes sense as to why the top of the mountain is shape shifting all of a sudden.
Other than that it's identical.

Haha!  Who’s making excuses now?

The claim intbe vidro was that the background was “absolutely identical”.  Now you say that they repainted the background to account for it being shot from a slightly different location.  Or maybe, it was just shot from a slightly different location?

They also say it looks like a front projection.  I’d be fascinated to see a demonstration of how to project a pitch black sky onto a reflective background in a room full of studio lights.  There’s a reason cinemas turn the lights off.

Look closer and you will also see tracks behind the lunar rover. Remember, the tyres were made of aluminium mesh, wire, and titanium blocks, not rubber. Thus, the tracks left, are finer than tracks left by vehicles here on earth in sand.

The lunar rovers had cooling radiators for the batteries, and built to withstand moon temperature fluctuations of -328 degrees Fahrenheit to 392 degrees Fahrenheit. The batteries were kept within operating temperatures.
Silver oxide batteries have good performance characteristics at temperature extremes. They can be used up to 55°C(131°F)
Again the special ''moon condition'' despite abnormal temperatures well outside the operating window are the only explanation why the two silver-oxide batteries of the lunar rover kept working.
You don't have to repeat the official explaination.
But ain't that handy that despite extreme temperatures the ''moon conditions'' and ''no air molecules'' were such that the lunar rover could be easily powered by two silver-oxide batteries.
I guess the moon was really looking forward to our visit  ::)

The battery wasn’t on the lunar surface, it was on the rover.  Do you know how difficult thermal management is to deal with a piddling 120 deg C conducted through the wheels, axis, chassis and whatever mounting the battery had?  Not even remotely. 

As an added bonus, the video even questions how they fit the rover in the Command module, LOL.

This video is an absolute joke.  Complete failure on technical parts, not even bothering to check where the rover was supposed to be stored before making ridiculous claims, and apparently being too blind to see the difference between two pictures.  All presented as “smoking guns”.

Hello mister new globularist.

Rockets can not work in a vacuum. Not only rockets, nothing work in a vacuum. in fact, what we call vacuum is a kind of black hole. it pulls everything around it and breaks it apart. it would only take a few seconds if space had actually been reached. claiming that the rocket works in space proves that you are completely ignorant of physics.

the rest of your claims are just as unfounded as the others, so it's not worth it for now. I recommend that you review the Q&A and believers section before you enter into discussions during your stay here. reading destroys ignorance, but we can't teach you to think.

0a. COMBUSTION IS IMPOSSIBLE IN A VACUUM :

0b. The air locks between the lunar rover and the outside, none. NONE!!! Fantasy the lot.

0c. Batteries are very heavy.. can you imagine the weight of a battery in 1965, big enough to run an air system for a week???????

0d. Lunar Rover problems : While watching this video pay attention to these problems as well :

A) When you look at footage from these lunar rovers, is that the dust behaves as if there is an atmosphere. It forms waves and is resisted by air and it falls back to the ground at the same speed. The dust from the wheelspin should propel 300 feet away.

B) It's a remote control small scale toy  car. 
   The driver NEVER STEERS the wheel.

C) Listen it : 29min 49sec in the video : I seriously doubt that spoiled little douchebag (Edgar Mitchell's son) was joking about having him whacked - anyone know if this dude still alive?


1. CGI are possible, however, they never presented them, since Neil Armstrong and especially Michael Collins have pointed out many times that they hadn't been able to see ANY stars from the moon, or from the lunar orbit.

However, Michael Collins wrote on page 221 of "Carrying the Fire" : "My God, the stars are everywhere: above me on all sides, even below me somewhat, down there next to that obscure horizon. The stars are bright and they are steady. Of course I know that a star's twinkle is created by the atmosphere, and I have seen twinkle-less stars before in a planetarium, but this is different, this is no simulation, this is the best view of the universe that a human ever had."?

See the last part of this video : APOLLO - HOAX OF THE CENTURY - part 3 : It's about Michael Collins contradicting himself : During famous Apollo 11 conference he claimed that he wasn't able to see *ANY* star from the lunar orbit...However in his book he claims that he was very able to observe countless stars from earth' orbit...How about that??? You see, this is an example where the same person asserts two totally contradictory claims (in two different occasions)...There is more to it (concerning Michael Collins) :

Michael Collins was designated the navigator for Apollo 11. In his book he lists the 37 navigation stars they were to use, plus their corresponding octal numbers which identified them to the computers. Here's how Michael explains that navigation package:

"The astronaut, peering out through either his telescope or his sextant finds one of the chosen few, superimposes a + on it, and pushes a button at the instant of perfect alignment. He then tells the computer which star it was, by numbers. Repeating this process on a second star allows the computer and the platform to determine which way the spacecraft is pointing. So we now know which way is up? Well, not exactly, because "up" is a rather fragile concept meaning away from the center of the earth, a direction opposite the gravity vector used to clutch us tightly by. But suppose we cannot even see the earth in our window, suppose we are floating free of earth's gravity. What now, M.I.T.? Back to our friendly stars. We simply define a new up-down and left-right, using the stars in place of earth. All will be well as long as we all play the game by the same rules, as long as the ground controllers send us instructions using the same stellar frame of reference. Now we are free of all terrestrial conventions and can correct our course to and from the Moon by pointing in the proper direction relative to the stars."

Someone could say that there is the difference : Michael Collins was able to see the stars by naked eyes from earth's orbit (Gemini), but he wasn't able to see *ANY* star from the lunar orbit...And if someone attempted to claim such a ridiculous claim, then he would have to be able to explain to us this : what would disable Michael Collins to see the stars from the lunar orbit? If there was anything that could obscure the stars while he was in lunar orbit, that very same reason (an obstacle) would disable him to see the stars TO EVEN A GREATER EXTENT while he was in earth's orbit since according to NeilDeGrass Tyson the only reason why we can't see the stars from the earth (during the day) is the presence of earth's atmosphere which is a glow with scattered light from the sun!!! If you take away the atmosphere, the sun will still be there but the sky goes dark! That is what folks get when they get to the edge of the atmosphere, the atmosphere is no longer between you and the rest of the universe and the stars would reveal themselves just as they would at night! Plain and simple!!!

2. YOU ONLY NEED TO PROVE ONE OF THEM TO BE THE SAME PERSON TO PROVE THE THEORY : LUNACY - PART 2 :

3. When the first crew who landed on the moon did a world tour ,they presented the Dutch premier with a piece of moon rock ,,,when he died a few years ago the university of Utrecht in Holland did some experiments on what they thought was moon rock ,,and it was found to be worthless petrified wood ,,?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/space/6105902/Moon-rock-given-to-Holland-by-Neil-Armstrong-and-Buzz-Aldrin-is-fake.html

5. Set of excerpts of "docking" : You must be a genuine idiot so to be unable to recognize obvious fakery in this cheap animation : once again : 100% proof moon landing Hoax in a 1 minute clip :

6. In 60 years of all of NASA or any other organizations outer space video footage... there does not exist a single video clip of someone panning the camera 360 degrees!!! HOW COME???

7. Why Are There No Real Photos of The Complete Earth? = NASA has never been into space far enough from the Earth to get the whole planet in the frame.

8. How could they survive the radiation and high temperature, WITH THAT SUITE. i think that a bunch of fan could never handle that, cause that (include all things on back pack) will broken and become unusable on such a hot temperatures...Just how... is it calculated to know the temperature on the moon? Being the moon is some 1/4 million miles away? The temps calculated for the earth are not always accurate, let-alone to tell us the temps on the moons surface are such. Are they shooting a beam to the moon such as one checking the temp of his steak on the grill? A 1/4 million miles away. Forgive—a thermometer was stuck in the soil upon arrival.

Now let's see why we should take with a grain of salt official (NASA) "data" regarding the temperature of/on the surface of the moon :

In the "Lancet" (Medical Journal), for March 14th, 1856, particulars are given of several experiments which proved that the moon's rays when concentrated, actually reduced the temperature upon a thermometer more than eight degrees.

"The light of the moon, though concentrated by the most powerful burning-glass, is incapable of raising the temperature of the most delicate thermometer. M. De la Hire collected the rays of the full moon when on the meridian, by means of a burning-glass 35 inches in diameter, and made them fall on the bulb of a delicate air-thermometer. No effect was produced though the lunar rays by this glass were concentrated 300 times.

Professor Forbes concentrated the moon's light by a lens 30 inches in diameter, its focal distance being about 41 inches, and having a power of concentration exceeding 6000 times. The image of the moon, which was only 18 hours past full, and less than two hours from the meridian, was brilliantly thrown by this lens on the extremity of a commodious thermopile. Although the observations were made in the most unexceptional manner, and (supposing that half the rays were reflected, dispersed and absorbed), though the light of the moon was concentrated 3000 times, not the slightest thermo effect was produced."

9. All NASA missions were and are faked. A total fraud. NASA has extorted trillions of dollars since their formation. What a sham!

10. NASA : "The simulator provided 5/6-g thrust (83 % of the propulsion) to simulate the amount of thrust that the rocket engine would need to lift the craft while flying down to the surface of the moon."

This would be using 83 % of earth's propulsion requirements to adjust for an environment with only 17 % of the earth's gravity???????????????? Explanations such as this certainly drive home the point that no matter how convoluted they will always have rationalization (no matter how stupid) for everything!!!<<<

So, since the gravitational force is 6 times stronger on the earth than on the moon, shouldn't then simulator provide 600 % of the propulsion (instead of 83 %) to simulate the amount of thrust that the rocket engine would need to lift the craft while flying down to the surface of the moon???

A BAD ATTEMPT AT RESPONDING TO THIS PROBLEM :

No. The LLRV (flown on Earth) cut the load of the craft to 1/6th (simulating lunar gravity) by lifting 5/6th of the load with a jet engine, leaving 1/6th of the load to be carried by the rocket engine.?

WHY IS THIS A BAD RESPOND :

By cutting the load of the craft to 1/6th you don't cut 1/6th of the whole weight of the craft, you would still have to increase the amount of thrust instead of decreasing it...

11. They can't find any of the footage or telemetry info regarding one of humankind's greatest ever achievements, if not it's greatest, and they don't even know where to look? FFS. Game up. Proof positive.

12. Very interesting comment left by one of my viewers :

You know, as a retired advanced sport scuba diver, myself nor any of my diving buddies ever sacrificed our equipment underwater at any depth in any which way in regards to safety in a possible serious risk of damaging our life support system!  Now what kind of and IDIOTIC FOOL would be taking chances in an environment like ( coff coffff ) so-called space where you risk an INSTANT VIOLENT DEATH if your life support system failed in a compromising manner?  Huh?  You'd think these drunkin' freemansonic clowns are actors-on-a-stage!   I call this:  ( ( (  FIRST CLASS BS  ) ) )

14. *The money the money the money.*  Project Apollo was the source of money for the cost of the Vietnam War and CIA black ops all over the world.  The cost of the SR71, F15,F16,F14 the XB70 Valkyrie project the B1B project, the Corona spy satellites that were replaced by newer spy satellites,  replacing the fleet of WWII Essex class aircraft carriers with the Nimitz class nuclear super carriers,  the entire fleet of nuclear submarines, replace the M48 and M60 tanks with the M1A1 battle tank, the Bradley fighting vehicle project to replace the M113 APC. But the old M113 in an upgraded from is still in service, a all services rifle the M16, replaced the BAR with the M60 light machine gun, that was replaced by the M249 SAW anti missile missile systems. The space program was always a military project first and a large number of space missions were a cover for covert spy missions and Apollo was no exception the Pentagon budget just became so large with the short list of projects I have given along with the space shuttle another military project we were stuck in low earth orbit. As we tried to move to man missions to Mars we have had 3 more wars more high tech  weapons systems,  Reagan's star wars projects.  We pay as much on military budgets as the next 10 countries and Trump and Congress wants to spend a lot more on the military. If we cut the Pentagon budget by 15-20% we would still be out spending every other country in the world.

The last paragraph explains the main reason for faking other moon missions (China's, India's, Russian's)!!!

@wise: I just wanted to comment on one of your statements upthread: You said that electric vehicles did not exist in 1969 and have "just been discovered." In case you were not aware, the very first automobiles were electric. Before efficient combustion engines were invented. Once gasoline engines became cheap enough and efficient enough, the early car makers stopped making electric cars because gasoline was very cheap and the batteries for electric cars were not very good. But electric cars did exist. Also, golf carts existed and many, if not most, of them were electric. Golfers were using electric golf carts long before Apollo. I even owned a toy electric train set before Apollo, and an electric car or rover is just a much bigger version of that, with batteries.

Also, we've had electric motors for many decades. Fans and water pumps and many other things run on electric motors. All the technology to build an electric rover existed in the 1960's. Batteries were not as good as the ones we have in today's electric cars, but they were good enough for the purpose. And they don't need oxygen.

I'll tell you what had not been invented yet in 1969: Technology good enough to fake the live TV transmission! It could be faked pretty well today, and science fiction shows do that kind of thing all the time. But not way back then.

I don't understand why some flat-Earthers think we couldn't have gone to the moon. Going to the moon does not disprove the flatness of the Earth.

As for the question of heat, here's a thought experiment: Imagine putting your hand in water that's 100 C. You would be burned horribly. But you can sit for five or ten minutes in a dry sauna that's 100 C. This is because water is more dense and therefore holds more heat than air at the same temperature. So heat passes from water to your hand very rapidly, but passes into your body from air at the same temperature very slowly. On the moon there is no atmosphere, so the heat passes to the astronauts' space suites even more slowly, and those suites are insulated, slowing the heat even more. Just like a firefighter who can walk into the intense heat of a burning building wearing insulated firefighting gear and an oxygen tank, the astronauts can walk out into the high temperature but zero density of the moon wearing their space suits and oxygen tank.

Ckljamas, there's a whole other thread devoted to rocket propulsion, perhaps you could add to that thread?

Dutchy, in the video, the two men are lying.

The backdrop is not identical in the two photos. The mountain shape on right bulges up slightly compared to on the left, and the shadowing is different. When superimposing, the mountains are similar, but not identical. The terrain in the foreground is also different between photos.
Their whole argument rests on the backgrounds being identical and they aren't. The photo on right is taken in front of lunar landing module, and closer to the mountain than in photo on the left, which explains all the differences.
As such, there is no end of set and no front projection involved in the photos. That's an assumption based on their bias.

Have a closer look.
It only adds to the confusion. The picture on the left has a mountain top with a slight downward ''arc'' from left to right, while in the picture on the right the opposite is true.
Furthermore the horizon is at a measly 2.43 km. The mountain seems to grow in the right picture.
I think they slightly changed the black sky line..that only makes sense as to why the top of the mountain is shape shifting all of a sudden.
Other than that it's identical.
Quote
Look closer and you will also see tracks behind the lunar rover. Remember, the tyres were made of aluminium mesh, wire, and titanium blocks, not rubber. Thus, the tracks left, are finer than tracks left by vehicles here on earth in sand.

The lunar rovers had cooling radiators for the batteries, and built to withstand moon temperature fluctuations of -328 degrees Fahrenheit to 392 degrees Fahrenheit. The batteries were kept within operating temperatures.
Silver oxide batteries have good performance characteristics at temperature extremes. They can be used up to 55°C(131°F)
Again the special ''moon condition'' despite abnormal temperatures well outside the operating window are the only explanation why the two silver-oxide batteries of the lunar rover kept working.
You don't have to repeat the official explaination.
But ain't that handy that despite extreme temperatures the ''moon conditions'' and ''no air molecules'' were such that the lunar rover could be easily powered by two silver-oxide batteries.
I guess the moon was really looking forward to our visit  ::)
Quote
Back to the starry moon sky argument again. Armstrong and Collins both say they didn't see stars on the Apollo 11 moon landing. Collins saw stars during the Gemini 7 spacewalk, so why are these pair of fools even comparing what they say about seeing stars?
Neil Armstrong EXCLUDED that he (or generally speaking anyone) saw (or could see) stars from the lunar surface, because quote : ''the sky is pitch black and other than the sun the earth is the ONLY visble object''.
Liars sometimes forget the exact propaganda about what they should see but didn't see when asked for...don't you understand ?

Dutchy, dutchy, dutchy. The two men in the video are a pair of hucksters. The background mountain in the two photos are not identical, which means it's not a backdrop, which means it's likely an actual mountain photographed from two different locations. Fancy that, just like the astronauts said.  Location 1 with the lunar lander in front, and location 2 in front of the lunar lander, making the mountain appear to grow higher because you're closer to it. It's not that difficult to understand.

The temperature around the batteries was regulated by cooling.

The stars being seen by the astronauts is such a big concern to you. Any chance the stars weren't seen in the same way we can't see stars here on earth in the daytime, due to the sunlight from the sun? The only reason we see a blue sky during the day here on earth, is because of our atmosphere. Plus, the regolith on the moon, reflected a lot of sunlight. Collins when he did his spacewalk, wasn't standing on the moon surrounded by reflected sunlight, was he?

Do you realise how much you are contradicting yourself?

On the one hand, rockets can’t work in a vacuum, on the other you accept that spy satellites eventually replaced spy planes?

You’re absolutely right that the Apollo program was largely about developing technology that had military applications.  I don’t think Apollo was involved in actual spying, but developing the technology to launch spy satellites was certainly a big part of the agenda, along with communication, navigation and launch detection satellites. And of course improving rocket and guidance technology for ICBMs.

Far from being a reason to think the moon landings were fake, I regard this as a strong argument for why the US government poured money into it.  They would never have been happy with just telling the public this technology existed, they wanted it for real.

Few more very interesting comments left by my viewers below various APOLLO HOAX videos :

One lie leads to another lie and another until you finally forget what you originally said , hearing these assholenauts is exactly what is happening!

None of these heathens can get the story straight. The problem with telling a lie is that you have to remember the lie to keep it going.

And those footprints are fake as fuck. Footprints like that ONLY occur in WET sand, like on the wet beach line. Also these footprints are so huge and deep. Moon's gravity is 1/6 of earths gravity, they weigh only 20 kg on the moon, and not 200 kg like in the pictures.

Not to mentioned the kinetic energy are the same as on earth. While the gravity pull is different. That is how You will see the scam.
That means You should jump higher than You were just 1/6 as heavy?

I think the real question is why did they even "go" to the moon?  You would think that they would make a full documentary and record every moment while they were up there on the surface showing them doing some actual research or exploration but they only have videos of them driving in circles for no reason.  People make documentaries here on earth exploring jungles and what not all the time you would think that they would record everything as they ventured to a place no one has ever been to. We send men to another body in our solar system for the first time and what do they concentrate their camera on? the spaceship they flew in from earth. Doesn't that strike you as odd? It would be like sending the Rover to Mars with a camera that just points backwards at the Rover.

In an atmosphere that can KILL you, these guys sure did a LOT of shit that could damage their suits. Could have flipped that rover, got hurt, put a hole in the suit, Wtf ? If I am on the moon, no help to be found I would NOT be joy riding and falling in the ground with rocks all over the place, FAKE

If I fell over on the moon on those small rocks I'd shit myself and check my suit. not NASA, let's practice bouncing on our hands and knees more!

When a team wins the stupid super bowl they parade the players every day for a week and every news outlet asking all of them how does it feel and shit like that and yet these people went to the moon and played golf on it and drove 4wheel dune buggy and yet no hard questioning by random news guy of these people as how was it on the moon ,that alone always bugged me the reclusiveness of the astraunots as though they turned into some kind of a freak like Fantastic four characters.

The internet blew nasas bullshit out of the water. In 1969 they had not planned that. Todays excuses are we lost everything.

Both my parents have worked at NASA for 20+ years. I grew up in kemah, TX. They always stirred away when I asked them about things like this. My Dad always said " quit being a conspiracy theorist " my mom always looked at me like she felt bad for lying to me. They provided me with a great life, great opportunities. But at what expense?

'It's okay if you know it'' you heard it folks,this astronut tells you right on video, he didn't go and he doesn't care that you know it, because he will lie and lie to everyone and its because the liberal mind has no empathy or morals, none at all,just like actors,same exact thing..and when confronted about the lies, they get violent, that is always the last resort..

I crack  up sometimes while watching these evaluations as I suddenly realize how the "brains" behind the moon fake could never have anticipated the way we can scrutinize and study these clips. Further, it must be painful for any living astronauts to see their lies repeated in endless loops on youtube. Their fakery shall live in infamy. lol and God help me, but Buzz is just sooo campy. I never tire of his shenanigans, esp the latest while Trump was speaking. Do you think Trump was trolling Buzz? I like to think so!

The specific thing that lead me to entertain that it's all a hoax is that when I would watch atronots being interviewed on tv; what immediately struck me;was that they didn't look or sound intelligent. But as my mind would be telling me something doesn't add up;it's as if another message immediately started playing about how asteonots are the "creme of the crop", highly educated, intelligent, carefully selected" So my initial instinct would be over ridden by that brainwashed thought, and I would continue watching the interviews.

What is funny to me is that grown 40 year old men and women look back at the movies they watch in the movies when they were little and laugh now of how fake they look now as much as they looked so real when they were little. But those same people look at footage of a film that was made 15 or 20 years before they were even conceived and swear on their children that it is a real event and indeed took place on the surface of the moon.

If some robot like Jesus would walk on the Moon in sandals, wrapped in bed shit and NASA would say that was Jesus,  I am sure millions would believe it.

I'm loving this series of videos! I too can't figure out how the thousands and thousands of experts in the fields involved wouldn't have caught on to the many oddities that they were seeing. As someone with a liberal arts degree and who knows absolutely nothing about any type of science or math, I can understand why I was fooled. Add ten years of tv programming to that and you've got a sucker. I wasn't the only one in this situation by a long shot. What really gets me though, are the millions of people who now have proof right before their eyes that the moon landings and everything else that comes out of NASA is pure baloney. They are absolutely determined to believe it all and to defend NASA until their last breath. This is one of the very rare occasions in which I can thank heavens for YouTube. Many thanks for the great videos!!!?

Excelent post, please continue about the footprints etc. the more obvious the fakery the more outlandish the ‘moonish’ conditions.
And no one claiming those magic conditions came closer than 340.000 km of the moon.

I think the most obvious of the whole fakery is those moon conditions.
Extreme and all, but our weak batteries, limited air conditioning, delicate film, even more delicate human tissue could successfully cope with the most extreme conditions ever by a huge margin.
Like i said ‘the moon was really looking forward to our visit and paved the way’.
And those defending the whole saga do so from 340.000 km away as if they were there in 1969.

Fancy that, just like the astronauts said.  Location 1 with the lunar lander in front, and location 2 in front of the lunar lander, making the mountain appear to grow higher because you're closer to it. It's not that difficult to understand.

Yes, that is your baseless claim that you are yet to back up in any way.
Repeating the same assertion wont make it true.

Where is your evidence?

Meanwhile conventional physics easily shows that rockets will work in a vacuum and in order to have them not work would require violation of physical laws.

but we can't teach you to think.
Yes, you would have to be able to think yourself to do that.

jamas, I notice you still don't respond to a very simple question which clearly shows that rockets do work in a vacuum.
Why is this?
Can't think of a way to troll your way out of it?

0a. COMBUSTION IS IMPOSSIBLE IN A VACUUM
Citation needed.
Providing a single example of a single type of combustion not working does not show no combustion can.
Try it with a rocket.

A) When you look at footage from these lunar rovers, is that the dust behaves as if there is an atmosphere. It forms waves and is resisted by air and it falls back to the ground at the same speed. The dust from the wheelspin should propel 300 feet away.
No, it shows you don't understand dust, or are dishonestly presenting it.
The dust is being thrown up by the wheels. There is no indication of any interaction with an atmosphere, which would make the dust linger for quite a while.

Care to back up your claim that the dust from wheelspin should propel 300 feet away?
Or is that just your usual pull a number from thin air BS?

The driver NEVER STEERS the wheel.
You mean you don't understand how control systems work and think all vehicles need to be steered with wheels.
How about you try to learn how it was actually controlled.
Then provide a video which focuses on them turning around. I notice you seem to cut that bit out.

CGI are possible
Not to the level required at that time.

Michael Collins have pointed out many times that they hadn't been able to see ANY stars from the moon, or from the lunar orbit.
Where?

2. YOU ONLY NEED TO PROVE ONE OF THEM TO BE THE SAME PERSON TO PROVE THE THEORY
And it seems you have gone off into your spam land again. So I will skip the rest.

Now care to answer the very simple question yet?

What force acts on the gas to make it move in a particular direction when exiting the rocket and what body is providing this force?
Again, the only rational answer is that the rocket is providing a force to the gas to move it backwards due to the way it is partially contained.
That means rockets would work in a vacuum.

Going to the moon does not disprove the flatness of the Earth.
It destroys the common FE model.
They have the moon being a tiny rock, something like 50 km wide. Nothing like what was transmitted back to Earth from Apollo.
Perhaps more importantly, they need to reject all of NASA as fake, as if they accept NASA can go to space and so on, then they have to explain how satellites orbit a FE, which makes no sense and instead indicates Earth is round, and all the footage provided off a RE, either live footage, videos or pictures.

Uh a poster named ‘unconvinced’ at page 2 claimed quote: ‘You cannot determine the shape of an object just from one view.’
No, I did. But I don't see how that is relevant in any way.
It isn't like we only have a single picture of Earth from space instead of the countless photos from many different directions, all of which show Earth to be roughly circular.
That does provide enough information to determine the shape of an object.
Do you know what shape appears as a circle from any direction? A sphere.

And no one claiming those magic conditions came closer than 340.000 km of the moon.
And those defending the whole saga do so from 340.000 km away as if they were there in 1969.
Well there goes FE with its mere 5000 km away moon.

I am very aware how the different types of perspective work and able to perfectly execute it on a canvas.
But can you work backwards?
Some people really struggle with that.

If you would like to, please draw a side on, orthographic projection of the examples I provided Earlier, without just cheating.
Can you work out what shape they have to be?

It totally depends on the object....
If that were true the first ‘blue marble’ a single shot from earth was not enough for you to accept the earth to be a sphere
No, it doesn't depend on the object at all.
A single view of an unknown object will not allow you to determine its shape.

The first blue marble shot of Earth was not enough to determine the shape of Earth, but there was already mountains of evidence to show Earth was and is a roughly spherical object. Since then plenty more images have been taking from a multitude of different angles.

So your strawmanning is quite out of place.

And you did not comment on the ‘growing mountain on the right’
What growing mountain?

You seem to be comparing it to the size of the LM and completely ignoring how perspective works.
Also, just to make sure, you are aware they are parts of an assembled panorama, not a single image?

Yes of course it does, but the car should have been coocking and all batteries with it within a relative short timeframe.
Why?

And i don’t believe how they handled the cooling properly, using change-of-phase wax thermal capacitor packages and reflective, upward-facing radiating surfaces.
Then demonstrate that it doesn't work.
So far all we have is your claim that it shouldn't work.
I take it you also reject cooling using heat pipes like used on laptops and some CPU cooling assemblies?

That’s the power of scientific jargon..... that’s why startrek was such a success.
No, the "scientific jargon" used in startrek is complete crap.

You could not possibly know.
No, I could know quite easily, because I actually understand how our eyes will adjust to the environment, changing how bright an object needs to be in order for us to see it.
This is obvious.

If you were standing on the illuminated surface of the moon with all that light shining in your face, you would not see the stars.

Somehow you are continiously avoiding the obvious.
No, the obvious is what I stated above. You would not see the stars.
It is only if you managed to exclude the light from the sun and moon and gave your eyes time to adjust that you would be able to see the stars.

The extremely faint stars should be strongly engraved in the memory BECAUSE they were hard to see
No, they wouldn't be, as they would be used to seeing the stars on Earth at night.
The pitch black sky would be what is strongly engraved in the memory because of just how unusual that is.
On Earth we typically see one of 2 skies (ignoring the clouds and sunrise/sunset)
A bright blue sky, with an even brighter sun, or a dark sky illuminated with many points of light in the form of stars.
Seeing a black sky without stars is what would be memorable.
However that would be less so today with all the light pollution.

Dutchy, dutchy, dutchy. The two men in the video are a pair of hucksters. The background mountain in the two photos are not identical, which means it's not a backdrop, which means it's likely an actual mountain photographed from two different locations. Fancy that, just like the astronauts said.  Location 1 with the lunar lander in front, and location 2 in front of the lunar lander, making the mountain appear to grow higher because you're closer to it. It's not that difficult to understand.
It's the opposite....magic moon conditions again ? Or camera specialties when moon conditions don't cut it ? ;D ;D

0a. COMBUSTION IS IMPOSSIBLE IN A VACUUM:

Quote from: cikljamas
0b. The airlocks between the lunar rover and the outside, none. NONE!!! Fantasy the lot.
Why should there be any "airlocks between the lunar rover and the outside"?
The lunar rover is only driven by astronauts wearing spacesuits (Extravehicular Mobility Units) so why would airlocks be needed?

You possibly mean the Lunar Module (LM) and not the Lunar Rover. If this if the case there were no airlocks simply to save weight.
When entering the LM from the CM the airlock is part of the CM (one hatch on the CM and one on the LM).
On the surface, the LM was depressurised before exit and repressurised after re-entry.
The LM atmosphere was pure oxygen atmosphere at only 5 psi, about one-third the pressure of the air.

So you, cikljamas, might not be able to understand these simple issues but that in no way proves it is "Fantasy the lot" it just proves that you are too lazy to investigate and understand it!

Here is the fully assembled panorama:

The main images used all start with AS17-147-, and then there is 22493 through to 22495 and 22517 through to 22520.
For the other they all start with AS17-134- and then go 22437 through to 22446.

The strange part is the 2 are labelled in significantly different ways.
The close shot is labelled based upon magazine number and the number of the first picture.
The far one is labelled based upon the time.
Why?

Perhaps the best comparison would be comparing AS17-134-20441 with AS17-147-22518.
This shows they are quite similar, but definitely a 3D object taken from different angles.

But the inside of the combustion chamber of a rocket engine is not a vacuum. By definition, there will be no combustion in a vacuum because in a vacuum there's nothing to burn. But squirt some fuel and oxidizer into the chamber and voila! it's no longer a vacuum.

It destroys the common FE model.

Yes. The common model is flawed. We need an uncommon model. I admit to being disappointed in those FEers who are so inflexible in their model that they are forced to invent silly conspiracy theories to back up their flawed model, rather than revising the model to be more in line with reality.

Notably, the duration of a conspiracy is inversely related to the number of people involved. A conspiracy of five people, if they are careful and lucky, can be maintained for a few years. A conspiracy of a hundred people might last a few weeks or a month. A conspiracy of a thousand people will fall apart within a day. And a conspiracy of ten thousand people won't last for five minutes. There's no way that all the world's governments and space agencies, or even just NASA, could maintain a conspiracy overnight.

I'm not going to get into the old fruitless argument, but a correct model of FE must be one that does not stand upon a belief in a massive conspiracy. The common model fails this test. An uncommon model is needed.

Yes. The common model is flawed. We need an uncommon model. I admit to being disappointed in those FEers who are so inflexible in their model that they are forced to invent silly conspiracy theories to back up their flawed model, rather than revising the model to be more in line with reality.
The problem is that the only way to make it consistent with reality is to make Earth round, or to manipulate reality to such an extent that reality is pretending Earth is round. (But then Gaussian curvature gets in the way and Says Earth is round anyway).
All the FE models have some massive issues. Other FE models can address them while introducing their own issues.

The moon is one simple example of such a massive issue.

It is well know that the moon, just like the sun, is observed at different times in different locations. It also appears in a different apparent direction.
This one aspect (other than the exact direction being wrong) works with the common FE model, and has the moon being tiny, preventing people landing on it.
However it is also observed that it remains basically the same size and the same view is presented (ignoring the phases). That goes directly against the common FE model.
In order to have this aspect match you need to have the moon very far away such that its motion over the course of a day doesn't significantly change the distance and the movement across Earth doesn't change the direction you are looking at it. This then allows a nice distant moon and allows it to be roughly the same apparent size and the same side. But that introduces the problem of it not being in the same direction and it appearing at different times in different locations.
The sane way to solve both is to keep the moon far away and large, and then have the different directions and times be a result of Earth being round such that different side of Earth faces the moon.
That solves the problem of the moon, without introducing more.

So we don't need an uncommon FE model. We need a RE model.

You shouldn't be trying to get a correct FE model, as that starts with the assumption that Earth is flat. What you should be trying to get is a correct Earth model, which would allow Earth to be any shape.

Yeah, I know, it's quite the conundrum for me. I kind of think there are two camps: Those making the evidence and those feeding on and spreading the evidence. Within which are probably many camps. Not to say that all contrary viewpoints, investigations, deep divings, etc, are not warranted. In fact welcomed. But it's just when I see stuff like this where it's manufactured to bait. (I actually sound like a skepti diatribe, but in reverse - So let me reverse that and clarify)

In this particular case, I see a lot manipulation, omission, heavy editing, and this instance being a prime example: Absolute disregard for factual documentation/photographic evidence and a meme making juggernaut to sate a rabid conspiratorial appetite. And the likes of our good friend and foe, Dutchy, getting rope-a-doped into it when he may actually have some salient points to make. All of which takes the oxygen out of what points he may have.
We are all privy and subject to our own biases. But we really need to separate the wheat from the chaff. And in this instance, it's all chaff.

Envision a proper rotated  LEM from one picture to the other.   How many degrees would that be ?
No way the background could possible match.
We still see the same parts of the LEM in both pictures so our rotation has a certain limitation.. just need to rotate the hypthetical background to match the view.

With any amount of creativity the changing background is utterly impossible.

If so please enlighten me .

From my admittedly amateur experiences in photography IMO those differences are just due to camera lens settings.
If you use a wide angle lens you get a completely different picture from one taken with a telephoto lens.
Possibly those pictures were taken with a camera with a " zoom lens ".
You can "zoom in " with the telephoto setting for a close up of a distant mountain or hill for example.
Then you could " zoom out " for a wide angle setting to get a picture of a wider view of the surroundings.
I have taken a lot of pictures at Grand Canyon and have " zoomed in and out" of them when taking pictures from the same location.

If the question is in reference to differences in  the photos I don't see any thing suspicious about them.

All the FE models have some massive issues.

Which is why I don't have a model. People invent a model, or hitch a ride on someone else's model, and when that model doesn't work they either have to admit they're wrong, or paint themselves into a corner trying to defend it. It's really much easier not to have a model. That way there's nothing that needs defending.

This whole moon thing is a great example of this: If your FE model says the moon is, say, one mile across and 20 miles up, then you have to argue the moon landings never happened, when you'd have to have a screw loose to believe that. But there's no reason why a FE would demand the moon to be one mile across and 20 miles high. Or that other thread where some FEers are claiming rockets can't work in space. There's no reason why a FE would mean that rockets couldn't work in space. But they've hitched themselves to a FE model that doesn't work if we sent men to the moon, so they have to claim we didn't, and denying that rockets work in space is just one more rickety leg they've built under their model.

No, it's better not to have a model.

I call on all my fellow flat-Earthers to discard all models. None of them work and none of them is necessary. We can have a flat Earth just because we say so. We're in the minority now, but politics has seen some dramatic reversals and we could be in the majority one day. But all these defective models hurt our cause, because ordinary people can see the flaws in them. It's only by discarding all models that we can unify our movement and spread our message.

Then the mountain top will shapeshift on the offical NASA pictures.
If you claim another angle which i agree the mountaintopn changes dramatically.

I've been looking a bunch of A17 images trying to see what matches what and what doesn't match what. The angles are all over the place so it's hard to cohesively string things together. So I get why people would be like, "Hey, that doesn't really match..." etc. But I'm trying to do the work to see how it all fits together. Personally, I loathe the slapdash meme thing where it seems, in this case, images are manipulated to "make a case". I much prefer the naked truth.
Envision a proper rotated  LEM from one picture to the other.   How many degrees would that be ?
No way the background could possible match.
We still see the same parts of the LEM in both pictures so our rotation has a certain limitation.. just need to rotate the hypthetical background to match the view.

With any amount of creativity the changing background is utterly impossible.

If so please enlighten me .

I get it, there's just lots to consider and I'm not willing to pass judgement on 5 photos, let alone 3 of which that came from a deliberately altered meme. So I'm doing the work. There are lenses to consider for one. I'm a shooter in the biz, production and post, as it were, still and video. No expert on moon imaging, but there is a thing called lens compression that can really alter the foreground v background perspective. I'm not saying this is the case, but worth examining before passing judgement one way or the other. Here's a famous version of the effect:

So let me do the due diligence, objectively, as I have never seen this particular 'discrepancy' before and it's worth a look.

All the FE models have some massive issues.

Which is why I don't have a model. People invent a model, or hitch a ride on someone else's model, and when that model doesn't work they either have to admit they're wrong, or paint themselves into a corner trying to defend it. It's really much easier not to have a model. That way there's nothing that needs defending.

This whole moon thing is a great example of this: If your FE model says the moon is, say, one mile across and 20 miles up, then you have to argue the moon landings never happened, when you'd have to have a screw loose to believe that. But there's no reason why a FE would demand the moon to be one mile across and 20 miles high. Or that other thread where some FEers are claiming rockets can't work in space. There's no reason why a FE would mean that rockets couldn't work in space. But they've hitched themselves to a FE model that doesn't work if we sent men to the moon, so they have to claim we didn't, and denying that rockets work in space is just one more rickety leg they've built under their model.

No, it's better not to have a model.

I call on all my fellow flat-Earthers to discard all models. None of them work and none of them is necessary. We can have a flat Earth just because we say so. We're in the minority now, but politics has seen some dramatic reversals and we could be in the majority one day. But all these defective models hurt our cause, because ordinary people can see the flaws in them. It's only by discarding all models that we can unify our movement and spread our message.

I agree,  let's discard objective reality,  then we can make the world into whatever we like.   LOL.    I wonder if there is any downside?

First image is taken from higher elevation than second, pointing slightly down at the LM.

The LM is in a bit of dip.  As is position of second photo.

Bottom of mountain is cut off on second image by the terrain, the line of which you can see on the high res photo (no, it’s not where the painting/projection starts).

The angle has changed obviously, putting the LM to left of mountain in second shot, accounting for its apparent rotation, and slight change in view of top of mountain.

At a guess, I’d place second picture taken from about halfway down white line on right hand side of first picture.

Come on guys, we talk about things being obscured by the horizon all the damn time.  How has no one thought of this yet?

Unconvinced, you've nailed it.

I was also going to propose the 2nd photo was taken from a higher elevation, LM possibly being in a dip, different angle, accounting for differences with LM positioning in photo, etc.

It's common sense.

So what is the trickery supposedly ?
That is quite simple:
You are claiming the mountain is magically shrinking, and using a photo with a different scale to pretend it has shrunk.

You have no actual basis for your claim that the closer shot has a smaller mountain.

Previously you claimed they were exactly the same, that it was just a backdrop, but that was shown to be wrong as well as they are similar, but not identical.

Even when you claim the angle of the LEM is different than another problem occurs. The mountain top is different !
That isn't a problem.
As it is viewed from a different angle you would expect the mountain to appear different.

Envision a proper rotated  LEM from one picture to the other.   How many degrees would that be ?
Quite a few.
I would estimate just below 90 degrees.
But that is the LM not the mountain. For the mountain it will be much less.

No way the background could possible match.
Good thing they don't match.
They are close, but not a match.
There is nothing impossible about this. If you think there is please enlighten us all as to just what this problem is.
Don't be vague, be very specific.

Yes, I know. You don't want to have a model because people can then use that to show your model is wrong.
You hope that without a model you can pretend Earth is flat.
But again, I don't need you to have a model to show it is wrong.
The moon alone is proof (enough to convince any sane person) that Earth is round.

It's really much easier not to have a model. That way there's nothing that needs defending.
Not having a model is not enough.
If you make a claim, like claiming Earth is flat, then that needs defending.
Even without having a model, it needs defending.
While not having a model allows some obfuscation as a form of defence, in general it makes the defence harder as you are claiming something with literally nothing to back it up.

If you don't want have anything to defend the solution is quite simple: Don't make any claims, don't even have opinions. State you have no idea on what the shape of Earth is.
Then you have nothing to defend as you aren't presenting an opinion.

But there's no reason why a FE would demand the moon to be one mile across and 20 miles high.
While the exact numbers are wrong there is a reason.
While the moon is above the equator, if you view it from 45 degrees north (i.e. 5000 km) of where it is directly above, it appears at an angle of 45 degrees.
This allows you to determine that the moon is at a height of 5000 km above the equator.
When observing it from the equator it is observed to be roughly 0.5 degrees across, which for the distance of 5000 km results in a width of roughly 50 km.
The key part of this which necessitates that the moon is close and small is that different locations on the FE see the moon in different directions.
If Earth is flat, this only makes sense with a small close moon.
But this has the problem of the moon should look different from different locations, and change size.
The fact that it looks the same regardless of where you are on Earth and remains roughly the same size demands a distant large moon.

Assuming a FE has lead to a direct contradiction without assuming any particular model.

The only sane option which can explain it is having a distant, large moon to produce the same view regardless of where you are, with the change in apparent direction being due to the surface of Earth being at a different angle, i.e. Earth not being flat.

So even without a model, you still have massive problems you need to defend against if you want to claim Earth is flat.

We can have a flat Earth just because we say so.
You mean you can recognise that FE does not match reality but reject reality anyway.

This is not politics. The shape of Earth is not decided by popular vote.
Even if you were in the majority Earth would still be round.

If you want to discard the flaws then discard the idea of Earth being flat as it simply doesn't match reality and needs plenty of magic/massive conspiracies to prop it up.

"Not everyone around the world is prepared to take the word of the United States on faith."
-Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien in a speech to the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations, February 13, 2003

This is an image of a Reaction Control System thruster firing on the space shuttle, taken from Joseph P. Allen's book Entering Space :
(https://i.postimg.cc/VNK4dzS5/SPACE-SHUTTLE-THRUST.jpg)

Another image from Allen's book also shows flame and visible exhaust from the Orbital Maneuvering Subsystem :
(http://ocii.com/%7Edpwozney/oms3d100.jpg)

Orange-coloured exhaust, from a single 26400 N (6000 lb) OMS firing, is caused by the oxidizer, nitrogen tetroxide :
(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/STS51I/10062237.jpg)

However, images and video of the lunar ascent and descent modules (LM), allegedly taken from the surface of the moon and from the Apollo Command/Service Module (C/SM), do not show flame or exhaust.

For the Apollo lunar ascent and descent module single main engine and sixteen attitude control thrusters, the fuel and oxidizer were, respectively, hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide.  The space shuttle orbiter also uses hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide in its Orbital Maneuvering Subsystem and Reaction Control System.

In Entering Space, Allen describes the shuttle thrusters: "The forward primary thrusters sound like exploding cannons at thrust onset; and during their firing, jets of flame shoot out from the orbiter's nose. ...The orbiter reacts to the primaries' shove by shaking slightly and moving very noticeably. For the crew on board, a series of attitude changes using primaries resembles a World War I sea battle, with cannons and mortars firing, flashes of flame shooting in all directions, and the ship's shuddering and shaking in reaction to the salvos."

Images from a surface camera pan the lunar ascent module as it lifts off the surface. The background is a pitch black sky.

In this image (https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS17/10075983.jpg) showing the Apollo 17 lunar ascent module "Challenger" supposedly lifting off from the Taurus-Littrow landing site there is no flame, exhaust, or even engine exhaust shroud visible from the bottom of the lunar ascent module.

The lunar ascent module engine had a 15000 N (3500 lb) thrust.  The attitude control thrusters for the Apollo C/SM and LM (which had four sets of quadruple thrusters) had 490 N (110 lb) of thrust each. In comparison, the 38 thrusters for shuttle orbit control each have a nominal thrust of 3870 N (880 lb), with a range from 3114 N to 5338 N.  Why is the exhaust visible from the 3870 N shuttle thruster but not from the 15000 N lunar ascent module engine?

It's impossible to find any images or video footage of any visible flame or exhaust coming from any of the four quadruple clusters used for attitude control of the lunar module, or from the main engines of the ascent and descent modules.  However, official NASA artists' drawings do show a considerable amount of flame and exhaust emanating from the main engine :

(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075184.jpg)
(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075186.jpg)

In the films To The Edge And Back covering Apollo 13 and Apollo 13, animation shows the LM main engine emitting a bright flame for the various burns between the earth and the moon.  In Apollo 13, animation shows visible flame from the LM thrusters during SM separation from the CM and LM.

In the 30-minute documentary Houston, We've Got A Problem covering Apollo 13, an image of the service module shows the panel blown off :
(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS13/10075514.jpg)

The SM is bright and takes up a good portion of the screen. On the remainder of the screen stars appear to be indistiguishable from debris. Photographs taken from the surface of the moon do not show stars in the sky.

In For All Mankind by the National Geographic Society, astronauts are shown suiting up. In their launch suits, the astronauts do arm exercises and wave to the crowd.  From these scenes the Apollo suits do not appear to have bearings at the joints like the space shuttle extra vehicular suits, which do have bearings at the elbow, shoulder, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle joints.  How were the Apollo astronauts able to bend their joints, especially their finger joints, on the moon if their suits were pressurized?

(https://i.postimg.cc/kXpDfZkz/APOLLO-PRESSURIZED-SUITS.jpg)

Pressurized suits give a rigid balloon-like appearance which the moon astronauts did not appear to have

The For All Mankind video shows the ground when the lunar module is landing.  As dust is being kicked up from the main engine, a dark shadow of the module appears.  The ground in the lunar module shadow does not show any reflection or brightness from any main engine exhaust flame.

Why were there were no emergencies or problems from the temperature extremes of -100 to -150 degrees Fahrenheit to +215F?  A study paper for a proposed moonbase uses a noon-time worst case of 375 K (102 C, or 215 F) for a lunar surface temperature.

In For All Mankind, ground control announced that the temperature in the shade was -100 to -150 degrees Fahrenheit.  Were the batteries of the lunar rover in the shade, and if so, how were they protected against these temperature extremes?

At temperatures less than -40F (-40C) a lot of materials start becoming very brittle. Electrical items do not work as well.  Batteries produce less current.  The extreme temperature variations from shadow to sunlight would cause significant material contraction and expansion and would make equipment breakdown and failure very likely.

Why did the one-sixth gravity cause the astronauts to alternate between hopping and walking?  We all saw many sequences where an astronauts looked like they were flexing their knees pretty good to jump but they did not travel any higher than 40 cm. Why? The astronauts were not hopping any farther than what the typical person could hop here on Earth.

There a number of times in Apollo footage when the astronauts were landing pretty hard on their knees.  Were they not running a huge risk of puncturing their pressurized suits? According to an article in the Dec. 1, 1969 issue of Aviation Week and Space Technology, Apollo mission planners were worried about suit puncture and cutting.

After an Apollo 14 astronaut sets up and lets go of the flag, the flag flutters, is still, and then flutters again.  This may be viewed on the Apollo Interactive CD-ROM by Simitar Entertainment.

How about the stability of the lunar module in flight. Only a single engine is provided, for both the ascent and descent phases, right in the centre with the potential for a rapidly shifting centre of gravity to be off considerably from the thrust vector due to the design.  Shifting centre of gravity due to fuel consumption and astronaut movement, and eccentric loading due to weight of rover or moon rocks, would result in an unstable and unbalanced craft.  The ascent and descent modules have a significantly different centre of gravity yet they both use the same four sets of quadruple thrusters, giving different flight characteristics and handling.  How can the quadruple thrusters fire quickly enough and sufficiently enough to counteract a quickly changing and significantly changing thrust vector?  How can the system remain stable and not loop uncontrollably?  The ascent stage engine was not gimballed, and the inherently off-center, large torquing thrust would have to have been constantly and very immediately counteracted by the small, low-thrust, quadruple thrusters.  The craft has good potential to fly like a balloon you let go of and let deflate.  I am currently attempting to obtain actual engineering drawings to perform detailed calculations.

0b. The airlocks between the lunar rover and the outside, none. NONE!!! Fantasy the lot.
Why should there be any "airlocks between the lunar rover and the outside"?
The lunar rover is only driven by astronauts wearing spacesuits (Extravehicular Mobility Units) so why would airlocks be needed?

When entering the LM from the CM the airlock is part of the CM (one hatch on the CM and one on the LM).
On the surface, the LM was depressurised before exit and repressurised after re-entry.
The LM atmosphere was pure oxygen atmosphere at only 5 psi, about one-third the pressure of the air.

So you, cikljamas, might not be able to understand these simple issues but that in no way proves it is "Fantasy the lot" it just proves that you are too lazy to investigate and understand it!

Well, it is indeed Fantasy the lot :

According to the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/ (http://Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/), for Apollo 12, values given for cabin pressure are 4.8 psi, and for normal operating suit pressure, 3.8 psi. This suggests a pure oxygen environment for the Lunar Module.

For Apollo 11, 12, & 14, during EVA preparation, the suit relative pressures were 4.6 to 5.2 psi when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi, giving suit absolute pressures of 8.1 to 8.7 psi pure oxygen.  At earth's atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi, this correlates to 55% to 60% oxygen content, which gives an oxygen partial pressure of 8.1 to 8.7 psi.

According to the Apollo 12 ALSJ, the suits were already difficult to bend at 3.8 psi relative pressure (when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi).  When the suit pressures were at about 4.5 psi relative pressure, the suits were very stiff.

The following quotes are from a March 11, 1968 Aviation Week & Space Technology article headlined "Flammability Tests Spur Two-Gas Apollo".

"Washington - Decision to use a two-gas atmosphere (60% oxygen, 40% nitrogen) during manned Apollo on-the-pad preparations and in pre-orbital flight reflects a basic inability to make the spacecraft flameproof after 14 months of redesign that cost more than $100 million and added about 2,000 lb. to the system.

"The decision (AW&ST, Mar. 4, p. 21) was forced on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration after three series of flammability tests on an Apollo command module boilerplate failed to satisfy officials that changes would prevent the spread of fire under a pure-oxygen environment."

The article goes on to mention how a 95% oxygen system at 6.2 psi which would be orbital configuration developed problems in fire propagation tests.

Would not there have been serious flammability problems of such an environment in the lunar module? The article concludes:

"By switching to a two-gas system for pre-flight and immediate post-launch activities, NASA is willing to accept an added problem. Astronauts will be breathing pure oxygen during that phase and they will have to vent the spacecraft cabin during boost to orbit and repressurize to 6 psi with oxygen to permit them to remove their helmets and work in relative comfort.

"Possibility of the 40% of nitrogen causing bends if an emergency escape has to be made during the launch phase was considered by officials less hazardous than that of fire propagation in a one-gas system."

A Feb. 6, 1967 article in AW&ST indicates that when the Apollo program was being planned, the primary reason for choosing a 5-psi cabin oxygen system was weight considerations. Added weight (with a two-gas system) would come from a mixture control system to keep the proper gas ratio. Also, introduction of an oxygen-nitrogen or oxygen-helium environmental control system for Apollo would have meant the addition of an airlock.

Just how dangerous was a pure oxygen environment in the ascent and descent lunar module considered to be?

Here on earth, increasing the percentage of oxygen to slightly above 21% dramatically increases probability of fires. According to The Anthropic Cosmological Principle (p. 567) by Barrow and Tipler, "...the probability of a forest fire being started by a lightning-bolt increases 70% for every 1% rise in oxygen concentration above the present 21%. Above 25% very little of the vegetation on land would survive the fires...". "At the present fraction of 21%, fires will not start at more than 15% moisture content. Were the oxygen content to reach 25%, even damp twigs and the grass of a rain forest would ignite."(p. 568).

Ralph René, in his book NASA Mooned America, provides a list of government-sponsored testing that resulted in oxygen fires. René extracted this information from Appendix G in Mission To The Moon by Kennan & Harvey. Here are some tests on that list:

"September 9, 1962 - The first known fire occurred in the Space Cabin Simulator at Brooks Air Force Base in a chamber using 100% oxygen at 5 psi. It was explosive and involved the carbon dioxide scrubber. Both occupants collapsed from smoke inhalation before being rescued."

"November 17, 1962 - Another incident using 100% oxygen at 5 psi in a chamber at the Navy Laboratory (ACEL). There were four occupants in the chamber, but the simple replacing of a burned-out light bulb caused their clothes to catch on fire. They escaped in 40 seconds but all suffered burns. Two were seriously injured. In addition an asbestos 'safety' blanket caught fire and burned causing one man's hand to catch fire."

"April 28, 1966 - More Apollo equipment was destroyed as it was being tested under 100% oxygen and 5 psi at the Apollo Environmental Control System in Torrance, CA."

"January 1, 1967 - The last known test was over three weeks before Grissom, Chaffee & White suffered immolation. Two men were handling 16 rabbits in a chamber of 100% oxygen at 7.2 psi at Brooks Air Force Base and all living things died in the inferno. The cause may have been as simple as a static discharge from a rabbit's fur ... but we'll never know."

NASA subjected Grissom, White and Chaffee to over 90% pure oxygen at over 16 psi in a test with live electrical circuits and switches being thrown, and with a hatch that took more than three minutes to open, resulting in the fatal Apollo 1 fire.

Bill Kaysing, in his book We Never Went To The Moon, states, in Chapter 9 titled "Murder By Negligence On Pad 34", "If any two documents lend credibility to the contention that the Apollo flights were faked, they are most certainly the Baron Report and the Phillips Report. They were authored by two men of obvious integrity and dedication. Although from diverse backgrounds, both Tom Baron and Sam Phillips were in total agreement on one basic premise, i.e., that North American Aviation and its sponsor, NASA, were totally unequal to the task of assuring even one successful flight to the moon!"

Now care to answer the very simple question yet?

What force acts on the gas to make it move in a particular direction when exiting the rocket and what body is providing this force?
Again, the only rational answer is that the rocket is providing a force to the gas to move it backwards due to the way it is partially contained.
That means rockets would work in a vacuum.

You still haven't watched this video :



No, the “second body” isnt the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

In the context of a bowling ball experiment :

The guy on a skateboard = FIRST BODY
FORCE = Motion of his arms that pushes off a heavy ball
A MEDICINE BALL = SECOND BODY

Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) enables our guy to be pushed off of a heavy ball.
Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) imitates/simulates THE AIR
Lightness of some light object (which our guy could have used in his second hypothetical try) imitates/simulates A VACUUM

Get it???

Or do i have to copy/paste this portion of my previous post (again), as well :


There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).

So, INERTIA (of the bowling ball) is the magic word (an explanation) that you are looking for (which is behind this fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method.

Do i have to remind you to one other equally fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method that should have looked authentic (dropping a ball in a moving train/airplane)???

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).

HERE IT IS : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78814.msg2128697#msg2128697

Now, back on the track :

Pay attention to this very important (exposing) aspect of NASA's fraudulent method (bowling ball) :
In which exact moment does our guy (on the skateboard) starts to move back (in the video posted by sokarul)???

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)

BOWLING BALL SLOW MOTION REVEALS NASA'S SCAM :


Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
That is to say, if we could make the ball to disappear (to vanish into thin air) in the exact same moment when our skateboard guy extends his hands to the full extent (few milliseconds before he throws the ball), he would be still pushed back to the same degree as it is shown in sokarul's video.
Now, all you have to do is to apply this same logic to our "balloon exhausting" experiments and explain to us, why this fraudulent NASA's method doesn't work the same way in both cases???

However, images and video of the lunar ascent and descent modules (LM), allegedly taken from the surface of the moon and from the Apollo Command/Service Module (C/SM), do not show flame or exhaust.
I take it this means you now fully accept that rockets do in fact work in space and that your prior objects were nothing more than nonsense.

There are 3 main reasons I can think of.
One is a significantly different fuel/oxidiser.
While both use N2O4, from what I can find the Space shuttle uses monomethyl hydrazine, not hydrazine like you claim, while the assent module used a mix of dimethyl hyrazine and hydrazine, not just hydrazine like you say.

But then again, it isn't actually you saying this. It is just you copying and pasting crap from elsewhere.
Why not just link to it rather than spamming here?
http://ocii.com/~dpwozney/apollo1.htm

It's also not a very good argument is it?
"NASA must have faked Apollo because these real shuttle things show it should have been different.""
And:
"NASA must have faked Apollo because these clearly fake cartoons show it differently".

Not a very good argument is it?

The other option is that the much brighter surface of the moon hid the flames as they weren't bright enough.

But the far more rational option is that you are just pulling the same dishonest crap as always.
You are being highly selective with what images you use.

If only there was a video that could be used instead.
Oh wait, there is:


Notice this wonderful part:
(https://i.imgur.com/oz7OIhg.png)
Wow, you can clearly see the orange flame at the base of the module.

Then the debris comes flying out:
(https://i.imgur.com/EQ4trd7.png)


Your next post seems to have a lot of quotes, but no actual arguments.

You still haven't watched this video :
Unless you are showing a rocket not working in space, the video is irrelevant.
From the thumbnail it looks like a prop driven craft, so completely irrelevant.

If you think there is a valid argument, provide it in text here.

No, the “second body” isnt the gases
Do the gasses remain with the rocket?
NO!
As such, they are a second body.
You not liking that wont change that fact.

Again, saying the gas is not a second body is like saying the baseball is not the second body and that the pitcher should feel it when the batter hits the ball.
It is pure nonsense.

Or do i have to copy/paste this portion of my previous post (again), as well :
Copying and pasting the same refuted garbage wont help you.

As much as you hate it, the gas is the second body.
The rocket forces the gas backwards and the gas forces the rocket forwards.

The inertia of the gas is the only "resistance" required for the rocket to move.

To claim otherwise you need to claim that the gas remains a part of the rocket, and thus remains with it, rather than leaving it.

That would require you to claim that if you have a gas in a pressurised container and have an opening in that container, the gas will magically remain inside.
It is pure nonsense.

Now how about you answer the question:
What force acts on the gas to make it move in a particular direction when exiting the rocket and what body is providing this force?
Again, the only rational answer is that the rocket is providing a force to the gas to move it backwards due to the way it is partially contained.
That means rockets would work in a vacuum.

You are claiming the mountain is magically shrinking, and using a photo with a different scale to pretend it has shrunk.
He isn't telling this. Stop to use your imagination as an example to represent thoughts of others. You are not a witch.
You have no actual basis for your claim that the closer shot has a smaller mountain.
There is. Your denying simple phsics does not magically events how you want they to be. You deny it because it contradicts to your predicted arguments have produced in a cave.
That isn't a problem.
It is a great problem. Your closing your eyes or digging your head to sand does not magically make it not exist.
As it is viewed from a different angle you would expect the mountain to appear different.
It seems same. Your thoughts for only object for honor of objection.

You don't want to have a model because people can then use that to show your model is wrong.
Nope. The wrong model is globularist model and you have feel honored to use that wrong model while you know its being wrong. So your thesis is debunked.
The moon alone is proof (enough to convince any sane person) that Earth is round.
The moon and the earth are quite different things. Your example like comparison the table is rectangle so the earth has to be rectangle. Do everything has a hole has to be blackhole?
If you make a claim, like claiming Earth is flat, then that needs defending.
And we are defending it well. Your baseless claims do not change that fact.
Even without having a model, it needs defending.
There is a well known model, flat earth model. Your baselessly denying it does not magically make it disappear.

So....what mechanism allows a force to be transferred to the rocket from an exhaust molecule hitting an air molecule?
Resistance!
Ever heard of
  • "A body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force."
  • force = mass x acceleration or the more general case where mass might vary force = rate of change of momentum and
  • "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."
There's no mention if "Resistance" anywhere.
Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!


You still haven't watched this video :



No, the “second body” isnt the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

In the context of a bowling ball experiment :

The guy on a skateboard = FIRST BODY
FORCE = Motion of his arms that pushes off a heavy ball
A MEDICINE BALL = SECOND BODY

Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) enables our guy to be pushed off of a heavy ball.
Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) imitates/simulates THE AIR
Lightness of some light object (which our guy could have used in his second hypothetical try) imitates/simulates A VACUUM

Get it???

Or do i have to copy/paste this portion of my previous post (again), as well :


There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).

So, INERTIA (of the bowling ball) is the magic word (an explanation) that you are looking for (which is behind this fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method.

Do i have to remind you to one other equally fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method that should have looked authentic (dropping a ball in a moving train/airplane)???

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).

HERE IT IS : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78814.msg2128697#msg2128697

Now, back on the track :

Pay attention to this very important (exposing) aspect of NASA's fraudulent method (bowling ball) :
In which exact moment does our guy (on the skateboard) starts to move back (in the video posted by sokarul)???

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)

BOWLING BALL SLOW MOTION REVEALS NASA'S SCAM :


Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
That is to say, if we could make the ball to disappear (to vanish into thin air) in the exact same moment when our skateboard guy extends his hands to the full extent (few milliseconds before he throws the ball), he would be still pushed back to the same degree as it is shown in sokarul's video.
Now, all you have to do is to apply this same logic to our "balloon exhausting" experiments and explain to us, why this fraudulent NASA's method doesn't work the same way in both cases???

No, wrong-o!
Rocket = first body
Expelled gasses = second body.

Expelled gasses exit rocket nozzle at high velocity (with little mass), rocket moves in opposite direction at a lower velocity as it has higher mass.
An equal and opposite force is exerted by the rocket on the gasses, and by the gasses on the rocket.
NOTHING else is necessary - no atmosphere 'to push on', so rockets work fine in a vacuum (or in air) ...

Well, this video is utter gibberish, and (as usual with this uneducated nonsense) conflates a number of unrelated effects in a confusing manner. It's like a magic trick with a sleight-of-hand. The presenter is mixing up several unrelated ideas (which taken spearately are actually correct) and applying them in an incorrect manner. The drone flying is nothing to do with a rocket, for example, but to the untrained and non-critical thinker, this appears to make sense (whereas of course, it is total gibberish). Third law relates to mass/inertia. Throw a heavy ball in one direction - you are pushed with an equal and opposite force in the opposite direction. No other external body/atmosphere/wall is necessary ...

Gas is gas.  It has properties of matter- mass, density, temperature, state, momentum.

It’s not a force, but can be used to apply a force.  Through pressure or momentum.

You seem to be happy for gas (atmosphere) to be the second body in the case of aircraft propellers, and even rockets in atmosphere. 

So why do you think gas is somehow a completely different thing when expelled from a rocket?  It’s still gas, no?

Why cloud morphing is so drastically different in the case of Himawari 8 satellite (geosynchronous satellite) animation comparing it to earth's rotation animation allegedly created of photos allegedly taken by Galileo "spacecraft" (close pass of the earth on December 1990)?

Neil De Grass Tyson explains that at the edge of an atmosphere you can see stars even with the sun in the sky, doesn't it mean that when the sun is not in the sky then the view of the stars is much more spectacular (the stars are much brighter) then here on the earth. Following this logic i suppose that in space you wouldn't even have to use long exposure in order to catch the stars while taking the photo of the night sky. ACCOMPANYING VIDEO :

Some people even claim that at the edge of the atmosphere you can't see stars at all, not only that, they claim that at the edge of the atmosphere you can't even see the sun, all that you can see (according to them) is the moon and the earth. ACCOMPANYING VIDEO :

On the other hand, according to Neil De Grass Tyson when you get at the edge of the atmosphere all of a sudden the view becomes totally spectacular. So, as i already pointed out : following his (Neil De Grass Tyson) logic stars wouldn't be just a little brighter, they would be much brighter. How much brighter? It's hard to tell, but i would say : at least so much brighter as the stars are brighter when we watch them from some high mountain free of light pollution (during the clearest night) in comparison to the view of the stars as seen from some hazy hill in the vicinity of Los Angeles.

The reality is that when looking through the atmosphere you can see the stars from some hazy hill above Los Angeles, you can even catch them with your camera without applying any zoom, whatsoever (let alone, what happens when you zoom in (just a little bit)) :

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!

The second body is the tonnes of exhaust gas expelled at hypersonic velocity by the rocket.

I see nothing in "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction" to exclude that!

When a bomb explodes what was originally all part of one object separates and the parts fly in all directions - surely you don't claim that a bomb won't explode on a vacuum?

Very good question!

It's still gas (flame), of course, however rocket's gas (flame) does it's work when expelled from a rocket, not before. Now you have to ask yourself : Why it does it's work as soon as it is expelled from a rocket, and not before (while still in rocket chamber)?

Is it because when expelled from a rocket, gas (flame) is no longer part of a rocket or is it because it exerts it's force on the second body (the air)?

Is there a spatial/physical gap between a flame expelled and a rocket?

No, there isn't, that is to say, once an expelled flame is dissipated (wasted/consumed) then (and only then) rocket gas (flame) "becomes" "spatially/physically separated" from the body of a rocket.
But what is the true meaning of this phrase (in this particular case) : being physically separated from the body of a rocket???
In this particular case it means that at this point in time there is no longer any rocket gas (flame) to which we could refer, since it's already completely gone (vanished into thin air) out of existence.
So, we figuratively say that body of a rocket becomes separated from an expelled flame, we don't mean it, literally, because an expelled flame ceased to exist at this point of time.

Magellanclavicord, I say the world is made of chocolate, and so it is so! Presto! Everywhere I go, I break off pieces of delicious chocolate and eat it, drink it, sniff it, wash myself in it, and inject it. That's the thing though, the chocolate isn't brown, but it's still chocolate. Maybe I should start the chocolate earth society, ey magellanclavicord? You can bring your rainbows and lollipops.

YES! You've got it! However, I'd caution you against injecting chocolate. It can coagulate in your veins and act like a blood clot. Also, washing yourself in it might be seen as a bit kinky, so keep that in mind if you let kink-phobic people know you do that.  ;)

Which is why I don't have a model.
Yes, I know. You don't want to have a model because people can then use that to show your model is wrong.

Close, but not quite: It is premature to assert a model before you know what model really withstands the tests. For example, I do not know all the intricate details of how a car engine works. I know that it has cylinders and pistons and spark plugs, but if I tried to describe all the fine details I would certainly be wrong. So I don't pretend to have a model of a car engine. I just know the names of some of its parts, and I know that it works. Mostly. Sometimes an engine doesn't work, but mostly it does. I don't have a model of the FE because, as with the car engine, I don't know the details so if I adopted a model, or invented one of my own, it would be wrong, just as my model of a car engine would be wrong.

That's the mistake so many FEers make: They adopt a model without knowing, and try to defend that model, but they cannot because their models are wrong. I don't have a model because I don't know what model is right.

If I say I believe the earth is flat because that's what the bible says according to my interpretation,  that would be a valid worldview as any other, but then I can't say that I believe in science. That would be like saying that the earth is flat and round at the same time. It's a contradiction.

People engage in contradictions all the time. We all do it. If you were honest with yourself you'd probably find some contradictions of your own. Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus said "Love your enemies." But Christians fly airplanes over their enemies and drop bombs on them. People who break traffic laws, endangering the lives of others, get mad at people who cheat on their taxes, and people who cheat on their taxes get mad at people who violate border regulations. A person who brings goods into the country without declaring them to Customs gets mad at a person who enters the country without documentation. Human beings are just a bundle of contradictions. It's a mistake to say "You cannot say both X and Y" because pretty much everything anybody ever says contradicts something else they've said.

The mountain backdrop top plateau in photo 2 and 4 is further to the left.
Even when you shrink the LEM in photo 3 from it's centre focal point inwards the LEM is further to the left and the mountain plateau to the right in picture 3 by a considerable margin.

What mountains are behind photo 1 ?

Furthermore NASA claims that because there is no atmosphere the distance is playing tricks with you. More detail at greater distances is available on the moon.
And the mountains are higher than they appear to be.

After going through each and every Apollo 17 photograph this night (i barely slept) it finally made sense.
They are indeed using a small area with a relative small mountain backdrop.
The backdrop mountains change their position dramatically in relation to the LEM whenever a picture was taken from a slightly different angle. Whereas in real life ,really big mountains in the far distance move much more smoothly relative to an object.

If you ever visit The Hague you should visit the panorama Mesdag and it's really small, but still giving a believeable dept illusion.
Let alone an area from a couple of hunderd yards with a backdrop.

It's still gas (flame), of course, however rocket's gas (flame) does it's work when expelled from a rocket, not before. Now you have to ask yourself : Why it does it's work as soon as it is expelled from a rocket, and not before (while still in rocket chamber)?

Is it because when expelled from a rocket, gas (flame) is no longer part of a rocket or is it because it exerts it's force on the second body (the air)?

Is there a spatial/physical gap between a flame expelled and a rocket?

No, there isn't, that is to say, once an expelled flame is dissipated (wasted/consumed) then (and only then) rocket gas (flame) "becomes" "spatially/physically separated" from the body of a rocket.
But what is the true meaning of this phrase (in this particular case) : being physically separated from the body of a rocket???
In this particular case it means that at this point in time there is no longer any rocket gas (flame) to which we could refer, since it's already completely gone (vanished into thin air) out of existence.
So, we figuratively say that body of a rocket becomes separated from an expelled flame, we don't mean it, literally, because an expelled flame ceased to exist at this point of time.

Sorry, I don’t get the point about gaps.

The force should be applied to whatever part of engine is accelerating the gas.  In the gas of a rocket, that’s the injector plate of the combustion engine and the bell end, sorry, rocket bell ;)

Although it’s not really even necessary to know this to look at the overall system.  You can just draw a control volume around the whole rocket, calculate the momentum of gas coming out the back, and due to conservation of momentum, that means you have to have a forward momentum on the rocket.

The Chinese ''men in outerspace'' was fake as fuck.
The Americans are head and shoulders above the Chinese still when it comes to implementing believable film trickery.
The Russians were hardly capable of making a half decent movie in 1969 let alone a believable moon mission and movieset.

They are indeed using a small area with a relative small mountain backdrop.
The backdrop mountains change their position dramatically in relation to the LEM whenever a picture was taken from a slightly different angle. Whereas in real life ,really big mountains in the far distance move much more smoothly relative to an object.

Hang on.  Just to clarify, what are you proposing this “backdrop” actually is?

Are we talking paintings, projections, or a real physical body?

You should ask NASA..how should i know which combi's they used when and where ?
It looks beyond fake and rediculous compared to any photograph on earth...
But like i said the beautifull NASA ''moon conditions'' do their magic again.
Details on the moon do not fade out like on earth in the distance, because the lack of an atmosphere prevents details from washing out like on earth.
And allthaugh the mountains appear near and small , that's because it appears that way on the moon without an atmosphere.
How conveniant again.... ::)

Are you saying they didn’t even go into any details on how it was shot?

Because NASA sent Stanley Kubrick to the moon to fake the landings in the most realistic way possible. The Russians wanted to do the same thing, and Kubrick was willing, if the pay was right, but the Russians couldn't convince NASA to send Kubrick back to the moon so he could fake some moon landings for them.

Lichtenstein faked some moon landings but they released their videos on January 25, 1971, the same day Idi Amin took over the government of Uganda and the Lichtenstein fake moon landing videos never made it into the mainstream media.

Willard Gavrilovitch Finklebloggen of Pizpot, Arkensas faked some videos of himself landing on the moon but nobody took him seriously because he appeared in the videos to have used a hot air balloon to get there.

The CIA’s Worst-Kept Secret: Newly Declassified Files Confirm United States Collaboration with Nazis
Pried loose by Congress, which passed the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act three years ago, a long-hidden trove of once-classified CIA documents confirms one of the worst-kept secrets of the cold war--the CIA's use of an extensive Nazi spy network to wage a
May 1, 2001 | Martin A. Lee

“Honest and idealist … enjoys good food and wine … unprejudiced mind …”

That’s how a 1952 Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) assessment described Nazi ideologue Emil Augsburg, an officer at the infamous Wannsee Institute, the SS think tank involved in planning the Final Solution. Augsburg’s SS unit performed “special duties,” a euphemism for exterminating Jews and other “undesirables” during the Second World War.

Although he was wanted in Poland for war crimes, Augsburg managed to ingratiate himself with the U.S. CIA, which employed him in the late 1940s as an expert on Soviet affairs. Recently released CIA records indicate that Augsburg was among a rogue’s gallery of Nazi war criminals recruited by U.S. intelligence agencies shortly after Germany surrendered to the Allies.

Pried loose by Congress, which passed the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act three years ago, a long-hidden trove of once-classified CIA documents confirms one of the worst-kept secrets of the cold war–the CIA’s use of an extensive Nazi spy network to wage a clandestine campaign against the Soviet Union.

The CIA reports show that U.S. officials knew they were subsidizing numerous Third Reich veterans who had committed horrible crimes against humanity, but these atrocities were overlooked as the anti-Communist crusade acquired its own momentum. For Nazis who would otherwise have been charged with war crimes, signing on with American intelligence enabled them to avoid a prison term.

“The real winners of the cold war were Nazi war criminals, many of whom were able to escape justice because the East and West became so rapidly focused after the war on challenging each other,” says Eli Rosenbaum, director of the Justice Department’s Office of Special Investigations and America’s chief Nazi hunter. Rosenbaum serves on a Clinton-appointed Interagency Working Group (IWG) committee of U.S. scholars, public officials, and former intelligence officers who helped prepare the CIA records for declassification.

Many Nazi criminals “received light punishment, no punishment at all, or received compensation because Western spy agencies considered them useful assets in the cold war,” the IWG team stated after releasing 18,000 pages of redacted CIA material. (More installments are pending.)

These are “not just dry historical documents,” insists former congresswoman Elizabeth Holtzman, a member of the panel examining the CIA files. As far as Holtzman is concerned, the CIA papers raise critical questions about American foreign policy and the origins of the cold war.

The decision to recruit Nazi operatives had a negative impact on U.S.-Soviet relations and set the stage for Washington’s tolerance of human rights abuses and other criminal acts in the name of anti-Communism. With that fateful sub-rosa embrace, the die was cast for a litany of antidemocratic CIA interventions around the world.

The Gehlen Org
The key figure on the German side of the CIA-Nazi tryst was General Reinhard Gehlen, who had served as Adolf Hitler’s top anti-Soviet spy. During World War II, Gehlen oversaw all German military-intelligence operations in Eastern Europe and the USSR.

As the war drew to a close, Gehlen surmised that the U.S.-Soviet alliance would soon break down. Realizing that the United States did not have a viable cloak-and-dagger apparatus in Eastern Europe, Gehlen surrendered to the Americans and pitched himself as someone who could make a vital contribution to the forthcoming struggle against the Communists. In addition to sharing his vast espionage archive on the USSR, Gehlen promised that he could resurrect an underground network of battle-hardened, anti-Communist assets who were well placed to wreak havoc throughout the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.

Although the Yalta Treaty stipulated that the United States must give the Soviets all captured German officers who had been involved in “eastern area activities,” Gehlen was quickly spirited off to Fort Hunt in Virginia. The image he projected during 10 months of negotiations at Fort Hunt was, to use a bit of espionage parlance, a “legend”–one that hinged on Gehlen’s false claim that he was never really a Nazi, but was dedicated, above all, to fighting Communism. Those who bit the bait included future CIA director Allen Dulles, who became Gehlen’s biggest supporter among American policy wonks.

Gehlen returned to West Germany in the summer of 1946 with a mandate to rebuild his espionage organization and resume spying on the East at the behest of American intelligence. The date is significant as it preceded the onset of the cold war, which, according to standard U.S. historical accounts, did not begin until a year later. The early courtship of Gehlen by American intelligence suggests that Washington was in a cold war mode sooner than most people realize. The Gehlen gambit also belies the prevalent Western notion that aggressive Soviet policies were primarily to blame for triggering the cold war.

Based near Munich, Gehlen proceeded to enlist thousands of Gestapo, Wehrmacht, and SS veterans. Even the vilest of the vile–the senior bureaucrats who ran the central administrative apparatus of the Holocaust–were welcome in the “Gehlen Org,” as it was called–including Alois Brunner, Adolf Eichmann’s chief deputy. SS major Emil Augsburg and gestapo captain Klaus Barbie, otherwise known as the “Butcher of Lyon,” were among those who did double duty for Gehlen and U.S. intelligence. “It seems that in the Gehlen headquarters, one SS man paved the way for the next and Himmler’s elite were having happy reunion ceremonies,” the Frankfurter Rundschau reported in the early 1950s.

Bolted lock, stock, and barrel into the CIA, Gehlen’s Nazi-infested spy apparatus functioned as America’s secret eyes and ears in central Europe. The Org would go on to play a major role within NATO, supplying two-thirds of raw intelligence on the Warsaw Pact countries. Under CIA auspices, and later as head of the West German secret service until he retired in 1968, Gehlen exerted considerable influence on U.S. policy toward the Soviet bloc. When U.S. spy chiefs desired an off-the-shelf style of nation tampering, they turned to the readily available Org, which served as a subcontracting syndicate for a series of ill-fated guerrilla air drops behind the Iron Curtain and other harebrained CIA rollback schemes.

Sitting Ducks for Disinformation
It’s long been known that top German scientists were eagerly scooped up by several countries, including the United States, which rushed to claim these high-profile experts as spoils of World War II. Yet all the while the CIA was mum about recruiting Nazi spies. The U.S. government never officially acknowledged its role in launching the Gehlen organization until more than half a century after the fact.

Handling Nazi spies, however, was not the same as employing rocket technicians. One could always tell whether Werner von Braun and his bunch were accomplishing their assignments for NASA and other U.S. agencies. If the rockets didn’t fire properly, then the scientists would be judged accordingly. But how does one determine if a Nazi spy with a dubious past is doing a reliable job?

Third Reich veterans often proved adept at peddling data–much of it false–in return for cash and safety, the IWG panel concluded. Many Nazis played a double game, feeding scuttlebutt to both sides of the East-West conflict and preying upon the mutual suspicions that emerged from the rubble of Hitler’s Germany.

General Gehlen frequently exaggerated the Soviet threat in order to exacerbate tensions between the superpowers. At one point he succeeded in convincing General Lucius Clay, military governor of the U.S. zone of occupation in Germany, that a major Soviet war mobilization had begun in Eastern Europe. This prompted Clay to dash off a frantic, top-secret telegram to Washington in March 1948, warning that war “may come with dramatic suddenness.”

Gehlen’s disinformation strategy was based on a simple premise: the colder the cold war got, the more political space for Hitler’s heirs to maneuver. The Org could only flourish under cold war conditions; as an institution it was therefore committed to perpetuating the Soviet-American conflict.

“The agency loved Gehlen because he fed us what we wanted to hear. We used his stuff constantly, and we fed it to everyone else–the Pentagon, the White House, the newspapers. They loved it, too. But it was hyped-up Russian bogeyman junk, and it did a lot of damage to this country,” a retired CIA official told author Christopher Simpson, who also serves on the IGW review panel and was author of Blowback: America’s Recruitment of Nazis and Its Effects on the Cold War.

Unexpected Consequences
Members of the Gehlen Org were instrumental in helping thousands of fascist fugitives escape via “ratlines” to safe havens abroad–often with a wink and a nod from U.S. intelligence officers. Third Reich expatriates and fascist collaborators subsequently emerged as “security advisors” in several Middle Eastern and Latin American countries, where ultra-right-wing death squads persist as their enduring legacy. Klaus Barbie, for example, assisted a succession of military regimes in Bolivia, where he taught soldiers torture techniques and helped protect the flourishing cocaine trade in the late 1970s and early ’80s.

CIA officials eventually learned that the Nazi old boy network nesting inside the Gehlen Org had an unexpected twist to it. By bankrolling Gehlen, the CIA unknowingly laid itself open to manipulation by a foreign intelligence service that was riddled with Soviet spies. Gehlen’s habit of employing compromised ex-Nazis–and the CIA’s willingness to sanction this practice–enabled the USSR to penetrate West Germany’s secret service by blackmailing numerous agents.

Ironically, some of the men employed by Gehlen would go on to play leading roles in European neofascist organizations that despise the United States. One of the consequences of the CIA’s ghoulish alliance with the Org is evident today in a resurgent fascist movement in Europe that can trace its ideological lineage back to Hitler’s Reich, through Gehlen operatives, who collaborated with U.S. intelligence.

Slow to recognize that their Nazi hired guns would feign an allegiance to the Western alliance as long as they deemed it tactically advantageous, CIA officials invested far too much in Gehlen’s spooky Nazi outfit. “It was a horrendous mistake, morally, politically, and also in very pragmatic intelligence terms,” says American University professor Richard Breitman, chairman of the IWG review panel.

More than just a bungled spy caper, the Gehlen debacle should serve as a cautionary tale at a time when post-cold war triumphalism and arrogant unilateralism are rampant among U.S. officials. If nothing else, it underscores the need for the United States to confront some of its own demons now that unreconstructed cold warriors are again riding top saddle in Washington.


NASA was one of the safe havens for evildoers and you are simply accepting it, because all of the wonderfull ''dopamine'' NASA gave you with all their spacy adventures.
Of course NASA was full of crooks knowing what propaganda was able to pull off.

But no....a snake pit full of evil doers do not fake the moonlandings, have never ever faked as much as one single Apollo picture.
They do not cheat the taxpayers, everything was well spend.
They were simply hardworking rocket engineers able to give it their very noble best for the whole world.
Werner Von Braun DID not visit Antartica to collect moonrocks just in case....
Even Nixon the crook wouldn't dare to cheat with the sacred Apollo program
All astronauts are giving their very best testimonies during interviews about their unique trip to the moon.
All moon machines worked because of meticulously testing and supreme knowledge from the NASA engineers and constructors.
All moon hazards were dealt with, meaning that batteries, air conditioning and radiation protection was spot on.
Nothing was lost or destroyed, because NASA took care of their entire legacy including petrified woodrocks.

Don't ever claim you had no clue......you choose your own reality validating all facts !!

So what is the trickery supposedly ?

Even when you claim the angle of the LEM is different than another problem occurs. The mountain top is different !

Not sure why you would be questioning these photos. They all look like what they are. Photos taken during the moonwalk and I can’t see any inconsistencies.

If they were to fake them, wouldn't They be making them look like what you’d expect them to look like?

One of the theories doing the rounds is that Stanley Kubrick was in on it and filmed fake moon scenes for NASA.

But compare the photos above with scenes from the film and you can see obvious differences as well as them being obviously studio scenes.





Including the obvious what we would expect of slow motion walking in the 2nd clip.

Compare the 2001 scenes with the Apollo film taken on the moon and the differences are obvious, especially as 2001 was released only a year before the landings.

Only from a different angle towards the LEM....but both LEMS are viewed from approximately the same angle.
So we are at an agreement. Nothing is wrong with the photos.

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!
Yes, like the interaction between a rocket and the gas it creates.

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!
You sure seem to love asking questions that have already been answered.
The first body is the rocket.
The second body is the gas/exhaust.

This has already been explained to you.
Why ask a question that has already been answered as if it is a problem?

In the context of a bowling ball experiment :

The guy on a skateboard = FIRST BODY
FORCE = Motion of his arms that pushes off a heavy ball
A MEDICINE BALL = SECOND BODY
Only with reality.
Which also works for the rocket:
Rocket = FIRST BODY.
FORCE = PRESSURE OF THE GAS.
GAS = SECOND BODY.

Heaviness of a gas (INERTIA) enables our rocket to be pushed off of a gas.

see, no problem there.

Get it?

But in your delusional fantasy world the medicine ball becomes this:
The guy on a skateboard = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED MEDICINE BALL
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

See how stupid that sounds?
But that is what you are claiming with rockets.

Get it?

You are claiming that all that mass which is being ejected is somehow just transmitting force rather than being the second body.

Why?

Or will you claim the pure insanity of gas being massless and not having inertia?
In which case, how would it push off the atmosphere, as that has no inertia as that is a gas?
You can't appeal to the ground either, because the rockets can push sideways as well.
So then you have to explain how the rocket would work in an atmosphere where it has nothing to push off?

See, ignoring the gas doesn't help you at all. It just further destroys your credibility.

It's still gas (flame), of course, however rocket's gas (flame) does it's work when expelled from a rocket, not before. Now you have to ask yourself :
Is it because when expelled from a rocket, gas (flame) is no longer part of a rocket or is it because it exerts it's force on the second body (the air)?
So what you are saying is the gas inside the rocket is still part of the rocket, and it is only when it leaves the rocket that it becomes a second body.
Well that is pure garbage as the velocity is massively different before it leaves.
But even ignoring that, that still works:
First body - Rocket.
Second body - Gas leaving rocket.

No problems.

Is there a spatial/physical gap between a flame expelled and a rocket?
Is there a spatial/physical gap between a medicine ball and the hands?

You have already shown with your claims of NASA being a hoax that the person on the skateboard accelerates before the medicine ball is separated from him.
So that clearly isn't an issue.

Now again, why not address my very simple question that you seem to need to avoid like the plague, almost as if this single question completely destroys your argument:
What force acts on the gas to make it move in a particular direction when exiting the rocket and what body is providing this force?


If this one question is enough to bring you to your knees it shows you have no case and you know you are spouting BS.
So how about you address it?
What force causes the gas to accelerate and leave the rocket and what is the first and second body involved?

It can coagulate in your veins and act like a blood clot
That is just your model of how chocolate works.
If he wants to reject that model it should be fine right? Even though all the evidence would be against him?
Just like it is against you and FE?

Close, but not quite: It is premature to assert a model before you know what model really withstands the tests.
Not in the slightest.
It is the rational next step, at least if you care about the truth and having beliefs which match reality.
You use the available data to make a model, you then compare this model with reality to see if it works.
But as you start with the assumption that Earth is flat, that clearly doesn't apply to you.

I don't have a model of the FE because, as with the car engine, I don't know the details so if I adopted a model, or invented one of my own, it would be wrong, just as my model of a car engine would be wrong.
Your position is more comparable to claiming a car engines works using pixies. Even without a model, you are still wrong.
Even without a model, you still make a claim that still needs defending.

Also, I highly doubt that those 2 positions are in anyway alike.
You aren't coming from a position of extreme ignorance.
You are coming from a position where you know of plenty of flaws of the FE.
It is a case of you not adopting a model, because you know you can't make one that works.

That's the mistake so many FEers make
There is a much bigger mistake before that, assuming Earth is flat.
That is a mistake all FEers make.

The mountain backdrop top plateau in photo 2 and 4 is further to the left.
You mean taking photos from different angles can make background objects appear to move relative to foreground objects?
Damn, here I was thinking that by walking around a table the entire room moved as well.

Are you sure you took those basic art classes, cause that is extremely simple perspective/parallax.
Even lame games have that with your motion making the background move far less than the foreground.

These photos are taken from different angles.
As such, you will end up with parallax issues where the background does not line up.

Here is a very simplified top down view to demonstrate that.
In no way is it intended to be accurate.
(https://i.imgur.com/2jJwu9w.png)
Notice how taking the photo from a different position results in the mountain appearing in a different location relative to the LM?

So again just what do you think the issue is?
Only from a different angle towards the LEM....but both LEMS are viewed from approximately the same angle.
No they aren't.
They are viewed from a range of roughly 90 degrees.
Take a look at your photos again.
See the section on the left of photo 1?
I will call that the back.
The section facing towards you in photo 1 I will call the side.

In the first photo the back is facing to the left, quite significantly, almost 90 degrees from you.
But in the second photo, it isn't. Instead the back is facing directly towards you, with the side going off to the right.
Then in the 3rd photo it is in between, with both the back and the side pointing to some location beside you.
That facing off to the left.

So no, they were not viewing the LM from the same angle. The angles are vastly different.

Do I need to make a picture of the 2 side by side for you to see this?


It looks beyond fake and rediculous compared to any photograph on earth...
So far all we have for that is your baseless assertion.
You are yet to provide anything to indicate it is fake or ridiculous.

Duchy, you're absolutely correct about no atmosphere on the moon explaining why distant landmarks or mountains may appear closer than they are.

This same lack of atmosphere will come in handy one day when the flat moon society kicks off, and someone points out when something is over the curve, it is over the curve. No refraction index is necessary.

If you still believe the distant mountains in the photos are a backdrop, then a backdrop of what? I sense your hatred towards NASA is a small part of your overall hatred of the American government and part of a whole list of other conspiracies you also buy into.

Make no mistake, the depths mankind have stooped to in the past are shameful  , but the moon landings represent the heights mankind can ascend to (excuse the pun).

Thanks for that. I dip into the international skeptics forum quite often, but usually the current events etc., threads. The links you gave will give me some reading for this evening.

I understand you’re in Australia. One of the best reasons for the moon landings not able to have been faked, as told me by a colleague, was that the Australians would have spilled the beans on it since if the ‘dish’ they had didn’t pick up the signals from the moon, they just wouldn’t have kept quiet. Probably due to their irreverent nature, apparently, so i’m told.

Isn’t it sad that the only pro Apollo expert on film and photography is SG Collins who we all know as mister ‘lightguy’ because he vastly overplayed his hand when addressing Apollo and the means of fakery in 1969 ?
And we have , what i call, lots of amatures defending, explaining and adding to the Apollo footage as why they look so fake.
The leader of the pro Apollo bandwagen surely is Jay Windley from Clavius who freely dedicated his life  ::) for more than a decade to defend Apollo.
Then you have Astrobrant (2), Phill Plait, onebigmonkey ( used to post here) and a handfull of names responsible for the pro Apollo commentary on the www other than NASA and mainstream media articles.
But never a decorated photographer or Hollywood filmmaker of name burns his hands on openly claiming he went through all the Apollo imagery and came to the conclusion it was as ’moonish’ as it gets.

While Massimo Mazzucco let Toni Thorimbert, Aldo Fallai, Oliviero Toscani and Peter Lindbergh do some real PROFESSIONAL talking on the Apollo imagery.
Not only that, the most intelligent, most skilled pro Apollo person Jay Windley has been giving lots of airtime in the ‘American moon’ docu from Massimo Mazzucci.
Steadily (after the anniversary avalange is over) people will come to grips with this moon nonsense.

Rabinoz knows he his loosing his grip therefor his arguments gets worse by the day and often aimed at me as a personal dig.....

The mountain backdrop top plateau in photo 2 and 4 is further to the left.
These photos are taken from different angles.
As such, you will end up with parallax issues where the background does not line up.
I skipped over the insults if you don’t mind but you are wrong.....some pictures are taken from approxemately the same angle only a slightly varying height and different lens settings.
Still the background moves. Not that i imply that they moved the LEM, but their extremely close backdrop is in error and moves way to fast when viewing items in front of the backdrop instead of far away huge mountains......
That’s the panorama Mesdag effect what we are wittnessing.

So no, they were not viewing the LM from the same angle. The angles are vastly different.

Tremendous amount of twisted logic, ludicrous claims and utter stupidity... 

Gas pressure requires molecules to be in contact with each other, bouncing off each other, causing millions of collisions per second, etc… If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed, so will the one behind that, never catching up with the first one. The third, fourth, etc… all fly off into the distance trying to fill the vacuum by finding their empty corner. So no matter how much gas you produce none of it will ever change the pressure under a space ship. None it if will ever push a spaceship. To push a spaceship there must be some locally high pressure under it, which is impossible since the pressure in space is 0 everywhere.

Back the the Nozzle and the Massflow equation F=MA on earth
Think about a fire hose shooting water. A force comes directly back against the column of water shooting out. Why? Because the first drop of water has to pas through air, which is dense, causing many collisions, slowing down the drop of water. The second drop, directly behind the first, will not be slowed down by the air so it will collide with the first drop, the third drop hits the second drop and so on, the fast water coming through the hose pushing through the slower water outside causes Newton’s 3rd Law to push back on the column of water. This is why you need people holding the hose to add an unbalanced force otherwise the hose would not be able to push water through that column anymore, the water column would be diverted and the hose would flop around. It is obvious that one drop of water does not push back on the hose, you need a fast moving column.

The nozzle and the Massflow equation in space
Since the molecules leaving the combustion chamber and entering the vacuum never slow down, never collide with any outside objects, nor with each other, their force is always moving forward, away from the ship. There is no way for that force to be returned to the ship. There is no way for the force of the moving molecules to be extracted and used for propulsion. Their force is carried off into the far corners of space. This is also known as Joule Expansion. Remember that as soon as the nozzle is opened, the combustion chamber becomes part of the vacuum of space as is subject to its laws. A closed chamber is under pressure but not an open one.

NASA is lying at the molecular level
But that’s OK because most people don’t usually look there. The awesome, spectacular and heroic nature of space exploration is enough to cloud the most logical minds. Most respectable engineering schools won’t touch space flight and those who do have tiny departments. If it was really a multi-billion dollar government funded operation, every school in America would have their hands out for government grants like they do with Engineering, Computer Science and Biology. But why train thousands of the best minds of a generation in a field that doesn’t exist?

So, once again, just for you Jack :

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!


You still haven't watched this video :



No, the “second body” isnt the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

In the context of a bowling ball experiment :

The guy on a skateboard = FIRST BODY
FORCE = Motion of his arms that pushes off a heavy ball
A MEDICINE BALL = SECOND BODY

Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) enables our guy to be pushed off of a heavy ball.
Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) imitates/simulates THE AIR
Lightness of some light object (which our guy could have used in his second hypothetical try) imitates/simulates A VACUUM

Get it???

Or do i have to copy/paste this portion of my previous post (again), as well :

There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).

So, INERTIA (of the bowling ball) is the magic word (an explanation) that you are looking for (which is behind this fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method.

Do i have to remind you to one other equally fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method that should have looked authentic (dropping a ball in a moving train/airplane)???

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).

HERE IT IS : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78814.msg2128697#msg2128697

Now, back on the track :

Pay attention to this very important (exposing) aspect of NASA's fraudulent method (bowling ball) :
In which exact moment does our guy (on the skateboard) starts to move back (in the video posted by sokarul)???

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)

BOWLING BALL SLOW MOTION REVEALS NASA'S SCAM :


Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
That is to say, if we could make the ball to disappear (to vanish into thin air) in the exact same moment when our skateboard guy extends his hands to the full extent (few milliseconds before he throws the ball), he would be still pushed back to the same degree as it is shown in sokarul's video.
Now, all you have to do is to apply this same logic to our "balloon exhausting" experiments and explain to us, why this fraudulent NASA's method doesn't work the same way in both cases???

No, you are doing it again... Above you note that the medicene ball is the second body, because it's HEAVY.
But you forget that the expelled gasses also have mass and thus constitute the second body.
Your problem is that you think that gas is light so it's can't have mass - but of course it does.

What about parks its a 64 metre radio telescope dish i kid you not apparently parks dish received lunar and modular transmission. What going on???Apparently honeysuckle was commissioned 1967 and decommissioned 1981 hey just saying these magnetic tapes that went missing 700 so boxes.

Some more food for thought :

the reason why thrust cant work is simple
thrust equals = weight in order to have weight we need gravity.
see its like this in space everything weighs nothing so i would say a rocket weighs 0
or put like this rocket =0
                       thrust=0 because without gravity there is no weight behind the thrust
to cause a reaction so no movement would take place.
on earth if you sit in a chair that has wheels on it and throw a heavy ball you would
move back, and guess why of course because of gravity; see gravity makes the ball weigh something but if you did the same thing in space you wouldnt move because you and the ball weigh nothing at all.

Oh yes as long as we are within the earths atmosphere the rocket engine  which is chucking out thrust, weight, pounds more than it weighs to get up there is acting with two important things Gravity is needed to give the thrust weight, imagine seeing a flame out the back of a rocket with no weight no substance behind it just like a blow torch a flame without any force behind it that's not going to move much is it .then we come to the next important thing its called air or atmospheric gasses. the thrust of a rocket engine has to have something to push against it cant push against its self. That would be like bolting an engine with a prop on it to a boat and pointing it at the sail do you think the boat would move? Of course it wouldn't we have created a sealed circuit where no reaction can take place. so in orbit the elements needed for trust to produce momentum still exist, but in true space or outside higher orbit there is a vacuum no air no gasses no gravity not much of anything for thrust to push against and, so a rocket can't push against its self using Newton’s third law.

Get it?

No, you move because the ball has MASS and in space of course you would move... Look at pucks on a air-table...

Mass and weight are totally distinct and separate entities! Is your example above, gravity is directed downwards to the centre of mass of the earth.

cikljamas ..  I asked you this question earlier, perhaps you missed it.


Both my parents have worked at NASA for 20+ years. I grew up in kemah, TX. They always stirred away when I asked them about things like this. My Dad always said " quit being a conspiracy theorist " my mom always looked at me like she felt bad for lying to me. They provided me with a great life, great opportunities. But at what expense?


So you grew up right next to Johnson Space Center (Houston).   I'm interested in what sort of work did your parents do at NASA?

The Honeysuckle creek dish was dismantled and relocated to the deep space network site near Canberra,   Parkes has no transmit capability so you can't use Parkes to communicate to the spacecraft,  also Parkes bigger dish has a much slower slew rate and can't move fast enough to track low earth orbit spacecraft.  Wheras Honeysuckle creek's smaller dish can be slewed fast enough to track LEO.  Parkes however is pretty good for receiving signals from the moon. 

Honeysuckle creek had a 22KW transmitter,  it used Unified S band.

explaining and adding to the Apollo footage as why they look so fake.
Really? Where?
So far I have seen plenty of people assert they think it is fake, plenty even give nonsense to try and back it up. But I am yet to find any that can actually explain why it is fake with an argument which withstands scrutiny.

But never a decorated photographer or Hollywood filmmaker of name burns his hands on openly claiming he went through all the Apollo imagery and came to the conclusion it was as ’moonish’ as it gets.
Maybe that is because they realise there is no point. Those who reject the moon landings wont listen. Anyone that would listen to them would likely already accept the landings are real.

I skipped over the insults if you don’t mind
No insults, just pointing out how ridiculous your argument was and how completely inconsistent it is with someone who has done arts as a major school subject.

some pictures are taken from approxemately the same angle only a slightly varying height and different lens settings.
Still the background moves.
Says you.
Care to provide an example that shows a problem? I am yet to find one.
So far the examples you have provided have been from vastly different angles.

but their extremely close backdrop is in error and moves way to fast when viewing items in front of the backdrop instead of far away huge mountains......
And you are basing this on what?
How far away was the mountain from the LM?
How far apart were the pictures taken?

Yeah indeed ‘ no way it is accurate’ because it shows exagerated angles.
No it doesn't.
It shows the angles someone with knowledge of how 3D space works with how objects appear different from angles would conclude are there.
Yes, the approximate, but they aren't being exaggerated.

Yeah please do !!!
From picture 1 and.... 2 and 3( same angle pictures)
Here you go:

Going to accept it is being viewed from different angles, not the same angle like you claim?

Tremendous amount of twisted logic, ludicrous claims and utter stupidity... 

Gas pressure requires molecules to be in contact with each other, bouncing off each other, causing millions of collisions per second, etc… If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed, so will the one behind that, never catching up with the first one. The third, fourth, etc… all fly off into the distance trying to fill the vacuum by finding their empty corner. So no matter how much gas you produce none of it will ever change the pressure under a space ship. None it if will ever push a spaceship. To push a spaceship there must be some locally high pressure under it, which is impossible since the pressure in space is 0 everywhere.
Incorrect! That is total crap!
Sure the gas molecules "fly off" but not at an infinite velocity. You obviously don't know the first thing about gas flow especially at hypersonic velocities.

There is no need for any local high pressure under the rocket to push it though a small amount of thrust can come from the finite difference between the pressure at the exit of the nozzle and the external pressure.

Most of the thrust from a rocket engine comes from the huge mass flow of exhaust gas exiting the rocket nozzle at a hypersonic velocity.
Each Rocketdye F-1 engine of the Saturn V had a mass flow rate of 2,578 kg/sec and an effective exit velocity of 2.58 km/sec.
This would work out at a thrust from this rate of change of momentum of about 6.7 MNewtons or 678,000 kilograms.

There is a little extra thrust from the pressure difference between that of the exhaust gasses and the pressure outside so the total thrust of a rocket engine is given by:
Thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity) + ((exhaust pressure) - (external pressure)) × (area of exhaust)
And you might note that a rocket works better in a vacuum than at sea-level!

For the F-1 engine the specific thrust Isp is 263 sec at sea-level but 304 sec in a vacuum.
The thrust I gave above was at sea-level and is proportionately higher in a vacuum.

But a rocket "pushes on nothing" except the enormous mass of exhaust gas ejected at a hypersonic velocity.

@odiupicku Good job. Here's the thing though,  there is a much more obvious problem with apollo- the heat.
It's such an obvious problem that it is amazing that it has been overlooked for so long. We all know the story of Icarus, but does everyone know the story of Leonov? He is the original spacewalker. He said, "It was so hot I thought I was frightened i was going to die."
Leonov is one of the bravest creatures on this planet which is partly why he was picked for this work.
So how does NASA explain his account of the incredible heat of the sun? They say he entered an awning feet first instead of head first and became so flustered that his monitors registered a dangerously high body temperature because he was such a woss. 
And there's more; if you get a black belt in astrophysics you can explain effortlessly how the sun isn't hot because of the low air pressure in space. In our advanced institutes there are paussies of top notch professors climbing over each other to take credit for reasons why Icarus would have had no feather problems if only he'd managed to get higher and with some breathing apparatus because the sun isn't hot once you reach space. Of course his wings wouldn't work either, but that's not the point.
For 50 years we have been told by those who know more than we, that the sun is cold in space, sorry, I just had to repeat that.
For more see my 5 minute presentation here:


Now put James Donaghy's words into broader ( perspective :


Well, it is indeed Fantasy the lot :

According to the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/ (http://Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/), for Apollo 12, values given for cabin pressure are 4.8 psi, and for normal operating suit pressure, 3.8 psi. This suggests a pure oxygen environment for the Lunar Module.

For Apollo 11, 12, & 14, during EVA preparation, the suit relative pressures were 4.6 to 5.2 psi when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi, giving suit absolute pressures of 8.1 to 8.7 psi pure oxygen.  At earth's atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi, this correlates to 55% to 60% oxygen content, which gives an oxygen partial pressure of 8.1 to 8.7 psi.

According to the Apollo 12 ALSJ, the suits were already difficult to bend at 3.8 psi relative pressure (when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi).  When the suit pressures were at about 4.5 psi relative pressure, the suits were very stiff.

The following quotes are from a March 11, 1968 Aviation Week & Space Technology article headlined "Flammability Tests Spur Two-Gas Apollo".

"Washington - Decision to use a two-gas atmosphere (60% oxygen, 40% nitrogen) during manned Apollo on-the-pad preparations and in pre-orbital flight reflects a basic inability to make the spacecraft flameproof after 14 months of redesign that cost more than $100 million and added about 2,000 lb. to the system.

"The decision (AW&ST, Mar. 4, p. 21) was forced on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration after three series of flammability tests on an Apollo command module boilerplate failed to satisfy officials that changes would prevent the spread of fire under a pure-oxygen environment."

The article goes on to mention how a 95% oxygen system at 6.2 psi which would be orbital configuration developed problems in fire propagation tests.

Would not there have been serious flammability problems of such an environment in the lunar module? The article concludes:

"By switching to a two-gas system for pre-flight and immediate post-launch activities, NASA is willing to accept an added problem. Astronauts will be breathing pure oxygen during that phase and they will have to vent the spacecraft cabin during boost to orbit and repressurize to 6 psi with oxygen to permit them to remove their helmets and work in relative comfort.

"Possibility of the 40% of nitrogen causing bends if an emergency escape has to be made during the launch phase was considered by officials less hazardous than that of fire propagation in a one-gas system."

A Feb. 6, 1967 article in AW&ST indicates that when the Apollo program was being planned, the primary reason for choosing a 5-psi cabin oxygen system was weight considerations. Added weight (with a two-gas system) would come from a mixture control system to keep the proper gas ratio. Also, introduction of an oxygen-nitrogen or oxygen-helium environmental control system for Apollo would have meant the addition of an airlock.

Just how dangerous was a pure oxygen environment in the ascent and descent lunar module considered to be?

Here on earth, increasing the percentage of oxygen to slightly above 21% dramatically increases probability of fires. According to The Anthropic Cosmological Principle (p. 567) by Barrow and Tipler, "...the probability of a forest fire being started by a lightning-bolt increases 70% for every 1% rise in oxygen concentration above the present 21%. Above 25% very little of the vegetation on land would survive the fires...". "At the present fraction of 21%, fires will not start at more than 15% moisture content. Were the oxygen content to reach 25%, even damp twigs and the grass of a rain forest would ignite."(p. 568).

Ralph René, in his book NASA Mooned America, provides a list of government-sponsored testing that resulted in oxygen fires. René extracted this information from Appendix G in Mission To The Moon by Kennan & Harvey. Here are some tests on that list:

"September 9, 1962 - The first known fire occurred in the Space Cabin Simulator at Brooks Air Force Base in a chamber using 100% oxygen at 5 psi. It was explosive and involved the carbon dioxide scrubber. Both occupants collapsed from smoke inhalation before being rescued."

"November 17, 1962 - Another incident using 100% oxygen at 5 psi in a chamber at the Navy Laboratory (ACEL). There were four occupants in the chamber, but the simple replacing of a burned-out light bulb caused their clothes to catch on fire. They escaped in 40 seconds but all suffered burns. Two were seriously injured. In addition an asbestos 'safety' blanket caught fire and burned causing one man's hand to catch fire."

"April 28, 1966 - More Apollo equipment was destroyed as it was being tested under 100% oxygen and 5 psi at the Apollo Environmental Control System in Torrance, CA."

"January 1, 1967 - The last known test was over three weeks before Grissom, Chaffee & White suffered immolation. Two men were handling 16 rabbits in a chamber of 100% oxygen at 7.2 psi at Brooks Air Force Base and all living things died in the inferno. The cause may have been as simple as a static discharge from a rabbit's fur ... but we'll never know."

NASA subjected Grissom, White and Chaffee to over 90% pure oxygen at over 16 psi in a test with live electrical circuits and switches being thrown, and with a hatch that took more than three minutes to open, resulting in the fatal Apollo 1 fire.

Bill Kaysing, in his book We Never Went To The Moon, states, in Chapter 9 titled "Murder By Negligence On Pad 34", "If any two documents lend credibility to the contention that the Apollo flights were faked, they are most certainly the Baron Report and the Phillips Report. They were authored by two men of obvious integrity and dedication. Although from diverse backgrounds, both Tom Baron and Sam Phillips were in total agreement on one basic premise, i.e., that North American Aviation and its sponsor, NASA, were totally unequal to the task of assuring even one successful flight to the moon!"

Tremendous amount of twisted logic, ludicrous claims and utter stupidity... 
Great job showing you have no rational counter to what I said.

So perhaps I should just ignore everything you said and just ask the same question again:
What is causing the gas to leave the rocket? What body is applying a force to it?
Can you tell me?
Or do you know the only possible answer would be the rocket applies the force to the gas to have it leave the rocket and thus the gas must apply a force back to the rocket, and thus they work in space?

Gas pressure requires molecules to be in contact with each other, bouncing off each other, causing millions of collisions per second, etc… If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed
This requires you to "release" them in a highly specific direction with a specific velocity (which requires forcing them to go in that particular direction).
If you don't do that and instead just release them and let them go in random directions then they don't just all fly out the opening.
That is because some wont be going to the opening.
Instead some will be heading away from it.
They then collide with the rocket, interacting with it such that the rocket is force in one direction and the gas is forced in the other.
They can also collide with other gas molecules, and cause a similar issue.
The continues with the gas molecules bouncing around in the rocket until they are forced out in a particular direction by these collisions, and as a result of Newton's third law, they have to push something else the other way.

It is only if you release gas in a perfect vacuum with absolutely nothing around it that it will do as you say as then there is no obstacle in any direction.

If you have an obstacle to one side, it will push that obstacle away as it tries to expand past it.

To push a spaceship there must be some locally high pressure under it, which is impossible since the pressure in space is 0 everywhere.
No, the pressure is 0 no where. It is quite low in most locations, but in the rocket engine and in the exhaust near the rocket, it is quite high.
If it wasn't, the gas would just sit there doing nothing.

Think about a fire hose shooting water. A force comes directly back against the column of water shooting out. Why?
Because water, like gas, has inertia and thus the hose needs to apply a force to direct the water.
If you put an obstacle some distance away from the hose, there will no change in the force applied to the hose, because the water is the second body for the action and reaction, not just a magical force transmitter like you want to pretend.

Since the molecules leaving the combustion chamber
Don't start there. Start with the molecules in the combustion chamber. If you start with them already out they have already force the rocket away and the rocket has forced them away.

This is also known as Joule Expansion.
That requires expansion in all directions, not going out of the nozzle in a particular direction.

So, once again, just for you Jack :
Repeating the same lie wont help you.
The rocket is the first body. The gas is the second body.
If you wish to claim otherwise you need to explain how the gas leaves the rocket in a particular direction, which requires it to be forced away from the rocket by some body, which according to you is not the rocket.

thrust equals = weight in order to have weight we need gravity.
No it doesn't.
That isn't food for thought. It is food to avoid thought.
Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
You don't need weight, you need mass.

Many people confuse weight and mass, but the 2 are very different.

You can try your experiment in free fall, still within the atmosphere, but where objects are weightless.
Guess what? They still have mass and thus still have inertia (which is basically just a fancy word for mass) and thus still require a force to move and thus still exert a force back on the first object.

Also note if you wanted to go down your rabbithole of mass not existing in a 0 g environment then what it would mean is F=0*a
i.e. for any acceleration, you need no force.
That means a rocket can easily work as no force is required to move it.

Now going to answer the question, or will you continue to avoid it?
What body is acting on the gas to force it in a particular direction?

Isn’t it sad that the only pro Apollo expert on film and photography is SG Collins who we all know as mister ‘lightguy’ because he vastly overplayed his hand when addressing Apollo and the means of fakery in 1969 ?
And we have , what i call, lots of amatures defending, explaining and adding to the Apollo footage as why they look so fake.
The leader of the pro Apollo bandwagen surely is Jay Windley from Clavius who freely dedicated his life  ::) for more than a decade to defend Apollo.
Then you have Astrobrant (2), Phill Plait, onebigmonkey ( used to post here) and a handfull of names responsible for the pro Apollo commentary on the www other than NASA and mainstream media articles.
But never a decorated photographer or Hollywood filmmaker of name burns his hands on openly claiming he went through all the Apollo imagery and came to the conclusion it was as ’moonish’ as it gets.

While Massimo Mazzucco let Toni Thorimbert, Aldo Fallai, Oliviero Toscani and Peter Lindbergh do some real PROFESSIONAL talking on the Apollo imagery.
Not only that, the most intelligent, most skilled pro Apollo person Jay Windley has been giving lots of airtime in the ‘American moon’ docu from Massimo Mazzucci.
Steadily (after the anniversary avalange is over) people will come to grips with this moon nonsense.

Rabinoz knows he his loosing his grip therefor his arguments gets worse by the day and often aimed at me as a personal dig.....

Thanks for that. I dip into the international skeptics forum quite often, but usually the current events etc., threads. The links you gave will give me some reading for this evening.

I understand you’re in Australia. One of the best reasons for the moon landings not able to have been faked, as told me by a colleague, was that the Australians would have spilled the beans on it since if the ‘dish’ they had didn’t pick up the signals from the moon, they just wouldn’t have kept quiet. Probably due to their irreverent nature, apparently, so i’m told.

@ odiupicku this is mind bending for me, hey went and check with my own eyes to see this honeysuckle nasa tracking dish it's a 22 metre dish, Apollo rd, near Canberra there nothing there just a concrete slab and it is ridiculous sign boards saying they went to the moon? What about parks its a 64 metre radio telescope dish i kid you not apparently parks dish received lunar and modular transmission. What going on???Apparently honeysuckle was commissioned 1967 and decommissioned 1981. I do not get it, honeysuckle dish was a massive step for mankind, so they dismantle it. WTF?
I'm from Australia!
Honeysuckle Creek had a 26m dish and was used for most telemetry.
Parkes is a radio-telescope and made an better receiver than Honeysuckle Creek so was used for the Apollo 11 first moon walk.
It had no transmitter, however, so could not transmit to the Apollo craft.

Honeysuckle Creek was decommissioned 1981 after Apollo, Skylab, Viking and Voyager because a better communications centre was already at Tidbinbilla near Canberra.

The nail in the coffin of all NASA crapola is the idea of sending a video image 200K miles away...LOL....With analog equipment and no repeater stations...I installed communications systems in the USAF...The most powerful and far reaching communications we had was HF radio...Which uses the Ionosphere like Ham Radio, Only our transmitters were 5000 watts...You would need a billion watts and repeater amplifier stations between the earth and moon...Entropy of signal physics.

Alan Bean says his mission had no problem with Van Allen Belt (radiation) because it hadn't been discovered yet (at the time)....lol...lol...lol...lol...lol...

So all you have to do is close your eyes while going thru the Van Allen belt and you're protected from radiation WOW!!!!!! Amazing

So, the Van Allen Belt didn't cause them problems because they hadn't discovered it yet? Who knew life really was like a Wily Coyote cartoon and you could do things like walk straight off of cliffs without falling as long as you didn't realize you were in danger??!!

I won't have to waste money on medicine, child car seats, babysitters, etc., because as long as I keep her ignorant of danger she can't get hurt. why teach her not to rub with scissors when I could just keep her safe my keeping her ignorant of the possible dangers associated with it?

I think the real question is why did they even "go" to the moon? You would think that they would make a full documentary and record every moment while they were up there on the surface showing them doing some actual research or exploration but they only have videos of them driving in circles for no reason. People make documentaries here on earth exploring jungles and what not all the time you would think that they would record everything as they ventured to a place no one has ever been to. Just my thoughts on the whole "moon" mission.

"It's really expensive and NASA doesn't have enough funding". Sooo, I researched how much money has been budgeted for NASA.. from 1958-2018 round $601 billion! In 2017,the budget given is $19.653 billion which $628 million above the original request for the agency in the Obama administration. I have also read their expenditures were only 1/5 or around $101 billion. So why again is money an issue?

And saying they don't have the technology to go to the moon. And that Buzz Aldrin refused  the rest of his life, to give a simple interview about him going to the moon And moon rocks given to other countries multiple times by NASA.....analyzed as being completely FAKE, and being from Earth. And the Apollo astronauts giving that "post-moon landing" press conference looking like they're all on trial for murder. And them all giving completely different descriptions of even the most basic shit like, what can you see ?? And a video camera, recording the astronauts leaving the moon, following the capsule perfectly the whole time when there wasn't anybody there on the moon to control the filming. (don't even think about answering that one with it was remotely controlled) I swear to God, or even on my deceased father's grave....in my whole 46 years of living, I have never seen so much bullshit & basic deceitfulness being thrown out to the public, like I do with NASA. TRILLIONS of dollars of our money given to this agency, and that can't even produce a video of their operation. I am ashamed to be part of a human race, with so many simpletons that say NASA put men on the moon have no problem with them throwing away ALL the tapes of the missions as well as the technology to do it again!! Just that little nugget right there should be the biggest red flag. Please, somebody, please explain this to me? How can so many people trust that 6 times with NO MISHAPS, we went to the moon, when there's over 25 hard facts that clearly state it was all a farce!!!

cikljamas ..  I asked you this question earlier, perhaps you missed it.


Both my parents have worked at NASA for 20+ years. I grew up in kemah, TX. They always stirred away when I asked them about things like this. My Dad always said " quit being a conspiracy theorist " my mom always looked at me like she felt bad for lying to me. They provided me with a great life, great opportunities. But at what expense?


So you grew up right next to Johnson Space Center (Houston).   I'm interested in what sort of work did your parents do at NASA?

They produced coke bottles :

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
You don't need weight, you need mass.

Many people confuse weight and mass, but the 2 are very different.
O.K., for the sake of truth i will agree with you on that one (and only on that one) issue!!!

As for the core of the issue, i am 100 % right, and you know that, so i am going to repeat this just once more for everyone who will ever read this thread :

Gas pressure requires molecules to be in contact with each other, bouncing off each other, causing millions of collisions per second, etc… If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed, so will the one behind that, never catching up with the first one. The third, fourth, etc… all fly off into the distance trying to fill the vacuum by finding their empty corner. So no matter how much gas you produce none of it will ever change the pressure under a space ship. None it if will ever push a spaceship. To push a spaceship there must be some locally high pressure under it, which is impossible since the pressure in space is 0 everywhere.

Back the the Nozzle and the Massflow equation F=MA on earth
Think about a fire hose shooting water. A force comes directly back against the column of water shooting out. Why? Because the first drop of water has to pas through air, which is dense, causing many collisions, slowing down the drop of water. The second drop, directly behind the first, will not be slowed down by the air so it will collide with the first drop, the third drop hits the second drop and so on, the fast water coming through the hose pushing through the slower water outside causes Newton’s 3rd Law to push back on the column of water. This is why you need people holding the hose to add an unbalanced force otherwise the hose would not be able to push water through that column anymore, the water column would be diverted and the hose would flop around. It is obvious that one drop of water does not push back on the hose, you need a fast moving column.

The nozzle and the Massflow equation in space
Since the molecules leaving the combustion chamber and entering the vacuum never slow down, never collide with any outside objects, nor with each other, their force is always moving forward, away from the ship. There is no way for that force to be returned to the ship. There is no way for the force of the moving molecules to be extracted and used for propulsion. Their force is carried off into the far corners of space. This is also known as Joule Expansion. Remember that as soon as the nozzle is opened, the combustion chamber becomes part of the vacuum of space as is subject to its laws. A closed chamber is under pressure but not an open one.

NASA is lying at the molecular level
But that’s OK because most people don’t usually look there. The awesome, spectacular and heroic nature of space exploration is enough to cloud the most logical minds. Most respectable engineering schools won’t touch space flight and those who do have tiny departments. If it was really a multi-billion dollar government funded operation, every school in America would have their hands out for government grants like the do with Engineering, Computer Science and Biology. But why train thousands of the best minds of a generation in a field that doesn’t exist?

So, once again, just for you Jack :

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!


You still haven't watched this video :



No, the “second body” isnt the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

In the context of a bowling ball experiment :

The guy on a skateboard = FIRST BODY
FORCE = Motion of his arms that pushes off a heavy ball
A MEDICINE BALL = SECOND BODY

Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) enables our guy to be pushed off of a heavy ball.
Heaviness of a medicine ball (INERTIA) imitates/simulates THE AIR
Lightness of some light object (which our guy could have used in his second hypothetical try) imitates/simulates A VACUUM

Get it???

Or do i have to copy/paste this portion of my previous post (again), as well :

There is no denying that If you stand on a skate board and throw the bowling ball away, you and the skateboard will indeed move in the opposite direction to the bowling ball. This is because, by throwing the bowling ball away, you have basically pushed against a resistant object that is separate from you, (like a solid wall).

So, INERTIA (of the bowling ball) is the magic word (an explanation) that you are looking for (which is behind this fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method.

Do i have to remind you to one other equally fraudulent NASA's "scientific" method that should have looked authentic (dropping a ball in a moving train/airplane)???

I destroyed (for good) this other (dropping a ball within enclosed moving object) NASA's fraudulent method by offering my own irrefutable counter-argument ("CONCORDE" thought experiment).

HERE IT IS : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78814.msg2128697#msg2128697

Now, back on the track :

Pay attention to this very important (exposing) aspect of NASA's fraudulent method (bowling ball) :
In which exact moment does our guy (on the skateboard) starts to move back (in the video posted by sokarul)???

(https://j.gifs.com/7L4J9Q.gif)

BOWLING BALL SLOW MOTION REVEALS NASA'S SCAM :


Long before he extends his arms to the full extent and even much long before he throws the ball (before the ball is fully detached from his hands).
It means that in our "balloon exhausting" kind of experiments we should expect the same result : our toy cars should start being propelled (pushed back) even before the air is exhausted out of the nozzle (drinking straw) into the surrounding environment!!!
That is to say, if we could make the ball to disappear (to vanish into thin air) in the exact same moment when our skateboard guy extends his hands to the full extent (few milliseconds before he throws the ball), he would be still pushed back to the same degree as it is shown in sokarul's video.
Now, all you have to do is to apply this same logic to our "balloon exhausting" experiments and explain to us, why this fraudulent NASA's method doesn't work the same way in both cases???

That's total crap by someone who has no idea about radio communication!

The S-band used by NASA does not get reflected by the ionosphere as HF radio does and uses antennae with enormous gains like this one!

The nail in the coffin
Is that you are running away to yet another topic after failing to defend your prior claims.

You still refuse to answer a very simple question.

As for the core of the issue, i am 100 % right, and you know that, so i am going to repeat this just once more for everyone who will ever read this thread :
No, I know you are wrong. I am fairly certain you know that as well.
Repeating the same lie again and again wont help you.

If you release pressurised gas it will attempt to expand in ALL DIRECTIONS!
Not just one preferential direction.
What this means for the rocket is that the gas created in the rocket will be expanding in all directions, including towards the rocket.
This gas will hit the rocket (or hit more gas which in turn hits the rocket and so on) and thus apply a pressure and force to the rocket.
This force will allow the rocket to move.
In turn the rocket will force the gas backwards, causing it to escape from the inside of the rocket by going out the nozzle.

Once again:
Rocket - First body.
Gas - Second body.

Get it?

Now how about you answer the question. It is a very simple one:
What body is acting on the gas which leaves the rocket in a preferential direction meaning it needs to have been forced into that direction?

I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made. However, this simple concept (of admitting your obvious mistakes) is totally strange and incomprehensible to you and to Jack Black. Whenever it comes to my mind to tell you "shame on you", the next thought comes to my mind in a nanosecond : They have no idea what the word "shame" designates, and they have no idea what "a shame" is, because they haven't got a clue what the word "honesty" means.

Here’s a simple explanation as to why rockets won’t work in space:

What pushes a rocket upwards through the air? Expanding gasses in the combustion chamber shooting out the back.

But if they’re shooting out the back towards the ground how can they be pushing the rocket upwards?

Oh, some of the gas is still in the chamber and that gas is pushing up against the rocket (what the people at Physics Today claim)

OK, but what happens in space, which is a vacuum? The gas in the combustion chamber exits at a a speed of 1 km/s (google The expansion of a Gas-Cloud into a vacuum). So if you open the nozzle all the gas goes shooting out into space within a fraction of a second.

The gas cannot push the ship with the nozzle closed because gas trapped in the combustion chamber does no work but if you open the nozzle all the gas exits immediately before it can push against the ship. Therefore you cannot use gas in the vacuum to power a rocket ship.

This force pushing a rocket cannot be pushing on the inside of the rocket any more than you can push with your feet upwards against the inside of a cardboard box you are within to stop it from falling from a height. It sounds absurd but that is what NASA claims happens in a rocket.

So how do rockets fly?

An object sitting on the ground can only move upwards if it is pushed from underneath or lifted from the side/top. Since we know rockets are not lifted , they must be pushed. Therefore the gasses underneath the rocket must be pushing it up and off the launchpad.

An object moving straight up into the air will eventually be pulled back down by gravity unless it is continuously pushed from underneath or pulled from the top/side by a force greater than gravity.

Since I have shown the rocket cannot push against itself and is not pulled from above, the area under the rocket must be higher pressure than the area below. While I have several theories as to what causes the pressure I have not followed through on them and I do not need to. I only need to show that the rocket is rising due to higher pressure underneath it (as opposed to pushing itself, being lifted from the top/sides) because in the vacuum of space there can be no higher pressure underneath the rocket. In the vacuum of space the pressure will be equal and 0 on all sides ofthe rocket, hence it would not move under its own power and immediately fall back to earth.

I did.  It’s a total mess I’m afraid:

1.  Demonstration of punching the air compared to punching a wall  trying to show there’s no equal and opposite reaction.  No, there is slight air resistance, but his hand stops because he pulled his punches.  His own muscles reverse the forward motion of his hand. 

Hit the air as hard as possible without pulling your punch, and you will sure as hell feel it in your shoulder socket.  Although you’ll have to overcome your own instincts screaming at you not to.

2.  This also makes no sense, because he claims rockets do work in atmosphere, so why is pretending that punching atmosphere is like punching nothing?

3. Pushing a bowling ball or car is exactly the same as pushing a balloon or ping pong ball.  They’re just heavier.  What is the point of this comparison?

4.  Drone rotors work by pulling air from above and accelerating downwards, causing upward force on them.  Putting a piece of card under the drone, alters the airflow, by increasing pressure a little as it flows through.  That is not how rockets work, rockets carry the fuel they need for propulsion.  Although the presence or not of an atmosphere will after the flow from the rocket.

5.  None of the examples shown disprove rockets in the slightest.  They are all pointless.

6.  You won’t find his explanation in any fluid dynamics textbooks.  It’s just fundamentally wrong.  If you find a more credible source, I’ll eat my hat.

No.  Air is about 784 times less dense than water (https://www.theweatherprediction.com/habyhints/216/).  As far as the water is concerned, the air might just as well not even be there.

I was born in 1960.
In late 70s I was member of YU1AFX radio club.
When we used radio waves to measure distance to the Moon, I was a teenager.
If I remember correctly, our 432MHz (70 cm) transceiver was 350 Watts, or something like that.
Not the "billions" (or even thousands).
We didn't have Kenwood, older members made the transceiver themselves.
(When I joined the club it was already there.)

You occasionally send short beep and hope to receive it.
(You have to point and adjust the antenna set, ofcourse.)
When you finally do, you put your mic close to the receiving speaker, beep again, adjust the volume and make it resend.
When you set everything well, your initial beep will make series of beeps with about 2.5 sec difference.
Then you measure time for, say, 12 of them.
(They were more and more distorted in noise but still distinguished as pulses.)
If the time was 31 sec, you know the one beep time was 2.58333 sec.
That way the signal trip length would be (31 / 12) s x 300 000 km/s = 775 000 km there and back.
So, the distance to the Moon was 387 500 km.

~~~~~

Not only power affects the wave propagation.
Frequency does too.
Your 5000 Watts using Ionosphere was meant to establish reliable communication and at different frequencies.
To reach "around a corner", not directly the Moon in the line of sight.

The amateur radio record for 10 Ghz EME was recently broken,  some guys bounced a 10Ghz signal off the moon and established 2 way contact between New Zealand and England.   That was with 10 watts,  and a 1 meter diameter dish.

For comparison the Honeysuckle Creek ground station had 22,000 watts on 2 Ghz,  and a 26 meter diameter dish.

I think your example could be done in photoshop when you are setting the drop shadow effect on an layer, uncheck the "Use Global Light" checkbox. Uncheck the "Use Global Light" checkbox in the Drop Shadow dialog.
I special wideangle objective can create the same illusion ?

The top photographers in the docu understand the same camera's of the Apollo era and have worked with them.
Photoshop wasn't around like now in 1969.

But when you go to a dessert or flat bright area with your car and other items and try to replicate the multiple shadows cast in different directions as shown in the Apollo footage you are a very capable man..... using an old fashioned camera.
Not in a million years you'll succeed.

Ps the Apollo specialists out there are allready commenting in blogs and reviews about 'American Moon'
Not one of them has your silly shadow argument.
To the contrary, they praise their indisputable expertise on earth.
Their only argument us that those top photographers are not familiar with the moon conditions of a bright sun, reflective rigolet and earth.

Your argument about them being stupid photographers who simply don't understand the basics of how shadows behave says a lot more about you..

The sun being far away, it cannot go diagonally.  The shadows must be parallel at such a distance.



When reality begs to differ:

(https://comps.canstockphoto.com/sunset-road-stock-photo_csp16256027.jpg)

It’s sad that several other fashion photographers said the same thing, while reality begs to differ.

It’s sad that I presented this to you before and you refused to address my criticisms, except to call me an amateur.

It’s sad you still bang on about about your “top photography experts” as if they hadn’t made total fools of themselves by being just plain wrong in one of the most obvious ways possible.
I think your example could be done in photoshop when you are setting the drop shadow effect on an layer, uncheck the "Use Global Light" checkbox. Uncheck the "Use Global Light" checkbox in the Drop Shadow dialog.
I special wideangle objective can create the same illusion ?

The top photographers in the docu understand the same camera's of the Apollo era and have worked with them.
Photoshop wasn't around like now in 1969.

But when you go to a dessert or flat bright area with your car and other items and try to replicate the multiple shadows cast in different directions as shown in the Apollo footage you are a very capable man..... using an old fashioned camera.
Not in a million years you'll succeed.

Ps the Apollo specialists out there are allready commenting in blogs and reviews about 'American Moon'
Not one of them has your silly shadow argument.
To the contrary, they praise their indisputable expertise on earth.
Their only argument us that those top photographers are not familiar with the moon conditions of a bright sun, reflective rigolet and earth.

Your argument about them being stupid photographers who simply don't understand the basics of how shadows behave says a lot more about you..

My example is just a stock photo of trees.  Why would anyone photoshop fake shadows on it?

The camera used is irrelevant, it’s just a matter of perspective.  Shadows on the ground only appear parallel if you are perpendicular to them.  They converge to vanishing points just like everything else.

Looks like it’s nice and sunny in the Netherlands right now, so don’t take my word for it.  Go outside, and see for yourself.

Just taken a photo of a beer glass, lighter and battery pack to demonstrate this.  Any way to post my own photos without joining an image hosting site?

For comparison the Honeysuckle Creek ground station had 22,000 watts on 2 Ghz,  and a 26 meter diameter dish.

I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made.
No you haven't.
You have done a few times when you felt it wasn't crucial to your argument or that you admitting that mistake could further your argument.
There have plenty of times where you have been completely wrong, it has been clearly explained that you were completely wrong, yet you continue to assert the same nonsense.

This very simple case is yet another example of that.

I have admitted my mistakes when I have made them.


Here’s a simple explanation as to why rockets won’t work in space:
What pushes a rocket upwards through the air? Expanding gasses in the combustion chamber shooting out the back.
But if they’re shooting out the back towards the ground how can they be pushing the rocket upwards?
Oh, some of the gas is still in the chamber and that gas is pushing up against the rocket (what the people at Physics Today claim)
It is the gas in the chamber that is important.
Causing this gas to shoot out the back is what forces the rocket.
The gas is one body which is forced out the back of the rocket. The other body is the rocket, being forced forwards by the ground.

You repeatedly ignoring that will not help you.

Stop just saying the gas is coming out the back, you need to explain why it does so in the first place.

Again, the simple explanation is that the rocket is pushing it backwards.
The more complex explanation is that the particles of gas inside the combustion chamber repeatedly bounce around, interacting and transferring momentum as they do so, until they exit the nozzle. As they are now heading backwards, that means the last interaction they had would result in them being forced backwards and whatever they hit being forced forwards.
This will carry through to the rocket, forcing the rocket forwards and the gas backwards.

If the gas was just expanding, like it does if you just release it in a vacuum, then it would expand outwards in all directions, not just out the back of the rocket.
That means a large portion will collide with the rocket (either directly, or indirectly by colliding with something that collides with the rocket) and only a small portion will escape.

Since I have shown
You have only shown that all you can do is appeal to pure magic.
You are yet to explain how the gas magically leaves the rocket in one higher preferred direction, requiring a significant force to have it do so, without the rocket being the body to provide this force.

So I will ask again, what is forcing the gas out the back of the rocket?
Start with it just after the combustion.
You have the fuel and oxidiser. It is injected into the combustion chamber and burns creating a lot of gas.
This gas (when considered as a whole) initially just has the momentum of the fuel and oxidiser, which is negligible due to the low speed and mass.
Now how does this go from basically no momentum, to a very large amount from shooting out the back of the rocket at a very high velocity?

Dutchy, I noticed you didn't reply to my post.
Did you just miss it, or couldn't you think of how to justify your claim that the photos were taken from the same angle?

Also, I realised something I missed before.
You claim the mountains move way too fast for something allegedly so far away, but we aren't seeing the mountains move. What we see is relative motion between the LM and the mountains.
So what we are actually seeing more of is the closer LM appear to move significantly compared to the distant mountain.

But when you go to a dessert or flat bright area with your car and other items and try to replicate the multiple shadows cast in different directions as shown in the Apollo footage you are a very capable man..... using an old fashioned camera.
Not in a million years you'll succeed.
Are you referring to the slight variations caused by perspective?
If so, you can easily reproduce them on any flat surface.

Or are you referring to the more significant variations due to the uneven surface of the moon, in which case you wouldn't try to replicate them on a flat surface.

That isn't food for thought. It is food to avoid thought.
Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
You don't need weight, you need mass.

Many people confuse weight and mass, but the 2 are very different.
<< Repeated crap deleted  >>
Now some sensible answers on thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity) please!
I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made. However, this simple concept (of admitting your obvious mistakes) is totally strange and incomprehensible to you and to Jack Black. Whenever it comes to my mind to tell you "shame on you", the next thought comes to my mind in a nanosecond : They have no idea what the word "shame" designates, and they have no idea what "a shame" is, because they haven't got a clue what the word "honesty" means.
I refuse to debate anyone that makes accusations like that, thank you, Mr Cikljamas.

That's very impressive! What mode were they using? CW? I once worked Perth from the middle of the U.S. on 10 Mhz CW with a dipole and 80 watts input. This would have been some time around the early 1980's. EME with 10 watts, even on 10 Ghz, is really impressive.

I just can't get over how some folks can't understand that the thrust of a rocket comes from the hot gas pushing against the rocket engine, not from it pushing on air after it has left the engine and can no longer have any effect on the rocket.

It is very impressive but is helped by there being very little atmospheric path loss - far less that between distant points on earth.

You used a dipole with a gain of no more than 2 dB but the EME link could use 2 or 3 m dishes with gains in the 45 to 48 dB region.

Neither can I.
One thing that makes the "rocket pushes in the air hypothesis" totally impossible is that for ICBMs and these large rockets the exhaust gas velocity is hypersonic - around Mach 6.

No effect can travel upstream in any supersonic flow so the rocket cannot push on the air behind it.
An exception might be if the exhaust gases could "bounce" off the launch pad but this is precluded by diverting the exhaust gases to the side.

Your argument about them being stupid photographers who simply don't understand the basics of how shadows behave says a lot more about you..
But they still seem to claim that a single distant light source must cast parallel shadows and this is a complete fallacy!

Perspective alone can make shadows appear to be at angle to each other.

And uneven terrain can cause the shadows to be far from parallel.

Oh, some of the gas is still in the chamber and that gas is pushing up against the rocket (what the people at Physics Today claim)

You repeatedly ignoring that will not help you.

Stop just saying the gas is coming out the back, you need to explain why it does so in the first place.

Well, maybe you want continue to discuss this issue with an author of the following OP :

[ADMIN: This topic was started due to our recent discussions — in multiple threads — about the subject of rocketry.

Specifically, there seems to be a growing skeptical understanding of the science of rocketry and just what is wrong with it, and why it doesn't work in the manner NASA says it does. (i.e.; bad physics used to back up their special effects publicity stunts like Apollo, "Mars missions", etc.)

In memory and honor of Bill Kaysing (or perhaps we'd better just say in honor of good sense) let's present the science here that shames the Wernher von Brauns of our world into coughing up the truth: their rocket programs are full of hot air. - hp]

After seeing the evidence of fakery in NASA pictures and videos in this forum I decided to investigate the theoretical basis of rockets in space. What I found on the Internet were mainly tricks, frauds and sleights of hand, name-calling and attacks used to confuse the issue and hide the facts. Bypassing all of that and doing original research I have come to the conclusion that rockets cannot function in space according the descriptions/formulas used by NASA and related parties.

With neither theory on its side nor reliable, verifiable, repeatable scientific experiments on its side the idea of rocket thrust in my estimation remains a fiction presented to the world as an achievement: a modern day Marco Polo story.

I will try to present my findings with a minimum of math and formulae as these are often used to drawn us into traps, causing us to argue the minutiae of red herrings or chase ghosts. These ruses remind me of the joke about on which side of the barn roof the rooster’s egg will fall. How often do people forget that rooster’s don’t lay eggs?

There are 4 major ideas on presented on the Internet, including NASA web sites, as to how rockets generate thrust in space
1. Newton’s 3rd Law : for every force there is an equal and opposite
2. Newtons’s 2nd Law : Force = Mass x Acceleration
3. Conservation of Momentum
4. The use of a specialized nozzle to accelerate the gas inside the ship, concentrate and aim the gas jet

I will address each of these issues showing why they are invalid. In addition I will review the results (and lack thereof) of the founders of space rocketry Hermann Oberth (who designed most of the rocket science for the Fritz Lang film Woman in the Moon), Goddard, who was the first to claim an experimental result proving vacuum thrust and Clarke, a champion of Newton’s 3rd law.

There’s obviously too much to cover in one post so I’ll start by addressing the most popular response to those who question how rockets operate in the vacuum of space: Newton’s 3rd Law, that is to say that a rocket when it exhausts propellant will be pushed in the opposite direction.

The problem with applying Newton’s 3rd is that the rocket’s propellant does not generate force in a vacuum according to the laws of physics and chemistry. If the force of the propellant is 0 then Newton’s 3rd states that
Force on Rocket=-Force of Gas.
If Force of Gas = 0 the rocket does not move.

Why doesn’t the propellant generate any force, it's expanding, right?
There is something known as “Free Expansion” or the “Joule-Thomson” effect, named after James Prescott Joule and J.J. Thompson two of the founders of the field of Physical Chemistry.
http://www.etomica.org/app/modules/sites/JouleThomson/Background2.html
Free Expansion states that when a pressurized gas is exposed to a vacuum the gas expanding into the vacuum without any work being done. The gas is not “pulled” or “sucked” into the vacuum nor is it “pushed” out of the high-pressure container. In other words no work is done, no heat or energy is lost.
This result has been experimentally verified numerous times since its discovery in the 1850’s.
[for example a paper in the Journal of Physical Chemistry from 1902: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/j150043a002]

As if Free Expansion wasn’t enough to invalidate the theory of rockets producing a force in a vacuum there is also a result from thermodynamics:
Work = Pressure x Change_in_Volume
that is easily found searching for “W=PV”
http://lsc.ucdavis.edu/~ahart/Alicia2B/Thermo.pdf
If the pressure of a system is 0 then the work done by the expanding gas into that system is 0. Gas expanding in a vacuum doing no work agrees with Free Expansion. This can also be understood as the gas meets no resistance as it exits into the vacuum and thus transfers neither heat nor energy to its surroundings. If the gas loses neither heat nor energy then it has done no work.

At this point we have a rocket with high-pressure gas generated from liquid fuel that can release the gas into a vacuum but has no way to produce a force while doing so. As soon as the nozzle is opened the gasses escape without doing any work. Therefore the 3rd Law is rendered useless.

As it turns out NASA does not fall into the 3rd Law trap (nor does it go around correcting all the sites who do) instead claiming that thrust of a space rocket is generated using what I call The Wrong Formula, an egregious farce of Newton's 2nd law which I will address in a later next post.

To recap: Newton’s 3rd Law, the number one response on the Internet to how a rocket generates thrust in space, is invalid in this context. NASA itself avoids using Newton’s 3rd Law as the reason why their rockets work so well in space choosing to use Newton’s 2nd Law instead. I will show in a later post why NASA’s use the 2nd Law is equally invalid and in fact a hideous misrepresentation of the laws of physics that would give a freshman college student a failing grade yet earns NASA an "A" thanks to its pretty pictures, dramatic story lines, and gutsy champions, the astronauts.


A COMMON OBJECTION :

Quote
On Earth, shooting something causes friction with the thing being shot. Least of all, air all around us. The shooter will be effected by the action of shooting. However, in a vacuum, there being no friction with anything, shooting something just wastes that thing and sends it soaring uselessly into the void.

But if that's true, then you're saying a gun (by a magic gunman and gun that can exist and fire in a perfect vacuum) would not be pushed back by the bullet, it would just eject the bullet without an effect on the gun or the arm of the gunman? Simply because of a lack of air pressure and friction and so on?

So there is no jet propulsion that would work because any explosive reaction that could even occur in space would be wasted in it completely.

THE PROPER ANSWER TO OBJECTION ABOVE :

Short answer: Yes a gun recoils in space. No, the analogy does not apply to rockets.

Longer version: Shooting a gun in space would happen theoretically as follows: pressurized gas accelerates the bullet through the barrel until the bullet leaves the muzzle. At that point the gas that was pushing the bullet escapes without doing any more work i.e. via free expansion. The energy of the bullet (its momentum) travels with the bullet and the gun recoils by principle of conservation of momentum.

The gun analogy does not apply to a NASA-type space rocket as their pressurized gas escapes without doing any work at all. A NASA rocket is a gun without a bullet.

AN EXCERPT FROM ONE OTHER COMMENT POSTED WITHIN THE SAME THREAD :

Quote
I think I see what you mean. To try to put this in unnecessarily simple layman's terms: because the vacuum is just complete void, it can freely take on just about an infinite amount of anything, at any rate, without actually anything significant happening. Hence, we hold on to the idea that mass exiting a craft into a vacuum would actually cause any motion in the craft only because we are used to such behavior in a non-vacuum.

THE RESPOND TO THE COMMENT ABOVE :

You are correct, in addition to the gas leaving the ship for "free" (doing no work, exerting no force) the change in the mass of the rocket due to the escaped gas has nothing to do with rocket propulsion. In order for "lost mass" to exert force the ship MUST be accelerating. The formula is:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

If Acceleration is 0 then force is 0 no matter what the mass or how it is changes over time.

Put another way, if the force of the gas (force = 0) exiting the ship didn't cause the ship to move (the ship isn't accelerating) due to free expansion then looking at the problem from the perspective of the mass of the gas leaving the ship won't magically cause the ship to move all of a sudden.

NASA tries to pull this nonsense as well as some other ridiculous fake science stunts to make it seem like their rockets have a chance to function in a vacuum.

The nail in the coffin of all NASA crapola is the idea of sending a video image 200K miles away...LOL....With analog equipment and no repeater stations...I installed communications systems in the USAF...The most powerful and far reaching communications we had was HF radio...Which uses the Ionosphere like Ham Radio, Only our transmitters were 5000 watts...You would need a billion watts and repeater amplifier stations between the earth and moon...Entropy of signal physics.

I was born in 1960.
In late 70s I was member of YU1AFX radio club.
When we used radio waves to measure distance to the Moon, I was a teenager.
If I remember correctly, our 432MHz (70 cm) transceiver was 350 Watts, or something like that.
Not the "billions" (or even thousands).
We didn't have Kenwood, older members made the transceiver themselves.
(When I joined the club it was already there.)

You occasionally send short beep and hope to receive it.
(You have to point and adjust the antenna set, ofcourse.)
When you finally do, you put your mic close to the receiving speaker, beep again, adjust the volume and make it resend.
When you set everything well, your initial beep will make series of beeps with about 2.5 sec difference.
Then you measure time for, say, 12 of them.
(They were more and more distorted in noise but still distinguished as pulses.)
If the time was 31 sec, you know the one beep time was 2.58333 sec.
That way the signal trip length would be (31 / 12) s x 300 000 km/s = 775 000 km there and back.
So, the distance to the Moon was 387 500 km.

Not only power affects the wave propagation.
Frequency does too.
Your 5000 Watts using Ionosphere was meant to establish reliable communication and at different frequencies.
To reach "around a corner", not directly the Moon in the line of sight.

1. What is your point?
2. You are an adult person and you still believe in moon-landing fairytale?
3. So, you openly admit the veracity of your notorious diagnose (the nature of your "illness") : NASA shill???

<< Read the following! >>
You dare post accusations like this:
I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made. However, this simple concept (of admitting your obvious mistakes) is totally strange and incomprehensible to you and to Jack Black. Whenever it comes to my mind to tell you "shame on you", the next thought comes to my mind in a nanosecond : They have no idea what the word "shame" designates, and they have no idea what "a shame" is, because they haven't got a clue what the word "honesty" means.
Now firstly please point out where either JackBlack or I made mistakes we should admit to.
I can't claim to always be correct but if you can prove I made mistakes please point them out.

But it would appear that you do not simply "make mistakes" you used at least two obviously "Photoshopped" images in one of the few of your videos I've bothered to watch, the EIFFEL TOWER PROOF:

EIFFEL TOWER PROOF :

It starts with the question, "How would earth look from the moon?" And at 0:30 in that video we find this image:

Of course the light comes from different directions! That is not a genuine NASA photo.

Now, Mr Cikljamas, either YOU show me the originals of those photos in the official NASA archives or admit to your deception.

If you are going to accuse NASA of lying that you should use genuine NASA photos and not ones "Photoshopped" to look obviously wrong!

Your response and apology would be greatly appreciated!

No retro-reflector mirrors are needed to have been placed on the Moon to reflect back signals to Earth.

"Four years ago (1962) a ruby laser considerably smaller than those now available, shot a series of pulses at the Moon, 240000 miles away. The beams illuminated a spot less than two miles in diameter, and were reflected back to Earth with enough strength to be measured by ultra sensitive electronic equipment."

1. My point is that my personal experience saves me from being convinced into some incorrect "need of billions of Watts to reach Moon".

Rabinoz, feel free to scrutinize (with your analytic mind) this APOLLO conundrum :

James Donaghy 2 years ago
@odiupicku Good job. Here's the thing though,  there is a much more obvious problem with apollo- the heat.
It's such an obvious problem that it is amazing that it has been overlooked for so long. We all know the story of Icarus, but does everyone know the story of Leonov? He is the original spacewalker. He said, "It was so hot I thought I was frightened i was going to die."
Leonov is one of the bravest creatures on this planet which is partly why he was picked for this work.
So how does NASA explain his account of the incredible heat of the sun? They say he entered an awning feet first instead of head first and became so flustered that his monitors registered a dangerously high body temperature because he was such a woss. 
And there's more; if you get a black belt in astrophysics you can explain effortlessly how the sun isn't hot because of the low air pressure in space. In our advanced institutes there are paussies of top notch professors climbing over each other to take credit for reasons why Icarus would have had no feather problems if only he'd managed to get higher and with some breathing apparatus because the sun isn't hot once you reach space. Of course his wings wouldn't work either, but that's not the point.
For 50 years we have been told by those who know more than we, that the sun is cold in space, sorry, I just had to repeat that.
For more see my 5 minute presentation here:


Now put James Donaghy's words into broader ( perspective :


Well, it is indeed Fantasy the lot :

According to the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/ (http://Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/), for Apollo 12, values given for cabin pressure are 4.8 psi, and for normal operating suit pressure, 3.8 psi. This suggests a pure oxygen environment for the Lunar Module.

For Apollo 11, 12, & 14, during EVA preparation, the suit relative pressures were 4.6 to 5.2 psi when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi, giving suit absolute pressures of 8.1 to 8.7 psi pure oxygen.  At earth's atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi, this correlates to 55% to 60% oxygen content, which gives an oxygen partial pressure of 8.1 to 8.7 psi.

According to the Apollo 12 ALSJ, the suits were already difficult to bend at 3.8 psi relative pressure (when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi).  When the suit pressures were at about 4.5 psi relative pressure, the suits were very stiff.

The following quotes are from a March 11, 1968 Aviation Week & Space Technology article headlined "Flammability Tests Spur Two-Gas Apollo".

"Washington - Decision to use a two-gas atmosphere (60% oxygen, 40% nitrogen) during manned Apollo on-the-pad preparations and in pre-orbital flight reflects a basic inability to make the spacecraft flameproof after 14 months of redesign that cost more than $100 million and added about 2,000 lb. to the system.

"The decision (AW&ST, Mar. 4, p. 21) was forced on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration after three series of flammability tests on an Apollo command module boilerplate failed to satisfy officials that changes would prevent the spread of fire under a pure-oxygen environment."

The article goes on to mention how a 95% oxygen system at 6.2 psi which would be orbital configuration developed problems in fire propagation tests.

Would not there have been serious flammability problems of such an environment in the lunar module? The article concludes:

"By switching to a two-gas system for pre-flight and immediate post-launch activities, NASA is willing to accept an added problem. Astronauts will be breathing pure oxygen during that phase and they will have to vent the spacecraft cabin during boost to orbit and repressurize to 6 psi with oxygen to permit them to remove their helmets and work in relative comfort.

"Possibility of the 40% of nitrogen causing bends if an emergency escape has to be made during the launch phase was considered by officials less hazardous than that of fire propagation in a one-gas system."

A Feb. 6, 1967 article in AW&ST indicates that when the Apollo program was being planned, the primary reason for choosing a 5-psi cabin oxygen system was weight considerations. Added weight (with a two-gas system) would come from a mixture control system to keep the proper gas ratio. Also, introduction of an oxygen-nitrogen or oxygen-helium environmental control system for Apollo would have meant the addition of an airlock.

Just how dangerous was a pure oxygen environment in the ascent and descent lunar module considered to be?

Here on earth, increasing the percentage of oxygen to slightly above 21% dramatically increases probability of fires. According to The Anthropic Cosmological Principle (p. 567) by Barrow and Tipler, "...the probability of a forest fire being started by a lightning-bolt increases 70% for every 1% rise in oxygen concentration above the present 21%. Above 25% very little of the vegetation on land would survive the fires...". "At the present fraction of 21%, fires will not start at more than 15% moisture content. Were the oxygen content to reach 25%, even damp twigs and the grass of a rain forest would ignite."(p. 568).

Ralph René, in his book NASA Mooned America, provides a list of government-sponsored testing that resulted in oxygen fires. René extracted this information from Appendix G in Mission To The Moon by Kennan & Harvey. Here are some tests on that list:

"September 9, 1962 - The first known fire occurred in the Space Cabin Simulator at Brooks Air Force Base in a chamber using 100% oxygen at 5 psi. It was explosive and involved the carbon dioxide scrubber. Both occupants collapsed from smoke inhalation before being rescued."

"November 17, 1962 - Another incident using 100% oxygen at 5 psi in a chamber at the Navy Laboratory (ACEL). There were four occupants in the chamber, but the simple replacing of a burned-out light bulb caused their clothes to catch on fire. They escaped in 40 seconds but all suffered burns. Two were seriously injured. In addition an asbestos 'safety' blanket caught fire and burned causing one man's hand to catch fire."

"April 28, 1966 - More Apollo equipment was destroyed as it was being tested under 100% oxygen and 5 psi at the Apollo Environmental Control System in Torrance, CA."

"January 1, 1967 - The last known test was over three weeks before Grissom, Chaffee & White suffered immolation. Two men were handling 16 rabbits in a chamber of 100% oxygen at 7.2 psi at Brooks Air Force Base and all living things died in the inferno. The cause may have been as simple as a static discharge from a rabbit's fur ... but we'll never know."

NASA subjected Grissom, White and Chaffee to over 90% pure oxygen at over 16 psi in a test with live electrical circuits and switches being thrown, and with a hatch that took more than three minutes to open, resulting in the fatal Apollo 1 fire.

Bill Kaysing, in his book We Never Went To The Moon, states, in Chapter 9 titled "Murder By Negligence On Pad 34", "If any two documents lend credibility to the contention that the Apollo flights were faked, they are most certainly the Baron Report and the Phillips Report. They were authored by two men of obvious integrity and dedication. Although from diverse backgrounds, both Tom Baron and Sam Phillips were in total agreement on one basic premise, i.e., that North American Aviation and its sponsor, NASA, were totally unequal to the task of assuring even one successful flight to the moon!"

Well, maybe you want continue to discuss this issue with an author of the following OP :

[ADMIN: This topic was started due to our recent discussions — in multiple threads — about the subject of rocketry.

Specifically, there seems to be a growing skeptical understanding of the science of rocketry and just what is wrong with it, and why it doesn't work in the manner NASA says it does. (i.e.; bad physics used to back up their special effects publicity stunts like Apollo, "Mars missions", etc.)

In memory and honor of Bill Kaysing (or perhaps we'd better just say in honor of good sense) let's present the science here that shames the Wernher von Brauns of our world into coughing up the truth: their rocket programs are full of hot air. - hp]

After seeing the evidence of fakery in NASA pictures and videos in this forum I decided to investigate the theoretical basis of rockets in space. What I found on the Internet were mainly tricks, frauds and sleights of hand, name-calling and attacks used to confuse the issue and hide the facts. Bypassing all of that and doing original research I have come to the conclusion that rockets cannot function in space according the descriptions/formulas used by NASA and related parties.

Not a great start, opening with the alleged misdeeds of NASA, engineers and scientists, before claiming to do an objective analysis, but never mind.

Quote
With neither theory on its side nor reliable, verifiable, repeatable scientific experiments on its side the idea of rocket thrust in my estimation remains a fiction presented to the world as an achievement: a modern day Marco Polo story.

I will try to present my findings with a minimum of math and formulae as these are often used to drawn us into traps, causing us to argue the minutiae of red herrings or chase ghosts. These ruses remind me of the joke about on which side of the barn roof the rooster’s egg will fall. How often do people forget that rooster’s don’t lay eggs?

Maths is not a ruse or a red herring.  It’s fine to try to explain qualitatively without maths, but you can’t just dismiss the actual maths used by scientists and engineers as “a trap”.

Quote
There are 4 major ideas on presented on the Internet, including NASA web sites, as to how rockets generate thrust in space
1. Newton’s 3rd Law : for every force there is an equal and opposite
2. Newtons’s 2nd Law : Force = Mass x Acceleration
3. Conservation of Momentum
4. The use of a specialized nozzle to accelerate the gas inside the ship, concentrate and aim the gas jet

Really its just different ways of describing the same thing.  Conservation of Momentum is a way of expressing Newton’s laws, one that’s particularly handy for fluid studies.  It’s also the easiest way to think about it, IMO.

Quote
I will address each of these issues showing why they are invalid. In addition I will review the results (and lack thereof) of the founders of space rocketry Hermann Oberth (who designed most of the rocket science for the Fritz Lang film Woman in the Moon), Goddard, who was the first to claim an experimental result proving vacuum thrust and Clarke, a champion of Newton’s 3rd law.

There’s obviously too much to cover in one post so I’ll start by addressing the most popular response to those who question how rockets operate in the vacuum of space: Newton’s 3rd Law, that is to say that a rocket when it exhausts propellant will be pushed in the opposite direction.

The problem with applying Newton’s 3rd is that the rocket’s propellant does not generate force in a vacuum according to the laws of physics and chemistry. If the force of the propellant is 0 then Newton’s 3rd states that
Force on Rocket=-Force of Gas.
If Force of Gas = 0 the rocket does not move.

We’ve been through all this.  Whatever “laws of physics and chemistry” this guy thinks he has do not appear in any of my textbooks.

Quote
Why doesn’t the propellant generate any force, it's expanding, right?
There is something known as “Free Expansion” or the “Joule-Thomson” effect, named after James Prescott Joule and J.J. Thompson two of the founders of the field of Physical Chemistry.
http://www.etomica.org/app/modules/sites/JouleThomson/Background2.html

Free expansion is otherwise known as Joule expansion.  The Joule-Thompson effect follows on from that, describing uses in things like refrigeration systems.

Not a big deal, but the next part is.

Quote
Free Expansion states that when a pressurized gas is exposed to a vacuum the gas expanding into the vacuum without any work being done. The gas is not “pulled” or “sucked” into the vacuum nor is it “pushed” out of the high-pressure container. In other words no work is done, no heat or energy is lost.

This is a complete misappropriation of the principle of free expansion. 

Firstly, it’s all backwards.  We don’t use the principle of free expansion to prove that expanding gases never do work.  Instead we say that a particular system can be assumed to operate under free expansion (ideal gas law, adiabatic process) to simplify the problem.  As opposed to something like a gas turbine where gases expand and do work.

Secondly, the classic example  describes a closed system.  Gas is released from one chamber into a vacuum chamber however both chambers and the gas are considered the total system.  There is no work done by the system to its surroundings.

That is not how a rocket works.  A rocket has an open system with gases expelled out of it.

Quote
This result has been experimentally verified numerous times since its discovery in the 1850’s.
[for example a paper in the Journal of Physical Chemistry from 1902: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/j150043a002]

Yeah, verified by people who understand how to apply it properly.

The rest is basically the same argument repeated.  Not very concise, is it?

Force on Rocket=-Force of Gas.
If Force of Gas = 0 the rocket does not move.
Have you ever seen the exhaust gasses coming out of a rocket engine?  Are you saying that those gasses are not being forced out of the engine?

Why doesn’t the propellant generate any force, it's expanding, right?
Actually, it's expanding in an enclosed space (the combustion chamber) that restricts the expansion and directs the flow of the combustion gasses.

There is something known as “Free Expansion” or the “Joule-Thomson” effect, named after James Prescott Joule and J.J. Thompson two of the founders of the field of Physical Chemistry.

The gas is not “pulled” or “sucked” into the vacuum nor is it “pushed” out of the high-pressure container. In other words no work is done, no heat or energy is lost.
You will also notice that the free expansion only applies to closed systems (an insulated pressurized chamber connected to an insulated vacuum chamber).  A rocket engine in space is not a closed system, therefore free expansion does not apply.  Also, the simple act of burning the propellant is work, so please stop saying that no work is done.

Also note that, like the rifle example, all of the relevant reactions and force pairings occur within the rocket engine itself.  Once the the exhaust gasses leave the rocket engine, they are no longer of any concern.

@ MarkJo

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. It is my understanding that liquid can't exist inside a vacuum. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Speaking of Saturn V rockets, after looking at some data provided by the Smithsonian I have some questions...

Times and distances traveled by a Saturn V

    Stage 1: 912 mph (38 miles in 2.5 minutes)
    Stage 2: 770 mph (77 miles in 6 minutes)
    Stage 3: 17,500 mph (achieved in 2.75 minutes) an acceleration of nearly 372,000 m/h^2


Questions:

A. Why does the rocket slow down between stages 1 and 2? I would expect it to pick up speed if it were powered by thrust because

    a. the thinner atmosphere reduces wind resistance
    b. it is now lighter, having discarded stage 1
    c. the pull of gravity against it's climb is reduced the higher it goes
    d. ...what is the point of stage 2 if does not increase the speed of the rocket?

B. How does stage 3 accelerate at such a tremendous rate without

    a. killing the astronauts?
    b. ripping apart the capsule?

5. Goddard's flawed test of the theory of rockets in a vacuum.

Physicist Robert Goddard (for whom the Goddard Space Center is named) was one of the first to claim that rockets would work in the vacuum of space.

The New York times mocked his ideas in a 1920 editorial.
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_New_York_Times/Robert_Goddard

In response Goddard set up the following experiment to prove the NYT wrong:

Inside a vacuum tube he attached a .22 caliber revolver, loaded with a blank cartridge, to a rod that turns .
There is no film of the experiment but first hand reports claim that when he fired the gun it spun around four times. Thus Goddard declared his theory experimentally proven.
http://www.clarku.edu/research/archives/goddard/faq.cfm

I claim that his experiment was not a test of rocket thrust in a vacuum for the following reasons:

A. A blank cartridge expels a plug of paper called a wad. The wad is expelled with enough force to kill a person. If a gun propels an object conservation of momentum applies and the gun will recoil. Rockets in space do not shoot bullets, wads or any such solids. They only expel gas.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blank_%28cartridge%29
https://io9.gizmodo.com/why-a-gun-loaded-with-blanks-can-still-kill-you-5972313

B. The gun was attached to a rod which was attached to the top (or side) of the vacuum tube. This is not state of a rocket in space which is totally insulated from any other object. Because the gun is attached to a rod it is not a closed system. The gun pushes against the rod (exchanges energy) when fired. In a proper setup the gun would be suspended in zero-gravity or some simulation thereof.

C. Even if he had arranged to fire a gun without expelling a wad, even if he had managed to simulate a gun in zero gravity and not used one attached to a rod, he still had the issue that gas fired from the gun was interacting with the sides of his vacuum tube. If gas fired from the gun pressed against the sides it would create turbulence which means that the gasses leaving to gun barrel wouldn't have a chance to experience free expansion. Space doesn't have "sides" that gas bounces off of. Every molecule goes flying off into the void without interacting with any other. Another way to think about this is that once the area in front of the gun muzzle is no longer a vacuum, free expansion stops.

(The loop at the bottom is so that it doesn't bounce off the bottom but what about preventing the gas from interacting with the sides?)

Goddard's experiment is critically flawed and cannot be used as evidence that a rocket will work in a vacuum yet it was used as the basis for continued funding, research and belief in space rockets.

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.
Does the gas have mass?  Can mass be accelerated without a force being applied to it?

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

This is a Joule-Thomson free expansion apparatus in a closed system:

This is a rocket engine in a vacuum:

Do they look the same to you?

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.
Since 1 and 2 are wrong, so is your conclusion.

4. It is my understanding that liquid can't exist inside a vacuum. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.
Once the liquid propellant is converted to a gas, then the chamber is no longer a strict vacuum, is it?

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.
That's why the igniter is located near the fuel and oxidizer injectors at the back of the engine and the de Laval nozzle pinches to restrict the flow of the gasses and build chamber pressure.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.
That's why the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen are pumped to the rocket engines at a controlled rate.

    a. the thinner atmosphere reduces wind resistance
    b. it is now lighter, having discarded stage 1
    c. the pull of gravity against it's climb is reduced the higher it goes
    d. ...what is the point of stage 2 if does not increase the speed of the rocket?

B. How does stage 3 accelerate at such a tremendous rate without

    a. killing the astronauts?
    b. ripping apart the capsule?
The 38 and 77 miles that you cite are altitude, not downrange (horizontal) distances traveled.  If you ever watch a Saturn V (or just about any other orbital rocket) launch, then you should notice that the rocket begins to pitch over shortly after lift off.  This is because the 17,500 mph speed needed is horizontal speed, not vertical.

5. Goddard's flawed test of the theory of rockets in a vacuum.

Physicist Robert Goddard (for whom the Goddard Space Center is named) was one of the first to claim that rockets would work in the vacuum of space.

The New York times mocked his ideas in a 1920 editorial.
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_New_York_Times/Robert_Goddard

In response Goddard set up the following experiment to prove the NYT wrong:

Inside a vacuum tube he attached a .22 caliber revolver, loaded with a blank cartridge, to a rod that turns .
There is no film of the experiment but first hand reports claim that when he fired the gun it spun around four times. Thus Goddard declared his theory experimentally proven.
http://www.clarku.edu/research/archives/goddard/faq.cfm

I claim that his experiment was not a test of rocket thrust in a vacuum for the following reasons:
As has been explained many times before, if the propellant can burn in a vacuum, then it can provide thrust in a vacuum.

Is that stage 3 acceleration stat really meters per hour squared?

That’s the maddest unit I’ve ever seen, and I have to conclude was picked to make a really big number.

Can we have that in something sensible, like G or meters per second squared, please?

Edit:  Probably meant to be miles per hour squared.  Which is still very non standard.  One mile per hour squared means it takes a full hour to increase speed by one mile per hour.  So quoting this way yields enormous numbers.

Rabinoz, feel free to scrutinize (with your analytic mind) this APOLLO conundrum :

James Donaghy 2 years ago
@odiupicku Good job. Here's the thing though,  there is a much more obvious problem with apollo- the heat.
It's such an obvious problem that it is amazing that it has been overlooked for so long. We all know the story of Icarus, but does everyone know the story of Leonov? He is the original spacewalker. He said, "It was so hot I thought I was frightened i was going to die."
Leonov is one of the bravest creatures on this planet which is partly why he was picked for this work.
So how does NASA explain his account of the incredible heat of the sun?

I see an obvious problem- how did  Leonov get into space?

Not by a rocket, I guess?

Or does your version of physics only apply to American rockets?

The amateur radio record for 10 Ghz EME was recently broken,  some guys bounced a 10Ghz signal off the moon and established 2 way contact between New Zealand and England.   That was with 10 watts,  and a 1 meter diameter dish.

That's very impressive!
It is very impressive but is helped by there being very little atmospheric path loss - far less that between distant points on earth.

Quote from: magellanclavichord
What mode were they using? CW? I once worked Perth from the middle of the U.S. on 10 Mhz CW with a dipole and 80 watts input. This would have been some time around the early 1980's. EME with 10 watts, even on 10 Ghz, is really impressive.
You used a dipole with a gain of no more than 2 dB but the EME link could use 2 or 3 m dishes with gains in the 45 to 48 dB region.

So, what mode did they use? I quit actively doing ham radio about the time the first digital modes were just starting to appear on the amateur bands. So CW, with its very narrow bandwidth, seems like the obvious choice to me, but I don't know if one of the digital modes would work better.

EDIT: Even if you could make people forget or discard the Moon landing,
it wouldn't make Moon any closer than it actually is:
more or less around 380 000 km from Earth.

Who says it would?

The one who tries to discredit proof that the Moon is as far as it is, as big as it is and as solid as it is.

I can understand your frustration that caused your reaction like this, but changing the past is impossible.
Deal with it.

Reaction like this? What reaction? I am perfectly calm, cool and steady, and in this perfect stability of my mind i tell you : You are nothing else than infamous NASA shill. So, you are right : changing the past is impossible, that is to say NASA liars will always be remembered as one of the greatest rascals in the history of this insane world. Deal with it (with your infamous NASA-nutthead reputation).

Your "calm, cool and steady" doesn't fit with reality of your harsh words, "liar" accusations and attempts to use "reputation" in lack of facts.
This is not about anyones reputations and "whom would you believe".
The reality speaks for itself.

2. Astronauts who were at the Moon also were adult when they went there, mission control who sent them were also all adults.
    None of them see it as your "fairytale" either.
    Some astronauts also installed the retro-reflectors on the Moon that are still in use today.
No retro-reflector mirrors are needed to have been placed on the Moon to reflect back signals to Earth.

'The Lasers Bright Magic' by Thomas Meloy

Page 876
"Four years ago (1962) a ruby laser considerably smaller than those now available, shot a series of pulses at the Moon, 240000 miles away. The beams illuminated a spot less than two miles in diameter, and were reflected back to Earth with enough strength to be measured by ultra sensitive electronic equipment."

You are using an article from 1966 for comparing lasers from 1962 with lasers from 50s.
Instead of that you should do some more research and compare them with lasers from 70s, after the reflectors were installed.

Diameter of "less than two miles" still has a lot of bumps and dents with variabile local altitudes, so timing of the reflection has too much noise.
That is why reflectors were installed, to use even weaker lasers and detect only the beam reflected from them.
Reflectors have much more defined distance from the center of the Moon than "less than two miles wide" piece of bumpy lunar land.

1. My point is that my personal experience saves me from being convinced into some incorrect "need of billions of Watts to reach Moon".

At 5min in this video you will stumble upon the answer to your stupidity :


LOL
Making a mixture and connecting different questions with different answers doesn't seem very honest.
And you are trying to make sane people trust the author of this video? :)

3. Your attempt to declare it "illness" (or whatever you believe could "discredit it") is based on
    your bias / strong desire to delete the Moon landing reality from the history and the list of facts.

The moon landing hoax has been deleted from the history of alleged facts long time ago.

This is one of the best illustrations how obvious and brazen liars you NASA shills really are :



If you want it completely deleted, go up there and sweep their footprints from the lunar dust.
Lack of atmosphere there won't make any winds to do it for you. :)

Neither will the final answer to the "who was behind the 9/11?".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you are calling everyone "liars" and "NASA shills" you actually reveal yourself as military shill.
Army gets $600 billion per year ($718 billion for 2020), and NASA just $21.5 billion.
Yet, for you it is not enough, and you are trying to channel those $21 billion to the army too.

If you succeed, and people abandon Space exploration (in favor of what?), then who will survive when the next big asteroid hits the Earth?

Or when we use up all the limited resources and room that we have on this single planet?

A. A blank cartridge expels a plug of paper called a wad. The wad is expelled with enough force to kill a person. If a gun propels an object conservation of momentum applies and the gun will recoil. Rockets in space do not shoot bullets, wads or any such solids. They only expel gas.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blank_%28cartridge%29
https://io9.gizmodo.com/why-a-gun-loaded-with-blanks-can-still-kill-you-5972313

OK, but a gas still has mass and by conservation of momentum, the rocket expelling gas will recoil...
I don't see why you have such a problem realising there is no difference between a solid bullet and gas being ejected ...

Well, maybe you want continue to discuss this issue with an author of the following OP
If they want to come here and argue, then they can, otherwise I will continue with you, as you are the one in this thread claiming rockets can't work in a vacuum and you refusing to answer a very simple question.

If you think they have a valid argument which directly addresses this very simple question then feel free to provide it, rather than a massive wall of text as I see no point in reading through someone else's wall of text which you will happily disown.

To recap: Newton’s 3rd Law, the number one response on the Internet to how a rocket generates thrust in space, is invalid in this context.
Newton's 3rd law applies universally.
If you wish to claim it doesn't apply you need to explain why, providing a proper justification rather than just misquoting things.

So again, what force is accelerating the gas?
What body is applying this force?


Stop trying to hide from the refutations of your arguments by jumping between loads of different topics.

If you want to move on from the rockets, either explain what force is accelerating the gas out of the rocket, or admit that rockets can work in space.
Stop bringing up loads of different topics.

The fact that you need to repeatedly avoid this very simple question is very telling.

What mistakes? Even guys who believe that we landed on the moon admit that there is huge amount of altered (photoshopped) "apollo" images.
Yes, 3 main kinds:
1 - Where the brightness, contrast or colour has been altered. - No fakery here unless they are claiming that is how it was.
2 - stitching images together to make panoramas. - No fakery here unless they claim it was taken as a single image.
3 - Conspiracy nuts intentionally manipulating photos to pretend there is a problem. - Very significant fakery here, but not on the part on NASA, on the part of those lying and pretending NASA never went to the moon.

Look at the precision before and after the retroreflectors were placed:
Quote
In the next two and a half centuries astronomers used measurements of optical parallax and simultaneous observations of stellar occultations to reduce the uncertainty in the Earth-Moon distance to about 2 miles.
Beginning in 1957, conventional radar techniques were used to determine the Moon’s distance from the Earth to within 0.7 mile.

It was in May of 1962 that a group from MIT reported a weak photon echo from a pulsed laser that was fired at the Moon—which they published with the clever title: “Project Lunar See.”
Finally, three years later in 1965, a Russian group used a 104-inch (2.6-meter) telescope to transmit and detect pulses of 50-nanosecond duration produced by a Q-switched (short pulse) ruby laser. This experiment achieved enough accuracy to improve our knowledge of the Earth-Moon distance to about 180 m. At this accuracy, lunar topology was beginning to spread in time the reflected pulse.

The Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment which began with the July 20th placing of the array of optical corner cubes on the surface of the Moon (Fig. 6) by the Apollo 11 astronauts has made possible a dramatic change in our ability to measure the distance between the Earth and its moon—initially, with an accuracy of some tens of centimeters; and today, four additional retroreflector packages and 40 years later, with an accuracy of millimeters!

Cikljamas, in addressing the 2nd part of the topic, I'm going to employ the KISS principle in explaining how rockets can and do fly in a vacuum.

To begin, a rocket moves forward because burning gases are ejected at high speed behind it. If an engine supplies a constant force, the accelaration of the rocket will increase because the total mass of the rocket decreases as fuel and oxygen are burnt.

Have you noticed how much faster an inflated balloon goes at the end of it's journey than when you first let it go? What pushes the balloon around the room is the air you blew into it, escaping.

Many people think rockets only work if they have something to push against. Not true. They work in space as the momentum of the exhaust gases is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the gain in momentum of the rocket.

In short, rockets fly in space due to Isaac Newton's third law of motion: Every action produced an equal and opposite reaction.

The antennas in those pictures are humongous!!! I used to envy people who had a three-element yagi on a tower. Those things boggle the mind. I'm not surprised they could do moonbounce on 2,000 watts input with those antennas back in the day, on ten or fifteen meters.

@ MarkJo

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.
No, it is not "the principle of free expansion".
Joule expansion or free expansion has nothing to do worth forces and does not preclude forces due the the changed position of the centre-of-gravity of the gas.
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/Entropie.png)     

Upper: before expansion the CoG of the gas is in the centre of the left box.




Lower: after expansion the CoG of the gas is in the centre of the combined boxes.
Hence the whole system must move left because the CoG of an isolated system
cannot be changed by internal action.


Quote from: cikljamas
2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).
Totally untrue! The tonnes of burnt fuel become another system when they have felt the engine.

Quote from: cikljamas
3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.
Irrelevant because your 1. and 2. are not valid

Quote from: cikljamas
4. It is my understanding that liquid can't exist inside a vacuum. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.
Your understanding is incorrect. A liquid will evaporate in a vacuum but for some liquids that might take a long time.

Quote from: cikljamas
Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion.
Combustion in a rocket engine is in the combustion chamber and that is isolated from the vacuum by a choked converging-diverging (de Laval) nozzle.

So your claim is quite incorrect!

Quote from: cikljamas
When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.
What on earth are you talking about? The fuel and oxidiser are fed at controlled rates by massive turbine driven fuel pumps.

Quote from: cikljamas
Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.
What sort of rubbish is that? The fuel pumps control the rate of fuel flow.

Quote from: cikljamas
Speaking of Saturn V rockets, after looking at some data provided by the Smithsonian I have some questions...

Times and distances traveled by a Saturn V
    Stage 1: 912 mph (38 miles in 2.5 minutes)
    Stage 2: 770 mph (77 miles in 6 minutes)
    Stage 3: 17,500 mph (achieved in 2.75 minutes) an acceleration of nearly 372,000 m/h^2
Try again! You miles are miles of altitude not distance travelled so so calculations are meaningless!
Maybe you should get your data right from  the "horse's mouth" and read "TITLE APOLLO / SATURN V POST FLIGHT TRAJECTORY - AS - 505".

Here's another way to think of it:

A rifle fires a bullet in one direction and the stock of the rifle kicks your shoulder hard (i.e. it pushes you) in the other direction. A molecule of gas is like a teeny tiny bullet that the rocket engine fires out the back, getting a teeny tiny kick in the other direction (forward). A liter of rocket fuel has something like 30,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules. The Saturn V rocket burned about a million liters of fuel in the first few minutes of flight and every one of those liters was 30,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 teeny tiny little bullets fired out the back, each giving its teeny tiny rifle "kick."

Instead of thinking of it as a gas, think of it as a shitload of little bullets. Gas seems like "just air" but it's really a lot of hard, solid, chunks, each with some mass and momentum.

The amateur radio record for 10 Ghz EME was recently broken,  some guys bounced a 10Ghz signal off the moon and established 2 way contact between New Zealand and England.   That was with 10 watts,  and a 1 meter diameter dish.

That's very impressive!
It is very impressive but is helped by there being very little atmospheric path loss - far less that between distant points on earth.

Quote from: magellanclavichord
What mode were they using? CW? I once worked Perth from the middle of the U.S. on 10 Mhz CW with a dipole and 80 watts input. This would have been some time around the early 1980's. EME with 10 watts, even on 10 Ghz, is really impressive.
You used a dipole with a gain of no more than 2 dB but the EME link could use 2 or 3 m dishes with gains in the 45 to 48 dB region.

So, what mode did they use? I quit actively doing ham radio about the time the first digital modes were just starting to appear on the amateur bands. So CW, with its very narrow bandwidth, seems like the obvious choice to me, but I don't know if one of the digital modes would work better.
I had a lot of references on it but haven't tracked them down yet.

This possibly has most: Moonbounce on a Budget By Bob DeVarney W1ICW, Winter 2013. (http://www.hamclass.net/ranv/moonbounce.pdf)

Thanks for that link. So hams were doing moonbounce more than a decade before I was a ham myself. I'm going to guess that back then CW would have been the mode used, just because it requires so much less power. But one page in that link talking about more recent times refers to digital modes.

The antennas in those pictures are humongous!!! I used to envy people who had a three-element yagi on a tower. Those things boggle the mind. I'm not surprised they could do moonbounce on 2,000 watts input with those antennas back in the day, on ten or fifteen meters.

I thought I heard of moonbounce back then, but until reading that article I thought I was misremembering. I remember when the ARRL put up the first (I think it was the first) amateur radio satellite. But I never had any interest in that myself. I talked to the locals on two-meter FM and I worked the HF bands on CW.

These days for EME it's mostly digital modes,  QRA64D JT4 and such  see https://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx.html  for more details if you are interested.

Like I said, the digital modes came along mostly after my time. It's amazing that they could and can do that, and those antennas are crazy. But the technical details would go right over my head. I was a CW man, and I kind of felt it was cheating when a few guys programmed their Radio Shack Color Computers to send code. Of course, the old landline telegraphers probably thought my iambic keyer was cheating. I had a bug, and I could use it, but only the landline men wanted to hear it. Once it was just typing on a keyboard and reading the reply on your screen it didn't even seem like ham radio to me.

Sorry for the digression. I haven't been on ham radio in 25 years. Still keep my license current. Not really sure why. Nostalgia for my callsign I guess, and not wanting to lose it and see it re-assigned to someone else.

Physics Stack Exchange: Rocket/Thrust/Gas/Free Expansion of Gas (https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/91789/rocket-thrust-gas-free-expansion-of-gas)
When you're considering the properties of gases there are often two ways to look at the problem. The first is to use the continuum approximation leading to the usual laws like Boyle's law, Charles' law etc. The second is to treat the gas as many tiny particles (i.e. the gas atoms/molecules) and use Newtonian mechanics. In this case I think the second way is to understand what's going on.
And goes on with nice diagrams.

EDIT: Even if you could make people forget or discard the Moon landing,
it wouldn't make Moon any closer than it actually is:
more or less around 380 000 km from Earth.

Who says it would?

I can understand your frustration that caused your reaction like this, but changing the past is impossible.
Deal with it.

Reaction like this? What reaction? I am perfectly calm, cool and steady, and in this perfect stability of my mind i tell you : You are nothing else than infamous NASA shill. So, you are right : changing the past is impossible, that is to say NASA liars will always be remembered as one of the greatest rascals in the history of this insane world. Deal with it (with your infamous NASA-nutthead reputation).

2. Astronauts who were at the Moon also were adult when they went there, mission control who sent them were also all adults.
    None of them see it as your "fairytale" either.
    Some astronauts also installed the retro-reflectors on the Moon that are still in use today.
No retro-reflector mirrors are needed to have been placed on the Moon to reflect back signals to Earth.

National Geographic Vol. 130 No. 6 December 1966

'The Lasers Bright Magic' by Thomas Meloy

Page 876
"Four years ago (1962) a ruby laser considerably smaller than those now available, shot a series of pulses at the Moon, 240000 miles away. The beams illuminated a spot less than two miles in diameter, and were reflected back to Earth with enough strength to be measured by ultra sensitive electronic equipment."

1. My point is that my personal experience saves me from being convinced into some incorrect "need of billions of Watts to reach Moon".

At 5min in this video you will stumble upon the answer to your stupidity :


3. Your attempt to declare it "illness" (or whatever you believe could "discredit it") is based on
    your bias / strong desire to delete the Moon landing reality from the history and the list of facts.

The moon landing hoax has been deleted from the history of alleged facts long time ago.

This is one of the best illustrations how obvious and brazen liars you NASA shills really are :




So where's the actual evidence that the moon landings are a hoax?

What you are doing repeating and posting the usual conjecture based on ill informed opinion along the lines of 'doesn't look right, 'seems funny',
'they didn't have computers on board fallacy', 'flag waving in the breeze fallacy', 'could never replicate the Saturn V fallacy', 'I could never imagine that happening fallacy', etc., etc., All of which is based upon lack of knowledge and a misunderstanding of the science.

In the past, although I didn't doubt the moon landing, I myself thought some of the questioning seemed interesting so I looked in to them. And in each and every case, the answer was obvious. The supposed flag waving in the breeze for instance. Nah, it's from the initial movement by the astronauts.

Of course there are those who know it's not a hoax but cash in on it for profit from the gullible.

But where's the actual evidence of a hoax? In this age of Wikileaks, hacking, cybercrime, whistleblowers, etc., etc., you'd have thought there would be a mass of it by now.

Not for instance the usual misinterprations of film footage and research by Youtube.

Where are the memo's, agreements for signing off the whole hoax to be maintained over the 50 years, plans and scripts for the hoax, invoices for payments, studios were it was filmed, props, retakes of fluffed footage, etc., etc., etc.,

Given the numbers of people involved and the decades it's meant to have been maintained there would have been a mass of hard evidence. But there isn't.

Unless of course it's all in the secret base beneath a volcano somewhere guarded by goons, as in a James Bond film. Which we all know is unlikely.

All those involved wouldn't have been working for free and they wouldn't have been winging it after being told the plan verbally in some secret room deep in NASA HQ in the early 60's. There would have been project and task plans. But there's nothing. Nada, нічого, ничего, rien, 何もない ……….. you get the drift.

And as one pundit opined, those who believe in conspiracy theories of any size, have never run a project with more than a few people involved.

Posting yet more videos by those who think they know (and they just know it's a hoax because well, for instance, the grey isn't the right shade in the Appollo footage sort of evidence) or blogposts by those who have a mangled and misunderstood grasp of the science and technology involved isn't evidence.

1. Here are my two cents about rocket propulsion - a line of reasoning using NASA's own data. As you will notice, I am not even mentioning the question of vacuum - only of ever-decreasing air pressure with increasing altitudes - something I trust we can all agree about.

(https://i.postimg.cc/7L112934/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY.jpg)

Source of graphics used for above diagram:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_engine

NOTE : interesting tidbits from that Wiki article:

"Rockets become progressively more underexpanded as they gain altitude."

and...

"The shape of the plume varies from the design altitude, at high altitude all rockets are grossly under-expanded, and a quite small percentage of exhaust gases actually end up expanding forwards".

2. THE MAGDEBURG HEMISPHERES experiment (1654)

Back in 1654, Otto Von Guericke, the inventor of the air pump (to simulate vacuum on Earth) performed a spectacular experiment. He had 16 horses trying to pull apart (in vain) two empty hemispheres held together only by the force of vacuum:

(https://i.postimg.cc/nVdLLmQP/EXPERIMENT.jpg)

QUOTE - from a scientific CERN article:

"By this experiment he demonstrated that it is impossible to pull the two halves apart against the air pressure, even by using 2 X 8 horses (the counter-pressure by air in the interior of the sphere is missing). During this time, it became clear that we are living on the bottom of a huge ocean of air and that the mass of the atmosphere corresponds to a pressure of about 1kg per cm² or 10 tons on an area of 1m². The reason why we don’t feel anything of this tremendous pressure is simply that there is the same pressure inside our body." http://www.cientificosaficionados.com/libros/CERN/vacio1-CERN.pdf

Indeed, folks: we are living on the bottom of a huge ocean of air - and that is something we all tend to forget. Imagine that: "10 tons on an area of 1m²". Pretty heavy stuff, huh? Draw a big breath of air and you'll feel it! Of course, this air surrounding us (our atmosphere) has a certain density. And so has, for instance, water. And so has vacuum. So let's take a look at this table, at present. I have highlighted in blue the densities which are of interest to us right now:

(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

(Just to put all this into perspective, on the other side of the spectrum we see that a "black hole" - considered by scientists as the highest imaginable pressure known to mankind - is 10 ^+27. In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)

Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me. http://www.septclues.com/SPACE_STATION/RocketExpansionDiagram1.jpg

But the BIG question is: just HOW MUCH power would a rocket lose as it enters into near-vacuum?

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force. (see the above density figures to understand why.)

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

This insurmountable 'little problem' may have been understood back in the heydays of early rocket research - thus paving the way for the ridiculous NASA circus and its clowns to take over and --explore- exploit outer space ... financially.

VACUUM MEETS AIR :


Vacuum meets air. They tend to equalize very quickly.

Imagine if the air in that lab was pressurized like the fuel in a rocket tank.

I'm afraid I'll have to cite Newton's Third Law once again. Sorry, folks - I know... you've heard this one before!
"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to that of the first body."

Perhaps Newton's third law should have specified (and highlighted the importance of) the relative masses of the two bodies involved. The bodies need to be of equal mass in order for the "equal in magnitude" part of this law to be true. Or perhaps Newton DID specify that - but NASA has simply decided to ignore this crucial part and are happy to use the above, less-than-accurate phrase in the hope of getting away with their stratospheric lies. But let's get on.

Now, NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations - imagine that "recoil power" alone would not allow a given mass of rocket exhaust to lift a 100.000kg vessel from the ground - let alone propel it at supersonic speeds.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do. Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum. Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram. I think our poor friend Isaac is rolling and howling in his grave - seeing how NASA is abusing / distorting his laws in order to fool the world. Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.

You deliberately obfuscate the issue... The energy comes from the combustion of the fuel and it's impulse ('push') that propels...
A small (ish) mass (gas) ejected wih GREAT energy has enough 'push' to propel the vehicle forward at high speed...

Duh!

I just thought that maybe I could put it into words that would make the rifle/bullet analogy easier to understand. Some folks here have a hard time grasping the concept that a gas is made up of small pieces of "solid" stuff.

Rocket engines create thrust by pumping fuel into a combustion chamber where it burns and expands rapidly.  This is where the pressure comes from, not pressurized fuel tanks.   Yes, the combustion chamber is "always open" but the fuel tanks are not.  The rate of fuel consumption is controlled by valves and the turbo pump.   Also, a vacuum is not a "force"  It is the absence of force such as air pressure.

Yes they will.

There’s a limit to how fast gas can equalize through an office.  It’s called throttling.  It’s why I currently have a slow puncture on my bike tire.  The air inside can’t equalize with the atmosphere fast enough to make it completely unusable.

It’s the same with vacuums.  In fact for most engineering applications, we only care about pressure difference (gauge pressure), not absolute pressure.  5 bar to 1 bar is very often no practical difference from 4 bar to 0 bar.

You seem to ascribe almost mythical powers to the awesomeness of vacuums, but they’re not really all that special (aside from being a bit of a pain to create on Earth).

No.  Why would it?

Aside from aforementioned throttling from the combustion chamber through the nozzle, fuel in the tanks is not exposed to vacuum.  It has to be pumped into the chamber.

Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me. http://www.septclues.com/SPACE_STATION/RocketExpansionDiagram1.jpg

But the BIG question is: just HOW MUCH power would a rocket lose as it enters into near-vacuum?

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force. (see the above density figures to understand why.)

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

This insurmountable 'little problem' may have been understood back in the heydays of early rocket research - thus paving the way for the ridiculous NASA circus and its clowns to take over and --explore- exploit outer space ... financially.

Interesting. But where's the actual evidence of a hoax and the planning for it?

A rifle fires a bullet in one direction and the stock of the rifle kicks your shoulder hard (i.e. it pushes you) in the other direction. A molecule of gas is like a teeny tiny bullet that the rocket engine fires out the back, getting a teeny tiny kick in the other direction (forward). A liter of rocket fuel has something like 30,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules. The Saturn V rocket burned about a million liters of fuel in the first few minutes of flight and every one of those liters was 30,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 teeny tiny little bullets fired out the back, each giving its teeny tiny rifle "kick."

Instead of thinking of it as a gas, think of it as a shitload of little bullets. Gas seems like "just air" but it's really a lot of hard, solid, chunks, each with some mass and momentum.

Hmm - that's just what I said in my post #213 above!

I just thought that maybe I could put it into words that would make the rifle/bullet analogy easier to understand. Some folks here have a hard time grasping the concept that a gas is made up of small pieces of "solid" stuff.

what about grasping concepts that the earth is a ball?
i have a hard time grasping the concept that people can figure out a bunch of math, go to space, look at the earth, and be mistaken that it's a flat plate.
or maybe the hard time is grasping why someone would think the above.
would be nice if that person could put it into words, easier to understand.

Rocket graveyard

Pritchett explained that his company had permits from the state of Florida to explore seven areas off the coast of Cape Canaveral, where the wrecks were found — an area littered with debris from rocket test launches at the U.S. Air Force base at Cape Canaveral, southeast of NASA's Kennedy Space Center.

"We've found hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of U.S. Air Force rockets that they were testing from 1948 forwards, and also shrimp boats, airplane engines, airplanes, " Pritchett said.

"We have found some of the actual rocket engines, and lots of rocket tubes — some of these things are 30, 40 feet long," he said. "Some are sticking halfway out on the surface, or sticking straight up out of the sand — there are literally thousands of them out there. We GPS and photograph everything we find, and we turn that stuff over to the U.S. Air Force, because one day, it will be valuable to someone for a historical reason."

Yes: Before SpaceX started making booster stages that could land and be re-used, all rocket booster stages were jettisoned and allowed to drop into the ocean when their fuel was exhausted and their work was done. Even the Space Shuttle had booster rockets fastened to the sides, and these were jettisoned and dropped into the sea when they were done. The sea floor is littered with these booster stages. (I hope none of those shrimp boats were sunk by falling booster rockets! I think they warned boats to stay out of the area where the rockets would fall.)

And of course, if we're going back to 1948, there were a lot of failed tests, so there'd also be some whole rockets and/or bits of rockets that exploded or were detonated intentionally.

Post by: JackBlack on July 26, 2019, 03:35:29 PM
I notice you still avoid my very simple question like the plauge:
What force is acting on the gas to accelerate it out of the back of the rocket and what is the second body involved in this?
Without some force, the gas needs to remain inside the rocket.

As you will notice, I am not even mentioning the question of vacuum - only of ever-decreasing air pressure with increasing altitudes - something I trust we can all agree about.
And you extrapolate based upon what?
You also need to focus on a vacuum, because you can't drop the pressure below 0.
The main driving force in the under-expanded regime is the pressure differential between the exhaust gas and the ambient environment.

If your exhaust gas is at 100 bar, and the ambient environment is 1 bar, that is a 99 bar driving force.
However if your exhaust gas is at 1 bar and the ambient environment is a perfect vacuum it is only a 1 bar driving force.

I also notice that this image source you use has no mention of NASA at all, so how did you determine what NASA says?

It is called under-expansion because the rocket exhaust has not yet fully expanded by the time it leaves the nozzle.
So under expansion is appropriate.

The reasons the altitudes are unspecified is because they vary depending upon the nozzle.
So in order to say very high altitudes will be a problem, you need to know what altitude the nozzle was made for, and what the effect of the pressure differential will be.
As such, your extrapolation is completely baseless.

And again, you keep jumping between so many different topics.
Are you really that incapable of defending your claims in one particular area?

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force. (see the above density figures to understand why.)
Stop lying. No honest scientist would ever say that.
Many pressure control systems are based upon opening up valves for a fraction of a second or even longer and allowing some gas to transfer between the 2 containers.
One of the simplest regulators is a spring loaded valve where the force on the spring determines what pressure differential is required to push open the valve, which will then allow some gas through until the pressure differential drops below a critical level and the valve closes.

If what you are saying was true all our pressure based system would be completely useless.

The speed at which it will equalise depend on a multitude of factors, with keys ones being the pressure differential, the connection between the 2, and the amount of gas that needs to flow.

If you have a very large amount of gas that needs to flow through a small opening, with a small pressure differential it will take quite some time.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur.
Sure "explosively rapid", with the rocket being pushed away by this explosion.

I'm afraid I'll have to cite Newton's Third Law once again.
No, that is what we have been citing repeatedly and you have been ignoring/avoiding repeatedly.

Newton's third law demands that either rockets work in a vacuum or that you can magically contain gas in a container, even with an opening in the container.

Perhaps Newton's third law should have specified (and highlighted the importance of) the relative masses of the two bodies involved. The bodies need to be of equal mass in order for the "equal in magnitude" part of this law to be true.
Pure BS.
The relative masses of the 2 bodies are irrelevant when it comes to Newton's third law.
The forces need to be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction or magically generate forces from nothing.

The mass is important in Newton's second law, F=ma.

The acceleration due to the force will depend upon the mass, and  you can write it like this:
a1*m1=-a2*m2.

So if you have a large object and a small object, then the small object will be accelerated a lot while the large object does not accelerate significantly.
This is used with bullets and with rockets.
The bullet and rocket exhaust exist at very high velocities.

But lets focus on the mass shall we?
The rocket used for the Moon was a Saturn V.
It's first stage has a total mass of 2 290 000 kg.
But only 130 000 kg of that was the empty mass, that leaves 2 160 000 kg of fuel.

The total mass of the Saturn V was roughly 3 000 000 kg.
That means over 2/3 rds of that was used in the 1st stage as fuel, being shot out the back at a very high velocity.

So the comparison to a gun firing a bullet is somewhat inaccurate, as the majority of the mass is in the fuel.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s.
Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram.
While you observed Newton's third law in your diagram, the argument completely rejects it.

That argument only applies if they want to actually have it reach that velocity all at once, which would kill everyone inside.
Instead, what they want to do is have it reach the required velocity over a period of time.
All that requires is providing enough force to overcome gravity and start accelerating the rocket, with that force acting for long enough to achieve the required velocity.

In order to Newton's third law you would need to accept that the gas leaving the rocket needs to accelerate the rocket.

It is interesting to note that ... was a space travel skeptic
No it isn't.
Did he provide any basis for his claim?
No.
Was he a rocket scientist?
No.
Why should what he thinks be interesting to the discussion at all?
He provided no rational argument to back up his claim. Instead all he did was dismiss it.

VACUUM MEETS AIR :


Vacuum meets air. They tend to equalize very quickly.

Imagine if the air in that lab was pressurized like the fuel in a rocket tank.

Totally irrelevant because, as you been told before, the "fuel in a rocket tank" does meet a vacuum!
How many times must it be hammered into you that the fuel and oxidiser flows into the combustion chamber are controlled by the pumps and valves?

The combustion chamber might be "open to the vacuum of space" when rocket engine is not running.
But when at full thrust the pressure in the Rocketdyne F-1 combustion chamber was about 7 MPa (about 1015 psi). That is far, far from being a vacuum.

This isolation from the vacuum outside is because of the converging-diverging  (de Laval) nozzle. You might read up on its properties sometime!
This very important component:

1. Here are my two cents about rocket propulsion - a line of reasoning using NASA's own data. As you will notice, I am not even mentioning the question of vacuum - only of ever-decreasing air pressure with increasing altitudes - something I trust we can all agree about.
If you are such an expert why haven't you offered your services to the space-industry and made a fortune?
But I would suggest that you really haven't the slightest understanding of this and this post proves that!

Before doing that read up on the topic in ROCKET PROPULSION Supplement #1: Rocket Nozzle Design: Optimizing Expansion for Maximum Thrust (http://www.braeunig.us/space/sup1.htm)

Quote from: cikljamas

Get this straight!
For optimal efficiency (it's never 100%) the exhaust bell on a rocket engine can be designed for any given external pressure.
But since the one engine will be used from near sea-level to possibly 100 km it cannot be optimum for all air pressures.
So a compromise is used and a bell to throat area ratio, or expansion ratio, is selected.
If the bell is too large for the air pressure the gas flow can become unstable and can sometimes destroy the engine.
As a result an overexpansion of more thst 30% at sea-level is usually avoided.

Quote from: cikljamas
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/sbeq3gu839mhlt1/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY%20-%20Fig%202.jpg?dl=1)
As a result of the above this optimal performance will be met at only one altitude but the penalty for using the non-optimal expansion ratio is not very great.

The thrust of a rocket engine is given by: F = q × Ve + (Pe - Pa) × Ae where:
F = Thrust; q = Propellant mass flow rate; Ve = Velocity of exhaust gases;
Pe = Pressure at nozzle exit: Pa = Ambient pressure: Ae = Area of nozzle exit


Quote from: cikljamas
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/icue2oaifsanl5d/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY%20-%20Fig%203.jpg?dl=1)
Yes, if the rocket bell is under-expanded  the bell can be made larger which reduces the exhaust pressure but increases the exhaust velocity and increases the thrust.

Quote from: cikljamas
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/l8f45mktk81ttw8/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY%20-%20Fig%204.jpg?dl=1)
Here is where your total ignorance comes to the fore! You imagined critical "zenith" is classic cikljamas stupidity!

Please do not try any "assumed logical extensions" unless you know what you are talking about! And you don't!

All the happens is that the exhaust fans out wide, which is easily observed, and the rocket the rocket thrust increases a little.
But it does not increase quite as much as could be achieved with a larger bell.

The larger bell soon becomes too large for the rocket body so practical expansion ratios are us usually around 9 and 16.
Have a look at: SpaceX has two versions of the Merlin engine, sea level and vacuum. (https://www.quora.com/SpaceX-has-two-versions-of-the-Merlin-engine-sea-level-and-vacuum-What-are-the-big-differences-and-why)

NOTE : interesting tidbits from that Wiki article:

"Rockets become progressively more underexpanded as they gain altitude."
So and why is that a problem? Please explain! You obviously have no understanding of rocket thrust do you?
Quote from: cikljamas
and...

"The shape of the plume varies from the design altitude, at high altitude all rockets are grossly under-expanded, and a quite small percentage of exhaust gases actually end up expanding forwards".
And why is that a problem? No thrust is gained from exhaust gases "expanding forwards"!
The thrust is mainly from the momentum of the exhaust gases with a little from the pressure difference.

So, how many more times are you going to put forward this kind of stupid questions : why is that problem, so what is the importance of this, what is the importance of that? What a funny parrots you are...

Rabinoz, what is the importance of this :

Tom Bishop says :

It clearly says the following on NASA's website.

https://history.nasa.gov/SP-368/s1ch2.htm

"The crew checked out the spacecraft, and, after approximately three hours in Earth orbit, the Saturn IV-B stage was fired for approximately five minutes to accelerate the spacecraft to an Earth-gravity escape velocity of 40 233 km/hr (25 000 mph) to begin its 370 149 km (230 000 mile) coast to the moon. Following the translunar injection maneuver, the Apollo spacecraft was separated from the Saturn IV-B stage."

https://images.nasa.gov/details-0100983.html

"The S-IVB restarted to speed the Apollo spacecraft to escape velocity injecting it and the astronauts into a moon trajectory."

https://www.nasa.gov/feature/50-years-ago-the-journey-to-the-moon-begins

"Two hours and 44 minutes after liftoff, the third stage engine ignited for the six-minute TLI burn, increasing the spacecraft’s velocity to more than 24,000 miles per hour, enough to escape Earth’s gravity."

Apollo 15 Flight Journal https://history.nasa.gov/afj/ap15fj/03tde.html

The stack is 40 metres long and 6.6 metres at its widest, weighing over 65 metric tonnes; not an insubstantial load to have propelled away from Earth at escape velocity.

Popular mechanics:

Instead, the remaining structure continued to orbit Earth until a "go/no-go" decision was made by Mission Control in Houston. At that time, the third-stage rocket, technically known as an S-IVB, reignited and achieved "translunar injection." Once escape velocity, the speed needed to overcome Earth's gravity, or 24,500 mph, was achieved, the S-IVB was discarded as well.

...

They are clearly claiming to reach escape velocity of the Earth's gravity to inject into a trans lunar orbit. In order to reach escape velocity, it must be done in relation to the center of the earth.

Escape Velocity has only to do with the speed away from the center of the earth, not any particular method of application.

It is just how we are taught about Escape Velocity. Look at this page from Georgia State:

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/vesc.html

(https://i.imgur.com/WmwN1tj.png)

Disregarding any and all applications which any space agency claims to use, how would you describe this image if you had to put it into a sentence?

One way to phrase it is that the object needs to go straight up, or away from the earth, at 7 miles per second. It is simply what needs to be done. A description of Escape Velocity as commonly taught and nothing more. I can change the "straight up" in the sentence to "away from the earth" if it makes it more clear.

So, how many more times are you going to put forward this kind of stupid questions
If that is addressed to me, there is nothing stupid about it.
How many more times are you going to avoid this damning question?

Again, you have 3 options:
Either rockets work in space,
Gasses can be magically contained with nothing,
The laws of physics are wrong.

Which will it be?

What force is forcing the gas out of the rocket and what is the other body involved?

You now seem to put forward quite a lot of text, without saying much.
Just what do you think the issue is?
The closest I can find is this:

Escape Velocity has only to do with the speed away from the center of the earth, not any particular method of application.
Actually, it is just velocity relative to Earth. Direction isn't important.
If it is not directly away and you are at escape velocity you will enter a parabolic orbit, any faster and it will be an hyperbolic orbit.

Also, as an additional caveat, they weren't actually escaping the gravity of Earth. Just going to the moon, which is still in Earth's gravity well.

Another important thing to note with escape velocity is that it is dependent on altitude.

Disregarding any and all applications which any space agency claims to use, how would you describe this image if you had to put it into a sentence?
I would say something along the lines of:
If the kinetic energy of an object were equal in magnitude to its gravitational potential energy, then in the absence of friction it could escape from Earth.

If only there were text in the picture to help you determine the author's intent...

Rabinoz, what is the importance of this :
Answered in:
The far more important issues are:
  • The usually quoted escape velocity, be it from earth or higher, assumed that no further thrust will be applied.

    It is quite feasible to escape from the earth by first achieving Low Earth Orbit and then applying a small continuous thrust.
  • When a single large thrust is applied to escape the direction does not matter as long as the craft does not impinge on the atmosphere or worse impact the planetary body:
    (https://www.dropbox.com/s/btroyd2ohfsktq3/CalcTool%20Escape%20velocity%20Calculator.jpg?dl=1)
    From: CalcTool: Escape velocity Calculator (http://www.calctool.org/CALC/phys/astronomy/escape_velocity)
The escape velocity does not have to be directly away from centre of the earth. It can and usually is a tangential velocity.
And "Note that a powered object may escape the gravity of a body at any velocity desired.".

You might also do a "Google search" on the "Isaac Newton cannonball escape velocity calculations" that Tom Bishop alludes to.

Why should I waste more of my time answering your question when you have accused JackBlack of dishonesty yet you have you used "Photoshopped" images in your videos?

That sounds like complete hypocrisy to me. If you don't know what I mean I'll happily explain it to everyone again.

Jack, Rabinoz, and co., all you have to do is to put Tom Bishop's argument (Escape Velocity a.k.a. Flight Direction : Strictly Away from the center of the Earth) in this particular perspective :

DANSITY TABLE :
(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

(Just to put all this into perspective, on the other side of the spectrum we see that a "black hole" - considered by scientists as the highest imaginable pressure known to mankind - is 10 ^+27. In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)

Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

- A rocket rising through the atmosphere will nicely proceed upwards in its escape from gravity - as long as certain conditions are maintained: the relative pressures at the rocket's nozzle and the outside atmosphere need to be as equal as possible, in order to obtain maximum 'mileage' / efficiency from the rocket's fuel.

- In fact, NASA clearly states that the optimal running conditions of their rockets occur only ONCE, at a certain unspecified (mid-range) altitude, when the above-mentioned pressures are identical. This, in perfect accordance with Newton's 3d law - what with its notion of "equal and opposite forces". Clearly, these rockets are designed to work best in our earthly atmosphere - and the atmospheric pressure IS in fact "the equal and opposite force" which the rocket thrust pushes against. To deny this fact is pure, outlandish and deceptive NASA hogwash-babble. Ironically, it is NASA itself that claims that their rockets work BEST when those two pressures are equal !

- Aerodynamic drag will of course be a factor in the equation, yet only a minor one - given the pencil-shaped, streamlined vessel. As the atmosphere pressure thins out with altitude, some more speed will probably be gained (out of a given power output) - but this fact would, obviously, have no incidence whatsoever in alleviating the forces needed for the weight of the rocket to escape the pull of gravity.

- Now, as we have previously seen, the atmospheric density range which our spacebound rocket is supposed to operate in, spans from a pressure of 0,001 (the average air density in our atmosphere) to a staggeringly inferior pressure of 0,000000000000000000000001 (the density of space vacuum). Thus, as the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

- The rocket (at a given, high altitude which I cannot pretend to calculate precisely) will eventually be overpowered by the force of the exponentially decreasing outside pressure, its fuel being sucked out into the infinite 'vacuum of space' at stratospheric rate/speed - and faster than you can say "Houston-we-have-a-prob...---". Much like a champagne bottle popping its cork here on Earth (due to a minimal pressure difference), the rocket fuel will flush out with explosive force. Moreover, this force will expand in ALL directions (a bit like the diffused spray of your garden waterhose nozzle set on 'broad, soft mode') and provide little or no thrust. The rocket, from there on, will be doomed - and plunge back to Earth.

And for those willing to argue that NASA may have found a way to 'pinch' their rocket nozzles, so that the fuel doesn't get sucked out in a flash : well, you can always open a champagne bottle with great care, making the force inside it fizzle slowly out in the atmosphere. But such a subdued, impotent fizzle would hardly provide the necessary energy to propel a rocket away from Earth's gravity, would it?

Only a pinched fart would produce the same amount of 'power'(odor-power, in this case) as a vigorously expelled bowel-gas sample. We all know that much!


Now, NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations - imagine that "recoil power" alone would not allow a given mass of rocket exhaust to lift a 100.000kg vessel from the ground - let alone propel it at supersonic speeds.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do. Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum. Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram. I think our poor friend Isaac is rolling and howling in his grave - seeing how NASA is abusing / distorting his laws in order to fool the world. Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.

DO YOU NOTICE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM :

There is a synergy (combined deadly effects (inconsistencies)) of three HUGE problems here :

1. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see the first post on this page : reply #270)

2. As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

3. To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s.

Probably about as many times as you keep repeating the same thing in different colours and increasing font size.  The disagreement isn’t that no one has read what you wrote, it’s that you are just wrong.

Maybe we are “parrots”, but we are parroting the basic physics used by scientists and engineers, not just for rocket design, but all fluid and thermodynamic systems- car engines, aeroplane wings, power station turbines, refrigeration, etc, etc.  They all work using the same fundamental physics.

If you are genuinely interested in how this all works, I strongly recommend you stop getting your physics from fellow conspiracy theorists who are just trying to find some reason to say it doesn’t work, and buy a fluid dynamics text book.

Rabinoz, feel free to scrutinize (with your analytic mind) this APOLLO conundrum :

James Donaghy 2 years ago
@odiupicku Good job. Here's the thing though,  there is a much more obvious problem with apollo- the heat.
It's such an obvious problem that it is amazing that it has been overlooked for so long. We all know the story of Icarus, but does everyone know the story of Leonov? He is the original spacewalker. He said, "It was so hot I thought I was frightened i was going to die."
Leonov is one of the bravest creatures on this planet which is partly why he was picked for this work.
So how does NASA explain his account of the incredible heat of the sun? They say he entered an awning feet first instead of head first and became so flustered that his monitors registered a dangerously high body temperature because he was such a woss. 
And there's more; if you get a black belt in astrophysics you can explain effortlessly how the sun isn't hot because of the low air pressure in space. In our advanced institutes there are paussies of top notch professors climbing over each other to take credit for reasons why Icarus would have had no feather problems if only he'd managed to get higher and with some breathing apparatus because the sun isn't hot once you reach space. Of course his wings wouldn't work either, but that's not the point.
For 50 years we have been told by those who know more than we, that the sun is cold in space, sorry, I just had to repeat that.
For more see my 5 minute presentation here:


Now put James Donaghy's words into broader ( perspective :


Well, it is indeed Fantasy the lot :

According to the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/ (http://Apollo Lunar Surface Journal https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/), for Apollo 12, values given for cabin pressure are 4.8 psi, and for normal operating suit pressure, 3.8 psi. This suggests a pure oxygen environment for the Lunar Module.

For Apollo 11, 12, & 14, during EVA preparation, the suit relative pressures were 4.6 to 5.2 psi when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi, giving suit absolute pressures of 8.1 to 8.7 psi pure oxygen.  At earth's atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi, this correlates to 55% to 60% oxygen content, which gives an oxygen partial pressure of 8.1 to 8.7 psi.

According to the Apollo 12 ALSJ, the suits were already difficult to bend at 3.8 psi relative pressure (when the LM cabin pressure was 3.5 psi).  When the suit pressures were at about 4.5 psi relative pressure, the suits were very stiff.

The following quotes are from a March 11, 1968 Aviation Week & Space Technology article headlined "Flammability Tests Spur Two-Gas Apollo".

"Washington - Decision to use a two-gas atmosphere (60% oxygen, 40% nitrogen) during manned Apollo on-the-pad preparations and in pre-orbital flight reflects a basic inability to make the spacecraft flameproof after 14 months of redesign that cost more than $100 million and added about 2,000 lb. to the system.

"The decision (AW&ST, Mar. 4, p. 21) was forced on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration after three series of flammability tests on an Apollo command module boilerplate failed to satisfy officials that changes would prevent the spread of fire under a pure-oxygen environment."

The article goes on to mention how a 95% oxygen system at 6.2 psi which would be orbital configuration developed problems in fire propagation tests.

Would not there have been serious flammability problems of such an environment in the lunar module? The article concludes:

"By switching to a two-gas system for pre-flight and immediate post-launch activities, NASA is willing to accept an added problem. Astronauts will be breathing pure oxygen during that phase and they will have to vent the spacecraft cabin during boost to orbit and repressurize to 6 psi with oxygen to permit them to remove their helmets and work in relative comfort.

"Possibility of the 40% of nitrogen causing bends if an emergency escape has to be made during the launch phase was considered by officials less hazardous than that of fire propagation in a one-gas system."

A Feb. 6, 1967 article in AW&ST indicates that when the Apollo program was being planned, the primary reason for choosing a 5-psi cabin oxygen system was weight considerations. Added weight (with a two-gas system) would come from a mixture control system to keep the proper gas ratio. Also, introduction of an oxygen-nitrogen or oxygen-helium environmental control system for Apollo would have meant the addition of an airlock.

Just how dangerous was a pure oxygen environment in the ascent and descent lunar module considered to be?

Here on earth, increasing the percentage of oxygen to slightly above 21% dramatically increases probability of fires. According to The Anthropic Cosmological Principle (p. 567) by Barrow and Tipler, "...the probability of a forest fire being started by a lightning-bolt increases 70% for every 1% rise in oxygen concentration above the present 21%. Above 25% very little of the vegetation on land would survive the fires...". "At the present fraction of 21%, fires will not start at more than 15% moisture content. Were the oxygen content to reach 25%, even damp twigs and the grass of a rain forest would ignite."(p. 568).

Ralph René, in his book NASA Mooned America, provides a list of government-sponsored testing that resulted in oxygen fires. René extracted this information from Appendix G in Mission To The Moon by Kennan & Harvey. Here are some tests on that list:

"September 9, 1962 - The first known fire occurred in the Space Cabin Simulator at Brooks Air Force Base in a chamber using 100% oxygen at 5 psi. It was explosive and involved the carbon dioxide scrubber. Both occupants collapsed from smoke inhalation before being rescued."

"November 17, 1962 - Another incident using 100% oxygen at 5 psi in a chamber at the Navy Laboratory (ACEL). There were four occupants in the chamber, but the simple replacing of a burned-out light bulb caused their clothes to catch on fire. They escaped in 40 seconds but all suffered burns. Two were seriously injured. In addition an asbestos 'safety' blanket caught fire and burned causing one man's hand to catch fire."

"April 28, 1966 - More Apollo equipment was destroyed as it was being tested under 100% oxygen and 5 psi at the Apollo Environmental Control System in Torrance, CA."

"January 1, 1967 - The last known test was over three weeks before Grissom, Chaffee & White suffered immolation. Two men were handling 16 rabbits in a chamber of 100% oxygen at 7.2 psi at Brooks Air Force Base and all living things died in the inferno. The cause may have been as simple as a static discharge from a rabbit's fur ... but we'll never know."

NASA subjected Grissom, White and Chaffee to over 90% pure oxygen at over 16 psi in a test with live electrical circuits and switches being thrown, and with a hatch that took more than three minutes to open, resulting in the fatal Apollo 1 fire.

Bill Kaysing, in his book We Never Went To The Moon, states, in Chapter 9 titled "Murder By Negligence On Pad 34", "If any two documents lend credibility to the contention that the Apollo flights were faked, they are most certainly the Baron Report and the Phillips Report. They were authored by two men of obvious integrity and dedication. Although from diverse backgrounds, both Tom Baron and Sam Phillips were in total agreement on one basic premise, i.e., that North American Aviation and its sponsor, NASA, were totally unequal to the task of assuring even one successful flight to the moon!"

DO YOU NOTICE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM :

There is a deadly synergy of these two moments :

1. Leonov testimony (temperature problem) : Leonov said, "It was so hot I thought I was frightened i was going to die." Leonov is one of the bravest creatures on this planet which is partly why he was picked for this work. So how does NASA explain his account of the incredible heat of the sun?

2. Would not there have been serious flammability problems of such an environment in the lunar module? Just how dangerous was a pure oxygen environment in the ascent and descent lunar module considered to be?

ON TOP OF THAT :

How about the stability of the lunar module in flight. Only a single engine is provided, for both the ascent and descent phases, right in the centre with the potential for a rapidly shifting centre of gravity to be off considerably from the thrust vector due to the design.  Shifting centre of gravity due to fuel consumption and astronaut movement, and eccentric loading due to weight of rover or moon rocks, would result in an unstable and unbalanced craft.  The ascent and descent modules have a significantly different centre of gravity yet they both use the same four sets of quadruple thrusters, giving different flight characteristics and handling.  How can the quadruple thrusters fire quickly enough and sufficiently enough to counteract a quickly changing and significantly changing thrust vector?  How can the system remain stable and not loop uncontrollably?  The ascent stage engine was not gimballed, and the inherently off-center, large torquing thrust would have to have been constantly and very immediately counteracted by the small, low-thrust, quadruple thrusters.  The craft has good potential to fly like a balloon you let go of and let deflate.  I am currently attempting to obtain actual engineering drawings to perform detailed calculations.

Apollo was not a hoax, but a straight up con of epic proportions.

Moon landing propaganda is like software code being installed on people's brains. And it's purpose is to utterly warp a person's perception of their reality and their senses, to the point that they are likely to believe all manner of nonsense because once you accept that men have gone to the moon, a feat which I'm not even convinced will ever be within the realms of possibility seeing as there isn't even any evidence the moon is actually this rock in space that humans can fly to and land on, but once you accept this garbage you are much more likely to accept other totally unproven "facts" from these deceivers. Suddenly you have people believing unquestioningly the universe started with a big bang explosion from absolutely nothing that happened 14 billion years ago (impossible to know what happened 50,000 years ago let alone 14 BILLION, talk about total insanity) or that people evolved from bacteria in the ocean, all utter nonsense that can never ever be demonstrated, tested or proven in any way. Just math equations and computer models that are entirely made up. But once a person accepts just one of their mind warping propaganda programs, they inevitably end up believing them all.

I think the apollo missions play a big part in how people form their beliefs about the world and the universe so much so that accepting them as hoax would cause their worldviews to collapse and I don’t think most people today are ready to face that kind of a fundamental change in their lives. It changes everything. The apollo missions are nasa’s way of proving to people that they got all the answers and that everything is the way they claim it is because they’re the only ones that have been out there. Now you have billions of people in the world who believe in them and their doctrine and anyone who disagrees with them is portrayed as an insane paranoid conspiracy theorist. The technique used by narcissists to destroy the credibility of their victims.

Simple OFFICIAL science debunks the moon landing. - It's called Van Allen Belt, the radiation would kill everyone and all electronics. The materials used aluminum, nickel/iron, and titanium would have all melted due to the extreme radiation and temperatures.
How could they survive the radiation and high temperature, WITH THAT SUITE. i think that a bunch of fan could never handle that, cause that (include all things on back pack) will broken and become unusable on such a hot temperatures...Just how... is it calculated to know the temperature on the moon? Being the moon is some 1/4 million miles away? The temps calculated for the earth are not always accurate, let-alone to tell us the temps on the moons surface are such.  Are they shooting a beam to the moon such as one checking the temp of his steak on the grill? A 1/4 million miles away. Forgive—a thermometer was stuck in the soil upon arrival.

Our measurments show that the maximum radiation level as of 1958 is equivalent to between 10 and 100 roentgens per hour, depending on the still-undetermined proportion of protons to electrons. Since a human being exposed for two days to even 10 roentgens would have only an even chance of survival, the radiation belts obviously present an obstacle to space flight. Unless some practical way can be found to shield space-travelers against the effects of the radiation, manned space rockets can best take off through the radiation-free zone over the poles. A "space station" must orbit below 400 miles or beyond 30 000 miles from the earth. We are now planning a satellite flight that will test the efficacy of various methods of shielding. The hazard of space-travelers may not even end even when they have passed the terrestrial radiation belts... James Van Allen

In1986 I was a 2nd Lt. and a newly minted, USAF officer and aviator, flying C-130s. One of my first operational missions was to fly some troops to Andrews AFB. We stayed in D.C. for two days. On one day, we wemt to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. When I saw the LEM and especially when I saw the lunar rover exhibit, a life size mock-up, I told one of my crewmates, another 2nd Lt., copilot, that this is b.s., no way they landed the LEM with that rover. After seeing that exhibit, I started questioning the veracity of the lunar landings. Most professional aviators do not have the balls to even question the lunar missions, let alone say that they were fake. Look at 911, any active aviator who questions 911 will be grounded. Few will say a thing when they know the Pentagon strike was a virtual impossibility. John Basilone

Blazing Saddles, Boyz in the Hood, Star Wars, and Back to the Future are just a few of the hundreds of films collected in the Library of Congress. But we’re to believe NASA can’t preserve the telemetry data from the moon missions. Hahahahahah!!!
Don’t get me wrong. Those are all great films but I believe the significance of the moon data  may be just a tad bit more important. I guess it’s hard to hold on to something that never existed.

ROCKETS CAN'T FLY IN A VACUUM 2 :


COMBUSTION IS IMPOSSIBLE IN A VACUUM :



I crack  up sometimes while watching these evaluations as I suddenly realize how the "brains" behind the moon fake could never have anticipated the way we can scrutinize and study these clips. Further, it must be painful for any living astronauts to see their lies repeated in endless loops on youtube. Their fakery shall live in infamy. lol and God help me, but Buzz is just sooo campy. I never tire of his shenanigans, esp the latest while Trump was speaking. Do you think Trump was trolling Buzz? I like to think so!

The specific thing that lead me to entertain that it's all a hoax is that when I would watch atronots being interviewed on tv; what immediately struck me;was that they didn't look or sound intelligent. But as my mind would be telling me something doesn't add up;it's as if another message immediately started playing about how asteonots are the "creme of the crop", highly educated, intelligent, carefully selected" So my initial instinct would be over ridden by that brainwashed thought, and I would continue watching the interviews.

What is funny to me is that grown 40 year old men and women look back at the movies they watch in the movies when they were little and laugh now of how fake they look now as much as they looked so real when they were little. But those same people look at footage of a film that was made 15 or 20 years before they were even conceived and swear on their children that it is a real event and indeed took place on the surface of the moon.

If some robot like Jesus would walk on the Moon in sandals, wrapped in bed shit and NASA would say that was Jesus,  I am sure millions would believe it.

Apollo was not a hoax, but a straight up con of epic proportions.

Moon landing propaganda is like software code being installed on people's brains. And it's purpose is to utterly warp a person's perception of their reality and their senses, to the point that they are likely to believe all manner of nonsense because once you accept that men have gone to the moon, a feat which I'm not even convinced will ever be within the realms of possibility seeing as there isn't even any evidence the moon is actually this rock in space that humans can fly to and land on, but once you accept this garbage you are much more likely to accept other totally unproven "facts" from these deceivers. Suddenly you have people believing unquestioningly the universe started with a big bang explosion from absolutely nothing that happened 14 billion years ago (impossible to know what happened 50,000 years ago let alone 14 BILLION, talk about total insanity) or that people evolved from bacteria in the ocean, all utter nonsense that can never ever be demonstrated, tested or proven in any way. Just math equations and computer models that are entirely made up. But once a person accepts just one of their mind warping propaganda programs, they inevitably end up believing them all.

I think the apollo missions play a big part in how people form their beliefs about the world and the universe so much so that accepting them as hoax would cause their worldviews to collapse and I don’t think most people today are ready to face that kind of a fundamental change in their lives. It changes everything. The apollo missions are nasa’s way of proving to people that they got all the answers and that everything is the way they claim it is because they’re the only ones that have been out there. Now you have billions of people in the world who believe in them and their doctrine and anyone who disagrees with them is portrayed as an insane paranoid conspiracy theorist. The technique used by narcissists to destroy the credibility of their victims.

Nice rant, but meaningless if you are wrong. 

Quote
Simple OFFICIAL science debunks the moon landing. - It's called Van Allen Belt, the radiation would kill everyone and all electronics. The materials used aluminum, nickel/iron, and titanium would have all melted due to the extreme radiation and temperatures.
How could they survive the radiation and high temperature, WITH THAT SUITE. i think that a bunch of fan could never handle that, cause that (include all things on back pack) will broken and become unusable on such a hot temperatures...Just how... is it calculated to know the temperature on the moon? Being the moon is some 1/4 million miles away? The temps calculated for the earth are not always accurate, let-alone to tell us the temps on the moons surface are such.  Are they shooting a beam to the moon such as one checking the temp of his steak on the grill? A 1/4 million miles away. Forgive—a thermometer was stuck in the soil upon arrival.

Our measurments show that the maximum radiation level as of 1958 is equivalent to between 10 and 100 roentgens per hour, depending on the still-undetermined proportion of protons to electrons. Since a human being exposed for two days to even 10 roentgens would have only an even chance of survival, the radiation belts obviously present an obstacle to space flight. Unless some practical way can be found to shield space-travelers against the effects of the radiation, manned space rockets can best take off through the radiation-free zone over the poles. A "space station" must orbit below 400 miles or beyond 30 000 miles from the earth. We are now planning a satellite flight that will test the efficacy of various methods of shielding. The hazard of space-travelers may not even end even when they have passed the terrestrial radiation belts... James Van Allen

The level of threat to Apollo astronauts has been done to death.  I’m not going to go through that again.

But consider this-  the first readings of radiation levels were taken by the Explorer satellites.  Satellites put in orbit by fucking rockets!  Rockets you don’t believe can do the job.

So you cite “official science” on the Van Allen belts, while simultaneously rejecting the “official science” behind assessing the risk.

Do you really not see a problem with this logic?

Do you really not see a problem with this logic?

Do you really not see a problem with a bunch of elephants in your room :

Apart from an elephants in which direction you have been pointed in my two previous posts above, there are quite a few other huge elephants in your room :

For example :

1. Neil Armstrong and especially Michael Collins have pointed out many times that they hadn't been able to see ANY stars from the moon, or from the lunar orbit.

However, Michael Collins wrote on page 221 of "Carrying the Fire" : "My God, the stars are everywhere: above me on all sides, even below me somewhat, down there next to that obscure horizon. The stars are bright and they are steady. Of course I know that a star's twinkle is created by the atmosphere, and I have seen twinkle-less stars before in a planetarium, but this is different, this is no simulation, this is the best view of the universe that a human ever had."?

See the last part of this video : APOLLO - HOAX OF THE CENTURY - part 3 : It's about Michael Collins contradicting himself : During famous Apollo 11 conference he claimed that he wasn't able to see *ANY* star from the lunar orbit...However in his book he claims that he was very able to observe countless stars from earth' orbit...How about that??? You see, this is an example where the same person asserts two totally contradictory claims (in two different occasions)...There is more to it (concerning Michael Collins) :

Michael Collins was designated the navigator for Apollo 11. In his book he lists the 37 navigation stars they were to use, plus their corresponding octal numbers which identified them to the computers. Here's how Michael explains that navigation package:

"The astronaut, peering out through either his telescope or his sextant finds one of the chosen few, superimposes a + on it, and pushes a button at the instant of perfect alignment. He then tells the computer which star it was, by numbers. Repeating this process on a second star allows the computer and the platform to determine which way the spacecraft is pointing. So we now know which way is up? Well, not exactly, because "up" is a rather fragile concept meaning away from the center of the earth, a direction opposite the gravity vector used to clutch us tightly by. But suppose we cannot even see the earth in our window, suppose we are floating free of earth's gravity. What now, M.I.T.? Back to our friendly stars. We simply define a new up-down and left-right, using the stars in place of earth. All will be well as long as we all play the game by the same rules, as long as the ground controllers send us instructions using the same stellar frame of reference. Now we are free of all terrestrial conventions and can correct our course to and from the Moon by pointing in the proper direction relative to the stars."

Someone could say that there is the difference : Michael Collins was able to see the stars by naked eyes from earth's orbit (Gemini), but he wasn't able to see *ANY* star from the lunar orbit...And if someone attempted to claim such a ridiculous claim, then he would have to be able to explain to us this : what would disable Michael Collins to see the stars from the lunar orbit? If there was anything that could obscure the stars while he was in lunar orbit, that very same reason (an obstacle) would disable him to see the stars TO EVEN A GREATER EXTENT while he was in earth's orbit since according to NeilDeGrass Tyson the only reason why we can't see the stars from the earth (during the day) is the presence of earth's atmosphere which is a glow with scattered light from the sun!!! If you take away the atmosphere, the sun will still be there but the sky goes dark! That is what folks get when they get to the edge of the atmosphere, the atmosphere is no longer between you and the rest of the universe and the stars would reveal themselves just as they would at night! Plain and simple!!!

2. Astronutts' blatant mutual contradictions regarding the stars issue and Apollo 13 case :

Quote

Psalm 19:1



4. Some more elephants in your room :


The lunar ascent module engine had a 15000 N (3500 lb) thrust.  The attitude control thrusters for the Apollo C/SM and LM (which had four sets of quadruple thrusters) had 490 N (110 lb) of thrust each. In comparison, the 38 thrusters for shuttle orbit control each have a nominal thrust of 3870 N (880 lb), with a range from 3114 N to 5338 N.  Why is the exhaust visible from the 3870 N shuttle thruster but not from the 15000 N lunar ascent module engine?

It's impossible to find any images or video footage of any visible flame or exhaust coming from any of the four quadruple clusters used for attitude control of the lunar module, or from the main engines of the ascent and descent modules.  However, official NASA artists' drawings do show a considerable amount of flame and exhaust emanating from the main engine :

(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075184.jpg)
(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075186.jpg)

In the films To The Edge And Back covering Apollo 13 and Apollo 13, animation shows the LM main engine emitting a bright flame for the various burns between the earth and the moon.  In Apollo 13, animation shows visible flame from the LM thrusters during SM separation from the CM and LM.

In the 30-minute documentary Houston, We've Got A Problem covering Apollo 13, an image of the service module shows the panel blown off :
(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS13/10075514.jpg)

The SM is bright and takes up a good portion of the screen. On the remainder of the screen stars appear to be indistiguishable from debris. Photographs taken from the surface of the moon do not show stars in the sky.

In For All Mankind by the National Geographic Society, astronauts are shown suiting up. In their launch suits, the astronauts do arm exercises and wave to the crowd.  From these scenes the Apollo suits do not appear to have bearings at the joints like the space shuttle extra vehicular suits, which do have bearings at the elbow, shoulder, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle joints.  How were the Apollo astronauts able to bend their joints, especially their finger joints, on the moon if their suits were pressurized?

(https://i.postimg.cc/kXpDfZkz/APOLLO-PRESSURIZED-SUITS.jpg)

Pressurized suits give a rigid balloon-like appearance which the moon astronauts did not appear to have

The For All Mankind video shows the ground when the lunar module is landing.  As dust is being kicked up from the main engine, a dark shadow of the module appears.  The ground in the lunar module shadow does not show any reflection or brightness from any main engine exhaust flame.

Why were there were no emergencies or problems from the temperature extremes of -100 to -150 degrees Fahrenheit to +215F?  A study paper for a proposed moonbase uses a noon-time worst case of 375 K (102 C, or 215 F) for a lunar surface temperature.

In For All Mankind, ground control announced that the temperature in the shade was -100 to -150 degrees Fahrenheit.  Were the batteries of the lunar rover in the shade, and if so, how were they protected against these temperature extremes?

At temperatures less than -40F (-40C) a lot of materials start becoming very brittle. Electrical items do not work as well.  Batteries produce less current.  The extreme temperature variations from shadow to sunlight would cause significant material contraction and expansion and would make equipment breakdown and failure very likely.

Why did the one-sixth gravity cause the astronauts to alternate between hopping and walking?  We all saw many sequences where an astronauts looked like they were flexing their knees pretty good to jump but they did not travel any higher than 40 cm. Why? The astronauts were not hopping any farther than what the typical person could hop here on Earth.

There a number of times in Apollo footage when the astronauts were landing pretty hard on their knees.  Were they not running a huge risk of puncturing their pressurized suits? According to an article in the Dec. 1, 1969 issue of Aviation Week and Space Technology, Apollo mission planners were worried about suit puncture and cutting.

After an Apollo 14 astronaut sets up and lets go of the flag, the flag flutters, is still, and then flutters again.  This may be viewed on the Apollo Interactive CD-ROM by Simitar Entertainment.

Jack, Rabinoz, and co., all you have to do is to put Tom Bishop's argument (Escape Velocity a.k.a. Flight Direction : Strictly Away from the center of the Earth) in this particular perspective
No, we don't.
If you want to claim escape velocity requires you to go directly away from Earth, you need to prove it.
The simple version is quite simple:
In a gravity well you have a particular gravitational potential energy, which is negative.
If your kinetic energy is equal in magnitude to this gravitational potential energy, then your total energy is 0 and you can escape.
If your kinetic energy is less than your total energy is less than 0 and you can't escape.
The only way in which directionality is important to escape a gravity well is to make sure you don't hit anything.

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.
You are aware basically nothing of man's has gone into interstellar space?

And again, WHO CARES?
All this means is that there is less resistance to motion higher up.

You are just spouting the same refuted garbage again and again, while ignoring the very simple question which shows it all to be BS.
Your so called elephant in the room is pure fiction.
Meanwhile this very real elephant remains:


WHAT IS CAUSING THE GAS TO MOVE?
It needs a force to be applied to it in order to move.
This force needs to involve an interaction with another body.
This interaction will apply a force to this other body.

So what body is applying this force?

Deal with the reality of rockets working in space before changing the subject.

Either admit they can work in space and that you have been repeatedly lying to everyone or defend your BS.

You dare post accusations like this when you prove your own deception by using "Photoshopped" photos and refusing to even admit to it when pointed out:
I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made. However, this simple concept (of admitting your obvious mistakes) is totally strange and incomprehensible to you and to Jack Black. Whenever it comes to my mind to tell you "shame on you", the next thought comes to my mind in a nanosecond : They have no idea what the word "shame" designates, and they have no idea what "a shame" is, because they haven't got a clue what the word "honesty" means.
Now firstly please point out where either JackBlack or I made mistakes we should admit to and then answer why you, yourself, are so deceptive!.

But it would appear that you do not simply "make mistakes" you used at least two obviously "Photoshopped" images in one of the few of your videos I've bothered to watch, the EIFFEL TOWER PROOF:
EIFFEL TOWER PROOF :

It starts with the question, "How would earth look from the moon?" And at 0:30 in that video we find this image:

       Then at 5:56 in that video I find the following image which I know is a composite of two NASA photos[/size].

Of course the light comes from different directions! That is not a genuine NASA photo.

Now, Mr Cikljamas, you have two options either:
You continual ignoring of this just goes to show that you know you are being deceptive in your own videos!

Rubbish! Your "particular perspective" is totally ludicrous as i show below,
Quote from: cikljamas
DANSITY TABLE :
(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

(Just to put all this into perspective, on the other side of the spectrum we see that a "black hole" - considered by scientists as the highest imaginable pressure known to mankind - is 10 ^+27. In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)
I am not answering all that in one go but first the total misoperation in you "density table". But why on earth do you use those funny cgs units and not SI units?

First of all your "density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> BLACK HOLES" is total garbage!
"Density differences" are quite irrelevant anyway. It is only "pressure differences" that matter though for gasses they are related.

And it appears that you missed out on arithmetic in school because the difference between two numbers say A and B is A - B and NOT A/B.

It appears that you do not know even the simplest rules of arithmetic!
So the difference between (air density) and the (density of free space)  is simply only 10-3 - 10-24 = 10-3 gm/cm3.

As far as a rocket's performance goes or the stresses involved in pressurising a crew habitat is make little difference if the pressure outside is one hundredth or one trillionth of normal atmospheric pressure.

And it makes you claim "In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)" totally ludicrous!

But the density gap/difference between AIR vs VACUUM is just 1 while the density gap/difference between "BLACK HOLES" vs WATER is 1027 - not in the same "ball-park"!.

That doesn't have the emotional impact of your ridiculous and meaningless 1060, does it?

But you talk of densities rather misses the point! It is external pressure differences that slightly affect the thrust.

(https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/Images/buzz-aldrin-apollo-11-guinness-world-records_tcm25-328790.jpg)
Please bear in mind that the sun is about 16,000,000,000 times brighter than the brightest star!
The ability to see stars depends a lot on what is between you and the stars and even more on allowing the eyes to adjust to the dark conditions.

So I'll ignore the rest of your starry claims!

Really? You would know the difference between an elephant and a mouse! Don't you mean more points that illustrate your own ignorance?

Quote from: cikljamas
The lunar ascent module engine had a 15000 N (3500 lb) thrust.  The attitude control thrusters for the Apollo C/SM and LM (which had four sets of quadruple thrusters) had 490 N (110 lb) of thrust each. In comparison, the 38 thrusters for shuttle orbit control each have a nominal thrust of 3870 N (880 lb), with a range from 3114 N to 5338 N. Why is the exhaust visible from the 3870 N shuttle thruster but not from the 15000 N lunar ascent module engine?
Point #1 illustrating your own ignorance!

Why should there be?
Quote
Why is there no exhaust from the LM’s ascent rocket engine? (http://www.moonhoaxdebunked.com/2017/07/612-why-is-there-no-exhaust-from-lms.html)
IN A NUTSHELL: Because there shouldn’t be. Rocket motors don’t generate a fiery exhaust in the vacuum of space. Rockets that use the same propellant as the Lunar Module don’t generate a visible plume even in the Earth’s atmosphere.

Figure 6.12-1. Liftoff of the Apollo 17 Lunar Module on 14 December 1972, as shown by the live TV broadcast sent by the remote-controlled camera installed on the Rover.


Quote from: cikljamas
It's impossible to find any images or video footage of any visible flame or exhaust coming from any of the four quadruple clusters used for attitude control of the lunar module, or from the main engines of the ascent and descent modules.
Because from rocket engines using those fuels there should be no exhaust plume!
The Ascent Module main engine used Liquid-fuel engine N2O4 (Dinitrogen tetroxide, often called nitrogen tetroxide) and Aerozine 50.
Even the Titan II missile burning the same fuel shows a quite colourless flame.

I would think that someone like you trying to prove NASA's non-existent deception might do a little research beforehand instead of showing yourself to be an ignorant fool.

Quote from: cikljamas
However, official NASA artists' drawings do show a considerable amount of flame and exhaust emanating from the main engine :

(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075186.jpg)
I see no "official NASA artists' drawings" but if you do ask the artists. I would simply say "artistic licence" to show the engine is running.

Quote from: cikljamas
In the films To The Edge And Back covering Apollo 13 and Apollo 13, animation shows the LM main engine emitting a bright flame for the various burns between the earth and the moon.  In Apollo 13, animation shows visible flame from the LM thrusters during SM separation from the CM and LM.
The LM descent engine used the same Aerozine 50 fuel/nitrogen tetroxide oxidizer as the ascent stage.
Go and ask the producers what was used in the film but films like that are not evidence and the Aerozine 50 fuel/nitrogen tetroxide oxidizer flame is very unimpressive in a film!

Quote from: cikljamas
In the 30-minute documentary Houston, We've Got A Problem covering Apollo 13, an image of the service module shows the panel blown off :
(https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS13/10075514.jpg)

The SM is bright and takes up a good portion of the screen. On the remainder of the screen stars appear to be indistiguishable from debris. Photographs taken from the surface of the moon do not show stars in the sky.
But exactly how bright is the SM? Whether stars show or not depends entirely on the exposure used.  Where in that video is the bit you refer to?

Quote from: cikljamas
In For All Mankind by the National Geographic Society, astronauts are shown suiting up. In their launch suits, the astronauts do arm exercises and wave to the crowd.  From these scenes the Apollo suits do not appear to have bearings at the joints like the space shuttle extra vehicular suits, which do have bearings at the elbow, shoulder, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle joints.  How were the Apollo astronauts able to bend their joints, especially their finger joints, on the moon if their suits were pressurized?

APOLLO-PRESSURIZED-SUITS (https://i.postimg.cc/kXpDfZkz/APOLLO-PRESSURIZED-SUITS.jpg)
Pressurized suits give a rigid balloon-like appearance which the moon astronauts did not appear to have
I believe that the Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) used on the moon had a protective over-suit over the pressure suit.

Quote from: cikljamas
The For All Mankind video shows the ground when the lunar module is landing.  As dust is being kicked up from the main engine, a dark shadow of the module appears.  The ground in the lunar module shadow does not show any reflection or brightness from any main engine exhaust flame.
Possibly because the engine was shut-off before touchdown and even before that was throttled right back.

Quote from: cikljamas
Why were there were no emergencies or problems from the temperature extremes of -100 to -150 degrees Fahrenheit to +215F?  A study paper for a proposed moonbase uses a noon-time worst case of 375 K (102 C, or 215 F) for a lunar surface temperature.
Why should there be?
Quote from: cikljamas
In For All Mankind, ground control announced that the temperature in the shade was -100 to -150 degrees Fahrenheit.  Were the batteries of the lunar rover in the shade, and if so, how were they protected against these temperature extremes?

At temperatures less than -40F (-40C) a lot of materials start becoming very brittle. Electrical items do not work as well.  Batteries produce less current.  The extreme temperature variations from shadow to sunlight would cause significant material contraction and expansion and would make equipment breakdown and failure very likely.
NASA and any competent engineer knows far more than you about the temperatures reached and the material properties.
"Electrical items do not work as well" and "batteries produce less current" but only if actually subject to those temperatures.
The temperatures might have been extreme but a vacuum conducts no heat leaving only radiation and contact with the lunar surface.
Study up on what NASA and others have written on the temperature control of spacecraft and stop pointing out nothing but you own pathetic ignorance.

Quote from: cikljamas
Why did the one-sixth gravity cause the astronauts to alternate between hopping and walking?  We all saw many sequences where an astronauts looked like they were flexing their knees pretty good to jump but they did not travel any higher than 40 cm. Why? The astronauts were not hopping any farther than what the typical person could hop here on Earth.
How far can you hop when wearing a bulky EMU with mass 115 kg that restricts movement?

Quote from: cikljamas
There a number of times in Apollo footage when the astronauts were landing pretty hard on their knees.  Were they not running a huge risk of puncturing their pressurized suits? According to an article in the Dec. 1, 1969 issue of Aviation Week and Space Technology, Apollo mission planners were worried about suit puncture and cutting.
It was obviously a concern but the outer suit was a protective suit over the inner pressure suit and the pressure was only 4.3 psi.

Quote from: cikljamas
After an Apollo 14 astronaut sets up and lets go of the flag, the flag flutters, is still, and then flutters again.  This may be viewed on the Apollo Interactive CD-ROM by Simitar Entertainment.

Hey, NASA paid shills, how many of you are freemasons?
I know for an absolute certainty that I get no pay from NASA or anybody for this and don't even know anyone who might be a freemason!

But I also know that you are such a blatant hypocrite that you refuse to even acknowledge your proven guilt!

Here have another go at defending yourself!

You dare post accusations like this when you prove your own deception by using "Photoshopped" photos and refusing to even admit to it when pointed out:
I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made. However, this simple concept (of admitting your obvious mistakes) is totally strange and incomprehensible to you and to Jack Black. Whenever it comes to my mind to tell you "shame on you", the next thought comes to my mind in a nanosecond : They have no idea what the word "shame" designates, and they have no idea what "a shame" is, because they haven't got a clue what the word "honesty" means.
Now firstly please point out where either JackBlack or I made mistakes we should admit to and then answer why you, yourself, are so deceptive!.

But it would appear that you do not simply "make mistakes" you used at least two obviously "Photoshopped" images in one of the few of your videos I've bothered to watch, the EIFFEL TOWER PROOF:
EIFFEL TOWER PROOF :

It starts with the question, "How would earth look from the moon?" And at 0:30 in that video we find this image:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/kj5aohud8gu7lrs/How%20would%20earth%20look%20from%20the%20moon.jpg?dl=1)

The inset in the lower right is obviously a composite of two NASA photos.

       Then at 5:56 in that video I find the following image which I know is a composite of two NASA photos
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/gitimar1o14xf6s/How%20would%20earth%20look%20from%20the%20moon%20%28Faked%29.jpg?dl=1)
Of course the light comes from different directions! That is not a genuine NASA photo.

Now, Mr Cikljamas, you have two options either:
  • YOU show me the originals of those photos in the official NASA archives (with AS numbers) or

  • admit to your deception in using fake photos in which you deceive people in you vain attempt show that NASA are liars.

Your continual ignoring of this just goes to show that you know you are being deceptive in your own videos!

Your response and apology would be greatly appreciated!

You are a proven deceiver and if you expect anyone to take you seriously you will admit your guilt and takedown that and other videos that might have similar faked photos.

PS You titled this thread "HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)" and
      it looks as though you have neither proven taht the lunar landings were a  hoax or that "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum"! What a loser!

You forgot half of JackBlack's post so I restored it! No need to thank me I do these little things just to be helpful.

But I must have missed the bit where you gave a rational answer to "What force causes the gas to leave the rocket and what other body is involved?"

Would you care to enlighten us again as to "What force causes the gas to leave the rocket and what other body is involved?"

Come to think of it, I've never seen you give a rational answer as to why "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum" so I must assume that you have no idea!

Something I have noticed in various forums discussing the subject of space propulsion is exemplified by this other comment - by "alancalverd", a supporter of PmbPhy's arguments on the Naked Scientists forum. At one point, alancalverd says :

"Have you ever fired a rifle? The recoil force is exactly the same whether you fire it under water or in air. Recoil force is independent of the surrounding medium. Conservation of momentum is demonstrated in many ways: billiard balls, "Newton's Cradle", spinning tops and skaters.... and in no case is there any requirement of "something to push against". Rockets work by conservation of momentum, nothing else. You chuck stuff out of the back and the rocket moves forward so that the net change in momentum is zero."

In fact, I have often seen this 'bullet-recoil' argument being brought up by folks convinced by the feasibility of space propulsion - and I remember reading on some other forum that burning rocket fuel basically works like the flow of bullets fired out of a machine gun: what propels a spacecraft, it is argued, is the mass of the exploding fuel recoiling against the combustion chamber coupled with the momentum of the exhausts rapidly expelled out of the nozzle, yet - ( and this is clearly / strongly argued ) - these same, supersonic exhausts do no work whatsoever as they impact the atmosphere (not even at sea-level). As it is, the consensus among these people seems to be that rockets work exclusively by 'recoil effect' and 'rapid mass / momentum transfer' - and that no analogy whatsoever can be made between a jet engine and a rocket engine - as far as the very nature of their propulsion forces is concerned.

Fair enough. So with this theory in mind, I have decided to set up an experiment. On the beach.

THE MIDGET-SOLDIER ROCKET PROJECT

I have this midget soldier (my little Italian trooper only weighs in at 50kg or so) that I wish to launch and briefly propel upwards (in the atmosphere, that is - i am not even thinking of reaching the 'vacuum' of space for now!). Looking around for the 'world's fastest machine gun' I have also found this remarkable Russian machine gun, the "SKHAS Ultra" used in WWII - capable of firing 3000 (yes, three-thousand) rounds per minute - i.e. 50 rounds per second.

ShKAS machine gun specifications: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ShKAS_machine_gun

(https://i.postimg.cc/3xgxzVDz/RUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKET.jpg)

Now, the basic specifications of the Ariane 5 rocket :

(https://i.postimg.cc/qvdkcwZw/ARIANE-5.jpg)

Weight of Ariane 5 rocket: 760.000 kg
Mass of fuel ejected per second : 2000 kg / s
Ratio of fuel-weight expelled per second / vs vessel weight: 1/380
(in other words, 0.263 % of total vessel weight is expelled every second)
Exhaust velocity (at sea level) : 2749 m/s

As compared to :

Weight of midget soldier + machine gun + 650 rounds of ammunition: 50+10+40 = 100 kg
Mass of 50 rounds (of 24g each) fired per second : 1.2 kg
Ratio of rounds expelled each second / vs soldier+gun assembly: 1/83
(in other words, 1.2 % of total vessel weight is expelled every second)
Muzzle exit velocity : 825 m/s

So, let's see: my 'vessel' (i.e. the midget soldier and his machine gun & ammunition) is :

About 4.5 X superior (more efficient) in terms of mass expelled per second / vs vessel weight
About 3.3 X times inferior (slower) in terms of 'muzzle / exhaust exit velocity'.

By the looks of it - and since my mass-ejected-per-second-ratio is 4.5 X superior to that of the Ariane rocket - this looks promising, yet I'm a bit worried that my exit velocity (of my 'rocket fuel' - i.e. the bullets of my machine gun) is inferior to the Ariane rocket's.

I'm currently stuck at a more profound / momentous question:

Will my midget soldier take off at all - and briefly soar up in the skies? If not - WHY NOT?

Cikljamas, your toy soldier is going nowhere, except maybe to the emergency department with a dislocated shoulder or bullet wound to the face from a ricochet.

The individual mass of each expelled round is simply too small compared to the size of your midget. Type in "Rocketman" on YouTube and have a look at how rockets strapped to a person's back can carry an average sized adult up into the sky, and look closely at how those rockets work. 

Does being a government employee qualify a person being a "NASA shill", in your view?

Post by: JackBlack on July 28, 2019, 03:02:32 PM
I see you still failed to address the question.
Why?

What force causes the gas to leave the rocket and what other body is involved?

The only options are to reject physics or accept rockets work in space.

So, let's see: my 'vessel' (i.e. the midget soldier and his machine gun & ammunition) is :
About 4.5 X superior (more efficient) in terms of mass expelled per second / vs vessel weight
About 3.3 X times inferior (slower) in terms of 'muzzle / exhaust exit velocity'.
You mean the Ariane is 3.3 times faster.

As a simple approach you can use the rocket thrust equation and ignore the pressure term.
So just taking your numbers for the machine gun, the force will be 1.2 kg/s * 825 m/s = 990 N.
Assuming it is going straight up, then the force it needs to provide just needs to counter gravity, and thus for a 100 kg load needs to be roughly 980 N.

But quickly checking, your numbers are off. The bullet weight isn't 24 g. That is the weight of the entire round, including the gas and cartridge which would be ejected at much slower speeds.
The actual bullet, which is what leaves at the quoted speed is only 9.6 g, or 0.4 times the mass you used. That means the thrust would be roughly 0.4 times the previously calculated thrust or 396 N.
That isn't even enough to lift your 50 kg person.

If you have a correct percentage you can also simplify it a bit.
If the percentage mass flow rate multiplied by the velocity is greater than g (roughly 9.8 m/s^2), it can fly.
Sticking in the original numbers you gave for the gun person that gives 9.9. Correcting it to the actual bullet (0.48%) you only get 3.96. So you aren't going to fly.

As for the Ariane, that is quite a bit more complex. It has 2 boosters and a core, each throwing out some mass at some velocity. And there are different models. I hate it when companies do that.
The 2 boosters give a collective 3429 kg/s mass flow rate.
The core gives 315 kg/s.

So that is already quite different to what you have said. That is 3744 kg/s, or 0.49% of the mass of the rocket.

So when both numbers are corrected, you end up with the Ariane ejecting a slightly larger fraction of its mass per second than the gun is (at least when focusing on the quickly moving ejected parts).

So in reality your comparison would be:
Ariane is about 1x the fractional mass flow rate.
Ariane is about 3x the velocity.

But I can't find the numbers for the velocity anywhere.
But if I just take your word for it, then we end up with a thrust of 10292256 N, enough to lift a ~ 1 million kg object.


The option is to reject explanations that are not based on genuine physics but bullied into the psyche of the masses.
No, the physics being discussed are based firmly upon reality and confirmed by mountains of evidence.
You not liking these laws of physics doesn't mean they aren't real.
So the option remain the same:
Reject physics, or accept rockets work in space.

Thank you for the clarification.

Happy to clarify my views on the same subject. (Though I will not engage in arguments over them, since I have no agenda to convince you or anyone else.)

1. It's flat.

2. All life on Earth evolved from earlier forms by the process of natural selection. I lean towards Stephen Jay Gould's theory of punctuated equilibrium, that most evolution occurs during geologically brief episodes, separated by relatively long periods of stasis.

3. Relativity physics is correct, though incomplete since it breaks down at quantum length scales. For the very big, the very fast, and the very massive, it correctly describes how stuff works.

4. The climate is changing in ways that are disastrous for humans, and human activity is responsible for nearly all of it.

5. The Earth is around 4.5 billion years old, give or take a few hundred million.

And while I'm at it, Neil Armstrong and several others over the course of the latter Apollo missions, walked on the moon. Considering that they and NASA thought that their chances of making it back alive were around 50/50, I would not have wanted to go in their place. These were brave men indeed, as are all the men and women who have gone into space.

Happy to state my views. I know you regard them as incompatible. I feel no need to defend them. I respect everybody's views.

P.S. And clearly rockets work in space because otherwise Armstrong and the others could not have gotten to the moon.

Something I have noticed in various forums discussing the subject of space propulsion is exemplified by this other comment - by "alancalverd", a supporter of PmbPhy's arguments on the Naked Scientists forum. At one point, alancalverd says :

"Have you ever fired a rifle? The recoil force is exactly the same whether you fire it under water or in air. Recoil force is independent of the surrounding medium. Conservation of momentum is demonstrated in many ways: billiard balls, "Newton's Cradle", spinning tops and skaters.... and in no case is there any requirement of "something to push against". Rockets work by conservation of momentum, nothing else. You chuck stuff out of the back and the rocket moves forward so that the net change in momentum is zero."

In fact, I have often seen this 'bullet-recoil' argument being brought up by folks convinced by the feasibility of space propulsion - and I remember reading on some other forum that burning rocket fuel basically works like the flow of bullets fired out of a machine gun: what propels a spacecraft, it is argued, is the mass of the exploding fuel recoiling against the combustion chamber coupled with the momentum of the exhausts rapidly expelled out of the nozzle, yet - ( and this is clearly / strongly argued ) - these same, supersonic exhausts do no work whatsoever as they impact the atmosphere (not even at sea-level). As it is, the consensus among these people seems to be that rockets work exclusively by 'recoil effect' and 'rapid mass / momentum transfer' - and that no analogy whatsoever can be made between a jet engine and a rocket engine - as far as the very nature of their propulsion forces is concerned.

Fair enough. So with this theory in mind, I have decided to set up an experiment. On the beach.

THE MIDGET-SOLDIER ROCKET PROJECT
I have this midget soldier (my little Italian trooper only weighs in at 50kg or so) that I wish to launch and briefly propel upwards (in the atmosphere, that is - i am not even thinking of reaching the 'vacuum' of space for now!). Looking around for the 'world's fastest machine gun' I have also found this remarkable Russian machine gun, the "SKHAS Ultra" used in WWII - capable of firing 3000 (yes, three-thousand) rounds per minute - i.e. 50 rounds per second.

ShKAS machine gun specifications: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ShKAS_machine_gun
<< No need for a picture: RUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKETRUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKET (https://i.postimg.cc/3xgxzVDz/RUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKET.jpg) >>

Now, the basic specifications of the Ariane 5 rocket :
<< No need for a picture: ARIANE-5 (https://i.postimg.cc/qvdkcwZw/ARIANE-5.jpg) >>

Weight of Ariane 5 rocket: 760.000 kg
Mass of fuel ejected per second : 2000 kg / s
Incorrect! The Arianne 5 has a central core and two booster with a total Mass of fuel ejected per second 3658 kg/sec.
Quote from: cikljamas
Ratio of fuel-weight expelled per second / vs vessel weight: 1/380
(in other words, 0.263 % of total vessel weight is expelled every second)
Exhaust velocity (at sea level) : 2749 m/s
Incorrect!
Quote from: cikljamas

As compared to :
Weight of midget soldier + machine gun + 650 rounds of ammunition: 50+10+40 = 100 kg
Mass of 50 rounds (of 24g each) fired per second : 1.2 kg
Incorrect! The mass of the 7.62 mm projectile is only 9.6 grams.
Quote from: cikljamas
Ratio of rounds expelled each second / vs soldier+gun assembly: 1/83
(in other words, 1.2 % of total vessel weight is expelled every second)
Muzzle exit velocity : 825 m/s

So, let's see: my 'vessel' (i.e. the midget soldier and his machine gun & ammunition) is :

About 4.5 X superior (more efficient) in terms of mass expelled per second / vs vessel weight
About 3.3 X times inferior (slower) in terms of 'muzzle / exhaust exit velocity'.

By the looks of it - and since my mass-ejected-per-second-ratio is 4.5 X superior to that of the Ariane rocket - this looks promising, yet I'm a bit worried that my exit velocity (of my 'rocket fuel' - i.e. the bullets of my machine gun) is inferior to the Ariane rocket's.

I'm currently stuck at a more profound / momentous question:

Will my midget soldier take off at all - and briefly soar up in the skies? If not - WHY NOT?
No, your midget soldier will not take off at all because the thrust generated, (mass ejected per second) x (velocity of that mass), is insufficient to lift him!
But the Arianne 5 rocket will take off because the thrust generated is greater than the lift-off mass of the rocket.

First we'll check on your soldier. I looked up your ShKAS machine gun specifications (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ShKAS_machine_gun) and found that
Quote
7.62 mm ammunition specifications
  • Bullet weight: 148 grains (9.6 grams)
  • Round weight: 370 grains (24 grams)
So NOT  of "of 24g each" but only of 9.6 grams each - quite a difference I'd say!
You claim this:
Mass of 50 rounds (of 24g each) fired per second : 1.2 kg
Ratio of rounds expelled each second / vs soldier+gun assembly: 1/83
(in other words, 1.2 % of total vessel weight is expelled every second)
Muzzle exit velocity: 825 m/s
     But I find that:
Mass of 50 rounds (of 9.6g each) fired per second:  0.48 kg
Ratio of mass-expelled each second/soldier+gun assembly: (0.48 kg/100 kg) = 1/83 - not that it means anything!
(in other words, 1.2 % of total vessel weight is expelled every second)
Muzzle exit velocity: 825 m/s
So the ratio of mass ejected per second/total mass: 0.48/100 = 208 not that it means anything here!
And the average thrust on the soldier would be (mass per second) x (Muzzle exit velocity) or (0.48 kg) x (825 m/s) = 396 Newtons or about 40 kg.

Your soldier might isn't going anywhere!

Then let's look at a real Arianne 5:, including it's two solid rocket boosters that provide most of the lift-off thrust
Quote
Ariane 5 utilizes two solid boosters, each standing more than 30 meters tall with 237.8 metric tons of propellant. The boosters are ignited on the launchpad once the main cryogenic stage’s Vulcain engine has stabilized its thrust output. They deliver more than 90 percent of the launcher’s total thrust at the start of flight and burn for 130 sec. before they are separated over a designated zone of the Atlantic Ocean.
Each burns "237.8 metric tons of propellant" in "130 sec" or an average total fuel burn rate of (2 x 237.8/130) = 3658 kg/sec with an effective exhaust velocity of 2459 m/s.
So the thrust of each booster is about 4,497 kN or 457,308 kg.

In addition, the Arianne 5 has a core stage which at sea-level burns about 315 kg/sec and has an effective exhaust velocity of about 3049 m/s.
So the thrust of the core stage is about 960 kN or 97,593 kg.

The Arianne 5 burns a total of 3658 kg/sec for the boosters plus about 315 kg/sec for the core or a total mass burn rate of 3658 kg/sec.
And the ratio of fuel-mass expelled per second / vs vessel mass: (3658 kg/752,260 kg) = 1/205 - not that it means anything!

Hence the total thrust is about 2 x 457,308 + 97,593 = 1,012,208 kg.
And the launch mass is about 2 x 278,330 (boosters) + 184,700 (core stage) + 10,900 (second stage) = 752,260 kg.
Maybe I'm a bit out but it seems reasonable and the mass falls off at 3658 kg/sec.

So you soldier with 40 kg thrust and a total mass of 100 kg is going nowhere!
But the Arianne 5 with a total thrust of 1,012,208 kg and a total mass of 752,260 kg is headed for orbit!

I fail to see the point of your whole post! You've shown that a burst from a machine gun causes a force insufficient to lift the person firing it and
the exhaust gas expelled from an Arianne 5 causes a force on the rocket quite sufficient to send it into orbit - congratulations!

Well, believing and knowing are two different things. If you are a believer, then you are gullible, and you can fall into the trap of many scams. For a believer, if something sounds good, he or she will believe it instantaneously. So, it is extremely important that you feed your mind with the right information.

In order to illustrate the difference between knowing and believing i am going to quote here one very interesting short exchange of thoughts :

MacAndrew: ...that it doesn’t “react with baryonic matter” but with “electromagnetic and gravitational activity” (seeGWW, Vol 1, page 263).[6] How can he possibly know these things? His claims are vague, unquantified and entirely unsatisfactory to physicists, they arise without rhyme or reason, and he never explains how he has come by them. Their empirical and mathematical foundation remains a mystery. The undeniable fact is that he’s just making it up. His kind of knowledge is like that of a child who just knows her imaginary friend is wearing a blue dress and has brown eyes. It’s a fantasy.

R.Sungenis: Of course, since we see that Mr. MacAndrew didn’t get past page 263 in his reading of GWW, he is prone to make his own straw man to beat up. If he read toward the end of Volume 1, and into Volume 2, he would have found out why I say these things. (But in MacAndrew’s world it is better to jump to conclusions and name‐call your opponent than read his notes). 

We know that the Planck aether reacts with EM activity because we see fringe shifts in all the interferometer experiments, particularly the 1887 and 1925 Michelson experiments (something that neither SRT or GRT can answer, since the fringe shifts discredit both SRT and GRT). Fringe shifts mean that something is interacting with the light beams. In fact, the very reason the light beams move at 3 x 10^8 m/s is because that is the only speed allowed in the Planck medium (unless the Planck medium is altered in some way, as it is when it has more tension). 

As for gravity and the Planck aether, since the density of the Planck aether is so great (10^94g/cm^3) it can:

(1) penetrate all baryonic matter. But since it cannot replace baryonic  matter,  the baryonic/Planck combination (as occurs, for example, in a typical planet) will create a huge vacuum against the pure Planck aether in space. This vacuum will attempt to compensate by pulling in any object that has less of a baryonic/Planck combination (less because it is smaller than the planet), and this is what we understand as gravity.

(2) Additionally, the Planck aether solves the gravity speed problem (Einstein limited gravity to c because of the demands of his SRT, but that slow speed for gravity simply doesn’t work). In a Planck aether universe, the speed of gravity is practically unlimited. Since the Planck aether is so dense, it can carry longitudinal waves or compression waves over the entire universe in a split second (about 10^‐11 seconds).

(3) Additionally, the Planck aether solves the “action‐at‐a‐distance” problem of Newton’s physics, as well as the problem of “entanglement.”  Newton had the problem that his theory of gravity required non‐locality, that is, gravity had to act upon objects instantaneously that were huge distances apart. This problem is solved by the instantaneous speed of gravity allowed by a Planck aether. In “entanglement” an electron in one place has a coupling with an electron in a different place. This instantaneous communication between electrons is allowed by the Planck aether.

Here is an endorsement dr. Robert Sungenis received from Wolfgang Smith, a professor of physics and mathematics at MIT:

April 2010: “Dear Dr. Sungenis: Since writing to you two days ago to thank you for your letter and the gift of your two‐volume treatise, I have had a chance to peruse this  work  and  feel  compelled  to  congratulate  you  and  Dr.  Bennett  on  this outstanding achievement! Though I am not usually a loss for words, I find it hard to express my admiration for this masterpiece, which has no peer and constitutes without a doubt the definitive work on the subject of geocentrism...You are to be congratulated not only on your erudition and command of an incredibly vast subject matter, but also on the logical clarity of your presentation and lucidity of style. At your hands this subject of virtually unimaginable complexity becomes ‘almost’ simple, and certainly understandable (up to a point) to nonspecialists. Let me not swell this letter; perhaps I will get back to you on some specific points. Today I just wanted to express my admiration for your book, which strikes me as epochal in its implications...Yours sincerely in Christ, signed, Wolfgang Smith.”

(But in MacAndrew’s world it is better to jump to conclusions and name‐call your opponent than read his notes). 

We know that the Planck aether reacts with EM activity because we see fringe shifts in all the interferometer experiments, particularly the 1887 and 1925 Michelson experiments (something that neither SRT or GRT can answer, since the fringe shifts discredit both SRT and GRT). Fringe shifts mean that something is interacting with the light beams. In fact, the very reason the light beams move at 3 x 10^8 m/s is because that is the only speed allowed in the Planck medium (unless the Planck medium is altered in some way, as it is when it has more tension). 

As for gravity and the Planck aether, since the density of the Planck aether is so great (10^94g/cm^3) it can:

(1) penetrate all baryonic matter. But since it cannot replace baryonic  matter,  the baryonic/Planck combination (as occurs, for example, in a typical planet) will create a huge vacuum against the pure Planck aether in space. This vacuum will attempt to compensate by pulling in any object that has less of a baryonic/Planck combination (less because it is smaller than the planet), and this is what we understand as gravity.

(2) Additionally, the Planck aether solves the gravity speed problem (Einstein limited gravity to c because of the demands of his SRT, but that slow speed for gravity simply doesn’t work). In a Planck aether universe, the speed of gravity is practically unlimited. Since the Planck aether is so dense, it can carry longitudinal waves or compression waves over the entire universe in a split second (about 10^‐11 seconds).

(3) Additionally, the Planck aether solves the “action‐at‐a‐distance” problem of Newton’s physics, as well as the problem of “entanglement.”  Newton had the problem that his theory of gravity required non‐locality, that is, gravity had to act upon objects instantaneously that were huge distances apart. This problem is solved by the instantaneous speed of gravity allowed by a Planck aether. In “entanglement” an electron in one place has a coupling with an electron in a different place. This instantaneous communication between electrons is allowed by the Planck aether. 
That sounds like total guesswork about nothing more than a hypothesis.

Geocentrism Debunked: Aether, Springs, and Light: Physics Blunders in Galileo Was Wrong (https://www.geocentrismdebunked.org/aether-springs-light-sungenis-fails/)
1 Introduction
I sometimes browse Mr Robert Sungenis’s Facebook page here (https://www.facebook.com/groups/574635989349745/), the one called Ask Robert Sungenis about Geocentrism, because the spectacle of a man virtually devoid of education in science giving absurd answers to earnest scientific questions posed by his undiscerning admirers can be very funny.

As it is on the Facebook page here (https://www.facebook.com/groups/574635989349745/permalink/759335194213156/)[1], where Sungenis answered a question about the propagation of light in a “rotating universe”. There is much wrong with his reply, which we’ll get to later, but one very elementary mistake jumped out at me. His reply depends on the existence of a speculative medium, the “geocentric aether”, which he invented and which he believes is needed for the propagation of light. He claimed, among other things, that the speed of light depends on the tension in the aether (don’t worry, we’ll come back later to these claims about how light travels) and he provided an analogy for how he thinks this works.

<< Read the rest to see how laughably wrong Robert Sungenis is in simple physics. >>
Only someone who had no understanding of physics could be fooled by the ideas put forward by Robert Sungenis.
Those interested might like to read Welcome to GeocentrismDebunked.org (https://www.geocentrismdebunked.org/)

For a start a Geocentric Solar System is completely impossible even under simple Newtonian Mechanics and Gravitation - but you never understood them anyway, did you?
If you disagree, please calculate the centripetal acceleration needed hold the moon in an orbit where it rotates about the earth once in about 24.8 hours.
Then explain what mechanism supplies that necessary centripetal acceleration.

In closing, I must ask why are you afraid to admit to your own deception when you use "Photoshopped" images in a video that tries to prove NASA's deception.

The bottom line is that rotary motion, such as the earth's rotation, can be and is regularly measured.
The bottom line is this :

No experiment has ever been performed with such excruciating persistence and meticulous precision, and in every conceivable manner, than that of trying to detect and measure the motion of the Earth. Yet they have all consistently and continually yielded a velocity for the Earth of exactly ZERO mph.

The toil of thousands of exasperated researchers, in the extremely varied experiments of Arago, De Coudre's induction, Fizeau, Fresnell drag, Hoek, Jaseja's lasers, Jenkins, Klinkerfuess, Michelson-Morley interferometry, Lord Rayleigh's polarimetry, Troughton-Noble torque, and the famous 'Airy's Failure' experiment, all conclusively failed to show any rotational or translational movement for the earth, whatsoever."

Some scientists admit the truth in their own words. Dutch physicist *HENDRIK LORENTZ* (of the Lorentz translation equations, foundation of the General Theory of Relativity) noted that:

"Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest…"

His great contemporary *HENRI POINCARE* confessed:

"A great deal of research has been carried out concerning the influence of the Earth’s movement. The results were always negative..."

*LINCOLN BARNETT* agrees:

“No physical experiment ever proved that the Earth actually is in motion.”

In other words, the notion that the earth revolves around the sun having become dogma, its denial spells automatic excommunication from the scientific establishment. As for the unthinking masses, a lie need only be systematized in textbooks to pass for truth.

Enter Albert Einstein . To save the world from having to
reconnect itself with the Middle Ages, Einstein set his mind to finding an
explanation to the Michelson-Morley experiment . Most people don’t
realize, and even less would admit it, but Relativity was created for one
main reason
: so that mankind would not be forced to admit that Earth
was standing still in space
. As his contemporary, Max von Laue stated:

Thus, a new epoch in physics created a new mechanics... it
began, we might say, with the question as to what effect the
motion of the Earth has on physical processes which take place
on the Earth... we can assign to the dividing line between
epochs a precise date: It was on September 26, 1905, that
Albert Einstein’s investigation entitled “On the
Electrodynamics of Bodies in Motion”
appeared in the Annalen
der Physik
.

In fact, Einstein would be called “a new Copernicus.
Unbeknownst to the world, however, Einstein’s explanation would not
only require a total revamping of science, it would necessitate the
acceptance of what The Times of London called “an affront to common
sense
,” forcing his fellow man to accept principles and postulates that
heretofore would have been considered completely absurd. Einstein
would require men to believe that matter shrunk in length and increased
in mass when it moved, that clocks slowed down, that two people could
age at different rates, that space was curved, that time and space would
meld into one, and many other strange concepts. But in the end, as we
will see unfold before us in a most ironic drama, what Einstein’s Special
Relativity took away with the left hand, his General Relativity restored
ten years later with the right hand.

So no, GC and HC are not equally correct.
HC works with the current laws of physics and has explanation for things.
GC relies upon pure magic, with no actual explanations.

1. “So which is real, the Ptolemaic or Copernican system? Although it is not uncommon for people to say that Copernicus proved Ptolemy wrong, that is not true….one can use either picture as a model of the universe, for our observations of the heavens can be explained by assuming either the earth or the sun to be at rest.” Physicist, Stephen Hawking

“…the Earth-centered system…is in reality absolutely identical with the system of Copernicus and all computation of the places of the planets are the same for the two systems.” Astronomer, J. L. E. Dryer

“…it is very important to acknowledge that the Copernican theory offers a very exact calculation of the apparent movements of the planets…even though it must be conceded that, from the modern standpoint  practically identical results could be obtained by means of a somewhat revised Ptolemaic system….It makes no sense, accordingly, to speak of a difference in truth between Copernicus and Ptolemy: both conceptions are equally permissible descriptions. What has been considered as the greatest discovery of occidental wisdom, as opposed to that of antiquity, is questioned as to its truth value.” Physicist, Hans Reichenbach
 
“…I tell my classes that had Galileo confronted the Church in Einstein’s day, he would have lost the argument for better reasons. You may use my name if you wish.” Mathematician, Carl E. Wulfman

“There is no planetary observation by which we on Earth can prove that the Earth is moving in an orbit around the sun. Thus all Galileo’s discoveries with the telescope can be accommodated to the system invented by Tycho Brahe just before Galileo began his observations of the heavens. In this Tychonic system, the planets…move in orbits around the sun, while the sun moves in an orbit around the Earth in a year. Furthermore, the daily rotation of the heavens is communicated to the sun and planets, so that the Earth itself neither rotates nor  revolves in an orbit.” Physicist, I Bernard Cohen

“Tycho Brahe proposed a dualistic scheme, with the Sun going around the Earth but with all other planets going around the Sun, and in making this proposal he thought he was offering something radically different from Copernicus. And in rejecting Tycho’s scheme, Kepler obviously thought so too. Yet in principle there is no difference.” Astronomer, Fred Hoyle

“Thus, even now, three and a half centuries after Galileo’s condemnation by the Inquisition, it is still remarkably difficult to say categorically whether the earth moves...” Physicist, Julian Barbour

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641

“So far as hypotheses are concerned, let no one expect anything certain from astronomy, which cannot furnish it, lest he accept as the truth ideas conceived for another purpose, and depart from this study a greater fool than when he entered it.” - *NICOLAS COPERNICUS*

2. Geokinetics is not the best way to understand the physics. In fact, the geocentric
system makes more sense. For example, in the geokinetic system, the Earth has to rotate
exactly 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds to keep sidereal time.
How can it do so when so many  inertial  forces  (e.g., earthquakes,  tsunamis,  volcanoes, etc.)
are  impeding  its  rotation?
Venus, which does rotate, has slowed its rate
by 6 minutes in the last few years.
 

Likewise,  in  the geokinetic system, the Earth has  to revolve around the sun exactly  in 365.25
days. How does it do so in the face of the inertial forces it undergoes internally, as well as the
cosmic forces and planetary perturbations it incurs externally? Geocentrism has a much better
explanation. The sidereal rate can stay exactly as it is due to the tremendous momentum that
a massive rotating universe will produce. Like a giant  flywheel,  the universe keeps  turning at
the same rate year after year, and nothing is able to slow it down. (Later we will address the
claims that the Earth has slowed its rotation). As for Newton and Einstein, geocentrism
can use both a rotating Earth in a fixed universe or a fixed Earth in a rotating universe, if desired, since
all we need to do is invert the equations, as Einstein himself did.


*H. Thirring* in 1918 and 1922 suggested that Einstein's theory of gravitation or GR should be taken to indicate that the spontaneous orientation of gyroscopes and the phenomenon of atmospheric wind could be treated as if the earth were stationary (not rotating) and 'the distant stars' were moving around it at a speed high enough (>>c) to generate strong gravitational effects (fictional centrifugal and Coriolis forces).

"One need not view the existence of such centrifugal forces as originating from the motion of K [e.g.-the Earth]; one could just as well account for them as resulting from the average rotational effect of distant, detectable masses as evidenced in the vicinity of K, whereby K is treated as being at rest. - *Albert Einstein,* quoted in Hans Thirring, "On the Effect of Distant Rotating Masses in Einstein's Theory of Gravitation", Physikalische Zeitschrift 22, 29, 1921

"If one rotates the shell relative to the fixed stars about an axis going through its center, a Coriolis force arises in the interior of the shell, *that is, the plane of a Foucault pendulum is dragged around*" - *Albert Einstein,* cited in "Gravitation", Misner Thorne and Wheeler pp. 544-545.

"...Thus we may return to Ptolemy's point of view of a 'motionless earth'...One has to show that the transformed metric can be regarded as produced according to Einstein's field equations, by distant rotating masses. This has been done by Thirring. He calculated a field due to a rotating, hollow, thick-walled sphere and proved that inside the cavity it behaved as though there were centrifugal and other inertial forces usually attributed to absolute space. Thus from Einstein's point of view, Ptolemy and Corpenicus are equally right." - *Max Born,* "Einstein's Theory of Relativity", Dover Publications, 1962, pp 344 & 345.

3. Two months after publication of the first paper, Sagnac would conclude his second and final paper on the matter with these words - "The result of this methodology demonstrates that,in the surrounding space [of the apparatus], light is propagated with a velocity Vo which is independent of the movement of the parts of the system, light source (...) and the optical circuit."

This is the central theme of Sagnac: that the propagation of light appears to be independent of the state of rotation of his self-contained apparatus, exactly because one can differentially measure its advance or retardation as a function of the speed of rotation of the apparatus.

What is the consequence of the Sagnac experiment for the MGP experiment?  To begin with, Sagnac's apparatus was rotating (with the control fringe pattern being obtained first with the apparatus 'at rest'), whereas the MGP setup was a stationary one. 

This fact is intimately linked to the nature of the measurements in question: the Sagnac experiment detects the rotation of the revolving interferometer (relative to the 'rest state'), whereas the MGP experiment, with its interferometer fixed to the local revolving frame, detected the rotation of the earth. 

Because of the resolution limits, the Sagnac experiment could never have hoped to detect the rotation of the earth, anymore than the MM experiment could have detected the rotation of its own apparatus. 

What the Sagnac experiment did, however, unequivocally demonstrate was that there was a precedent for the optical detection of rotary motion.

But relativists, including Einstein, largely discarded this fact for nearly three decades. 

An open-loop Sagnac effect (dt= 2A?/c2) is today well established for the paths of electromagnetic signals around the planet: employing the GPS satellite relay system, delays have been measured by clocks on the order of fractions of microseconds in the W-E transmission with respect to the E-W transmission.

So, an open-loop Sagnac effect proves that there is a rotational motion of an aether around the stationary earth.

Why?

Because an open-loop Sagnac effect can be the consequence of earth's rotation within stationary aether or it can be the result of the rotation of an aether around the stationary earth.

Since all interferometry experiments which were designed to detect earth's orbital motion yielded too small fringe shifts (hence "null result"), then there is no way that an open-loop Sagnac effect can be ascribed to the alleged earth's rotational motion, and instead it must be assigned to the rotation of an aether around the stationary earth.

Case closed!

Get use to this :

If we accept the Copernican viewpoint and its unavoidable
extrapolations with regard to the structure of the universe, we
have to accept the consequences. Then we cannot hold on to the
picture of a simple sun- centered cosmos, of which not even
Newton was fully convinced, but which Bradley and Molyneux
took for granted. Today the astronomers assure us that our Great
Light is only an insignificant member of a spiral Milky Way
galaxy, containing billions of stars. Our sun flies at a speed of
about 250 km/sec around the center of this system. And that is
not all, the ruling cosmology also tells us how the Milky Way
itself whirls at 360,000 km/hr through the space occupied by the
local group of galaxies. Now all these imposing particulars are
theoretically gathered from observations assuming the speed of
light to be 300,000 km/sec, at least, everywhere through our
spatial neighborhood. But if this cosmological panorama is put
through its paces, there is a hitch somewhere. The astronomical
theorists cannot have their cake and eat it. If they accept— as all
the textbooks still do!—Bradley's “proof” of the Copernican
truth, then their cosmological extrapolations of that truth clash
with a not-yet developed simple heliocentrism; that is to say, with
the model of an earth orbiting a spatially unmoved sun.

The other way around, when holding on to their galactic
conjectures, they are at a loss how to account for a steady 20”.5
stellar aberration. For in that scheme our earth, dragged along by
the sun, joins in this minor star's 250 km/sec revolution around
the center of the Milky Way. If, for instance, in March we indeed
would be moving parallel to the sun's motion, our velocity would
become 250+30 = 280 km/sec, and in September 250-30 = 220
km/sec. The “aberration of starlight,” according to post-
Copernican doctrine, depends on the ratio of the velocity of the
earth to the speed of light. As that velocity changes the ratio
changes. Hence Bradley's 20”.496 should change, too. But it does
not. Therefore, there is truly a fly in this astronomical ointment,
paraded and promoted as a truth.


 ”Not true,” the theorists will object, “such out-dated reasoning in
a space knowing place cuts no ice with us. Relativity has no
difficulty with that kind of supposed contradiction.” I dare to
differ. Their Einsteinian panacea, foreshadowed by the
prevarications of Fresnel's “We cannot decide,” Lorentz's “We
cannot measure
,” and Poincaré's “We cannot observe" is mere
eyewash
.

Consider : according to the ruling paradigm, it makes no
physical difference whether I declare either the earth to move
with respect to everything else at rest, or declare the earth to be at
rest with respect to sun and stars moving around. Starting from an
earth at rest, and hence aberration being absent, then whatever the
truth, the annual standard size circlets of all the stars are real and
not caused by our 29.8 km/sec orbital velocity. Instead of a
heliocentric “aberration,” we are confronted with a geocentric
parallax, and these parallaxes being practically the same size for
all stars, these stars must be at the same distance from us. This
points to the existence of the stellatum of old.

This will be judged to be patently “unthinkable” or worse.
Bradley's unobservable and by Airy's failure emasculated “stellar
aberration” remains indispensable for holding on to a Big Bang
and a universe expanding into space or expanding space.
Manifestly, such a post- Copernican cosmos could not differ
much physically from the pre- Copernican one. To say that this is
a difference of motion only is nonsense. It allows me to agree
with Stephen W. Hawking: “You cannot disprove a theory by
finding even a single observation that disagrees with the
predictions of the theory.


Conclusion: Einstein's cure-all cures nothing!
Assuredly, I do not claim that the foregoing proves my modified Tychonian hypothesis.
Experimentally, however, it undoubtedly has the soundest credentials.

More than three centuries of efforts to disprove it have already come to naught.
The pseudo-heliocentric universe popularized for the benefit of the man-in-the-street
has, in fact, not a leg to stand on.


3. Now, let's see once more how your friend Macarios responded to my ZIGZAG argument :

GEOCENTRIC SCENARIO (according to Macarios) :

If Space is orbiting Earth then we calculate relative to Earth:
Sun moves (2*Pi*149.6e6)/24 = 39 165 188.4 km/h
Moon moves (2*Pi*384 400)/24 - 3679.5 = 96 956.2 km/h
Now:
Closer observer: Sun ARCTAN(39165188.4 / 1496e6) = 14.67 degrees per hour ; Moon ARCTAN(96956.2 / 381800) = 14.245 degrees per hour ; difference 0.425
Farther observer: Sun ARCTAN(39165188.4 / 1496e6) = 14.67 degrees per hour ; Moon ARCTAN(96956.2 / 387000) = 14.065 degrees per hour ; difference 0.605
Angular speed difference between observers 0.18 degrees per hour.

HELIOCENTRIC SCENARIO (according to Macarios) :

If Earth is orbiting Sun, then we calculate relative to Sun:
Earth moves (2*Pi*149.6e6)/(365.25*24) = 107 232.5 km/h
Moon moves 107 232.5 ± (2*Pi*384 400)/(27.35*24) = 107 232.5 ± 3679.5 km/h
During solar eclipse it is minus, so we have 97 553 km/h.
Two observers in polar circle, one at closer end and another at farther end will travel 107 232.5 ± (2*Pi*2600)/24 = 107 232.5 ± 681 km/h
Closer observer 106 551.5 km/h, farther observer 107 913.5 km/h.
Now:
Closer observer: 106 551.5 - 97 553 = 8998.5 km/h ; ARCTAN(8998.5/381800) = 1.35 degrees per hour.
Farther observer: 107 913.5 - 97 553 = 10 360.5 km/h ; ARCTAN(10360.5/387000) = 1.53 degrees per hour
Angular speed difference between observers 0.18 degrees per hour.

Now if you change his number 681 km/h (which he got by dividing circumference of Arctic circle by 24 hours) with 434 km/h (which i got by dividing diameter of Arctic circle by 12 hours AND THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO SO TO COMPLY WITH THE CORE OF MY ZIGZAG ARGUMENT) then you get even worse (for you) result (greater discrepancy = smaller number for HC scenario) than i got in the following calculation :

HELIOCENTRIC SCENARIO :

3500 km (diameter of the Moon)
434 km (the distance which an observer at the Arctic circle crosses in one hour (46,8*111km = 5194,8 km/12 = 432,9)
5200 km (the diameter of the Arctic circle)

CLOSER OBSERVER : 3500-434 = 3066 km/h
FARTHER OBSERVER : 3500+434 = 3934 km/h

CLOSER OBSERVER = 3066/380 000 = 0,00806 (ctg) = 0,462
FARTHER OBSERVER = 3934/385 200 = 0,01021 (ctg) = 0,5851

THE DIFFERENCE = 0,123

So, what do you have to say on this???
Nothing!

No wonder!!!

Post by: cikljamas on July 30, 2019, 07:36:22 AM
P.S. Rabinoz, Jack, you are such a great comedians, but you are no match to this guy :
Still nothing of value, I see. 
Well, since you are keeping your head in the send, then obviously you can't see shit.

1. Have you ever seen this before :

---The only acceptable conclusion that can be drawn from these two experiments, Michelson–Morley, on the one hand, and Michelson–Gale, on the other hand, is that the hypothesis of the existence of a medium of propagation for light is not tenable, unless we accept geocentric implications from the combined effect of both experiments (MM and MGP). In the classical context, it is clear that the Sagnac effect cannot at all be explained, unless we admit that the earth is at rest while the whole universe rotates around the stationary earth.
Completely wrong.
Firstly, it wouldn't matter if Earth was rotating with the aether at rest, Earth was at rest with the aether rotating around Earth, or both rotating around the axis of Earth. All three would produce the same result.

But more importantly, that ignores stellar aberration, which makes sense in the context of Earth having a speed of roughly 30 km/s.
The detection of stellar aberration combined with the MM experiment refutes the aether model entirely.

1. Let's consider hypotesis No 1 : "If Earth was rotating with the aether at rest" :

If we assumed that the earth is rotating with the aether at rest then we would have to deal with totally different kind of problem :
Instead of being unable to detect earth's orbital motion (Joos' upper limit = 1,54 km/s), and being able (by Michelson, Gale and Pearson) to establish (and confirm (by others) with different methods (see above)) an exact daily rotational velocity of an aether (even exactly matching expected speeds for a given latitudes), in such hypothetical situation (HC scenario) we would have to face quite an opposite difficulty : since the orbital velocity of the earth is almost 100 times greater than the earth's alleged rotational velocity at 40° N latitude, MGP kind of an experiments would yield much higher results (than expected), and MM kind of an experiments would regularly register exactly 108 000 km of earth's orbital velocity. 

2. Let's consider hypotesis No 2 : "Earth was at rest with the aether rotating around Earth" :

This is perfectly in accordance with reality : no orbital motion of the earth, no rotational motion of the earth, and an aether rotates around the motionless earth once per day.

3. Let's consider hypotesis No 3 : "or both rotating around the axis of Earth" :

This is utter nonsense, and here is why :

A) Aether rotates in the same direction of earths rotation twice faster than the earth : This would be the only way how someone could   
measure 363 m/s for the rotational speed of aether (around rotational earth) at 40°N.

PROBLEM : Wrong direction of aether's rotation. (atmospheric charges wouldn't flow faster westward, but eastward)

B) Aether rotates with the same speed of the earth in the same direction of earth's rotation.

PROBLEM : Atmospheric charges wouldn't flow faster neither westward nor eastward.

C) Aether rotates in an opposite direction of earth's rotation (at any speed).

PROBLEM : We would measure rotational speed of a rotating aether which would exceed earth's rotational speed.

ON TOP OF THAT : All three solutions (A,B,C) would be of a minor significance (if any significance at all) since we wouldn't be able to measure rotational speed of an aether around the rotating earth since the speed of aether flow due to orbital motion of the earth would be much (100 times) higher than the speed of an aether due to rotational motion of the earth (see No 1, above).

ACCOMPANYING POST : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78424.msg2126528#msg2126528

2. Have you ever seen this :

The original experiment of Michelson and Morley was performed in 1887 in order to confirm the theory that says earth exists in an unseen sea of pre-matter called the aether, and that the daily rotation of the earth around itself and the constant travel of the earth around Sol, our sun, would expose any instrument on the earth's surface to what was called an "aether wind". The concept is that the aether, conceived as the medium that allows light waves to travel from one point in the cosmos to another, would influence the measurement of the length of a path of light, depending on whether the path is in line with the expected "wind" or is oriented perpendicular to it.

The experiment did not find the expected result but rather than looking for a reason the aether wind might not be measurable in this way, the idea of there being an aether in the first place was questioned. Einstein then declared that an aether was "not necessary", and since Einstein's theories gained widespread acceptance, any further investigation into the subject of the aether was relegated to the fringes of science.

Many attempts have been made to explain why the physical configuration of the measuring apparatus of Michelson and Morley was improper for showing the aether wind, but no one has repeated the experiment in a different setting.

Now recently Martin Grusenick, an experimenter in Germany, has repeated the Michelson-Morley interferometer experiment with a rather simple laser set-up and has found - to no great surprise - that rotating his apparatus horizontally, no shifts in the interference fringes are observed. Grusenick however had another idea. He modified his apparatus to make it possible to rotate in a vertical plane ... documenting his results in a video that was uploaded on YouTube:



In Einstein's own words ..

“My opinion about Miller’s experiments is the following. … Should the positive result be confirmed, then the special theory of relativity and with it the general theory of relativity, in its current form, would be invalid. Experimentum summus judex. Only the equivalence of inertia and gravitation would remain, however, they would have to lead to a significantly different theory.”
Albert Einstein, in a letter to Edwin E. Slosson, 8 July 1925 (from copy in Hebrew University Archive, Jerusalem.)

I believe that I have really found the relationship between gravitation and electricity, assuming that the Miller experiments are based on a fundamental error. Otherwise, the whole relativity theory collapses like a house of cards.”
Albert Einstein, in a letter to Robert Millikan, June 1921 (in Clark 1971, p.328)

You imagine that I look back on my life’s work with calm satisfaction. But from nearby it looks quite different. There is not a single concept of which I am convinced that it will stand firm, and I feel uncertain whether I am in general on the right track.
Albert Einstein, on his 70th birthday, in a letter to Maurice Solovine, 28 March 1949 (in B. Hoffman Albert Einstein: Creator and Rebel 1972, p.328)

3. Have you ever seen this :


---First of all, it is inconsistent with the aberration of fixed stars (as we know, during a year the stars describe a small ellipse on the background of the sky. This effect cannot occur if the aether is fully dragged by the Earth).

---Secondly, the experiment of Sagnac was repeated by Michelson and Gale in 1925, but this time taking the Earth as a rotating disk (as already suggested by Sagnac himself). These authors observed a displacement of the fringes of interferences, as had Sagnac in his own experiment. This positive result undoubtedly confirms that the Earth does not drag the hypothetical aether in its rotation (it is therefore illogical to admit that it drags this medium in its translation).

---The only acceptable conclusion that can be drawn from these two experiments, Michelson–Morley, on the one hand, and Michelson–Gale, on the other hand, is that the hypothesis of the existence of a medium of propagation for light is not tenable, unless we accept geocentric implications from the combined effect of both experiments (MM and MGP). In the classical context, it is clear that the Sagnac effect cannot at all be explained, unless we admit that the earth is at rest while the whole universe rotates around the stationary earth.

---It appears rather amazing that the "correct relativistic interpretation" of the Sagnac effect took eight years. A seemingly obvious reason is that Sagnac's experiment was not very much discussed in the scientific literature, even in France after the discovery of 1913. Conscious of this situation, in 1919, Sagnac published five papers on his work in the Comptes rendus. The paradox is that his ideas were nevertheless borne by a French group of strong antirelativists. In 1919, Sagnac was even rewarded with the Pierson–Perrin Prize for his achievements on this topic (first for the experiment, seen as a rebuttal of the relativity principle, the constancy of light, and also for having proven the reality of absolute space and time).

Einstein published his theory of general relativity in 1915. (two years after Sagnac had conducted his famous, decisive experiment). Isn't that interesting???

4. Have you ever seen this :

Louis Essen, PhD (1908-1997) was a prominent English physicist who is mostly known for his invention of the atomic clock in 1955.  In 1988, he wrote that he rejected relativity theory because:

1) "Einstein's theory of relativity is invalidated by its internal errors," 
2) "Einstein's use of a thought experiment, together with his ignorance of experimental techniques, gave a result which fooled himself and generations of scientists,"
3) "Claims frequently made that the theory is supported by experimental evidence do not withstand close scrutiny."

One example of such dubious experimental evidence usually passed off as evidence in support of relativistic time dilation is the famous Hafele-Keating  (H & K) experiment of 1972, where four atomic clocks were flown around the world in commercial airliners, first westward, then eastward. Their result  allegedly supported Larmor time dilation. Such was relativist propaganda anyway.

This experiment has since been cited by over one thousand physics text books, professional journal articles, encyclopedia and Wikipedia articles, papers, etc, as scientific proof of Poincare-Lorentz relativity theory, or more commonly, “Einstein's theory of relativity” although he was still in high school when Larmor developed this idea. And for their alleged contribution to modern science, Hafele and Keating were nominated for the Nobel Prize in Physics.
   
However, Irish engineer Alphonsus G. (Al) Kelly, PhD obtained H&K's original experimental data from the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, DC.  This he meticulously and competently analyzed. He also researched the type of atomic clocks they used and discussed his findings in a 1995 paper and in a12-page appendix to his Challenging Modern Physics (2005) wherein he concluded:

1. Atomic clocks are very sensitive, certainly when it comes to measuring a few nanoseconds (billionths of a second). The atomic clocks used in this experiment were not of sufficient stability to support the conclusions drawn.  Dr. Louis Essen (1908-1997), the British physicist who invented the atomic clock in 1955, similarly commented on this experiment that, “the clocks were not sufficiently accurate to detect the small effect predicted.”
2.The clocks suffered considerable alterations in performance.
3.These alterations were greater than the net effect forecast by the experimenters.
4.The experimenters made undisclosed alterations to the raw data. This was tanamount to fabricating new data that would add up to the predicted values. That is to say, published data were fraudulent and bore no relation to the actual experimental results, with intention to add up to the predictions that were published before the experiment was conducted.

Thus this experiment may have been the biggest hoax in modern science history, and took place under the supervision of a U.S. government agency.

Canadian science researcher, Walter Babin (b.  1934) has a website where he publishes the General Science Journal, wherein he has published his knowledgeable and persuasive paper "An Analysis of the Theoretical Foundations of Special Relativity," among others, as well as thousands of papers by hundreds of other authors, mostly dissident scientists.

Like many competent scientists and science researchers of integrity before him, Babin discusses Einstein's mathematical and other errors and persuasively concludes that the special theory of relativity is null and invalid.


Einstein's theory of relativity” is substantially science fiction, fantasy or philosophy, and represents the worst of science : how science can become political, how political factors can affect funding, how funding can affect scientists? jobs and careers, how experimental data can be manipulated to serve as propaganda, and how theory can be presented as fact.

In his later years —to his credit— Albert confessed his sins.
In 1948 he wrote :
“In  the course of my long life I have received from my fellow-men far more recognition than I deserve, and I confess that my sense of shame has always outweighed my pleasure therein."

5. Rabinoz, have you ever seen this before :

You forgot number 4.

4. Let’s consider  aether doesn’t exist.


Why did you omit this?

Because aether exists.



Most scientists know about the Michelson-Morely experiment – that failed to detect any movement of the earth round the sun. This had to be overcome so the Fitzgerald-Lorentz shortening of the apparatus was proposed, and eventually the paradoxical Relativity Theory was invented by Einstein to overcome this problem. However, there are three other experiments that have been deliberately ignored by universities because they support geocentricity.

(a) The Michelson-Gale experiment (Reference – Astrophysical Journal 1925 v 61 pp 140-5) – This detected the aether passing the surface of the earth with an accuracy of 2% of the speed of the daily rotation of the earth! Thus, the Michelson-Morely experiment detected no movement of the earth around the sun, yet the Michelson-Gale experiment measured the earth’s rotation (or the aether’s rotation around the earth!) to within 2%! This surely speaks volumes for geocentricity.

(b) “Airey’s failure” (Reference – Proc. Roy. Soc. London v 20 p 35) – Telescopes have to be very slightly tilted to get the starlight going down the axis of the tube because of the earth’s “speed around the sun”. Airey filled a telescope with water that greatly slowed down the speed of the light inside the telescope and found that he did not have to change the angle of the telescope. This showed that the starlight was already coming in at the correct angle so that no change was needed. This demonstrated that it was the stars moving relative to a stationary earth and not the fast orbiting earth moving relative to the comparatively stationary stars. If it was the telescope moving he would have had to change the angle.

(c) The Sagnac experiment (Reference – Comptes Rendus 1913 v157 p 708-710 and 1410-3) – Sagnac rotated a table complete with light and mirrors with the light being passed in opposite directions around the table between the mirrors. He detected the movement of the table by the movement of the interference fringes on the target where they were recombined. This proved that there IS an aether that the light has to pass through and this completely destroys Einstein’s theory of Relativity that says there is no aether. It is for this reason that this experiment is completely ignored by scientists. More recently Kantor has found the same result with similar apparatus.

All these experiments are never taught at universities, so consequently, scientists, including most Christian creationists, are ignorant of this evidence for geocentricity.

As for MMX itself, the common interpretation by Special Relativity theorists is that the experiment yielded a “null” result. Yes, if you are looking for fringe shifts in the interferometer that coincide with an Earth moving around the sun at 30km/sec, I guess one would be predisposed to conclude that the results of MMX were “null.”

But the truth is, in the technical sense of the term, the results of MMX were anything but “null.” Null means zero, but MMX did not register a zero ether drift.

So was the case for every interferometer experiment performed for the next 80 years until the 1960s – a small ether drift that was a fraction of 30km/sec. This was a conundrum for Einstein and his followers, since the Special Theory of Relativity, which was invented to answer MMX, claimed that there was NO ether at all in space – none, nada, zilch, zero. In fact, Einstein said that if there was any ether in space, then his theory is nullified.

He said, “If Michelson-Morley is wrong, then Relativity is wrong.” - Einstein: The Life and Times, p. 107.
So, according to Einstein : IF AETHER EXISTS, THEN RELATIVITY IS WRONG!

So Einstein simply dismissed the fractional ether drift of MMX as a mere artifact.But the sad fact is, scientifically speaking, artifacts would not have appeared in all the dozens of interferometer experiments performed over the next 80 years.“Artifacts” are posited only because modern interpreters are bound to the Copernican Principle, by their own admission.

If there is no ether wind, than Earth is spinning with the ether, but Geocentrism (where the universe rotates around Earth) can't have that. Earth must be motionless with neither translation nor rotation. So if the universe is spinning around Earth, the ether should be too, and this spin around Earth causes a drift.

If there were indeed no drift at all detected by Michelson-Morley, this would be equally support for a non-orbiting Earth as it is for Relativity. However, if a drift is detected, and this drift is not big enough to account for Earth's orbital motion, but is big enough to account for the ether drift, than Michelson-Morley is evidence of Geocentrism to the exclusion of Relativity (because Relativity can't have any drift whatsoever).

Michelson-Morley originally obtained a slight positive result which has been systematically ignored or misrepresented by modern physics. As stated by Michelson-Morley :

"...the relative velocity of the earth and the ether is probably less than one-sixth the earth's orbital velocity, and certainly less than one-fourth. ... The experiment will therefore be repeated at intervals of three months, and thus all uncertainty will be avoided." (Michelson-Morley 1887)...Unfortunately, and in spite of all claims to the contrary, Michelson-Morley never undertook those additional experiments at the different seasonal configurations, to "avoid all uncertainty". However, Miller did.

Miller’s work is hardly known or mentioned, as is the case with nearly all the experiments which produced positive results for an ether in space. Modern physics today points instead to the much earlier and less significant 1887 work of Michelson-Morley, as having “proved the ether did not exist”.

While Miller had a rough time convincing some of his contemporaries about the reality of his ether-measurements, he clearly could not be ignored in this regard. As a graduate of physics from Princeton University, President of the American Physical Society and Acoustical Society of America, Chairman of the Division of Physical Sciences of the National Research Council, Chairman of the Physics Department of Case School of Applied Science (today Case Western Reserve University), and Member of the National Academy of Sciences well known for his work in acoustics, Miller was no “outsider”. While he was alive, he produced a series of papers presenting solid data on the existence of a measurable ether-drift, and he successfully defended his findings to not a small number of critics, including Einstein. His work employed light-beam interferometers of the same type used by Michelson-Morley, but of a more sensitive construction, with a significantly longer light-beam path. He periodically took the device high atop Mt. Wilson (above 6,000' elevation), where Earth-entrained ether-theory predicted the ether would move at a faster speed than close to sea-level. While he was alive, Miller’s work could not be fundamentally undermined by the critics. However, towards the end of his life, he was subject to isolation as his ether-measurements were simply ignored by the larger world of physics, then captivated by Einstein’s relativity theory.

There are several newspaper accounts indicating a certain tension between Albert Einstein and Dayton Miller, since the early 1920s at least. In June of 1921, Einstein wrote to the physicist Robert Millikan: "I believe that I have really found the relationship between gravitation and electricity, assuming that the Miller experiments are based on a fundamental error. Otherwise, the whole relativity theory collapses like a house of cards." (Clark 1971, p.328)

Speaking before scientists at the University of Berlin, Einstein said the ether drift experiments at Cleveland showed zero results, while on Mount Wilson they showed positive results. Therefore, altitude influences results. In addition, temperature differences have provided a source of error.

"The trouble with Prof. Einstein is that he knows
nothing about my results." Dr. Miller said. "He has
been saying for thirty years that the interferometer
experiments in Cleveland showed negative results. We
never said they gave negative results, and they did
not in fact give negative results
. He ought to give
me credit for knowing that temperature differences
would affect the results. He wrote to me in November
suggesting this. I am not so simple as to make no
allowance for temperature."

(Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper, 27 Jan. 1926)

Miller's work on ether drift was clearly undertaken with more precision, care and diligence than any other researcher who took up the question, including Michelson, and yet, his work has basically been written out of the history of science. When alive, Miller responded concisely to his critics, and demonstrated the ether-drift phenomenon with increasing precision over the years. Michelson and a few others of the period took Miller's work seriously, but Einstein and his followers appeared to view Miller only as a threat, something to be "explained away" as expeditiously as possible. Einstein in fact was catapulted into the public eye following the end of World War II. Nuclear physics was then viewed as heroic, and Einstein fast became a cultural icon whose work could not be criticized. Into this situation came the Shankland team, with the apparent mission to nail the lid down on Miller's coffin. In this effort, they nearly succeeded.

6. Rabinoz, have you ever seen this before :

However, in GC model, we (God) can speed up the rotation of the stars (or slow down sun's daily orbit around the earth) in order to lengthen the difference between sidereal and synodic times.
And that will be no different to doing so in the HC model.
You will still get a difference of 1 day.
In GC model we can (by speeding up the stars, or slowing down the sun) achieve two sidereal annual rotations, and in HC we can't! Ask Alpha2Omega if you don't believe me!

To read before bed (a gift from above) :

As one can see, the shell game of modem science continued and Lorentz
became its premier magician, all in an effort to avoid having to admit to
the audience the possibility that the Earth was standing still in space.

The issue was further obfuscated when physicists began creating
different responses to explain the “contraction” solution. At one point
Lorentz held:

“Yes, it is as real as anything we can observe,” to which
Sir Arthur Eddington retorted, “We say it contracts; but length is not a
property of the rod; it is a relation between the rod and the observer .

 
At another time Eddington said:

“The shortening of the moving rod is true, but it is not really true .”

In one of his more sober moments, however, he added:

“...it was like the adventures of Gulliver in Lilliputland and Alice’s
adventures in Wonderland.”


Albert Michelson didn’t buy it either. To him the Lorentz solution was artificial,
mainly because the so-called contraction was independent of the elastic property
inherent in the interferometer itself, as in, for example, the resilience of a
tennis ball returning to its original shape after it is struck.

He writes of Lorentz’s proposal:

Such a conclusion seems so improbable that one is inclined to return to
the hypothesis of Fresnel and try to reconcile in some other way
the ‘negative result’ [of the Michelson-Morley experiment].

Arthur S. Eddington, The Nature of the Physical World, New York, MacMillian
Company and Cambridge University Press, 1929, pp. 33-34, emphasis his.

At other points Lorentz admitted he was uncertain. In 1904 he stated:

It need hardly be said that the present theory is put forward
with all due reserve. Though it seems to me that it can account
for all well-established facts, it leads to some consequences
that cannot as yet be put to the test of experiment. One of these
is that the result of Michelson’ s experiment must remain negative..
.

The experiments of which I have spoken are not the only
reason for which a new examination of the problems connected
with the motion of the Earth
is desirable... in order to explain
Michelson’ s negative result, the introduction of a new
hypothesis has been required... Surely this course of inventing
special hypotheses for each new experimental result is
somewhat artificial. It would be more satisfactory if it were
possible to show by means of certain fundamental
assumptions ...


Notice that Lorentz is concerned with “problems connected with
the motion of the Earth
,” which tells us that the fear of being forced to
accept the “unthinkable” immobile Earth was the basis upon which his
ad hoc solution was determined. Reading between the lines we know that
Lorentz was concerned with the fact that, if he could not come up with a
convincing explanation to Michelson-Morley, he and the rest of the
world would be in for a great embarrassment. Undaunted, Lorentz put
the contraction theory of Fitzgerald into a mathematical formula and the
equation eventually became world famous. Known as the “Lorentz
Transformation,” it is still employed by many scientists today for almost
any problem having to do with dismissing the possibility that Earth is
motionless in space .

As Arthur Miller explains it, hoping to give it some respectability: “Lorentz (1886)
used Huygens’ principle and Fresnel’s hypothesis to deduce the velocity of light that
traversed a medium of refractive index N that was at rest where the source could have
been either on the Earth or in the ether [which] explained Arago’s experiment and an
equivalent one by George Biddell Airy. Lorentz continued (1886), by noting that from
the viewpoint of the geocentric system we could say that ‘the waves are entrained by
the ether’ according to the amount -v/N 2 . For consistency with the nomenclature of the
time Lorentz defined v r as the velocity of the ‘relative ray’ and c/N as the velocity of
the ‘absolute ray.’ For example, in order to view the light from a fixed star, a telescope,
or a system of aligned slits, at rest on the Earth had to be oriented in the direction of the
relative ray because the relative ray was the direction in which energy was
transported. . ..On the other hand, an observer at rest in the ether measured the velocity
of the light that was propagating through the medium at rest on the moving Earth to be
c' = M r + v. ..Lorentz noted that the ether-fixed observer could interpret [c' = u T + v] as
the ‘entrainment of the light waves by the ponderable matter” {Albert Einstein 's Special
Theory of Relativity, pp. 19-20).

Of course, even Einstein could see through this hodgepodge of ad hoc explanations,
politely calling them “asymmetries which do not appear to be inherent in the phenomena,”
in his 1905 Annalen der Physik article. In the end, Lorentz was forced to admit:
“Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest, and the relative rays
were the absolute rays”
{ibid., p. 20).
Einstein: The Life and Times, p. 120.


Other confusing statements include Wolfgang Pauli’s:

“It therefore follows that the Lorentz contraction is not a property of
a single rod taken by itself, but a reciprocal relation between two such rods
moving relatively to each other, and this relation is in principle
observable” (Wolfgang Pauli, Theory of Relativity, Dover Publications, 1958, pp. 12-
13);

and Herman Minkowski’s:

“This hypothesis sounds extremely fantastical, for the contraction is not to be
looked upon as a consequence of resistances in the ether, or anything of that kind,
but simply as a gift from above, - as an accompanying circumstance of
the circumstance of motion” (“Space and Time,” in The Principle of Relativity :
A Collection of Original Memoirs on the Special and General Theory > of
Relativity by H. A. Lorentz, A. Einstein, H. Minkowski and H. Weyl, translated by W.
Perrett and G. B. Jeffery from the original 1923 edition, Dover Publications, 1952, p.
81).

7. Rabinoz, have you ever seen this before :

And this quote:
"Redshifts would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the ancient conception of a central Earth[. . . ],
This hypothesis cannot be disproved"
Edwin Hubble
Here again, you have taken it right out of context. For a start Edwin Hubble did not write, "Redshifts would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe".
He wrote, "Such a condition would imply that we occupy . . . . " and the "Such a condition" obviously was "a distribution in which the density increases with distance, symmetrically in all directions" and not "Redshifts".
:
Quote
The assumption of uniformity has much to be said in its favour. If the distribution were not uniform, it would either increase with distance, or decrease. But we would not expect to find a distribution in which the density increases with distance, symmetrically in all directions. Such a condition would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the ancient conception of a central earth. The hypothesis cannot be disproved but it is unwelcome and would be accepted only as a last resort in order to save the phenomena. Therefore, we disregard this possibility and consider the alternative, namely, a distribution which thins out with distance.
And note he that did not simply say, "This hypothesis cannot be disproved" but said "The hypothesis cannot be disproved but it is unwelcome and would be accepted only as a last resort in order to save the phenomena. Therefore, we disregard this possibility and consider the alternative, namely, a distribution which thins out with distance."

The hypothesis cannot be disproved but it is unwelcome?!?!?!?!
Really? And because it is unwelcome we are going to reject it!
But the question is this :
1. Why such hypothesis is unwelcome?
2. How can you justify rejecting such hypothesis on the basis that it is unwelcome hypothesis? Science should be ideologically neutral/indifferent/unbiassed discipline, shouldn't it? Since modern science is ideologically determined it is no longer science!

You might read this :


As for your HC holly grail (Stupidity known as Theory of Relativity, so called : An affront to common sense) :

Be that as it may, the question that awakens one's attention is - why should Relativity (GR), when predicting the outcome of the MGP experiment, expect a positive fringe shift with regard to the rotation of the earth, whereas beforehand, as a Special Theory (SR), it had based its axiomatic assumptions upon the null result of the MM experiment with regard to translation of the earth?[/quote]
Because the MMX experiment was intended to measure a uniform linear velocity (no acceleration) and the MGP experiment was measuring a rotation which involves acceleration - big difference![/quote]

1. If, with General Relativity, Einstein had attempted to demonstrate that the fundamental laws of Physics ought to be the same in inertial and non-inertial, or revolving, frames of reference, why should inertial frames be unable to optically measure their translation, but non-inertial frames be able to measure their rotation?  The question is all the more poignant as Newton's Law of Gravitation was easily deduced from Kepler's Laws of Planetarian Translation, but remained disconnected from planetarian rotation. Yet, the circular-Galilean or elliptico-Keplerian motion of the planets must be considered to be just as much a form of angular motion as planetary rotation is.

Because Relativity, in its restricted form, had largely discarded the problem of rotation from consideration of the null effect of the MM-type experiments, it could appear to be consistent with both electromagnetic detectability of rotation and undetectability of translation, and thus appear to withstand not only  this  contradiction  but  also  its  ambivalence  with  regard  to  the  detectability  or undetectability of rotation!

The ensuing confusion amongst physicists was so deep, that the results of the MGP experiment could advantageously be seen to confirm Einstein's Relativity with respect to rotational motion, irrespective of the outcome of the experiment (!) - and just as well appeared to confirm the adequacy of Michelson's method to detect the rotary deflection predicted by aether theory.  While Relativity was satisfied with the negative result with respect to translation, it was nearly indifferent to the results obtained with respect to rotation.

This  ambiguous situation was reflected in the ranks of relativists. Those who believed that the positive result from the MGP experiment was significant, like Silberstein, would argue that all it proved was that "the earth rotates in its axis", and those who believed that the result was non-significant, like A. Compton, would conclude that the earth's rotation had no effect on the speed of light and that the MGP experiment had definitely disproved the aether-drag hypothesis and confirmed Relativity. The latter view has today become the accepted one, and most discussions of the speed of light tests ignore the MGP experiment and feel justified in doing so. 

Jaffe, in his book, "Michelson and the speed of light", gives the matter one paragraph in which he does not even report the findings.
However, at the time, in 1925, the lines were not yet drawn in the sand, and the perplexed and ambivalent state of physicists and relativists alike was translated by the famous New York Times headline of January 9, 1925 - "Michelson Proves Einstein Theory - Ether-Drift is Confirmed - Rays found to travel at different speeds when sent in opposite directions"!!

The paradox could not have been greater.

A. Compton was ultimately correct - if the results of the MGP experiment are, or were, to be considered significant, they could never be seen as proving Einstein's theory.  What was consistent with Mach's principle was the complete inability of an observer to detect either his rotation or his translation by optical reference to a fixed aether.  Hence, for A. Compton, the MGP experiment presented a non-significant phase difference and therefore confirmed Relativity because there was no aether-drag that could or should be invoked. 

With the triumph of this view, a new set of rules had insidiously crept into the game.  Relativity now required a null result in both the MM and the MGP experiments, and the door was closed on the matter of the aether.
-----------------------------
-----------------
-----------


So, once again, just for you Rabinoz :

The problem is that the 'aether' that Einstein increasingly appeared to have in mind, rather than becoming, as promised, a 'non-material, non-mechanical  and  gravitational  aether', became instead a pure metaphysical fiction; a disembodied physical reality endowed solely with a mathematical existence. Instead of discovering a dynamic aether comprised of non-mechanical and electrogravitic properties, Relativity  ended  up with a pure geometric form set in an imaginary four-dimensional Space-time.   

And this fiction succeeded in the minds of physicists because it became metaphysically endowed with mechanical properties, courtesy of the dictatorship of the absolute speed of light. Hence, the curvature of space  remains a  function of matter, and when the matter required to explain this curvature is found to be 'missing', recourse is taken to  the expedient explanation  that  it  is missing no  longer but has miraculously been 'born-again' as black or invisible (ie undetectable) mass... 

It is here that Relativity ceased being a scientific theory, to become an academic doctrine bandied about with the same arbitrarinessas any other religious vision of the world.  A platonic metaphysics of the form. It is physical nonsense to speak of a pure Space devoid of matter and  energy.  Such a pure Space is not an aether, but a meta-aether, a metaphysical aether, like the Ur-Aether of Lenard. And whether we call it the void of Spacetime and write it in four dimensions, or call it meta-aether and retain Euclidean Space as pure  container, it remains a metaphysical abstraction.

8. Rabinoz, have you ever seen this before :

We must understand the mechanism of the tides, he insist, and the way to begin to do
this  is  to  have  a  laboratory  scale model  of  the  tides.  Galileo invites his readers to
consider a rectangular shallow flat bottomed basin of water:  'just like' the water in the
ocean basin.  Galileo asks:  “What happens if I rhythmically push the basin forward and
pull the basin back?”  If the rhythm is correct, Galileo states you will get an oscillating
wall of water moving back and forth, which is a model of the tides.  This motion is the
alternate  acceleration  and  deceleration  of  the  water.    But  how  is  this  alternately
accelerating and decelerating motion of the seas and oceans produced on Earth?

In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. 
We  shall assign  speeds  to  the Earth’s motions:    its orbital  speed around  the Sun, Vo,
and  its  speed  of  axial  daily  rotation Vd.   Now  consider  a point on  the  surface of  the
Earth  at noon  time.   What  is  the  speed of  that point  in  space  at noon?    It  is Vo+Vd. 
What  about  at  midnight  when  the  same  point  has  moved  around  with  the  spinning
Earth?  What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed
is at noon  time and  the minimum speed  is at midnight.   And every day every point on
the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd  to a minimum Vo-
Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24
hours  that means  that  every  point  on Earth  is  alternately  accelerated  and  decelerated,
accelerated and decelerated, and so on.   And Galileo’s conclusion  is  that  in  the oceans
and seas, subjected to this daily alternation of acceleration and deceleration, you would
get the sloshing of the tides!

(https://i.postimg.cc/W4kjbV4w/GALILEO-FIGURE-1.jpg)
 
This  theory  is wrong  in  terms  of  the  later Newtonian  physics,  and Galileo was  also
wrong  in  the eyes of his friends who would not accept his  theory of  the  tides.  One of
the  reasons Galileo’s  theory was not convincing was  that  there were other  theories of
the tides. For example,  Kepler said “The Moon affects the oceans and causes the tides”. 
Galileo disagreed with Kepler, asking how  this occurred, by some  'magical' action at a
distance.   Another person  to dispute his  theories was  the magician, alternative Natural
Philosopher and Dominican, Tommaso Campanella who asked why humans,  trees and
houses, were not accelerated and decelerated all the time. Galileo’s motion of the tides
also completely contradicts his inertial motion theory. So, his theory of the tides did not
convince many people.

Now what about  the meaning of  the Galileo affair?   There are certain points  that are
true in this affair for observers of varied persuasions:  Firstly, Galileo was presenting a
fragmentary  set  of  arguments  against  an  established world  view.   Galileo was  not  a

8. Rabinoz, have you ever seen this before :

We must understand the mechanism of the tides, he insist, and the way to begin to do
this  is  to  have  a  laboratory  scale model  of  the  tides.  Galileo invites his readers to
consider a rectangular shallow flat bottomed basin of water:  'just like' the water in the
ocean basin.  Galileo asks:  “What happens if I rhythmically push the basin forward and
pull the basin back?”  If the rhythm is correct, Galileo states you will get an oscillating
wall of water moving back and forth, which is a model of the tides.  This motion is the
alternate  acceleration  and  deceleration  of  the  water.    But  how  is  this  alternately
accelerating and decelerating motion of the seas and oceans produced on Earth?

In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. 
We  shall assign  speeds  to  the Earth’s motions:    its orbital  speed around  the Sun, Vo,
and  its  speed  of  axial  daily  rotation Vd.   Now  consider  a point on  the  surface of  the
Earth  at noon  time.   What  is  the  speed of  that point  in  space  at noon?    It  is Vo+Vd. 
What  about  at  midnight  when  the  same  point  has  moved  around  with  the  spinning
Earth?  What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed
is at noon  time and  the minimum speed  is at midnight.   And every day every point on
the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd  to a minimum Vo-
Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24
hours  that means  that  every  point  on Earth  is  alternately  accelerated  and  decelerated,
accelerated and decelerated, and so on.   And Galileo’s conclusion  is  that  in  the oceans
and seas, subjected to this daily alternation of acceleration and deceleration, you would
get the sloshing of the tides!

(https://i.postimg.cc/W4kjbV4w/GALILEO-FIGURE-1.jpg)
 
This  theory  is wrong  in  terms  of  the  later Newtonian  physics,  and Galileo was  also
wrong  in  the eyes of his friends who would not accept his  theory of  the  tides.  One of
the  reasons Galileo’s  theory was not convincing was  that  there were other  theories of
the tides. For example,  Kepler said “The Moon affects the oceans and causes the tides”. 
Galileo disagreed with Kepler, asking how  this occurred, by some  'magical' action at a
distance.   Another person  to dispute his  theories was  the magician, alternative Natural
Philosopher and Dominican, Tommaso Campanella who asked why humans,  trees and
houses, were not accelerated and decelerated all the time. Galileo’s motion of the tides
also completely contradicts his inertial motion theory. So, his theory of the tides did not
convince many people.

Now what about  the meaning of  the Galileo affair?   There are certain points  that are
true in this affair for observers of varied persuasions:  Firstly, Galileo was presenting a
fragmentary  set  of  arguments  against  an  established world  view.   Galileo was  not  a
Natural  Philosopher  in  the  systematic  sense  of  say, Aristotle  or  later  on Newton,  or
Descartes.  Galileo had his telescope, his theory of the tides and his theory of motion --
his physics. He could persuade people of his theory but he could not replace, system for
system, the existing total picture.  This is one of the drawbacks for Galileo.

Yet, we must also consider that it was perfectly reasonable in 1633 that Tycho’s system
could be proved right and that Aristotle's could be patched up to agree with the
Tychonic  system. Galileo’s trial comes  down to a political value judgement and the
balance of the judgement was something like this: Do you follow Galileo without  a
system into a new view which may have religious or political repercussions. Or, do you
stick with an old view, which is under criticism, but which has not been overthrown and
which seems to be successful in helping to solidify the political and  institutional order
on  the Catholic  side.  These were value  judgements. A  frame-ups of Galileo aside,  it
would seem perfectly reasonable to have adopted the latter position. 

There was no reason in some supposed scientific method, or 'the nuggety facts' that would seem to
have favoured one or the other position in 1633, and that is the fundamental point that
we have been trying to come to grips with in these two Chapters on the Galileo affair.

The bottom line is this :
No, the bottom line is this:
You started a thread claiming rockets can't work in a vacuum.
You have been completely unable to substantiate your claims and plenty of people have refuted them.
Rather than admit you are wrong, you instead decide to spam by bringing up loads of other topics, plenty of which have already been refuted.

If you want to discuss your already refuted arguments regarding the aether, go back to those threads.

Now, can you answer my question:
What force acts on the gas to push it out of the rocket in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Since you referred to my post #337 (regarding Galileo's wrong conception of the mechanism of tides), then as one of those who have idea of the science and facts involved, care to respond to this challenge :

If we put an accelerometer at the equator, why at night we do not see an acceleration and a deceleration by day if the earth really rotates?
The dark side of the earth away from the sun is moving faster of course (relative to the sun) as it is shooting forward.  And the sunny side is moving 'backward" or at least slower than the dark side.
So... 65,000 mph around the sun.
Dark side moving at 66,000mph.
Light side moving at 64,000mph.
So... In 12 hours from midnight to mid day, YOU should reduce in speed my 2000mph around the sun.  This means that every min in that 12 hours, you are slowing down 2.777777 mph.  Very small amount.  A human cannot feel this.  But an accelerometer TOTALLY can.  This mean I should be able to put my cellphone on a table and see the accelerometer showing a reading. 
Right?

WRONG!

a) You insist on changing the subject, once we have thoroughly refuted your nonsense (please see the topic of this thread 'Rockets can't fly in a vacuum')

b) Regarding the above drivel, we don't feel anything because there is no acceleration. You are chosing arbitrary frames of reference where none exist ... 'Forward' and 'Backward' in your post have no meaning!

care to respond to this challenge :
Your challenge has already been met repeatedly.
All it does is show that you don't understand how acceleration works on a rotating body.

It is irrelevant to the topic at hand, which is if rockets work in a vacuum.

Perhaps you can respond to my challenge which is directly related to that topic:
What force acts on the gas to eject it from the rocket in a particular direction?
What is the other body involved in this interaction?

Again, the only rational responses is that the rocket is applying a force on the gas to push it out the back of the rocket which means the gas will push the rocket forwards, which means rockets will work in a vacuum.

Do you have a different explanation?
If not, then rockets work in a vacuum, even if it is just a cold gas thruster.

Light side moving at 64,000mph.
Why is that a problem for you? The earth is rotating on its axis and that rotation is a constant magnitude acceleration directed towards the centre of the earth.
The nett effect of that is to gradually, over a 12 hour period, change the surface velocity at the equator from 1036 mph in the same direction as the orbital velocity to 1036 mph in the opposite direction to the orbital velocity.

Hence your roughly 66,000 mph gradually changes to 64,000 mph over a 12 hour period.

No, your phone will not show a reading!

As noted above that acceleration appears to you as always down and so simply changes the effective g an imperceptible amount - about 0.034 m/s2 in 9.780 m/s2 at the equator.
That is one of the reasons that the effective g is slightly lower at the equator = more evidence of a rotating earth!

As a simple approach you can use the rocket thrust equation and ignore the pressure term.
So just taking your numbers for the machine gun, the force will be 1.2 kg/s * 825 m/s = 990 N.
Assuming it is going straight up, then the force it needs to provide just needs to counter gravity, and thus for a 100 kg load needs to be roughly 980 N.

But quickly checking, your numbers are off. The bullet weight isn't 24 g. That is the weight of the entire round, including the gas and cartridge which would be ejected at much slower speeds.
The actual bullet, which is what leaves at the quoted speed is only 9.6 g, or 0.4 times the mass you used. That means the thrust would be roughly 0.4 times the previously calculated thrust or 396 N.
That isn't even enough to lift your 50 kg person.

If you have a correct percentage you can also simplify it a bit.
If the percentage mass flow rate multiplied by the velocity is greater than g (roughly 9.8 m/s^2), it can fly.
Sticking in the original numbers you gave for the gun person that gives 9.9. Correcting it to the actual bullet (0.48%) you only get 3.96. So you aren't going to fly.

It can fly???

Again, the only rational responses is that the rocket is applying a force on the gas to push it out the back of the rocket which means the gas will push the rocket forwards, which means rockets will work in a vacuum.

In addition to jokes. This is the same as before sailing ships with a direct sail along the rivers. You asked yourself a question, is this even possible? Everyone before the flood sailing ships had fans that blew into the sail. So look for the analogy with rockets. Yes, and vimana flew without problems to other planets.

But, seriously? You guys are arguing heliocentrism vs. geocentrism with a young-Earth creationist.  ::)

MacAndrew: Let’s examine other ways in which his hypothesis fails. Across much of his writing Sungenis and his supporters repeatedly fall into what I call the Great Inconsistency, appealing to the conclusions of General Relativity while vehemently  rejecting  them (see Here Comes the Sun, p.17, and There He Goes Again, p.2). 

R.Sungenis
: Let’s get some perspective. Mr. MacAndrew knows that the very science he believes in, namely, General Relativity supports geocentrism, but he is too dishonest to give this information to the world. He would rather pretend it doesn’t exist and instead accuse me of “inconsistency” because I point out to the world what he won’t. His goal is to take the focus off his own sleight of hand and put the onus on me. But the truth is, he is very embarrassed that Einstein supported geocentrism. 

Nevertheless, let me say once again so that Mr. MacAndrew can finally  stop misrepresenting my appeal to GRT: I don’t appeal to GRT because I believe in it, but because Mr. MacAndrew believes in it! What better way to expose the fallacy of your opponent’s position than to point out that his system denies him the very thing he wants to achieve – to deny geocentrism. As St. James says in 1:23‐24: “For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.”

MacAndrew: The section from GWW that we are reviewing is no exception. He quotes W G V Rosser’s review of General Relativity approvingly in spite of the fact that he rejects the theory: “As Rosser notes “light can assume ANY NUMERICAL VALUE depending on the strength  of  the...centrifugal  gravitational  field”  which  has  “enormous  values  at  large distances.” Sungenis is more interested in the rhetorical capital he can make from Rosser’s statements than he is in adopting a self‐consistent case for geocentrism.

R.Sungenis : MacAndrew is a guy who lives in a glass house (since his own GRT believes in geocentrism) but he keeps throwing stones at me for pointing this out to the world. He then has the audacity to say that we are using GRT because our own theory is not “self‐consistent.” Let’s set the record straight. We don’t believe in GRT. The reason is because it is not consistent. SRT contradicts GRT and GRT contradicts Quantum Mechanics, so we don’t dare use any of them to support geocentrism. Quoting John Wheeler again, here is what he has to say regarding the bankrupt theories of SRT and GRT:

The [Heisenberg] uncertainty principle [of Quantum Mechanics] thus deprives one of any way whatsoever to predict, or even to give meaning to, “the deterministic classical history of space evolving in time.” No prediction of spacetime, therefore no meaning for spacetime, is the verdict of the quantum principle. That object which  is  central  to  all  of  classical  general  relativity,  the  four‐dimensional spacetime geometry, simply does not exist, except in a classical approximation.

So what other physics, from the world’s perspective, do we have that does what Einstein’s GRT did for geocentrism? Lo and behold, Newton’s physics does the same thing for geocentrism that Einstein did – he makes it viable. Of course, Newton’s admission has been hidden from us for a long time, but it was finally released. As Steven Weinberg puts it in his latest book, "To Explain the World" :

If we were to adopt a frame of reference like Tycho’s in which the Earth is at rest, then the distant galaxies would seem to be executing circular turns once a year, and  in  general  relativity  this  enormous  motion  would  create  forces  akin  to gravitation, which would act on the Sun and planets and give them the motions of the Tychonic theory. Newton seems to have had a hint of this. In an unpublished ‘Proposition 43’ that did not make it into the Principia, Newton acknowledges that Tycho’s theory could be true if some other force besides ordinary gravitation acted on the Sun and planets.

Here is what Newton said in Proposition 43:

In order for the Earth to be at rest in the center of the system of the Sun, Planets, and Comets, there is required both universal gravity and another force in addition that acts on all bodies equally according to the quantity of matter in each of them and is equal and opposite to the accelerative gravity with which the Earth tends to the Sun... Since this force is equal and opposite to its gravity toward the Sun, the Earth can truly remain in equilibrium between these two forces and be at rest.  And thus celestial bodies can move around the Earth at rest,as in the Tychonic system.

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641

But, seriously? You guys are arguing heliocentrism vs. geocentrism with a young-Earth creationist.  ::)

MacAndrew: Let’s examine other ways in which his hypothesis fails. Across much of his writing Sungenis and his supporters repeatedly fall into what I call the Great Inconsistency, appealing to the conclusions of General Relativity while vehemently  rejecting  them (see Here Comes the Sun, p.17, and There He Goes Again, p.2). 

R.Sungenis
: Let’s get some perspective. Mr. MacAndrew knows that the very science he believes in, namely, General Relativity supports geocentrism, but he is too dishonest to give this information to the world. He would rather pretend it doesn’t exist and instead accuse me of “inconsistency” because I point out to the world what he won’t. His goal is to take the focus off his own sleight of hand and put the onus on me. But the truth is, he is very embarrassed that Einstein supported geocentrism. 

Nevertheless, let me say once again so that Mr. MacAndrew can finally  stop misrepresenting my appeal to GRT: I don’t appeal to GRT because I believe in it, but because Mr. MacAndrew believes in it! What better way to expose the fallacy of your opponent’s position than to point out that his system denies him the very thing he wants to achieve – to deny geocentrism. As St. James says in 1:23‐24: “For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.”

Some here will no doubt find it amusing that a heliocentric flat-Earther is arguing with a geocentric round-young-Earth creationist, but your quote from Newton does not mean what you think it means. Newton says, in effect "A stationary Earth would require an unknown force that counteracts gravity" and you conclude that he's arguing for a stationary Earth, when he's actually saying that a stationary Earth is a preposterous notion.

You also point to a well-known discrepancy between Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. But in spite of that, both of them are so well-established in their respective realms that we know both to be correct, as far as they go. In the realm of the unimaginably small, QM is correct. In the realms of the unimaginably massive and the unimaginably fast, Relativity is correct. And in the realm of the normal day-to-day lives of humans, Newtonian physics is close enough to make no difference. Your argument that Relativity is meaningless because there's a discrepancy, simply does not hold water and demonstrates a failure to understand Relativity. (Nobody understands QM, and anybody who claims to is lying.  ;) )

As for sailboats, the old square riggers probably couldn't get much closer than 60 degrees to the wind, but modern sailboats can get within 45 degrees, maybe closer. This is why sailboats have to tack. But they can beat upwind, with some difficulty. Just not directly into it. This is one reason you won't see sailboats on very narrow rivers. They go on rivers wide enough to allow tacking. Anybody who's ever been on a sailboat knows that they are not limited to sailing downwind. As a matter of fact, a well-designed sailboat is fastest when sailing on a beam reach or close-hauled.

Though I am not usually a loss for words, I find it hard to express my admiration for this masterpiece, which has no peer and constitutes without a doubt the definitive work on the subject of geocentrism...You are to be congratulated not only on your erudition and command of an incredibly vast subject matter, but also on the logical clarity of your presentation and lucidity of style. At your hands this subject of virtually unimaginable complexity becomes ‘almost’ simple, and certainly understandable (up to a point) to nonspecialists. Let me not swell this letter; perhaps I will get back to you on some specific points. Today I just wanted to express my admiration for your book, which strikes me as epochal in its implications...Yours sincerely in Christ, signed, Wolfgang Smith.”

Some here will no doubt find it amusing that a heliocentric flat-Earther is arguing with a geocentric round-young-Earth creationist, but your quote from Newton does not mean what you think it means. Newton says, in effect "A stationary Earth would require an unknown force that counteracts gravity" and you conclude that he's arguing for a stationary Earth, when he's actually saying that a stationary Earth is a preposterous notion.

Maybe we should add to what Newton said in Proposition 43, the following story :

So, an open-loop Sagnac effect proves that there is a rotational motion of an aether around the stationary earth.
No it doesn't. An open loop Sagnac can be the consequence of a stationary aether around a rotating Earth, a rotating aether around a stationary Earth, a rotating aether around a rotating Earth or a rotating Earth due to relativity. The only honest conclusion is relativity, as the experiments regarding aether show that aether doesn't exist.

As for stationary aether around the rotating earth, this hypothesis has been refuted with MMX experiment in combination with MGPX,  and other interferometry experiments...Firstly it was refuted with Airy's failure experiment that had been conducted in 1871 by Sir George Airy : Water in telescope causes no change in aberration ==> deflection occurs in transit â sideways aether flow.

James Bradley was the guy to whom my countryman Ruđer Bošković (forgotten croatian genius) - during his visitation to London - proposed to conduct a decisive experiment in order to determine if the earth orbits the sun!!! Almost 100 years later (In 1871) G. B. Airy (1802-1892) implemented the verification of Bradley's aberration hypothesis proposed by Bošković. Bošković even designed a telescope filled with water in all its components, which was implemented at the Greenwich observatory in 1871, that is, 84 years after his death.

Of course, Airy's water-filled instrument did not deliver the desired proof of the Copernican paradigm. Agreeing with somewhat similar tests already performed by Hoek and Klinkerfusz, the experiment demonstrated exactly the opposite outcome of that which had to be confidently expected. Actually the most careful measurements gave the same angle of aberration for a telescope with water as for one filled with air.

Airy put water in the telescope to test Bradley's claim that the moving Earth
caused aberration; he saw no change in aberration angle with the water
added.  This was termed a ‘failure’, since Bradley’s theory of receiver motion
predicted a change with the index of refraction – n.

CONCLUSION: The deflection of starlight known as stellar aberration is NOT due
to the Earth’s motion, but is an external bending of light before reaching the
telescope.

In order to stress the all-embracing importance of that short-
sightedness (with respect to Bradley's fictitious “stellar aberration”),
which has been blatantly accepted for nearly two hundred years,
it may be well to cite a twentieth-century appraisal of Bradley's and Airy's
quandary by the Dutch physicist, J. D. van der Waals, Jr. :

”Aberration may equally well be squared with the supposition that
the stars indeed describe circlets. And though we find the latter
explanation improbable and prefer the first, the question may arise:
is it in no way possible by means of observations to decide which of
the two suppositions is the right one?”


In short, the convinced Copernican Bošković
proposed the right thing for the wrong reason
. He supposed that a
water-filled telescope would conclusively prove the heliocentric
theory. But to translate a Dutch expression: “with that crooked
stick, Airy made a straight hit.” His experiment was powerless to
show that Gamma Draconis' circular movement was only
apparent. Shortsightedly forgetting the fact that telescopes cannot
bend radiation to look around corners, he affirmed on the
contrary that stars really describe orbits equal to that of the sun.

Consider : according to the ruling paradigm, it makes no
physical difference whether I declare either the earth to move
with respect to everything else at rest, or declare the earth to be at
rest with respect to sun and stars moving around. Starting from an
earth at rest, and hence aberration being absent, then whatever the
truth, the annual standard size circlets of all the stars are real and
not caused by our 29.8 km/sec orbital velocity. Instead of a
heliocentric “aberration,” we are confronted with a geocentric
parallax, and these parallaxes being practically the same size for
all stars, these stars must be at the same distance from us. This
points to the existence of the stellatum of old.

Regarding the proposition of a rotating aether around a rotating Earth, it is refuted by directional gyro experiments, by an absence of a counter-momentum when making loop maneuvers (aviation), and it also can be tested (very easily) with the method which i have proposed earlier in this thread (improved (facilitated) version of an experiment with moving platforms and vertically firing bullets).

With this proposition (No 3) you reminded me to one incredibly interesting story which you have never heard of :

The foregoing treatise illustrates in itself the difficulties facing Bošković in his efforts to reconcile the latest scientific achievements with the latest scientific achievements with the teaching about the immobility of the Earth.

The problem plagued him also because he sought to develop the most acceptable solution, i.e., one that would oppose neither the ruling prohibition of the teaching about the motion of the Earth nor the increasingly large body of scientific knowledge. On the one hand, the Church and the Index forbade him to accept the motion of the Earth; on the other, the latest scientific results, Newtonian physics in particular, could not be reconciled with the immobility of the Earth. The system proposed by Tycho Brahe did offer some hope and a way out, however, and Bošković advocated it initially.

Indeed, Brahe's system admitted equally of Newtonism and of Peripatetic natural philosophy. It was an inversion of the Copernican system and was mathematically structured along the same lines. Brahe's system implied an immovable Earth, hence its agreement with Peripatetic natural philosophy based on the same implication. On the other hand it also lent itself to the application of Newtonian physics because it only involved the inversion of the Sun and the Moon as compared with the Copernican system. These advantages of Brahe's system underlay its almost undivided acceptance in the Jesuit and Franciscan schools of thought during the first half of the 18th century.

The system was related more often to Aristotelian than to Newtonian natural philosophy. This is precisely why Bošković thought that it held some hope for resolving his own dilemma.

In later years Bošković changed his views with regard to the immobility of the Earth. Regardless of this fact, and even regardless of the lifting of the ban on teaching based on the motion of the Earth, he was convinced, almost until his death, that the system developed by Tycho Brahe could be used to advantage while accepting the latest scientific achievements as well.

In a popular review of astronomy for sailors, written towards the end of his life and included in the fifth volume of the Opera pertinentia ad opticam et astronomiam, published in 1786 in Bassano, he admittedly no longer advocated Brahe's system, but nevertheless voiced the following thought :

"Tycho's system, albeit much more complicated, explains all phenomena equally well as that of Copernicus, and all the reasons derived by Galileo from astronomical phenomena fail to prove the worth of Copernicus's system as against Tycho's. Yet, the arguments deriving from the successive propagation of light and from the physical causes of motion, available to us today and found to comply increasingly with the phenomena, necessarily imply the diurnal and annual motion of the Earth unless one accepts the assumption which I developed thirty years ago and which provides the obvious although infinitely improbable possibility that the opposite might be true."

Bošković refers here to his assumption presented in De cometis (On Comets), published in Rome in 1746. In a note to De iride et aurora boreali (On the Rainbow and the Aurora Borealis) By C. Noceti, his professor at the Collegium Romanum, Bošković expressed the conviction that he had found a way "whereby we shall be permitted to use, while retaining the idea of the immobility of the Earth, everything used by those who hold that it moves."

All these endeavours were focused on reconciling Newtonian physics with the immobility of the Earth. Boškovic's concern with the matter is apparent in many of his works; thus, in De maris aestu (On the Tides), published in 1747, he discussed the possible application of Newtonian mechanics to the question of the immobility of the Earth.

The latter hypothesis, stated for the first time in De cometis (1746), may be summed up as follows : Bošković imagined the existence of a stellar space containing all earthly and celestial bodies reached by our senses. This is, therefore, the space within which all observations and experiments are carried out. This space is governed by Newtonian physical laws, thus the Earth revolves about the Sun, while all other motions of the Earth resulting out of Newtonian mechanics are also possible. This space, however, is not Newton's absolute, infinite and immovable space, of which Bošković tells us nothing. Bošković' stellar space moves in relation to absolute space and, obviously, provides for an infinite number of possible combinations. The motion of the earth in this absolute space, therefore, would vary depending on the motion of stellar space in relation to absolute space. However, if this stellar space moves within absolute space, and if its motion is always opposite to the motion of the Earth in stellar space, i.e., to its daily revolution round the equatorial axis, yearly motion about the Sun and all other minor motions, the Earth would be immovable in absolute space.

Of course, the case is infinitely improbable but, as Bošković hypothesized, if the Creator wanted the Earth to be immovable, the requirement would certainly be met. This would comply with the holy writings and permit, without any danger, the acceptance of Newton's physics in its entirety. "Indeed, the Earth will be absolutely and really immovable in relation to absolute space, and will only move relatively and apparently in relation to this movable space."

The solution reconciled Newton's physics with the immobility of the Earth, albeit not in relative, stellar space to which such physics applies but in absolute space. It also permitted Bošković to discuss only relative space, governed by Newtonian physics, in which the Earth moves. On the other hand, the interpretation also raised new issues regarding absolute and relative space, as will be discussed later.

Therefore, although Bošković wanted to freely expound Newtonian mechanics, he also tried not to reject the immobility of the Earth, i.e., the official view of the Church and, accordingly, of the Collegium Romanum. Although Bošković' endeavours were obvious, his views were not regarded favourably by the Collegium. This applies in particular to his Theoria. The severity of the conflict is best explained by the events which took place in 1754

Who was Ruder Boškovic : http://www.croatia.org/crown/articles/10055/1/Rudjer-Boskovic-a-famous-Croatian-scientist-born-300-years-ago-in-1711.html

>>>With his theory of forces R. Boškovic was a forerunner of modern physics for almost two centuries. It was described in his most important book Theoria Philosophiae naturalis (Vienna 1758, Venice 1763, London 1922, American edition in 1966).

Werner Heisenberg (Nobel prize for physics in 1932) wrote the following:

"Among scientists from the 18th century Boskovic occupies outstanding place as a theologian, philosopher, mathematician, and astronomer. His "Theoria philosophiae naturalis" announced hypotheses which were confirmed only in the course of last fifty years. "<<<

IN ADDITION :

The  most  famous  Internalist  of  Science  was  Alexander  Koyré,  who  died  in  1964. 
Thomas  Kuhn,  a  generation  younger,  thought  that  Koyré  was  an  absolute  hero  and
model  in  the historiography of science.  Koyré was a Jewish-Russian emigre; he was a
'white Russian', who was anti-Soviet and anti-Marxist.  He said that our perception and
description of facts depends upon our prior conceptual framework.  Koyré also said that
there is no method that is used to produce Science.  You cannot go out observe facts and
generalise.  He also believed that every scientific theory is embedded in a further set of
deep assumptions which shape that theory.  This set of deep background assumptions is
called  the metaphysical background  to  that  theory.   Koyré was one of  the  inventors of
that idea.  In all of that, I agree with Koyre, and we have been exposed here to Koyrean
ideas, but it does not mean that I agree with everything Koyré was saying.   
 
Koyre wanted  to produce a historiography, a master narrative of how  it all happened. 
In  a  couple  of  sentences  this  is  Koyré’s  story:   Modern  science  (by  this  he  means
Copernicus,  Kepler,  Newton)  is  not  based  on  the  discovery  of  a  method.   Modern
science is based on all the people involved in that science suddenly adopting a new and
different metaphysical  background.   What  is  this  ‘metaphysics’?    It  is  the  belief  that
nature is fundamentally mathematical and quantifiable.  It is the type of idea embodied
in what I have called Platonism and neo-Platonism in the Scientific Revolution.  Koyré
was  working  with  an  idea  that  there  is  one  and  only  one  metaphysics  for  modern
science, this kind of watered-down Platonism.  Koyré often writes that we should not be
Whiggish, yet I feel that unconsciously Koyre was himself Whiggish.  Koyré states that
Aristotle  was  not  ignorant  but  that  he  had  the  wrong  metaphysics.    You  could  not
develop  modern  science  with  Aristotle’s  metaphysics  for  it  is  the  ‘wrong’  one. 
Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton,  they  all  stumbled  upon  the  ‘right’ metaphysics
and progressed.  Thus, Koyré is like a Whiggish historian of metaphysics!  I think it is
difficult to state that one metaphysics is better than any other metaphysics.  This is one
of the places where I part company with Koyré.

Rabinoz, haven't i told you to change your local drug dealer?
Yes, you have thrown out plenty of insults because you have no rational response.

Again, you resort to spouting loads of irrelevant nonsense and still refuse to deal with the topic at hand.
There are plenty of other threads, already created by you, that you have already brought these points up in and had them refuted.
If you want to discuss them, go there.

Do you accept that you were wrong and that rockets can indeed work in a vacuum?
If not, answer the question you have been avoiding since the first time it was brought up:

What force accelerates the gas out the back of the rocket and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Some here will no doubt find it amusing that a heliocentric flat-Earther is arguing with a geocentric round-young-Earth creationist, but your quote from Newton does not mean what you think it means. Newton says, in effect "A stationary Earth would require an unknown force that counteracts gravity" and you conclude that he's arguing for a stationary Earth, when he's actually saying that a stationary Earth is a preposterous notion.

Maybe we should add to what Newton said in Proposition 43, the following story :

So, an open-loop Sagnac effect proves that there is a rotational motion of an aether around the stationary earth.
No it doesn't. An open loop Sagnac can be the consequence of a stationary aether around a rotating Earth, a rotating aether around a stationary Earth, a rotating aether around a rotating Earth or a rotating Earth due to relativity. The only honest conclusion is relativity, as the experiments regarding aether show that aether doesn't exist.

As for stationary aether around the rotating earth, this hypothesis has been refuted with MMX experiment in combination with MGPX,  and other interferometry experiments...
Try again! "MMX experiment in combination with MGPX, and other interferometry experiments" are better explained by no luminiferous aether and relativity.

Quote from: cikljamas
Firstly it was refuted with Airy's failure experiment that had been conducted in 1871 by Sir George Airy : Water in telescope causes no change in aberration ==> deflection occurs in transit â sideways aether flow.
Try again! Airy's null-result experiment that had been conducted in 1871 by Sir George Airy is better explained by no luminiferous aether and relativity.

Quote from: cikljamas
James Bradley was the guy
who showed that stellar aberation could easily be explained by the earth orbiting the sun.

Quote from: cikljamas
Of course, Airy's water-filled instrument did not deliver the desired proof of the Copernican paradigm. Agreeing with somewhat similar tests already performed by Hoek and Klinkerfusz, the experiment demonstrated exactly the opposite outcome of that which had to be confidently expected. Actually the most careful measurements gave the same angle of aberration for a telescope with water as for one filled with air.

Airy put water in the telescope to test Bradley's claim that the moving Earth caused aberration; he saw no change in aberration angle with the water
added.  This was termed a ‘failure’, since Bradley’s theory of receiver motion predicted a change with the index of refraction – n.
Only if you deny relativity. But no matter how you wriggle all aspects of stellar aberration cannot be explained by a stationary earth and motion of the stars.
Then stellar parallax really throws a spanner in the works!

Quote from: cikljamas
CONCLUSION: The deflection of starlight known as stellar aberration is NOT due to the Earth’s motion, but is an external bending of light before reaching the telescope.
Incorrect as has been explained many times!

Quote from: cikljamas
In order to stress the all-embracing importance of that short-sightedness (with respect to Bradley's fictitious “stellar aberration”), which has been blatantly accepted for nearly two hundred years, it may be well to cite a twentieth-century appraisal of Bradley's and Airy's quandary by the Dutch physicist, J. D. van der Waals, Jr. :

”Aberration may equally well be squared with the supposition that the stars indeed describe circlets."
<< That seems irrelevant to me! >>
No, stellar aberration cannot be explained by "with the supposition that the stars indeed describe circlets."
You night read (I assume that either you didn't read it or didn't understand it last time): Geocentrism and Stellar Aberration: Illuminating the Earth’s Motion (https://www.geocentrismdebunked.org/geocentrism-and-stellar-aberration/).
In particular note the part on rapidly rotating binary stars.

Quote from: cikljamas
Regarding the proposition of a rotating aether around a rotating Earth, it is refuted by directional gyro experiments, by an absence of a counter-momentum when making loop maneuvers (aviation), and it also can be tested (very easily) with the method which i have proposed earlier in this thread (improved (facilitated) version of an experiment with moving platforms and vertically firing bullets).
No! Aircraft Directional Gyro are totally irrelevant here and are simply a device to stabilise the magnetic compass and must be reset often from the magnetic compass.

And I fail to see the relevance of any "(improved (facilitated) version of an experiment with moving platforms and vertically firing bullets)."

You also point to a well-known discrepancy between Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. But in spite of that, both of them are so well-established in their respective realms that we know both to be correct, as far as they go. In the realm of the unimaginably small, QM is correct. In the realms of the unimaginably massive and the unimaginably fast, Relativity is correct. And in the realm of the normal day-to-day lives of humans, Newtonian physics is close enough to make no difference. Your argument that Relativity is meaningless because there's a discrepancy, simply does not hold water and demonstrates a failure to understand Relativity. (Nobody understands QM, and anybody who claims to is lying.  ;) )

As for sailboats, the old square riggers probably couldn't get much closer than 60 degrees to the wind, but modern sailboats can get within 45 degrees, maybe closer. This is why sailboats have to tack. But they can beat upwind, with some difficulty. Just not directly into it. This is one reason you won't see sailboats on very narrow rivers. They go on rivers wide enough to allow tacking. Anybody who's ever been on a sailboat knows that they are not limited to sailing downwind. As a matter of fact, a well-designed sailboat is fastest when sailing on a beam reach or close-hauled.

Michelson and Morley demonstrated that the aether does not exist. Einstein explained why it is not needed. A hundred walls of copy/past from the internet cannot change that. The aether is one broken egg that all the king's horses and all the king's men cannot put back together again.

As a simple approach you can use the rocket thrust equation and ignore the pressure term.
So just taking your numbers for the machine gun, the force will be 1.2 kg/s * 825 m/s = 990 N.
Assuming it is going straight up, then the force it needs to provide just needs to counter gravity, and thus for a 100 kg load needs to be roughly 980 N.

But quickly checking, your numbers are off. The bullet weight isn't 24 g. That is the weight of the entire round, including the gas and cartridge which would be ejected at much slower speeds.
The actual bullet, which is what leaves at the quoted speed is only 9.6 g, or 0.4 times the mass you used. That means the thrust would be roughly 0.4 times the previously calculated thrust or 396 N.
That isn't even enough to lift your 50 kg person.

If you have a correct percentage you can also simplify it a bit.
If the percentage mass flow rate multiplied by the velocity is greater than g (roughly 9.8 m/s^2), it can fly.
Sticking in the original numbers you gave for the gun person that gives 9.9. Correcting it to the actual bullet (0.48%) you only get 3.96. So you aren't going to fly.

It can fly?

Something is fishy around here :

Let's quote an excerpt from one interesting article :

So we’ve answered Rob’s question. With enough machine guns, you could fly.

But our AK-47 rig is clearly not a practical jetpack. Can we do better?

My Texas friends suggested a series of machine guns, and I ran the numbers on each one. Some did pretty well; the MG-42, a heavier machine gun, had a marginally higher thrust-to-weight ratio than the AK-47.

Then we went bigger.

The GAU-8 Avenger fires up to sixty one-pound bullets a second. It produces almost five tons of recoil force, which is crazy considering that it’s mounted in a type of plane (the A-10 “Warthog”) whose two engines produce only four tons of thrust each. If you put two of them in one aircraft, and fired both guns forward while opening up the throttle, the guns would win and you’d accelerate backward.

To put it another way: If I mounted a GAU-8 on my car, put the car in neutral, and started firing backward from a standstill, I would be breaking the interstate speed limit in less than three seconds.


(https://i.postimg.cc/90hWLjhV/RECOIL-CAR.jpg)

Let's repeat this sentence :

If you put two of them in one aircraft, and fired both guns forward while opening up the throttle, the guns would win and you’d accelerate backward.

I call bullshit on this!!!

This is the classical example of discordance between math and reality!

That is why we need experiments or thought experiments (in absence of real experiments)...

The question arises (thought experiment) : When A-10 (in flight) opens fire from his gatling gun (GAU-8) does he decelerate for 60 %???

According to this video A-10 doesn't decelerate, AT ALL :

Projectiles, five-to-one mix of
PGU-14/B Armor Piercing Incendiary mass: 395 grams
PGU-13/B High Explosive Incendiary (HEI) mass: 378 grams

In practice, the cannon is limited to one and two-second bursts to avoid overheating and conserve ammunition.
The average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 45 kN or 4589 kgf,
which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 40.3 kN or 4109 kgf.

While this recoil force is significant, in practice a cannon fire burst slows the aircraft only a few miles per hour in level flight.

Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II

Rabinoz, using your data above (the first passage), you don't get 45 kN... I know where you made a mistake, do you?
However, the average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 45 kN, indeed...which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 40,3 kN.

So, applying 45 kN force in counter direction (for 3 seconds (i counted it)) is equal to losing (instantly) all forward momentum produced by one of two A-10's engines, and 10 % of the thrust of another engine of an airplane (which amounts to losing 56% of the entire thrust power of both A-10's engines).

In another words, we should witness the spectacular sight in the sky, easily noticing by naked eyes as A-10 rapidly slows down while firing it's heavy rounds during these 3 long seconds, shouldn't we?

If your "understanding" of how recoil force works were correct, then an effect of firing A-10's insanely powerful gatling gun would be the same as instantly applying full force of a hypothetical third A-10's engine in counter direction of A-10's flight, or an instant fall off (or an instant blow up) of one of A-10's engines (plus losing 10 % of the thrust of another engine), wouldn't it?

I am not saying that all Christians and only Christians believed/believe that the Earth stands still. I am speculating that your insistence on favoring Aristotle over Newton might come from your belief that the Bible is a better source of knowledge than the science that came later. And note please that Copernicus, Kepler, and Newton did not follow the modern evangelical belief that the Bible is a reliable source of knowledge of physics. They believed in the Christian God, but they read the Bible as allegory (as did most if not all Christians back then) and were therefore open to the possibility that the world might not be exactly as described therein.

I am merely trying to understand why you would believe in a young Earth. AFAIK, only people who regard the Bible as inerrant and literal believe the Earth to be younger than around 4 1/2 billion years old, give or take half a billion. And while even many young-Earth creationists believe in the heliocentric solar system, I've never heard of a geocentrist in modern times (say, within the last hundred years) who was not also a young-Earth creationist and a Bible literalist.

But I would be happy to be corrected regarding your view of the Bible.

(As I said earlier, I regard it as a very cool book, but not a reliable source of information about anything.)

If your "understanding" of how recoil force works were correct, then an effect of firing A-10's insanely powerful gatling gun would be the same as instantly applying full force of a hypothetical third A-10's engine in counter direction of A-10's flight, or an instant fall off (or an instant blow up) of one of A-10's engines (plus losing 10 % of the thrust of another engine), wouldn't it?
I didn’t check the calcs but if the force from gun cancels out force from engines for three seconds all it means is the aircraft can’t accelerate. Big deal.

Exactly, a direct sail will not allow ships to sail along rivers. And sailing ships really sailed. So tell me, how did they do it? After all, they could not violate all the known laws of physics. Or not?

GAU-8 Avenger
Rate of fire: 3,900 rpm
Muzzle velocity: 1010 m/s
Projectiles, five-to-one mix of
PGU-14/B Armor Piercing Incendiary mass: 395 grams
PGU-13/B High Explosive Incendiary (HEI) mass: 378 grams

In practice, the cannon is limited to one and two-second bursts to avoid overheating and conserve ammunition.
The average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 45 kN or 4589 kgf,
which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 40.3 kN or 4109 kgf.

Rabinoz, using your data above (the first passage), you don't get 45 kN... I know where you made a mistake, do you?
However, the average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 45 kN, indeed...which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 40,3 kN.

If the plane has 2 x 40.5 kN, and losses 45 kN, it still hase remaining 81-45 = 36 kN.
So, for 2-3 seconds the power is reduced from 81 to 36, and still remains positive.
After those 2-3 sec, it gets back to 81.

For how much could reduction to 36 kN for 2-3 seconds, slow it down while diving? :)

According to this aviation website, there is an effect on the A10:

https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/46317/how-much-is-airspeed-reduced-on-an-a10-warthog-when-firing-its-cannon

But as others in this thread have mentioned, it only blips it's guns for a few seconds. And since it's a ground attack aircraft, it's pointing downwards anyway when firing and so gravity assists its forward motion.

Why are you using as one of your authorities on astronomy and science, someone who who's training and background is theology and religion, and a charlatan at that it seems:

https://www.geocentrismdebunked.org/sungenis-proposition-readers/

Here is an endorsement dr. Robert Sungenis received from Wolfgang Smith, a professor of physics and mathematics at MIT:

April 2010: “Dear Dr. Sungenis: Since writing to you two days ago to thank you for your letter and the gift of your two-volume treatise, I have had a chance to peruse this  work  and  feel  compelled  to  congratulate  you  and  Dr.  Bennett  on  this outstanding achievement! Though I am not usually a loss for words, I find it hard to express my admiration for this masterpiece, which has no peer and constitutes without a doubt the definitive work on the subject of geocentrism...You are to be congratulated not only on your erudition and command of an incredibly vast subject matter, but also on the logical clarity of your presentation and lucidity of style. At your hands this subject of virtually unimaginable complexity becomes ‘almost’ simple, and certainly understandable (up to a point) to nonspecialists. Let me not swell this letter; perhaps I will get back to you on some specific points. Today I just wanted to express my admiration for your book, which strikes me as epochal in its implications...Yours sincerely in Christ, signed, Wolfgang Smith.”

Now, let me present you mr Wolfgang Smith :
COPERNICAN PRINCIPLE DESTROYED - part 2 :


Why is it that I think the two talking heads in the video aren't convincing me of geocentrism…………………..

And doesn't the letter's language seem flowery to you? Almost as if it's a mickey take.

I answered this in Reply 366 above:

As for sailboats, the old square riggers probably couldn't get much closer than 60 degrees to the wind, but modern sailboats can get within 45 degrees, maybe closer. This is why sailboats have to tack. But they can beat upwind, with some difficulty. Just not directly into it. This is one reason you won't see sailboats on very narrow rivers. They go on rivers wide enough to allow tacking. Anybody who's ever been on a sailboat knows that they are not limited to sailing downwind. As a matter of fact, a well-designed sailboat is fastest when sailing on a beam reach or close-hauled.

Sailboats can and do sail against the wind. Just not directly into it. In the days of old sailing ships, they never sailed on narrow rivers. They only sailed on rivers wide enough to tack back and forth to beat against the wind. Visit any large body of water and you will see sailboats beating against the wind with your own eyes.

Actually, wind resistance would slow it down a teeny tiny bit. Still no big deal.

I have explained it to you. It is not my fault if you cannot understand it. Sailboats beat into the wind by tacking. No sailboat can sail directly against the wind. Unless, as kabool suggested, they turn the motors on. :)

On narrow rivers and canals, sometimes boats or barges are pulled upstream by people or animals walking on a tow path with ropes.

No sailboat has ever sailed to the moon, however that is not the topic of this thread. The topic is the moon hoax (which is not a hoax) and rockets being unable to fly in a vacuum (which they can do... I almost said "easily," but it's really not easy at all to design and build a rocket... amazingly, though, folks do it, and not just NASA; the Russians do it, the Chinese do it, even the North Koreans do it).

The geocentric hypotheses of Greek and Islamic cosmology and astronomy were not based on religious beliefs but on solid empirical observations.
No, it was based entirely upon religious beliefs and baseless assumptions.
There was not and still is not a single shred of evidence to support geocentrism.
But again, this has nothing to do with the topic at hand, which is about rockets and their ability to fly in a vacuum.

I don't have to address your question, because i've proven my point (numerous times) without addressing your question, don't you get it???
If you want to be honest, then you do need to address my question.
The only point you have proven is that you have no rational defence for your position.

This one simple question destroys your position as it shows rockets need to work in a vacuum or key parts of physics need to be wrong.


all i have to do is to prove (show/demonstrate) that A-10 doesn't decelerate (AT ALL, LET ALONE FOR 60 % - roughly), while firing it's heavy rounds at incredibly fast rate!
And so far all you have done along those lines is show a video where the speed is not clearly shown.
And you are still just pulling numbers from no where.
You would need to go through the origin of your numbers (to show that the deceleration is what is expected), and actually have them make sense, and then actually show that it doesn't follow that.
Also make sure in any "experiment" you provide, you also note the direction of flight. If it is going up while firing, it is also fighting gravity, but if it is going down, such as in a dive normally done when shooting ground based targets, then gravity will be trying to speed it up.
What does decelerate for 60% even mean?

Rabinoz, using your data above (the first passage), you don't get 45 kN
You are right, you only get roughly 26 kN.
Part may be due to the different fire rates available, but another factor is the gas itself. All of this assumes the gas is not leaving the gun at any significant velocity.

equal to losing (instantly) all forward momentum
It doesn't matter how many times you repeat this nonsense, it won't magically make it true.
You don't magically lose all forward momentum.
The A-10 will keep its forward momentum and be acted upon by the thrust of the engine, the drag from flying through the air, and the recoil force of the gun.

and 10 % of the thrust of another engine of an airplane (which amounts to losing 56% of the entire thrust power of both A-10's engines).
i.e. it will be down to 40% of the maximum possible thrust from the engine.
Notice how that doesn't magically mean it should rapidly slow down.
Now you need to calculate the force of the drag on the aircraft to determine just how quickly it should be slowing down.

Until you do that you just have your dramatic over-exaggeration and misunderstanding of physics.

Now, care to answer my question:
What force accelerates the gas out the back of the rocket and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

I’ll just point out here that the A10 is an air to ground attack aircraft, with a fixed cannon.

Seems likely that the cannon is most likely fired with the aircraft pitching down, which will substantially affect the airspeed for a given thrust.

I’ll leave it at that, because discussing weapons of war from a purely technical standpoint leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

In practice, the cannon is limited to one and two-second bursts to avoid overheating and conserve ammunition.
The average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 45 kN or 4589 kgf,

Rabinoz, using your data above (the first passage), you don't get 45 kN... I know where you made a mistake, do you?
I made no mistake!
I earlier said that "I haven't bothered checking yet" and I just used the average force quoted.
But,  if you know where I made a mistake, let's know because I can easily make mistakes and miss something.

The figures given seem show:
Muzzle velocity: 1010 m/s, Rate of fire: 65 rounds/sec average mass per round: 0.392 kg.
So my calculations for the average force during firing is: 1010 × 65 × 0.393 = 25713 N or 25.7 kN
The Wikipedia entry states
Quote
The average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 10,000 pounds-force (45 kN), which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 9,065 lbf (40.3 kN). While this recoil force is significant, in practice a cannon fire burst slows the aircraft only a few miles per hour in level flight.
I'm not going to bother over the reason for the difference right now so let's go with the 45 kN.

Quote from: cikljamas
However, the average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 45 kN, indeed...which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 40,3 kN.

So, applying 45 kN force in counter direction (for 3 seconds (i counted it)) is equal to losing (instantly) all forward momentum produced by one of two A-10's engines, and 10 % of the thrust of another engine of an airplane (which amounts to losing 56% of the entire thrust power of both A-10's engines).
It just reduces the nett thrust by 56% for 3 seconds but that will do no more than reduce to airspeed slightly.

The momentum of those (3 × 65) shells of mass 0.393 kg leaving at 1010 m/s is 21,450 kg.m/s.
The loaded A-10 Warthog might have a mass of about 20,000 kg and attacked at about 300 mph or 134 m/s.
So its momentum would have been about 2,680,000 kg.m/s or 125 times the momentum of those shells.

Quote from: cikljamas
In another words, we should witness the spectacular sight in the sky, easily noticing by naked eyes as A-10 rapidly slows down while firing it's heavy rounds during these 3 long seconds, shouldn't we?
No! As I, hopefully, showed above the momentum of the plane (2,680,000 kg.m/s) far outstrips that of a 3-second burst (21,450 kg.m/s).

Quote from: cikljamas
If your "understanding" of how recoil force works were correct, then an effect of firing A-10's insanely powerful gatling gun would be the same as instantly applying full force of a hypothetical third A-10's engine in counter direction of A-10's flight,
Yes, but only for not more than 3 seconds, so all that happens is a slight reduction in speed.

Quote from: cikljamas
or an instant fall off (or an instant blow up) of one of A-10's engines (plus losing 10 % of the thrust of another engine), wouldn't it?
No, because the thrust would be restored again after no more than 3 seconds. Why would you suggest anything drastic might happen?
The A-10 could fly continuously on one engine though at reduced speed.

In any case plenty of aircraft have had a flame-out on one engine and all happens is that they fly slower and head for the best diversion airport.

The lower tusks – clearly visible here – when combined with a very dense lower jawbone, can pack a real punch, and are actually the seriously dangerous tusks.
They might look ugly, slow and ungainly but they sport some serious armament and can inflict a frightening among of damage.

So sorry, I forgot we were talking about the A-10 Warthog.

Rabinoz, the momentum of A-10 is pretty high, no doubts about that. However, if your "understanding" of how recoil force works were correct, then an effect of firing A-10's insanely powerful gatling gun would be quite different than it is, despite the huge momentum of A-10, because it wouldn't be the best way to picture this situation in this way : A-10 engines suddenly simply loose a great portion of their thrust... It would be more like A-10 hypothetical third engine instantly applies it's FULL force in counter direction of A-10 motion...Not only that...
A-10 operational (average attack) speed is 300 mph = 480 km/h...
A-10 max speed = 450 mph = 720 km/h
So, A-10 operational speed is 66 % of A-10 max speed
What it means?
4 tons of max. thrust of each engine (at 300 mph) is reduced to 2,64 tons of thrust of each engine or 5,28 thrust of both engines.
Since, GAU-8 Avenger produces almost five tons of recoil force, it means that during our 3 long seconds entire thrust of both A-10 engines is canceled out (according to your interpretation of how recoil force works).

Now, let's get back to my midget-soldier midget project.

(https://i.postimg.cc/3xgxzVDz/RUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKET.jpg)

The GAU-8 itself weighs 620 pounds (280 kg), but the complete weapon, with feed system and drum, weighs 4,029 pounds (1,828 kg) with a maximum ammunition load.

980 N force is needed for lifting 100 kg.
980 * 18,28 = 17,91 kN

If we replaced "SKHAS Ultra" Russian machine gun with GAU-8 Avenger, then we get 2,5 times more force than needed for lifting off our midget soldier and/on his "rocket" (GAU-8 Avanger)...

Now, all you have to do is to jump on your GAU-8 Avanger "rocket" and demonstrate to us, how you can EASILY harness GAU-8 power as your flying broom(stick).

Only beware of such unwanted (unexpected) consequences :

No, it wouldn't.
It has a significant loss of thrust for a very brief period. That will have no significant effect.

because it wouldn't be the best way to picture this situation in this way : A-10 engines suddenly simply loose a great portion of their thrust... It would be more like A-10 hypothetical third engine instantly applies it's FULL force in counter direction of A-10 motion...Not only that...
The 2 are the same.

What it means?
Very little, as speed is not a simple linear function of engine thrust.

Now, let's get back to my midget-soldier midget project.
No, lets ditch the stupid thought experiments.
If you want go get a gun like that and show it doesn't have the recoil that science clearly indicates it should.

Or better still, ANSWER THE QUESTION:
What force accelerates the gas out the back of the rocket and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

No, my "understanding" of how recoil force works is correct, thank you but the burst I'd only for 3 seconds so the momentum is still not very high.

Comparing the momentum of that 3 sec burst is the only way to look at it because that is how to work out the change in the planes speed during that 3 seconds.

Quote from: cikljamas
The momentum of those (3 × 65) shells of mass 0.393 kg leaving at 1010 m/s is 21,450 kg.m/s.
The loaded A-10 Warthog might have a mass of about 20,000 kg and attacked at about 300 mph or 134 m/s.
So its momentum would have been about 2,680,000 kg.m/s or 125 times the momentum of those shells.
The speed of the A-100 would only be reduced by about 300/125 = 2.4 mph in agreement with the stated "few mph".

But even if your guesses were correct it is completely irrelevant because I never used the engine thrust in my calculations.
The engines don't lose any thrust anyway but the burst lasts no more than 3 seconds.

This is why sailboats have to tack. But they can beat upwind, with some difficulty. Just not directly into it. This is one reason you won't see sailboats on very narrow rivers.

Sailboats can and do sail against the wind. Just not directly into it. In the days of old sailing ships, they never sailed on narrow rivers.

I am still waiting for your explanation of how sailboats could circumvent the law of physics. Probably the same as the rockets that fly in space?

I have explained it to you. It is not my fault if you cannot understand it. Sailboats beat into the wind by tacking. No sailboat can sail directly against the wind. Unless, as kabool suggested, they turn the motors on. :)

On narrow rivers and canals, sometimes boats or barges are pulled upstream by people or animals walking on a tow path with ropes.

No sailboat has ever sailed to the moon, however that is not the topic of this thread.

What the notoriously corrupt United States federal government is claiming is to have sent men to the moon in 1969, on the VERY FIRST attempt, even though right here on earth Mt. Everest and the South Pole took NUMEROUS tries before success, allegedly accomplishing this amazing feat with 50 YEAR older technology (a cell phone has ONE MILLION times more computing power than ALL of NASA did in 1969), yet 50 YEARS later NASA can now only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon, even with 5 DECADES more advancements in rockets and computers.

If Toyota claimed they made a car 50 YEARS ago that could travel 50,000 miles on one gallon of gasoline, yet today their best car can only go 50 miles per gallon, or ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance, would not the forgery of the previous claim be incredibly obvious? If it were not for people's pride and emotional attachment to the 50 YEAR OLD unrepeatable moon landing claim, also with only ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance capable 5 DECADES later, they would otherwise easily recognize this equally preposterous claim as the fraud that it sadly is.

The alleged moon landings are the only technological claim in the entire history of the world, such as the first automobile, airplane, or nuclear power, which was not far surpassed in capability 50 YEARS later, much less not even able to be duplicated by any nation on earth 50 YEARS later. The supposed moon landings are also the only time in history that such claimed expensive technology was deliberately destroyed afterwards (175 BILLION DOLLARS worth), only done so to hide the evidence of the fraud.

Seeing how it is IMPOSSIBLE for technology to go BACKWARDS and today NASA can only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon as was claimed 50 YEARS ago on the VERY FIRST attempt with 5 DECADES OLDER technology, the only remaining conclusion is that the 1969 claim was a federal government lie. It is that simple and that corrupt.

Award winning filmmaker Bart Sibrel (Sibrel.com) presents his highly acclaimed controversial documentary "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon" which debuts newly discovered behind-the-scenes out-takes from the supposed first mission to the moon showing the crew staging the photography of being "halfway to the moon", conclusively proving that they never left earth orbit, as is still NASA's limit today 50 YEARS later.

At 21min 53 sec in this video, a microphone accidentally records an astronaut privately discussing telephoning the CIA to have investigative journalist Bart Sibrel assassinated, something that would not be necessary if Sibrel's discovery of the fraud was not true.

If we’ve been bamboozled long enough,

We’re no longer interested in finding out the Truth.

Yes, no ... There are even working models of sailing boats with a direct sail. Where the fans blow in the sails. And they successfully sail even against the wind. Carefully study the physics of this phenomenon. And you will be amazed at the simplicity of the solution. So it’s foolish to say that it’s a hoax when you look at the current model. Yes, 500 years ago, houses were already lit by electricity. This is also a proven fact. And there were electric motors, and electric-powered submarines, and even intercontinental cable communications ...
You do not know your true story. Throw away your Wikipedia and go outside and see how everything was arranged.
And the funny thing is that spacecraft using were already 7000 years ago. And nuclear fuel for them was extracted and enriched in huge factories, in the period from 7,000 thousand years ago, and up to 300 years ago. So gentlemen, rockets really fly in space and fly a very long time before the flood. That's just people will not be allowed to the moon, there is a base of immortal koshchei.

I still don't know what you mean by a "direct sail." But, no, a fan blowing into a sail will not work, because the fan produces a thrust in the opposite direction. That's what a propeller is: It creates forward lift and blows air out the back. If you have a fan, you point it backwards to push yourself forward, and you don't use a sail, because a sail would (partially) block the effect of the fan.

I still say you're just posting ridiculous things because you think it's funny. Which it is. I'd say the funny picture in your sig file is proof that you're being ridiculous on purpose.

No. The government says it sent men to the moon on the eleventh Apollo mission. And that came after all the Gemini missions. And those came after a very large number of un-manned launches. First short-range rockets. Then sub-orbital rockets. Then satellites. Then satellites with animals. Then sub-orbital flights with people. Then orbital flights with people. Then ten Apollo missions before the one that landed on the moon. Not on the first attempt. Not by a very long shot.

I don't know where you come up with these ridiculous ideas!

The U.S. government is corrupt. Entirely corrupt. But it did send men to the moon. There's no contradiction there. You can be corrupt and still accomplish remarkable things.

At least that is what Sibrel tells you to believe. Too bad he lies about it all. Most of the footage was broadcast live at the time, none was classified as he likes to say. The footage shows a small Earth that shows signs of rotation, current weather at the time, and it moves around in the window. all of that means they couldn't have been in low Earth orbit, they couldn't have used a circular window (clearly being filmed in a trapezoidal shaped window), they couldn't have used a cardboard cutout or a transparency. Sibrel has suggested all of those, moving from one to the other when shown to be incorrect.

They did a lot of prep work to make sure it would work, rather than sending men to die on the first attempt with no prep work.

50 YEARS later NASA can now only send astronauts
A distance based upon the rockets and the like that they have.

I notice that yet again you are running off on a massive tangent with other unrelated nonsense.

How about you stick to the one point and deal with it before moving on?
Can rockets work in space?
If not, please explain what force acts on the gas to accelerate it out of the rocket and what the other body involved in the interaction is and what happens to it.

"First Time" only if you ignore all the flights before Apollo 11 that tested everything except the final touchdown.
And then ignore all the other research from the X-15 flights, some by Neil Armstrong and then the flights of the Mercury and Gemini missions.

Your "car . . . . that could travel 50,000 miles on one gallon of gasoline" is nowhere near possible with current technology nor even with currently known theories.

Quote from: cikljamas
The alleged moon landings are the only technological claim in the entire history of the world, such as the first automobile, airplane, or nuclear power, which was not far surpassed in capability 50 YEARS later, much less not even able to be duplicated by any nation on earth 50 YEARS later.
The only reason that crewed missions stopped after Apollo is money, pure and simple,.
Your claim is, however, totally false because unmanned missions requiring far more complex technology

Quote from: cikljamas

 The supposed moon landings are also the only time in history that such claimed expensive technology was deliberately destroyed afterwards (175 BILLION DOLLARS worth), only done so to hide the evidence of the fraud.
That is total garbage! What was lost were the production lines that did not belong to NASA in any case. The plans and even detailed drawings are still on record.
But similar missions simply would not use the same engines or other technology anyway.
Every aspect of the technology has advanced tremendously since then but manufacturing techniques have also changed.
For example, the Rocketdyne F-1 engines were largely hand-made with thousands of individually welded parts.
As an exercise, an equivalent engine has been designed by young NASA engineers using modern manufacturing techniques. This needed under 100 components and could be mass-produced - as SpaceX and others do now.

Quote from: cikljamas
Seeing how it is IMPOSSIBLE for technology to go BACKWARDS and today NASA can only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon as was claimed 50 YEARS ago on the VERY FIRST attempt with 5 DECADES OLDER technology, the only remaining conclusion is that the 1969 claim was a federal government lie. It is that simple and that corrupt.
Total rubbish because your earlier claims are totally false. You stress "sending astronauts" yet completely ignore the uncrewed missions to the Sun, Mercury, Venus (including soft landings by Soviet craft), the Moon, Mars, all the other planets, past Pluto and some asteroids.

Quote from: cikljamas
Award winning filmmaker Bart Sibrel (Sibrel.com) presents his highly acclaimed controversial documentary "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon" which debuts newly discovered behind-the-scenes out-takes from the supposed first mission to the moon showing the crew staging the photography of being "halfway to the moon", conclusively proving that they never left earth orbit, as is still NASA's limit today 50 YEARS later.

At 21min 53 sec in this video, a microphone accidentally records an astronaut privately discussing telephoning the CIA to have investigative journalist Bart Sibrel assassinated, something that would not be necessary if Sibrel's discovery of the fraud was not true.


Hardly "an astronaut privately discussing telephoning the CIA" but his son asking a question - there is no discussion!

Your "Award-winning filmmaker Bart Sibrel" is simply a jerk and one of the few people with less understanding of physics, especially thermodynamics and radiation than YOU!

I'll say more about Bart Sibrel when I get the time but at least he believes in LEO manned missions, such as the ISS, and that is enough to make your geocentric ideas total hogwash!

I still don't know what you mean by a "direct sail." But, no, a fan blowing into a sail will not work, because the fan produces a thrust in the opposite direction. That's what a propeller is: It creates forward lift and blows air out the back. If you have a fan, you point it backwards to push yourself forward, and you don't use a sail, because a sail would (partially) block the effect of the fan.

I still say you're just posting ridiculous things because you think it's funny. Which it is. I'd say the funny picture in your sig file is proof that you're being ridiculous on purpose.

A direct sail is a straight sail. And not oblique, as they do now. Here is a video in which everything is explained. I think you can’t laugh anymore. In general, as I understand it, there is full censorship of all published scientific developments. And none of the scientists dare to confirm this. I may be a funny pony, but you cannot always ridicule the truth with impunity.

In the following I show that you are using known "Photoshopped" images, that did not come from NASA's image library in an attempt to prove NASA's dishonesty!

I'm not accusing you of "Photoshopping" these photos, just of being careless and incompetent in not showing due diligence by checking your sources.
Possibly the "Media" did it to "enhance" the images as they do!

Award winning filmmaker Bart Sibrel (Sibrel.com) presents his highly acclaimed controversial documentary "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon" which debuts newly discovered behind-the-scenes out-takes from the supposed first mission to the moon showing the crew staging the photography of being "halfway to the moon", conclusively proving that they never left earth orbit, as is still NASA's limit today 50 YEARS later.


At 22:38 in that video your show the following obviously "Photoshopped" image with the moon in the photo of Buzz Aldrin stepping down onto the lunar surface.
And by now you know it is a "Photoshopped" image because I,  for one have told you numerous times.

You used it in your "EIFFEL TOWER PROOF odiupicku" video.

I warned you then but you to chose to ignore that completely and here you are proving your deception and ignorance again.

As you, yourself, point out at 22:41 in this "APOLLO - HOAX OF THE CENTURY - part 5" video is a "Photoshopped" image.

But, Mr Cikljamas, that image did not come from the NASA archives - it is not a NASA photograph and I told you that but you refused to listen!

Using a known "Photoshopped" image that did not come from NASA's image library to attempt to prove NASA's deception is the height of hypocrisy and, if I might add, stupidity because you'll be found out, as you have!

I pointed out a similar case in Re: ROUND AND MOTIONLESS « Reply #13 on: January 23, 2019, 07:50:37 AM » (https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=79261.msg2138783#msg2138783)
and I pointed out that the photo you use in this video is a known "Photoshopped" photo but you ignored the warning!
Read this:
And I just noticed that you used another obviously Photoshopped image in that same video!
At 0:43 in your "EIFFEL TOWER PROOF odiupicku" you show this in the lower right corner:

Photoshopped "Earth from Moon", by odiupicku

Your daring to claim "I have demonstrated my honesty by admitting (every single time) that i was wrong whenever i noticed a mistake that i had made." is the joke of the week!

I have yet to see any apology or even a comment on your obvious deception.

If you are interested, here is NASA's original in full resolution (2897×3000): Saturn Apollo Program: NASA ID: 6900937 (https://images-assets.nasa.gov/image/6900937/6900937~orig.jpg)

And it was "Photoshopped" apparently by adding a bit on the left, including the earth, from the Apollo 8 "EarthRise - as08-14-2383".

But here you are using a known "Photoshopped" photo, that did not come from NASA's image library in another attempt to prove NASA's dishonesty!

In the city of Tula, during excavations, the use of nuclear weapons 200 years ago was also fully confirmed (this is confirmed by laboratory tests for the presence of a radioactive trace corresponding to a nuclear explosion). Yes and more. Many literary works describe nuclear war. Which was before the moon fell, and after this disaster. Read the writers of the classics, it is directly written there about the fall of the moon and two nuclear wars. So dear ones. The second nuclear war in which attacks were launched on Tula and Moscow was already after the moon Fata fell. And most importantly, these attacks were delivered from near-Earth orbit! This can be seen from the official documentary evidence of the witnesses who sent reports on nuclear attacks to higher authorities.
So the rockets really fly in space, and you all argue whether the person was on the moon. Believe me, I don’t care whether a person was on the moon or not, if they hide from us that people have been flying into space for 1000 years! And then draw your own conclusions.

Chick pajamas, there is only one Bart Sibrel video, anyone needs to see. Let's just say the video I'm referring to, is "hard hitting." It's the video where Buzz Aldrin delivers one of the most satisfying "punch lines" you will ever see, and Bart opens his big mouth for a "knuckle sandwich." 

The title of the video, "A funny thing happened on the way to the moon", has a typo, it's missing a letter. The letter "R" which belongs between the two letter "oo"s in the word, "moon", and refers to Bart Sibrel himself.

I didn't think you could travel further backwards with your arguments, chick pajamas, but then you link in Bart Sibrel's abysmal 2001 conspiracy flick disaster, and I realise I was wrong.

Are you about to tell us all how moonlight is colder than moonshade?

But!

A Funny Shadow Happened to Bart Sibrel's Honesty by Peter Poop

And:
Quote from: IMDb User Reviews
Highly misleading (https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0446557/reviews)
Writer/Director Bart Sibrel bases his work here around a can of film that he says was mistakenly sent to him by NASA.
He says it shows the astronauts faking the television footage of their trip to the moon by employing camera tricks. The astronauts were in low Earth orbit all the time, and editors on the ground composed this raw footage into just a few seconds of finished film.

Unfortunately Sibrel's research is so slipshod that he doesn't realize his "backstage" footage is really taken in large part from the 30-minute live telecast (also on that reel) that was seen by millions, not hidden away in NASA vaults as he implies. And we have to wonder why Sibrel puts his own conspiratorial narration over the astronauts' audio in the footage, because hearing the astronauts in their own words clearly spells out that the astronauts were just testing the camera, not faking footage.

Finally, anyone can see the raw footage for themselves without having to buy Sibrel's hacked-up version of it. (He shows you more of the Zapruder film of JFK's assassination than of his "smoking gun".) Sibrel thinks he's the only one who's seen it. What's more revealing is the clips from that raw footage that Sibrel chose NOT to use, such as those clearly showing the appropriately distant Earth being eclipsed by the window frames and so forth, destroying his claim that mattes and transparencies were placed in the spacecraft windows to create the illusion of a faraway Earth.

As with most films of this type, Sibrel relies on innuendo, inexpert assumption, misleading commentary, and selective quotation to manipulate the viewer into accepting a conclusion for which there is not a shred of actual evidence.
Apart from Bart Sibrel's dishonesty/incompetence (you decide!) note that he bases some of his evidence on the astronauts being in LEO but you, Mr Cikljamas, claim that "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum" so which is it?

Are you wrong about "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum" or is Bart Sibrel wrong about Apollo 11 video being filmed in LEO?

Of course I'll take the obvious answer. Both you and Sibrel are wrong.

You need to show that these people had electric turbines.
I understand the physics of redirecting airflow, but that clearly wasn't what was happening on that boat.
That boat had a prop sail and an electric motor underwater.

Regardless, it still makes loads more sense to just use the turbine to push and to forget about the sail.

Now, let's get back to my midget-soldier midget project.

(https://i.postimg.cc/3xgxzVDz/RUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKET.jpg)

The GAU-8 itself weighs 620 pounds (280 kg), but the complete weapon, with feed system and drum, weighs 4,029 pounds (1,828 kg) with a maximum ammunition load.

980 N force is needed for lifting 100 kg.
980 * 18,28 = 17,91 kN

If we replaced "SKHAS Ultra" Russian machine gun with GAU-8 Avenger, then we get 2,5 times more force than needed for lifting off our midget soldier and/on his "rocket" (GAU-8 Avanger)...

Now, all you have to do is to jump on your GAU-8 Avanger "rocket" and demonstrate to us, how you can EASILY harness GAU-8 power as your flying broom(stick).

Only beware of such unwanted (unexpected) consequences :

Now, two interesting questions for Rabinoz and Jack Black :

Q1 : Why would GAU-8 Recoil Flying Broom(stick) "fly" in a vacuum much better than a rocket, (at least IN PRICIPLE)???
Q2 : Why our midget soldier wouldn't manage to fly harnessing GAU-8 Avanger's Recoil Power, turning it into An Effective Flying Broom(stick), here on Earth???

If you asked yourself why i added (at the end of the first question) words in brackets ("at least IN PRINCIPLE"), then the following passage you can use as an explanation (that is to say : the following words will serve as an explanation as to why GAU-8 Avenger will "fly" better in a vacuum than a rocket ONLY IN PRINCIPLE, NOT IN PRACTICE) :

NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations - imagine that "recoil power" alone would not allow a given mass of rocket exhaust to lift a 100.000kg vessel from the ground - let alone propel it at supersonic speeds.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

Congratulations JackBlack you are finally caught. I understand when you are trying to protect the globe, since all that we see is most like this theory. You sometimes even very plausibly explain about a certain gravity, which is completely different. But stoop to frank untruth. Saying that in the experiment with a direct sail there was also an underwater screw ... Obviously too much. The video not only explains the principle of operation of sailing ships of antiquity, but also physically shows how it works! Don’t you think that if you just say that it’s a lie, then everyone will believe you? Many will want to check and figure it out themselves. And they will come to the conclusion that ships in ancient times really flew, and only after the moon Fata fell to the earth. And the earth lost a part of the atmosphere, almost all the flying ships remaining from that time had to use rivers and seas for movement. And those technologies that had to be rebuilt under new conditions. Remember the ship Leliofan, tell me how could it be built at all in those days when there were still no current technologies? The Titanic and the first airships, this is the experience of unsuccessfully using the remaining things after the disaster (since the conditions on the earth were changed). As I understand it, it's hard for JackBlack to recognize the fact that people have been flying into space for a long time. I noticed one thing on this site, all the ideas that freethinkers are trying to promote are connected here in honey. Such an impression that someone is disadvantageous to develop a different view of our world. I can even tell who it is beneficial. The English trade association, which has now developed into some kind of all-controlling body. She subjugated all parts of the world. And which is controlled by the same measureless koshchei (gray).
I think that people have never been to the Moon of the Month, after the fall of the second moon of Fata. And this performance was played to hide the real history of the earth. And the fact that people already 1000 years ago flew to other planets of our solar system.

I still don't know what you mean by a "direct sail."

A direct sail is a straight sail. And not oblique, as they do now. Here is a video in which everything is explained.

Thank you for defining "direct sail." I don't think that's what it's normally called in English, but no matter. I have not watched your video because, well, I have no interest in sitting through hours of nonsense video, but more importantly, because the image is in Russian, which I do not speak.

For the rest of it, you are making up such wild fantasy that you should be writing sci-fi for a living. If electric turbines and nuclear weapons had existed 500 years ago there would be abundant evidence of it, and there is not. The things you claim have been proven, have actually been thoroughly debunked, such as your claim of a nuclear explosion before the modern age of nuclear weapons. Your appeal to old histories is long discredited, being based on such vague references that they can easily be interpreted as meaning anything at all.

As Jack pointed out, if you have a turbine, you point it backwards for maximum thrust. You don't point it forward at a sail. Look at jet planes today: Turbine engines pointed toward the rear, to push the plane forward. Or look at a jet-ski: An underwater turbine pointed toward the rear to push the jet-ski forward.

Everything you write is complete and total nonsense.

But I give you credit for imagination, and if you ever publish a science fiction novel in English, post a link to it in the Kindle store and I will buy it. I think it would be really good.

No, it is a rational conclusion based upon the evidence.
The way the sail of the toy boat moves and interacts with the wind makes it quite clear that it is not being propelled by that.
When it goes sideways from the wind the wind goes to blow it over, making it lean quite a bit sideways. Then when it goes into the wind the wind is clearly pushing the sails back.
There is also absolutely no indication of any fan or turbine on it.
So no thanks, I will accept the simple option.

When it goes sideways from the wind the wind goes to blow it over, making it lean quite a bit sideways. Then when it goes into the wind the wind is clearly pushing the sails back.
There is also absolutely no indication of any fan or turbine on it.
So no thanks, I will accept the simple option.

Be honest what you need proofs still? It is model which shows the principle. I said that the ships did not float earlier, and flew. And they did not need screws. The atmosphere was four times more dense than now. And the direct sail worked regularly. They still some time were tried to be used at the sea, not replaced with slanting yet. And in video it is visible that the vetilyator blows on a sail and there is no underwater screw. It just now was necessary to construct screws under water.
So after all - what benefit that that to deny everything? The logic does not work here.

I still don't know what you mean by a "direct sail."

A direct sail is a straight sail. And not oblique, as they do now. Here is a video in which everything is explained.

Thank you for defining "direct sail." I don't think that's what it's normally called in English, but no matter. I have not watched your video because, well, I have no interest in sitting through hours of nonsense video, but more importantly, because the image is in Russian, which I do not speak.

For the rest of it, you are making up such wild fantasy that you should be writing sci-fi for a living. If electric turbines and nuclear weapons had existed 500 years ago there would be abundant evidence of it, and there is not. The things you claim have been proven, have actually been thoroughly debunked, such as your claim of a nuclear explosion before the modern age of nuclear weapons. Your appeal to old histories is long discredited, being based on such vague references that they can easily be interpreted as meaning anything at all.

As Jack pointed out, if you have a turbine, you point it backwards for maximum thrust. You don't point it forward at a sail. Look at jet planes today: Turbine engines pointed toward the rear, to push the plane forward. Or look at a jet-ski: An underwater turbine pointed toward the rear to push the jet-ski forward.

Everything you write is complete and total nonsense.

But I give you credit for imagination, and if you ever publish a science fiction novel in English, post a link to it in the Kindle store and I will buy it. I think it would be really good.

I will not be able to meet your desire. And what I opisovat has Etruscan roots. And everything is written on Old Russian - it is not translated into English at all. As it is written images, but not words.
At most that I can allow to read it in Russian. It is full history of people from creation of the world and to today. And it is a real story, but not a fantasy. Here you sort a complete nonsense, without thinking that the world not such. It is not a sphere and not the plane. You do not understand as everything is presented - without understanding work of the 5th measurement.

Be honest what you need proofs still?
Proof that the sailboat is actually being propelled by a fan when there is absolutely no indication of that, where a start would be taking the model out of the water to show it doesn't have a screw and placing something in front of the fan to see it get blown as the fan is turned on and off.

And then the far more important part is proof that it is historically accurate.
i.e. proof that the old/ancient ships also had these fans and weren't just sails.

If you want to assert they were flying through the air, then that as well.

If you want to assert that the sail is magically better than just using the turbine, evidence for that as well, an explanation of how that works.

So after all - what benefit that that to deny everything? The logic does not work here.
That's right. What benefit is there to deny how sailings ships actually worked, using the wind to push on them?
There is none.

It is not always possible to be certain with any given statement whether you are trying to say something which is complete and utter nonsense, or whether your Russian-to-English translator is taking something sensible and turning it into gibberish.

Are we really going to go over all of that again? I've already told you I have no arguments. All the evidence seems to point to a round Earth and until that changes I have no arguments or "reasons" to offer. Heavenly Breeze promotes a position that I do have arguments against, so I offer them. Silk Pajamas, who, BTW, is a round-Earther, and not a flat-Earther, also promotes ideas that I can make cogent arguments against. And therein lies the difference.

Also, these two members are presenting views that have nothing whatsoever to do with the shape of the Earth. Ancient turbine-powered sailboats, I mean, whaaa? And pi being wrong as C/D? What do either of those things have to do with FET? Of course, that doesn't mean they shouldn't post. But it does mean that they are raising issues I am comfortable arguing about.

I cannot satisfy your demand for "reasons" because even if I thought your request was legitimate, I have no "reasons."

I think you're just upset because I don't fit into any of your simple categories. Flat-Earthers are "supposed" to deny science and you're angry that I don't. Again, please note that Silk Pajamas is a round-Earther who does not fit into the normal round-Earth category, since he denies much of science but believes the Earth is (roughly) a ball.

Trying to fit people into categories is a fool's errand. We're all individuals and we defy categorization. Many flat-Earthers deny science, but not all flat-Earthers deny science, and not everyone who denies science is a flat-Earther.

We have been over this before.
You do deny science, but like most science deniers you just cherry pick what bit of science you deny.
Like all FEers you deny the science that shows Earth to be round, while even admitting that it does.

What makes you different from most FEers is that you don't claim to have any evidence that Earth is flat and even accept that all the evidence shows that is round. So you are choosing to ignore the evidence and pretend Earth is flat.

but not all flat-Earthers deny science, and not everyone who denies science is a flat-Earther.
In order for them to not deny science, they would need to accept Earth is round.
Please show me a flat Earther that accepts that Earth is round rather than flat.

a round-Earther who does not fit into the normal round-Earth category
There is no "normal" RE category.
It is the default for the vast majority of people and you have a wide variety of people.

FEers are grouped together based upon the rejection of science regarding the shape of Earth. They can be further grouped based upon what other things they believe.
REers are grouped together pretty much based upon them not being FEers.

Not yet but it might not fit with his current Geocentric Globe Hypothesis, probably following Tycho Brahe's modified Geocentric Solar System.

He seems to rely a lot on Robert Sungenis's work.
Robert Sungenis wrote quite a good anti-flat earth book Flat Earth/Flat Wrong: An Historical, Biblical & Scientific Analysis.
But when gets onto Geocentricity his physics etc seem very lacking. This site is worth a look: Welcome to GeocentrismDebunked.org (https://www.geocentrismdebunked.org/robert-sungenis-incompetent-physics/).

The closest you get to that is a glider.

Use the law of physics.
Yes, try using them, they don't support what you claim.

A sailboat in air makes no sense. It would basically be a glorified balloon or blimp.
All the sails would do is increase the surface area. It would provide no control.
The key reasoning sailing on water works is the divide between the water and the air.
You can have the rudder in the water, with the sails in the air and use that to control your direction.

Hey Silhouette, what's up? Don't be lazy, if you chose to go through 15 pages of this thread you could learn something useful...

Now, let's see once more how your friend Macarios responded to my ZIGZAG argument :

GEOCENTRIC SCENARIO (according to Macarios) :

If Space is orbiting Earth then we calculate relative to Earth:
Sun moves (2*Pi*149.6e6)/24 = 39 165 188.4 km/h
Moon moves (2*Pi*384 400)/24 - 3679.5 = 96 956.2 km/h
Now:
Closer observer: Sun ARCTAN(39165188.4 / 1496e6) = 14.67 degrees per hour ; Moon ARCTAN(96956.2 / 381800) = 14.245 degrees per hour ; difference 0.425
Farther observer: Sun ARCTAN(39165188.4 / 1496e6) = 14.67 degrees per hour ; Moon ARCTAN(96956.2 / 387000) = 14.065 degrees per hour ; difference 0.605
Angular speed difference between observers 0.18 degrees per hour.

HELIOCENTRIC SCENARIO (according to Macarios) :

If Earth is orbiting Sun, then we calculate relative to Sun:
Earth moves (2*Pi*149.6e6)/(365.25*24) = 107 232.5 km/h
Moon moves 107 232.5 ± (2*Pi*384 400)/(27.35*24) = 107 232.5 ± 3679.5 km/h
During solar eclipse it is minus, so we have 97 553 km/h.
Two observers in polar circle, one at closer end and another at farther end will travel 107 232.5 ± (2*Pi*2600)/24 = 107 232.5 ± 681 km/h
Closer observer 106 551.5 km/h, farther observer 107 913.5 km/h.
Now:
Closer observer: 106 551.5 - 97 553 = 8998.5 km/h ; ARCTAN(8998.5/381800) = 1.35 degrees per hour.
Farther observer: 107 913.5 - 97 553 = 10 360.5 km/h ; ARCTAN(10360.5/387000) = 1.53 degrees per hour
Angular speed difference between observers 0.18 degrees per hour.

Now if you change his number 681 km/h (which he got by dividing circumference of Arctic circle by 24 hours) with 434 km/h (which i got by dividing diameter of Arctic circle by 12 hours AND THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO SO TO COMPLY WITH THE CORE OF MY ZIGZAG ARGUMENT) then you get even worse (for you) result (greater discrepancy = smaller number for HC scenario) than i got in the following calculation :

HELIOCENTRIC SCENARIO :

3500 km (diameter of the Moon)
434 km (the distance which an observer at the Arctic circle crosses in one hour (46,8*111km = 5194,8 km/12 = 432,9)
5200 km (the diameter of the Arctic circle)

CLOSER OBSERVER : 3500-434 = 3066 km/h
FARTHER OBSERVER : 3500+434 = 3934 km/h

CLOSER OBSERVER = 3066/380 000 = 0,00806 (ctg) = 0,462
FARTHER OBSERVER = 3934/385 200 = 0,01021 (ctg) = 0,5851

THE DIFFERENCE = 0,123

So, what do you have to say on this???

Hey Silhouette, what's up? Don't be lazy, if you chose to go through 15 pages of this thread you could learn something useful...
Only that you have no rational response to the very real fact that rockets do work in a vacuum.

Unless you have an actual answer to my question?
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Again, the only rational answer is that the rocket is the other body with the rocket pushing the gas backwards while the gas pushes the rocket forwards. That means that rockets do work in a vacuum.

Now, let's see once more how your friend Macarios responded to my ZIGZAG argument :
Let's not. It has already been covered in plenty of other threads, with you completley unable to justify it and instead repeating the same mistakes again and again.
The zig-zag argument, when done honestly and correctly, only indicates that the celestial objects are far away.
It tells you nothing about which is moving as all that matters is the relative motion which is the same regardless of if Earth is stationary with the moon orbiting, the Earth is rotating with the moon stationary, or the Earth is rotating with the moon orbiting.
I showed mathematically that the 2 situations are equivalent and you had no response.

Should i point out AGAIN why yours math is wrong (invalid in relation to reality) :

When we change your number 681 km/h (which he got by dividing circumference of Arctic circle by 24 hours) with 434 km/h (which i got by dividing diameter of Arctic circle by 12 hours AND THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO SO TO COMPLY WITH THE CORE OF MY ZIGZAG ARGUMENT) then you get CORRECT result!!!

And you have to change that number 681 km with 434 km because using the second number (434 km) is geometrically CORRECT choice, and using the first number (681 km) is geometrically WRONG choice which renders your math INVALID!!!

<< I can't be bothered wasting time playing tin-soldiers with one who use fake photos in videos! >>
NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations -
Except that your "intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations" explanation is total crap! The "kinetic energy" of the bullet has nothing to do with the case!

Now go back and read all that you've been told about momentum in earlier posts.
Assuming the bullet has a mass of 4 g, a muzzle velocity of 948 m/s and quoted  energy of 1,797 J
the momentum of the bullet leaving the barrel is 0.004 × 948 = 3.97 kg.m/s.
So, if the M16 has a mass of 4 kg it should recoil with a velocity of 3.97/4 or near enough to 1 m/s.

Quote from: cikljamas
imagine that "recoil power" alone would not allow a given mass of rocket exhaust to lift a 100.000kg vessel from the ground - let alone propel it at supersonic speeds.
What on earth are you raving on about? You "recoil power" has nothing to do with the case.

The thrust of a rocket engine (a force) is given by the time rate of change of momentum of the exhaust gasses - from Newton's 2nd and 3rd laws.

Surely you can work it out from there!

Quote from: cikljamas
To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

What are your Mass A and Mass B?
At a guess the values they might be reasonable if Mass A were fuel (LH2 or RP1) and Mass B were oxidiser (LOX).

For your information the amount of fuel needed change the velocity of a rocket by a given amount is still estimated from: Tsiolkovsky rocket equation (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation).

That was developed, not by NASA, the Germans of Robert Goddard but by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky: Russian Father of Rocketry (https://www.space.com/19994-konstantin-tsiolkovsky.html) way back in 1897!

And Konstantin Tsiolkovsky used Newton's 2nd and 3rd laws just as everybody does today!

Yes, I have noticed that reply, with you still avoid the question.

No where in that post do you even attempt to address it.
Instead you appeal to yet another strawman, which has also already been refuted.
my response to you and to Macarios is right before your long nose Pinocchio!!!
Calling me a liar wont help your case.

Should i point out AGAIN why yours math is wrong (invalid in relation to reality) :
Go ahead, go back to the thread where I provided the math based upon the angles to show that they would be identical.

When we change your number
I didn't use numbers.
I used variables based upon the angles involved, showing that all that is important is the relative angular velocity of the moon, regardless of which is moving.
You would need to provide a problem with that derivation showing that you get the same result.
If you can't you have no grounds to stand upon.

Here is where I provided it:
https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=70921.msg1917997#msg1917997

You haven't even tried to refute this math, likely because you know you can't.


Again, if you want to discuss your repeatedly refuted zig-zag BS go back to those threads.

Here is where you can try to defend your claims regarding rockets.
Now again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

If you wish to claim that rockets do not work in a vacuum you need to be able to answer this.
Avoiding it is as good as admitting that rockets do work in space, that you know this and that you are lying to everyone.

Now, two interesting questions for Rabinoz and Jack Black :

Q1 : Why would GAU-8 Recoil Flying Broom(stick) "fly" in a vacuum much better than a rocket, (at least IN PRICIPLE)???
Q2 : Why our midget soldier wouldn't manage to fly harnessing GAU-8 Avanger's Recoil Power, turning it into An Effective Flying Broom(stick), here on Earth???

If you asked yourself why i added (at the end of the first question) words in brackets ("at least IN PRINCIPLE"), then the following passage you can use as an explanation (that is to say : the following words will serve as an explanation as to why GAU-8 Avenger will "fly" better in a vacuum than a rocket ONLY IN PRINCIPLE, NOT IN PRACTICE) :

NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations - imagine that "recoil power" alone would not allow a given mass of rocket exhaust to lift a 100.000kg vessel from the ground - let alone propel it at supersonic speeds.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

There are questions that you are trying to blur in this post.
Those questions reveal the nature of your explanation.

1. Speed of the rocket is 8 km/s relative to what? Nearby asteroid?
2. Speed of the exhaust gas is 8 km/s relative to what? The rocket itself?

3. Which action force (by what) is accelerating the mass of the gas to those 8 km/s?
4. On what the mass of the gas exerts the reaction force?

Answers:
1. Yes, the rocket's 8 km/s is the realtive speed of the rocket relative to nearby dust speck or asteroid or gas cloud.
2. Yes, the gas' 8 km/s is the speed of the gas relative to the rocket itself and as rocket accelerates the gas speed changes relative to the nearby object.

3. No mass can accelerate without force, the mass of the gas to reach those 8 km/s receives the action force from the rocket.
4. Reaction force from the gas can not act on something else, only back on the rocket.

So, it still shows that rocket pushes itself off the exhaust gasses.

About your "machine gun would accelerate faster":
Maybe, but at what cost?
How much is the ammunition, and how much is the rocket fuel, per pound?
And how much of each mass gets propelled to do the work?

Bear in mind that for the year 2020 the army will receive $718 billion, and NASA $21.5 billion.
Even if it was the other way around, it would still be cheaper to use rocket fuel.
And easier to calculate.

On the other hand, if you are trying to prove that there is no recoil (?),
then you are trying to say that rockets "don't work in the atmosphere either".
And that will be a little harder to prove, since we all saw those firework rockets in action.

Recoil force explanation for how rockets fly (in a vacuum) is UTTER NONSENSE AND ANOTHER NASA'S CON OF GIGANTIC PROPORTIONS, and i have proven my point regarding this issue beyond reasonable doubt. The best indication of validity of my numerous arguments (presented throughout this whole thread) is your inability to respond sanely and DIRECTLY to any of my arguments...Let's list a few of them here :

1. Free expansion argument + Thermodynamics :

In memory and honor of Bill Kaysing (or perhaps we'd better just say in honor of good sense) let's present the science here that shames the Wernher von Brauns of our world into coughing up the truth: their rocket programs are full of hot air. - hp]

After seeing the evidence of fakery in NASA pictures and videos in this forum I decided to investigate the theoretical basis of rockets in space. What I found on the Internet were mainly tricks, frauds and sleights of hand, name-calling and attacks used to confuse the issue and hide the facts. Bypassing all of that and doing original research I have come to the conclusion that rockets cannot function in space according the descriptions/formulas used by NASA and related parties.

With neither theory on its side nor reliable, verifiable, repeatable scientific experiments on its side the idea of rocket thrust in my estimation remains a fiction presented to the world as an achievement: a modern day Marco Polo story.

I will try to present my findings with a minimum of math and formulae as these are often used to drawn us into traps, causing us to argue the minutiae of red herrings or chase ghosts. These ruses remind me of the joke about on which side of the barn roof the rooster’s egg will fall. How often do people forget that rooster’s don’t lay eggs?

There are 4 major ideas on presented on the Internet, including NASA web sites, as to how rockets generate thrust in space
1. Newton’s 3rd Law : for every force there is an equal and opposite
2. Newtons’s 2nd Law : Force = Mass x Acceleration
3. Conservation of Momentum
4. The use of a specialized nozzle to accelerate the gas inside the ship, concentrate and aim the gas jet

I will address each of these issues showing why they are invalid. In addition I will review the results (and lack thereof) of the founders of space rocketry Hermann Oberth (who designed most of the rocket science for the Fritz Lang film Woman in the Moon), Goddard, who was the first to claim an experimental result proving vacuum thrust and Clarke, a champion of Newton’s 3rd law.

There’s obviously too much to cover in one post so I’ll start by addressing the most popular response to those who question how rockets operate in the vacuum of space: Newton’s 3rd Law, that is to say that a rocket when it exhausts propellant will be pushed in the opposite direction.

The problem with applying Newton’s 3rd is that the rocket’s propellant does not generate force in a vacuum according to the laws of physics and chemistry. If the force of the propellant is 0 then Newton’s 3rd states that
Force on Rocket=-Force of Gas.
If Force of Gas = 0 the rocket does not move.

Why doesn’t the propellant generate any force, it's expanding, right?
There is something known as “Free Expansion” or the “Joule-Thomson” effect, named after James Prescott Joule and J.J. Thompson two of the founders of the field of Physical Chemistry.
http://www.etomica.org/app/modules/sites/JouleThomson/Background2.html
Free Expansion states that when a pressurized gas is exposed to a vacuum the gas expanding into the vacuum without any work being done. The gas is not “pulled” or “sucked” into the vacuum nor is it “pushed” out of the high-pressure container. In other words no work is done, no heat or energy is lost.
This result has been experimentally verified numerous times since its discovery in the 1850’s.
[for example a paper in the Journal of Physical Chemistry from 1902: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/j150043a002]

As if Free Expansion wasn’t enough to invalidate the theory of rockets producing a force in a vacuum there is also a result from thermodynamics:
Work = Pressure x Change_in_Volume
that is easily found searching for “W=PV”
http://lsc.ucdavis.edu/~ahart/Alicia2B/Thermo.pdf
If the pressure of a system is 0 then the work done by the expanding gas into that system is 0. Gas expanding in a vacuum doing no work agrees with Free Expansion. This can also be understood as the gas meets no resistance as it exits into the vacuum and thus transfers neither heat nor energy to its surroundings. If the gas loses neither heat nor energy then it has done no work.

At this point we have a rocket with high-pressure gas generated from liquid fuel that can release the gas into a vacuum but has no way to produce a force while doing so. As soon as the nozzle is opened the gasses escape without doing any work. Therefore the 3rd Law is rendered useless.

As it turns out NASA does not fall into the 3rd Law trap (nor does it go around correcting all the sites who do) instead claiming that thrust of a space rocket is generated using what I call The Wrong Formula, an egregious farce of Newton's 2nd law which I will address in a later next post.

To recap: Newton’s 3rd Law, the number one response on the Internet to how a rocket generates thrust in space, is invalid in this context. NASA itself avoids using Newton’s 3rd Law as the reason why their rockets work so well in space choosing to use Newton’s 2nd Law instead. I will show in a later post why NASA’s use the 2nd Law is equally invalid and in fact a hideous misrepresentation of the laws of physics that would give a freshman college student a failing grade yet earns NASA an "A" thanks to its pretty pictures, dramatic story lines, and gutsy champions, the astronauts.[/i]

A COMMON OBJECTION :

Quote
On Earth, shooting something causes friction with the thing being shot. Least of all, air all around us. The shooter will be effected by the action of shooting. However, in a vacuum, there being no friction with anything, shooting something just wastes that thing and sends it soaring uselessly into the void.

But if that's true, then you're saying a gun (by a magic gunman and gun that can exist and fire in a perfect vacuum) would not be pushed back by the bullet, it would just eject the bullet without an effect on the gun or the arm of the gunman? Simply because of a lack of air pressure and friction and so on?

So there is no jet propulsion that would work because any explosive reaction that could even occur in space would be wasted in it completely.

THE PROPER ANSWER TO OBJECTION ABOVE :

Short answer: Yes a gun recoils in space. No, the analogy does not apply to rockets.

Longer version: Shooting a gun in space would happen theoretically as follows: pressurized gas accelerates the bullet through the barrel until the bullet leaves the muzzle. At that point the gas that was pushing the bullet escapes without doing any more work i.e. via free expansion. The energy of the bullet (its momentum) travels with the bullet and the gun recoils by principle of conservation of momentum.

The gun analogy does not apply to a NASA-type space rocket as their pressurized gas escapes without doing any work at all. A NASA rocket is a gun without a bullet.

AN EXCERPT FROM ONE OTHER COMMENT POSTED WITHIN THE SAME THREAD :

Quote
I think I see what you mean. To try to put this in unnecessarily simple layman's terms: because the vacuum is just complete void, it can freely take on just about an infinite amount of anything, at any rate, without actually anything significant happening. Hence, we hold on to the idea that mass exiting a craft into a vacuum would actually cause any motion in the craft only because we are used to such behavior in a non-vacuum.

THE RESPOND TO THE COMMENT ABOVE :

You are correct, in addition to the gas leaving the ship for "free" (doing no work, exerting no force) the change in the mass of the rocket due to the escaped gas has nothing to do with rocket propulsion. In order for "lost mass" to exert force the ship MUST be accelerating. The formula is:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

If Acceleration is 0 then force is 0 no matter what the mass or how it is changes over time.

Put another way, if the force of the gas (force = 0) exiting the ship didn't cause the ship to move (the ship isn't accelerating) due to free expansion then looking at the problem from the perspective of the mass of the gas leaving the ship won't magically cause the ship to move all of a sudden.

NASA tries to pull this nonsense as well as some other ridiculous fake science stunts to make it seem like their rockets have a chance to function in a vacuum.

2. Escape velocity problem :

So, how many more times are you going to put forward this kind of stupid questions : why is that problem, so what is the importance of this, what is the importance of that? What a funny parrots you are...

Rabinoz, what is the importance of this :

Tom Bishop says :

It clearly says the following on NASA's website.

https://history.nasa.gov/SP-368/s1ch2.htm

"The crew checked out the spacecraft, and, after approximately three hours in Earth orbit, the Saturn IV-B stage was fired for approximately five minutes to accelerate the spacecraft to an Earth-gravity escape velocity of 40 233 km/hr (25 000 mph) to begin its 370 149 km (230 000 mile) coast to the moon. Following the translunar injection maneuver, the Apollo spacecraft was separated from the Saturn IV-B stage."

https://images.nasa.gov/details-0100983.html

"The S-IVB restarted to speed the Apollo spacecraft to escape velocity injecting it and the astronauts into a moon trajectory."

https://www.nasa.gov/feature/50-years-ago-the-journey-to-the-moon-begins

"Two hours and 44 minutes after liftoff, the third stage engine ignited for the six-minute TLI burn, increasing the spacecraft’s velocity to more than 24,000 miles per hour, enough to escape Earth’s gravity."

Apollo 15 Flight Journal https://history.nasa.gov/afj/ap15fj/03tde.html

The stack is 40 metres long and 6.6 metres at its widest, weighing over 65 metric tonnes; not an insubstantial load to have propelled away from Earth at escape velocity.

Popular mechanics:

Instead, the remaining structure continued to orbit Earth until a "go/no-go" decision was made by Mission Control in Houston. At that time, the third-stage rocket, technically known as an S-IVB, reignited and achieved "translunar injection." Once escape velocity, the speed needed to overcome Earth's gravity, or 24,500 mph, was achieved, the S-IVB was discarded as well.

...

They are clearly claiming to reach escape velocity of the Earth's gravity to inject into a trans lunar orbit. In order to reach escape velocity, it must be done in relation to the center of the earth.

Escape Velocity has only to do with the speed away from the center of the earth, not any particular method of application.

It is just how we are taught about Escape Velocity. Look at this page from Georgia State:

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/vesc.html

(https://i.imgur.com/WmwN1tj.png)

Disregarding any and all applications which any space agency claims to use, how would you describe this image if you had to put it into a sentence?

One way to phrase it is that the object needs to go straight up, or away from the earth, at 7 miles per second. It is simply what needs to be done. A description of Escape Velocity as commonly taught and nothing more. I can change the "straight up" in the sentence to "away from the earth" if it makes it more clear.

3. DON'T YOU SEE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM :

There is a synergy (combined deadly effects (inconsistencies)) of three HUGE problems here :

1. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)!

2. As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

3. To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

4. Since JackBlack was unable to answer this question, maybe you will give it a try :

Macarios ALSO showed mathematically that the 2 situations are equivalent and my response to you and to Macarios is right before your long nose Pinocchio!!!

Should i point out AGAIN why yours math is wrong (invalid in relation to reality) :

When we change your number 681 km/h (which he got by dividing circumference of Arctic circle by 24 hours) with 434 km/h (which i got by dividing diameter of Arctic circle by 12 hours AND THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO SO TO COMPLY WITH THE CORE OF MY ZIGZAG ARGUMENT) then you get CORRECT result!!!

And you have to change that number 681 km with 434 km because using the second number (434 km) is geometrically CORRECT choice, and using the first number (681 km) is geometrically WRONG choice which renders your math INVALID!!!

So, the question is this :

Is it geometrically justified to use 681 km or 434 km when calculating the amount of displacement of two observers at two opposite edges of the Arctic circle during one hour long Midnight Arctic Solar Eclipse within HC scenario???

If you think you can justifiably pick out 681 km as the correct number then care to show us a diagram which illustrates validity of your 681 km choice!!!

This is my illustration :

No you haven't.
You have repeatedly asserted your point without any justification at all and fled from questions which easily show you are wrong.

The best indication of validity of my numerous arguments (presented throughout this whole thread) is your inability to respond sanely and DIRECTLY to any of my arguments
You mean like how you have repeatedly failed to answer a very simple question and instead just brought up pile after pile of nonsense?

Again, if you wish to claim rockets can't work in a vacuum, you need to answer this simple question:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Until you do, anything else you bring up is just a distraction.

1. Free expansion argument + Thermodynamics :
Does not apply.
The free expansion you are thinking of is when you have a rigid container with a partition dividing it into 2 sections and then remove the partition.
Before the expansion, you have the gas contained in a small portion, with an overall velocity of 0 relative to the container.
After the expansion, you have the gas contained in the overall container, but still with an overall velocity of 0 relative to the container.
There is no net change in velocity of the gas.
It is a closed system.
It is like stretching out your arm.

From a simple view it is incapable of applying a force on its surroundings, or the container itself, because the force on one side of the container will be balanced by the force on the other side of the container.

This is nothing like a rocket.
With a rocket, it isn't a single container. Instead you have the rocket effectively being one container, which is simply releasing the gas into the surroundings.
Before the "expansion" the gas is at a velocity of 0, and inside the rocket.
After the expansion the gas it at a much greater velocity, several km/s, and outside the rocket.
This is not a closed system.

The 2 situations are nothing alike.

And more importantly, free expansion does not require a vacuum.
Instead, all it requires is 2 chambers at different pressure with the divider removed.
If that negated the possibility of rockets working, then it would do always, not just in a vacuum.

The problem with applying Newton’s 3rd is that the rocket’s propellant does not generate force in a vacuum according to the laws of physics and chemistry.
That is a blatant lie.
Remember the second law?
F=m*a, or equivalently, a=F/m
This can also be integrated to give:
v=v0+F/m*t.
The velocity of the gas is initially 0.
After the expansion the velocity of the gas is much higher, several km/s. Lets do an example taking it to be 4 km/s.
This means:
4 km/s=0+F/m*t.
F=4 km/s * m / t
The expansion takes place over some time, so t will be some positive number of seconds.
The gas has a mass, so m will be some positive number of kg, even if it is small.

This means F will be some real, positive number.
That means according to the laws of physics THERE MUST BE A FORCE!
That is what you are repeatedly ignoring.

This means the force on the gas is NOT 0.
That means the force on the rocket is NOT 0.

If you want to claim the force on the gas is 0, you need to prove it, you need to actually address the question I have repeatedly asked and you have avoided like the plague, likely because you know an honest answer destroys your position.

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

If the pressure of a system is 0
Good job showing you don't understand how expansion works.
The pressure starts very much not at 0.
The pressure inside a rocket engine is quite high.
It needs to be to generate the force to expel the gas at such high speed.

As it expands the pressure drops.
The formula you provided only works at constant pressure.

Escape velocity problem
Is once again, NOT A PROBLEM!
Instead it is just you and others like you blatantly ignoring what escape velocity is and how it is achieved.
No matter how much you or others want to pretend that you need to go directly away from the object will remain pure fantasy.

Disregarding any and all applications which any space agency claims to use, how would you describe this image if you had to put it into a sentence?
There is no need to ask that.
It already has a sentence describing it.
You ignoring that sentence and putting extra words it never says doesn't help you. It just how dishonest you are.
There is absolutely nothing in there to indicate you need to go straight up.
Instead it appeals to kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy.

Again, there was another very simple question I asked to show your claim is pure BS.
What do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?

3. DON'T YOU SEE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM :
Yes, you repeatedly lying and avoiding very simple questions.

4. Since JackBlack was unable to answer this question, maybe you will give it a try :
No, I am quite able to do so, and have already addressed that, in the relevant thread.

Like I said, run away back to the zig-zag thread if you want to discuss it.


For this thread you need to answer a very simple question (or 2 if you also want to cling to the nonsense of escape velocity):
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
What do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?

Let's complete your M16 vs rocket comparison:

NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations -
Except that your "intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations" explanation is total crap! The "kinetic energy" of the bullet has nothing to do with the case!

Now go back and read all that you've been told about momentum in earlier posts.
Assuming the bullet has a mass of 4 g, a muzzle velocity of 948 m/s and quoted  energy of 1,797 J
the momentum of the bullet leaving the barrel is 0.004 × 948 = 3.97 kg.m/s.
So, if the M16 has a mass of 4 kg it should recoil with a velocity of 3.97/4 or near enough to 1 m/s.

Quote from: cikljamas
To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s.
No! The escape velocity from Earth is about 11.186 km/s NOT your 8km/s but the orbital velocity at 200 km is 7784 m/s - close to your figure.

But to even get into a 200 km orbit from the ground a rocket must overcome gravity and air-resistance till it leaves the atmosphere.
Without more details that cannot be calculated but to get to LEO requires approximately the equivalent of an extra 2.6 km/s velocity.

So we'll see if your rocket might even get to LEO.

Quote from: cikljamas
This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)
What are your Mass A and Mass B?
At a guess, the values they might be reasonable if Mass A were fuel (LH2 or RP1) and Mass B were oxidiser (LOX).

So let's assume your rocket uses RP1+LOX as fuel and has an engine of equivalent to the SpaceX Merlin 1C engine as used on the very successful Falcon 9.

The amount of fuel needed change the velocity of a rocket by a given "Delta-V" is still estimated from Tsiolkovsky rocket equation (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation) - developed way back in 1897!
So use this to see if your rocket has a chance of doing the job before wasting time over thrust calculations - and it will not do the job!

So here you want to achieve a (https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/28563b5d468baab12a7d33b49cac197c2c1ed885) of 7784 + 2600 = 10,384 m/s.

And the SpaceX Merlin 1C engine has a sea-level specific impulse of 282 seconds, and a vacuum specific impulse of 311 seconds as a compromise we'll use (https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/70c0212f1850950d08b956f2162d6ee289e1de2b) = 300 seconds.

Hence (https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/d47f9dd1e1d977eae9f5a42c3bd89b05d884d74a), the effective exhaust velocity will be 300 x 9.81 = 2943 m/s.

So from the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation the mass ratio will have to be exp((https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/d47f9dd1e1d977eae9f5a42c3bd89b05d884d74a)/(https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/28563b5d468baab12a7d33b49cac197c2c1ed885)) = exp(10,384/2943) = 34.

Your initial mass in 100,000 kg. So starting with that rocket + fuel you need can only get 2935 kg to Low Earth Orbit and you needed 97,065 kg of fuel and oxidiser!

So it's no point doing detailed thrust calculations etc, etc.

Back to the drawing board. You should look what NASA, SpaceX, Ariannespace do and that is use a multistage rocket!

Please, Mr Cikljamas learn a bit about a topic before shooting your mouth off trying to debunk it.

AND desist from your practice of using known "Photoshopped" images to show that NASA uses "Photoshopped" images - that is deception and YOU know it!

Disregarding any and all applications which any space agency claims to use, how would you describe this image if you had to put it into a sentence?

One way to phrase it is that the object needs to go straight up, or away from the earth, at 7 miles per second. It is simply what needs to be done..

Since I know that the rocket does not need to go straight UP I would look further and find the whole diagram as in:

From: CalcTool: Escape velocity Calculator (http://www.calctool.org/CALC/phys/astronomy/escape_velocity)

The escape velocity does not have to be directly away from centre of the earth. It can and usually is a tangential velocity.
And "Note that a powered object may escape the gravity of a body at any velocity desired."

For this thread you need to answer a very simple question (or 2 if you also want to cling to the nonsense of escape velocity):
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
@Jack, if you want to answer your "clever" questions, why don't you answer them yourself?
While we are eagerly waiting for your ingenious answers to your "clever" questions, a quick reminder for those who suffer from a short term memory loss :

1. Here are my two cents about rocket propulsion - a line of reasoning using NASA's own data. As you will notice, I am not even mentioning the question of vacuum - only of ever-decreasing air pressure with increasing altitudes - something I trust we can all agree about.

(https://i.postimg.cc/7L112934/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY.jpg)

Source of graphics used for above diagram:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_engine

NOTE : interesting tidbits from that Wiki article:

"Rockets become progressively more underexpanded as they gain altitude."

and...

"The shape of the plume varies from the design altitude, at high altitude all rockets are grossly under-expanded, and a quite small percentage of exhaust gases actually end up expanding forwards".

2. THE MAGDEBURG HEMISPHERES experiment (1654)

Back in 1654, Otto Von Guericke, the inventor of the air pump (to simulate vacuum on Earth) performed a spectacular experiment. He had 16 horses trying to pull apart (in vain) two empty hemispheres held together only by the force of vacuum:

(https://i.postimg.cc/nVdLLmQP/EXPERIMENT.jpg)

QUOTE - from a scientific CERN article:

"By this experiment he demonstrated that it is impossible to pull the two halves apart against the air pressure, even by using 2 X 8 horses (the counter-pressure by air in the interior of the sphere is missing). During this time, it became clear that we are living on the bottom of a huge ocean of air and that the mass of the atmosphere corresponds to a pressure of about 1kg per cm² or 10 tons on an area of 1m². The reason why we don’t feel anything of this tremendous pressure is simply that there is the same pressure inside our body." http://www.cientificosaficionados.com/libros/CERN/vacio1-CERN.pdf

Indeed, folks: we are living on the bottom of a huge ocean of air - and that is something we all tend to forget. Imagine that: "10 tons on an area of 1m²". Pretty heavy stuff, huh? Draw a big breath of air and you'll feel it! Of course, this air surrounding us (our atmosphere) has a certain density. And so has, for instance, water. And so has vacuum. So let's take a look at this table, at present. I have highlighted in blue the densities which are of interest to us right now:

(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

(Just to put all this into perspective, on the other side of the spectrum we see that a "black hole" - considered by scientists as the highest imaginable pressure known to mankind - is 10 ^+27. In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)

Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me. http://www.septclues.com/SPACE_STATION/RocketExpansionDiagram1.jpg

But the BIG question is: just HOW MUCH power would a rocket lose as it enters into near-vacuum?

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force. (see the above density figures to understand why.)

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

This insurmountable 'little problem' may have been understood back in the heydays of early rocket research - thus paving the way for the ridiculous NASA circus and its clowns to take over and --explore- exploit outer space ... financially.

What do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?

I would like to see a man made object that flies at that speed...lol

Just to put it into broader perspective :

Concorde top speed = 2450 km/h = Mach 2
SR-71 Blackbird top speed = 3530 km/h = Mach 2,9
X-15 top speed = 7350 km/h = Mach 6

Geostationary satellites - ALLEGED speed = 9420 km/h = Mach 7,68
ISS ALLEGED speed = 7,66 km/s = 27576 km/h = Mach 22,5 which is 3,75 times faster than X-15's top speed

Escape Velocity of the Earth = 11,18 km/s = 40248 km/h = Mach 32,8 which is 5,47 times faster than X-15's top speed

Now, how about your 1000 km/s = 3 600 000 km/h = Mach 2938,77 which is 490 times faster than X-15's top speed...

So, Jack what do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?

Or better to ask much cleverer question : How do you think you could ever attain such ludicrous flying speeds for any kind of a man made object???

And there's no need to write 10-18 or 10-24 because it is the difference in pressure or density that matters here, so they are all so close to zero that they might as well be zero.

Quote from: cikljamas

Yes, the BIG question is: just HOW MUCH thrust would a rocket lose as it enters into near-vacuum. And the asswer is NONE!
The rocket's efficiency is at a maximum when the exhaust pressure is equal to the external pressure but the thrust still increases with decreasing external pressure.
Look at the rocket thrust equation again: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1). The thrust continues to increase as the external pressure, po, drops to zero.
In a vacuum more thrust still could be achieved by using a larger bell but the extra mass and diameter set an upper practical limit.

Quote from: cikljamas

If course "honest scientists will deny . . . will deny" such a claim! A vacuum does not " 'suck' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force."
The air flow depends of the difference in pressure not on one being a vacuum! A 'vacuum' has no "magic properties".

There is no "overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself"! That's just rubbish dreamed up by your ignorance.

The fuel flow into the high pressure of the combustion chamber is regulated by the fuel pumps.
And the flow of the gases from the combustion chamber is controlled by the choked converging-diverging (or de Laval) nozzle.
Please learn a little about "rocket science" before trying to debunk them!

There was no "insurmountable 'little problem' . . . . . back in the heydays of early rocket research" - that's all in your mind.
Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, Robert Goddard and the German rocket scientists knew full well that rockets would work well in a vacuum.

Now run off and study up on the properties (or lack thereof) of a vacuum and on how rockets really work.

PS Do you still use photos "Photoshopped" by yourself or others to show that NASA uses "Photoshopped" images?

Post by: JackBlack on August 08, 2019, 05:19:45 AM
@Jack, if you want to answer your "clever" questions, why don't you answer them yourself?
I already have.
The gas and rocket interact with the rocket pushing the gas back and the gas pushing rocket forwards.
That means rockets work in space.

Why do you need to avoid this question so much?

1. Here are my two cents about rocket propulsion - a line of reasoning using NASA's own data.
You mean a baseless extrapolation into fantasy with absolutely nothing to back it up.


I would like to see a man made object that flies at that speed...lol
Again you avoid a very simple question.
A man made object travelling that speed is irrelavent.
The question is what would happen?
According to you it can't possibly be at escape velocity and thus it can't possible leave Earth.

What magic do you propose to keep it at Earth?

So, Jack what do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?
That is quite simple.
It will be in a hyperbolic orbit, leaving the region of Earth's gravitational influence, quite quickly.


Now, care to actually to to honesty address the questions by answering them?

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
I have already provided the rational answer.

The only rational option is to accept the rockets work.
The only other option is to reject physics, by either claiming Newton's third law is garbage and the gas can magically accelerate with a force applied without a corresponding reactionary force, or discarding the second law and claiming the gas can magically accelerate without any force, or discard physics and claim you can magically contain a gas in an open container exposed to vacuum.

Which is it going to be?

And again:
What do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?
Again, the rational option is that it will leave Earth's region of gravitational influence, i.e. be above escape velocity.
The only other option is to reject physics and appeal to some magical force that magically holds it to Earth just because it wasn't going in the right direction.

I am not answering all that in one go but first the total misoperation in you "density table". But why on earth do you use those funny cgs units and not SI units?

First of all your "density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> BLACK HOLES" is total garbage!
"Density differences" are quite irrelevant anyway. It is only "pressure differences" that matter though for gasses they are related.

And it appears that you missed out on arithmetic in school because the difference between two numbers say A and B is A - B and NOT A/B.

It appears that you do not know even the simplest rules of arithmetic!
So the difference between (air density) and the (density of free space)  is simply only 10-3 - 10-24 = 10-3 gm/cm3.


As far as a rocket's performance goes or the stresses involved in pressurising a crew habitat is make little difference if the pressure outside is one hundredth or one trillionth of normal atmospheric pressure.

And it makes you claim "In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)" totally ludicrous!

But the density gap/difference between AIR vs VACUUM is just 1 while the density gap/difference between "BLACK HOLES" vs WATER is 1027 - not in the same "ball-park"!.

That doesn't have the emotional impact of your ridiculous and meaningless 1060, does it?

But you talk of densities rather misses the point! It is external pressure differences that slightly affect the thrust.

So, what our great mathematician Rabinoz is actually saying is this :

When you subtract 0,0001 from 1, you get 0,9999...Now, since 0,9999 is practically 1, then the difference between 0,0001 and 1 is 1, not 10000!!!

In an example above, according to our Einstein (Rabinoz) the difference between 10^-3 and 10^-24 is 10^-3 because we have to subtract 10^-24 from 10^-3 in order to get the difference... The difference (in literal meaning of this word "the difference") is 10^-3, indeed, but the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"

So, the real difference between our two numbers (between density of air and density of vacuum) is 10^21 a.k.a. sextillion a.k.a order of magnitude 21.

NASA is no match to our Einstein (Rabinoz)!!!

Quote from: cikljamas
The difference (in literal meaning of this word "the difference") is 10^-3, indeed, but the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"
In this case, we really are interested in the literal meaning of this word "the difference" because the pressure difference is the cause of any forces involved and on the rocket engines performance.

Quote from: cikljamas
So, the real difference between our two numbers (between density of air and density of vacuum) is 10^21 a.k.a. sextillion a.k.a order of magnitude 21.
No, that it the ratio of the two numbers and that is of no importance in this context at all!

To work out the thrust of a rocket or the force on the walls of a pressure vessel it is the strict difference that matters. Only one totally ignorant in these matters would claim otherwise!

Quote from: cikljamas
NASA is no match to our Einstein (Rabinoz)!!!
I see nowhere that I would be on conflict with either NASA or Einstein on a matter like this.
Of course on other matters, Einstein would have understood far more that I and NASA would have experts that would know far more than I on any of this.

Now don’t falsely downgrade your own expertise.
NASA engineers are trying to solve the challenges lying ahead while trying to fly men through the VAB twice.
You know so much about the very modest threat of radiation in the belts that plotting a trajectory through them just like in the old days seems without particular dangers.

Are you sure you don’t want to offer your unsurpassed knowledge to the Orion team ?
They really think the VAB is a place full of radiation hazards that could get people killed when crossing twice.....silly youngsters ::)

On the other hand, if you are trying to prove that there is no recoil (?),
then you are trying to say that rockets "don't work in the atmosphere either".
And that will be a little harder to prove, since we all saw those firework rockets in action.

Recoil force explanation for how rockets fly (in a vacuum) is UTTER NONSENSE AND ANOTHER NASA'S CON OF GIGANTIC PROPORTIONS, and i have proven my point regarding this issue beyond reasonable doubt. The best indication of validity of my numerous arguments (presented throughout this whole thread) is your inability to respond sanely and DIRECTLY to any of my arguments...Let's list a few of them here :

1. Free expansion argument + Thermodynamics :

In memory and honor of Bill Kaysing (or perhaps we'd better just say in honor of good sense) let's present the science here that shames the Wernher von Brauns of our world into coughing up the truth: their rocket programs are full of hot air. - hp]

After seeing the evidence of fakery in NASA pictures and videos in this forum I decided to investigate the theoretical basis of rockets in space. What I found on the Internet were mainly tricks, frauds and sleights of hand, name-calling and attacks used to confuse the issue and hide the facts. Bypassing all of that and doing original research I have come to the conclusion that rockets cannot function in space according the descriptions/formulas used by NASA and related parties.

With neither theory on its side nor reliable, verifiable, repeatable scientific experiments on its side the idea of rocket thrust in my estimation remains a fiction presented to the world as an achievement: a modern day Marco Polo story.

I will try to present my findings with a minimum of math and formulae as these are often used to drawn us into traps, causing us to argue the minutiae of red herrings or chase ghosts. These ruses remind me of the joke about on which side of the barn roof the rooster’s egg will fall. How often do people forget that rooster’s don’t lay eggs?

There are 4 major ideas on presented on the Internet, including NASA web sites, as to how rockets generate thrust in space
1. Newton’s 3rd Law : for every force there is an equal and opposite
2. Newtons’s 2nd Law : Force = Mass x Acceleration
3. Conservation of Momentum
4. The use of a specialized nozzle to accelerate the gas inside the ship, concentrate and aim the gas jet

I will address each of these issues showing why they are invalid. In addition I will review the results (and lack thereof) of the founders of space rocketry Hermann Oberth (who designed most of the rocket science for the Fritz Lang film Woman in the Moon), Goddard, who was the first to claim an experimental result proving vacuum thrust and Clarke, a champion of Newton’s 3rd law.

There’s obviously too much to cover in one post so I’ll start by addressing the most popular response to those who question how rockets operate in the vacuum of space: Newton’s 3rd Law, that is to say that a rocket when it exhausts propellant will be pushed in the opposite direction.

The problem with applying Newton’s 3rd is that the rocket’s propellant does not generate force in a vacuum according to the laws of physics and chemistry. If the force of the propellant is 0 then Newton’s 3rd states that
Force on Rocket=-Force of Gas.
If Force of Gas = 0 the rocket does not move.

Why doesn’t the propellant generate any force, it's expanding, right?
There is something known as “Free Expansion” or the “Joule-Thomson” effect, named after James Prescott Joule and J.J. Thompson two of the founders of the field of Physical Chemistry.
http://www.etomica.org/app/modules/sites/JouleThomson/Background2.html
Free Expansion states that when a pressurized gas is exposed to a vacuum the gas expanding into the vacuum without any work being done. The gas is not “pulled” or “sucked” into the vacuum nor is it “pushed” out of the high-pressure container. In other words no work is done, no heat or energy is lost.
This result has been experimentally verified numerous times since its discovery in the 1850’s.
[for example a paper in the Journal of Physical Chemistry from 1902: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/j150043a002]

As if Free Expansion wasn’t enough to invalidate the theory of rockets producing a force in a vacuum there is also a result from thermodynamics:
Work = Pressure x Change_in_Volume
that is easily found searching for “W=PV”
http://lsc.ucdavis.edu/~ahart/Alicia2B/Thermo.pdf
If the pressure of a system is 0 then the work done by the expanding gas into that system is 0. Gas expanding in a vacuum doing no work agrees with Free Expansion. This can also be understood as the gas meets no resistance as it exits into the vacuum and thus transfers neither heat nor energy to its surroundings. If the gas loses neither heat nor energy then it has done no work.

At this point we have a rocket with high-pressure gas generated from liquid fuel that can release the gas into a vacuum but has no way to produce a force while doing so. As soon as the nozzle is opened the gasses escape without doing any work. Therefore the 3rd Law is rendered useless.

As it turns out NASA does not fall into the 3rd Law trap (nor does it go around correcting all the sites who do) instead claiming that thrust of a space rocket is generated using what I call The Wrong Formula, an egregious farce of Newton's 2nd law which I will address in a later next post.

To recap: Newton’s 3rd Law, the number one response on the Internet to how a rocket generates thrust in space, is invalid in this context. NASA itself avoids using Newton’s 3rd Law as the reason why their rockets work so well in space choosing to use Newton’s 2nd Law instead. I will show in a later post why NASA’s use the 2nd Law is equally invalid and in fact a hideous misrepresentation of the laws of physics that would give a freshman college student a failing grade yet earns NASA an "A" thanks to its pretty pictures, dramatic story lines, and gutsy champions, the astronauts.[/i]

A COMMON OBJECTION :

Quote
On Earth, shooting something causes friction with the thing being shot. Least of all, air all around us. The shooter will be effected by the action of shooting. However, in a vacuum, there being no friction with anything, shooting something just wastes that thing and sends it soaring uselessly into the void.

But if that's true, then you're saying a gun (by a magic gunman and gun that can exist and fire in a perfect vacuum) would not be pushed back by the bullet, it would just eject the bullet without an effect on the gun or the arm of the gunman? Simply because of a lack of air pressure and friction and so on?

So there is no jet propulsion that would work because any explosive reaction that could even occur in space would be wasted in it completely.

THE PROPER ANSWER TO OBJECTION ABOVE :

Short answer: Yes a gun recoils in space. No, the analogy does not apply to rockets.

Longer version: Shooting a gun in space would happen theoretically as follows: pressurized gas accelerates the bullet through the barrel until the bullet leaves the muzzle. At that point the gas that was pushing the bullet escapes without doing any more work i.e. via free expansion. The energy of the bullet (its momentum) travels with the bullet and the gun recoils by principle of conservation of momentum.

The gun analogy does not apply to a NASA-type space rocket as their pressurized gas escapes without doing any work at all. A NASA rocket is a gun without a bullet.

AN EXCERPT FROM ONE OTHER COMMENT POSTED WITHIN THE SAME THREAD :

Quote
I think I see what you mean. To try to put this in unnecessarily simple layman's terms: because the vacuum is just complete void, it can freely take on just about an infinite amount of anything, at any rate, without actually anything significant happening. Hence, we hold on to the idea that mass exiting a craft into a vacuum would actually cause any motion in the craft only because we are used to such behavior in a non-vacuum.

THE RESPOND TO THE COMMENT ABOVE :

You are correct, in addition to the gas leaving the ship for "free" (doing no work, exerting no force) the change in the mass of the rocket due to the escaped gas has nothing to do with rocket propulsion. In order for "lost mass" to exert force the ship MUST be accelerating. The formula is:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

If Acceleration is 0 then force is 0 no matter what the mass or how it is changes over time.

Put another way, if the force of the gas (force = 0) exiting the ship didn't cause the ship to move (the ship isn't accelerating) due to free expansion then looking at the problem from the perspective of the mass of the gas leaving the ship won't magically cause the ship to move all of a sudden.

NASA tries to pull this nonsense as well as some other ridiculous fake science stunts to make it seem like their rockets have a chance to function in a vacuum.

2. Escape velocity problem :

So, how many more times are you going to put forward this kind of stupid questions : why is that problem, so what is the importance of this, what is the importance of that? What a funny parrots you are...

Rabinoz, what is the importance of this :

Tom Bishop says :

It clearly says the following on NASA's website.

https://history.nasa.gov/SP-368/s1ch2.htm

"The crew checked out the spacecraft, and, after approximately three hours in Earth orbit, the Saturn IV-B stage was fired for approximately five minutes to accelerate the spacecraft to an Earth-gravity escape velocity of 40 233 km/hr (25 000 mph) to begin its 370 149 km (230 000 mile) coast to the moon. Following the translunar injection maneuver, the Apollo spacecraft was separated from the Saturn IV-B stage."

https://images.nasa.gov/details-0100983.html

"The S-IVB restarted to speed the Apollo spacecraft to escape velocity injecting it and the astronauts into a moon trajectory."

https://www.nasa.gov/feature/50-years-ago-the-journey-to-the-moon-begins

"Two hours and 44 minutes after liftoff, the third stage engine ignited for the six-minute TLI burn, increasing the spacecraft’s velocity to more than 24,000 miles per hour, enough to escape Earth’s gravity."

Apollo 15 Flight Journal https://history.nasa.gov/afj/ap15fj/03tde.html

The stack is 40 metres long and 6.6 metres at its widest, weighing over 65 metric tonnes; not an insubstantial load to have propelled away from Earth at escape velocity.

Popular mechanics:

Instead, the remaining structure continued to orbit Earth until a "go/no-go" decision was made by Mission Control in Houston. At that time, the third-stage rocket, technically known as an S-IVB, reignited and achieved "translunar injection." Once escape velocity, the speed needed to overcome Earth's gravity, or 24,500 mph, was achieved, the S-IVB was discarded as well.

...

They are clearly claiming to reach escape velocity of the Earth's gravity to inject into a trans lunar orbit. In order to reach escape velocity, it must be done in relation to the center of the earth.

Escape Velocity has only to do with the speed away from the center of the earth, not any particular method of application.

It is just how we are taught about Escape Velocity. Look at this page from Georgia State:

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/vesc.html

(https://i.imgur.com/WmwN1tj.png)

Disregarding any and all applications which any space agency claims to use, how would you describe this image if you had to put it into a sentence?

One way to phrase it is that the object needs to go straight up, or away from the earth, at 7 miles per second. It is simply what needs to be done. A description of Escape Velocity as commonly taught and nothing more. I can change the "straight up" in the sentence to "away from the earth" if it makes it more clear.

3. DON'T YOU SEE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM :

There is a synergy (combined deadly effects (inconsistencies)) of three HUGE problems here :

1. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)!

2. As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

3. To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

I can't decide whether you actually believe that rockets don't work in a vacuum, or whether this is just fun for you.

However, assuming you do believe what you post, your belief is wrong along with your arguments over the physics which seem to be based upon a misconception of the principles.

And debating your idea of how rockets work the way you've attempted to rather than the getting into the nitty gritty of the 'maths' seems to me just a swerve to avoid the obvious hole you'll find yourself in.

My physics classes finished long ago and with others on this thread being demonstrably more than capable of knocking down your arguments, I'm not attempting to address that.

Where I'm coming from is that apart from misunderstanding the principles of rocketry, you're doing this against all the evidence that rockets work in a vacuum, the whole body of work that surrounds it and the history of its development.

For obvious reasons the BBC has recently had some programmes on about the Apollo landings. But also a couple of days ago one about the development of rocketry presented by Jim Al-Khalili:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0007f4d/revolutions-the-ideas-that-changed-the-world-series-1-3-the-rocket

Another interesting one was about the Voyager mission, an incredible achievement:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b09gvnty/storyville-the-farthest-voyagers-interstellar-journey

I knew about some of those in the history of rockets, but a new one on me was this chappie:

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

OK, he may indeed be well known and maybe I should have heard of him but hey ho, there you go.

But the point is he wasn't a NASA scientist in on the hoax. In fact since then there have been countless scientists, technicians, support staff and organisations involved in the development and design of rockets with a history stretching back over 100 years of theory and development to get to where we are today. Not only NASA but China, the EU, the UK, India, Israel, France, Russia, etc., etc., all are involved in projects relying on rockets actually working in space. 

But for some reason you and other rocket deniers can't accept this.

Picking what you think are anomalies based upon misconceptions and believing what to me seem deliberately misleading information is characteristic of being a conspiracy theorist. Also swerving admitting that you were fooled by a hoaxed photograph purportedly made by NASA is telling.

So no manner of debate or evidence shown to you will likely make you change your mind. It's possible, but I doubt it.

Anyway, fascinating thread and very informative.

Still no answer to very simple questions.
I wonder why?

the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"
I notice you completely skip over even attempting to answer it.
But thanks for yet again showing you can't honestly present simple math.

Now care to try and answer them?

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
I have already provided the rational answer.

The only rational option is to accept the rockets work.
The only other option is to reject physics, by either claiming Newton's third law is garbage and the gas can magically accelerate with a force applied without a corresponding reactionary force, or discarding the second law and claiming the gas can magically accelerate without any force, or discard physics and claim you can magically contain a gas in an open container exposed to vacuum.

Which is it going to be?

And again:
What do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?
Again, the rational option is that it will leave Earth's region of gravitational influence, i.e. be above escape velocity.
The only other option is to reject physics and appeal to some magical force that magically holds it to Earth just because it wasn't going in the right direction.

All avoiding them does is show you have no concern for the truth.

They really think the VAB is a place full of radiation hazards that could get people killed when crossing twice.....silly youngsters ::)
Because people care more about radiation these days and they want to go straight through rather than around.

And then you paste a quote where von Braun says that rockets can and will leave the Earth.

He goes on to say it will take three rockets to get to the moon, because otherwise it would take a very big rocket. Note that at the time, nobody could have imagined a rocket as humongous as the Saturn V. And that one operated in stages, dropping off used stages when they were no longer needed. Even the lander left its base stage sitting on the moon, and used a lighter stage to return to the orbiter.

In any case, read what YOU posted: von Braun says rockets can and will leave the Earth.

To expect von Braun to have anticipated the Saturn V rocket would be like expecting Henry Ford to have anticipated top-fuel dragsters.

No, you repeatedly avoided answering.

The closest you get is saying if that was the case they would need to eject half their mass at 8 km/s, and appealing to free expansion.
No where did you actually address the question.

Now again, the gas starts with a velocity of 0 relative to the rocket, and then after some time it has a non-0 velocity.
This demands a force to accelerate it (so your free expansion argument is pure BS).
What is providing this force? What is the other body involved?

Either answer the question or stop claiming that rockets can't work in space.

Yes. Von Braun was telling us that rockets work in space.

You’re displaying another characteristic of a conspiracy theorist, that being a wall of cut and paste text as well as overthinking and inferring from straightforward events and statements something which which was never meant. Such as ‘It looked odd’, ‘something’s not quite right’, ‘were Duran Duran trying to tell us something by the symbolism on their album cover’, .... I think you get the drift.

By the way, Von Braun’s V2 rockets were apparently the first to travel through space to get to their target.

Didn't i? Well, maybe i didn't, but there is someone who has certainly accomplished your challenging mission (you yourself), and you should be proud of yourself for achieving such a demanding goal, shouldn't you?

Let's try once again (and this will be the last time) :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

I'm afraid I'll have to cite Newton's Third Law once again. Sorry, folks - I know... you've heard this one before!
"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to that of the first body."

Perhaps Newton's third law should have specified (and highlighted the importance of) the relative masses of the two bodies involved. The bodies need to be of equal mass in order for the "equal in magnitude" part of this law to be true. Or perhaps Newton DID specify that - but NASA has simply decided to ignore this crucial part and are happy to use the above, less-than-accurate phrase in the hope of getting away with their stratospheric lies.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do. Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum. Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram. I think our poor friend Isaac is rolling and howling in his grave - seeing how NASA is abusing / distorting his laws in order to fool the world. Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.

NASA often use the analogy of a man sitting in a boat throwing bricks out the back to demonstrate how their rockets work; according to them the brick represents the rocket exhaust.

This is false.

In fact it is the man's hand that represents the rocket exhaust, whilst the brick represents the atmosphere.

You see what they did there?

The same principle can be applied to their 'Newton's Chariot' model as well.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent)


There is a synergy (combined deadly effects (inconsistencies)) of three HUGE problems here :

1. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

2. As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

3. To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Now, let's get back to my midget-soldier midget project.

(https://i.postimg.cc/3xgxzVDz/RUSSIAN-SOLDIER-ROCKET.jpg)

The GAU-8 itself weighs 620 pounds (280 kg), but the complete weapon, with feed system and drum, weighs 4,029 pounds (1,828 kg) with a maximum ammunition load.

980 N force is needed for lifting 100 kg.
980 * 18,28 = 17,91 kN

If we replaced "SKHAS Ultra" Russian machine gun with GAU-8 Avenger, then we get 2,5 times more force than needed for lifting off our midget soldier and/on his "rocket" (GAU-8 Avanger)...

Now, all you have to do is to jump on your GAU-8 Avanger "rocket" and demonstrate to us, how you can EASILY harness GAU-8 power as your flying broom(stick).

Now, two interesting questions for Rabinoz and Jack Black :

Q1 : Why would GAU-8 Recoil Flying Broom(stick) "fly" in a vacuum much better than a rocket, (at least IN PRICIPLE)???
Q2 : Why our midget soldier wouldn't manage to fly harnessing GAU-8 Avanger's Recoil Power, turning it into An Effective Flying Broom(stick), here on Earth???

Don't you believe that? I fail to see any issue with Werner Von Braun's statement.

Quote from: cikljamas
Wernher von Braun confirmed that rockets can't leave earth:
He said nothing of the sort!
Quote from: cikljamas
From the 1953 book called "Conquest of the Moon" (Wernher von Braun, Fred L. Whipple, Willy Ley - page 14 :
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/mrplgdrxw4lfnj4/cikljamas%2C%20From%20the%201953%20book%20called%20Conquest%20of%20the%20Moon%27%20-%20Wernher-Von-Braun-page-14-X.jpg?dl=1)
Note that the book was dated 1953 so it would have only covered Wernher von Braun's ideas from before then.
And 1953 was four years before any country had launched any satellites into orbit and eight years before John F Kennedy proposed that the US "should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth."

But Wernher von Braun's plans for one huge Queen Mary sized rocket or the assembly of a large rocket in space were discarded in favour of the approach used in the Apollo missions.

The multi-stage system used in Apollo involved a lot of docking in space and the US had no experience of this until the Gemini missions from 1961 to 1963.

Vladimir Markin, a former spokesman for the government's official Investigative Committee, said the committee had called for an inquiry to find out what happened to the original footage of the first moon landing in 1969 and also lunar rock, brought back to Earth during the several "missions".

Apollo 11 missing tapes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_11_missing_tapes)
The Apollo 11 missing tapes were those that were recorded from Apollo 11's slow-scan television (SSTV) telecast in its raw format on telemetry data tape at the time of the first Moon landing in 1969 and subsequently lost. The data tapes were recorded as a backup in case the live television broadcasts failed for any reason.

To broadcast the SSTV transmission on standard television, NASA ground receiving stations performed real-time scan conversion to the NTSC television format. The moonwalk's converted video signal was broadcast live around the world on July 21, 1969 (2:56 UTC). At the time, the NTSC broadcast was recorded on many videotapes and kinescope films. Many of these low-quality recordings remain intact. The SSTV signal was recorded on telemetry data tapes as a backup in the event that real-time conversion and broadcast failed. As the real-time broadcast worked and was widely recorded, preservation of the backup video was not deemed a priority in the years immediately following the mission.[1] In the early 1980s, NASA's Landsat program was facing a severe data tape shortage and it is likely the tapes were erased and reused at this time.

The reason they were reused was that . . .  the method of manufacturing the tapes had changed and the emulsion of the new tapes flaked off so NASA taped over some of the Apollo 11 tapes for the more important LandSat data!
Quote from: cikljamas
He said: "We are not contending that they did not fly [to the moon], and simply made a film about it. But all of these scientific — or perhaps cultural — artefacts are part of the legacy of humanity, and their disappearance without a trace is our common loss. An investigation will reveal what happened."

In 2009, NASA said it "erased" the original video recordings of the first moon landing among 200,000 other tapes in order to save money.

It has since said restored copies of the landing had been put together using recordings from news footage at the time.

NASA claims because of restoration work undertaken during this, the recordings' quality is better than the original which is no longer available.

Wernher von Braun confirmed that rockets can't leave earth:
[...]

And then you paste a quote where von Braun says that rockets can and will leave the Earth.

He goes on to say it will take three rockets to get to the moon, because otherwise it would take a very big rocket. Note that at the time, nobody could have imagined a rocket as humongous as the Saturn V. And that one operated in stages, dropping off used stages when they were no longer needed. Even the lander left its base stage sitting on the moon, and used a lighter stage to return to the orbiter.

In any case, read what YOU posted: von Braun says rockets can and will leave the Earth.

To expect von Braun to have anticipated the Saturn V rocket would be like expecting Henry Ford to have anticipated top-fuel dragsters.

I'm not sure what to think of you when you disprove your own statement right in the same post.

Post by: JackBlack on August 08, 2019, 04:11:45 PM
Didn't i? Well, maybe i didn't
Then why lie and say you did?

but there is someone who has certainly accomplished your challenging mission (you yourself)
It isn't challenging to me or any sane person as I (and they) fully accept that rockets can work in space. It is not any significant accomplishment. It is merely being able to apply VERY SIMPLE physics. A child could do it.
The only challenge is to someone like you.
You need to explain how a force is applied to move the gas while magically not moving the rocket.

If you want to accept my answer as the correct one, that means accepting rockets work in space.
So do you accept that?
If not, ANSWER THE QUESTION!
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Let's try once again (and this will be the last time) :
Repeating the same nonsense, which has already been addressed, will not help your case.

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.
Wrong.
Firstly free expansion does not apply.
There is no net change in velocity due to free expansion.
The gas starts and ends with a velocity of 0.
It is a closed system.
That is nothing like a rocket.
A rocket is not a closed system.
The gas exits with a velocity.
That means the gas MUST be accelerated and thus MUST have a force applied.
You need to explain where this force comes from.
Or you need to explain how the laws of physics are violated such that an object with mass can accelerate to change velocity without any application of force.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).
Stop lying,
A space ship is NOT a closed system.
The exhaust gas leaves the rocket.
Force is "exchanged" between the rocket and the exhaust.
The exhaust is pushed backwards and the rocket is pushed forwards.

3. Based on 1 and 2
Which are pure lies and thus cannot be used as the basis for any rational conclusion.
Instead, based upon the reality of 1 and 2, that is that a force MUST be applied to accelerate the gas outside of the rocket, and that the only body that this gas can interact with is the rocket, then rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void.
Another blatant lie.
Liquid does not immediately convert to gas, nor does gas immediately equalise in pressure.
Both are physical processes which take time.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second.
Citation needed.
I find varying speeds depending on the rocket.

A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.
This is literally you just pulling numbers from no where.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.
And that is just another lie.
All honest scientists (including myself) will admit there are a multitude of factors which go into how long it will take for the pressure to equalise.
A large portion of science requires taking a significant time to equalise pressure between 2 chambers such that the pressure of a chamber can be regulated by opening a valve to vacuum or compressed gas.

If the BS you are preaching is true then these systems would not work. We would be completely unable to control pressure and such systems would wildly fluctuate between vacuum and extreme pressure with the gas cylinders emptying after a few cycles.

Repeatedly lying about how physics work will not help you. It just shows you either have no idea what you are talking about or are quite happy blatantly lying to everyone.

\
Perhaps Newton's third law should have specified (and highlighted the importance of) the relative masses of the two bodies involved.
No, it shouldn't have as the relative masses are completely irrelevant to the third law.
They are important in the second law.
It doesn't matter what the masses are, the force will be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
If this wasn't the case you could magically get forces from nothing.
The acceleration produced as a result of this force will depend upon mass.

Would you prefer a variation which instead of focusing on force focuses on acceleration?

they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once
Again, PURE BS that you are yet to substantiate at all.
Repeatedly asserting the same lie will not help your case.

In fact it is the man's hand that represents the rocket exhaust, whilst the brick represents the atmosphere.
Yet another lie.
Notice that the man's hand remains attached to him, but the bricks do not?
Notice how the rocket exhaust does not remain attached to the rocket?
Instead the exhaust is expelled from the rocket at very high speed.
That means the hand CANNOT represent the exhaust.
The only thing in the representation which can represent the exhaust are the bricks.
The boat is the rocket. The hand is the combustion chamber/nozzle.
The bricks are the exhaust, and the air is the air.

In Summary
All you have done is spouted lie after lie, completley ignoring the reality of the situation.
As an honest summary:
The gas leaves the rocket, changing velocity as it does so.
This requires that a force acts on the gas to accelerate it.
The only body capable of providing this force is the rocket.
Newton's third law thus demands the rocket will be accelerated.
Newton's second law indicates that because the rocket is much more massive than the gas, the rocket will accelerate less than the gas.

they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity
And another lie.
You have provided absolutely no basis for this.

As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.
And another lie.
Why would it?
Gravity does decrease with altitude, no matter how much you want to lie and pretend it doesn't.
More importantly, the mass of the rocket is decreasing, which means it will need less thrust.
Also importantly, the air pressure is dropping and thus air resistance is dropping so it needs less thrust.

Now, let's get back to my midget-soldier midget project.
Again, why should we?
How about you address the very simple questions first.

When you can either explain how mass can magically accelerate without any force, or admit that rockets will work in a vacuum, we can move on to other ideas.

And you have to change that number 681 km with 434 km because using the second number (434 km) is geometrically CORRECT choice, and using the first number (681 km) is geometrically WRONG choice which renders your math INVALID!!!

Observer standing at the edge of the Arctic circle while the Earth rotates (relative)
does not move along the diameter of the circle.
He goes along the circumference of the circle.
Projection of the speed on the diameter is not linear it is cosine function and in the middle you have value far away from the average.
Very far away.

So, you have to take numbers from reality, not from what you wish.
You surely would love to have 434 instead of the 681.
And we would all love to have wings.

Unfortunately, neither matches the reality around us.

- propeller pushing air backwards

Although a propeller does push air backwards, its main thrust comes from lift: The propeller blade is an airfoil, and the air in back of the spinning propeller presses harder on the back side of the blades that the air in front presses on the forward side. The same effect that causes lift on the wings causes thrust on the propeller. A rocket engine (which does work in a vacuum) operates on different principles than a propeller.

If you want to look like that, then:

In front of the propeller you have pressure lower than the atmospheric and behind it pressure higher than the atmospheric.

In front of the rocket in vacuum you have pressure zero and behind (in the combustion chamber and in the nozzle) you have the pressure of the expanding exhaust.

In both cases there is the difference in pressure that pushes forward.

Very different mechanisms operating on very different physical principles. Note that propellers and fanjets do not work in a vacuum but rockets do. A propeller is an airfoil creating lift. A rocket operates by shooting hot gas out the back.

Although a propeller does push air backwards, its main thrust comes from lift: The propeller blade is an airfoil, and the air in back of the spinning propeller presses harder on the back side of the blades that the air in front presses on the forward side. The same effect that causes lift on the wings causes thrust on the propeller. A rocket engine (which does work in a vacuum) operates on different principles than a propeller.

If you want to look like that, then:

In front of the propeller you have pressure lower than the atmospheric and behind it pressure higher than the atmospheric.

In front of the rocket in vacuum you have pressure zero and behind (in the combustion chamber and in the nozzle) you have the pressure of the expanding exhaust.

In both cases there is the difference in pressure that pushes forward.

Very different mechanisms operating on very different physical principles. Note that propellers and fanjets do not work in a vacuum but rockets do. A propeller is an airfoil creating lift. A rocket operates by shooting hot gas out the back.

That "very diferent" principle is all based on kinetic energy given to the objects by the molecules of the gas through hitting the surface of the object.
With propeller it happens from both sides but with different intensity, with rocket in vacuum it happens only from behind.

(Every force is just a resultant, mathematical representation of what really happens.)

... a wall of cut and paste text ...

cikljamas normally pastes text. In the von Braun quote he appears to have pasted an image of text. The difference being that he cannot run that through Google Translate, so he doesn't actually know what it is that he pasted.

I find it amusing that this thread is still going on after 17 pages. Yes, I share responsibility for that. But 'jamas just posts complete nonsense and then asserts that it proves his point. It's like if I posted the poem Jabberwocky and then said that it proves that elephants are made of cheese. It makes me wonder who's more nuts: 'jamas, or the rest of us for taking the time to argue with someone who's either punking us (most likely) or else completely off his nut.

Mea culpa.

A bit of a thread drift, but pertinent to this and other similar debates. I was aware of many of conspiracy theories over the years, the grassy knoll being an example. But it wasn't until 9/11 and stumbling across a forum discussing it that I became fully aware of the 'conspiracy theorist' mindest. I started pointing out to them obvious facts thinking surely they'll understand their mistakes. It then dawned on me that no matter how many times I explained facts and technicalities, especially on property and building matters which is my area of knowledge, they just wouldn't accept the evidence. It then became just a backwards and forwards of the same CTs raised and the same argument against.

What also struck me, was the willingness to have a myriad of different conspiracy theories all being given space and yet I was seen as the spoilsport who's views were just seen as parroting the government/CIA/Zionist/Rothschilds/take your pick, etc.,  narrative.

I take my hat off to those who post here who are seemingly knowledgeable and have the patience to keep responding and debating. 

Back to the thread, which I do find interesting. Every day's a learning day with some of the stuff coming up.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second.

Exhaust velocity of Ariana 5 rocket (at sea level) : 2749 m/s

So 2749-2740 = 7 m/s = 15 miles per km
I can run faster than Ariana 5 rocket can fly in a Vacuum!
Given the following illustration i can run much faster than Ariana 5 rocket can fly in a Vacuum :

Remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air.

But the BIG question is: just HOW MUCH power would a rocket lose as it enters into near-vacuum?

There is no "BIG question"! A rocket loses no thrust as it enters into a near-vacuum and in fact gradually gains thrust all the way!

Look again at "Goddard's" rocket thrust equation: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/e63c0hkzoyx1604/Goddard%20Rocket%20Equation%20-%20alone.png?dl=1)
The lower the outside pressure, Po, the higher the thrust, F.

Rabinoz, you don't even know when you have to apply division instead of subtraction...Once again, just for you :

Remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

When we change your number 681 km/h (which he got by dividing circumference of Arctic circle by 24 hours) with 434 km/h (which i got by dividing diameter of Arctic circle by 12 hours AND THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO SO TO COMPLY WITH THE CORE OF MY ZIGZAG ARGUMENT) then you get CORRECT result!!!

And you have to change that number 681 km with 434 km because using the second number (434 km) is geometrically CORRECT choice, and using the first number (681 km) is geometrically WRONG choice which renders your math INVALID!!!

Observer standing at the edge of the Arctic circle while the Earth rotates (relative)
does not move along the diameter of the circle.
He goes along the circumference of the circle.
Projection of the speed on the diameter is not linear it is cosine function and in the middle you have value far away from the average.
Very far away.

So, you have to take numbers from reality, not from what you wish.
You surely would love to have 434 instead of the 681.
And we would all love to have wings.

Unfortunately, neither matches the reality around us.
You are right, a straight imaginary line that connects two points (at the edge of the Arctic circle) between which our hypothetical observer (at the edge of the Arctic circle) travels in one hour is not so much shorter (434 km, that is to say : for the whole 247 km) in comparison with a curved line (681 km). I suppose that the difference is somewhere between 30 - 50 km, which value (when included in our equation) doesn't produce expected (by me) difference (for HC scenario) in comparison to GC scenario.

However, these 30 - 50 km difference still makes the difference regarding the core of my ZIGZAG argument. It means that you have to take into consideration "directional gyro problem," that is to say : If directional gyro maintains rigidity in space, then you have to explain to us : how come that we can't simply direct our gyro towards the sun (or even better - towards some fixed star) so that we can observe rotational motion of the earth as it drifts below our space-rigid-gyro which would constantly (if HC theory were true description of our reality) point towards the sun/fixed star, thus providing for us (for all intents and purposes) our desired ZIGZAG motion, that is to say : mimicking motion of the observer at the edge of the Arctic circle in a straight line, although he is actually moving circularly?

You have already brought up that diagram plenty of times, and had it refuted plenty of times.
It is nothing more than completely baseless extrapolation.

But the BIG question is: just HOW MUCH power would a rocket lose as it enters into near-vacuum?
Yes, that is a big question, which you are yet to address in any meaningful way. Instead you just assert that it loses all power.
But people have already done that, in the form of the rocket equation.

Rabinoz, you don't even know when you have to apply division instead of subtraction
No, that would be you, claiming a difference (which is subtraction) uses division.

I suppose that the difference is somewhere between 30 - 50 km, which value (when included in our equation) doesn't produce expected (by me) difference (for HC scenario) in comparison to GC scenario.
Again, if you want to discuss your zig-zag BS which proves the sun and moon are far away and is incapable of proving which is moving, do so in the existing thread.
And no, the difference is more like 1 km, and it makes no difference at all as the exact same issue arises for the motion of the moon. The core of your zig-zag argument is pure BS.

Now again, how about you try to answer the simple question which shows conclusively that rockets MUST work in a vacuum?
Why are you so afraid of it?
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Rabinoz, you don't even know when you have to apply division instead of subtraction...Once again, just for you :
I most certainly do know "when you have to apply division instead of subtraction".
The force on the wall of a space capsule or the Lunar Lander depends on the pressure difference and not the pressure ratio.
the Apollo CM and Lunar Lander were pressurised to roughly one third normal atmospheric pressure.

So situations like that a partial vacuum of say 100 Pa (about 0.001 x normal atmospheric pressure) is negligibly different from that in space of roughly 1 × 10−11 Pa (about 10-16 x normal atmospheric pressure).

It is the pressure difference that matters here.

Please note exactly what NASA said:

and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air
The rocket engine starts "losing efficiency" NOT losing thrust. In other words, a little more thrust could be obtained by using a larger nozzle.
But please note that NASA does not say rocket engines lose power or lose thrust "as they ascend into ever thinner air".

And then read exactly what I wrote:

I was comparing the rocket's thrust not the "efficiency" and as I've said before a little more thrust (and hence efficiency) could in principle be achieved by using a larger nozzle.
It is soon found that there is a practical limit on the nozzle size and this is commonly the diameter of the rocket body.

Look at this:

What are the differences between a standard Merlin engine and the Merlin Vacuum engine? (https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/8806/what-are-the-differences-between-a-standard-merlin-engine-and-the-merlin-vacuum)
This pic is said to be, left to right: Falcon 1 Merlin 1C, Falcon 9 1C (different mounting), and Falcon 9 2nd stage 1C vacuum -- without the extension nozzle, so it's a shorter, fatter nozzle than the others.
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/0A9SH.jpg)

And here's what the extension nozzle looks like by itself:
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/YC9rw.jpg)
That's what a nozzle for a vacuum engine looks like. I tried to scale the two photos correctly.

The limit on that nozzle, in this case, is the diameter of stage 2 of the Falcon 9.

Do you understand these issues yet?

There are various factors contributing to the performance of an aircraft between take-off and landing. An important factor is the density of air. When the atmospheric air density decreases, both engine and aerodynamic performance of the aircraft decreases. The reason being is that with lower density, air molecules are further apart from each other - in other words, there are less air molecules per cubic meter.

Pressure altitude is dependent on the barometric pressure, and the density altitude incorporates an adjustment factor for temperature. In other words, density altitude is pressure altitude corrected for temperature.

If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.
So, I really can run faster than Ariana 5 rocket can fly in a Vacuum, since no rocket can fly in a vacuum, whatsoever!

The escape velocity from Earth is about 11.186 km/s NOT your 8km/s but the orbital velocity at 200 km is 7784 m/s - close to your figure.

But to even get into a 200 km orbit from the ground a rocket must overcome gravity and air-resistance till it leaves the atmosphere.
Without more details that cannot be calculated but to get to LEO requires approximately the equivalent of an extra 2.6 km/s velocity.

So we'll see if your rocket might even get to LEO.

So here you want to achieve a (https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/28563b5d468baab12a7d33b49cac197c2c1ed885) of 7784 + 2600 = 10,384 m/s.

Yes, but 7784 m/s is the orbital velocity at 200 km, however contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going 7 miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! So, alleged orbital velocity (even if it were real phenomena, and i doubt it, since i know that the earth is stationary) would still be of no use due to the wrong direction of motion, which is perpendicular wrt needed/demanding direction (away from the center of gravity)!!!


@ Jack,
If you want to draw a straight line between two 681km distant points at the Equator, you have to drill a tunnel which will be 9 km deep (below earth's surface) right in the middle (halfway between our two 681 km distant points). Isn't that so? So, for how much this straight line (a tunnel) is going to be shorter than our 681km long road built at the surface of the Earth along the Equator?

Now, imagine that our (earthly) Arctic circle (5200 km in diameter) is the equator of some other planet, and Buzz and Neil have done the same thing, they drilled a tunnel between two 681 km distant points situated along the equator of another hypothetical planet....
Q1 : How deep (below the surface of that smaller (than earth) planet) will be a tunnel halfway between 681 km distant points?
Q2 : For how much Buzz and Neil have cut off the distance between two points situated along the equator of another hypothetical planet?

Problems with formulas :

(https://notes.tyrocity.com/wp-content/uploads/Velocity-of-sound-in-air-or-gas.png)

Newton’s formula for the velocity of sound in the gas medium is given by,

μ = √K/S

Where k is bulk modulus of medium (gasair) and s be the density of medium.

According to the newton’s sound waves travels through the air of gas. Isothermally i.e. the vibration of the temperature in the region of compression and rarefaction are negligible or an isothermal process Boyle’s law holds true.

 

i.e. pv = constant

 

Differentiating with respect to v,

(https://notes.tyrocity.com/wp-content/uploads/Velocity-of-sound-in-air-or-gas.png)

Due to the propagation of sound wave.

Here, dv/v represents the volumetric strain and dp represents the force applied by wave per unit area of medium.

(https://notes.tyrocity.com/wp-content/uploads/Velocity-of-sound-in-air-or-gas1.png)

Therefore the velocity of sound on the air or gas.

μ = √P/S

 

This is the Newton’s formula for the velocity of sound in air (or gas).

 

At NTP,

P = 1.01 × 105 N/M2

S = 1.29 Kg/m3

μ = 1.01 × 105 / (1.29) = 281 m/s

Experimentally, velocity of the sound in the air is about 332ms at NTP. This means the velocity of the sound given by Newton’s formula did not agree with experimental value. Therefore, there must be something wrong in Newton’s formula which is called by Laplace.

We aren't talking about aircraft. We are talking about rockets.
They behave with fundamentally different principles.
An aircraft engine takes in air from the atmosphere to burn. Without that air there, it can't fly.
They also use airflow over the wings to generate lift. Without that air there, it can't fly.

Rockets do not.
They bring all the oxidant they need with them.

So 2740-2740 = 0 m/s = 0 miles per HOUR
Again, all you are doing is making up numbers.

If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.
Pure fantasy.
You have provided absolutely no basis for this claim.

Again, my very simple question proves that to be pure bovine excrement.

Stop just repeating the same lie.
It wont magically make it true.
Why should it need to go straight up away from the centre of gravity?
This makes no sense at all and you are yet to justify it in any way.

Repeating the same lie and ignoring all the refutations of it just shows you do not care about the truth and know your position is pure BS.

Going straight up will not lead to an orbit. It will lead to you falling back down and smashing into Earth. You need to go sideways to orbit.


[zig-zag]
Like I said, if you want to discuss your repeatedly refuted zigzag argument, go back to one of the threads it has already been refuted in and ask there, or make a new thread.

Problems with formulas
What do these formulas have to do with anything?
Especially as they literally make no sense. You start with p=0.

Now, like I said, care to answer the question which conclusively shows that rockets do work in a vacuum?
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Newton himself knew of this discrepancy:
Quote from: Bernard S. Finn
Laplace and the Speed of Sound (https://www3.nd.edu/~powers/ame.20231/finn1964.pdf)
FOR A CENTURY and a quarter after Isaac Newton initially posed the problem in the Principia, there was a very apparent discrepancy of almost 20 per cent between theoretical and experimental values of the
speed of sound.
And it wasn't until 1802 that Laplace resolved the dilemma. Nut one can hardly blame Newton because the experiments of J. L. Gay-Lussac etc had not been performed until long after Newton's death!

None of that has the slightest relevance to an Ariana 5 rocket flying in a vacuum and you've never shown that "no rocket can fly in a vacuum".

There is no practical limit to how fast the exhaust as can move in a vacuum.
Your quote seems be only a limit on how fast the exhaust gases can disperse. It other words the gasses do instantly disperse into the "infinite vacuum".
That exhaust gas has been sent far from the Ariana 5 by the and the Ariana 5 is long gone.

The "escape velocity" of an unpowered object with respect to a massive body is the speed that the object needs to be traveling at in order to escape the gravitational field of the body from its current distance from the body center of mass.

It is independent of the object mass or direction of movement (and therefore is not truly a 'velocity' at all).
The "current distance from the body center of mass" is only needed to calculate the speed necessary.

It is "independent of the . . . direction of movement" and the diagram "(note: direction not matter)"

Yes, the distance.
This distance determines the velocity required.
Notice how nowhere does it say the velocity must be directed away from the centre of mass?
Notice how instead it says that direction does not matter (i.e. it is independent from the direction of movement)?

If you want to claim that it requires it to go directly away from the object, please either show the derivation to show that it MUST be going directly away, and/or provide a citation that clearly states it MUST be going directly away.

In addition, please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 100 000 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away.
Do you think it will magically be held to Earth?

Exhaust velocity of Ariana 5 rocket (at sea level) : 2749 m/s

So 2740-2740 = 0 m/s = 0 miles per HOUR
If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.
So, I really can run faster than Ariana 5 rocket can fly in a Vacuum, since no rocket can fly in a vacuum, whatsoever!
There is no practical limit to how fast the exhaust as can move in a vacuum.
If you really know what you are saying, then you have to be able to expand on this a little bit...I would say that there is no practical limit to how fast the exhaust can move in a vacuum because no exhaust can move so fast as gas is expanding in a vacuum...If that was your point then you hit the nail on the head...

It other words the gasses do instantly disperse into the "infinite vacuum".
That exhaust gas has been sent far from the Ariana 5 by the and the Ariana 5 is long gone.

Only in your wild imagination which is obviously too wild for grasping very simple concepts so not that you can't see the wood for the trees, you actually can't see the tree for the wood! (In croatian we use both versions in everyday speech, and it seems to me that in english there is only one version of this proverb)..


Quote
The escape velocity from Earth is about 11.186 km/s NOT your 8km/s but the orbital velocity at 200 km is 7784 m/s - close to your figure.

But to even get into a 200 km orbit from the ground a rocket must overcome gravity and air-resistance till it leaves the atmosphere.
Without more details that cannot be calculated but to get to LEO requires approximately the equivalent of an extra 2.6 km/s velocity.

So we'll see if your rocket might even get to LEO.

So here you want to achieve a (https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/28563b5d468baab12a7d33b49cac197c2c1ed885) of 7784 + 2600 = 10,384 m/s.
Quote
Yes, but 7784 m/s is the orbital velocity at 200 km, however contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going 7 miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! So, alleged orbital velocity (even if it were real phenomena, and i doubt it, since i know that the earth is stationary) would still be of no use due to the wrong direction of motion, which is perpendicular wrt needed/demanding direction (away from the center of gravity)!!!

The escape velocity does not have to be directly away from centre of the earth. It can and usually is a tangential velocity.
And "Note that a powered object may escape the gravity of a body at any velocity desired."
Read again,
It is independent of the object mass direction of movement."

Yes, a lot of contradictions, i can write a book 1000 pages thick by quoting contradictory claims of today's scientists (not only of famous astronutts).

For example : they claim that directional gyro is rigid in space, and then they claim that directional gyro drifts 15 degrees per hour even if an airplane doesn't move at all (on a runway) while waiting permission to take off... Only they can't explain how they can use such an instrument for that (directional-compass) purpose (in the first place) if it drifts 15 degrees per hour even when an airplane is at rest.

Then they cut another branch on which they stand :

Wolfie6020 (australian commercial pilot) recently uploaded a video in which he explains how directional gyros are calibrated for certain latitudes, only he failed to explain how airplanes can rely on such calibrated gyros when flying towards north or towards south...lol

So, i repeat these words once again (regarding ZIGZAG problem) :

It means that you have to take into consideration "directional gyro problem," that is to say : If directional gyro maintains rigidity in space, then you have to explain to us : how come that we can't simply direct our gyro towards the sun (or even better - towards some fixed star) so that we can observe rotational motion of the earth as it drifts below our space-rigid-gyro which would constantly (if HC theory were true description of our reality) point towards the sun/fixed star, thus providing for us (for all intents and purposes) our desired ZIGZAG motion, that is to say : mimicking motion of the observer at the edge of the Arctic circle in a straight line, although he is actually moving circularly?

In addition, please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 100 000 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away.
Do you think it will magically be held to Earth?

In addition, please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 11 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away from the center of the earth.

Nothing would happen, even if that object was already 400 km above the surface of the earth :

6800 km^2 = 46 240 000
11 km^2 = 121

sqrt. 46 240 121 = 6800,008897

So, our 11 km/s moving object in a direction perpendicular to directly away from the center of the earth would move 8,897 m/s directly away from the center of the earth.

8,897 m/s = 32 km/h

Footspeed record was 44.72 km/h (27.8 mph), measured between meter 60 and meter 80 of the 100 meters sprint of the World Championships in Berlin on 16 August 2009 by Usain Bolt. (Bolt's average speed over the course of this race was 37.58 km/h or 23.35 mph.)

I would like to see a man made object that flies at that speed (100 000 km/s)...lol

Just to put it into broader perspective :

Concorde top speed = 2450 km/h = Mach 2
SR-71 Blackbird top speed = 3530 km/h = Mach 2,9
X-15 top speed = 7350 km/h = Mach 6

Geostationary satellites - ALLEGED speed = 9420 km/h = Mach 7,68
ISS ALLEGED speed = 7,66 km/s = 27576 km/h = Mach 22,5 which is 3,75 times faster than X-15's top speed

Escape Velocity of the Earth = 11,18 km/s = 40248 km/h = Mach 32,8 which is 5,47 times faster than X-15's top speed

Now, how about your 1000 km/s = 3 600 000 km/h = Mach 2938,77 which is 490 times faster than X-15's top speed...

So, Jack what do you think would happen to an object at 400 km altitude which was initially travelling at a velocity of 1000 km/s, initially in a direction perpendicular to "down"?

Or better to ask much cleverer question : How do you think you could ever attain such ludicrous?

To fit with   the data he observed   in 1929, Hubble   figured that his “H” constant, which   
was the proportion between the speed of the galaxy compared to its distance away from us,   
would have to be 100   kilometers   per second per megaparsec.
Thus, if a galaxy was   said   to be 10 megaparsecs away from us, Hubble’s Law held that it must recede with  a velocity of 1000  kilometers  per second.
If  the  galaxy were a gigaparsec from    us which is 1000 megaparsecs,   it must recede with a   velocity of   100,000 kilometers per second. So, from now on let's call this speed Jack's velocity!!! lol

100 000 km/s = 360 000 000 km/s = Mach 297877,551 = 48979 times faster than X-15's top speed

The North American X-15 was a hypersonic rocket-powered aircraft operated by the United States Air Force and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration as part of the X-plane series of experimental aircraft. The X-15 set speed and altitude records in the 1960s, reaching the edge of outer space and returning with valuable data used in aircraft and spacecraft design. The X-15's official world record for the highest speed ever recorded by a manned, powered aircraft, set in October 1967 when William J. Knight flew at Mach 6.70 at 102,100 feet (31,120 m), a speed of 4,520 miles per hour (7,274 km/h; 2,021 m/s), has remained unbroken as of 2019.

Post by: JackBlack on August 12, 2019, 04:52:07 AM
If you really know what you are saying, then you have to be able to expand on this a little bit
It is quite simple:
Without other particles to collide into there is nothing to stop the gas.
As such if you increase the impulse acting on the gas you will increase its velocity.
The velocity of gas in a vacuum is dependent upon what put it there.
If it was put there by gas at 1 yPa being released then it will travel quite slowly.
If instead it was the result of gas at 1 YPa being released, it will move quite quickly.
If it was released as a tiny 1 ym^3, then it would go quite slowly.
If it was released as a massive 1 Ym^3 then it would go quite quickly.

This is all based upon how much pressure is exerted on it and how long it will be exerted for.
That determines how quickly it accelerates and how for how long.

If you wish to claim there is some magical limit on the velocity of gas in a vacuum you will have to expand on it, a lot, to justify such a claim.

Yes, a lot of contradictions
The only contradicts are between reality and the nonsense you are claiming.

No where in the source (or any source I can find) does it claim that you MUST be heading directly away from the centre of mass to be able to achieve orbit or to escape.
Instead, all we have is your baseless claim.

regarding ZIGZAG problem
Again, go put them in the zig-zag thread. They don't belong here.

In addition, please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 100 000 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away.
Do you think it will magically be held to Earth?
I notice you still avoid a nice simple question.
Why is that?

In addition, please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 11 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away from the center of the earth.
Nothing would happen, even if that object was already 400 km above the surface of the earth :
6800 km^2 = 46 240 000
11 km^2 = 121
sqrt. 46 240 121 = 6800,008897
So, our 11 km/s moving object in a direction perpendicular to directly away from the center of the earth would move 8,897 m/s directly away from the center of the earth.
Good job contradicting yourself.
Which is it? Will nothing happen or not?

I also notice you only bother with 1 s, and ignore the effects of gravity.
Why such a short time period?
Even for an object going directly away, the change in distance is negligible.
Lets do something similar? I'll even be nice and throw in the extra ~30 km.
What happens after 1 hour?
Well, 11 km/s is 39600 km/hr.
That means it will have moved to ~ 38 800 km away from the centre of Earth, or roughly 38 400 km further than it originally was.
That means the distance from the centre would be growing at a rate of 10.7 km/s.
The longer you let that go on for the closer it will get to 11 km/s.

The more accurate way is to integrate it properly, but I can't be bothered. I will do the next best thing and do it stepwise.
So, we work in 1 s steps (you seemed fine doing that before).
So as an example, after 1 second it will have moved from a position of 0,-6771 to a position of 11,-6771. It will have been accelerated by Earth's gravity and thus the velocity will have changed from 11,0 to 11,0.0087.
We then work from them and go to the next step, and so on.
Doing this for an hour we end up at 22289, 9906, travelling at a velocity of 3.48, 4.89 or 6 km/s at an angle of 54.5 degrees.
After 2 hours we reach 32251, 26081 travelling at a velocity of 2.29, 4.17 or 4.75 km/s at an angle of 61 degrees.

After ~8.25 hours (arbitrary from how far down I copied the steps in excel), we get this:
(https://i.imgur.com/xwzC7sm.png)
If we compare it to something go directly away (but with the angle it ends on), we get this:
(https://i.imgur.com/nU6l46s.png)
The one going directly away is further from the centre (128 vs 121 Gm), and going slower (3 vs 3.15 km/s).

As a comparison, this is what it looks like for an initial velocity of 8 km/s:
(https://i.imgur.com/1NOors3.png)

It isn't perfect due to the steps used, but it shows the difference quite well.

So, Jack what do you think
As shown with other questions I already know. If you are happy to accept my answer, then stop spouting the same BS.
It would enter a hyperbolic orbit and escape Earth's gravity well.

Beware, Super-Jack is pissed off!!!
No, I am just sick of you repeating the same lies again and again and refusing to even attempt to address the question.
These 2 simple questions destroy your positions.

Now care to try and honestly and rationally answer the questions, or just admit you have been lying and you know that rockets work in a vacuum and you don't need to go directly away (at least initially) to escape a gravity well.

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 100 000 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away.
Do you think it will magically be held to Earth?

Exhaust velocity of Ariana 5 rocket (at sea level) : 2749 m/s

So 2740-2740 = 0 m/s = 0 miles per HOUR
If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.
So, I really can run faster than Ariana 5 rocket can fly in a Vacuum, since no rocket can fly in a vacuum, whatsoever!
There is no practical limit to how fast the exhaust as can move in a vacuum.
If you really know what you are saying, then you have to be able to expand on this a little bit.
Sure, happy to oblige ;). For a start the lower the mass of each particle of the exhaust stream the higher it's velocity can be.

Quote from: NASA Glenn Research Center
Ion Propulsion: Farther, Faster, Cheaper (https://www.nasa.gov/centers/glenn/technology/Ion_Propulsion1.html)
Ion thrusters, the propulsion of choice for science fiction writers have become the propulsion of choice for scientists and engineers at NASA. The ion propulsion system's efficient use of fuel and electrical power enable modern spacecraft to travel farther, faster and cheaper than any other propulsion technology currently available. Chemical rockets have demonstrated fuel efficiencies up to 35 percent, but ion thrusters have demonstrated fuel efficiencies over 90 percent. Currently, ion thrusters are used to keep communication satellites in the proper position relative to Earth and for the main propulsion on deep space probes. Several thrusters can be used on a spacecraft, but they are often used just one at a time. Spacecraft powered by these thrusters can reach speeds up to 90,000 meters per second (over 200,000 mph). In comparison, the Space Shuttles can reach speeds around 18,000 mph.

The trade-off for the high top speeds of ion thrusters is low thrust (or low acceleration). Current ion thrusters can provide only 0.5 newtons (or 0.1 pounds) of thrust, which is equivalent to the force you would feel by holding 10 U.S. quarters in your hand. These thrusters must be used in a vacuum to operate at the available power levels, and they cannot be used to put spacecraft in space because large amounts of thrust are needed to escape Earth's gravity and atmosphere.
Now according to the rocket thrust equation, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1), the thrust per unit mass of propellant ie almost propertional to the exhaust velocity.
Hence ion thrusters can achieve far more efficient use of the limited propellant mass.

Even now, ion thrusters are used in some geostationary satellites for station keeping.
For example:
Quote
The first satellite powered entirely by ion engines is online. (https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/214206-the-first-satellite-powered-entirely-by-ion-engines-is-online)
Getting a satellite into orbit is only the first step in making it a useful piece of equipment. It also needs to arrive in the correct orbit and stay there, known as station-keeping. In the past this was accomplished with chemical propulsion, but more modern satellites have relied upon a mix of chemical and electric propulsion. Now Boeing has announced the first all-electric ion propulsion satellite is fully operational.

The satellite in question doesn’t have a snappy name — it’s a communications satellite called ABS-3A 702SP. It was launched last March aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. It has just recently been handed over to its owner, Bermuda-based telecommunications company ABS. Because ABS-3A is a communications satellite, it needs to remain in a geosynchronous orbit. Thus, station-keeping is essential. When it can no longer maintain its orbit, it will cease being useful. Ion thrusters make a lot of sense in this scenario.
And that's just the start.

And spacecraft heading for almost any mission, be it to a geostationary orbit, the moon, other planets or further, are placed in a near circular low earth orbit first and then accelerated tangentially.

Why does escape velocity not depend on the angle of projection? (https://www.quora.com/Why-does-escape-velocity-not-depend-on-the-angle-of-projection)
Escape velocity does not depend on the angle of projection because it is not a vector. Itis an expression of the relationship between kinetic energy and potential energy — theseare not vectors. It's just like how it takes the same amount of work to climb to a certain height no matter what path you take.

@Super-Jack

So, after 8 hours or so, you finally end up going directly away from the center of the earth??? lol

THE PROBLEM No 1 : What kind of a rocket can provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Everything looks nice in NASA cartoons, however, NASA have been caught in lie(s) so many times it isn't even funny any more...

1. Neil De Grass Tyson explains that at the edge of an atmosphere you can see stars even with the sun in the sky, doesn't it mean that when the sun is not in the sky then the view of the stars is much more spectacular (the stars are much brighter) then here on the earth? Following this logic i suppose that in space you wouldn't even have to use long exposure technique in order to catch the stars while taking the photo of the night sky. ACCOMPANYING VIDEO :

According to Neil De Grass Tyson when you get at the edge of the atmosphere all of a sudden the view becomes totally spectacular. So, as i already pointed out : following his (Neil De Grass Tyson) logic stars wouldn't be just a little brighter, they would be much brighter.

Michael Collins contradicting himself : During famous Apollo 11 conference he claimed that he wasn't able to see *ANY* star from the lunar orbit...However in his book he claims that he was very able to observe countless stars from earth' orbit...How about that??? You see, this is an example where the same person asserts two totally contradictory claims (in two different occasions).

What could disable Michael Collins to see the stars from the lunar orbit? If there was anything that could obscure the stars while he was in lunar orbit, that very same reason (an obstacle) would disable him to see the stars TO EVEN A GREATER EXTENT while he was in earth's orbit since according to NeilDeGrass Tyson the only reason why we can't see the stars from the earth (during the day) is the presence of earth's atmosphere which is a glow with scattered light from the sun!!! If you take away the atmosphere, the sun will still be there but the sky goes dark! That is what folks get when they get to the edge of the atmosphere, the atmosphere is no longer between you and the rest of the universe and the stars would reveal themselves just as they would at night! Plain and simple!!!

2. YOU ONLY NEED TO PROVE ONE OF THEM TO BE THE SAME PERSON TO PROVE THE THEORY : LUNACY - PART 2 :

3. When the first crew who landed on the moon did a world tour ,they presented the Dutch premier with a piece of moon rock ,,,when he died a few years ago the university of Utrecht in Holland did some experiments on what they thought was moon rock ,,and it was found to be worthless petrified wood ,,?

5. Set of excerpts of "docking" : You must be a genuine idiot so to be unable to recognize obvious fakery in this cheap animation : once again : 100% proof moon landing Hoax in a 1 minute clip :

6. In 60 years of all of NASA or any other organizations outer space video footage... there does not exist a single video clip of someone panning the camera 360 degrees!!! HOW COME???

7.  Does anybody have a link to a rocket launch with rear facing cameras, where the rocket continues out into space eventually showing the whole globe????

8. How about live streaming of the earth by using camera mounted on a geostationary satellite?
---The alleged speed of a geostationary satellite is about 10 000 km/h (height = 37 000 km)
---The alleged speed of ISS is about 28 000 km/h (height = 400 km)

9. How high must one get before the atmospheric rotation does not exist? For if all rotates it must have to stop somewhere. I figure at mt Everest you have one third less air at top so wouldn't that mean at 100,000 feet, if mt Everest is at 28000 ft, no air or no atmosphere? So why not simple make airplanes outfitted for 110000 ft go up and then come down and let the earth spin underneath to arrive at ur destination. Well, how about numerous footages (countless of which are available on youtube) taken by cameras (attached to a baskets of a balloons that can go as high as 125 000 feet) in which we can clearly see perfectly still earth underneath??? U know why they don't, because it's all Bullshit???

Now, something very interesting regarding the point 9 :

Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary and that an aether rotates 24h/day around motionless earth.
However, aether's rotation is subtle, that is to say, we can detect that with interferometer kind of experiments (MMX, SAGNAC, MGP, ring-laser gyros, etc...), but aether's rotation doesn't produce such an effect which could be detected with directional gyros (heading indicators). However, if earth rotated heading indicators would indicate (detect) that motion. Not only that, your HC friends claim that mechanical heading indicators indeed detect earth's motion. But you as a pilot very well know that it is a blatant lie. They can claim whatever they want, but it doesn't matter what they claim, the only thing that matters is IS WHAT THEY CLAIM TRUE OR NOT, isn't that so??? Now, if earth rotated then mechanical heading indicators would detect earth's motion while we firmly stand on the rigid earth, and fly within earth's atmosphere, but that ability (of mechanical heading indicators) of detection of motion of the earth (and atmosphere) would come to a stop at higher altitudes (beyond earth's atmosphere). Where is (at what altitude) that boundary?

Now, even within geocentric scenario we would have the problem with that boundary, because unlike in HC scenario, within which going beyond that boundary means entering motionless space, within GC scenario, going beyond that boundary means entering *MECHANICALLY* (NOT AETHERLY) MOVING SPACE!!!

10. Within HC model geostationary satellites (at 37 000 km distance) are very far away from the last frontier of earth's atmosphere, and despite that their orbital speed is perfectly synchronized with the speed of earth's rotation. Isn't that too good to be true?

Within GC model geostationary satellites are again at 37 000 km distance and have to be motionless in the same way as the earth is motionless. I can show you how famous geocentrist Robert Sungenis explains the mechanics of that motionless geostationary satellites. He uses assumption of mechanical motion of space and then introduce roulette wheel and a ball example to illustrate how a ball (satellite) can stay fixed in space above certain point above the earth by the force of moving roulette wheel (rotating shell of the universe)...

I don't claim geostationary satellites don't exist for sure but since an explanation of Robert Sungenis is pretty odd, and since i know for sure that the earth is at rest (which means that HC explanation for geostationary satellites is 100 % fraudulent), then i still choose to remain suspicious about the very existence of geostationary satellites...

11. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING AS FAKE AS THIS :


@ Rabinoz, you are eager to see some contradictory statements? Let me show you just a few of them :

It is important to note that much of the resistance to what we call the Copernican Revolution derived from the fact that for some time it left many important questions unanswered - in particular, how the planets and stars moved and cohered without the celestial spheres. One central insight was the switch from Aristotles's belief in projectile motion, in which a moving object must be acted upon directly to keep moving, to the modern concept of INERTIA, in which a moving object keeps moving unless stopped by wind drag or something else.

 A related insight also contrary to Aristotle was Newton's MATHEMATICAL understanding of GRAVITY, which allowed bodies to act on one another from a distance without direct contact. In a letter to Dr. Bentley. Feb. 25th, 1692, Newton says ;— “ That gravitation should be innate and inherent in matter, so that one body can act upon another at a distance — is to me SO GREAT AN ABSURDITY, that I believe no man who has, in philosophical matters, a competent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it .” Yet many have fallen into this “great absurdity.” Such men therefore—according to Newton — have not "a competent faculty of thinking” in philosophical matters. I am happy to be in agreement with Sir Isaac on this important point. Sir Robert Ball says: — “The law of gravitation ... underlies the whole of Astronomy.” (Story of the Heavens, p. 122). It does not speak very well for the Astronomy, if it is founded on an acknowledged “great absurdity.” According to Newton's way of thinking, besides the ordinary actions of physical laws, God acted by sustaining the motion of celestial spheres, and by setting up the initial orbits of the planets and later preventing them from disintegrating. Newton didn't hesitate to appeal to extraordinary acts of God to explain features of the natural world.

 Nevertheless, many of Newton's successors thought Newton was suggesting that God had to "correct" his own regular actions. They preferred instead the notion of God manifesting his powers not with irregular actions in nature but strictly by establishing regular "laws" that governed the entire cosmos.

Here is what Newton said in Proposition 43:

In order for the Earth to be at rest in the center of the system of the Sun, Planets, and Comets, there is required both universal gravity and another force in addition that acts on all bodies equally according to the quantity of matter in each of them and is equal and opposite to the accelerative gravity with which the Earth tends to the Sun... Since this force is equal and opposite to its gravity toward the Sun, the Earth can truly remain in equilibrium between these two forces and be at rest.  And thus celestial bodies can move around the Earth at rest,as in the Tychonic system.

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641


Geocentricity detractors often appeal to the coriolis effect. It is, like the rest of the appeals, vain. The observations would be the same geocentrically or heliocentrically. Dr. Bouw covers it in detail in his books and explains how the coriolis *effect* becomes an actual coriolis *force* under a geocentric setup (and centrifugal force becomes centrifugal effect).

Here are some more quotes on the matter from some esteemed scientists:

The Coriolis effect arises, equally, whether the Earth rotates or the cosmos rotates. - Rick DeLano

"One need not view the existence of such centrifugal forces as originating from the motion of K [e.g.-the Earth]; one could just as well account for them as resulting from the average rotational effect of distant, detectable masses as evidenced in the vicinity of K, whereby K is treated as being at rest. - Albert Einstein, quoted in Hans Thirring, "On the Effect of Distant Rotating Masses in Einstein's Theory of Gravitation", Physikalische Zeitschrift 22, 29, 1921

"If one rotates the shell relative to the fixed stars about an axis going through its center, a Coriolis force arises in the interior of the shell, *that is, the plane of a Foucault pendulum is dragged around*" - Albert Einstein, cited in "Gravitation", Misner Thorne and Wheeler pp. 544-545.

"...Thus we may return to Ptolemy's point of view of a 'motionless earth'...One has to show that the transformed metric can be regarded as produced according to Einstein's field equations, by distant rotating masses. This has been done by Thirring. He calculated a field due to a rotating, hollow, thick-walled sphere and proved that inside the cavity it behaved as though there were centrifugal and other inertial forces usually attributed to absolute space. Thus from Einstein's point of view, Ptolemy and Corpenicus are equally right." - Max Born, "Einstein's Theory of Relativity", Dover Publications, 1962, pp 344 & 345

Why Don't More Scientists reject the heliocentric theory?

Some scientists admit the truth in their own words. Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz (of the Lorentz translation equations, foundation of the General Theory of Relativity) noted that:

"Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest…"

His great contemporary Henri Poincare confessed:

"A great deal of research has been carried out concerning the influence of the Earth’s movement. The results were always negative..."

Lincoln Barnett agrees:

“No physical experiment ever proved that the Earth actually is in motion.”

And one of the chief participants in the experiment that bears his name (Albert A. Michelson), stunned by the results that went counter to his own heliocentric reflex:

“This conclusion directly contradicts the explanation… which presupposes that the Earth moves.”


Astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle says:

“Today we cannot say that the Copernican theory is “right” and the Ptolemaic theory is “wrong” in any meaningful sense (…) Science today is locked into paradigms. Every avenue is blocked by beliefs that are wrong, and if you try to get anything published in a journal today, you will run up against a paradigm, and the editors will turn you down.”

In further startling evidence that the scientific community is stifling dissenting views, Alexander von Humboldt admitted:

“I have known too, for a long time that we have no argument for the Copernican system, but I shall never dare to be the first to attack it. Don't rush into the wasps' nest. You will bring upon yourself the scorn of the thoughtless multitude… to come forth as the first against opinions, which the world has become fond of - I don't feel the courage.”

In other words, the notion that the earth revolves around the sun having become dogma, its denial spells automatic excommunication from the scientific establishment. As for the unthinking masses, a lie need only be systematized in textbooks to pass for truth.

The circumstances surrounding Hubble’s interpretation of the redshift are intriguing. Hubble worked with Milton Humason, but only Hubble’s name is associated with the redshift/expansion theory. The primary reason is that Humason was very reluctant to provide evidence for an expanding universe. The scientific community, based on Einstein’s reworked mathematical formulas (courtesy of de Sitter and Friedmann), had already decided that the universe was expanding, but they were missing observational evidence. Consequently, the science community was predisposed to interpret redshift as a Doppler phenomenon wherein galaxies are understood to be moving away at great speeds from the observer.2 This is in the face of the fact that there was no proof for a connection between receding galaxies and redshift, or that galaxies are receding at all, or that redshift is to be interpreted as a Doppler shift. In a paper published in 1931 Humason wrote:

It is not at all certain that the large redshifts observed in the spectra are to be interpreted as a Doppler effect but, for convenience, they are interpreted in terms of velocity and referred to as apparent velocities.

Interestingly enough, regardless of what the science establishment now associates exclusively with Edwin Hubble, the fact remains that even Hubble never fully committed himself to the now popular interpretation. Hubble was quite aware of what the science community desired, but maintained his distance. He writes:

This explanation interprets redshifts as Doppler effects, that is to say, as velocity‐shifts, indicating actual motion of recession. It may be stated with some confidence that redshifts are velocity‐shifts or else they represent some hitherto unrecognized principle  in  physics....  Meanwhile,  redshifts  may  be  expressed  on a scale of velocities as a matter of convenience. They behave as velocity‐shifts behave and they are very simply represented on the same familiar scale, regardless of the ultimate interpretation. The term “apparent velocity” may be used in carefully considered statements, and the adjective always implied where it is omitted in general usage.

As we have noted in our earlier discussion of Hubble, he then came to the place where he knew ሺconsidering what he actually saw in his telescopeሻ that there were only two options left to him. He writes:

Thus the use of dimming corrections leads to a particular kind of universe, but one which most students are likely to reject as highly improbable. Furthermore, the strange features of this universe are merely the dimming corrections expressed in different terms. Omit the dimming factors, and the oddities vanish. We are left with the simple, even familiar concept of a sensibly infinite universe. All the difficulties are transferred to the interpretation of redshifts which cannot then be the familiar velocity shifts....Meanwhile, on the basis of the evidence now available, apparent discrepancies between theory and observation must be recognized. A choice is presented, as once before in the days of Copernicus, between a strangely small, finite universe and a sensibly infinite universe plus a new principle of nature.[/color]

Post by: markjo on August 12, 2019, 07:08:49 AM
So, after 8 hours or so, you finally end up going directly away from the center of the earth??? lol

THE PROBLEM No 1 : What kind of a rocket can provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.
Yes, and once in orbit the thrust is no longer required.  That's pretty much the whole point of going to orbit.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.
Actually, about 90% or so of a rocket's mass is propellant.  However, the exhaust velocity has very little to do with forward velocity of the rocket.  It has more to do with the efficiency of the thrust produced (A.K.A. specific impulse (https://www.scienceabc.com/pure-sciences/specific-impulse-definition-formula-and-units.html)).

Seriously, you need to learn a lot more about how rockets work before you try to debunk them.

Yes, and once in orbit the thrust is no longer required.  That's pretty much the whole point of going to orbit.
It is no longer required? Really? So, then you are at loss of 3,5 km/s and you simply stay in Low earth's orbit, let alone that orbital speed itself is dubious concept having in mind everything that i wrote in the previous post.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s.

So, according to your ludicrous logic, exhaust velocity has very little to do even with the efficiency of the thrust produced, since efficiency of thrust produced has everything to do with forward velocity of the rocket.

Exhaust velocity of Ariana 5 rocket (at sea level) : 2749 m/s

Look at the velocity of a real Arianne 5 rocket in this video:
https://www.youtube.co/watch?v=nMFotrkgF-w

So, exhaust velocity is greater than rocket speed, which is in favor of my argument!

Since you need additional 3,5 km/s (on top of orbital speed) to leave low earth orbit (going directly away from the center of the earth), you can't even count on 2749 m/s (exhaust velocity of Ariana 5), all you can count on is about 2,3 km/s at best...

However :

1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

(https://i.postimg.cc/rwwsgQYy/VELOCITY-OF-GAS-EXPANSION-IN-A-VACUUM-XXX.jpg)


THE PROBLEM No 2 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

11. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING AS FAKE AS THIS :


The alleged moon landings are the only technological claim in the entire history of the world, such as the first automobile, airplane, or nuclear power, which was not far surpassed in capability 50 YEARS later, much less not even able to be duplicated by any nation on earth 50 YEARS later. The supposed moon landings are also the only time in history that such claimed expensive technology was deliberately destroyed afterwards (175 BILLION DOLLARS worth), only done so to hide the evidence of the fraud.

Seeing how it is IMPOSSIBLE for technology to go BACKWARDS and today NASA can only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon as was claimed 50 YEARS ago on the VERY FIRST attempt with 5 DECADES OLDER technology, the only remaining conclusion is that the 1969 claim was a federal government lie. It is that simple and that corrupt.

No, I didn't say any of that.

https://www.youtube.co/watch?v=nMFotrkgF-w

So, exhaust velocity is greater than rocket speed, which is in favor of my argument!
When the rocket is starting from zero, obviously the exhaust velocity is going to greater than the rocket speed.  That's shouldn't surprise anyone.

Since you need additional 3,5 km/s (on top of orbital speed) to leave low earth orbit (going directly away from the center of the earth), you can't even count on 2749 m/s (exhaust velocity of Ariana 5), all you can count on is about 2,3 km/s at best...
First of all, it's already been pointed out that escape velocity doesn't need to be directly away from the center of the earth.  Secondly, the first stage of the rocket won't be the stage that's propelling the payload out of orbit.

However :

1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.
Incorrect.  The exhaust gasses do most of their work inside the combustion chamber and exhaust nozzle.  What the gasses do after they leave the nozzle is of little concern.

Escape Velocity is taught in high school. It's in relation from the center of mass. I would suggest educating yourself on this matter by looking for several definitions online.
Good advice. You should follow it.
Yes, escape velocity is a function of distance to the centre of mass.
But the direction is not.
Do you understand the difference between distance and direction?
If not, I suggest you educate yourself on this very simple matter.

No, it still isn't going directly away.

THE PROBLEM No 1 : What kind of a rocket can provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses?
You mean the irrelevant strawman you put up to pretend there is a problem?
No where did I rely upon a rocket continually firing for 8.5 hours.
Instead, I had the object initially going at 11 km/s, after which it was carried by its own inertia and acted upon by gravity.
No additional thrust was required.
That is because it already had all the energy it needed.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust
You mean blatant lie.
You have provided absolutely no justification for the required increase in thrust.
You repeating the same lies wont make them true.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do:
And another blatant lie.
Do you have anything to actually back up your pathetic claim, or is all you have lie after lie after lie?

You are yet to demonstrate any problem with how rockets work.

Stop just repeating the same BS and start dealing with the issues raised. Every time you avoid them and bring up the same refuted BS you just show everyone how little you care about the truth.
Until you can honestly and rationally deal with these issues you have nothing.

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 100 000 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away.
Do you think it will magically be held to Earth?

An author of a text above is mr Wolfgang Smith. Smith graduated in 1948 from Cornell University with a B.A. in Philosophy, Physics and Mathematics. Two years later he obtained his M.S. in Physics from Purdue University and, some time later, a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Columbia University.

He worked as a physicist in Bell Aircraft corporation, researching aerodynamics and the problem of atmospheric reentry.[1] He was a mathematics professor at MIT, UCLA and Oregon State University, doing research in the field of differential geometry and publishing in academic journals such as the Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Journal of Mathematics, and others. He retired from academic life in 1992.

In parallel with his academic duties, he developed and still develops philosophical inquiries in the fields of metaphysics and the philosophy of science, publishing in specialized journals such as The Thomist and Sophia: The Journal of Traditional Studies.

You can here mr Smith's elaboration on this extremely interesting topic in this video :

COPERNICAN PRINCIPLE DESTROYED - part 2 :

@Super-Jack

So, after 8 hours or so, you finally end up going directly away from the center of the earth??? lol
Not Super-Jack here just plain old RABinOZ to put you straight in case JackBlack is too busy doing real work.

Once again you have proven your complete inability to read and comprehend what was written.
Of course, you always have been one to try to deceive by using known "Photoshopped" photos so a little "inability to read" is understandable.

But JackBlack did not ever say "going directly away from the center of the earth"! Read it over-and-over-again until you can comprehend the simple words!
Yes, the distance.
This distance determines the velocity required.
Notice how nowhere does it say the velocity must be directed away from the centre of mass?
Notice how instead it says that direction does not matter (i.e. it is independent from the direction of movement)?

THE PROBLEM No 1 : What kind of a rocket can provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.
Why would any such chemical high thrust rocket have to fly "for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses?" That's a ridiculous question.

In a 200 km LEO the rocket is already travelling at 7.784 km/s and only needs to reach 11.016 km/sec (the escape velocity at 200 km).
That's an 3.232 km/sec extra so where do you get this "for 8,25 hours continually" from?
Orbital velocities are from Satsig Delta V calculator for LEO/MEO/GEO orbit injection (http://www.satsig.net/orbit-research/delta-v-geo-injection-calculator.htm) and escape velocities are from: CalcTool Escape velocity calculated from mass and distance. (http://www.calctool.org/CALC/phys/astronomy/escape_velocity)

The effective ΔV to reach LEO would have been be about 10.384‬ km/sec so why would you suggest this "8,25 hours" to gain an extra ΔV 3.401 km/sec.
(An expert in "orbital mechanics" might like to check my figures.}

Quote from: cikljamas
THE PROBLEM No 2 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity
No, it would NOT! Once achieving escape velocity no extra thrust is needed! That is from the definition of escape velocity.

Quote from: cikljamas
which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.
I doubt that the public believes that gravity "decreases exponentially with altitude".
Gravity decreases as the inverse square of the distance from the centre of the earth as in Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:(https://www.dropbox.com/s/ks0kf5ov34q2u0h/Newton%27s%20Law%20of%20Universal%20Gravitation.png?dl=1)

Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.
As I've asked before, "Are you totally incapable of learning!" We've been over this numerous times!
A rocket engine might be a little below maximum efficiency in a vacuum but its thrust in a vacuum will always be greater than at sea-level.
Then an engine designed for use in a vacuum has much more thrust than a comparable engine for use at sea-level.
The second and third stages of rockets invariably use vacuum engines.

For example, each SpaceX Merlin 1 D atmospheric engine has a thrust of 654 kN at sea-level and 716 kN in a vacuum but the Merlin 1 D vacuum engine has a thrust of 934 kN (only in a vacuum).

Quote from: cikljamas
THE PROBLEM No 3 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.
Where did you dig that up from? Rockets do "move due to 'recoil action/reaction' " but do not expel all their fuel at once. A machine gun does not expel its full load all at once either!
So it would seem that your PROBLEMs No 1-3 do not exist other than in your imagination!

No, I don't need to get over your fake facts.
Spouting more and more lies while going off on a tangent wont help you.
You have already brought up loads of failed arguments to try and support GC and had them all refuted.
This thread is discussing rockets, not GC.
If you want to discuss more failed arguments for GC feel free to start a new thread or go back to an existing one.

You need to deal with the questions I have raised if you want any hope of defending your claims.
Otherwise, the questions leave your claims completely destroyed.

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Please explain what you think would happen to an object going at 100 000 km/s in a direction perpendicular to directly away.
Do you think it will magically be held to Earth?

Geocentrism and Flat are not the same.
Geocentric model puts spherical Earth to the center.

Flat model - (abandoned as obsolete around 600 B.C.)
Earth is flat, at the bottom, water is around it, dome is above, stars are fireflies on it.
(Some fiction literature from Middle Age depicts them as little holes in the "dome velvet".)

Geocentric model - (from 600 B.C., obsolete since 1600 A.D.; Biblical model)
Earth is a ball in the center of heavens, everything on it tends to that center compressing into sphere.
Several concentric crystal spheres around the earth carry own set of celestial bodies each.
First 26 spheres were hypothesized, then 33, then more.
Describes star navigation, astronomy and astrology better than the Flat model.

Heliocentric model - (in use since 1600 A.D.)
Earth is a planet as any other planet in the Solar system, revolves around Sun, spins, and Moon revolves arond it.
Describes and predicts astronomical events more accurate and with much less calculations than Geocentrism.
Allowed Space exploration and orbits utilization.

Macarios, feel free to answer these few easy questions :

The earth and the atmosphere are both spinning at the same rate (according to the heliocentric model) with high speeds at the equator and lesser speeds towards the poles.

To skim the Earth’s atmosphere in orbit, your spacecraft has to travel at least as fast as 7.8 km/s, or about 17,500 mph. The Earth itself, with its atmosphere, is spinning eastward below you, at around 1,000 mph. So, you can reduce your re-entry speed by orbiting in the same direction that the Earth spins. However, that only helps a bit. Your spacecraft still has to travel at 16,500 mph relative to our atmosphere to stay in orbit.

1. How ISS gained (and maintains) it's incredible orbital velocity (7,66 km/s = 27 600 km/h)???

2. How Space Shuttle gained it's incredible orbital velocity (7,66 km/s)??? 

3. Where does the space shuttle reenters earth’s atmosphere and is the space shuttle following the spin of the earth? If not wouldn’t it be impossible to reenter the earth due to the fact that the atmosphere would hit the shuttle with the strength of a tornado that blows 26 000 km/h (which would be the difference between Space Shuttle's orbital velocity and rotational velocity of earth's atmosphere?

(https://i.postimg.cc/qqzGPZ2C/HURRICANE-SPEEDS.jpg)

So, Space Shuttle had to sustained strength of a hurricane which blows 85 times faster than the fastest winds ever recorded on earth?

Hundreds of miles up, it is to all intents and purposes a hard vacuum, but there are still enough air molecules to generate drag on a satellite, slowing it down until it plunges into the lower layers and burns up. But how far out does the atmosphere actually go?"

1) How does the International Space Station maintain its orbit?

Translational burns are thruster firings done by modules at the rear of the International Space Station (ISS), such as the Progress, ATV (pictured below), or if necessary the Service Module, itself.  In the past, the Space Shuttle Orbiter was also used to provide translational burns."

(https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-497c7841676af492b7fd5c5706b56cc5)

There’s a lot more info here:

https://www.quora.com/How-does-the-International-Space-Station-maintain-its-orbit-and-what-propellant-does-it-use

2) How Space Shuttle gained it's incredible orbital velocity (7,66 km/s)

Roughly the same way as the ISS, I suppose. Though it wasn’t in orbit for very long in comparison, obviously.

3) You make it seem like the Shuttle just simply vertically pierced through into the atmosphere like an arrow. Like kicking in the door to the atmosphere from space. It’s called reentry. The shuttle came in hot, figuratively and literally, starting reentry at about 17k mph. Then it does all the reentry stuff it needs to do slow down:

"The Shuttle flies at a high angle of attack during re-entry to generate drag to dissipate speed. It executes hypersonic "S-turn" maneuvers to kill off speed during re-entry. The lift of the wings is only important in the final flare maneuver at touchdown."

5) From the original article where you got that wiki quote:

"The thing is, when one moves into the realm of outer space, it's often less about where one thing ends and another begins and more where one set of forces ceases to dominate over the other. Case in point is the Earth's atmosphere. Being made up of gas, it tends to expand to fill whatever space its in, and space is one great, big infinite void. The Earth's gravity keeps most of the air around our planet where it should be, but the outer layers of the atmosphere don't stop so much as peter out."

Very far out ;D! Read a bit about it in: Rocket & Space Technology: ATMOSPHERIC MODELS (http://www.braeunig.us/space/atmmodel.htm).
Here's all the detail you need to work it out for yourself for up to 2000 km above the earth: STANDARD AND REFERENCE ATMOSPHERES. (http://www.braeunig.us/space/pdf/Atmosphere_120-2K.pdf)
At 200 km and 500 K the density would be about 8.13 x 10-11 kg/m3 and that's enough to bring satellites down in a fairly short time.
At 2000 km and 1600 K, however, the density would be about 1.08 x 10-15 kg/m3 and that's low enough for satellites to have a very long life.
The lifetime depends on the mass and fontal area but here are a few rough values:
Satellite Altitude   Lifetime

     400 km                1 year
     500 km              10 years

This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

If you threw away a mass the same as the rockets mass at 8km/s the rocket will have an equal and opposite reaction and move the other direction at 8km/s. There, problem solved.

1. Neil De Grass Tyson explains that at the edge of an atmosphere you can see stars even with the sun in the sky, doesn't it mean that when the sun is not in the sky then the view of the stars is much more spectacular (the stars are much brighter) then here on the earth? Following this logic i suppose that in space you wouldn't even have to use long exposure technique in order to catch the stars while taking the photo of the night sky. ACCOMPANYING VIDEO :

According to Neil De Grass Tyson when you get at the edge of the atmosphere all of a sudden the view becomes totally spectacular. So, as i already pointed out : following his (Neil De Grass Tyson) logic stars wouldn't be just a little brighter, they would be much brighter.

Michael Collins contradicting himself : During famous Apollo 11 conference he claimed that he wasn't able to see *ANY* star from the lunar orbit...However in his book he claims that he was very able to observe countless stars from earth' orbit...How about that??? You see, this is an example where the same person asserts two totally contradictory claims (in two different occasions).

What could disable Michael Collins to see the stars from the lunar orbit? If there was anything that could obscure the stars while he was in lunar orbit, that very same reason (an obstacle) would disable him to see the stars TO EVEN A GREATER EXTENT while he was in earth's orbit since according to NeilDeGrass Tyson the only reason why we can't see the stars from the earth (during the day) is the presence of earth's atmosphere which is a glow with scattered light from the sun!!! If you take away the atmosphere, the sun will still be there but the sky goes dark! That is what folks get when they get to the edge of the atmosphere, the atmosphere is no longer between you and the rest of the universe and the stars would reveal themselves just as they would at night! Plain and simple!!!

You can't see the stars in the day from the ground cos the sky is bright. So having something bright in your field of view means you can't see the stars. Something like, the Earth, or the Moon, or the lights inside the spacecraft. If you take the time to get your eyes dark adjusted then you'll see stars.

Whats wrong with the docking footage? Looks fine to me. Trouble is, people are too used to the rubbish physics in Star Trek/Wars/etc. How do you expect it to move?

6. In 60 years of all of NASA or any other organizations outer space video footage... there does not exist a single video clip of someone panning the camera 360 degrees!!! HOW COME???

This is a problem for you? Quite rare to see someone do that on Earth as well.

7.  Does anybody have a link to a rocket launch with rear facing cameras, where the rocket continues out into space eventually showing the whole globe????

That's gonna go great until the first stage with the camera gets ejected...

8. How about live streaming of the earth by using camera mounted on a geostationary satellite?
---The alleged speed of a geostationary satellite is about 10 000 km/h (height = 37 000 km)
---The alleged speed of ISS is about 28 000 km/h (height = 400 km)

I suppose no one who launches a geostationary can be bothered to put a camera on it along with the associated costs just to satisfy someone who doesn't believe in satellites.

9. How high must one get before the atmospheric rotation does not exist? For if all rotates it must have to stop somewhere. I figure at mt Everest you have one third less air at top so wouldn't that mean at 100,000 feet, if mt Everest is at 28000 ft, no air or no atmosphere? So why not simple make airplanes outfitted for 110000 ft go up and then come down and let the earth spin underneath to arrive at ur destination. Well, how about numerous footages (countless of which are available on youtube) taken by cameras (attached to a baskets of a balloons that can go as high as 125 000 feet) in which we can clearly see perfectly still earth underneath??? U know why they don't, because it's all Bullshit???

I don't even get this....you think the top of the atmosphere is stationary with regard to the Earths spin? Why would you think that?

Quote
Now, something very interesting regarding the point 9 :

Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary and that an aether rotates 24h/day around motionless earth.
However, aether's rotation is subtle, that is to say, we can detect that with interferometer kind of experiments (MMX, SAGNAC, MGP, ring-laser gyros, etc...), but aether's rotation doesn't produce such an effect which could be detected with directional gyros (heading indicators). However, if earth rotated heading indicators would indicate (detect) that motion. Not only that, your HC friends claim that mechanical heading indicators indeed detect earth's motion. But you as a pilot very well know that it is a blatant lie. They can claim whatever they want, but it doesn't matter what they claim, the only thing that matters is IS WHAT THEY CLAIM TRUE OR NOT, isn't that so??? Now, if earth rotated then mechanical heading indicators would detect earth's motion while we firmly stand on the rigid earth, and fly within earth's atmosphere, but that ability (of mechanical heading indicators) of detection of motion of the earth (and atmosphere) would come to a stop at higher altitudes (beyond earth's atmosphere). Where is (at what altitude) that boundary?

Now, even within geocentric scenario we would have the problem with that boundary, because unlike in HC scenario, within which going beyond that boundary means entering motionless space, within GC scenario, going beyond that boundary means entering *MECHANICALLY* (NOT AETHERLY) MOVING SPACE!!!

Aether? Oh dear, nurse!

Quote
10. Within HC model geostationary satellites (at 37 000 km distance) are very far away from the last frontier of earth's atmosphere, and despite that their orbital speed is perfectly synchronized with the speed of earth's rotation. Isn't that too good to be true?

Well it's got to be true at some altitude, why not 37,000km?

Quote
Within GC model geostationary satellites are again at 37 000 km distance and have to be motionless in the same way as the earth is motionless. I can show you how famous geocentrist Robert Sungenis explains the mechanics of that motionless geostationary satellites. He uses assumption of mechanical motion of space and then introduce roulette wheel and a ball example to illustrate how a ball (satellite) can stay fixed in space above certain point above the earth by the force of moving roulette wheel (rotating shell of the universe)...

I don't claim geostationary satellites don't exist for sure but since an explanation of Robert Sungenis is pretty odd, and since i know for sure that the earth is at rest (which means that HC explanation for geostationary satellites is 100 % fraudulent), then i still choose to remain suspicious about the very existence of geostationary satellites...

How do you know for sure? I'm not entirely sure I want to know why you think you know...

3. When the first crew who landed on the moon did a world tour, they presented the Dutch premier with a piece of moon rock ,,,when he died a few years ago the university of Utrecht in Holland did some experiments on what they thought was moon rock ,,and it was found to be worthless petrified wood ,,?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/space/6105902/Moon-rock-given-to-Holland-by-Neil-Armstrong-and-Buzz-Aldrin-is-fake.html
No, they didn't "present the Dutch premier with a piece of moon rock".
Quote from: MOON HOAX: DEBUNKED: DEBUNKING DOUBTERS AND LUNATICS, CELEBRATING COURAGE AND INGENUITY
9.8 How come the Moon rock donated to Holland is fake? (http://www.moonhoaxdebunked.com/2017/07/98-how-come-moon-rock-donated-to.html)
IN A NUTSHELL: Because it’s not a NASA Moon rock. Everything points to a mistake or to a hoax orchestrated by two Dutch artists in 2006. NASA has never authenticated the “rock” (there are no documents tracing its origins), it’s far too big to be a donated lunar sample, and its background story is nonsensical. It was reportedly donated privately in 1969 to a retired prime minister instead of being given, as was customary, to a representative of the then-current Dutch government; it wasn’t put on public display as a Moon rock would have deserved; and real donated Moon rocks were encapsulated in transparent plastic, while this one is not.

THE DETAILS:* In August 2009, several media outlets began reporting that the curators of the Dutch national museum in Amsterdam, the Rijksmuseum, had discovered that an exhibit that had been presented for years as an Apollo 11 Moon rock was actually a chunk of petrified wood (Figure 9.8-1).

* I am indebted to Diego Cuoghi for sharing his research into many of the details of this story.
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g_bNN6Kyfhk/WsW-alU-e1I/AAAAAAAAwTA/agbX5BmPlZIFB5i4mAqliqVXe0hSp9LZQCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/f0911.png)
 Figure 9.8-1. The fake “Moon rock” and its descriptive card.
. . . . . . . . .
Van Gelder also noted that the history of the item was suspicious. Real samples would be donated by the US government to the people of a country through a representative of the then-current government, not to a former prime minister who in 1969 had been out of office for eleven years. The US ambassador explained that he had received the exhibit from the US State Department, but he could not recall the details of the matter.

In addition to its inconsistent and implausible history, the fakery, if intended, wasn’t particularly subtle. The reddish color of the item was completely different from the usual color of lunar samples. Petrologist Wim van Westrenen, of the Amsterdam Free University, reported that he was immediately aware that something was wrong. Spectroscopic and microscopic inspection of a fragment taken from the item found quartz and cell-like structures typical of petrified wood.

Further anomalies become evident if the item is compared with a real sample donated to the Netherlands and stored at the Boerhaave museum (Figure 9.8-2).

Figure 9.8-2. At the top, encapsulated in clear plastic, a genuine sample of Moon rock
donated to the Netherlands by the US. Credit: Museumboerhaave.nl.

The real Dutch sample is encapsulated in plastic and accompanied by a national flag and by plaques that clearly identify it as fragments of Moon rocks retrieved by Apollo 11 and “presented to the people of the Kingdom of the Netherlands by Richard Nixon, President of the United States of America”. Specifically, the plaque states that “this flag of your nation was carried to the Moon and back by Apollo 11, and this fragment of the Moon’s surface was brought to Earth by the crew of that first manned lunar landing.”

Nowhere does it does not state that the fake rock was a "moon-rock" and anyone could tell at a glance that it wasn't a moon-rock.

Please investigate the source of your lies before you spread them further.
But I guess you'll just keep doing it along with the "Photoshopped" "fotos" you use - it's just the sort of person you've turned out to be.

Flat earth society overcrowded with rocket scientists, professional NASA shills, and astronomers supporting each other, and noone to support my geocentric view...Doesn't it strike you as odd (to say the least)???

So, i've got a message for all Flat Earthers, here (and there) :


Gas pressure requires molecules to be in contact with each other, bouncing off each other, causing millions of collisions per second, etc… If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed, so will the one behind that, never catching up with the first one. The third, fourth, etc… all fly off into the distance trying to fill the vacuum by finding their empty corner. So no matter how much gas you produce none of it will ever change the pressure under a space ship. None of it if will ever push a spaceship. To push a spaceship there must be some locally high pressure under it, which is impossible since the pressure in space is 0 everywhere.

Back the the Nozzle and the Massflow equation F=MA on earth
Think about a fire hose shooting water. A force comes directly back against the column of water shooting out. Why? Because the first drop of water has to pas through air, which is dense, causing many collisions, slowing down the drop of water. The second drop, directly behind the first, will not be slowed down by the air so it will collide with the first drop, the third drop hits the second drop and so on, the fast water coming through the hose pushing through the slower water outside causes Newton’s 3rd Law to push back on the column of water. This is why you need people holding the hose to add an unbalanced force otherwise the hose would not be able to push water through that column anymore, the water column would be diverted and the hose would flop around. It is obvious that one drop of water does not push back on the hose, you need a fast moving column.

The nozzle and the Massflow equation in space
Since the molecules leaving the combustion chamber and entering the vacuum never slow down, never collide with any outside objects, nor with each other, their force is always moving forward, away from the ship. There is no way for that force to be returned to the ship. There is no way for the force of the moving molecules to be extracted and used for propulsion. Their force is carried off into the far corners of space. This is also known as Joule Expansion. Remember that as soon as the nozzle is opened, the combustion chamber becomes part of the vacuum of space as is subject to its laws. A closed chamber is under pressure but not an open one.

NASA is lying at the molecular level
But that’s OK because most people don’t usually look there. The awesome, spectacular and heroic nature of space exploration is enough to cloud the most logical minds. Most respectable engineering schools won’t touch space flight and those who do have tiny departments. If it was really a multi-billion dollar government funded operation, every school in America would have their hands out for government grants like the do with Engineering, Computer Science and Biology. But why train thousands of the best minds of a generation in a field that doesn’t exist?

So, once again, just for you Jack :

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!

You've got it! Gas pressure doesn't matter outside the engine. All you're trying to do is throw mass away from the spacecraft as fast as possible. Don't care if the molecules are bouncing off each other or not.

It is obvious that one drop of water does not push back on the hose, you need a fast moving column.

So you think the friction of air against the water spout slows the water column down and so the water behind it pushes against the water in front and that in turn pushes on the hose nozzle causing the reaction force? The water from a hose goes a long way, slowing down along its whole trajectory and breaking up into smaller droplets which aren't touching each other and so aren't providing any of this "push back" force. If that's true you should be able to maximise your push back force by finding a way to make all the water slow down while it's still attached to the water column. So for example if you walked towards a wall with the hose, spraying the water onto it your push back force should increase as you get closer to the wall.

This does not happen in real life.

No. As explained before, the reaction force is not obtained by some kind of back pressure from the propellant. It is obtained simply by throwing a mass away.

Yes, odd that you still need to spout such nonsense rather than admit you were wrong or address the questions.
Why do you need to avoid them so much?

If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed, so will the one behind that, never catching up with the first one.
No it wont. Do you understand how gasses work at all?
Gasses don't just magically all have the same speed. Instead they have a distribution. They also don't just magically go to the exit.
If you release a gas inside a rocket engine, they will go outwards in all directions, not just towards the nozzle, and have a distribution of speed.
This means some will instead go towards the rocket and collide with it.

In order for what you are saying to be true, you already need to have the gas going out towards the vacuum, which means something needs to have already accelerated it, so you are just back to square one.

Think about a fire hose shooting water. A force comes directly back against the column of water shooting out. Why?
INERTIA.
The hose is effectively forcing the water out. As such, it will create a reactionary force on the hose.
Nothing to do with air resistance.

NASA is lying at the molecular level
No, that would still be you.
You still want to pretend that the gas just magically goes from no net momentum to magically heading towards the vacuum with no application of force.
Your claims are pure fiction.

”When a BODY exerts force on a SECOND  BODY” let me ask you, what is the second body being acted upon, IN A VACUUM ??!!
I have already answered this repeatedly. The exhaust is one body, being forced away from the second body, the rocket.

Now perhaps you can answer my question:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?


Repeating the same lies will not help you.
You need to explain how the gas goes from a net momentum of 0, to moving away from the rocket.

Now, care to try and address the question, or will you just provide more nonsense?

I think you are still struggling to understand what happens in a rocket motor's combustion chamber, even though this thread is full of posts which have explained what happens with total clarity. Are you imagining a little "Pffffft...." noise as fuel is sucked out helplessly into the vacuum of space? Because that is not what happens.

When a rocket motor is operating, insane quantities of fuel and oxidiser are pumped into the engine's combustion chamber and ignited, creating an apocalyptic, roaring, barely controlled explosion of boom.

There is so much boom that even if the engine bell is venting to a vacuum, there is still more than enough boom to continuously fill the combustion chamber. In the case of the Saturn V's first stage engines, there was enough boom to create an operating pressure in the combustion chamber of 1,015 psi. A reminder of what this looks and sounds like might help:

(http://)

Note at around 2.44 plenty of "molecules in contact with each other".

Now, I know the first stage didn't operate in space - but thirty seconds with Wikipedia will tell you that, say, the J-2 engines in a Saturn V's seond and third stages were equally happy making boom in space.

1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

(https://i.postimg.cc/rwwsgQYy/VELOCITY-OF-GAS-EXPANSION-IN-A-VACUUM-XXX.jpg)

Exhaust velocity of Ariana 5 rocket (at sea level) : 2749 m/s

Look at the velocity of a real Arianne 5 rocket in this video:
https://www.youtube.co/watch?v=nMFotrkgF-w

So, exhaust velocity is greater than rocket speed, which is in favor of my argument!

Since you need additional 3,5 km/s (on top of orbital speed) to leave low earth orbit (going directly away from the center of the earth), you can't even count on 2749 m/s (exhaust velocity of Ariana 5), all you can count on is about 2,3 km/s at best while there is still enough air density (barometric pressure) in space, once you reach a hard vacuum, the game is over...

Pressure altitude is dependent on the barometric pressure, and the density altitude incorporates an adjustment factor for temperature. In other words, density altitude is pressure altitude corrected for temperature.

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :



No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent)

An author of a text above is mr Wolfgang Smith. Smith graduated in 1948 from Cornell University with a B.A. in Philosophy, Physics and Mathematics. Two years later he obtained his M.S. in Physics from Purdue University and, some time later, a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Columbia University.

He worked as a physicist in Bell Aircraft corporation, researching aerodynamics and the problem of atmospheric reentry.[1] He was a mathematics professor at MIT, UCLA and Oregon State University, doing research in the field of differential geometry and publishing in academic journals such as the Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Journal of Mathematics, and others. He retired from academic life in 1992.

In parallel with his academic duties, he developed and still develops philosophical inquiries in the fields of metaphysics and the philosophy of science, publishing in specialized journals such as The Thomist and Sophia: The Journal of Traditional Studies.

You can here mr Smith's elaboration on this extremely interesting topic in this video :

COPERNICAN PRINCIPLE DESTROYED - part 2 :


It is important to note that much of the resistance to what we call the Copernican Revolution derived from the fact that for some time it left many important questions unanswered - in particular, how the planets and stars moved and cohered without the celestial spheres. One central insight was the switch from Aristotles's belief in projectile motion, in which a moving object must be acted upon directly to keep moving, to the modern concept of INERTIA, in which a moving object keeps moving unless stopped by wind drag or something else.

 A related insight also contrary to Aristotle was Newton's MATHEMATICAL understanding of GRAVITY, which allowed bodies to act on one another from a distance without direct contact. In a letter to Dr. Bentley. Feb. 25th, 1692, Newton says ;— “ That gravitation should be innate and inherent in matter, so that one body can act upon another at a distance — is to me SO GREAT AN ABSURDITY, that I believe no man who has, in philosophical matters, a competent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it .” Yet many have fallen into this “great absurdity.” Such men therefore—according to Newton — have not "a competent faculty of thinking” in philosophical matters. I am happy to be in agreement with Sir Isaac on this important point. Sir Robert Ball says: — “The law of gravitation ... underlies the whole of Astronomy.” (Story of the Heavens, p. 122). It does not speak very well for the Astronomy, if it is founded on an acknowledged “great absurdity.” According to Newton's way of thinking, besides the ordinary actions of physical laws, God acted by sustaining the motion of celestial spheres, and by setting up the initial orbits of the planets and later preventing them from disintegrating. Newton didn't hesitate to appeal to extraordinary acts of God to explain features of the natural world.

 Nevertheless, many of Newton's successors thought Newton was suggesting that God had to "correct" his own regular actions. They preferred instead the notion of God manifesting his powers not with irregular actions in nature but strictly by establishing regular "laws" that governed the entire cosmos.

Here is what Newton said in Proposition 43:

In order for the Earth to be at rest in the center of the system of the Sun, Planets, and Comets, there is required both universal gravity and another force in addition that acts on all bodies equally according to the quantity of matter in each of them and is equal and opposite to the accelerative gravity with which the Earth tends to the Sun... Since this force is equal and opposite to its gravity toward the Sun, the Earth can truly remain in equilibrium between these two forces and be at rest.  And thus celestial bodies can move around the Earth at rest,as in the Tychonic system.

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641


Geocentricity detractors often appeal to the coriolis effect. It is, like the rest of the appeals, vain. The observations would be the same geocentrically or heliocentrically. Dr. Bouw covers it in detail in his books and explains how the coriolis *effect* becomes an actual coriolis *force* under a geocentric setup (and centrifugal force becomes centrifugal effect).

Here are some more quotes on the matter from some esteemed scientists:

The Coriolis effect arises, equally, whether the Earth rotates or the cosmos rotates. - Rick DeLano

"One need not view the existence of such centrifugal forces as originating from the motion of K [e.g.-the Earth]; one could just as well account for them as resulting from the average rotational effect of distant, detectable masses as evidenced in the vicinity of K, whereby K is treated as being at rest. - Albert Einstein, quoted in Hans Thirring, "On the Effect of Distant Rotating Masses in Einstein's Theory of Gravitation", Physikalische Zeitschrift 22, 29, 1921

"If one rotates the shell relative to the fixed stars about an axis going through its center, a Coriolis force arises in the interior of the shell, *that is, the plane of a Foucault pendulum is dragged around*" - Albert Einstein, cited in "Gravitation", Misner Thorne and Wheeler pp. 544-545.

"...Thus we may return to Ptolemy's point of view of a 'motionless earth'...One has to show that the transformed metric can be regarded as produced according to Einstein's field equations, by distant rotating masses. This has been done by Thirring. He calculated a field due to a rotating, hollow, thick-walled sphere and proved that inside the cavity it behaved as though there were centrifugal and other inertial forces usually attributed to absolute space. Thus from Einstein's point of view, Ptolemy and Corpenicus are equally right." - Max Born, "Einstein's Theory of Relativity", Dover Publications, 1962, pp 344 & 345

Why Don't More Scientists reject the heliocentric theory?

Some scientists admit the truth in their own words. Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz (of the Lorentz translation equations, foundation of the General Theory of Relativity) noted that:

"Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest…"

His great contemporary Henri Poincare confessed:

"A great deal of research has been carried out concerning the influence of the Earth’s movement. The results were always negative..."

Lincoln Barnett agrees:

“No physical experiment ever proved that the Earth actually is in motion.”

And one of the chief participants in the experiment that bears his name (Albert A. Michelson), stunned by the results that went counter to his own heliocentric reflex:

“This conclusion directly contradicts the explanation… which presupposes that the Earth moves.”


Astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle says:

“Today we cannot say that the Copernican theory is “right” and the Ptolemaic theory is “wrong” in any meaningful sense (…) Science today is locked into paradigms. Every avenue is blocked by beliefs that are wrong, and if you try to get anything published in a journal today, you will run up against a paradigm, and the editors will turn you down.”

In further startling evidence that the scientific community is stifling dissenting views, Alexander von Humboldt admitted:

“I have known too, for a long time that we have no argument for the Copernican system, but I shall never dare to be the first to attack it. Don't rush into the wasps' nest. You will bring upon yourself the scorn of the thoughtless multitude… to come forth as the first against opinions, which the world has become fond of - I don't feel the courage.”

In other words, the notion that the earth revolves around the sun having become dogma, its denial spells automatic excommunication from the scientific establishment. As for the unthinking masses, a lie need only be systematized in textbooks to pass for truth.

The circumstances surrounding Hubble’s interpretation of the redshift are intriguing. Hubble worked with Milton Humason, but only Hubble’s name is associated with the redshift/expansion theory. The primary reason is that Humason was very reluctant to provide evidence for an expanding universe. The scientific community, based on Einstein’s reworked mathematical formulas (courtesy of de Sitter and Friedmann), had already decided that the universe was expanding, but they were missing observational evidence. Consequently, the science community was predisposed to interpret redshift as a Doppler phenomenon wherein galaxies are understood to be moving away at great speeds from the observer.2 This is in the face of the fact that there was no proof for a connection between receding galaxies and redshift, or that galaxies are receding at all, or that redshift is to be interpreted as a Doppler shift. In a paper published in 1931 Humason wrote:

It is not at all certain that the large redshifts observed in the spectra are to be interpreted as a Doppler effect but, for convenience, they are interpreted in terms of velocity and referred to as apparent velocities.

Interestingly enough, regardless of what the science establishment now associates exclusively with Edwin Hubble, the fact remains that even Hubble never fully committed himself to the now popular interpretation. Hubble was quite aware of what the science community desired, but maintained his distance. He writes:

This explanation interprets redshifts as Doppler effects, that is to say, as velocity-shifts, indicating actual motion of recession. It may be stated with some confidence that redshifts are velocity-shifts or else they represent some hitherto unrecognized principle  in  physics....  Meanwhile,  redshifts  may  be  expressed  on a scale of velocities as a matter of convenience. They behave as velocity-shifts behave and they are very simply represented on the same familiar scale, regardless of the ultimate interpretation. The term “apparent velocity” may be used in carefully considered statements, and the adjective always implied where it is omitted in general usage.

As we have noted in our earlier discussion of Hubble, he then came to the place where he knew ?considering what he actually saw in his telescope? that there were only two options left to him. He writes:

Thus the use of dimming corrections leads to a particular kind of universe, but one which most students are likely to reject as highly improbable. Furthermore, the strange features of this universe are merely the dimming corrections expressed in different terms. Omit the dimming factors, and the oddities vanish. We are left with the simple, even familiar concept of a sensibly infinite universe. All the difficulties are transferred to the interpretation of redshifts which cannot then be the familiar velocity shifts....Meanwhile, on the basis of the evidence now available, apparent discrepancies between theory and observation must be recognized. A choice is presented, as once before in the days of Copernicus, between a strangely small, finite universe and a sensibly infinite universe plus a new principle of nature.[/color]

BOTH electrodynamics and mechanics are GALILEAN INVARIANT.

Maxwell's original set of equations is Galilean invariant:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg2168036#msg2168036

Only the Heaviside-Lorentz equations are Lorentz invariant.

Einstein had no knowledge of the original set of Maxwell equations which renders relativity useless: his "conjecture" (described pompously as a postulate) is not worth the paper it was printed on.

Moreover, THERE IS NO BOUNDED DYNAMICAL SOLUTION IN EINSTEIN'S TGR:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg2194825#msg2194825

This means that the linearized, weak-field approximation is useless: TGR cannot be applied to Mercury's perihelion calculations, or the bending of light or anything else.

Einstein did not provide a proof that his GR equations apply to MANY-BODY problems, a fact which was observed by A. Gullstrand.

In order to obtain a correct bounded dynamic solution, one needs to insert a repulsive gravitation term in the equations, exactly what Reissner, Nordstrom and Weyl did.

And not you show that you are unable to understand the basics of rocket propulsion!
Quote from: cikljamas
Gas pressure requires molecules to be in contact with each other, bouncing off each other, causing millions of collisions per second, etc… If you release gas into the vacuum of space, the first molecule that pops out will shoot off into the distance at a constant speed, so will the one behind that, never catching up with the first one. The third, fourth, etc… all fly off into the distance trying to fill the vacuum by finding their empty corner. So no matter how much gas you produce none of it will ever change the pressure under a space ship. None of it if will ever push a spaceship. To push a spaceship there must be some locally high pressure under it, which is impossible since the pressure in space is 0 everywhere.
Sure gas pressure IN "the vacuum of space" is zero but the exit of the nozzle is not IN "the vacuum of space" ans so can have a slight pressure and this leads to the Exhaust Area x (Exhaust Pressure - External Pressure) term in the thrust equation.

But, as you have been told numerous times, most of the thrust from a rocket does not come from the pressure difference term but from the rate of change o momentum term of (Mass Flow Rate) x (Exhaust Velocity).

Quote from: cikljamas
Back the the Nozzle and the Massflow equation F=MA on earth
Think about a fire hose shooting water. A force comes directly back against the column of water shooting out. Why? Because the first drop of water has to pas through air, which is dense, causing many collisions, slowing down the drop of water. The second drop, directly behind the first, will not be slowed down by the air so it will collide with the first drop, the third drop hits the second drop and so on, the fast water coming through the hose pushing through the slower water outside causes Newton’s 3rd Law to push back on the column of water. This is why you need people holding the hose to add an unbalanced force otherwise the hose would not be able to push water through that column anymore, the water column would be diverted and the hose would flop around. It is obvious that one drop of water does not push back on the hose, you need a fast moving column.
No, the thrust does not come from "one water drop pushing on another" but simply from the rate of change of momentum, as above!
Or from the force required to accelerate the water drop if you like.

Quote from: cikljamas
The nozzle and the Massflow equation in space
Since the molecules leaving the combustion chamber and entering the vacuum never slow down, never collide with any outside objects, nor with each other, their force is always moving forward, away from the ship. There is no way for that force to be returned to the ship. There is no way for the force of the moving molecules to be extracted and used for propulsion.
No, the thrust does not come from "one molecule pushing on another" but simply from the rate of change of momentum, as above!
Or from the force required to accelerate the molecule if you like.

Quote from: cikljamas
Their force is carried off into the far corners of space. This is also known as Joule Expansion.
No, the "Joule Expansion" is completely irrelevant and would simply say that no work can be done on the vacuum - which is obvious!

Quote from: cikljamas
Remember that as soon as the nozzle is opened, the combustion chamber becomes part of the vacuum of space as is subject to its laws. A closed chamber is under pressure but not an open one.
No, it is a complete fallacy that "as soon as the nozzle is opened, the combustion chamber becomes part of the vacuum of space"!

A simple question for you :

Since JackBlack & others rejected validity of the following argument, i would like to here your opinion on the words in blue :

INTRODUCTION :

We must understand the mechanism of the tides, he insist, and the way to begin to do
this  is  to  have  a  laboratory  scale model  of  the  tides.  Galileo invites his readers to
consider a rectangular shallow flat bottomed basin of water:  'just like' the water in the
ocean basin.  Galileo asks:  “What happens if I rhythmically push the basin forward and
pull the basin back?”  If the rhythm is correct, Galileo states you will get an oscillating
wall of water moving back and forth, which is a model of the tides.  This motion is the
alternate  acceleration  and  deceleration  of  the  water.    But  how  is  this  alternately
accelerating and decelerating motion of the seas and oceans produced on Earth?

In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. 
We  shall assign  speeds  to  the Earth’s motions:    its orbital  speed around  the Sun, Vo,
and  its  speed  of  axial  daily  rotation Vd.   Now  consider  a point on  the  surface of  the
Earth  at noon  time.   What  is  the  speed of  that point  in  space  at noon?    It  is Vo+Vd. 
What  about  at  midnight  when  the  same  point  has  moved  around  with  the  spinning
Earth?  What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed
is at noon  time and  the minimum speed  is at midnight.   And every day every point on
the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd  to a minimum Vo-
Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24
hours  that means  that  every  point  on Earth  is  alternately  accelerated  and  decelerated,
accelerated and decelerated, and so on.   And Galileo’s conclusion  is  that  in  the oceans
and seas, subjected to this daily alternation of acceleration and deceleration, you would
get the sloshing of the tides!

(https://i.postimg.cc/W4kjbV4w/GALILEO-FIGURE-1.jpg)
 
This  theory  is wrong  in  terms  of  the  later Newtonian  physics,  and Galileo was  also
wrong  in  the eyes of his friends who would not accept his  theory of  the  tides.  One of
the  reasons Galileo’s  theory was not convincing was  that  there were other  theories of
the tides. For example,  Kepler said “The Moon affects the oceans and causes the tides”. 
Galileo disagreed with Kepler, asking how  this occurred, by some  'magical' action at a
distance.   Another person  to dispute his  theories was  the magician, alternative Natural
Philosopher and Dominican, Tommaso Campanella who asked why humans,  trees and
houses, were not accelerated and decelerated all the time. Galileo’s motion of the tides
also completely contradicts his inertial motion theory. So, his theory of the tides did not
convince many people.

Now what about  the meaning of  the Galileo affair?   There are certain points  that are
true in this affair for observers of varied persuasions:  Firstly, Galileo was presenting a
fragmentary  set  of  arguments  against  an  established world  view.   Galileo was  not  a
Natural  Philosopher  in  the  systematic  sense  of  say, Aristotle  or  later  on Newton,  or
Descartes.  Galileo had his telescope, his theory of the tides and his theory of motion --
his physics. He could persuade people of his theory but he could not replace, system for
system, the existing total picture.  This is one of the drawbacks for Galileo.

Yet, we must also consider that it was perfectly reasonable in 1633 that Tycho’s system
could be proved right and that Aristotle's could be patched up to agree with the
Tychonic  system. Galileo’s trial comes  down to a political value judgement and the
balance of the judgement was something like this: Do you follow Galileo without  a
system into a new view which may have religious or political repercussions. Or, do you
stick with an old view, which is under criticism, but which has not been overthrown and
which seems to be successful in helping to solidify the political and  institutional order
on  the Catholic  side.  These were value  judgements. A  frame-ups of Galileo aside,  it
would seem perfectly reasonable to have adopted the latter position. 

There was no reason in some supposed scientific method, or 'the nuggety facts' that would seem to
have favoured one or the other position in 1633, and that is the fundamental point that
we have been trying to come to grips with in these two Chapters on the Galileo affair.

AN ARGUMENT :

If we put an accelerometer at the equator, why at night we do not see an acceleration and a deceleration by day if the earth really rotates?
The dark side of the earth away from the sun is moving faster of course (relative to the sun) as it is shooting forward.  And the sunny side is moving 'backward" or at least slower than the dark side.
So... 65,000 mph around the sun.
Dark side moving at 66,000mph.
Light side moving at 64,000mph.
So... In 12 hours from midnight to mid day, YOU should reduce in speed my 2000mph around the sun.  This means that every min in that 12 hours, you are slowing down 2.777777 mph.  Very small amount.  A human cannot feel this.  But an accelerometer TOTALLY can.  This mean I should be able to put my cellphone on a table and see the accelerometer showing a reading.

This is called the SOLAR GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL PARADOX.

We have the ROTATIONAL solar gravitational potential equation. That is, as the GPS satellites rotate above the Earth, they record the ether drift effect upon the clocks.

However, we also have the ORBITAL solar gravitational potential. And this one is MISSING.

It is NOT recorded/registered by GPS satellites.

GPS satellites also do not record the ORBITAL CORIOLIS EFFECT, not to mention the ROTATIONAL SAGNAC EFFECT.

This means that the hypotheses of the Ruderfer experiment are fulfilled: this is the main reason why relativists are FORCED to accept Lorentz' local-aether model.

Maybe i should have been more specific : Do you still believe in FE theory?

I mean, if you still believe in FE theory, everything else you may think you know is practically worthless!

You know why? Because if you are unable to give me a correct answer to simple math question (for example : you disagree that 2 +2 equals 4), then no sane person would believe you can correctly derive more complex mathematical equations, let alone very complex one...

On top of that, you haven't answered my question directly, why is that?

You don't have your own opinion?

How about one another interesting question : Do you believe rockets can fly in a vacuum?

Geosynchronous Satellites

         To call…a geosynchronous body a satellite, is simply to use “satellite” to connote dependency, as in “Hungary is a Russian satellite.”  But in this sense a “geosynchronous satellite” is a satellite also of all other bodies in the universe, insofar as they all have a gravitational effect on the body.  The expression, “geosynchronous orbit,” would thus make sense only if it is understood to be a misnomer for gravitational equi­libration.

The difficulty of placing a body in “geosynchronous orbit” is merely that of finding the area of relative gravitational equilibration between earth and the other bodies of the universe.  Since synchronous is a sym­metrical, transitive and reflexive relation, a “geosynchronous” body is synchronous with all and only “geosynchronous” bodies.  [Sic]  And since the other stellar bodies, of which a “geosynchronous” body is also a satel­lite are not themselves “geosynchronous,” the area of relative gravita­tional equilibration wanders away from the position occupied by a “geosynchronous” body.  Being no longer gravitationally equilibrated, the body loses its “geosynchronicity;” and the nongeocentrist says, “Aha!  Orbital decay!”


Geostationary Satellites hover over the same point of the earth because they orbit the earth at the same speed as the earth rotates.

THE QUESTION : A geosynchronous satellites have to travel around the earth at 11 000 km/h in order not to fall back on earth. How do they manage that?

According to HC theory the earth and the atmosphere are both spinning at the same rate (according to the heliocentric model) with high speeds at the equator and lesser speeds towards the poles.

To skim the Earth’s atmosphere in orbit, your spacecraft has to travel at least as fast as 7.8 km/s, or about 17,500 mph. The Earth itself, with its atmosphere, is spinning eastward below you, at around 1,000 mph. So, you can reduce your re-entry speed by orbiting in the same direction that the Earth spins. However, that only helps a bit. Your spacecraft still has to travel at 16,500 mph relative to our atmosphere to stay in orbit.

1. How ISS gained (and maintains) it's incredible orbital velocity (7,66 km/s = 27 600 km/h)???

2. How Space Shuttle gained it's incredible orbital velocity (7,66 km/s)??? 

3. Where does the space shuttle reenters earth’s atmosphere and is the space shuttle following the spin of the earth? If not wouldn’t it be impossible to reenter the earth due to the fact that the atmosphere would hit the shuttle with the strength of a tornado that blows 26 000 km/h (which would be the difference between Space Shuttle's orbital velocity and rotational velocity of earth's atmosphere?

It was launched on many rockets... you do know that? Why is that a problem? Why would it lose its velocity, it's in a vacuum. Ok, it gets a tiny bit of drag from the top of the atmosphere and it tops up it's speed by gently accelerating with a small rocket

2. How Space Shuttle gained it's incredible orbital velocity (7,66 km/s)??? 

Again, with rockets. You've seen the launch videos, some of which track it almost to orbit, what's the problem?

Somewhere over the Pacific. It launched following the spin off the earth (eastwards) so it has to return following the spin, it's not like it can reverse direction while in orbit, it doesn't carry that much deltaV.

If it was launched to the west then yes,  the atmosphere underneath it (at the equator) is passing by at an extra two thousand miles an hour's faster than if it was going east.

BOTH electrodynamics and mechanics are GALILEAN INVARIANT.

Maxwell's original set of equations is Galilean invariant:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg2168036#msg2168036

Only the Heaviside-Lorentz equations are Lorentz invariant.

Einstein had no knowledge of the original set of Maxwell equations which renders relativity useless: his "conjecture" (described pompously as a postulate) is not worth the paper it was printed on.

Moreover, THERE IS NO BOUNDED DYNAMICAL SOLUTION IN EINSTEIN'S TGR:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg2194825#msg2194825

This means that the linearized, weak-field approximation is useless: TGR cannot be applied to Mercury's perihelion calculations, or the bending of light or anything else.

Einstein did not provide a proof that his GR equations apply to MANY-BODY problems, a fact which was observed by A. Gullstrand.

In order to obtain a correct bounded dynamic solution, one needs to insert a repulsive gravitation term in the equations, exactly what Reissner, Nordstrom and Weyl did.

A simple question for you :

Since JackBlack & others rejected validity of the following argument, i would like to here your opinion on the words in blue :

INTRODUCTION :

We must understand the mechanism of the tides, he insist, and the way to begin to do
this  is  to  have  a  laboratory  scale model  of  the  tides.  Galileo invites his readers to
consider a rectangular shallow flat bottomed basin of water:  'just like' the water in the
ocean basin.  Galileo asks:  “What happens if I rhythmically push the basin forward and
pull the basin back?”  If the rhythm is correct, Galileo states you will get an oscillating
wall of water moving back and forth, which is a model of the tides.  This motion is the
alternate  acceleration  and  deceleration  of  the  water.    But  how  is  this  alternately
accelerating and decelerating motion of the seas and oceans produced on Earth?

In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. 
We  shall assign  speeds  to  the Earth’s motions:    its orbital  speed around  the Sun, Vo,
and  its  speed  of  axial  daily  rotation Vd.   Now  consider  a point on  the  surface of  the
Earth  at noon  time.   What  is  the  speed of  that point  in  space  at noon?    It  is Vo+Vd. 
What  about  at  midnight  when  the  same  point  has  moved  around  with  the  spinning
Earth?  What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed
is at noon  time and  the minimum speed  is at midnight.   And every day every point on
the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd  to a minimum Vo-
Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24
hours  that means  that  every  point  on Earth  is  alternately  accelerated  and  decelerated,
accelerated and decelerated, and so on.   And Galileo’s conclusion  is  that  in  the oceans
and seas, subjected to this daily alternation of acceleration and deceleration, you would
get the sloshing of the tides!

(https://i.postimg.cc/W4kjbV4w/GALILEO-FIGURE-1.jpg)
 
This  theory  is wrong  in  terms  of  the  later Newtonian  physics,  and Galileo was  also
wrong  in  the eyes of his friends who would not accept his  theory of  the  tides.  One of
the  reasons Galileo’s  theory was not convincing was  that  there were other  theories of
the tides. For example,  Kepler said “The Moon affects the oceans and causes the tides”. 
Galileo disagreed with Kepler, asking how  this occurred, by some  'magical' action at a
distance.   Another person  to dispute his  theories was  the magician, alternative Natural
Philosopher and Dominican, Tommaso Campanella who asked why humans,  trees and
houses, were not accelerated and decelerated all the time. Galileo’s motion of the tides
also completely contradicts his inertial motion theory. So, his theory of the tides did not
convince many people.

Now what about  the meaning of  the Galileo affair?   There are certain points  that are
true in this affair for observers of varied persuasions:  Firstly, Galileo was presenting a
fragmentary  set  of  arguments  against  an  established world  view.   Galileo was  not  a
Natural  Philosopher  in  the  systematic  sense  of  say, Aristotle  or  later  on Newton,  or
Descartes.  Galileo had his telescope, his theory of the tides and his theory of motion --
his physics. He could persuade people of his theory but he could not replace, system for
system, the existing total picture.  This is one of the drawbacks for Galileo.

Yet, we must also consider that it was perfectly reasonable in 1633 that Tycho’s system
could be proved right and that Aristotle's could be patched up to agree with the
Tychonic  system. Galileo’s trial comes  down to a political value judgement and the
balance of the judgement was something like this: Do you follow Galileo without  a
system into a new view which may have religious or political repercussions. Or, do you
stick with an old view, which is under criticism, but which has not been overthrown and
which seems to be successful in helping to solidify the political and  institutional order
on  the Catholic  side.  These were value  judgements. A  frame-ups of Galileo aside,  it
would seem perfectly reasonable to have adopted the latter position. 

There was no reason in some supposed scientific method, or 'the nuggety facts' that would seem to
have favoured one or the other position in 1633, and that is the fundamental point that
we have been trying to come to grips with in these two Chapters on the Galileo affair.

AN ARGUMENT :

If we put an accelerometer at the equator, why at night we do not see an acceleration and a deceleration by day if the earth really rotates?
The dark side of the earth away from the sun is moving faster of course (relative to the sun) as it is shooting forward.  And the sunny side is moving 'backward" or at least slower than the dark side.
So... 65,000 mph around the sun.
Dark side moving at 66,000mph.
Light side moving at 64,000mph.
So... In 12 hours from midnight to mid day, YOU should reduce in speed my 2000mph around the sun.  This means that every min in that 12 hours, you are slowing down 2.777777 mph.  Very small amount.  A human cannot feel this.  But an accelerometer TOTALLY can.  This mean I should be able to put my cellphone on a table and see the accelerometer showing a reading. 

RABINOZ LIKES GOEBBELS :

Gas pressure
Repeatedly ignoring the question and repeating the same refuted lie wont help your case.

I have already refuted all the garbage you have spouted.
You are yet to even address the question.

You need to explain how the gas accelerates.
That requires a force.
That requires interacting with another body to produce a reactionary force.

And running off on more tangents which are completely irrelevant to what is being discussed wont help you either.

Until you manage to address the question and the issues it raises, you have nothing.
So again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Agreed, geosynchronous and geostationary satellites must orbit the earth once per sidereal day or in close to 23.93 hours.
This makes the orbital altitude approximately 35,786 km, the orbital radius approximately 42,164 km and the orbital velocity 3074.66 m/s (11069 km/hr).

GAU-8 Avenger
Rate of fire: 3,900 rpm
Muzzle velocity: 1010 m/s
Projectile weight : 0.7 kg

The GAU-8 itself weighs 620 pounds (280 kg), but the complete weapon, with feed system and drum, weighs 4,029 pounds (1,828 kg) with a maximum ammunition load.

980 N force is needed for lifting 100 kg.
980 * 18,28 = 17,91 kN

------------------------------

Space Shuttle Endeavour :

Weight : 100 000 kg
Main engines : Three Rocketdyne Block IIA SSME, each 1752 MN
Payload : 25 060 kg
Alleged Speed : 7743 m/s (27 875 km/h, 17 321 mi/h)

Weight : 120 000 kg
1200 * 980 = 1,176 000 N = 1,2 MN

Each shuttle main engine has about 418,000 pounds of thrust, and there are three on the vehicle, so that's about 1.2 million.

1 200 000 pounds of force = 545 454 kg = 5 280 000 N

545 454 kg / 120 000 kg = 4,5 (ratio)

In orbit Space Shuttle has to achieve certain speed (7743 m/s) to stay in orbit using recoil power of it's engines.

----------------------------------------------

GAU-8 Avanger

65 (rounds per second) * 0,7 kg (weight of projectiles) = 45,5 kg

45,5 kg * 1010 m/s (muzzle velocity) = 45 955 N = 45,9 kN

45 955 N = 10 482 pounds of force = 4764 kg of force

4764 kg / 1828 kg (GAU-8 total weight) = 2,6 (ratio)

------------------------------------------------------

So, GAU-8 Avanger (weight = 1,8 tons) ejects 45,5 kg at 1010 m/s! (1010 m/s = 3636 km/h)

How fast GAU-8 is going to go using it's own recoil power?

Let's suppose that Space Shuttle's exhaust velocity is 2000 m/s

It means that main engines of Space Shuttle would have to eject 2640 kg at 2000 m/s!

------------------------------------

However, if you want to propel (with recoiling mechanism) Space Shuttle 2000 m/s in a vacuum of space, you have to eject 120 000 kg (not 2640 kg) at 2000 m/s which is the first impossibility right there.

Second impossibility : Even if you could get around first impossibility, it wouldn't work since the speed of expansion of gasses in a vacuum would be much greater than exhaust velocity of Space Shuttle main engines, which would prevent any work to be done.

Third impossibility : Even if there was a way around first and second impossibility you would still be at loss for 4743 m/s, or to be honest (given the theoretical facts asserted in the following passage), you would be at loss for 3443 m/s :

After the solid rockets are jettisoned, the main engines provide thrust which accelerates the Shuttle from 4,828 kilometers per hour (3,000 mph) to over 27,358 kilometers per hour (17,000 mph) in just six minutes to reach orbit. They create a combined maximum thrust of more than 1.2 million pounds.

It's not quite that easy to dismiss the geocentric model.

As for cik, he at least presents evidence and makes a case unlike legba that just screams and yells at everyone (though at times amusing). Even with everyone chomping at his ankles.

I guess I will still do some fun experiments in the vacuum chamber since there is a thread like this even though I was years late on the project.

You have to admit though, rockets working in a vacuum or not, the moon landing sure has alot of holes in it. Very questionable, especially considering there was so much motivation to fake it.

How much did the Space Shuttle weigh?
The Space Shuttle weighed 74,800 kg empty. Its external tank weighed 35,400 kg empty and its two solid rocket boosters weighed 83,900 kg empty each. Each solid rocket booster held 500,000 kg of fuel. The external tank held 616,432 kg of liquid oxygen  and 102,500 kg of liquid hydrogen . The fuel weighed almost 20 times more than the Shuttle. At launch, the Shuttle, external tank, solid rocket boosters and all the fuel combined had a total weight of 2.0 million kg.

Boosters (2 used): Exhaust velocity = 2.37 km/s; Burn time = 127 seconds.
Main Engine (3 installed): Sea-level exhaust velocity = 3.59 km/s;  Vacuum exhaust velocity = 4.436 km/s km/s; Burn time = 8.5 minutes.

Remember that the mass falls off rapidly as the fuel is burned, still further as the SRBs and finally, the external fuel tank are discarded.

Do the Delta V sums yourself!

Where did you drag that from?
The three main engines each eject about 515 kg/sec at 4.436 km/sec in vacuum for a vacuum thrust of about 2279 kN.

How do you work that out?
The launch mass, depending on the configuration, was about 2,000,000 kg.
The Space Shuttle weighed 74,800 kg empty and could carry a 24,310 kg payload into LEO totally around 100,000 kg into orbit.

If you want to work out the end velocity you must account for the reduction in mass as fuel is burnt and the SRBs and external fuel tank are discarded.

Quote from: cikljamas
Second impossibility : Even if you could get around first impossibility, it wouldn't work since the speed of expansion of gasses in a vacuum would be much greater than exhaust velocity of Space Shuttle main engines, which would prevent any work to be done.
That is totally irrelevant because the burnt propellant is a very high velocity (4.436 km/sec for the main engines) in the vacuum and then gradually disperses.

The exhaust gasses are far behind the rocket at that stage.

Third impossibility : Even if there was a way around first and second impossibility you would still be at loss for 4743 m/s, or to be honest (given the theoretical facts asserted in the following passage), you would be at loss for 3443 m/s :

After the solid rockets are jettisoned, the main engines provide thrust which accelerates the Shuttle from 4,828 kilometers per hour (3,000 mph) to over 27,358 kilometers per hour (17,000 mph) in just six minutes to reach orbit. They create a combined maximum thrust of more than 1.2 million pounds.
Where is there any "impossibility"?

You give me the values for:
The total mass after the SRBs have been jettisoned, the total mass after the external fuel tank has been jettisoned and the total mass into orbit and we'll take it from there.

This might help:

When the Solid Rocket Boosters separate at an altitude of approximately 45 kilometers (28 miles),
the orbiter, with the main engines still burning, carries the external tank piggyback to near orbital velocity, approximately 113 kilometers (70 miles) above the Earth.
The now nearly empty tank separates and falls in a preplanned trajectory with the majority of it disintegrating in the atmosphere and the rest falling into the ocean.
Here is the data on the ascent of STS-121 to a bit over 100 km. It shows altitude , velocity and acceleration at 20 sec intervals. See if that helps:

All Truth passes through three stages.
First, it is ridiculed,
Then it is violently opposed,
Finally it is accepted as self-evident.
-Arthur Schopenhauer-

In an age of universal deceit,
telling the Truth is a revolutionary act.
Whoever controls the past, controls the future.
-George Orwell-

One of the saddest lessons of history is this:
If we’ve been bamboozled long enough,
we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle.
We’re no longer interested in finding out the Truth.
The bamboozle has captured us.
It’s simply too painful to acknowledge,
even to ourselves,
that we’ve been taken.
Once you give a charlatan power over you,
you almost never get it back.

Yes, when they are sent to that altitude and given orbital velocity with a rocket! Then that "balloon" becomes a bug reflective sphere!

Why is that a problem?

and set satellites with balloons near 1000 miles up. They inflated the balloon in the vacuum of space, OPPS, no vacuum. 
Why is that any evidence of "no vacuum"? It was one of the Echo satellites and not held aloft by buoyancy but by orbiting.
Read up on it in: 1st Communication Satellite: A Giant Space Balloon 50 Years Ago. (https://www.space.com/8973-1st-communication-satellite-giant-space-balloon-50-years.html)

Quote from: Plat Terra
Here is a 1960s broadcast about this amazing technology. 


And you believe the rubbish in that "Nasa No vacuum in space, balloons can go up to 1000 miles , Project Echo" video?
Why couldn’t a very strong balloon be inflated in a vacuum?

Open minded people who can't understand something research it and learn what they can.
Whereas closed-minded ignoramuses simply ridicule what their small minds can't understand - seems to fit QNFee to a T!

I fail to see why the Echo satellites could not be genuine.
They did, I believe, have initial problems with overinflation due to traces of moisture inside before launch.

You really have little understanding this sort of thing do you?

Again, just for you Jack :

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

I think the real question is why did they even "go" to the moon?  You would think that they would make a full documentary and record every moment while they were up there on the surface showing them doing some actual research or exploration but they only have videos of them driving in circles for no reason.  People make documentaries here on earth exploring jungles and what not all the time you would think that they would record everything as they ventured to a place no one has ever been to. We send men to another body in our solar system for the first time and what do they concentrate their camera on? the spaceship they flew in from earth. Doesn't that strike you as odd? It would be like sending the Rover to Mars with a camera that just points backwards at the Rover.

The question is this : *What heck are they doing up there?* Or to put it another way : Even if you knew nothing about Apollo Space Program Hoax, wouldn't you expect different kinds of alarm turning on in the head of any intelligent person when pondering on the possible purpose of silly apollo-moon games : playing golf on the moon, driving buggy like children in the playground, running (jumping) around like drunk lunatics, drilling holes, performing fraudulent scientific experiments (simultaneously dropping the hammer and feather (made out of metal) etc..)???

1:28 I looked into why they haven't gone back. Excuses such as "we don't have the technology anymore and safety reasons" but they biggest excuse ... "It's really expensive and NASA doesn't have enough funding". Sooo, I researched how much money has been budgeted for NASA.. from 1958-2018 round $601 billion! In 2017,the budget given is $19.653 billion which $628 million above the original request for the agency in the Obama administration. I have also read their expenditures were only 1/5 or around $101 billion. So why again is money an issue?
 And who in the f loses or "erases" one of the biggest advances in history due to a shortage of film. I have read it was like 700 boxes of the original moon landing . Really??

If some robot like Jesus would walk on the Moon in sandals, wrapped in bed shit and NASA would say that was Jesus,  I am sure millions would believe it.

The vehicle was a Winzen-Balloon with a volume of 1.35 million cubic metres, launched in October 1972 in Chico, California, USA.[citation needed]

During 2002 an ultra-thin-film balloon named BU60-1 made of polyethylene film 3.4 µm thick with a volume of 60,000 m³ was launched from Sanriku Balloon Center at Ofunato City, Iwate in Japan at 6:35 on May 23, 2002. The balloon ascended at a speed of 260 m per minute and successfully reached the altitude of 53.0 km (173,900 ft), breaking the previous world record set during 1972

I see a lot of spam there, including a lot blatant misrepresentation or falsehoods.

Name one falsehood, and prove your claim! Do i ask too much of you?

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Again, just for you Jack :

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

I think the real question is why did they even "go" to the moon?  You would think that they would make a full documentary and record every moment while they were up there on the surface showing them doing some actual research or exploration but they only have videos of them driving in circles for no reason.  People make documentaries here on earth exploring jungles and what not all the time you would think that they would record everything as they ventured to a place no one has ever been to. We send men to another body in our solar system for the first time and what do they concentrate their camera on? the spaceship they flew in from earth. Doesn't that strike you as odd? It would be like sending the Rover to Mars with a camera that just points backwards at the Rover.

I think the real question is why did they even "go" to the moon?

People make documentaries here on earth exploring jungles and what not all the time you would think that they would record everything as they ventured to a place no one has ever been to. Just my thoughts on the whole "moon" mission.
 
The question is this : *What heck are they doing up there?* Or to put it another way : Even if you knew nothing about Apollo Space Program Hoax, wouldn't you expect different kinds of alarm turning on in the head of any intelligent person when pondering on the possible purpose of silly apollo-moon games : playing golf on the moon, driving buggy like children in the playground, running (jumping) around like drunk lunatics, drilling holes, performing fraudulent scientific experiments (simultaneously dropping the hammer and feather (made out of metal) etc..)???

1:28 I looked into why they haven't gone back. Excuses such as "we don't have the technology anymore and safety reasons" but they biggest excuse ... "It's really expensive and NASA doesn't have enough funding". Sooo, I researched how much money has been budgeted for NASA.. from 1958-2018 round $601 billion! In 2017,the budget given is $19.653 billion which $628 million above the original request for the agency in the Obama administration. I have also read their expenditures were only 1/5 or around $101 billion. So why again is money an issue?
 And who in the f loses or "erases" one of the biggest advances in history due to a shortage of film. I have read it was like 700 boxes of the original moon landing . Really??

If some robot like Jesus would walk on the Moon in sandals, wrapped in bed shit and NASA would say that was Jesus,  I am sure millions would believe it.

One of the few launches from the short-lived ANSA (the American National Space Administration), the Icarus — also known as the Liberty 1 — was a ship that proved to be far more successful than first intended. Launched as an attempt to reach another star, it not only succeeded in that mission, but also traveled two millennia in the future to a world where mankind was enslaved by apes. Admittedly, that last part didn’t really work out too well, but come on: that’s a well-built spacecraft right there.

Again, just for you Jack :
Repeating the same lies wont help you.

Again, the gas starts with a velocity of 0 relative to the rocket.
It ends with a non-0 velocity relative to the rocket.
This DEMANDS a force be applied to the gas to accelerate it.
This DEMANDS another body interacting with the gas to provide this force.

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field.
That is correct. So how does the gas accelerate out of the rocket?
If what you were saying was true (that the gas and rocket need to be considered one body) then the gas could not leave the rocket. It would remain trapped inside the rocket, even with an opening to a vacuum. That is pure nonsense. The rational solution to this problem is to accept that the rocket and gas are 2 separate bodies, which interact with each other so the rocket forces the gas one way and the gas forces the rocket in the opposite direction.

That is what you need to address.
That is what you have repeatedly refused to address.

Care to try and actually address it?

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
Pretending there is no force will not help you.

That is not only incorrect but it is absolutely impossible unless the rocket is close enough to the ground for the exhaust gases to "bounce back".
The velocity of the exhaust is well above the speed of sound, in fact usually over 3000 m/sec..
Any effect cannot be transmitted through a column of gas faster than the speed of sound.

Quote from: cikljamas
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???
Incorrect because the interaction is not in any "INFINITE vacuum" but in and at the exit of the bell of the nozzle where there certainly is no vacuum!

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.
That is quite irrelevant because the interaction is not "out the back somewhere" but right at the exit! There is no PROBLEM No 1.

After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.
An ion drive can provide a small thrust for well over 8.25 hours but not enough to put a rocket into orbit.

But why do you even suggest that it needs "fly for 8.25 hours continually"? Your "8.25 hours continually" is pure hogwash!
Once in orbit, no thrust is needed to keep it there! So There is no PROBLEM No 2.

Quote from: cikljamas
THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

Note: NASA says so - not me.
And YOU REMEMBER that while rocket engines "start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air" that the THRUST always increases as the external pressure decreases!

Look at the rocket thrust equation once again! (https://www.dropbox.com/s/e63c0hkzoyx1604/Goddard%20Rocket%20Equation%20-%20alone.png?dl=1)
As the external pressure, Po, decreases,
the thrust,  F always increases! So there is no PROBLEM No 3.

Quote from: cikljamas
THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.
That might be so if rockets "attained the so-called escape velocity" by being fired vertically as a projectile from a massive Jules Verne cannon:
(http://latam.aetn.com/THC/noticias/viajeluna.3.jpg)
But spacecraft escaping from the earth do not do that and I am sick and tired of explaining that they usually go into LEO first,
then a small part of the original launch mass is given an extra "burn" to achieve escape velocity from that distance from earth.

For example: From a LEO at 200 km, orbiting at 7784 m/s a spacecraft needs only an extra 3133 m/s to reach the moon's distance and about 3224 m/s escapes earth's gravitational field.

So there is no PROBLEM No 4.

The Expansion!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

Was this helpful in a sense that now you are ready to admit that there is no error in the following explanation :

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

WIKI QUOTE :

The U.S. (and for a while, the world) altitude record for unmanned balloons was 51.8 km (170,000 ft) (according to a 1991 edition of Guinness Book of World Records). The vehicle was a Winzen-Balloon with a volume of 1.35 million cubic metres, launched in October 1972 in Chico, California, USA.[citation needed]

During 2002 an ultra-thin-film balloon named BU60-1 made of polyethylene film 3.4 µm thick with a volume of 60,000 m³ was launched from Sanriku Balloon Center at Ofunato City, Iwate in Japan at 6:35 on May 23, 2002. The balloon ascended at a speed of 260 m per minute and successfully reached the altitude of 53.0 km (173,900 ft), breaking the previous world record set during 1972!

The Expansion!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

Sorry to burst your bubble of imagination, but in reality the air is the third body, not the second.

Inside the combustion chamber the gas expands and pushes in all directions.
On one side there is the opening to nozzle and on that side the gas doesn't push the wall.
Push on the other side doesn't get balanced and the rocket goes there.

Trying to close this into some box and isolate it into some different, closed system won't do the same thing in reality.

If there was atmospheric pressure around, it would press inwards from all directions, the fuel gas would expand less and push weaker.

Atmosphere doesn't just press on the nozzle, it presses on the nose as well, and cancels itself as a propulsion force contributor.
Title: Re: HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)
Post by: JackBlack on August 17, 2019, 02:43:18 PM
The Expansion!
That doesn't answer my question at all.
Spamming the same nonsense (even if presented in a slightly different way) is not going to help.

Again, the fuel starts off in the rocket, travelling at the same velocity as the rocket.
Then the fuel is burnt and the gas exits the rocket, travelling at a significant velocity relative to the rocket.
This means the velocity of the gas has changed significantly.
This means that the gas has accelerated.
As you have already accepted, in order for an object to accelerate a force need to be applied.
As you have already accepted, in order for a force to be applied an interaction with another object is needed to provide that force which will in turn provide a reactionary force.

So my question remains unanswered by you.
So again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

The way I see it there are 4 options:
1 - The rational option - The gas and rocket are 2 separate bodies. As the gas expands it presses against the rocket, interacting with it, forcing the rocket in one direction and the gas in the other. This means rockets do work in space.
2 - The gas is magically contained as there is no other body for it to interact with. No matter how great the pressure inside the combustion chamber and nozzle, the gas cannot leave the rocket, even though there is nothing to prevent it from doing so.
3 - Newtons third law doesn't apply. Instead an object can magically accelerate without any interaction with another body. This would mean your argument against rockets does not hold as the rocket would not need another body to interact with.
4 - Newtons second law doesn't apply. Instead an object can magically accelerate without any force. This would mean that rockets can accelerate without application of force so again your argument doesn't hold.

Or to simplify to 2 options:
1 - Rockets work in a vacuum.
2 - Reject physics.

So again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Do you know nothing about this topic? You try to prove that "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum" but seem to know nothing about the topic - figures!

Disturbances travel though fluids at the velocity of sound:
Quote from: Department of Physics, Princeton University
Pressure: transmission through a fluid (https://www.princeton.edu/~asmits/Bicycle_web/pressure.html)
An important property of pressure is that it is transmitted through the fluid. When an inflated bicycle tube is pressed at one point, for example, the pressure increases at every other point in the tube. Measurements show that the increase is the same at every point and equal to the applied pressure. For example, if an extra pressure of 5 psi were suddenly applied at the tube valve, the pressure would increase at every point of the tube by exactly this amount.

This property of transmitting pressure undiminished is a well established experimental fact, and it is a property possessed by all fluids. The transmission does not occur instantaneously, but at a rate that depends on the speed of sound in the medium and the shape of the container. The speed of sound is important because it measures the rate at which pressure disturbances propagate (sound is just a pressure disturbance travelling through a medium). The shape of the container is important because pressure waves refract and reflect of the walls of the container and this increases the distance and time the pressure waves need to travel. This phenomenon should be familiar to anyone who has experienced the imperfect acoustics of a poorly designed concert hall.

Well I was thinking of doing it like this.

Using the smallest rocket I can find. Like the size of a blackcat. Then keeping the pump running on maximum. That is the same setting I would run when doing cold plasma nitriding, which still holds a hard vacuum even with gas flow.

So a combination of that with the tiny nature of a rocket that small in an environment that is about 900ft3 with the pump running at max should squash all doubt I would think.

Also keep a split screen so the control screen can be seen that shows pressure etc.

Thanks rab, too bad I was so slow in finishing it. It is crazy how much flex is in the unit when pulling down a vacuum. Made me quite nervous the first time I tested it. Everything is within spec, but there is a noticable visable difference to say the least.

My friend has some left over fireworks from the forth and he has some small bottle rockets, excluding the stick, about 3 inches or so. That is what I was thinking of using.

Maybe just a plastic arm with a magnet on it that I stick to the side of the chamber. Put it towards the top and extend the arm about dead center.

Thanks rab, too bad I was so slow in finishing it. It is crazy how much flex is in the unit when pulling down a vacuum. Made me quite nervous the first time I tested it. Everything is within spec, but there is a noticable visable difference to say the least.

One problem with little (and big ;D) rockets in a vacuum is igniting them as the igniter material disperses into the vacuum before doing its job.

Spacecraft use hypergolic fuels in their RCS thrusters an usually hypergolic fuel or hypergolic igniters in space.
The lunar mission Ascent Stage used Aerozine 50 and dinitrogen tetroxide (as did the Titan IV from the ground - no exhaust flame).
But you can hardly use that.

None of these had vacuum chamber up to your standard but Cody'sLab had great trouble getting to burn.

Do you have a small chamber to check your ignition in a vacuum sorted out first?

I also want to make an interesting observation of Kepler’s system. It is not as  accurate  as  Mr.  Rabinoz  has  been  led  to  believe.  Professor  of  celestial  mechanics at Columbia University, Charles Lane Poor, shows us why:

From the time of Newton, it has been known that Kepler’s laws are mere approximations, computer’s fictions handy mathematical devices for finding the  approximate place of a planet in the heavens. They apply with greater accuracy to some planets  than  to  others. Jupiter and Saturn show the greatest  deviations from strictly elliptical motion. The latter body is often nearly a degree away from the place it would have been had its motion about the sun been strictly in accord with Kepler’s laws. This is such a large discrepancy that it can be detected by the unaided eye. The moon is approximately half a degree in diameter, so that the discrepancy in the motion of Saturn is about twice the apparent diameter of the moon. In a single year, during the course of one revolution about the sun, the Earth may depart from the theoretical   ellipse by an amount sufficient to appreciably change the apparent place of the sun in the heavens.

No! Because your explanations are pure hogwash!
Look at the rocket thrust equation again, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1). It was developed by folk far more knowledgeable than YOU!

As the external pressure, Po, decreases, the thrust, F always increases!

The rocket thrust equation, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1), is for one specific expansion ratio(bell exit area/throat area), and the bell exit area can be adjusted to alter the exhaust pressure, Pe.

But I'm getting totally sick and tired of explaining simple things like this to you only for you to respond with things like "So, rocketry mathematics doesn't add up?"

Sometimes you don't realize the weight of something you've been carrying until you feel the weight of its release.
Rockets can't fly in a vacuum, the earth is in the center of the universe, and Stipe Miočić is the greatest heavyweight of all time (according to Jon Jones), as simple as that.
UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones did not wait long to take a shot at arch-rival Daniel Cormier.
Just minutes after Cormier was knocked out by Stipe Miočić Saturday night (last night) at UFC 241: Cormier vs. Miocic 2, “Bones” jumped on social media and proclaimed Miočić “hands down the greatest heavyweight of all time. I have nothing else to say.”

I know why thank, you and I told YOU that in:
But Kepler still had no idea why these elliptical planetary orbits fitted so well. His work was still getting some geometric pattern that fitted the observed motion.

It wasn't to after Galileo Galilee's, Robert Hooke's and Isaac Newton's work that led to Newton's Laws of Motion and Universal Gravitation that a reason for Kepler's elliptical orbits was found.

But Kepler's Laws are only applicable to a two-bodied system with a small body (a planet) orbiting a large body (the Sun).
The Sun's mass is, however, so large compared to the total of all the other objects in the solar system that the Kepler's laws fitted well for the known inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

It would be incorrect to say that the Solar system is Kepler's system but it does fit Newton's Laws very closely with the only measurable difference being a slight excess in the precession of Mercury's orbit.
You, Mr Cikljamas, seem to have an attention span no better the proverbial gold fish.

And the Kepler solar system is just an approximation to the current heliocentric solar system.
Another:
Note that I omitted Kepler because until after the first part of the last century all astronomical calculations, including the predictions of where undiscovered planets might be were based on Newtonian Laws of Motion and Gravitation.

Indeed, the facts are true no matter how much you manage to repeatedly misunderstand.

While you are putting so much effort into misunderstanding, the world is continuing to launch rockets, put satellites in orbit, send people to the ISS, use satellite TV, satellite phones, satellite broadband, send probes across the solar system, spectacularly  tail-land boosters, launch amateur rockets and HABs, take pictures of the Apollo landers, rovers and footprints from lunar orbit, crash orbiters into the moon and observe the crash sites and so much more.

Then stop incorrectly "explaining" simple things like that (which you repeatedly misrepresent with your false extrapolation backed up by nothing at all) and instead focus on the simple question which has repeatedly been asked of you:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

You are yet to even try to honestly address this.
As a reminder:
We know there must be a force as the gas accelerates.
We know that this requires another body to interact with.

You found this quote on a flat earth website and immediately turned your brain off.
Goethe's attack Newton was quite vindictive and unjustified but it had nothing to do with Newton's Laws of Motion of of Universal Gravitation.

So, Rabinoz, Earth, Mars, Saturn and Jupiter are inner planets, according to your source???

Third example of Rabinoz's "seriousness" (sanity) :

To my quote of Goethe Rabinoz responds with two Goethe's quotes (lol) :

“It may be boldly asked where can the man be found, possessing the extraordinary gifts of Newton, who could suffer himself to be deluded by such a hocus-pocus, if he had not in the first instance willfully deceived himself; Only those who know the strength of self-deception, and the extent to which it sometimes trenches on dishonesty, are in a condition to explain the conduct of Newton and of Newton’s school.

In whatever way or manner may have occurred this business, I must still say that I curse this modern history theory of Cosmology, and hope that perchance there may appear, in due time, some young scientists of genius, who will pick up courage enough to upset this universally disseminated delirium of lunatics.” Johann Goethe

“Someday someone will write a pathology of experimental physics and bring to light all those swindles which subvert our reason, beguile our judgement and, what is worse, stand in the way of any practical progress. The phenomena must be freed once and for all from their grim torture chamber of empiricism, mechanism, and dogmatism; they must be brought before the jury of man’s common sense." Johann Goethe

Rabinoz, pay attention to the bolded words within Goethe's first quote above!!!

Goethe criticized Newton because he understood what was going on at the time was total fabrication. These guys are secret-societal liars who are playing with the minds of the herd. Their goal is to get the concept of spirit-godhead out of the minds of the 'goyim' and replace it with arithmetical calculations and materialism. It is socio-economic engineering. Just look at all the materialists atheists this false cosmology has spawned as opposed to all the spirituals and sages of the past who knew the Earth is in the center of the universe.

So what other physics, from the world’s perspective, do we have that does what Einstein’s GRT did for geocentrism? Lo and behold, Newton’s physics does the same thing for geocentrism that Einstein did – he makes it viable. Of course, Newton’s admission has been hidden from us for a long time, but it was finally released. As Steven Weinberg puts it in his latest book, "To Explain the World" :

If we were to adopt a frame of reference like Tycho’s in which the Earth is at rest, then the distant galaxies would seem to be executing circular turns once a year, and  in  general  relativity  this  enormous  motion  would  create  forces  akin  to gravitation, which would act on the Sun and planets and give them the motions of the Tychonic theory. Newton seems to have had a hint of this. In an unpublished ‘Proposition 43’ that did not make it into the Principia, Newton acknowledges that Tycho’s theory could be true if some other force besides ordinary gravitation acted on the Sun and planets.

Here is what Newton said in Proposition 43:

In order for the Earth to be at rest in the center of the system of the Sun, Planets, and Comets, there is required both universal gravity and another force in addition that acts on all bodies equally according to the quantity of matter in each of them and is equal and opposite to the accelerative gravity with which the Earth tends to the Sun... Since this force is equal and opposite to its gravity toward the Sun, the Earth can truly remain in equilibrium between these two forces and be at rest.  And thus celestial bodies can move around the Earth at rest,as in the Tychonic system.

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641

It is important to note that much of the resistance to what we call the Copernican Revolution derived from the fact that for some time it left many important questions unanswered - in particular, how the planets and stars moved and cohered without the celestial spheres. One central insight was the switch from Aristotles's belief in projectile motion, in which a moving object must be acted upon directly to keep moving, to the modern concept of INERTIA, in which a moving object keeps moving unless stopped by wind drag or something else.

 A related insight also contrary to Aristotle was Newton's MATHEMATICAL understanding of GRAVITY, which allowed bodies to act on one another from a distance without direct contact. In a letter to Dr. Bentley. Feb. 25th, 1692, Newton says ;— “ That gravitation should be innate and inherent in matter, so that one body can act upon another at a distance — is to me SO GREAT AN ABSURDITY, that I believe no man who has, in philosophical matters, a competent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it .” Yet many have fallen into this “great absurdity.” Such men therefore—according to Newton — have not "a competent faculty of thinking” in philosophical matters. I am happy to be in agreement with Sir Isaac on this important point. Sir Robert Ball says: — “The law of gravitation ... underlies the whole of Astronomy.” (Story of the Heavens, p. 122). It does not speak very well for the Astronomy, if it is founded on an acknowledged “great absurdity.” According to Newton's way of thinking, besides the ordinary actions of physical laws, God acted by sustaining the motion of celestial spheres, and by setting up the initial orbits of the planets and later preventing them from disintegrating. Newton didn't hesitate to appeal to extraordinary acts of God to explain features of the natural world.

 Nevertheless, many of Newton's successors thought Newton was suggesting that God had to "correct" his own regular actions. They preferred instead the notion of God manifesting his powers not with irregular actions in nature but strictly by establishing regular "laws" that governed the entire cosmos.

IN ADDITION :

Geocentricity detractors often appeal to the coriolis effect. It is, like the rest of the appeals, vain. The observations would be the same geocentrically or heliocentrically. Dr. Bouw covers it in detail in his books and explains how the coriolis *effect* becomes an actual coriolis *force* under a geocentric setup (and centrifugal force becomes centrifugal effect).

Here are some more quotes on the matter from some esteemed scientists:

The Coriolis effect arises, equally, whether the Earth rotates or the cosmos rotates. - Rick DeLano

"One need not view the existence of such centrifugal forces as originating from the motion of K [e.g.-the Earth]; one could just as well account for them as resulting from the average rotational effect of distant, detectable masses as evidenced in the vicinity of K, whereby K is treated as being at rest. - Albert Einstein, quoted in Hans Thirring, "On the Effect of Distant Rotating Masses in Einstein's Theory of Gravitation", Physikalische Zeitschrift 22, 29, 1921

"If one rotates the shell relative to the fixed stars about an axis going through its center, a Coriolis force arises in the interior of the shell, *that is, the plane of a Foucault pendulum is dragged around*" - Albert Einstein, cited in "Gravitation", Misner Thorne and Wheeler pp. 544-545.

"...Thus we may return to Ptolemy's point of view of a 'motionless earth'...One has to show that the transformed metric can be regarded as produced according to Einstein's field equations, by distant rotating masses. This has been done by Thirring. He calculated a field due to a rotating, hollow, thick-walled sphere and proved that inside the cavity it behaved as though there were centrifugal and other inertial forces usually attributed to absolute space. Thus from Einstein's point of view, Ptolemy and Corpenicus are equally right." - Max Born, "Einstein's Theory of Relativity", Dover Publications, 1962, pp 344 & 345

Why Don't More Scientists reject the heliocentric theory?

Some scientists admit the truth in their own words. Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz (of the Lorentz translation equations, foundation of the General Theory of Relativity) noted that:

"Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest…"

His great contemporary Henri Poincare confessed:

"A great deal of research has been carried out concerning the influence of the Earth’s movement. The results were always negative..."

Lincoln Barnett agrees:

“No physical experiment ever proved that the Earth actually is in motion.”

And one of the chief participants in the experiment that bears his name (Albert A. Michelson), stunned by the results that went counter to his own heliocentric reflex:

“This conclusion directly contradicts the explanation… which presupposes that the Earth moves.”


Astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle says:

“Today we cannot say that the Copernican theory is “right” and the Ptolemaic theory is “wrong” in any meaningful sense (…) Science today is locked into paradigms. Every avenue is blocked by beliefs that are wrong, and if you try to get anything published in a journal today, you will run up against a paradigm, and the editors will turn you down.”

In further startling evidence that the scientific community is stifling dissenting views, Alexander von Humboldt admitted:

“I have known too, for a long time that we have no argument for the Copernican system, but I shall never dare to be the first to attack it. Don't rush into the wasps' nest. You will bring upon yourself the scorn of the thoughtless multitude… to come forth as the first against opinions, which the world has become fond of - I don't feel the courage.”

In other words, the notion that the earth revolves around the sun having become dogma, its denial spells automatic excommunication from the scientific establishment. As for the unthinking masses, a lie need only be systematized in textbooks to pass for truth.

The circumstances surrounding Hubble’s interpretation of the redshift are intriguing. Hubble worked with Milton Humason, but only Hubble’s name is associated with the redshift/expansion theory. The primary reason is that Humason was very reluctant to provide evidence for an expanding universe. The scientific community, based on Einstein’s reworked mathematical formulas (courtesy of de Sitter and Friedmann), had already decided that the universe was expanding, but they were missing observational evidence. Consequently, the science community was predisposed to interpret redshift as a Doppler phenomenon wherein galaxies are understood to be moving away at great speeds from the observer.2 This is in the face of the fact that there was no proof for a connection between receding galaxies and redshift, or that galaxies are receding at all, or that redshift is to be interpreted as a Doppler shift. In a paper published in 1931 Humason wrote:

It is not at all certain that the large redshifts observed in the spectra are to be interpreted as a Doppler effect but, for convenience, they are interpreted in terms of velocity and referred to as apparent velocities.

Interestingly enough, regardless of what the science establishment now associates exclusively with Edwin Hubble, the fact remains that even Hubble never fully committed himself to the now popular interpretation. Hubble was quite aware of what the science community desired, but maintained his distance. He writes:

This explanation interprets redshifts as Doppler effects, that is to say, as velocity-shifts, indicating actual motion of recession. It may be stated with some confidence that redshifts are velocity-shifts or else they represent some hitherto unrecognized principle  in  physics....  Meanwhile,  redshifts  may  be  expressed  on a scale of velocities as a matter of convenience. They behave as velocity-shifts behave and they are very simply represented on the same familiar scale, regardless of the ultimate interpretation. The term “apparent velocity” may be used in carefully considered statements, and the adjective always implied where it is omitted in general usage.

As we have noted in our earlier discussion of Hubble, he then came to the place where he knew ?considering what he actually saw in his telescope? that there were only two options left to him. He writes:

Thus the use of dimming corrections leads to a particular kind of universe, but one which most students are likely to reject as highly improbable. Furthermore, the strange features of this universe are merely the dimming corrections expressed in different terms. Omit the dimming factors, and the oddities vanish. We are left with the simple, even familiar concept of a sensibly infinite universe. All the difficulties are transferred to the interpretation of redshifts which cannot then be the familiar velocity shifts....Meanwhile, on the basis of the evidence now available, apparent discrepancies between theory and observation must be recognized. A choice is presented, as once before in the days of Copernicus, between a strangely small, finite universe and a sensibly infinite universe plus a new principle of nature.[/color]

In response to the following quote :

I also want to make an interesting observation of Kepler’s system. It is not as accurate as Mr. Rabinoz has been led to believe. Professor of celestial mechanics at Columbia University, Charles Lane Poor, shows us why:

From the time of Newton, it has been known that Kepler’s laws are mere approximations,
<< No need to keep repeating it! I know it and accept it >>


...Rabinoz quotes this balderdash :
No, Mr Cikljamas, it was not balderdash!
If YOU bothered to read it you might have noted that it proved that you silly claim "It is not as accurate as Mr. Rabinoz has been led to believe" is completely untrue!

I have written many times, including directly to YOU, that Kepler's Laws are only an approximation to the solar system because they only apply to a 2-body system.

Can't you yet understand that the rocket thrust equation,
   (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1), is for one specific expansion ratio (bell exit area/throat area), and the bell exit area can be adjusted to alter the exhaust pressure, Pe.

But for that bell exit area/throat area the lower the outside pressure, Po, the higher the thrust!

The trouble is that you do not WANT to understand these things because to admit them might destroy you whole "World View"!

Thrust is that magic word you are looking for, isn't it?
Now what?

Now i am going to cite Newton's Third Law for umpteenth time in a row :
"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to that of the first body."

Perhaps Newton's third law should have specified (and highlighted the importance of) the relative masses of the two bodies involved. The bodies need to be of equal mass in order for the "equal in magnitude" part of this law to be true. Or perhaps Newton DID specify that - but NASA has simply decided to ignore this crucial part and are happy to use the above, less-than-accurate phrase in the hope of getting away with their stratospheric lies.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)

Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.

One interesting question for Rabinoz who "knows" how to think for himself (out of the box) :

OK, the rocket engine, rocket itself and the remains propellant together form one body and mass of burnt fuel is the other body - no problem there.

But, Newton's third law does not specify "the relative masses of the two bodies involved" for the simple reason that it's totally irrelevant.

Quote from: cikljamas

No, the bodies do not "need to be of equal mass". Stop making up your own "Laws of Motion".

The rocket thrust equation, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1), is quite correct as it, thank you Mr Cikljamas!

Newton's own wording of his second law, in English and slightly modernised, is force = change in momentum per unit time or force = rate of change in momentum.

And that is exactly what the "momentum component" of the rocket thrust equation represents.

I have already cited it.
The gas is accelerated away from the rocket.
This requires a force.
The only other body that can provide the reactionary force is the rocket.
Thus the rocket must be accelerated away from the gas.
Thus rockets can work in a vacuum.

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

The Expansion!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

Was this helpful in a sense that now you are ready to admit that there is no error in the following explanation :


Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

The U.S. (and for a while, the world) altitude record for unmanned balloons was 51.8 km (170,000 ft) (according to a 1991 edition of Guinness Book of World Records). The vehicle was a Winzen-Balloon with a volume of 1.35 million cubic metres, launched in October 1972 in Chico, California, USA.[citation needed]

During 2002 an ultra-thin-film balloon named BU60-1 made of polyethylene film 3.4 µm thick with a volume of 60,000 m³ was launched from Sanriku Balloon Center at Ofunato City, Iwate in Japan at 6:35 on May 23, 2002. The balloon ascended at a speed of 260 m per minute and successfully reached the altitude of 53.0 km (173,900 ft), breaking the previous world record set during 1972!

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do.
f = m a

The mass of the exhaust is less than the mass of the rocket.  The acceleration is greater than the acceleration of the rocket.  The force is equal, because conservation of energy is the kind of universe we live in.

Given your diagram, you seem to misunderstand that the masses don't need to be the same.  You also seem to think the end velocities need to be the same, this is also false.

Imagine you have two twins of equal weight on roller skates.  They're facing towards each other, and they push off each other.  You can expect that the end velocities to be the same, allowing for all the messiness of the real world.  Now imagine a big fat guy and a small child on roller skates facing towards each other.  They also push off each other.  What would you imagine to happen next?

This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do.

Why do you think it's not the case? Which part do you think is impossible?

Seriously? lol

Yes, seriously. Show me the logic and maths you used to come to that conclusion.

"lol" doesn't count as an answer.

Quote
Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum. Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram. I think our poor friend Isaac is rolling and howling in his grave - seeing how NASA is abusing / distorting his laws in order to fool the world. Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.

One interesting question for Rabinoz who "knows" how to think for himself (out of the box) :

If exhaust velocity of let's say Ariane 5 rocket is 2,7 km/s, then why don't we see 2,7 km long exhaust trail behind Ariana 5 rocket right after lift off??? 

Exhaust trail behind Ariana 5 rocket :
(https://i.postimg.cc/sxHVWD8h/ARIANA-5-LIFT-OFF.jpg)


Why? Why have you arbitrarily choosen "2.7km" as the length of the exhaust trail you want to see? Just because that's the number you saw for the exhaust velocity and it's now stuck in your head? Maybe the trail of hot but not flaming gases is a couple of km long, you just can't see it.

(https://i.postimg.cc/15WDty7p/ARIANA-5-LIFT-OFF-1.jpg)

The "smoke" trail behind the rocket is water vapour (Ariadne 5 is a LOX/LOH rocket). I don't know how long it would stay hot. I don't really care. I was just wondering why you thought the exhaust trail should be 2.7km long?

The typical one is that it isn't a vacuum as the rocket is generating a bunch of gas.
This means a very large vacuum chamber (or just space itself) is needed, at which point you end up dealing with large government agencies or corporations that would be dismissed as part of the conspiracy.

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense. If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one. Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks. If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.

A large vacuum chamber, say the size of a room, where someone remotely launches a small rocket would be much better.

Such a demonstration, if the rocket couldn't fly, would be monumental in its implications but for some reason no such demo can be found.

In 1963 the largest vacuum chamber was 25 feet.
In 1965 it was 90 feet.
In 1969 the record was set at 122 feet by NASA (the current largest in Europe is feet long)

Since 1969 there have been no attempts to build a larger vacuum chamber. Why? Why has so much of the technology of the Apollo missions been "lost" or abandoned?

Still tipping my hat to those taking their time to shoot down your arguments and so called evidence and logic.

You’re All Just a Bunch of Conspiracy Kooks
But, I thought that YOUR topic was, "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum".
What is the connection between that and "You’re All Just a Bunch of Conspiracy Kooks" or "the Heliocentrism vs. Geocentrism question!"

I guess you admit that Rockets really can fly in a vacuum and are onto your usual side-tracking rather than admit that you've lost!

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense.
Why?
Of course rocket experiences "air drag in front of the rocket" but that is against the direction of motion.

But your "existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it" is totally meaningless!

And object travelling through a fluid will experience an increased pressure in front, impeding its progress and a reduced pressure pressure behind, again impeding its progress.

Learn some fluid mechanics and aerodynamics!

Quote from: cikljamas
If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one.
It means no such thing! Apart from anything else as has been explained to you before no disturbance (drag on the exhaust plume or anything else) can be transmitted back up the supersonic exhaust plume.

Learn a little about supersonic flow!

NASA built the vacuum chamber to test Apollo systems and such vacuum chambers are extremely expensive.

But surely a 122 feet vacuum chamber is enough to test small rockets.

But why would NASA do that when rockets had been used in a vacuum for decades before that!

No, that is still your lie.

Yes, the rocket exhaust does displace the air.
That is related the expansion you have talked about earlier.
But other than that change in expansion, the gas has already left the rocket and thus it can no longer push on the rocket.
The rocket pushes off the exhaust.

And you still haven't answered the question.

A large vacuum chamber, say the size of a room, where someone remotely launches a small rocket would be much better.
So well beyond the realm of any hobiest and instead in the realm of large corporations and government entities where it would be dismissed as part of the conspiracy. Thanks for proving my point.

Since 1969 there have been no attempts to build a larger vacuum chamber. Why?
The real question isn't why hasn't there been. The real question should be why should they?
Just what is there that needs a larger and more expensive chamber that couldn't just be done in space?
Any test for a system can easily be done inside one of the smaller ones as long as the system fits inside.
There is no reason for a larger one.


Now care to answer the question:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

What a based message and of course jackblack completely ignored it lol.

From what I see of other tests, a simple rocket bought at a hobby store will not suffice. Will probably need to make something that can use it's own oxidizer...maybe a small hybrid rocket.

It doesn't seem cik would think mine is big enough, he said size of a room and mine is "only" about 900ft3. Which is actually very large for a vacuum chamber, but not the "size of a room".

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82766.0

Here is thread with pictures and design if anyone actually cares.

As for the rocket disturbing the vacuum itself, I don't think that will be an issue especially after watching other examples on YouTube. It should be large enough and able to pull a deep enough vacuum to have very little effect. Most of the ones on YouTube are tiny and have pumps that can't even pull 30. Certainly not a hard vacuum.

Also, remember it can flow nitrogen through the chamber during nitriding and still hold a deep vacuum. So I can just leave the pumps running during the test as well.


I doubt any of this will make any difference as it seems most people here don't care about the truth one way or another. Just want to keep slap fighting each other.

Is this foreplay?

I doubt that anything will convince those with a "religious belief" against a rocket working in a vacuum would ever be convinced.
But experiments like this seem worthwhile (to those of us not footing the bill ;D) because it is more evidence against the deniers.
Yours might be "only" about 900ft3 but it's far bigger than any chamber I've seen used.

Quote from: Bom Tishop

That's the big problem.
Most deniers seem unmoved by real evidence and most of the rest are quite prepared to accept the basic physics.

On the practical side.
It would be good to measure the static thrust in normal air pressure and under vacuum. Then with the exhaust facing a wall and far from a wall.

I do hope that the residue won't contaminate your chamber - if there's a risk of that it might be prudent not to go ahead.

But it's up to you. If I wore a hat "I'd dip me lid to you :)."

It seems to me that you need our approval for conducting your experiment? As far as i am concerned you have (my) approval. If you can meet basic scientific conditions (which could pass scientific peer review) for conducting scientifically well-grounded experiment, then what stopping you from carrying it forward? If you want me to keep my mouth shut while JackBlack, Rabinoz and others are viciously biting and barking (in this one man fighting many show), then just say it...As for me this show is over, anyway, so the mic is all yours...Good luck, and don't worry...i am the last person in this world who would be afraid of acknowledging validity of scientifically verified (non-biased, genuine) experiments!!! Looking forward for the final results of your awesome enterprise!!!

No, I don't think you should just keep your mouth shut at all. If you read the first or second post I wrote in this thread I said you were doing a great job at standing your ground with everyone after you. Said you were doing well in supporting your case.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Was thinking of making a slide out of plastic (I make things mainly out of metals, but was going to use plastic so it can be clear to avoid people saying trickery etc) and have it stuck to the top. The very top unscrews (that is why I keep one of my hoist over it to make opening easier), so was going to stick the rocket and everything else on that.

The rocket at that point will be about 14 feet away from the bottom.

I think this will be the easiest, most efficient way for mounting. Will have a go pro next to it and a very bright light, all stuck on with separate magnets.

All of those should be relatively quick to construct.  The only hold up is the actual rocket itself. From seeing other videos, you have to encapsulate it for them to even light. I don't want to do that.

I am thinking of a possible hybrid rocket, made of solid acrylic with a gas oxidizer. Though that can get complicated when trying to operate in the chamber sealed. So I am still pondering on the best way to simulate the actual rocket. It's about the only hold up currently. As chamber contamination isn't a monster concern as long as it is within reason. I also don't want to spend a ridiculous amount of time building the rocket either if possible.

I hope you are gonna find feasible solution to the actual rocket problem, and once everything is finalized, i've no doubts that we will  remember it (and pay homage to it) as one of a kind decisive amateur experiment, like this one :

Extended Michelson-Morley Interferometer experiment. English version :

Martin Grusenick, an experimenter in Germany, has repeated the Michelson-Morley interferometer experiment with a rather simple laser set-up and has found - to no great surprise - that rotating his apparatus horizontally, no shifts in the interference fringes are observed. Grusenick however had another idea. He modified his apparatus to make it possible to rotate in a vertical plane ... documenting his results in a video above...

I've paid homage to Grusenick's experiment with this video :

This guy did the experiment. Version 2 where he learned some stuff from commenters. It might give everyone some insights into how to perform the experiment so it's a whatever level of conclusivity and so that it doesn't blow up Bom's workshop:

mmm yes we all believe that you still have a chamber and your rocket fuel expand filling the tube with oxide for the rocket to pouch against so come up with a more solid explanation and a system that will keep the vacuum and no particles in that vacuum as we have it in apparent space as we have been told but no physical prove to date.

this  is in no way any proof that a rocket will fly in a vacuum !!! Launch a rocket from the bottom of a large 4 inch pipe at least 20 feet tall and pull a vacuum and leave the pump running and if it can't hit the top your so called proof is debunked!!!

It's not an absolute proof, your rocket can push against the bottom of your tube.

your ignorance and stupidity is more than sad.  the vacuum chamber contains still about 5 - 10% of the normal air pressure . that is not even near to the vacuum in that the iss allegedly flies. furthermore it demonstrates the complete contrary of your statement.

And now, i warmly recommend everyone to read this very important comment which sums up the whole problem with these vacuum chamber experiments :

Markoul11

Sir,

Just two points and a conclusion.

1) Very High speed cameras 2,500 FPS and not the 1200 FPS you are using, are clearly showing that in a vacuum chamber the chamber gets FIRST, pressurized by the rocket exhaust gases during the ignition or detonation phase locally in the vicinity where the rocket is located inside the tube and only then and after,  it starts to move forward. You can also see this in your experiment, the pressure gauge ticked for a brief moment when the rocket was fired.

This delay is NOT because the inertia of the rocket and we can calculate this, which considerring the mass of your rocket is almost null.

This instanteneous local presuarization is much larger than the gauge tickle shown in your experiment and is only partially registered by the gauge meter because the relative large response time of the meter.

Furthermore, making the chamber in the form of a relative narrow tube you use in your experiment, makes things even worse pressure vise, adding to the build up of local pressure during ignition of rocket. Considering the rocket you used, you tube should be at minimum 20cm in diameter (for this small rocket a 3 meter distance from the bottom end of the tube should be enough).

2) I quote:

"All propellants in a vacuum must be compressed by an extra one atmosphere (101325 pa) to compensate for the loss of ambient  pressure, in order to ignite using thermal activation, alternatively the propellant must be ignited using a detonation charge,..  Cody failed to do this,..a mistake I  also made with at first,...P"
end quote

So now , you admit that there is  pressurized air inside the rocket casing. Certainly not for a sustained thrust but just enough for a push!

Tip: Next time during ignition leave the vacuum pump ON and working AND CLOSE TO THE ROCKET exhaust!!

I rest my case. :)

Conclusion:

1) All these vacuum chamber experiments are destined to fail to emulate rocket thrust in space and and don't produce conclusive results therefore deemed as unsuitable and can not be used as proof.

2) There is not such thing in science like final conclusion or absolute proof.

3) So far latest very high speed camera tests show that Newton's 3rd law is not applicable for chemical thrust rockets in space.

I am sorry to steer this matter again Sir but it catch my eye and couldn't leave it without a proper response.

That's all fine and well. I wasn't posting the video as "proof" that rockets work in a vacuum but more for how an experiment should or should not be conducted. I think I got my answer.

Basically what you're saying is that no experiment in a vacuum chamber would suffice - There is no non-space based experiment that would adequately demonstrate a rocket working in a vacuum for you? Do I have that right?

Just trying to make it so Bom and others don't waste their time trying to set something up only to have you, or the likes of you, perpetually conjure up reasons why your errant belief system is so blind that even a physical experiment is invisible to you.

Great, so instead of being a dick about it, why don't you help us design an experiment that would answer the question, "Do rockets work in a vacuum?"

What would a well designed experiment look like? Is Bom's chamber big enough? What kind of rocket engine would we use? Etc., You know, practical insights rather than just copy and pasting comments that support your world view about a video that doesn't.

It seems that you aren't giving details so if the experiment works and shows that rockets don't work in a vacuum you can just pick out some "flaw" and dismiss it.

No one is panicking. I have mountains of evidence to support my position already. You have literally none. I don't need any new experiments to prove me right. So I'm cool as a cucumber.

But I'm all for breaking CFC's vacuum in with a rocket experiment. I think it would be interesting to do so. It's just that I know your kind. So the best order of business is for you to clearly state how the experiment should be performed that would satisfy that it was done correctly. So lay it on us. How should it be set up? What's a worthy vacuum level needed? Having the engine push on a scale? If it's sufficiently high enough in the chamber, does that remove the "It's pushing of the walls/bottom" argument? etc.

Be helpful, not a hindrance if you really want to seek the truth.

You are scared to death, sonny boy, i can feel your horror, it's very tangible...

Should i quote Bom Tishop, once again?

Here we go :

Quote 1 : As for the rocket disturbing the vacuum itself, I don't think that will be an issue especially after watching other examples on YouTube. It should be large enough and able to pull a deep enough vacuum to have very little effect. Most of the ones on YouTube are tiny and have pumps that can't even pull 30. Certainly not a hard vacuum.

Also, remember it can flow nitrogen through the chamber during nitriding and still hold a deep vacuum. So I can just leave the pumps running during the test as well.


Quote 2 : Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Was thinking of making a slide out of plastic (I make things mainly out of metals, but was going to use plastic so it can be clear to avoid people saying trickery etc) and have it stuck to the top. The very top unscrews (that is why I keep one of my hoist over it to make opening easier), so was going to stick the rocket and everything else on that.

The rocket at that point will be about 14 feet away from the bottom.

I think this will be the easiest, most efficient way for mounting. Will have a go pro next to it and a very bright light, all stuck on with separate magnets.

All of those should be relatively quick to construct.  The only hold up is the actual rocket itself. From seeing other videos, you have to encapsulate it for them to even light. I don't want to do that.

I am thinking of a possible hybrid rocket, made of solid acrylic with a gas oxidizer. Though that can get complicated when trying to operate in the chamber sealed. So I am still pondering on the best way to simulate the actual rocket. It's about the only hold up currently. As chamber contamination isn't a monster concern as long as it is within reason. I also don't want to spend a ridiculous amount of time building the rocket either if possible.


So, he definitely knows very well what he has to do, and you are definitely scared to death sunny boy!!!

Now it's time to relax : Stay tuned and keep being cool as a cucumber, sunny boy!!!

Interesting, your perceptions regarding another's demeanor are even more faulty than your logic regarding, well pretty much everything. But cool, as long as you're on board and you're helping to define and drive the experiment, that's great.

Looking forward to the results, carry on.

Hybrid rockets are usually far more simple to build.  No cryogenic plumbing or pumps to worry about.  That and you can use just about anything flammable as the fuel.

Ok, one good thing I have gotten out of this so far is there needs to be a scale at the top of the plastic slide. That was we can see the comparison of vacuum vs none.

I started drawing up some ideas on solid works for the slide, but will need to figure out the dimensions of the rocket before finishing. Will need to send that off to my friend to make, as all my machinery is designed for metal works.

The rocket is the only thing that is the hold up currently

Wonder when a FEer will say "the moment the rocket started firing there were then gases in the chamber for it to push against". I imagine the vacuum pump wouldn't work fast enough to remove the gases during firing.

Of course that can be countered by observing that, if true, the rockets thrust should increase as the gas pressure rises, though you'd have to be very sure your engines power remains constant throughout the experiment.

As I recall, one of the arguments is that the propellant can't burn in a vacuum in the first place, so that's the first domino that needs to tumble.

Of course that can be countered by observing that, if true, the rockets thrust should increase as the gas pressure rises, though you'd have to be very sure your engines power remains constant throughout the experiment.

Yeah, this is the problem with all these little hobby rockets.  There seems to be a significant delay between ignition and achieving full thrust. 

That just make rocket deniers think that you only get the thrust as the chamber fills with gas.  It’s not helped by the fact there’s a lot of smoke, which just looks bad, even if the pressure is actually still low.

I once suggested to the makers of one of these videos they could ditch the rocket entirely, and replace with an air line from an air cylinder or compressor to an appropriate nozzle.  That would allow them to get a steady full flow virtually instantaneously.

Hook up the nozzle to a force or strain gauge on the support, and use a pressure transducer to monitor pressure in the chamber.  Use a computer, digital oscilloscope, or data logger to record all results. 

Plot a graph of both nozzle force and chamber pressure wrt time.

If the rocket deniers are right, the force should start at zero and gradually climb as air is let into the chamber.  If regular physics is right, the force should be applied instantly and even drop slightly over time (assuming the pressure regulator is outside the vacuum chamber).

Repeat test for chamber at atmospheric pressure as a control.  Plot these results too.

And for Gods sake, spend some time discussing results.  These guys always spend most of the time describing how they built the thing, then just say “yep, that works”.  It’s kind of infuriating to be honest.

I think there's a much easier way you can demonstrate that pressure differences move vessels around even in a vacuum.  Any chance you can rig remote-controlled scissors?  Might be simpler than a fuse detonator.

What I'm thinking this: slightly inflate a balloon and tie it off.  Put the slightly-inflated balloon in the vacuum chamber's platform and pump out the chamber's air.  (This will also give us a cool visual of the balloon inflating in the vacuum.)  Then, snip the balloon.  What happens next?

If rocket exhaust needs to push off of air in order for rockets to be propelled, then it should also be the case that balloon air needs to push off of air in order for the balloon to be propelled, right?  So then if the balloon goes pbthpbhptbhtpbht and flies off its platform, then it should be the same with rockets going pfsshooooooeeerrrrrhhhh and flying around space.

Rocket deniers, tell me if I'm wrong here.

Yes, your post is what got me thinking.  All the smoke and sparkle of a hobby rocket could give deniers an excuse to ignore the results, as you said.  Perhaps with a simple balloon we could get rid of that.

(Although I'm actually more interested in hearing illogical excuses as to how balloons really are pushing off air or whatever when they flbplbpfpbpbbb around a room.)

Ok, one good thing I have gotten out of this so far is there needs to be a scale at the top of the plastic slide. That was we can see the comparison of vacuum vs none.

I started drawing up some ideas on solid works for the slide, but will need to figure out the dimensions of the rocket before finishing. Will need to send that off to my friend to make, as all my machinery is designed for metal works.

The rocket is the only thing that is the hold up currently

Here's another experiment that shows two things, how it can be difficult to keep the model rocket engine burning up to full capacity. And for two, how a rocket does, in fact, work in a vacuum. (The successful test starts at around 4:30):

Since combustion is impossible in a vacuum how you can get the following result (a flame - exhaust trail) in a vacuum chamber assuming that all air has been sucked out of this "vacuum" chamber?
As stated repeatedly, the rocket carries its own fuel and oxidiser, which are combined and reacted, creating pressurised gas. This results in a flame and exhaust trail.
Do you know what that means?
It means that exhaust needs to be accelerated.
That means the exhaust needs a force applied, and a second body to interact with which itself will be forced and accelerated.
And if the only thing there is the exhaust and the rocket, the rocket has to be the second body which means the rocket will have a force applied by the exhaust. So rockets will work in a vacuum.
This will happen in space as well.

Unlike what some people claim, the gas doesn't magically vanish instantaneously.

Does this mean if you see a flame or exhaust you will reject the test just like I assumed?

Firstly, in the first part of this video you can clearly see how the model rocket engine (firecracker) can't burn in a vacuum :


After Cody encapsulated firecracker (which was surrounded by air contained inside the capsule) then it burned because the rocket was NOT in a vacuum. The burn was created by the air inside the capsule.
In consequence, the rocket moved because of the PRESSURE BURST (the bullet and the gun recoil analogy) of the capsule, nothing else!

Secondly, what has been shown in this very video proves without the doubt that the experiment to which i am referring was severely corrupted (too much air left (or produced in the very beginning of the experiment) in that "vacuum" chamber)! :

Next few quotes will be the best way to reply to such classical JB stupidity :

A notorious facts - No 1 :

No experiment has ever been performed with such excruciating persistence and meticulous precision, and in every conceivable manner, than that of trying to detect and measure the motion of the Earth. Yet they have all consistently and continually yielded a velocity for the Earth of exactly ZERO mph.

The toil of thousands of exasperated researchers, in the extremely varied experiments of Arago, De Coudre's induction, Fizeau, Fresnell drag, Hoek, Jaseja's lasers, Jenkins, Klinkerfuess, Michelson-Morley interferometry, Lord Rayleigh's polarimetry, Troughton-Noble torque, and the famous 'Airy's Failure' experiment, all conclusively failed to show any rotational or translational movement for the earth, whatsoever."

You can search all 29 volumes of this final authority on all scientific matters (Encyclopedia Britannica) but you will look in vain for any PROOF for this revolution of the earth around the sun and its spinning on its axis every 24 hours. It is simply stated as DOGMA and to doubt is to be damned to a spinning hell forever by the "scientific" community.

Many "astronomers" cite the Foucault pendulum experiment that was carried out in Paris in 1851 as PROOF that the earth turns. It's a pity that the NASA space program has not provided them with more recent proof.

FOUCAULT DEBUNKED by Rob Durham :


FOUCAULT DEBUNKED by me :


A notorious facts - No 2 :

David Berlinski an author academic, agnostic, secular Jew got it spot on In his book 'The devil's delusion'...

Has anyone provided a proof of God’s inexistence? Not even close.

Has quantum cosmology explained the emergence of the universe or why it is here? Not even close.

Have the sciences explained why our universe seems to be fine-tuned to allow for the existence of life? Not even close.

Are physicists and biologists willing to believe in anything so long as it is not religious thought? Close enough.

Has rationalism in moral thought provided us with an understanding of what is good, what is right, and what is moral? Not close enough.

Has secularism in the terrible twentieth century been a force for good? Not even close to being close.

Is there a narrow and oppressive orthodoxy of thought and opinion within the sciences? Close enough.

Does anything in the sciences or in their philosophy justify the claim that religious belief is irrational? Not even ballpark.

Is scientific atheism a frivolous exercise in intellectual contempt? Dead on.

Francis Crick, one of the co-discoverers of the double helix structure of DNA, lamented:
An honest man, armed with all the knowledge available to us now, could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at the moment to be almost a miracle, so many are the conditions which would have been satisfied to get it going.

Abiogenesis is not only unproven, it is mathematically impossible. No wonder both Orgel and Crick called it a miracle. Other scenarios have therefore been suggested. Hoyle and others postulate life was transplanted from outer space — which moves the origins problem to another time and place. The multiverse hypothesis, proposed by leading origin-of-life researcher Eugene Koonin, is currently in vogue—it replaces infinite time with an infinity of universes to account for the extraordinarily improbable existence of at least one life-sustaining planet.

Behe quotes Klaus Dose:
More than 30 years of experimentation on the origin of life in the fields of chemical and molecular evolution have led to a better perception of the immensity of the problem of the origin of life on Earth rather than to its solution. At present all discussions on principal theories and experiments in the field either end in stalemate or in a confession of ignorance.

Biologists J. T. Trevors and D. L. Abel conclude:

"The argument has been repeatedly made that given sufficient time, a genetic instruction set and language system could have arisen. But extended time does not provide an explanatory mechanism for spontaneously generated genetic instruction. No amount of time proposed thus far, can explain this type of conceptual communication system. It is not just complex. It is conceptually complex."

These probability arguments are irrefutable. Some evolutionists offer hand-waving contrary arguments, but even Richard Dawkins admits "the probability of life having arisen by chance is as vanishingly small as the likelihood of a Jumbo Jet having being constructed by a hurricane sweeping through a scrap yard."

"This is the evidence which has evolutionists completely stymied, and it is perfectly obvious why: anyone
considering the degree and quality of the complexity found in biological systems will recognize, based on logic and unvarying experience, that such complexity cannot and does not arise accidentally. Nor have scientists suggested how it could have happened. "[N]one of the papers published in JME [the Journal of Molecular Evolution] over the entire course of its life as a journal," says Behe, "has ever proposed a detailed model by which a complex biochemical system might have been produced in a gradual, step-by-step Darwinian fashion."

Behe lists several biochemical systems which might be candidates for such studies; then he continues:

"The very fact that none of these problems is even addressed, let alone solved, is a very strong indication that Darwinism is an inadequate framework for understanding the origin of complex biochemical systems. . . . The reason for this appears to be similar to the reason for the failure to explain the origin of life: a choking complexity strangles all such attempts."

The problem is so insuperable that Stanley Crick, Nobel prize winner and co-discoverer of the structure of the DNA molecule, was driven to speculate that life did not originate on earth at all, but that the earth was "seeded" by extraterrestrials. The magnitude of the complexity of living things is difficult to convey in simple, short sentences. Perhaps it may merely be said that living things are typified by a chain of complexity within complexity, almost endlessly, beyond this observer's capacity for amazement. There can be no substitute for a more detailed description.

Of course people will differ on the point at which they decide to break rules. But at least with the realistic criterion there could be evidence against the unfalsifiable. At least then people like Doolittle and Miller would run a risk when they cite an experiment that shows the opposite of what they had thought. At least then science would have a way to escape from the rut of unfalsifiability and think new thoughts. (Michael Behe, “Answering Scientific Criticisms of Intelligent Design,” Science and Evidence for Design in the Universe, Proceedings of the Wethersfield Institute, Vol 9:146-147 (Ignatius Press, 2000).)

    Mere possibility is not an adequate basis for asserting scientific plausibility. A precisely defined universal bound is needed beyond which the assertion of plausibility, particularly in life-origin models, can be considered operationally falsified. … But at some point our reluctance to exclude any possibility becomes stultifying to operational science. Falsification is critical to narrowing down the list of serious possibilities. Almost all hypotheses are possible. Few of them wind up being helpful and scientific ally productive. Just because a hypothesis is possible should not grant that hypothesis scientific respectability. More attention to the concept of “infeasibility” has been suggested. Millions of dollars in astrobiology grant money have been wasted on scenarios that are possible, but plausibly bankrupt. The question for scientific methodology should not be, “Is this scenario possible?” The question should be, “Is this possibility a plausible scientific hypothesis?” One chance in 10^200 is theoretically possible, but given maximum cosmic probabilistic resources, such a possibility is hardly plausible. With funding resources rapidly drying up, science needs a foundational principle by which to falsify a myriad of theoretical possibilities that are not worthy of serious scientific consideration and modeling. (David L. Abel, “The Universal Plausibility Metric (UPM) & Principle (UPP),” Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling, Vol. 6:27 (Dec. 3, 2009).)

To the question, “Many prominent scientists - including Darwin, Einstein, and Planck - have considered the concept of God very seriously. What are your thoughts on the concept of God and on the existence of God?” Christian Anfinsen replied: “I think only an idiot can be an atheist. We must admit that there exists an incomprehensible power or force with limitless foresight and knowledge that started the whole universe going in the first place.” (Anfinsen, as cited in Margenau and Varghese, ‘Cosmos, Bios, Theos’, 1997, 139).

Darwin said of his theory, that there would be ample evidence (in the future) of transitional forms to prove his theory.  Evidence of tens of thousands of fossils of transitional 'species' should have been found by now, but archeologists have not found one that's not heavily disputed.

The complexity in biological life forms cannot be by chance. The DNA is a programme that guides so many activities within the cell and not only that it can replicate itself. It is as though it is a living organism on its own. The numerous codes it has cannot align by chance. My only problem is  just that those who push for intelligent design are usually religious scientists with an  obvious agenda i.e. to show validity for the belief in their God. Richard Dawkins did agree to the possibility of an intelligent design but it does not mean that that designer is God as presented in the bible or Quoran. It simply means there is an intelligence behind biological life period.?

 odiupicku
Yes, but the question is this : How exactly high such intelligence should be in order to be capable to create such a complex life within such a complex universe? Could it be any lower type of intelligence than we supposed to be an intelligence of God himself??

IN ADDITION :

Atheists in fact hate the Scientific Method and refuse to employ it. Example: 100 years of random genetic mutation experimentation provides consistent results demonstrating that random mutations are destructive and negative to organisms, both biochemically and anatomically, and does not add anything incrementally to the anatomy of organisms. Conclusion? Mutation cannot be a mechanism for accruing change that results in macroevolution. But what does the atheist conclude despite the evidence? They continue believing that random mutation IS a mechanism for accruing change that results in mind-bending complexity, microscopic interdependent machinery, and macroevolution, not because of science, but because their worldview requires it to be, since if evolution were true, random mutation would have to be the base mechanism for evolution, since genetic information defines organisms. In this way, they refuse to come to the correct conclusion because of their paradigm, tossing out the Scientific Method and the conclusion it would require them to accept.

Examples of how atheists refuse to comply with the Scientific Method are nearly countless, and found in all fields of science. I would say that based upon this fact, atheists are incapable of being objective, responsible scientists in any field of science which relates to the universe, organic life, or history.

Anthony Flew, once the word's foremost atheist academic who's former arguments are the posters upheld by atheists today, converted to a theist and creationist because of the biological evidence.

Underwater is pretty much the exact opposite of a vacuum.  The increased water pressure allows the fuel and oxidizer to stay together long enough to ignite.

As mentioned previously, I am not sure whether you are posting what you post for giggles or you actually do believe it. I've got a feeling that you do, and the above posts indicate you tend to be a conspiracy theorist which explains a lot.

Others on this and other threads deal with your mistaken assertions quite well, but just picking up on one of your links, the 'Challenger crew are still alive and well' conspiracy theory is one of the many which are just plain illogical. But who said logic plays any part in a conspiracy theorist's reasoning. There are many debunks of the 'crew is still alive CT' as I'm sure you are aware, this being one of them:

http://www.sciencedenierhallofshame.com/debunked/are-the-crew-members-of-1986-space-shuttle-challenger-still-alive/

I doubt though that this and other similar debunks of the other CTs you've posted will ever make you stop and think again. As mentioned previously, CTers don't view the world rationally and the belief system is usually unshakeable given that CTism is hard wired into their thought process, as it seems to be with you. 

Still tipping my hat to those taking their time to shoot down your arguments and so called evidence and logic.

 You’re All Just a Bunch of Conspiracy Kooks

Keating:  page  80:  Quoting  Wood:  “Characterizing  scientist  as  arrogant,   deceptive,   or   purely   driven   by   philosophical   bias   doesn’t help your case at all. It makes you sound like conspiracy kooks.”

Sungenis: We don’t characterize scientists in that way, except when they clearly reveal they are that way. Let me give you two examples. One regarding  a  philosophical  bias  against  creationism and one regarding a philosophical bias toward  geocentrism, in spite of what the evidence shows. Here is evolutionist, Richard Lewontin:

We  take  the  side  of  science  in  spite  of  the  patent  absurdity  of  some of its constructs, in spite of its failure to fulfill many of its extravagant promises of health and life, in spite of the tolerance of  the  scientific  community  for  unsubstantiated  just-so  stories,  because   we   have   a   prior   commitment,   a   commitment   to   materialism. It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow  compel  us  to  accept  a  material  explanation  of  the  phenomenal  world,  but,  on  the  contrary,  that  we  are  forced  by  our a-priori  adherence  to  material  causes  to  create  an  apparatus  of  investigation  and  a  set  of  concepts  that  produce  material  explanations,  no  matter  how  counterintuitive,  no  matter  how  mystifying  to  the  uninitiated. Moreover,  that  materialism  is  absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door.

Here is physicist Stephen Hawking

...all  this  evidence  that  the  universe  looks  the  same  whichever  direction  we  look  in  might  seem  to  suggest  there  is  something  special  about  our  place  in  the  universe.  In  particular,  it  might  seem  that  if  we  observe  all  other  galaxies  to  be  moving  away  from us, then we must be at the center of the universe.16 There is, however,  an  alternate  explanation:  the  universe  might  look  the  same in every direction as seen from any other galaxy, too. This, as we have seen, was Friedmann’s second assumption. We have no  scientific  evidence  for,  or  against,  this  assumption.  We  believe   it   only   on   grounds   of   modesty:   it   would   be   most   remarkable  if  the  universe  looked  the  same  in  every  direction  around us, but not around other points in the universe.


Not sure how your post is meant to show that you're not a conspiracy theorist, but take it from me, it doesn't.

I am also sure that you are aware of all the debunks to the CTs you may believe in. You showed one of WTC and the BBC reporter and she gave a perfectly reasonable explanation of why she reported what she did. But of course you are not likely to believe this or any other perfectly reasonable explanation of any other event which conspiracy theorists think suspicious, funny, doesn't look right, it's the illuminati, etc., etc., and whatever other reason causes them be incredulous at 'stuff just happens to happen'.

And the same goes for your 'rockets don't work in a vacuum' belief.

You are arguing against a fact and a body of plainly obvious everyday evidence that they do. Ultimately, given this is your assertion it's up to you to provide the evidence that they don't. And you will of course fail.

In the meantime, feel free to watch this video :


He's assuming that Skylab itself is not precessing at the same rate as the gyro.  Don't forget that Skylab was free floating too and used control moment gyros for stabilization and maneuvering as needed.

Who is he? Bob Knodel (the narrator) or are you referring to the author of the original video ("odiupicku" that is to say : me myself)? He (Bob) got it right, and you obviously have no idea what you are talking about! Since Skylab should have been always (allegedly) aligned (top-up and bottom-down) with the surface of the earth (while precessing wrt absolute (fixed) spatial orientation) it means that Skylab had to use some device(s) (control moment gyros) for stabilization in order to remain constantly in the same position with respect to the earth, and that was exactly what the author of the original video (me myself) and Bob Knodel assumed while pointing out this spectacular NASA's giveaway. The core of my argument is this : Since we assume that Skylab (while hurtling 27600 km/h around the earth) constantly changed it's spatial orientation in space (while precessing wrt absolute (fixed) spatial orientation) why there was no indication of that spatial change with respect to a rigid gyro (toy) presented in that fraudulent experiment conducted by NASA astronut? What would induce/cause a rigid gyro (toy) to follow (to keep the pace with) Skylab's constant orientation/spatial adjustment wrt Earth's surface (in it's orbit around the earth) which Skylab allegedly managed to keep by using so called control moment gyros (as you pointed out)? What? Magic? I won't continue on this, or any other derailing sub-topic, because we have to constrain ourselves from further blabbing and ranting (in this particular thread) in order to show due respect to our experimenter Bom Tishop and his exceptional work in progress...

Post by: JackBlack on August 22, 2019, 02:10:02 PM
My reply to JackBlack is going to serve as a perfect response to all other liars and cowards (as well),
So it serves as a response to you?

i will be left with no option
No you still have the option of admitting you are spouting a load of crap and not bothering to honestly address the issues.
After all, that is the vastly more likely option given you are completely incapable of unwilling to answer a very simple question:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

A notorious facts - No 1 :
You seem to have mistyped. What followed was not a fact, it was a blatant lie.
A lie which has been repeatedly refuted, and which has nothing at all to do with the topic of this thread.

Likewise, your religious nonsense with shifting of the burden of proof has nothing to do with the thread either.

So yes, I think the far more likely conclusion is that you are the one panicking sonny boy.
Your arguments are repeatedly being destroyed so you are resorting to the same pathetic spam all to avoid admitting you were wrong/continue the trolling.

So care to actually address what has been asked?
So far there are 2 key points relating to rockets in a vacuum/space:
1 - Just what requirements do you have for a demonstration that rockets work in a vacuum? So far you reject every experiment that shows you are wrong, because you come up with some excuse to invalidate it.
So, why not actually tell us just what it is you require? If you cared about the truth, it would be easy. If you are just wanting to reject everything, then you likely wont tell us (or set up impossible standards) so you can then dismiss it when it shows you are wrong.

2 - What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
We know that because the gas starts stationary relative to the rocket, and ends up moving relative to it, it (or the rocket, or both) needs to be accelerated.
We know that as it has a mass, it needs a force to do so.
We know that all forces require an interaction with a second body.
We know that the only other thing near the gas in the vacuum is the rocket.
So it sure seems like the rocket is the only option for the second body.
That would mean that the rocket would be forced by the gas, and thus accelerate.
That would mean that rockets do work in a vacuum, at the very least, cold gas thruster versions.
So can you answer the question and provide an alternative, or can you admit you were wrong and admit that rockets do in fact work in a vacuum?

"Do you have an explanation how the operation continued while the survival operation temperature limit was 60 degrees celcius but 107 degrees exist on the moon? Your tears can not cool down the temperature."
Answer:
4-12 layers of aluminumized Mylar, in the outer vacuum layers of the suit.
It works like having 4-12 Thermoses inside each other.
They do have a internal heat issue, so they slowly evaporate a gallon of water off a sublimation plate on the back of the back pack. Which is attached to lots of small water caring tubes against their skin. I saw one image of the steam on an image of them on the moon.

No, that isn't what I said.  I was saying that it's entirely possible that Skylab and the gyroscope were precessing at the same rate relative to the earth, but not relative to each other.

Yes. I miss worded what I said.
Yes.


I guess the claim I just wanted to make is a gyroscope will never show precession in actual free fall relative to another body in the same free fall. (Like the camera man.) Since the earth’s surface isn’t freefall precession can be seen.


I’m also assuming skylab’s orientation was controlled and the ISS is controlled. Wouldn’t want them to tumble.

Since combustion is impossible in a vacuum how you can get the following result (a flame - exhaust trail) in a vacuum chamber assuming that all air has been sucked out of this "vacuum" chamber? :

Combustion is not impossible in a vacuum.

I linked to an article here https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82434.msg2196043#msg2196043 which explains rocket fuel chemistry. You don't have to read it, but if you don't then don't make wild proclamations about what rocket fuels can or can't do.

I would go so far as to say that a vacuum is not possible when there is combustion.  Once a fuel and oxidizer are introduced to the flow restricted combustion chamber and ignited, it's no longer a vacuum in the chamber.

The combustion chamber pressure in the SpaceX Merlin 1D was 9.7 MPa (1,410 psi) and that's very far from being a vacuum!
But igniting a large rocket, even on the ground is not that easy, especially the RP-1 (kerosene) fuelled ones.

The the SpaceX Merlin 1D  was ignited, at sea-level and in a vacuum by injecting a TEA-TEB mixture with the oxygen before the RP-1 flow was started.
Quote from: Space Exploration Stack Exchange
Why is TEA-TEB chemical ignition used instead of spark ignition?Why is TEA-TEB chemical ignition used instead of spark ignition? (https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/15403/why-is-tea-teb-chemical-ignition-used-instead-of-spark-ignition)
Both the Saturn V and the Falcon 9 use TEA-TEB to ignite their kerosene-fueled engines. TEA-TEB is pyrophoric, igniting spontaneously on contact with air. This poses handling issues; it must be stored in nitrogen.

Oxygen-hydrogen fuelled rockets use electrical spark ignition.

1. I would go so far as to say that they can fly as long (as high) as an environment through which they fly is enough dense to support rocket-flying (combustion + resistance (pushing off)). So, if you define space as vacuum, then we can comfortably say (until Bom Tishop provides experimental evidence to the contrary) that rockets can't fly in a vacuum (of space), however, if you define space as let's say earth's envelop which is higher than 100 km and lower than 500 km, then we can presume that rockets maybe can fly even that high if there is enough air density at these altitudes. It is hardly to believe that at 37 000 km height (alleged orbit of geostationary satellites) there would still be enough air density to support rocket-flying.

2. Does anybody have a link to a rocket launch with rear facing cameras, where the rocket continues out into space eventually showing the whole globe (how long does it take for NASA to deliver geostationary satellite to it's orbit)????

3. How high must one get before the atmospheric rotation does not exist? For if all rotates it must have to stop somewhere.

3a. Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary and that an aether rotates 24h/day around motionless earth. However, aether's rotation is subtle, that is to say, we can detect it with interferometers (MMX, SAGNAC, MGP, ring-laser gyros, etc...), but aether's rotation doesn't produce an effect which could be detected with directional gyros (heading indicators). However, if earth rotated heading indicators would indicate (detect) that motion by constantly pointing towards let's say North Star (or The Sun) while our orientation points at the horizon turns around our spatially fixed heading indicator's needle. So, if earth really rotated then mechanical heading indicators would detect earth's motion while we firmly stand on the rigid rotating earth or/and fly within earth's rotating atmosphere (going straight up - strictly away from earth's center, or using different kind of gyro (artificial horizon) while flying along/above the equator), but that ability (of mechanical heading indicators) of detection of the motion of the earth (and earth's atmosphere) would come to a stop at certain altitude (somewhere beyond earth's atmosphere) because once we exit rotational environment of the highest earth's envelope, that is to say : once we reach stationary environment of a stationary space then our mechanical heading indicator will cease to drift (to indicate change in directional position) because now the needle of our mechanical heading indicator will be constantly aligned with one of it's dashes on the cursor. THE QUESTION IS : Where is (at what altitude) that boundary? Have you ever asked yourself that question???

3b. Even within geocentric scenario we would have the problem with that boundary, because unlike in HC scenario, within which going beyond that boundary means entering motionless space, within GC scenario, going beyond that boundary means entering MECHANICALLY (NOT AETHERLY) MOVING SPACE!!! However, if we assume that space (a region beyond the final frontier of earth's stationary (this time stationary because now we talk about GC scenario) envelops) is of an unknown nature (electrical nature for example), and that stars and planets are also of some totally different (from what official science teaches) nature, then in all possibility we will never discover true nature of space, stars and planets, because we will never be able to exit/escape earth's final boundary (biblical firmament) so to directly research it's true nature!!!

3c. Is the Founder of Modern Rocket Science trying to tell us something?

4. Hubble writes :

He writes:

Thus the use of dimming corrections leads to a particular kind of universe, but one which most students are likely to reject as highly improbable. Furthermore, the strange features of this universe are merely the dimming corrections expressed in different terms. Omit the dimming factors, and the oddities vanish. We are left with the simple, even familiar concept of a sensibly infinite universe. All the difficulties are transferred to the interpretation of redshifts which cannot then be the familiar velocity shifts....Meanwhile, on the basis of the evidence now available, apparent discrepancies between theory and observation must be recognized. A choice is presented, as once before in the days of Copernicus, between a strangely small, finite universe and a sensibly infinite universe plus a new principle of nature.[/color]

5. In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. We shall assign speeds to the Earth’s motions: its orbital speed around the Sun, Vo, and its speed of axial daily rotation Vd.  Now consider a point on the surface of the Earth at noon  time.  What is the speed of that point in space at noon?  It  is Vo+Vd. What about at midnight when the same point has moved around with  the spinning Earth? What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed is at noon time and the minimum speed is at midnight.  And every day every point on the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd to a minimum Vo-Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24 hours that means that every point on Earth is alternately accelerated and decelerated, accelerated and decelerated, and so on.  And Galileo’s conclusion is  that in the oceans and seas, subjected to this daily alternation of acceleration and deceleration, you would get the sloshing of the tides!

(https://i.postimg.cc/W4kjbV4w/GALILEO-FIGURE-1.jpg)

 If we put an accelerometer at the equator, why at night we do not see an acceleration and a deceleration by day if the earth really rotates?
The dark side of the earth away from the sun is moving faster of course (relative to the sun) as it is shooting forward.  And the sunny side is moving 'backward" or at least slower than the dark side.
So... 65,000 mph around the sun.
Dark side moving at 66,000mph.
Light side moving at 64,000mph.
So... In 12 hours from midnight to mid day, YOU should reduce in speed my 2000mph around the sun.  This means that every min in that 12 hours, you are slowing down 2.777777 mph.  Very small amount.  A human cannot feel this.  But an accelerometer TOTALLY can.  This mean I should be able to put my cellphone on a table and see the accelerometer showing a reading.

2. Does anybody have a link to a rocket launch with rear facing cameras, where the rocket continues out into space eventually showing the whole globe (how long does it take for NASA to deliver geostationary satellite to it's orbit)????
Probably not.  SpaceX does have cameras on their rockets that show the earth as the rocket heads towards its geostationary transfer orbit.  However the cameras get cutoff after the payload is deployed (usually within about an hour or so after liftoff).  From the time of liftoff to final geostationary orbit is probably on the order of a few days.

3. How high must one get before the atmospheric rotation does not exist? For if all rotates it must have to stop somewhere.
There is no cutoff for the atmosphere.  It just gradually keeps getting thinner and thinner until around 100km or so where there isn't enough air to generate any significant lift.  However, even the ISS at 400km or so still experiences a small bit of atmospheric drag.

3a. Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary and that an aether rotates 24h/day around motionless earth.
Does it really?  Are you saying that a stationary earth and a rotating universe makes more sense than a stationary universe and a rotating earth?

1. Don't need air for rockets to work, some actually work better in a vacuum, usually a longer nozzle. After a launch and out of sight, we can see them in orbit within 98 minutes.
2. It usually takes 2 weeks to get a payload into a GEO orbit.
I actually observed GOES 16 get to it's parking spot.
3. Sagnac test did not come to your FE conclusion, you cannot use their testing, without using their conclusions. Most avionic mechanical gyros have a weight that keeps the it level, to the current earth location, but slowly, so the aircraft's variable Gs, don't affect it.

Let's compare your stupidity level with Jack's level of stupidity :

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
Thrust is that magic word (force) you are looking for, isn't it?

Thrust is that magic word you are looking for, isn't it?
Thrust is the second body?
Sorry, that still doesn't answer my question.

You both (markjo and JackBlack) want us to believe that your level of stupidity is so high???
So, if you are not that stupid, why do you want us to believe that you are???
Is it because you can't handle the truth?
Is it because you can't handle any truth whatsoever?
Is it because you are so rotten people that you have to twist and turn upside-down every single truth, no matter how obvious it is???

So, let me ask you this question : Who are the rotten people in our societies and what are their acts???

  Of  course,  Tomb  and  Cheney’s  admission  also  means  the  US  has   no   hard   evidence   that   “nineteen   Muslims”   piloted   and   crashed  four  US  planes;  except,  perhaps  for  the  passport  of  Mohammed  Atta  that  just  happen  to  survive  the  crash  into  the  Twin  Towers  and  flutter  unmolested  onto  the  street  below.  But  in that case Mr. Bollyn would be glad to offer you his options in Florida  swamp  land.  Later  the  report  on  Atta’s  passport  was  revised  to  say  that  it  actually  belonged  to  another  hijacker  of  Flight  11,  Satan  al  Suqami.  Incidentally,  the  Atta  passport  was  first  presented  as  evidence  to  Mayor  Giuliani  by  his  police  commissioner, Bernard Kerik, who has a notorious past and who is  presently  in  jail  for  various  crimes.  Moreover,  when  Giuliani  was  presented  with  the  questions  at  a  press  conference  of  explosions  at  WTC,  he  turned  to  Kerik  who  simply  shook  his  head  and  said  “no.”  This  was  the  first  “official”  answer  to  the  question  that  would  never  go  away.  Additionally,  the  US  presented  videos  of  bin  Laden  supposedly  taking  responsibility  and/or   being   delighted   for   the   911   attacks.   It   was   later   discovered   that   the   videos,   which   were   obviously   fakes,   originated  from  ex-Israeli  Occupation  Forces  (IOF)  soldier  Rita  Katz through her SITE Institute.

Only Aired Once About PENTAGON :

This  video  was  only  aired  once  on  television  and  never  seen  again.  Whatever debris there was, the FBI and many unidentified people were out on  the  Pentagon  lawn  combing  the  ground  for  something,  walking  back  and forth. But this was a crime scene.

Have you ever heard about  the  four-part  FOX  news  story  by  Carl  Cameron,  accompanied  by  Brit  Hume  and  Tony Snow, on its details to know that Bollyn is following the leads where they go. The FBI and other US government agencies told Cameron that Israelis were  involved  in  911,  but  that  the  information  was  “classified.”  One  can  view  these  videos  at  several  places  on  the  Internet. The  intrigue  is  only  heightened by the fact that FOX pulled the series shortly after unidentified Zionist groups asked for its removal in 2001. Not only did FOX obey, as if following some Orwellian prophecy, it also removed the written transcripts and in its place put “This story no longer exists.” Here are some gripping excerpts from the series :

Federal  officials  this  year  have  arrested  or  detained  nearly   200   Israeli   citizens   suspected   of   belonging   to   an   “organized     intelligence-gathering     operation.”     The     Bush     administration  has  deported  most  of  those  arrested  after  Sept.  11...The  suspects:  Israeli  organized  crime  with  operations  in  New  York,  Miami,  Las  Vegas,  Canada,  Israel  and  Egypt...The  problem:  according  to  classified  law  enforcement  documents  obtained by Fox News, the bad guys had the cops’ beepers, cell phones, even home phones under surveillance. Some who did get caught  admitted  to  having  hundreds  of  numbers  and  using  them  to   avoid   arrest...Asked   this   week   about   another   sprawling   investigation  and  the  detention  of  60  Israelis  since  Sept.  11,  the  Bush     administration     treated     the     questions     like     hot     potatoes...Beyond  the  60  apprehended  or  detained,  and  many  deported since Sept. 11, another group of 140 Israeli individuals have been arrested and detained in this year in what government documents   describe   as   “an   organized   intelligence   gathering   operation,”  designed  to  “penetrate  government  facilities.”  Most  of   those   individuals   said   they   had   served   in   the   Israeli   military...But   they   also   had,   most   of   them,   intelligence   expertise,  and  either  worked  for  Amdocs  or  other  companies  in  Israel    that    specialize    in    wiretapping....Well,    there’s    real    pandemonium described at the FBI, the DEA and the INS. A lot of  these  problems  have  been  well  known  to  some  investigators,  many   of   who   have   contributed   to   the   reporting   on   this   story...They  want  to  find  out  how  it  is  all  this  has  come  out,  as  well as be very careful because of the explosive nature and very political  ramifications  of  the  story  itself  –  Tony.  SNOW:    All  right, Carl, thanks.

A third van was found on King St. between 6th and 7th which the Israelis  fled  after  they  blew  it  up.  It  was  later  found  that  the  moving  company, Urban Moving Systems (UMS), was a Mossad front and that the Kurzburg  brothers,  Paul  and  Sivan,  were  the  two  Mossad  agents.  The  entire police communication was recorded and is available on the Internet. One  of  the  police  officers  describes  one  of  the  vans  having  a  mural  of  a  plane  hitting  the  Twin  Towers.  Dominic  Suter,  another  Mossad  agent  and the registered owner of UMS, was allowed to flee to Israel by the FBI on Sept. 14, 2001, just three days after the attacks.

Dr.  Alan  Sabrosky,  Director  of  Strategic  Studies  at  the  US  Army  War  College says: “It is 100 percent certain that 9-11 was a Mossad operation. Period.”  General  Hamid  Gul,  former  Pakistan  intelligence  chief,  agrees:  “It was a Zionist/Neo Con conspiracy. It was an inside job. They wanted to go  on  world  conquest,  looking  at  it  as  an  opportunity  window  when  the  Muslim  world  was  lying  prostrate;  Russia  was  nowhere  in  sight;  China  was  still  not  an  economic  giant  that  it  has  turned  out  to  be.  And  they  thought  this  was  a  good  time  to  fill  those  strategic  areas  which  are  still  lying without any American presence; and of course to control the energy tap of the world. Presently it is the Middle East and in the future it is going to be central Asia.” Francesco Cossiga, former Italian president, is of the same opinion, telling Italy’s most respected newspaper that the attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad:  “all  the  [intelligence  services]  of  America  and  Europe  ...  now  know  well  that  the  disastrous  attack  has  been  planned  and  realized  from  the  CIA  American  and  the  Mossad  with  the  aid  of  the  Zionist  world  in  order to put under accusation the Arabic Countries and in order to induce the  western  powers  to  take  part  ...  in  Iraq  [and]  Afghanistan.”

As  for  the  odd  Israeli  reaction  to  9/11,  Benjamin  Netanyahu  himself  admitted in an off guard moment: “We are benefiting from one thing, and that  is  the  attack  on  the  Twin  Towers  and  Pentagon,  and  the  American  struggle  in  Iraq...these  events  swung  American  public  opinion  in  our  favor.” The day after, Netanyahu uttered an even more audacious remark on the 9/11 attacks, saying: “It’s very good.” Realizing the implications, he caught   himself   and   said,   “Well,   it’s   not   good,   but   it   will   generate   immediate sympathy.” Similar to Netanyahu’s capitalizing on 9/11, Ehud Barak,   which   Bollyn   says   “is   suspected   of   being   one   of   the   real   masterminds  of  9/11,”  did  much  the  same  since  “within  minutes  of  the  explosive  demolitions  of  the  Twin  Towers  on  9/11,  the  Israeli  politician  and  military  leader  Ehud  Barak  was  in  the  London  studio  of  the  BBC”  and  “before  any  evidence  of  culpability  was  found,  Barak  called  for  a  ‘War on Terror’ and US military intervention in Afghanistan,” which is a “textbook  example  of  how  false-flag  terrorism  is  supposed  to  work.  The  perpetrator  is  the  first  one  to  assign  blame...which  is  the  real  purpose  of  such atrocities.”

Since combustion is impossible in a vacuum how you can get the following result (a flame - exhaust trail) in a vacuum chamber assuming that all air has been sucked out of this "vacuum" chamber? :

Combustion is not impossible in a vacuum.
I would go so far as to say that a vacuum is not possible when there is combustion.  Once a fuel and oxidizer are introduced to the flow restricted combustion chamber and ignited, it's no longer a vacuum in the chamber.

1. I would go so far as to say that they can fly as long (as high) as an environment through which they fly is enough dense to support rocket-flying (combustion + resistance (pushing off)).
If the combustion is pushing off the atmosphere, then what's pushing the rocket?

"No experiment has ever been performed with such excruciating persistence and meticulous precision, and in every conceivable manner, than that of trying to detect and measure the motion of the Earth. Yet they have all consistently and continually yielded a velocity for the Earth of exactly ZERO mph."

Then why can I turn on a switch on my star app, so if attached to a telescope, it can point 20 arc seconds better? From the sky shifting sideways from the 66,000 mph around the sun.

The Gyroscope shown in your video, will not show the 15 degrees per hr.
Because it has pedulus vanes, which keep it level to the local earth, but are damped a lot, so the planes motions do not affect it.
Also mechanical gyroscopes are not accurate, so they can drift more than the earth's rotation. That is why they have those vanes.

If you just have plane gyroscope on a bench, may not show the rotation too.
But I suspect it's from internal friction of the gimbals.
If you dither the assembly then it may show the motion.
Dithering (rotating back and forth) is a way to get more sensitivity on things with friction.
I had told them this, but again they won't try anything that disproves them.

1. I would go so far as to say that they can fly as long (as high) as an environment through which they fly is enough dense to support rocket-flying (combustion + resistance (pushing off)).
They only need the pressure to support gaseous combustion in the main chamber, where the combustion is occurring.
And as your repeated avoidance of a very simple question shows, the only resistance they need is that of the exhaust gasses. They don't need any extra air to push off.

So we can safely conclude that rockets can and do work in a vacuum.

If you wish to object you need justify your baseless claims that all the gas/liquid would instantly get sucked out to prevent combustion, and explain what magical force accelerates the gas without involving any interaction with another body.
Until you do, there is literally no reason to think that rockets can't work in a vacuum.

Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary
Stop lying. The Sagnac effect proves Earth rotates and you know that.

And of course that is completely unrelated to the topic and now you are just running down your typical rabbit hole of spam and insults.

How about you stick to the topic, and actually the issues that have been raised rather than repeating the same baseless lies?

You can start with this simple question you have been avoiding ever since it was brought up as you know it destroys your position:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Since combustion is impossible in a vacuum how you can get the following result (a flame - exhaust trail) in a vacuum chamber assuming that all air has been sucked out of this "vacuum" chamber? :

Combustion is not impossible in a vacuum.
I would go so far as to say that a vacuum is not possible when there is combustion.  Once a fuel and oxidizer are introduced to the flow restricted combustion chamber and ignited, it's no longer a vacuum in the chamber.

1. I would go so far as to say that they can fly as long (as high) as an environment through which they fly is enough dense to support rocket-flying (combustion + resistance (pushing off)).
Since the exhaust velocity is faster than the speed of sound it is quite impossible for a rocket, far from any solid object to push off the atmosphere.
In addition, the atmosphere is an impediment to the rocket's motion because of aerodynamic drag and the pressure term in the thrust equation:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1)
Note also that in my previous post I wrote: "The combustion chamber pressure in the SpaceX Merlin 1D was 9.7 MPa (1,410 psi) and that's very far from being a vacuum!"

Quote from: cikljamas
So, if you define space as vacuum,
Sure, it's closer to a vacuum than can be achieved on earth.

Quote from: cikljamas
then we can comfortably say (until Bom Tishop provides experimental evidence to the contrary) that rockets can't fly in a vacuum (of space),
No, we can assume no such thing because an optimally designed rocket engine has considerably more thrust than one designed for sea-level.

Quote from: cikljamas
however, if you define space as let's say earth's envelop which is higher than 100 km and lower than 500 km, then we can presume that rockets maybe can fly even that high if there is enough air density at these altitudes. It is hardly to believe that at 37 000 km height (alleged orbit of geostationary satellites) there would still be enough air density to support rocket-flying.
There is insufficient air above 100 km to significantly affect a rocket's performance, though enough to prevent satellites orbiting as low as that.

Quote from: cikljamas
2. Does anybody have a link to a rocket launch with rear facing cameras, where the rocket continues out into space eventually showing the whole globe (how long does it take for NASA to deliver geostationary satellite to it's orbit)????
I don't know, you can search for that yourself as well as anyone but I've seen none all the way to geostationary orbit.

3. How high must one get before the atmospheric rotation does not exist? For if all rotates it must have to stop somewhere.
This might tell you: The Rotational Speed of the Upper Atmosphere by King-Hele, D. G. & Allan, R. R. (http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1966SSRv....6..248K).
Once the mean free path of the molecules exceeds a few kilometres they close to being "disconnected from the earth" apart from gravitational effects.

This starts at a few hundred kilometres altitude, see: Standard and Reference Atmospheres, Chapter 14 by K.S.W. Champion, A.E. Cole, and A.J. Kantor (http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.455.9475&rep=rep1&type=pdf).

Quote from: cikljamas
3a. Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary and that an aether rotates 24h/day around motionless earth. However, aether's rotation is subtle, that is to say, we can detect it with interferometers (MMX, SAGNAC, MGP, ring-laser gyros, etc...),
The "Sagnac effect proves" no such thing. Please show evidence for this claim.

Quote from: cikljamas
but aether's rotation doesn't produce an effect which could be detected with directional gyros (heading indicators).
The earth's rotation can and is detected by sufficiently stable gyroscopes and similar instruments (eg the Foucault pendulum).
Earlier aircraft directional gyros, however, are not sufficiently free of drift to measure the earth's rotation and must be reset regularly to the magnetic compass.

Quote from: cikljamas
However, if earth rotated heading indicators would indicate (detect) that motion by constantly pointing towards let's say North Star (or The Sun) while our orientation points at the horizon turns around our spatially fixed heading indicator's needle.
I'll ignore that because earlier directional gyros were not sufficiently drift free to do this and modern ones can detect both the earth's rotation and the plane's movement over the earth's surface and most be reset from the magnetic compass.

Quote from: cikljamas
3b. Even within geocentric scenario we would have the problem with that boundary, because unlike in HC scenario, within which going beyond that boundary means entering motionless space, within GC scenario, going beyond that boundary means entering MECHANICALLY (NOT AETHERLY) MOVING SPACE!!!
Who claims that space is motionless? Linear motion is purely relative so what is the frame of reference that makes space "stationary"?

5. In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. We shall assign speeds to the Earth’s motions: its orbital speed around the Sun, Vo, and its speed of axial daily rotation Vd.  Now consider a point on the surface of the Earth at noon  time.  What is the speed of that point in space at noon?  It  is Vo+Vd. What about at midnight when the same point has moved around with  the spinning Earth? What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed is at noon time and the minimum speed is at midnight.  And every day every point on the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd to a minimum Vo-Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24 hours that means that every point on Earth is alternately accelerated and decelerated, accelerated and decelerated, and so on.

Dark side moving at 66,000mph. Light side moving at 64,000mph.
So... In 12 hours from midnight to mid day, YOU should reduce in speed my 2000mph around the sun.  This means that every min in that 12 hours, you are slowing down 2.777777 mph.  Very small amount.  A human cannot feel this.  But an accelerometer TOTALLY can.  This mean I should be able to put my cellphone on a table and see the accelerometer showing a reading.[/color]

Let's use some sensible SI units!
At midnight the surface velocity at the equator is about 460 m/s in the same direction as the orbital velocity and
at midday the surface velocity at the equator is about 460 m/s in the opposite direction to the orbital velocity.

The average acceleration is 2 x 460/(12 x 3600) = 0.02 m/s2.
This acceleration is simply the effect of the centripetal acceleration at the equator, which is 0.033 m/s2 always direct down relative to YOU!

So this acceleration is simply part of the effective g at the equator and the is nothing for your cellphone to measure.

You can start with this simple question you have been avoiding ever since it was brought up as you know it destroys your position:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and
what is the other body involved in this interaction?
You dare to ask this idiotic question again, even though you have read what i posted on this very page (reply #696)
Here we go : reply #696 once again, just for you : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82434.msg2197581#msg2197581

If you had any scruples you'd admit that HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!!

So either answer JackBlack's question or admit that you have no answer.

Surely by now you must admit that you have no basis for claiming that "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum"!

No, we don't trust in you.
We trust in reality, what can be shown to be true with evidence and rational arguments; rather than baselessly and repeatedly asserted lies by people that need to run away from very simple questions.

If you want anyone to take you seriously, you need to answer my very simple question.

You dare to ask this idiotic question again, even though you have read what i posted on this very page
No, I dare ask this very serious question you refuse to answer.
Yes, I have read what you have posted, and you read what I did. You even quoted it:
Thrust is that magic word you are looking for, isn't it?
Thrust is the second body?
Sorry, that still doesn't answer my question.
Does this answer you question???
Now, considering I clearly stated that it does not answer my question and explained that it didn't because you failed to identify the second body involved which would also be force, it is quite clear that it doesn't answer my question.
So why be so dishonest to pretend that you have answered my question and ask such a stupid question which was answered directly by the very words you quoted?

So I'll ask again, this time adding some more emphasis:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

And the post goes like this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/cJLdxTNF/ROCKETS-NASA-S-SILLIEST-LIE.jpg)

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense. If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one. Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks. If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.

This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do.

Why do you think it's not the case? Which part do you think is impossible?

Seriously? lol

Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum. Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram. I think our poor friend Isaac is rolling and howling in his grave - seeing how NASA is abusing / distorting his laws in order to fool the world. Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.

One interesting question for Rabinoz who "knows" how to think for himself (out of the box) :

If exhaust velocity of let's say Ariane 5 rocket is 2,7 km/s, then why don't we see 2,7 km long exhaust trail behind Ariana 5 rocket right after lift off??? 

Exhaust trail behind Ariana 5 rocket :
(https://i.postimg.cc/sxHVWD8h/ARIANA-5-LIFT-OFF.jpg)


Why? Why have you arbitrarily choosen "2.7km" as the length of the exhaust trail you want to see? Just because that's the number you saw for the exhaust velocity and it's now stuck in your head? Maybe the trail of hot but not flaming gases is a couple of km long, you just can't see it.

(https://i.postimg.cc/15WDty7p/ARIANA-5-LIFT-OFF-1.jpg)

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

Was this helpful in a sense that now you are ready to admit that there is no error in the following explanation :


Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

SIMPLE QUESTION FOR JackBlack and Rabinoz : If exhaust velocity of let's say Ariane 5 rocket is 2,7 km/s, then why don't we see 2,7 km long exhaust trail behind Ariana 5 rocket right after lift off???

No one, other than YOU, is saying that "rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance" so stop you usual straw-manning tactics!

The "rocket's exhaust plume does . . . encounter . . . air resistance".
That "air resistance" cannot, however, transmit any thrust to the rocket because that exhaust plume is moving away from the rocket at a hypersonic velocity and that has been explained many times but YOU refuse to listen!

Quote from: cikljamas
Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks.
Most of the thrust does come from the momentum of the huge mass of exhaust gas expelled at an extremely high velocity.
If you cannot understand such a simple concept as Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, which is force = time rate of change of momentum that's YOUR problem, not ours or NASA's!

Some thrust also comes from the pressure difference term, exhaust area x (exhaust pressure - outside pressure), and this increases as the external pressure falls.
This is why the thrust of a given rocket engine is higher in the vacuum of space than at sea level.

There's no "exchange of energy" but there is an extremely massive second body and that is the tonnes of burnt fuel expels at extremely high velocity!
For example the Saturn V burnt 12.89 tonnes of fuel and oxidizer per second. There's you second object!

How could there be a 2.7 km exhaust trail right after lift off? The rocket is travelling very slowly for a while after lift-off, though the Ariane 5 does accelerate comparatively fast from the outset.

Why is there a connection between length of exhaust trail in kilometres and the exhaust velocity in km/s of an Ariane 5 rocket?

It all depends on how fast the exhaust gases remain visible.

Since combustion is impossible in a vacuum how you can get the following result (a flame - exhaust trail) in a vacuum chamber assuming that all air has been sucked out of this "vacuum" chamber? :

Combustion is not impossible in a vacuum.
I would go so far as to say that a vacuum is not possible when there is combustion.  Once a fuel and oxidizer are introduced to the flow restricted combustion chamber and ignited, it's no longer a vacuum in the chamber.

1. I would go so far as to say that they can fly as long (as high) as an environment through which they fly is enough dense to support rocket-flying (combustion + resistance (pushing off)).
If the combustion is pushing off the atmosphere, then what's pushing the rocket?

In this stupidity contest between Jack and you it's really hard to decide who wins, as far as i am concerned, you both deserve gold medal...

Let's compare your stupidity level with Jack's level of stupidity :

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
Thrust is that magic word (force) you are looking for, isn't it?

Thrust is that magic word you are looking for, isn't it?
Thrust is the second body?
Sorry, that still doesn't answer my question.

You both (markjo and JackBlack) want us to believe that your level of stupidity is so high???
So, if you are not that stupid, why do you want us to believe that you are???
Is it because you can't handle the truth?
Is it because you can't handle any truth whatsoever?
Is it because you are so rotten people that you have to twist and turn upside-down every single truth, no matter how obvious it is???

So, let me ask you this question : Who are the rotten people in our societies and what are their acts???

  Of  course,  Tomb  and  Cheney’s  admission  also  means  the  US  has   no   hard   evidence   that   “nineteen   Muslims”   piloted   and   crashed  four  US  planes;  except,  perhaps  for  the  passport  of  Mohammed  Atta  that  just  happen  to  survive  the  crash  into  the  Twin  Towers  and  flutter  unmolested  onto  the  street  below.  But  in that case Mr. Bollyn would be glad to offer you his options in Florida  swamp  land.  Later  the  report  on  Atta’s  passport  was  revised  to  say  that  it  actually  belonged  to  another  hijacker  of  Flight  11,  Satan  al  Suqami.  Incidentally,  the  Atta  passport  was  first  presented  as  evidence  to  Mayor  Giuliani  by  his  police  commissioner, Bernard Kerik, who has a notorious past and who is  presently  in  jail  for  various  crimes.  Moreover,  when  Giuliani  was  presented  with  the  questions  at  a  press  conference  of  explosions  at  WTC,  he  turned  to  Kerik  who  simply  shook  his  head  and  said  “no.”  This  was  the  first  “official”  answer  to  the  question  that  would  never  go  away.  Additionally,  the  US  presented  videos  of  bin  Laden  supposedly  taking  responsibility  and/or   being   delighted   for   the   911   attacks.   It   was   later   discovered   that   the   videos,   which   were   obviously   fakes,   originated  from  ex-Israeli  Occupation  Forces  (IOF)  soldier  Rita  Katz through her SITE Institute.

Only Aired Once About PENTAGON :

This  video  was  only  aired  once  on  television  and  never  seen  again.  Whatever debris there was, the FBI and many unidentified people were out on  the  Pentagon  lawn  combing  the  ground  for  something,  walking  back  and forth. But this was a crime scene.

Have you ever heard about  the  four-part  FOX  news  story  by  Carl  Cameron,  accompanied  by  Brit  Hume  and  Tony Snow, on its details to know that Bollyn is following the leads where they go. The FBI and other US government agencies told Cameron that Israelis were  involved  in  911,  but  that  the  information  was  “classified.”  One  can  view  these  videos  at  several  places  on  the  Internet. The  intrigue  is  only  heightened by the fact that FOX pulled the series shortly after unidentified Zionist groups asked for its removal in 2001. Not only did FOX obey, as if following some Orwellian prophecy, it also removed the written transcripts and in its place put “This story no longer exists.” Here are some gripping excerpts from the series :

Federal  officials  this  year  have  arrested  or  detained  nearly   200   Israeli   citizens   suspected   of   belonging   to   an   “organized     intelligence-gathering     operation.”     The     Bush     administration  has  deported  most  of  those  arrested  after  Sept.  11...The  suspects:  Israeli  organized  crime  with  operations  in  New  York,  Miami,  Las  Vegas,  Canada,  Israel  and  Egypt...The  problem:  according  to  classified  law  enforcement  documents  obtained by Fox News, the bad guys had the cops’ beepers, cell phones, even home phones under surveillance. Some who did get caught  admitted  to  having  hundreds  of  numbers  and  using  them  to   avoid   arrest...Asked   this   week   about   another   sprawling   investigation  and  the  detention  of  60  Israelis  since  Sept.  11,  the  Bush     administration     treated     the     questions     like     hot     potatoes...Beyond  the  60  apprehended  or  detained,  and  many  deported since Sept. 11, another group of 140 Israeli individuals have been arrested and detained in this year in what government documents   describe   as   “an   organized   intelligence   gathering   operation,”  designed  to  “penetrate  government  facilities.”  Most  of   those   individuals   said   they   had   served   in   the   Israeli   military...But   they   also   had,   most   of   them,   intelligence   expertise,  and  either  worked  for  Amdocs  or  other  companies  in  Israel    that    specialize    in    wiretapping....Well,    there’s    real    pandemonium described at the FBI, the DEA and the INS. A lot of  these  problems  have  been  well  known  to  some  investigators,  many   of   who   have   contributed   to   the   reporting   on   this   story...They  want  to  find  out  how  it  is  all  this  has  come  out,  as  well as be very careful because of the explosive nature and very political  ramifications  of  the  story  itself  –  Tony.  SNOW:    All  right, Carl, thanks.

A third van was found on King St. between 6th and 7th which the Israelis  fled  after  they  blew  it  up.  It  was  later  found  that  the  moving  company, Urban Moving Systems (UMS), was a Mossad front and that the Kurzburg  brothers,  Paul  and  Sivan,  were  the  two  Mossad  agents.  The  entire police communication was recorded and is available on the Internet. One  of  the  police  officers  describes  one  of  the  vans  having  a  mural  of  a  plane  hitting  the  Twin  Towers.  Dominic  Suter,  another  Mossad  agent  and the registered owner of UMS, was allowed to flee to Israel by the FBI on Sept. 14, 2001, just three days after the attacks.

Dr.  Alan  Sabrosky,  Director  of  Strategic  Studies  at  the  US  Army  War  College says: “It is 100 percent certain that 9-11 was a Mossad operation. Period.”  General  Hamid  Gul,  former  Pakistan  intelligence  chief,  agrees:  “It was a Zionist/Neo Con conspiracy. It was an inside job. They wanted to go  on  world  conquest,  looking  at  it  as  an  opportunity  window  when  the  Muslim  world  was  lying  prostrate;  Russia  was  nowhere  in  sight;  China  was  still  not  an  economic  giant  that  it  has  turned  out  to  be.  And  they  thought  this  was  a  good  time  to  fill  those  strategic  areas  which  are  still  lying without any American presence; and of course to control the energy tap of the world. Presently it is the Middle East and in the future it is going to be central Asia.” Francesco Cossiga, former Italian president, is of the same opinion, telling Italy’s most respected newspaper that the attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad:  “all  the  [intelligence  services]  of  America  and  Europe  ...  now  know  well  that  the  disastrous  attack  has  been  planned  and  realized  from  the  CIA  American  and  the  Mossad  with  the  aid  of  the  Zionist  world  in  order to put under accusation the Arabic Countries and in order to induce the  western  powers  to  take  part  ...  in  Iraq  [and]  Afghanistan.”

As  for  the  odd  Israeli  reaction  to  9/11,  Benjamin  Netanyahu  himself  admitted in an off guard moment: “We are benefiting from one thing, and that  is  the  attack  on  the  Twin  Towers  and  Pentagon,  and  the  American  struggle  in  Iraq...these  events  swung  American  public  opinion  in  our  favor.” The day after, Netanyahu uttered an even more audacious remark on the 9/11 attacks, saying: “It’s very good.” Realizing the implications, he caught   himself   and   said,   “Well,   it’s   not   good,   but   it   will   generate   immediate sympathy.” Similar to Netanyahu’s capitalizing on 9/11, Ehud Barak,   which   Bollyn   says   “is   suspected   of   being   one   of   the   real   masterminds  of  9/11,”  did  much  the  same  since  “within  minutes  of  the  explosive  demolitions  of  the  Twin  Towers  on  9/11,  the  Israeli  politician  and  military  leader  Ehud  Barak  was  in  the  London  studio  of  the  BBC”  and  “before  any  evidence  of  culpability  was  found,  Barak  called  for  a  ‘War on Terror’ and US military intervention in Afghanistan,” which is a “textbook  example  of  how  false-flag  terrorism  is  supposed  to  work.  The  perpetrator  is  the  first  one  to  assign  blame...which  is  the  real  purpose  of  such atrocities.”

You're demonstrating your conspiracy theorist mind again by the repeat cut and pasting of the same CTer theories with you thinking this somehow is going to make it fact or in some way be persuasive. I guess you won't be surprised to know that to most with a rational non CT mindset think this is all drivel which has been debunked.

An example being the Pentagon no plane theory you linked to. This has been done to death so often by debunkers. But in typical CTer fashion, quotes and statements are cherry picked as some form of slam dunk evidence. The reporter in the news clip couldn't see a plane because most of the wreckage was in the building itself.

Fill your boots with these debunks, of course you either won't read them or if you do/have sone previously, won't believe them:

If you do actually believe rockets can't work in space, it's obvious why this is the case.

Maybe you need to reflect on your belief system.

Why have many of us lost faith in science? Very simple, deception. NASA used to be wonderful at doing many scientific portrayals of space. Everything looked so real and most of us were really caught up with it from the 1960s on. But when NASA failed miserably in the 1990s on with fake imagery, the fake ISS, and all those unprofessional actors acting as astronauts (astro-nuts), many of us woke up to reality. And, when an intelligent person has seen and witnessed the fakery of a science field for a few times, that is when 100% of that particular field of science comes into question. How would you feel about someone (example - a Mexican), that has deceived you, say for over 20 years, and you discover the truth about that person. You become very upset inside, and some will even go to the point of never trusting another Mexican person ever again. The same has come to past with space and aeronautical science. Once you have discovered the deception you begin to and lose complete faith in the whole works of its program, and you begin to question everything. As for rockets functioning propulsion in the vacuum of space, for me that is like pulling a boat out of the water, firing up the engine, engaging the prop, rev up the engine, and let's go to town boys

There you go again, true to form.

The well worn tropes of 'fake', 'deception', 'question everything', and the drift into using YouTube gurus and experts who think they know what they're talking about to bolster your claim.

I've seen the video you've posted before. The guy is an idiot.

As I said, you need to question your own outlook and why you believe these conspiracies instead of the generally held scientific consensus and evidence.

But you won't. I would guess that, even if space flight became as cheap as getting on a plane you would question the first hand witness accounts of those who been on one, or if you took one yourself you'd be thinking you've actually somehow been put on a simulator by TPTB just to fool you.

I am transferring the following passage from one other discussion on the same subject :

Real life analogies work great to explain scientific phenomena. In fact, I prefer them because we may not all agree on the definition of terms that Nasa and other space scientists use.

You used this analogy:

“Place a firecracker under an empty inverted can and light it. When it explodes the can flies upward because the forces from the expanding gas of the explosion are not countered in the upward direction so that is the direction it moves. And, it doesn’t move merely because the gasses “push against the ground” under the can. It would work as well if the can were suspended by a string and away from the ground.”

Your assumption that a can suspended upside down by a string would also fly up in the air.

I have tried this experiment and the can DOES NOT fly up in the air. The can moves slightly upward, but does not “fly up”.

We taped a Black Cat firecracker to the inside of a green bean can with no lid, set it on the ground upside down with the wick sticking outside the can. With the same set up, we place another green bean can on the barbecue grill.

For the can on the ground, when the firecracker blew, the can soared into the air about 20 feet. For the can on the grill, when the firecracker blew, the can only jumped up about 4 inches.

Ya, we blow a lot of stuff up when its firecracker season using all manner of objects and environments. I have had a pretty active childhood and have experimented quite a bit with scientific principles.

When it is said that a can on the ground behaves the same way as a can suspended in air when firecrackers are exploding inside them I have to disagree based on my own experience.

Clearly, the ground is aiding the can somehow in gaining all that extra height. It could also be said that the grill and its lack of ground is prohibiting the can from flying up.

Without using the idea of “pushing against the ground”, how would you explain the difference in heights of the two green bean cans?

I answered your question many times, but since you are full of shit, you will continue to pretend that i didn't!
Stop lying.
You are yet to answer this.
This is almost certainly because you know answering it will show you have been lying the entire time and know that rockets do work in a vacuum and that they don't need to push off anything other than their own exhaust.

Spamming the same refuted nonsense again and again will not help you.
It will not magically answer the question.

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!
And again, you fail to answer the question as you have failed to identify the second body involved in this interaction.
If the expansion produces thrust force, why isn't this force accelerating the rocket?

Free expansion!
Does not apply in this case.
With free expansion, there is no net change in the velocity of the gas.
With a rocket there is.
Also note that free expansion does not care what the actual pressures are, just that there is a difference.
If free expansion would magically prevent rockets from working in a vacuum it would also prevent them working in the atmosphere.

On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!
If that was the case, that would mean that the gas CANNOT accelerate.
That the gas MUST REMAIN INSIDE THE ROCKET!
By claiming there is no second body you are claiming that gas will magically be held inside the rocket rather than escaping out the opening to a vacuum.

Is that really the path of stupidity you want to go down?

Again, we know the gas will leave the rocket. To claim otherwise is claiming pure magic, that you can hold gas inside an open container surrounded by vacuum.
We also know that as there is only one opening in one direction, it will leave in a particular direction.
We know that that means it will have a velocity relative to the rocket.
We know that it started without a net velocity relative to the rocket.
We know that that means it needs to be accelerated.
We know that it has mass.
We know that that means it needed a force applied to accelerate it.
We know that that involves interaction with a second body.
We know that that will also accelerate the second body.

Claiming there is no second body means there cannot be any iteraction and thus no force and thus no acceleration and thus the gas remained trapped inside the rocket.

If that is what you want to claim, then state it directly. Go against all known physics and claim that in a vacuum, because there is no second body, gas will remain inside an open vessel with absolutely nothing to keep it in.

If you don't want to claim that and instead want to accept that the gas will escape, you need to identify the second body. Claiming there is none will not help.

As a reminder, the only thing there to act as the second body is the rocket.
That makes it clear why you are avoiding answering it. Because you know that answering it will show that you know rockets will work in a vacuum.

Was this helpful
No, you ignoring reality and repeating the same refuted nonsense without dealing with the refutation is not helpful in any sense.

So going to answer the question yet, by either identifying the second body or by claiming the gas will magically stay trapped inside an open container?

If the gases are pushed in to the container faster than they can exit, the pressure builds up and can combust.

Also think inside the rocket engine. The fuel and oxidizer burns rapidly and expands, pushing against all the walls of the chamber, except where the hole is at the bottom, to the nozzle. So the gasses push in all directions but less down, so the results it pushes the rocket up. So it pushes against itself, simple.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

BULLSHIT :

An airplane propeller DOES push against the air and in so doing it DOES impart a reactive force to the plane because the prop is a solid object CONNECTED to the plane.

Rocket exhaust isn’t connected to the rocket so it can’t function as a pushing medium to the rocket as a propeller does.

Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle. There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.

That is how rocket thrust works. The continued expansion of gasses caused by burning high energy fuel builds up pressure but the pressure is always lower at the rear of the rocket motor due to the open nozzle. The higher pressure in the forward part of the motor maintains an imbalance of forces so the rocket continues to move as long as fuel is burned.

In addition to the above force there is also some thrust caused by rearward ejection of mass (the exhaust) in accordance with Newton’s 3rd Law.

COMMON SENSE :

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.

To save time, I will tell you how I interpret Newtons 3 Laws of Motion. If you disagree then there is no longer a reason to continue this thread as we differ on basic laws of physics which won’t be resolved here. If you agree with me, then there is much to discuss.

Let’s start with Newtons 3 Laws of Motion.

Fist Law: For an object to remain as it is, either moving or not, the sum of the forces on it are zero.
Sigma F = 0

Second Law: For a body to accelerate, there must be a force on it.
F = ma

Third Law: For every force in one direction, there is an equal force in the opposite direction.
F1 = – F2 or F1 + F2 = 0

Notice how all of Newtons Laws of Motion contain the term ‘force’. Newton used the term ‘force’ to explain how objects are pushed and pulled in our universe.

This is how I see Newtons 3rd Law applied to rockets flying through our atmosphere:

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

The way you are explaining it, is that molecules hitting inside a chamber are moving the rocket forward, AND the rocket is moving forward. You did mention the perhaps the exhaust might move it forward also somewhat, but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.

You can’t have two positive forces. F1 + F2 would then be greater than zero, and that defies Newtons 3rd Law. My point is the exhaust out the back is not the minor part, it is the major part of the force. Newtons 3rd law says it has to be.

Incorrect!
In the rocket engine, including in the nozzle bell, the rocket exhaust is connected to the rocket in the combustion chamber and the nozzle.
The acceleration of the propellant is caused by its combustion and the shape of the converging-diverging (de Laval) nozzle.

Quote from: cikljamas
Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle.
You can look on the thrust of a rocket being generated this way using Newton's second law of motion and the answer is the same as using conservation of momentum.

Relative to the rocket the mass of the propellant is accelerated from zero in the tanks to the exhaust velocity within the combustion chamber and nozzle.

Quote from: cikljamas
There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.
This is not a secondary force but is simply another way of looking at the same force.

Quote from: cikljamas
<< simply a repetition of the above! >>

COMMON SENSE:

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.
Well why argue semantics instead of physics?
Is it because you do not understand physics or do you see the need to reinterpret Newton's Laws to fit your narrative?

The propellant must be accelerated from zero velocity (relative to the rocket) to the exhaust velocity within the rocket engine (combustion chamber and nozzle).

This acceleration requires a rearward force to be applied to that propellant and that rearward force is applied by the forces on the throat and expanding nozzle as in the diagram on the right.
If this rearward force is your F1 then that burnt propellant must apply an equal and opposite force, F2.

So F2 is the negative force.

I simply cannot understand why there is any problem with this approach.

The tonnes of exhaust gas ejected every second at Ve must require a force to accelerate it.

That force is the (predominant part of) the rocket's thrust.


Note that the atmospheric pressure does not enter into that part of the thrust (a force)

The answer has not changed!
NASA and anybody that understands rocket thrust say that:
the efficiency falls of when the outside pressure falls below the exhaust pressure but for a given rocket engine the thrust keeps increasing!

Now read this over and over until you understand it!
Quote from: cikljamas
Remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.
Please note exactly what NASA said:
Quote
and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air
The rocket engine starts "losing efficiency" NOT losing thrust. In other words, a little more thrust could be obtained by using a larger nozzle.
But please note that NASA does not say rocket engines lose power or lose thrust "as they ascend into ever thinner air".

And then read exactly what I wrote:
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
There is no "BIG question"! A rocket loses no thrust as it enters into a near-vacuum and in fact gradually gains thrust all the way!

Look again at "Goddard's" rocket thrust equation: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/e63c0hkzoyx1604/Goddard%20Rocket%20Equation%20-%20alone.png?dl=1)
The lower the outside pressure, Po, the higher the thrust, F.
I was comparing the rocket's thrust not the "efficiency" and as I've said before a little more thrust (and hence efficiency) could in principle be achieved by using a larger nozzle.
It is soon found that there is a practical limit on the nozzle size and this is commonly the diameter of the rocket body.

Look at this:
Quote from: StackExchange: Space Exploration Beta
What are the differences between a standard Merlin engine and the Merlin Vacuum engine? (https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/8806/what-are-the-differences-between-a-standard-merlin-engine-and-the-merlin-vacuum)
This pic is said to be, left to right: Falcon 1 Merlin 1C, Falcon 9 1C (different mounting), and Falcon 9 2nd stage 1C vacuum -- without the extension nozzle, so it's a shorter, fatter nozzle than the others.
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/0A9SH.jpg)

And here's what the extension nozzle looks like by itself:
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/YC9rw.jpg)
That's what a nozzle for a vacuum engine looks like. I tried to scale the two photos correctly.

The limit on that nozzle, in this case, is the diameter of stage 2 of the Falcon 9.

Do you understand these issues yet?
The above photos are of the SpaceX Merlin 1C engines.

The "sea-level" version of the SpaceX Merlin 1D delivers a thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.
While the "vacuum" version of the Merlin 1D (using a larger bell) delivers a thrust of 934 kN (210,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

If you do not have the capability of comprehending this you have no right to call NASA or anybody else liars because YOU disagree with them!

YOU are the ignorant one here!

So, in the air there is force between the air and the exhaust.
Why is not the rocket included?
How can rocket acceerate in the air if no force acts on it?
As Milan Tarot would say : "Javio se još jedan iz linije za pametne!"
Translation (for those who don't speak croatian) : One another "clever" guy spoke up so to join this stupidity contest.
Macarios, you landed your jump near the far end of the stupidity scale, so that you reminded me to Bob Bemon whose world record stood for almost 23 years until it was broken in 1991 by Mike Powell.
(https://i.postimg.cc/yNYdLwkc/STUPIDITY-SCALE.jpg)

So, is there any force between the rocket and the exhaust?

Will you answer, or hide behind things like that?

If the gases are pushed in to the container faster than they can exit, the pressure builds up and can combust.

Also think inside the rocket engine. The fuel and oxidizer burns rapidly and expands, pushing against all the walls of the chamber, except where the hole is at the bottom, to the nozzle. So the gasses push in all directions but less down, so the results it pushes the rocket up. So it pushes against itself, simple.
And I mostly agree.
The one point of contention is that even if it was released much slower it would still generate a force, but much less.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE
BULLSHIT :
There is no second body in space so the air will magically stay inside the rocket, or magically accelerate without any force, either way in direct violation of all known physics.
COMMON SENSE :
There is an interaction between the gas and the rocket causing each to push each other away.

To save time
If you really wanted to save time you would have answered my question by now.
Especially as I have already summed up the 3 laws.
As a reminder:
The velocity of the fuel and oxidiser in the rocket changes as it burns in the combustion chamber and exits the rocket.
By Newtons 1st and 2nd laws, this requires a force to act on the gas to accelerate it.
By Newtons 3rd law, this requires a reactionary force acting on another body in an opposite direction.
In space, the only other body available is the rocket.

Thus by Newton's laws of motion rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph
So you don't see it at all.
Forces have units of Newtons, not velocity. Try again.

but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.
The force of the gas on the rocket is the same magnitude as the force of the rocket on the gas.
They are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
This gas doesn't just magically flow out the back. It needs a force to force it out. This force comes from the interaction with the rocket.

Now, care to quit all the BS and actually answer my question, or do you know that doing so will expose you as a liar and a troll?
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then
"If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then" it would burn up from atmospheric drag in a few tens of seconds!

This video sums it up :


Let me show you one interesting comment one guy has left below this video :

J Roger Trudel
1 year ago (edited)
Why have many of us lost faith in science? Very simple, deception. NASA used to be wonderful at doing many scientific portrayals of space. Everything looked so real and most of us were really caught up with it from the 1960s on. But when NASA failed miserably in the 1990s on with fake imagery, the fake ISS, and all those unprofessional actors acting as astronauts (astro-nuts), many of us woke up to reality. And, when an intelligent person has seen and witnessed the fakery of a science field for a few times, that is when 100% of that particular field of science comes into question. How would you feel about someone (example - a Mexican), that has deceived you, say for over 20 years, and you discover the truth about that person. You become very upset inside, and some will even go to the point of never trusting another Mexican person ever again. The same has come to past with space and aeronautical science. Once you have discovered the deception you begin to and lose complete faith in the whole works of its program, and you begin to question everything. As for rockets functioning propulsion in the vacuum of space, for me that is like pulling a boat out of the water, firing up the engine, engaging the prop, rev up the engine, and let's go to town boys

I repeat, why can we see them in orbit after a launch?
If they are seen moving at such a clip, it has to be the rockets work.

I know I'm late to the party, as I've been away for a few days, but hopefully I'm not necro'ing this quote too badly.
If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

cikljamas, you've made this same mistake a few times before, and in fact was one of the motivations of me signing up for these forums.  I think if you step back and think about the following, you'll (hopefully) start understanding where we are coming from.
Speed is not force.
Furthermore, acceleration is not speed.

In order for a rocket to move 17,000 mph, no counteracting object need be moving 17,000 mph in the opposite direction.  Rather, an equal force needs to be applied in the opposite direction.  F = m a, which means the only time you'll get an equal acceleration (speed over time) is if the mass is equal.  And even with equal mass, you won't get equal speeds if one object is constantly chucking mass out the back, and the other object only got chucked out once and then left alone.

I don't care to look up the mass and acceleration of a rocket and its exhaust, so let's make up some numbers.  Let's say the rocket is 1000 kg and moving at 20 m/s/s.  I don't know, I'm just making up numbers.  That makes a force of 20,000 N.  So we should expect to see a reaction force of 20 kN in the opposite direction.  We are not expecting to see 1000 kg of mass flying out the other end though.  How mass is the exhaust?  I don't know, let's say it's 10 kg for some moment in time.  If that's the case, then we would expect that exhaust to be accelerated at 2000 m/s/s.  Unlike the rocket, that exhaust doesn't get accelerated for very long though, just a fraction of a second.  Maybe a hundredth of a second?  Maybe I really should be looking up numbers for this exercise.  Let's say it takes a hundredth of a second to be pushed out the nozzle. If so, then we should expect to see that exhaust moving at about 20 m/s.  With our totally made-up numbers.

Are you following me?

Speed is not force.  Acceleration is not force.  The application of equal and opposite forces do not result in equal acceleration unless the mass is the same.  Big mass for a rocket, small mass for exhaust.  The application of acceleration depends on how long it's being applied.  Long time for a rocket, small time for exhaust.


Bonus: the "force of gravity" is also not F in that equation.  It's the acceleration.  So that's why there's no reason to expect feathers to float during high tide.

Bom Tishop gave it up.
It takes time to do experiments like this. He even indicated he would need to work with others.
But even if he did, could you really blame him where you have already indicated you will be dismissing any results he produces?


Meanwhile, it seems you have given up as you have still been unable to answer a very simple question and instead just repeat the same refuted nonsense again and again.

Once more:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
Again, you have very limited options.
You can decide that contrary to all known physics, the gas will magically remain trapped inside the rocket, even with an opening to the vacuum, but then you would need to explain this magic; or you can be rational and accept that the gas will leave the rocket, going in the direction of the opening.
But that then means the gas is being accelerated as it is changing velocity. Again you have a choice.
You can decide that contrary to all known physics, the gas will magically accelerate without any application of force, but that causes 2 issues, the explanation for why it accelerates without a force, and addressing why the rocket can't do the same; alternatively you can again be rational and accept that the gas needs a force to be applied to it to accelerate it.
But then what is the other body? Again you have a choice.
You can decide that contrary to all known physics, no second body is needed, that instead the gas will be accelerated by a magical force with no reactionary force, but then need to explain why that happens, and why the rocket can't do the same; alternatively you can be rational and accept that it does need a second body and a second force, and as you have already stated that the only body there is the rocket, that means that the rocket would have a force applied to it by the gas, and thus work in a vacuum.

So your choices pretty much boil down to reject firmly established physics of motion, or accept that rockets work in a vacuum.
What is it going to be?
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Jack, I've just read something very interesting on web :

Do you ever just annoy yourself?

I’m not talking about when you don’t like something about yourself like your big mouth or small brain, or whatever, I’m talking about when you are just annoyed at the uncomparable size of your mouth vs the size of your brain.


Secondly, have you ever been annoyed by going from failure to failure (without loss of enthusiasm) in your futile attempts to deny these irrefutable facts (knowing very well that there is no way you can deny obvious things) :

“...to the question whether or not the motion of the Earth in space can be   made   perceptible   in   terrestrial   experiments.   We   have   already   remarked...that  all  attempts  of  this  nature  led  to  a  negative  result.  Before  the  theory  of  relativity  was  put  forward,  it  was  difficult  to  become reconciled to this negative result.” Physicist, Albert Einstein

“I have come to believe that the motion of the Earth cannot be detected by  any  optical  experiment,  though  the  Earth  is  revolving  around  the  Sun.” Physicist, Albert Einstein

“Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest...” Physicist, Henrick Lorentz

“A great deal of research has been carried out concerning the influence of the Earth’s movement. The results were always negative.” Physicist, Henri Poincaré

“This    conclusion    directly    contradicts    the    explanation...which    presupposes that the Earth moves.” Physicist, Albert Michelson

“The  data  [of  Michelson-Morley]  were  almost  unbelievable...  There  was only one other possible conclusion to draw — that the Earth was at rest.” Physicist, Bernard Jaffe

“We   can’t   feel   our   motion   through   space,   nor   has   any   physical   experiment ever proved that the Earth actually is in motion.” Historian, Lincoln Barnett, foreword by Albert Einstein

“There is no planetary observation by which we on Earth can prove that the Earth is moving in an orbit around the sun.” Physicist, I. Bernard Cohen

“....The  easiest  explanation  was  that  the  earth  was  fixed  in  the  ether  and that everything else in the universe moved with respect to the earth and  the  ether....Such  an  idea  was  not  considered  seriously,  since  it  would mean in effect that our earth occupied the omnipotent position in the  universe,  with  all  the  other  heavenly  bodies  paying  homage  by  moving around it.” Physicist, James Coleman

“The   Michelson-Morley   experiment   confronted   scientists   with   an   embarrassing  alternative.  On  the  one  hand  they  could  scrap  the  ether  theory   which   had   explained   so   many   things   about   electricity,   magnetism, and light. Or if they insisted on retaining the ether they had to abandon the still more venerable Copernican theory that the earth is in  motion.  To  many  physicists  it  seemed  almost  easier  to  believe  that the  earth  stood  still  than  that  waves  –  light  waves,  electromagnetic  waves – could exist without a medium to sustain them. It was a serious dilemma  and  one  that  split  scientific  thought  for  a  quarter  century.  Many  new  hypotheses  were  advanced  and  rejected.  The  experiment  was tried again by Morley and by others, with the same conclusion; the apparent velocity of the earth through the ether was zero.” Historian, Lincoln Barnett, foreword by Albert Einstein

“So which is real, the Ptolemaic or Copernican system? Although it is not  uncommon  for  people  to  say  that  Copernicus  proved  Ptolemy  wrong,  that  is  not  true....one  can  use  either  picture  as  a  model  of  the  universe,  for  our  observations  of  the  heavens  can  be  explained  by  assuming either the earth or the sun to be at rest.” Physicist, Stephen Hawking

“...Thus  we  may  return  to  Ptolemy’s  point  of  view  of  a  ‘motionless  Earth.’ This would mean that we use a system of reference rigidly fixed to  the  Earth  in  which  all  stars  are  performing  a  rotational  motion  with  the  same  angular  velocity  around  the  Earth’s  axis...one  has  to  show  that  the  transformed  metric  can  be  regarded  as  produced  according  to  Einstein’s  field  equations,  by  distant  rotating  masses.  This  has  been  done by Thirring. He calculated a field due to a rotating, hollow, thick-walled  sphere  and  proved  that  inside  the  cavity  it  behaved  as  though  there  were  centrifugal  and  other  inertial  forces  usually  attributed  to  absolute  space.  Thus  from  Einstein’s  point  of  view,  Ptolemy  and  Copernicus are equally right. What point of view is chosen is a matter of expediency.” Physicist, Max Born

“The  ancient  argument  over  whether  the  Earth  rotates  or  the  heavens  revolve  around  it  (as  Aristotle  taught)  is  seen  to  be  no  more  than  an  argument  over  the  simplest  choice  of  a  frame  of  reference.  Obviously,  the   most   convenient   choice   is   the   universe....   Nothing   except   inconvenience prevents us from choosing the Earth as a fixed frame of reference...If   we   choose   to   make   the   Earth   our   fixed   frame   of   reference, we do not even do violence to everyday speech. We say that the  sun  rises  in  the  morning,  sets  in  the  evening;  the  Big  Dipper  revolves  around  the  North  Star.” Science historian, Martin Gardner

“What  happened  when  the  experiment  was  done  in  1887?  There  was  never,  never,  in  any  orientation  at  any  time  of  year,  any  shift  in  the  interference pattern; none; no shift; no fringe shift; nothing. What’s the implication?  Here  was  an  experiment  that  was  done  to  measure  the  speed of the earth’s motion through the ether. This was an experiment that  was  ten  times  more  sensitive  than  it  needed  to  be.  It  could  have  detected  speeds  as  low  as  two  miles  a  second  instead  of  the  known  20mps  that  the  earth  as  in  its  orbital  motion  around  the  sun.  It  didn’t  detect    it.    What’s    the    conclusion    from    the    Michelson-Morley    experiment? The implication is that the earth is not moving...”  Physicist, Richard Wolfson

“If [earth] it isn’t moving relative to the ether, then earth alone among the  cosmos  is  at  rest  relative  to  the  ether.  Now  that  may  be  an  absurd  possibility but maybe it’s true. I think you can see that this is not going to  be  very  philosophically  satisfying,  and  it  isn’t  satisfying  physically  either,  but  it  violates  the  Copernican  Principle  that  the  earth  isn’t  special. So if Earth is at rest relative to the ether, then it alone is at rest. That makes us  pretty  special...Physicist, Richard Wolfson

“This ‘null’ result was one of the great puzzles of physics at the end of the  nineteenth  century.  One  possibility  was  that...v  would  be  zero  and  no  fringe  shift  would  be  expected.  But  this  implies  that  the  earth  is  somehow  a  preferred  object;  only  with  respect  to  the  earth  would  the  speed  of  light  be  c  as  predicted  by  Maxwell’s  equations.  This  is  tantamount  to  assuming  that  the  earth  is  the  central  body  of  the  universe.” Physicist, Douglas C. Giancoli

“Michelson  and  Morley  found  shifts  in  the  interference  fringes,  but  they were very much smaller than the size of the effect expected from the known orbital motion of the Earth” Physicist, John D. Norton

“...it  is  very  important  to  acknowledge  that  the  Copernican  theory  offers  a  very  exact  calculation  of  the  apparent  movements  of  the planets...even  though  it  must  be  conceded  that,  from  the  modern  standpoint practically identical results could be obtained by means of a somewhat  revised  Ptolemaic  system....It  makes  no  sense,  accordingly,  to speak of a difference in truth between Copernicus and Ptolemy: both conceptions   are   equally   permissible   descriptions.   What   has   been   considered as the greatest discovery of occidental wisdom, as opposed to that of antiquity, is questioned as to its truth value.” Physicist, Hans Reichenbach

“...I   tell   my   classes   that   had   Galileo   confronted   the   Church   in   Einstein’s day, he would have lost the argument for better reasons. You may use my name if you wish.”  Mathematician, Carl E. Wulfman

“The  Copernican  revolution  outshines  everything  since  the  rise  of  Christianity  and  reduces  the  Renaissance  and  Reformation  to  the  rank  of  mere  episodes,  mere  internal  displacements,  within  the  system  of medieval   Christendom.   Since   it   changed   the   character   of   men’s   habitual  mental  operations  even  in  the  conduct  of  the  non-material  sciences,  while   transforming   the   whole   diagram   of   the   physical   universe  and  the  very  texture  of  human  life  itself,  it  looms  so  large  as  the real origin both of the modern world and of the modern mentality, that  our  customary  periodisation  of  European  history  has  become  an  anachronism and an encumbrance.” Historian, Herbert Butterfield

COPERNICAN PRINCIPLE DESTROYED - part 2 :


2. Does anybody have a link to a rocket launch with rear facing cameras, where the rocket continues out into space eventually showing the whole globe (how long does it take for NASA to deliver geostationary satellite to it's orbit)????

3. How high must one get before the atmospheric rotation does not exist? For if all rotates it must have to stop somewhere.

3a. Sagnac effect proves that the earth is stationary and that an aether rotates 24h/day around motionless earth. However, aether's rotation is subtle, that is to say, we can detect it with interferometers (MMX, SAGNAC, MGP, ring-laser gyros, etc...), but aether's rotation doesn't produce an effect which could be detected with directional gyros (heading indicators). However, if earth rotated heading indicators would indicate (detect) that motion by constantly pointing towards let's say North Star (or The Sun) while our orientation points at the horizon turns around our spatially fixed heading indicator's needle. So, if earth really rotated then mechanical heading indicators would detect earth's motion while we firmly stand on the rigid rotating earth or/and fly within earth's rotating atmosphere (going straight up - strictly away from earth's center, or using different kind of gyro (artificial horizon) while flying along/above the equator), but that ability (of mechanical heading indicators) of detection of the motion of the earth (and earth's atmosphere) would come to a stop at certain altitude (somewhere beyond earth's atmosphere) because once we exit rotational environment of the highest earth's envelope, that is to say : once we reach stationary environment of a stationary space then our mechanical heading indicator will cease to drift (to indicate change in directional position) because now the needle of our mechanical heading indicator will be constantly aligned with one of it's dashes on the cursor. THE QUESTION IS : Where is (at what altitude) that boundary? Have you ever asked yourself that question???

3b. Even within geocentric scenario we would have the problem with that boundary, because unlike in HC scenario, within which going beyond that boundary means entering motionless space, within GC scenario, going beyond that boundary means entering MECHANICALLY (NOT AETHERLY) MOVING SPACE!!! However, if we assume that space (a region beyond the final frontier of earth's stationary (this time stationary because now we talk about GC scenario) envelops) is of an unknown nature (electrical nature for example), and that stars and planets are also of some totally different (from what official science teaches) nature, then in all possibility we will never discover true nature of space, stars and planets, because we will never be able to exit/escape earth's final boundary (biblical firmament) so to directly research it's true nature!!!

3c. Is the Founder of Modern Rocket Science trying to tell us something?

4. Hubble writes :

He writes:

Thus the use of dimming corrections leads to a particular kind of universe, but one which most students are likely to reject as highly improbable. Furthermore, the strange features of this universe are merely the dimming corrections expressed in different terms. Omit the dimming factors, and the oddities vanish. We are left with the simple, even familiar concept of a sensibly infinite universe. All the difficulties are transferred to the interpretation of redshifts which cannot then be the familiar velocity shifts....Meanwhile, on the basis of the evidence now available, apparent discrepancies between theory and observation must be recognized. A choice is presented, as once before in the days of Copernicus, between a strangely small, finite universe and a sensibly infinite universe plus a new principle of nature.[/color]

5. In figure 1, we look down on the orbit of the Earth and the spinning Earth’s north pole. We shall assign speeds to the Earth’s motions: its orbital speed around the Sun, Vo, and its speed of axial daily rotation Vd.  Now consider a point on the surface of the Earth at noon  time.  What is the speed of that point in space at noon?  It  is Vo+Vd. What about at midnight when the same point has moved around with  the spinning Earth? What is the speed of that point in space?  It is Vo-Vd.  So, your maximum speed is at noon time and the minimum speed is at midnight.  And every day every point on the Earth undergoes a variation of speed from a maximum Vo+Vd to a minimum Vo-Vd If every point on the Earth goes from a maximum to minimum speed once every 24 hours that means that every point on Earth is alternately accelerated and decelerated, accelerated and decelerated, and so on.  And Galileo’s conclusion is  that in the oceans and seas, subjected to this daily alternation of acceleration and deceleration, you would get the sloshing of the tides!

(https://i.postimg.cc/W4kjbV4w/GALILEO-FIGURE-1.jpg)

 If we put an accelerometer at the equator, why at night we do not see an acceleration and a deceleration by day if the earth really rotates?
The dark side of the earth away from the sun is moving faster of course (relative to the sun) as it is shooting forward.  And the sunny side is moving 'backward" or at least slower than the dark side.
So... 65,000 mph around the sun.
Dark side moving at 66,000mph.
Light side moving at 64,000mph.
So... In 12 hours from midnight to mid day, YOU should reduce in speed my 2000mph around the sun.  This means that every min in that 12 hours, you are slowing down 2.777777 mph.  Very small amount.  A human cannot feel this.  But an accelerometer TOTALLY can.  This mean I should be able to put my cellphone on a table and see the accelerometer showing a reading.

We are living in an era AFTER the theory of relativity was put forward.  Not only put forward, but verified by every test thrown at it.

Why do you seem wedded to the  Michelson–Morley experiment being the last valid experiment ever performed by humanity.

Things have moved on.

1. Things have moved on, but in an opposite direction :


No!  Pretty much all physicists are on board with Einstein and the theory of relativity.  It’s literally text book stuff.

Try to show he was wrong if you like, but please stop quote mining physicists to claim that it’s not generally accepted.

BTW, do geocentrists accept the normally quoted distances to things like other planets, stars, galaxies, etc?

Really?
What you mean sure seems to be "I know I can't honestly answer that without admitting rockets work in vacuums, so I will go off on yet another tangent."

You are just spamming the same refuted off topic nonsense.

Your quote-mining of people in regards to Earth's motion has nothing at all to do with if rockets can or cannot work in a vacuum.
If you want to discuss that, go back to the threads where you have already had your quote mining exposed and where it is actually on topic.

Now again, how about you try to answer my very simple question?
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?
What will it be? You can magically contain gasses even with a container that is exposed to a vacuum with a hole in it?
You can magically accelerate things without any application of force and thus rockets can at least hypothetically work in a vacuum?
You can magically apply a force to an object without a second body being involved and thus rockets can at least hypothetically work in a vacuum?
Or the only rational option of rockets will work in a vacuum as the rocket and gas interact with the rocket applying a force to move the gas backwards and the gas applying a force to move the rocket forwards?

Any thoughts of a luminiferous aether were debunked because no aether theory could explanation the findings of many observations dating back to Bradley's stellar aberration
And, whatever Robert Sungenis says, stellar aberration still kills any thought of a Geocentric Universe.

Hubble's "strangely small, finite universe" was the Universe seen before Amdromeda was recognised as another galaxy comparable with our own Milky Way.
His "sensibly infinite universe" is the Universe of modern cosmology where there an uncountable number of galaxies like Amdromeda and the Milky Way.

The "choice" Hubble referred to was not between the  Heliocentric Solar system and the Geocentric Universe.
He just likened the choice between the "small" (by modern standards) Universe of the Kepler/Newton era and the "sensibly infinite universe" of modern Cosmology!

You realise you are talking to someone who offered his own geocentric proofs (no, zigzag argument is not one of them), but whenever i present my own argument you respond with objections like these "Who are you?" "What are your credentials?" "Find me one reputable scientist who agrees with your standpoint!" etc... Then i quote a whole bunch of the most honored scientists who admit (some of them openly, some of them between the lines) that the earth is at rest, and when you have nothing sanely to respond with then you resort to a well known technique of pulling out of your asses typical stupid excuses like these : You don't understand what they are talking about (They didn't mean that way) or It's meaningless cherry-picking (without offering any proof for your such accusation), etc...

But i am not the only one who is constantly under that kind of barrage fire :

 Geocentrists Are “Cherry-Pickers”

Keating:  page  281:  “While  much  of  the  reportage  is  accurate,  often  the  interpretation  is  not.  In  many  places  evidenced  has  been cherry-picked.”

R.  Sungenis:  You  would  think  that  if  Keating  is  seeking  to  convince  his  audience  that  his  accusations  are  correct,  he  would  cite  at  least  one  example  of  so-called  “cherry-picked  evidence”  in  Galileo  Was  Wrong. That he doesn’t do so, only speaks of Keating’s methodology – shoot first, ask questions later.

Stupid Geocentrists Ignore Four Centuries of Science!

Keating:  page  280:  “Is  is  prudent  for  him  to  ignore  four  centuries  of  scientific  investigation  (much  of  it  by  Christians  who were as sincere in their faith as are today’s geocentrists) and to  adopt  the  ideas  of  a  writer  who  has  no  formal  training  in  science   beyond   a   few   lower-division   college   courses.   Is   it   prudent  for  the  reader  to  take  as  his  own  the  historical  and  theological judgment of someone who is neither a historian nor a theologian?  The  new  geocentrists  say  ‘yes’  to  all  of  these  questions.”

R.  Sungenis:  I  find  it  interesting  that  Keating,  who  has  been  teaching  Catholic  theology,  history  and  science  for  the  last  35  years  at  Catholic Answers, yet is not a scientist, a theologian or a historian, has the audacity to  question  me  on  the  very  things  he  is  lacking.  Keating  pontificates  on  evolution  and  the  Big  Bang  as  if  he  were  an  expert.  He  hires  and  fires  people  based  on  his  own  understanding  of  Catholic  theology.  He  has  written numerous books portraying himself as one of the authorities on all things  theological.  So  is  it  prudent  to  listen  to  someone  who  isn’t  even  aware of the glass house he lives in? As  for  myself,  the  best  thing  about  my  work  in  geocentrism  is  that  its  viability   comes   from   those   I   admit   are   much   more   skilled   and   knowledgeable than me. Using their expertise is the hallmark of my work, both  in  science  and  history.  In  science  there  are  such  experts  as  Einstein,  Hawking,  Mach,  Hoyle  and  Ellis,  whom  I  use  consistently  to  support  geocentrism  scientifically.  In  history  there  are  people  like  the  Church  Fathers,  the  medievals,  the  saints,  doctors,  theologians  and  popes  of  the  Catholic  Church  who  have  all  gone  before  me  and  have  all  given  their  testimony that geocentrism is true. Then there are personal friends of mine who  are  Ph.D.  scientists  (Bouw,  Bennett,  Popov,  Bernadic)  that  I  have  relied upon to deal with the subject. The only thing I have done is gathered all  their  work  and  put  it  into  a  book,  and  used  my  teaching  and  writing  abilities to communicate all that they have taught before me.

IN ADDITION :


As for JackBlack (STILL NOT) being annoyed by himself (his putting forward persistently already answered question(s)) i can only remind you all to this post :

So, the next time when you put forward for umpteenth time in a row, your famous idiotic question i will simply direct you to this very post. O.K.?
And the post goes like this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/cJLdxTNF/ROCKETS-NASA-S-SILLIEST-LIE.jpg)

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense. If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one. Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks. If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.

This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do.

Why do you think it's not the case? Which part do you think is impossible?

Seriously? lol

Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum. Please note that I have respectfully observed Newton's Third Law in my above diagram. I think our poor friend Isaac is rolling and howling in his grave - seeing how NASA is abusing / distorting his laws in order to fool the world. Sadly, most people seem to keep buying into their shameless skullduggery.
Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

Was this helpful in a sense that now you are ready to admit that there is no error in the following explanation :


Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

his putting forward persistently already answered question(s)
So far the only answer to it is that rockets do work in a vacuum, which I provided myself.
You are yet to provide any honest answer to this question.

Spamming the same refuted lies repeatedly to try and avoid the question will not help.

It is a very simple question which demands a fairly direct answer and only has a few options available.
So which option will you pick?
Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Or will you continue with the same childish tactics of avoiding it?

If you want to claim something else you need to actually address what has been said rather than just repeating the same refuted lies.

Why?
Of course rocket experiences "air drag in front of the rocket" but that is against the direction of motion.

But your "existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it" is totally meaningless!

And object travelling through a fluid will experience an increased pressure in front, impeding its progress and a reduced pressure pressure behind, again impeding its progress.

Learn some fluid mechanics and aerodynamics!

If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one.
No one, other than YOU, is saying that "rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance" so stop you usual straw-manning tactics!

The "rocket's exhaust plume does . . . encounter . . . air resistance".
That "air resistance" cannot, however, transmit any thrust to the rocket because that exhaust plume is moving away from the rocket at a hypersonic velocity and that has been explained many times but YOU refuse to listen!

Quote from: cikljamas
Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks.
Most of the thrust does come from the momentum of the huge mass of exhaust gas expelled at an extremely high velocity.
If you cannot understand such a simple concept as Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, which is force = time rate of change of momentum that's YOUR problem, not ours or NASA's!

Some thrust also comes from the pressure difference term, exhaust area x (exhaust pressure - outside pressure), and this increases as the external pressure falls.
This is why the thrust of a given rocket engine is higher in the vacuum of space than at sea level.

There is no way you can deny obvious things :

“...to the question whether or not the motion of the Earth in space can be   made   perceptible   in   terrestrial   experiments.   We   have   already   remarked...that  all  attempts  of  this  nature  led  to  a  negative  result.  Before  the  theory  of  relativity  was  put  forward,  it  was  difficult  to  become reconciled to this negative result.” Physicist, Albert Einstein

“I have come to believe that the motion of the Earth cannot be detected by  any  optical  experiment,  though  the  Earth  is  revolving  around  the  Sun.” Physicist, Albert Einstein

“Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest...” Physicist, Henrick Lorentz

“A great deal of research has been carried out concerning the influence of the Earth’s movement. The results were always negative.” Physicist, Henri Poincaré

“This    conclusion    directly    contradicts    the    explanation...which    presupposes that the Earth moves.” Physicist, Albert Michelson

“The  data  [of  Michelson-Morley]  were  almost  unbelievable...  There  was only one other possible conclusion to draw — that the Earth was at rest.” Physicist, Bernard Jaffe

“We   can’t   feel   our   motion   through   space,   nor   has   any   physical   experiment ever proved that the Earth actually is in motion.” Historian, Lincoln Barnett, foreword by Albert Einstein

“....The  easiest  explanation  was  that  the  earth  was  fixed  in  the  ether  and that everything else in the universe moved with respect to the earth and  the  ether....Such  an  idea  was  not  considered  seriously,  since  it  would mean in effect that our earth occupied the omnipotent position in the  universe,  with  all  the  other  heavenly  bodies  paying  homage  by  moving around it.” Physicist, James Coleman

“The   Michelson-Morley   experiment   confronted   scientists   with   an   embarrassing  alternative.  On  the  one  hand  they  could  scrap  the  ether  theory   which   had   explained   so   many   things   about   electricity,   magnetism, and light. Or if they insisted on retaining the ether they had to abandon the still more venerable Copernican theory that the earth is in  motion.  To  many  physicists  it  seemed  almost  easier  to  believe  that the  earth  stood  still  than  that  waves  –  light  waves,  electromagnetic  waves – could exist without a medium to sustain them. It was a serious dilemma  and  one  that  split  scientific  thought  for  a  quarter  century.  Many  new  hypotheses  were  advanced  and  rejected.  The  experiment  was tried again by Morley and by others, with the same conclusion; the apparent velocity of the earth through the ether was zero.” Historian, Lincoln Barnett, foreword by Albert Einstein

“So which is real, the Ptolemaic or Copernican system? Although it is not  uncommon  for  people  to  say  that  Copernicus  proved  Ptolemy  wrong,  that  is  not  true....one  can  use  either  picture  as  a  model  of  the  universe,  for  our  observations  of  the  heavens  can  be  explained  by  assuming either the earth or the sun to be at rest.” Physicist, Stephen Hawking

“...Thus  we  may  return  to  Ptolemy’s  point  of  view  of  a  ‘motionless  Earth.’ This would mean that we use a system of reference rigidly fixed to  the  Earth  in  which  all  stars  are  performing  a  rotational  motion  with  the  same  angular  velocity  around  the  Earth’s  axis...one  has  to  show  that  the  transformed  metric  can  be  regarded  as  produced  according  to  Einstein’s  field  equations,  by  distant  rotating  masses.  This  has  been  done by Thirring. He calculated a field due to a rotating, hollow, thick-walled  sphere  and  proved  that  inside  the  cavity  it  behaved  as  though  there  were  centrifugal  and  other  inertial  forces  usually  attributed  to  absolute  space.  Thus  from  Einstein’s  point  of  view,  Ptolemy  and  Copernicus are equally right. What point of view is chosen is a matter of expediency.” Physicist, Max Born

“The  ancient  argument  over  whether  the  Earth  rotates  or  the  heavens  revolve  around  it  (as  Aristotle  taught)  is  seen  to  be  no  more  than  an  argument  over  the  simplest  choice  of  a  frame  of  reference.  Obviously,  the   most   convenient   choice   is   the   universe....   Nothing   except   inconvenience prevents us from choosing the Earth as a fixed frame of reference...If   we   choose   to   make   the   Earth   our   fixed   frame   of   reference, we do not even do violence to everyday speech. We say that the  sun  rises  in  the  morning,  sets  in  the  evening;  the  Big  Dipper  revolves  around  the  North  Star.” Science historian, Martin Gardner

“What  happened  when  the  experiment  was  done  in  1887?  There  was  never,  never,  in  any  orientation  at  any  time  of  year,  any  shift  in  the  interference pattern; none; no shift; no fringe shift; nothing. What’s the implication?  Here  was  an  experiment  that  was  done  to  measure  the  speed of the earth’s motion through the ether. This was an experiment that  was  ten  times  more  sensitive  than  it  needed  to  be.  It  could  have  detected  speeds  as  low  as  two  miles  a  second  instead  of  the  known  20mps  that  the  earth  as  in  its  orbital  motion  around  the  sun.  It  didn’t  detect    it.    What’s    the    conclusion    from    the    Michelson-Morley    experiment? The implication is that the earth is not moving...”  Physicist, Richard Wolfson

“If [earth] it isn’t moving relative to the ether, then earth alone among the  cosmos  is  at  rest  relative  to  the  ether.  Now  that  may  be  an  absurd  possibility but maybe it’s true. I think you can see that this is not going to  be  very  philosophically  satisfying,  and  it  isn’t  satisfying  physically  either,  but  it  violates  the  Copernican  Principle  that  the  earth  isn’t  special. So if Earth is at rest relative to the ether, then it alone is at rest. That makes us  pretty  special...Physicist, Richard Wolfson

“This ‘null’ result was one of the great puzzles of physics at the end of the  nineteenth  century.  One  possibility  was  that...v  would  be  zero  and  no  fringe  shift  would  be  expected.  But  this  implies  that  the  earth  is  somehow  a  preferred  object;  only  with  respect  to  the  earth  would  the  speed  of  light  be  c  as  predicted  by  Maxwell’s  equations.  This  is  tantamount  to  assuming  that  the  earth  is  the  central  body  of  the  universe.” Physicist, Douglas C. Giancoli

“Michelson  and  Morley  found  shifts  in  the  interference  fringes,  but  they were very much smaller than the size of the effect expected from the known orbital motion of the Earth” Physicist, John D. Norton

“...it  is  very  important  to  acknowledge  that  the  Copernican  theory  offers  a  very  exact  calculation  of  the  apparent  movements  of  the planets...even  though  it  must  be  conceded  that,  from  the  modern  standpoint practically identical results could be obtained by means of a somewhat  revised  Ptolemaic  system....It  makes  no  sense,  accordingly,  to speak of a difference in truth between Copernicus and Ptolemy: both conceptions   are   equally   permissible   descriptions.   What   has   been   considered as the greatest discovery of occidental wisdom, as opposed to that of antiquity, is questioned as to its truth value.” Physicist, Hans Reichenbach

“Tycho Brahe proposed a dualistic scheme, with the Sun going around the Earth but with all other planets going around the Sun, and in making this proposal he thought he was offering something radically different from Copernicus. And in rejecting Tycho’s scheme, Kepler obviously thought so too. Yet in principle there is no difference.” Astronomer, Fred Hoyle

“Thus, even now, three and a half centuries after Galileo’s condemnation by the Inquisition, it is still remarkably difficult to say categorically whether the earth moves...” Physicist, Julian Barbour

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641

"Redshifts would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the ancient conception of a central Earth[...] This hypothesis cannot be disproved" - Edwin Hubble in The Observational Approach to Cosmology "

All this evidence that the universe looks the same whichever direction we look in might seem to suggest there is something special about our place in the universe. In particular, it might seem that if we observe all other galaxies to be moving away from us, then we must be at the center of the universe[...] We reject it only on grounds of modesty" - Stephen Hawking in A Brief History of Time

"If the Earth were at the center of the universe, the attraction of the surrounding mass of stars would also produce redshifts wherever we looked! This theory seems quite consistent with our astronomical observations" - Paul Davies in Nature

"I can construct you a spherically symmetrical universe with Earth at its center, and you cannot disprove it[...] A lot of cosmology tries to hide that." - George Ellis in Scientific American

"The new results are either telling us that all of science is wrong and we're the center of the universe, or maybe the data is simply incorrect" - Lawrence Krauss 2006

"Without Dark Energy, Earth must be] literally at the center of the universe, which is, to say the least, unusual" - Lawrence Krauss 2009

"When you look at [the cosmic microwave background] map, you also see that the structure that is observed, is in fact, in a weird way, correlated with the plane of the earth around the sun. Is this Copernicus coming back to haunt us? That’s crazy. We’re looking out at the whole universe. There’s no way there should be a correlation of structure with our motion of the earth around the sun—the plane of the earth around the sun—the ecliptic. That would say we are truly the center of the universe." - Lawrence Krauss

"If the universe possesses a center, we must be very close to it" - Joseph Silk in The Big Bang: The Creation and Evolution of the Universe

As for JackBlack (STILL NOT) being annoyed by himself (his putting forward persistently already answered question(s)) i can only remind you all to this post :

This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do.
Why do you think it's not the case? Which part do you think is impossible?
Seriously? lol
I've ignored the stupidity of your above diagram up till now but I guess it proves that you have no idea what a real rocket does!

A rocket does not expel "more than half of any rocket's fuel mass" is one explosive burst like that at any time!

A real rocket expels far more than half its LAUNCH MASS, not just "more than half of any rocket's fuel mass" to get its payload into orbit.

But it does this gradually during the whole period of the flight.

For example, the SpaceX Falcon 9 has a launch mass of almost 550,000 kg and can launch 22,800 kg into Low Earth Orbit. Most of the difference is burnt propellant!
The first stage's 9 Merlin 1D engines burn for 162 sec and can produce up to 7,607 kN (over 775,000 kg.force).
The first stage fuel load is about 380,000 kg so it burns an average of about 2350 kg/sec.

Just the first stage fuel burnt is almost 70% of the whole launch mass and the second stage fuel is still to be burnt.

You can chase up the details of the second stage.

So your claims of "more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed" are far from the mark.

But an important point is that as the fuel is burnt the mass is the rocket falls off and so the acceleration increase with altitude.

Since the Heliocentric Solar System was considered well proven beyond any reasonable stage by the time of Henri Poincaré, Henrick Lorentz, Michelson or Einstein that result was part of what led to the development of Special Relativity.
None of those people doubted the Heliocentric Solar System in the slightest.

Quote from: cikljamas
“I have come to believe that the motion of the Earth cannot be detected by any optical experiment, though the Earth is revolving around the Sun.” Physicist, Albert Einstein
And what does that prove? Nothing because absolute linear velocities cannot be detected and while an acceleration can, in principle be measured the centripetal acceleration of the earth's orbiting the sun is not only extremely small but inseparable from the centripetal acceleration of the earth's rotation.

But the rotation of the earth can now be easily measured.

We are living in an era AFTER the theory of relativity was put forward.  Not only put forward, but verified by every test thrown at it.

Why do you seem wedded to the  Michelson–Morley experiment being the last valid experiment ever performed by humanity.

Things have moved on.

And a year after Einstein said that, Mr. Michelson invented a more precise spectroscope that could measure it.

I have never said I was not doing the rocket project. I have also not "disappeared" if you look at my post history. I just haven't been in this thread as it is continued arguing and I don't have anything to add.

Building the rocket apparatus, controls for said apparatus, scale, holder, go pro holder etc etc is time consuming if all the issues with other tests should be avoided.

It is something I am tinkering with in my spare time (which is usually quite limited). I have already drawn up a few possible ideas in solid works. I will probably create a separate thread when I get closer. I will then be at Boydsters Mercy for editing and actually posting it on YouTube.



Also, if someone is very serious about it and can do the rocket etc and just needs a large vacuum chamber to do the test. I am 100 percent willing to give them free access to the chamber (Dallas,tx) and all my resources at their disposal to complete the test.

There is no way you can deny obvious things :
You sure seem to be good at doing so.
The obvious thing is that rockets can work in a vacuum, yet you repeatedly deny it and just spout garbage.

Why are you so unwilling to answer such a simple question? Is it because you know the only answer will show that you have been lying for this entire thread?

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

If you want to claim something else you need to actually address what has been said rather than just repeating the same refuted lies.

I can't find the answer to the question:

Is there a force between a rocket and its exhaust?

If there is such force, then what stops rocket from pushing off its own exhaust?

If no such force, then what gives the acceleration to the exhaust out of the chamber and the nozzle?

Why should "single satellite" be "caught by the lens of astronut's GoPro camera"? Space is big!
The volume of space in the LEO altitudes is about 3,77,211,000,000 cubic kilometres and about 800 satellites big enough to hope to see.
You precious GoPro might see a satellite 3 km away (as a one pixel dot) if said satellite happened to pass through the field of view.
Try to work out the odds of seeing one satellite! Winning Lotto might offer better odds!

I went diving once. I didnt see a single blue whale. They say there are 25.000 blue whales in the ocean, bullshit.
And the volume of LEO space is far far bigger than the volume of all the water on earth!

@Bom Tishop, thanks for your reply...nice to hear you are still with us...so folks, stay tuned...

NASA is desperate...They released new video : "Astronaut walks in Space with a GoPro for 5 hours" ... 5 hours.... During these 5 long GoPro hours not a single satellite (allegedly, there are 4 987 satellites whizzing around above our heads every single day) has been caught by the lens of astronut's GoPro camera, not a single airplane exhaust trail has entered in the lens of our actor's GoPro camera...
Why should "single satellite" be "caught by the lens of astronut's GoPro camera"? Space is big!
The volume of space in the LEO altitudes is about 3,77,211,000,000 cubic kilometres and about 800 satellites big enough to hope to see.
You precious GoPro might see a satellite 3 km away (as a one pixel dot) if said satellite happened to pass through the field of view.
Try to work out the odds of seeing one satellite! Winning Lotto might offer better odds!

Little people, like you, can't seem to understand big things - they scare you or something!

Little people like Rabinoz and Keating can't handle the truth 1 :

Second,  Keating  extracts  my  quote  from  Volume  3  of  the  Galileo  Was  Wrong  series,  which  deals  with  the  history  between  Galileo  and  the  Church, not the science. But in Volumes 1 and 2, in which I deal with the science,  I  not  only  quote  and  present  the  whole  passage,  I  thoroughly  present to the reader the other two explanations for the Michelson-Morley experiment  that  Mr.  Keating  claims  I  purposely  left  out  of  the  quote  in  Volume 3. In fact, in the beginning of Volume 3, I tell the reader that since he has now finished Volumes 1 and 2, he is now ready to read Volume 3. Third,  the  reader  knows  why  I  truncated  the  quote,  since  I  want  to  emphasize to him something that I know he has never heard in his lifetime, namely,  that  instead  of  Einstein’s  Special  Relativity  theory,  an  equally  plausible solution to the Michelson-Morley experiment is that the Earth is not  moving  in  space,  but  that  this  solution  was  dismissed  out  of  hand  because  it  was  “unthinkable”  for  modern  man.  In  other  words,  it  wasn’t  science that led Einstein to Special Relativity, it was his philosophy!  Hence,  what  Mr.  Keating  regards  as  “the  correct  interpretation”  was  arrived  at  by  eliminating  the  other  equally  plausible  alternative  –  a  non-moving  Earth  –  from  the  scientific  possibilities  before  the  examination  ever got started! Some science. The simple fact is, Keating didn’t like the fact that a biography of Einstein told the reader, not once, but twice, that a motionless Earth was a legitimate answer to Michelson-Morley, so instead of  admitting  that  to  his  reader,  he  tries  to  make  me  look  devious  in  presenting  it  to  the  world.  I’m  beginning  to  think  that  Keating  has,  shall  we say, reached the end of his rope.

The  only  one  “misleading  the  reader”  here  is  Karl  Keating. In  reality,  the  only  reason  the  two  quotes  were  put  together  was  to  show  the  reader  the  two  instances  in  Clark’s  book  where  even  hean  obvious  admirer  of  Einsteinadmits  that  one  of  Einstein’s  choices  in  explaining  the  Michelson-Morley  experiment  was  to  posit  that  the  Earth  wasn’t  moving  in  space  but  that  Einstein  refused  to  consider  it.  Whereas  Keating  tries  to  eliminate  a  motionless  Earth  as  a  possibility,  Clark mentions it at least twice, and possibly a third time when he says on page 267: “As Einstein wrestled with the cosmological implications of the General Theory, the first of these alternatives, the earth-centered universe of the Middle Ages, was effectively ruled out.”

Nope, it is still you. You still seem to need to run away from a very simple question which shows the truth and continue to spam a bunch of nonsense with nothing at all to do with the thread.

You blatantly lying about alternatives to MM has nothing to do with if rockets work in space.

So are you going to admit that rockets do work in space?
If not, answer my question to clearly explain at what step of the process of very simple physics, physics break down to magically make it so rockets don't work?

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

I'm pretty sure why he keeps avoiding these basic questions is because he can't answer them. Hence splatting page length text in regard to entirely unrelated topics. It's painfully obvious that these intentional distractions in irrelevance are there to mask the defeat of his original premise.
Ultimately, it has been shown over and over again that rockets can work in a vacuum, thus his original argument is rendered moot.

So? NASA claims to have spotted the supposed Tesla car that supposedly left Earths orbit into deep space from much further away. If that is correct we should easily be able to see all these satellites and junk that is in our own 'backyard'

Space is huge ::)! When did you last see a car sized object moving at over 27,000 km/hour ;D?
Individual satellites, including the ISS and geostationary satellites can be seen though the latter need a telescope.

We still are. If you can see a fast moving Tesla from millions of kilometres away, you can see space junk or satellites a few hundred km away. You don't have atmosphere to obscure your view either.

Space myths and misconceptions like "Rockets can fly in a vacuum" are almost tantamount to an assertion "Something can come out of Nothing!"

A Universe From Nothing: Why There Is Something Rather Than Nothing (Free Press, 2012), by cosmologist Lawrence M. Krauss, has been lauded to the skies by fellow atheists such as A.C. Grayling, Sam Harris and Neil deGrasse Tyson. According to Richard Dawkins: "The title means exactly what it says. And what is says is devastating." I agree that what this book says on the subject of why something exists rather than nothing (which isn’t a lot -lol) is devastating, but only to the intellectual credibility of Krauss and his supporters.

Krauss spends most of his book redefining ‘nothing’ in terms of increasingly incorporeal somethings (from ‘empty space’ to reified ‘laws of physics’), as if this justified the conclusion that literal nothingness could be the cause of the cosmos. That’s like arguing that since its possible to live on less and less food each day it must be possible to live on no food.

Had George Carlin been aware of how NASA (modern science) is full of shit he wouldn't have been so pissed off by organized religions :

DAWKINS tries to define NOTHING (hilarious) :



Let's educate Dawkins on basic philosophy :


In a pinned comment below this video, i explained why Universe can't be eternal :


Why have many of us lost faith in science? Very simple, deception. NASA used to be wonderful at doing many scientific portrayals of space. Everything looked so real and most of us were really caught up with it from the 1960s on. But when NASA failed miserably in the 1990s on with fake imagery, the fake ISS, and all those unprofessional actors acting as astronauts (astro-nuts), many of us woke up to reality. And, when an intelligent person has seen and witnessed the fakery of a science field for a few times, that is when 100% of that particular field of science comes into question. How would you feel about someone (example - a Mexican), that has deceived you, say for over 20 years, and you discover the truth about that person. You become very upset inside, and some will even go to the point of never trusting another Mexican person ever again. The same has come to past with space and aeronautical science. Once you have discovered the deception you begin to and lose complete faith in the whole works of its program, and you begin to question everything. As for rockets functioning propulsion in the vacuum of space, for me that is like pulling a boat out of the water, firing up the engine, engaging the prop, rev up the engine, and let's go to town boys...

I have seen more than 50 hours of space walks,,and NEVER , NEVER ,NEVER  I have seen the pass through the depressurization module, at least is suspicious. The gopro is connected before going out because the astronaut can not connect it outside so....why they cut the more interesting part of the spacewalk?? Is it a secret? Sex photos there?? Please. at least once.

Have you ever seen the pass through the depressurization module of some APOLLO astro-nut(s)???

Let me amuse you some more :

The Big Bang Has Big Problems

Keating: page 304: “Then it was Sungenis’s turn. Flora was not impressed  by  what  she  heard.  ‘He  argued  that  the  mass  of  the  universe isn’t accounted for by heliocentrism’ and ‘that scientists have  added  dark  matter  ad  hoc  to  make  equations  work.  He  argued  that  if  the  Big  Bang  is  true,  the  universe  must  be  homogeneous and yet did not explain why that should be true. If anything, Newtonian physics—the law of universal gravitation—says that things would form in clumps as larger masses attracted smaller masses into them.’ This was an astute observation. If one posits  that  at  the  beginning  of  the  Big  Bang...matter  or  proto-matter  was  spewed  out  in  all  directions,  it  is  hard  to  conceive  how that material could have radiated exactly equally toward all distant  point.  If  there  were  the  slightest  disturbance  from  equal distribution and speed, matter indeed would have begun to ‘form into  clumps.’  When  those  clumps  became  large  enough,  they  would  have  formed  stars  and  various  bodies  that  orbit  stars.  Perfect  homogeneity  is  precisely  what  one  would  not  expect  to  find.  This  means  that  the  lack  of  homogeneity,  which  can  be  seen  even  with  the  naked  eye,  is  no  argument  against  the  Big  Bang.”

R. Sungenis: This is what happens when people who don’t study the issue begin  to  think  they  are  experts  on  how  to  explain  it  when  presented  with  challenges. Neither Keating nor Flora understand what the problem is. The  Big  Bang,  in  opposition  to  Steady  State  cosmology,  believes  in  a  beginning  to  our  universe  –  an  explosion  of  some  undefined  infinitesimal  entity that occurred 13.7 billion years ago. This entity is said to have been spawned from a previous universe, and that universe from an even earlier universe (which, as will see in chapter 3, is the same mysticism inherent in ancient  Indian  cosmology  that  believed  the  world  rested  on  the  backs  of  successive turtles).  As  if  getting  something  from  nothing  is  not  enough  of  a  problem,  the  second  thorn  in  the  side  for  the  Big  Bang  appears  when  the  rate  of  the  explosion  must  be  determined.  If  it’s  too  slow,  the  universe  will  go  into  what is called the “Big Crunch,” that is, gravity will pull all the exploding parts back together before it can evolve into the organized biophilic system we see today. If it’s too fast, the universe will be diffuse and likewise will not   be   able   to   produce   galactic   structure   and   biological   life.   Like   Goldilocks  and  her  porridge,  the  expansion  must  be  just  right  otherwise  life  couldn’t  exist  (at  least  under  modern  science’s  illusory  belief  in  evolution  as  the  mechanical  process  that  produces  life).  Too  boot,  the  amount  of  matter  in  the  explosion  must  also  be  just  right.  Too  much  and  the universe will not expand. Too little and no complex structures will be formed.  As  one  scientist  put  it,  it’s  like  trying  to  balance  a  pencil  on  its  point. As  one  can  see,  modern  cosmology  is  in  a  real  pickle.  But  it  didn’t  start  here.  When  Newton  discovered  gravity,  one  of  his  first  problems  was  having to deal with Copernicus’ limited universe. Newton realized that the very  gravity  he  discovered  would  eventually  pull  the  stars  into  one  massive ball. In order to compensate for this problem, Newton opted for an infinite  universe.  As  time  went  by,  science  realized  there  were  too  many  problems  with  an  infinite  universe,  so  Einstein  tried  to  compensate  for  gravity   by   introducing   an   opposing   force,   which   he   called   the   “cosmological constant.” As Misner, et al, describe it:

In  1915,  when  Einstein  developed  his  general  relativity  theory,  the  permanence  of  the  universe  was  a  fixed  item  of  belief  in  Western  philosophy.  “The  heavens  endure  from  everlasting  to  everlasting.”  Thus,  it  disturbed  Einstein  greatly  to  discover  that  his  geometrodynamic  law  G  =  8πT  predicts  a  non-permanent universe;  a  dynamic  universe;  a  universe  that  originated  in  a  “big-bang”   explosion,   or   will   be   destroyed   eventually   by   contraction   to   infinite   density,   or   both.   Faced   with   this   contradiction  between  his  theory  and  the  firm  philosophical  belief of the day, Einstein weakened; he modified his theory.

His new theory would reverse the effects of gravity and keep the universe from falling in on itself. The universe would remain static, not expanding or  contracting.  It  would  also  follow  Mach’s  principle,  wherein  space  was  defined  by  the  matter  within  it.  But  Wilhelm  de  Sitter  didn’t  follow  Mach’s rules and created a variation for Einstein’s cosmological constant. De  Sitter  ignored  all  the  matter  of  the  universe  and  only  concentrated  on  its  quantum  energy,  an  energy  that  would  be  enough  to  propel  the  expansion of the universe. So the choice was between Einstein’s static but matter-filled   universe   and   de   Sitter’s   expanding   but   matter-deficient   universe. 

Next,   Alexander   Friedmann   then   fiddled   with   Einstein’s   math   and   eliminated the cosmological constant and produced an expanding universe still under the constraints of General Relativity. But this required that he make  the  equations  produce  a  universe  whose  matter  was  spread  out  evenly  and  was  the  same  everywhere  (i.e.,  isotropic  and  homogeneous),  otherwise  known  as  the  “cosmological  principle.”  This  made  Arthur Eddington   backtrack   to   point   out   that,   even   with   the   cosmological   constant, an Einstein-type universe was not really static or balanced. Since gravity  and  Einstein’s  cosmological  constant  (Λ)  had  to  be  balanced  so  perfectly   (e.g.,   like   balancing   a   pencil   on   its   point),   even   minute   fluctuations   would   produce   a   runaway   expansion   or   an   unstoppable   contraction.  The  best  Friedmann  could  do  was  propose  a  universe  with  enough matter (what he called “the critical density”) that would allow the universe to expand for eternity but at an ever decreasing rate, even though this solution itself was counterintuitive. As NASA puts it:

Einstein    first    proposed    the    cosmological    constant...as    a    mathematical   fix   to   the   theory   of   general   relativity.   In   its   simplest form, general relativity predicted that the universe must either  expand  or  contract.  Einstein  thought  the  universe  was  static,  so  he  added  this  new  term  [(Λ)  lambda]  to  stop  the  expansion.  Friedmann,  a  Russian  mathematician,  realized  that  this was an unstable fix, like balancing a pencil on its point, and proposed an expanding universe model, now called the Big Bang theory.

In  retrospect,  when  Hubble  relieved  some  of  the  problem  by  interpreting  the redshift of galaxies as a sign that the universe was expanding, still, in order  to  have  the  matter  move  yet  remain  homogeneous  (as  required  by  Friedmann’s  equation),  the  value  of  its  rate  of  expansion  (H);  as  well  as  the  value  of  its  density  (Ω);  and  the  energy  to  propel  the  expansion  (Λ), had to fulfill the Goldilocks rule – it had to be just right or there would be no  universe.  Various  scientists  have  spent  their  entire  careers  trying  to  figure out the perfect combination to these three numbers, but to no avail. Again,  it  is  like  trying  to  balance  a  pencil  on  its  point.  This  is  what  happens  when  the  universe  is  made  to  start  from  a  big  bang  instead  of  creative fiat – the math never produces what we actually see. Postulating a big  bang  is  easy.  Making  it  work  with  all  the  other  laws  of  science  is  impossible.


The proponents of this convenient manipulation of data seem oblivious to their ploys. But George Ellis is not ashamed to admit that the whole thing is based on wishing or presuming that the Copernican Principle is true:

Additionally,   we   must   take   seriously   the   idea   that   the   acceleration apparently indicated by supernova data could be due to large scale inhomogeneity with no dark energy. Observational tests of the latter possibility are as important as pursuing the dark energy   (exotic   physics)   option   in   a   homogeneous   universe.   Theoretical  prejudices  as  to  the  universe’s  geometry,  and  our  place  in  it,  must  bow  to  such  observational  tests.  Precisely  because  of  the  foundational  nature  of  the  Copernican  Principle  for standard cosmology, we need to fully check this foundation. And  one  must  emphasize  here  that  standard  CMB  anisotropy  studies do not prove the Copernican principle: they assume it at the  start....The  further  issue  that  arises  is  that  while  some  form  of averaging process is in principle what one should do to arrive at  the  large  scale  geometry  of  the  universe  on  the  basis  of  observations,  in  practice  what  is  normally  done  is  the  inverse.  One  assumes  a  priori  a  FLRW model as  a  background  model,  and then uses some form of observationally-based fitting process to determine its basic parameters.

As  the  famous  20th-century  historian  Arthur C. Clarke once said: 

“The  lesson  to  be  learned  from  these  examples  is  one  that  can  never be repeated too often, and is one that is seldom understood by   laymen   –   who   have   an   almost   superstitious   awe   of   mathematics.   But   mathematics   is   only   a   tool,   though   an   immensely powerful one. No equations, however impressive and complex,  can  arrive  at  the  truth  if  the  initial  assumptions  are  incorrect.  It  is  really  quite  amazing  by  what  margins  competent  but  conservative  scientists  and  engineers  can  miss  the  mark,  when  they  start  with  the  preconceived  idea  that  what  they  are  investigating  is  impossible.  When  this  happens,  the  most  well-informed men become blinded by their prejudices and are unable to  see  what  lies  directly  ahead  of  them.  What  is  even  more  incredible,   they   refuse   to   learn   from   experience;   they   will   continue to make the same mistake over and over again. Some of my best friends are astronomers, and I am sorry to keep throwing stones at them – but they do seem to have an appalling record as prophets.”

By now even you must acknowledge that manned rockets cannot go to the moon, visit the place and safely return to earth.

I am following this with much pleasure.... it seems this place is loaded with rocket scientists, top photographers and many many top hotshots in their respective field of science.
If only mister McGravity Neil deGrasse Tyson would join the discussion in this upper echelon  of online expertise.
I guess he feels more comfertable among his own people at a latenight show.... ::)
At least we still have the rocket scientist, top photographer, historian, cartographer, scientist of light and former electricien .... the one and only Jac...Rabinoz ;D
So much credentials will even impress Neil deGrasse Tyson..... and for me it’s also a humbling experience.

Everything is Interconnected & Inseparable, this especially applies to modern cosmology and astrophysics.

No  one  at  the  present  time  has  any  understanding  of  where  this  ‘energy of nothing’ comes from....If we take the latest theory of subatomic  particles  and  try  to  compute  the  value  of  this  dark  energy, we find a number that is off by 10^120. Michio Kaku

So, here  is  an  even  bigger  problem.  Since  Big  Bang  cosmologists  believe  space  contains  10^120  more  energy  than  what  we  have  detected;  and  since  Einstein’s  General  Theory  of  Relativity  requires  that  all  forms  of  energy  (even  the  10^120)  function  as  a  source  of  gravity;  and  since  Einstein’s  equations  require  that  the  “curvature”  of  the  universe  depends  on  its  energy  content,  then,  since  the  energy  content  is  10^120  more  than  what  Einstein proposed, the whole universe should presently be curled up into a space smaller than the dot on this i. Obviously it isn’t. As we can see, the Big Bang universe simply does not work under present empirical evidence.

Noted  physicist  Paul  Steinhardt  of  Princeton  has  gone  on  record  against  the  present  Big  Bang  theory.  He  opts  for  what  can  best  be  called  the  Big  Brane theory. In a recent lecture, Steinhardt says the following of the Big Bang: 

So,  the  first  point  I  want  to  make  about  the  Big  Bang  model  is  that  the  Big  Bang  model  of  2011...that  model  I  just  described,  definitely fails....We have to fix the Big Bang model, we have to add things to it to make it work.

Indeed,  things  like  Inflation,  Dark  Matter,  Dark  Energy,  Lambda  values  and  Hubble  “constants”  of  which  the  only  thing  constant  is  that  they  are  constantly  being  changed  to  accommodate  the  next  fudge  factor  that  will  prop  up  the  Big  Bang.  Along  these  lines,  Richard  Lieu  submitted  a  scathing critique of the ΛCDM [Big Bang] model in a 2007 paper:

...Cosmology   is   not   even   astrophysics:   all   the   principal   assumptions  in  this  field  are  unverified  (or  unverifiable)  in  the  laboratory,  and  researches  are  quite  comfortable  with  inventing  unknowns  to  explain  the  unknown.  How  then  could,  after  fifty  years of failed attempts in finding dark matter, the fields of dark matter and now, dark energy have become such lofty priorities in astronomy  funding,  to  the  detriment  of  all  other  branches  of  astronomy?...ΛCDM   cosmology   has   been   propped   by   a   paralyzing   amount   of   propaganda   which   suppress   counter   evidence and subdue competing models....I believe astronomy is no longer heading towards a healthy future....Charging under the banner of Einstein’s extreme eminence and his forbidding theory of  General  Relativity,  have  cosmologists  been  over-exercising  our  privileges?...Could  this  be  a  sign  of  a  person  (or  camp  of  people in prestigious institutes) who become angry because they are embarrassed?

As it was for Einstein in 1905 when he invented Special Relativity, any ad hoc  solution  other  than  an  Earth  in  the  center  of  the  universe  would  be  acceptable for modern man. The reason was plain. As Hubble put it in his book: “Such a favored position, of course, is intolerable.”

Essentially,  spatial  curvature  and  homogeneity  are  modern  cosmology’s  manufactured   but   necessary   ingredients   to   maintain   the   Copernican   Principle, the  presuppositional  belief  that  the  Earth  is  not  special  and  inhabits  no  special  place  in  the  universe.  Spatial  curvature  removes  the  Earth from the center of a three-dimensional Euclidean universe and puts it on  the  surface  of  a  two-dimensional  hyperspace.

As  noted  in  his  book,  Hubble  also  wanted  a  homogeneous  universe.  This  means  that  as  one  looks  into  the  universe,  everything  will  appear  to  be  precisely  the  same,  analogous  to  homogenized  milk  that  has  no  cream  on  top   and   no   lumps   in   the   middle.   This   is   otherwise   known   as   the   Cosmological  Principle,  which  then  leads  to  the  conclusion  that  the  universe has no distinguished place, and thus no center and no motionless celestial  body  to  occupy  a  center.  It  would  be  the  same  as  if  one  were  in the desert and looked north, east, south and west and saw the same sand in each direction with no distinguishing features.

After  Einstein  and  Hubble  presented  the  foundation  for  cosmology,  all  subsequent  theories  had  to  be  based  on  a  homogeneous  and  spatially  curved  universe, otherwise  it  would  necessarily  be  geocentric.  As  noted,  the amount of curvature needed was calculated by using Einstein’s famous tensor equation, G = 8πΤ and G –λ = 8πΤ.

The homogeneity that was needed to make Einstein and Hubble’s universe feasible   was   calculated   by   a   Russian   physicist   named      Alexander Friedmann who adjusted Einstein’s equations for this very purpose.

A few decades later, Stephen Hawking admitted the real motivation behind Friedmann’s   attempt   to   make   the   universe   homogeneous.   As   was   becoming common in modern cosmology, the motivation was to eliminate a  center,  and  more  specifically,  Earth’s  possible  occupation  of  the  centerHawking writes in A Brief History of Time:

There  is,  however,  an  alternate  explanation  [to  a  central  Earth]:  the universe might look the same in every direction as seen from any  other  galaxy,  too.  This,  as  we  have  seen,  was  Friedmann’s  second  assumption.  We  have  no  scientific  evidence  for,  or  against,  this  assumption.  We  believe  it  only  on  grounds  of  modesty: it would be most remarkable if the universe looked the same in every direction around us, but not around other points in the universe.

So we see that the men of Hubble and Hawking’s generation choose their cosmological  model  based  not  so  much  on  science  (since  the  science  is  ambiguous)  but  on  a  commitment  to  a  universe  that  best  fits  their  philosophy. One wonders, then, whether Hawking’s claim of “modesty” in deciding  against  a  central  Earth  is  actually  pride  in  disguise,  especially  since he has since become known for proposing the universe did not need a God to begin it or continue it. According to Hawking, who is an avowed atheist, the universe could start all by itself, from nothing.

It may be boldly asked where can the man be found, possessing the extraordinary gifts of Newton, who could suffer himself to be deluded by such a hocus-pocus, if he had not in the first instance willfully deceived himself; Only those who know the strength of self-deception, and the extent to which it sometimes trenches on dishonesty, are in a condition to explain the conduct of Newton and of Newton’s school. To support his unnatural theory Newton heaps fiction upon fiction, seeking to dazzle where he cannot convince. In whatever way or manner may have occurred this business, I must still say that I curse this modern history theory of Cosmology, and hope that perchance there may appear, in due time, some young scientists of genius, who will pick up courage enough to upset this universally disseminated DELIRIUM OF LUNATICS. ~ Goethe (August 28, 1749 – March 22, 1832)

Space myths and misconceptions like "Rockets can fly in a vacuum" are almost tantamount to an assertion "Something can come out of Nothing!"
You mean facts like rockets can fly in a vacuum, a fact that you have been avoiding throughout this thread, with you needing to avoid even simple questions.

That is quite different to the ridiculous religious idea of a god creating something from nothing, or for that highly complex god to just exist without cause.

Now once again, NOTHING in your post has anything at all to do with if rockets can or cannot fly in a vacuum. Your posting shows that you have lost, you know you have lost, you know your lies have been exposed, and now you are trying to hide it.

If you want any sane person to take you seriously you will need to deal with the topic at hand before moving on.

Again answer the question:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Arthur C Clarke is a preeminent science writer, science fiction writer and inventor of the 20th Century. He wasn't a historian but a futureologist, long before the field was even invented.

The joke, he popularised the idea of geostationary orbits for communication satellites and calculated the orbit itself, indeed the geostationary orbit is called the Clarke Belt.

I think if the man who calculated the orbital mechanics required to travel to Saturn in the 60's, knew he was being discussed in the same breath as FE theory would be both literally and figuratively spinning in his grave.

Is there a force between a rocket and its exhaust?

Or rocket accelerates exhaust without a force? :)

Not in the slightest!

The question as to whether or not rockets can fly in a vacuum is simply a physics problem of the here and now and is a local issue.

Modern cosmology is largely trying to determine "origins" from observations of the extremely (tens of millions of light years) distant and hence very old Universe.

Astrophysics is defined as "the branch of astronomy concerned with the physical nature of stars and other celestial bodies, and the application of the laws and theories of physics to the interpretation of astronomical observations."

So obviously neither Modern cosmology nor Astrophysics are relevant to the question of whether or not rockets can fly in a vacuum

Michio Kaku is simply pointing that while neither Quantum Mechanics nor General Relativity can be faulted in their own "domains"
 they cannot yet be combined into a "Theory of Everything".

That has nothing to do with the topic of "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum"!
Stop dragging in irrelevant material into your own topic on "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum"!

If you want discussions on Modern cosmology, Astrophysics or Geocentric Universe vs Heliocentric Solar System make suitable threads.

There is no need to resort to rocket experiments in vacuum, it has already been done on a grand scale.

If gas had an effect on objects in a vacuum we would expect to find an example in nature.

"Saturn's moon Enceladus, for example, shoots a jet of water ice 500 KM into space. The diameter of the moon itself is only 500 KM. Does this jet have any effect? No. The jet as tall as the moon is wide goes harmlessly off into space."

The jets were still tightly focused at an altitude of 15 km above the surface, suggesting they were moving faster than 2100 km per hour. Such high speeds imply that the jets are fed by pressurised water vapour that shoots through narrow openings – which act like rocket nozzles – in the moon’s icy surface.

You mean with the multitude of rockets that have gone to space?

If gas had an effect on objects in a vacuum we would expect to find an example in nature.
Try and find an example which even comes close to a rocket.

But the rest of your post seems unconnected as it is referring to water ice, not gas.

The diameter of the moon itself is only 500 KM
You mean is a massive 500 km, nothing like a rocket.
So useless as a comparison to rockets.

moving faster than 2100 km per hour
i.e. roughly 580 m/s, nothing like the multi-km/s of rocket exhaust.
So again useless as a comparison to rockets.

Water vapor is gas.


https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16151-supersonic-water-jets-shoot-from-saturn-moon/

The jets were still tightly focused at an altitude of 15 km above the surface, suggesting they were moving faster than 2100 km per hour. Such high speeds imply that the jets are fed by pressurised water vapour that shoots through narrow openings – which act like rocket nozzles – in the moon’s icy surface.


Same principle applies as for rockets in a vacuum, yet no modification of the orbit is being observed.

Let us remember that there is a very delicate balance between the tidal forces attributed to Saturn and its moons (official astronomical data):

Since the water vapor geysers of Enceladus have NO EFFECT whatsoever on the orbit of the satellite (ejected on such a huge scale of hundreds of kilometers), we can safely infer that rockets do not and cannot function in vacuum, same principle applies (not the speed of the gas itself).

Yes, but you said:
"Saturn's moon Enceladus, for example, shoots a jet of water ice 500 KM into space
Ice is not gas.

Same principle applies as for rockets in a vacuum, yet no modification of the orbit is being observed.
Only if you have a massive rocket with basically no exhaust.
Just how much force would you expect from these jets?
Just how much acceleration would that cause the moon?

You have a massive object, ejecting a comparably tiny amount of matter at a quite slow speed.
As such you would not expect any significant effect.

Meanwhile, with a rocket you have a large object, ejecting a very significant amount of matter at a very high speed.

Again, if you want to use these jets to dismiss rockets working in a vacuum, go do the math, with valid references.
Until you do, these jets have no bearing on if rockets can work in space.

Proportionally the area of exhaust is the same for both objects.

It is not only a single geyser, but huge number of geysers which emit gas continuously, distributed over a distance (and area) which encompasses at least half of the circumference of Enceladus.

Same proportions, and of course same principle.

"At these warm temperatures, liquid water, ice and water vapor mingle. The vapor escapes to the vacuum of space through cracks in Enceladus' ice crust. When the gas expands, it cools and the ice grains that make up the visible part of the plumes condense from the vapor. Vapor in the plumes is clocked at roughly the same speed as a supersonic jet, about 300 to 500 meters per second, or about 650 to 1,100 miles per hour. However, most of the condensed ice particles fail to reach Enceladus' escape velocity of 240 meters per second (536 miles per hour).

Pinball-like physics account for the slow speed of the particles. Shooting up through crooked cracks in the ice, the particles ricochet off the walls, losing speed, while the water vapor moves unimpeded up the crevasse. The vapor reboosts the frozen particles as they pinball off the walls, carrying them upward. Reaching nozzle-like openings at the surface, the faster-moving water vapor shoots high above Enceladus, becoming entrapped in Saturn's magnetosphere. Most of the particles, which have lost energy through collisions in transit, fail to achieve escape velocity and fall back to Enceladus' surface. Only about 10 percent escape Enceladus and form Saturn's E-ring. "

So, if Enceladus' escape velocity is 240 meters per second, and 2100 km/h = 583 meters per second, then how come that most of the condensed ice particles fail to reach Enceladus' escape velocity of 240 meters per second???

Let's compare it with CMEs velocities :

Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are large expulsions of plasma and magnetic field from the Sun’s corona. They can eject billions of tons of coronal material and carry an embedded magnetic field (frozen in flux) that is stronger than the background solar wind interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) strength. CMEs travel outward from the Sun at speeds ranging from slower than 250 kilometers per second (km/s) to as fast as near 3000 km/s....

Sure, you haven't done your homework on the subject.

Your reference is a simple OPINION, not a scientific peer-reviewed statement.

Here is a PEER-REVIEWED paper:

https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1029/2006JA012086

The velocity required to eject a water molecule upward from the surface of Enceladus to a distance of 1000 km is ≳ 225 m/s, slightly less than the escape velocity of 250 m/s. It seems probable, therefore, that a significant fraction of water in the plume escapes entirely from Enceladus.

And what the relevance of that? The water vapour has the same mass as the water.

Meanwhile, with a rocket you have a large object, ejecting a very significant amount of matter at a very high speed.

Not in the slightest! The effect on the main object, Encaladus or a rocket, is the momentum of the mass ejected, its mass x its velocity.

Quote from: sandokhan

Maybe the same principle but where are your values for the mass of ejecta, velocity of ejects and the mass of Enceladus?

Look at the exhaust mass flow from a typical modern rocket:
The SpaceX Falcon 9 has a launch mass of almost 550,000 kg.
The first stage's 9 Merlin 1D engines burn for 162 sec and can produce up to 7,607 kN (over 775,000 kg.force).
The first stage fuel load is about 380,000 kg so it burns an average of about 2350 kg/sec which is ejected at about 3 km/sec!
So just the first stage fuel burnt is almost 70% of the whole launch mass and the second stage fuel is still to be burnt.

So that SpaceX Falcon 9 ejects almost 70% of the whole launch mass at about 3 km/sec
while Enceladus ejects a minute fraction of its mass which probably falls back onto Enceladus - so there is simply no comparison.

Quote from: sandokhan

You have no way to demonstrate that at all!

No, now how about you address the issues raised rather than just repeating the same nonsense?

Notice how that is nothing that I asked for? (and it is just another baseless claim from you, especially as earlier in this thread an exhaust trail many times the size of the rocket emitting it was shown, showing it isn't the same area).

It is not only a single geyser, but huge number of geysers which emit gas continuously
So nothing like a rocket which goes through its entire fuel supply in a matter of minutes, with that entire fuel supply being the majority of the mass.
So thanks for once again showing it is nothing like a rocket.

Again, if you want to claim it should produce a similar effect tell us the mass of the planet, the mass flow rate of the ejected matter, the velocity of the ejected matter, and from that the expected force, and from that the expected acceleration.
Until you do so, you are just spouting garbage as you have done absolutely nothing to show that we are not observing what we would expect.

Yes, as already pointed out, much slower than rocket exhaust, as such the comparison is useless.

Now how about you try answering the question that you have been avoiding for so long?
Until you answer it, the only rational conclusion is that rockets do work in a vacuum.

What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Now, here is another reference on the speed of the water vapor molecules:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5610430/

The CO2 E3 and E5 data show an approximate inverse square decay of the plume density with distance from the south polar terrain, which is consistent with collisionless vapor expansion from Enceladus well in excess of the 240 m/s escape speed.

The expression assumes radial expansion of the gas from the surface sources at constant speed, neglecting gravity since the mean molecular speed in the jets significantly exceeds (by at least a factor two) the 240 m/s Enceladus escape speed.

And just more lies from you.
How about you try and defend your prior claims rather than running away from them and spouting more lies?

Again, if you want your claims to be taken seriously, you need to show it is a valid comparison.
That means the thrust to mass ratio needs to be comparable.
Like I said before, tell us the mass of the planet, the mass flow rate of the ejected matter, the velocity of the ejected matter, and from that the expected force, and from that the expected acceleration.

Or how about I try doing it for you?

Lets just take a simple route and assume the moon is made entirely of water, at a constant density of 1000 kg/m^3 (it isn't, it is more dense than that).
This along with the diameter of ~ 500 km, gives a radius of 250 000 m, and thus a volume of ~6.5e+16 m^3, gives a mass of 6.5e+19 kg.

Now, for a simple direct comparison to a rocket like the Falcon 9 Rab has provided, that would mean you need to have a mass flow rate of the exhaust of roughly 2.8e+17 kg/s, which travels at roughly 3 km/s, and doesn't have significant gravitational interaction.
But you don't.
Instead, according to your paper, you get a mass flow rate of less than 1000 kg/s, and instead it is a much lower velocity of 2100 km/hr or ~583 m/s.
That gives a PATHETIC force of 583 kN.
That is less than the Falcon 9.

So all these jets show is that you can't use a rocket that is weaker than the Falcon 9 to move an ENTIRE MASSIVE MOON!

But lets continue shall we?
Well, we have a force of 583 kN, acting on a body with a mass of 6.5 Zg.
That gives an acceleration of ~9 fm/s.
So basically nothing.

So just why would any sane person expect any significant change in the trajectory of the moon from this jet?

while Enceladus ejects a minute fraction of its mass which probably falls back onto Enceladus - so there is simply no comparison.

It cannot fall back, read the references.

The orbital stability of Enceladus is a hotly debated topic, now scientists realize that the original equations and results of the orbital eccentricity stability are wrong:

https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/80f7/db79f1418a405c5a417ff1ab5427653be7dd.pdf

It is very difficult to obtain estimates such as mass-flow rates given the currently available data:

http://seismo.berkeley.edu/~manga/goldsteinetal2018.pdf

What we have is a similar mechanism to that of a rocket nozzle: gas being ejected at a certain speed into the vacuum of space, and yet nothing happens to the orbital stability of Enceladus.


What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

What ?!

Please explain how the subsurface global ocean of Enceladus stays glued next to the outer surface of a sphere.


Instead, according to your paper, you get a mass flow rate of less than 1000 kg/s

But they have to, since the geysers are distributed over a huge area, encompassing an entire hemisphere.

The gas jets provide no significant force to the moon.

But they have to, since the geysers are distributed over a huge area, encompassing an entire hemisphere.

Imagine this: a 500 km rocket (in length) with full-blown exhaust in the form of water vapor.

And nothing happens?

Yeah but the papers had very little to do with your subject and many of your links actually disprove flat earth... well played.

Still to move an object you need to talk about force not speed. Nobody is disputing that water vapour is being jettisoned, but what is the force of the jet, can it move a moon?

So you cannot explain the presence of a global subsurface ocean on Enceladus using your precious concept of gravity.

This says everything about your failed beliefs in heliocentrism.

M. Selbrede: George Galeczki (in “Mach’s Principle and the True Continuum,” Mach’s Principle and the Origin of Inertia, ed. Sachs & Roy, Apeiron Press 2003, p. 136) states, “Indeed, from the astronomical evidence within the solar system, Laplace concluded that the speed of propagation of gravity has to be at least 10^8c. This limit has been pushed to 10^10c in the last years by Van Flandern, thus strongly suggesting instantaneous propagation of gravity.” Geocentrists are hardly alone in asserting the speed of gravity is faster than the speed of light. Some geocentrists derive the speed of gravity from the Planck Density  (by  calculating  the  speed  of  sound  through  an  object  bearing  that  density),  and  some geocentrists posit a property analogous to an optical refractive index to the “empty” space bearing that density (geocentrists are not alone in holding to that idea either, were one to study the refereed literature on that point).

R. Sungenis: Lastly, I think it is rather interesting that Relativists, on the one hand, claim that light is limited to 186,000 mps in Special Relativity, but admit that Special Relativity does not incorporate gravity or inertial forces. On the other hand, they claim gravity is limited to the speed of light because Special Relativity says nothing can go faster than light. But if Special Relativity has nothing to do with gravity, then how can Special Relativity claim that gravity’s speed is limited to light speed?  Moreover, in General Relativity, light, and we presume gravity, is not limited to 186,000 mps, and that is because General Relativity deals with frames that include gravity and inertial forces. But if gravity itself is a non‐inertial frame, then how can it be limited to 186,000 mps by Special Relativity which only deals with inertial frames? This shows that the two theories of Relativity contradict themselves.

Quote from: cikljamas
The question is how did the Cassini orbiter get to Saturn.
NASA is desperate...They released new video : "Astronaut walks in Space with a GoPro for 5 hours" ... 5 hours.... During these 5 long GoPro hours not a single satellite (allegedly, there are 4 987 satellites whizzing around above our heads every single day) has been caught by the lens of astronut's GoPro camera, not a single airplane exhaust trail has entered in the lens of our actor's GoPro camera...
Why should there be? How close would one of those satellites have to be for GoPro camera to see it? Certainly not further than 3 km or so!

How far away is that "airplane exhaust trail"? At least 400 km away! Do you sums!

IN ADDITION :

<< I'll ignore that bit of meaningless drivel >>

Astronaut walks in Space with a GoPro for 5 hours :

OK, YOU prove that not "not a single satellite" was captured when it might be a speck a few pixels wide passing the field in a fraction of a second!

Little man Rabinoz and JackBlack never even tried to explain this obvious NASA FAKERY (blatant inconsistency) :

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING AS FAKE AS THIS - VIDEO :
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7g9vm0
What's to explain in that trashy video?

The only inconsistency there is the stupid commentator's total misunderstanding the differences in direction and relative motion make to the apparent movement of the earth.

With the satellite moving at 27,580 km/h or so the apparent motion seen is dominated by that of the satellite and will depend on where the camera is pointing!!

Look, Mr Cikljamas, NASA has a combined intelligence 1000 times yours! If they were trying to hide anything they would hide it in a way that YOU would never detect it!

The simple fact that they allow video transmission glitches and compression artefacts to be shown is proof in itself that they are not hiding anything.
And that goes for ALL the lunar mission photos too - they knew far more than you do about things like the thermosphere, the Van Allen Belt radiation and conditions on the moon that you ever will.

They don't have to use "PhotoShopped" images.
Apparently YOU do because you have posted at least one video that tries to get away with "PhotoShopped" images to show that NASA uses "PhotoShopped" images.

No I meant the one where you tried to prove that water was being ejected, not disputed, by providing a paper on the orbital mechanics of the last Cassini flyby, something you dont believe happened.

As to this paper did you read it? the actual quote from YOUR link is

Quote
The total plume intensity, between 100 and 1000 kg/s, is also stochastically variable between Cassini flybys in UVIS and INMS observations, and estimates of the source rate are dependent (by up to ∼30%) on the assumed temperature and speed of the high Mach emission, as determined by the roles of adiabatic and nonadiabatic fluid expansion in accelerating the gas.

My figure is meaningless?? I dont understand Im asking you to provide the force generated by the plume that would be sufficient to move a small moon.

Easily!
The mass off Enceladus is about 1.08 ×1020 kg.

So even if 1.5 x 105 kg were ejected per DAY and none was returned it would last far longer than the estimated age of the solar system.

That 1.5 x 105 kg is only 1/720,000,000,000,000 of the mass of Enceladus.
After 4.571 billion years (the estimated age of the solar system) only 0.23% of the mass of Enceladus would have been ejected!

No one knows the TRUE MASS of Enceladus until the size/depth of the subsurface ocean is estimated with accuracy.

Where does this water come from?

Your estimates are based on a rocky core. However, now scientists are saying that the core of Enceladus is made up of sand; others even suggest it is pure ice. The latest figure is a core with at least 30% water content.

Therefore that estimate is pure nonsense: try again using a core of ice, you will get a much lower figure for the overall mass.

There could also be huge cavities inside the core, thereby lowering even further the figure for the total mass.

Even if it couldn't move a moon out of it's orbit around Saturn, it would certainly cause very substantial effect to the rate (speed) of it's rotation :

There is no appreciable change in the relative rotation between space and Earth. It is always 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds.
This is precisely why the geocentric system is more stable for us earthlings, whereas [color=purple]Venus has changed its rotation by 6 minutes over the years it has been studied[/color].

THE QUESTION No 1 :

Geokinetics is not the best way to understand the physics. In fact, the geocentric
system makes more sense. For example, in the geokinetic system, the Earth has to rotate
exactly 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds to keep sidereal time. How can it do so when so
many  inertial  forces  (e.g., earthquakes,  tsunamis,  volcanoes, etc.) are  impeding  its  rotation?

Venus, which does rotate, has slowed its rate by 6 minutes in the last few years. 
Likewise,  in  the geokinetic system, the Earth has  to revolve around the sun exactly  in 365.25
days. How does it do so in the face of the inertial forces it undergoes internally, as well as the
cosmic forces and planetary perturbations it incurs externally?


Geocentrism has a much better explanation. The sidereal rate can stay exactly as it is
due to the tremendous momentum that a massive rotating universe will produce. Like a giant  flywheel,
the universe keeps  turning at the same rate year after year, and nothing is able to slow it down.
(Later we will address the claims that the Earth has slowed its rotation).

As for Newton and Einstein, geocentrism can use both a rotating Earth in a fixed universe
or a fixed Earth in a rotating universe, if desired, since all we need to do is invert the equations, as Einstein himself did.

In March 2007, it was found that the variation of radio emissions from the planet did not match Saturn's rotation rate. This variance may be caused by geyser activity on Saturn's moon Enceladus. The water vapor emitted into Saturn's orbit by this activity becomes charged and creates a drag upon Saturn's magnetic field, slowing its rotation slightly relative to the rotation of the planet.

THE QUESTION No 2 :

If variations in Saturn's rotation rate can be assigned (at least theoretically) to geyser activity of Enceladus, what consequence should we expect (from the same cause - geyser activity) to the rate of rotation of Enceladus itself??? Extreme consequences???

Wiki quote :

Enceladus is tidally locked with Saturn, keeping the same face toward the planet. It completes one orbit every 32.9 hours within the densest part of Saturn's E Ring.

THE QUESTION No 3 :

If variations in Saturn's rotation rate can be assigned (at least theoretically) to geyser activity of Enceladus, and if it is more than reasonably to assume that geyser activity would have extreme consequences to the rate of rotation of Enceladus itself, isn't it more than reasonably to assume that Enceladus in these circumstances couldn't remain tidally locked with Saturn due to it's changed rate of rotation?

As I noted earlier, there is no appreciable change in the relative rotation between
space and Earth.  It  is always 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds. This is precisely why the
geocentric system is more stable for us earthlings, whereas Venus has changed its rotation by
6 minutes over the years it has been studied.
   
Invariably,  when  major  earthquakes  or  tsunamis  occur  we  are  inundated  with  newspaper
articles declaring that the Earth, as a result of the force coming from these catastrophes, was
slowed  in  its  rotation  rate  and/or  its  axis moved.  The  rotation rate is said to decrease by
microseconds and the axial tilt by inches. The 2011 tsunami that hit Japan produced numerous
articles. This one is from the New York Times:
 
The magnitude-8.9 earthquake  that struck northern  Japan on Friday not only violently shook
the ground and generated a devastating tsunami, it also moved the coastline and changed the
balance of the planet.

...Meanwhile,  NASA  scientists  calculated  that  the  redistribution  of mass  by  the  earthquake
might have shortened the day by a couple of millionths of a second and tilted the Earth’s axis
slightly. On a  larger  scale,  the unbuckling and  shifting moved  the planet’s mass, on average,
closer to its center, and just as a figure skater who spins faster when drawing the arms closer,
the Earth’s rotation speeds up.

Richard S. Gross, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, calculated that the length of the day
was shortened by 1.8 millionths of a second.

The earthquake  also  shifted  the  so-called  figure  axis of  the  Earth, which is the axis that the
Earth’s mass is balanced around. Dr. Gross said his calculations indicated a shift of 6.5 inches in
where the figure axis intersects the surface of the planet. That figure axis is near, but does not
quite align with, the rotational axis that the Earth spins around.
 
Earlier  great  earthquakes  also  changed  the  axis  and  shortened  the  day.  The magnitude-8.8
earthquake in Chile last year shortened the day by 1.26 millionths of a second and moved the
axis by about  three  inches, while  the Sumatra earthquake  in 2004  shortened  the day by 6.8
millionths of a second, Dr. Gross said.

From the Jet Propulsion Laboratory report, Gross and Chao added more:

Dr. Richard Gross of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., and Dr. Benjamin Fong
Chao, of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., said all earthquakes have some
affect on Earth’s rotation. It’s just they are usually barely noticeable.
 
“Any worldly event that involves the movement of mass affects the  Earth’s  rotation,  from
seasonal  weather  down  to  driving  a  car,”  Chao  said.  Gross  and  Chao  have  been  routinely
calculating earthquakes’ effects  in changing the Earth’s rotation  in both  length-of-day as well
as changes in Earth’s gravitational field. They also study changes in polar motion that is shifting
the North Pole. The “mean North pole” was shifted by about 2.5  centimeters  (1  inch)  in  the
direction of 145 degrees East Longitude. This shift east is continuing a long-term seismic trend
identified in previous studies.

All  of  this  sounds  very  technical  and  convincing,  but we  shall  go  through  it  line  by  line  to
determine  its  validity.  First,  if we  add  up  all  the  earthquakes  occurring  on  an  annual  basis,
there  are  on  average  1,450,000  per  year.  About  90%  are  in  the  2 – 2.9 Rictor scale range;
about 9% in the 3 to 3.9 range; and the rest between the 4 to 9.

 Let’s say for the sake of argument about 25,000 significant earthquakes occur per year that affect
the Earth’s rotation and figure axis the way Dr. Gross claims. Let’s say we take the estimates back
10,000 years to 8000 BC.  That means 250 million noticeable earthquakes occurred  since 8000 BC.

Let’s also assume,  based  on  present  data,  that  Earth’s  rotation  changes  by 0.5 microseconds for
significant earthquakes. This means the Earth would have changed its rotation by 125 seconds
or  2.08 minutes  since  8000  BC.  If we  go  beyond  8000  BC  to  108,000  BC, we  now  have  the
rotation  of  the  Earth  decreased  by  20.8 minutes, which  yields  a  rotation  of  23  hours,  36.2
minutes.  If we use 1 million years,  it  lessens the rotation by about 200 minutes.  If 10 million:
2000  minutes.  If  100  million:  20,000  minutes.  If  200  million,  then  40,000  minutes,  which
means  the  Earth  would  have  been  rotating  in  about  12  hours.  Anything  beyond  86,400
minutes, the Earth will rotate once every second or less. If we use 4.5 billion years  (which  is
the  time modern science  says  the Earth has been  in existence),  the Earth would be spinning
about 10 times every second.

The observed erupted grains can be separated into three regimes based on their ejected velocity. The slowest group rises out of vents and falls out of the plume in close proximity to the tiger stripes. These particles tend to be large (Degruyter and Manga, 2011). Another, faster-moving group, distributes itself broadly over the surface (Kempf et al., 2010). A third group has velocities greater than the escape speed of Enceladus and leaves the satellite altogether.

The gas jets provide no significant force to the moon.

But they have to, since the geysers are distributed over a huge area, encompassing an entire hemisphere.

Imagine this: a 500 km rocket (in length) with full-blown exhaust in the form of water vapor.

And nothing happens?

Who are you kidding?



Just a quick reminder you are arguing that there is indeed no affect on the moon, to prove that rockets dont work in a vacuum :)

These terms, the electromagnetic potential, have to be included in the relativity equations, since Einstein's original equations do not have a bounded dynamic solution (i.e., can only be applied to static situations).

In either case, Enceladus is clearly implicated as a significant, if not dominant, source of Saturn's magnetospheric plasma.

Material blasted into space by Enceladus feeds Saturn’s giant E ring and is a major source of material (plasma) fueling Saturn’s magnetosphere.

You haven't done your homework on the Aurora Borealis.

The Aurora Borealis cannot be explained by an external stream of plasma/ions that are injected into the Earth's magnetic field.

NASA Scientists Agree — Polar Ion Fountains Fill the Earth's Magnetosphere

http://www.ourhollowearth.com/Earth_weaves_its_own_invisible_cloak.pdf

"The perception started to change in the mid-1980s following the Aug. 3, 1981, launch of two Dynamics Explorer satellites designed to study the magnetosphere near the Earth. DE-1 carried Chappell's Retarding Ion Mass Spectrometer (RIMS), designed to measure the population of the plasmasphere, a torus or donut of low-energy in the inner magnetosphere.

To Chappell's surprise, the real find was around the north pole where RIMS measured gases flowing upward from the ionosphere into space."


Here is a PEER-REVIEWED paper:

https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1029/2006JA012086

The velocity required to eject a water molecule upward from the surface of Enceladus to a distance of 1000 km is ≳ 225 m/s, slightly less than the escape velocity of 250 m/s. It seems probable, therefore, that a significant fraction of water in the plume escapes entirely from Enceladus.

Now, here is another reference on the speed of the water vapor molecules:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5610430/

The CO2 E3 and E5 data show an approximate inverse square decay of the plume density with distance from the south polar terrain, which is consistent with collisionless vapor expansion from Enceladus well in excess of the 240 m/s escape speed.

The expression assumes radial expansion of the gas from the surface sources at constant speed, neglecting gravity since the mean molecular speed in the jets significantly exceeds (by at least a factor two) the 240 m/s Enceladus escape speed.

Who is talking about the Aurora Borealis?

You are quite slippery but again I stress you provided the link with the peer reviewed paper to prove the point that mass was being ejected by Enceladus. This proof did this by demonstrating aurorele on the pole of saturn wrapped around the sphere.

I was pointing out that again your evidence provided was completely contradictory to your stance earlier in the thread that all celestial bodies were discs

As I said from the start, Enceladus has huge cavities inside, a fact corroborated by the research done at the University of Nantes.

https://scitechdaily.com/new-research-into-saturns-geologically-active-moon-enceladus/

Choblet and co-authors found that a loose, rocky core with 20 to 30 percent empty space would do the trick.

According to these first estimates, Enceladus' cavities amount to a third of its total volume.

This, coupled with the fact that all of the geyser jets escape to outer space, means that the thrust provided by the plume does not interact with the vacuum.

You have the mass and acceleration of the plume so the force in KN =

Its then basic algebra to have some discussion on Enceladus, you have already supplied a peer reviewed paper with its mass included.

At the very least we could compare the force of the plume to say a rocket and get back to the topic

This a really low quality manipulation. Almost everything about Enceladus before Voyager missions was a wild guess.
It would be fair to include a comment from George Dyson about this note:
Quote
Note that the .618 density for Enceladus was not a transcription or arithmetic error, it is due to the mass and radius of the outer planet satellites being known only approximately at that time. (I believe Thomas “Tommy” Gold was brought in as a consultant on the question of selecting landing sites.) These calculations were made to determine the best destination both in terms of an optimum velocity match and highest probability of being able to obtain water ice or hydrocarbons on the surface to replenish the vehicle’s propellant mass.

But they have to, since the geysers are distributed over a huge area, encompassing an entire hemisphere.
No, they don't have to as the product of the mass flow rate and the velocity of it is tiny compared to the moon.

Again, if you wish to disagree, DO THE MATH!
Show the force is significant.
Tell us the mass of the planet, the mass flow rate of the ejected matter, the velocity of the ejected matter, and from that the expected force, and from that the expected acceleration.

Until you do that you have nothing.
I have already done that and demonstrated the force is insignificant.

Stop running away from the issue.

If you want to reject my numbers, from your own paper (there was only one in the post I directly responded to, so it is quite clear which one), then provide your own, with a valid reference.

Are you referring to this?
Plume intensity figure (emission strength): 1000kg/s.
Then, your figure is MEANINGLESS unless we have the TOTAL MASS being ejected.
And what does it say?
Quote
The total plume intensity, between 100 and 1000 kg/s, is also stochastically variable
That sure sounds like it is talking about a TOTAL!
So no, my figure is not meaningless.

I estimate this mass to be at least 1.5 x 105 kg
Your estimate is worthless.
You have provided absolutely nothing to substantiate it.
But even with that large increase, it is still basically NOTHING!.
To express it in terms of a portion of the mass of the moon, even being generous and pretending the moon has a density of 1000 kg/m^3 (remember, it is higher), it is a "massive" 0.000000000000001 times the mass of the moon, or 0.0000000000001 %, i.e. it is tiny. It will not have a significant effect.
As you just multiplied my generous figure by 100, the same effect will happen to the acceleration. So instead of the 9 fm/s, you will end up with 900 fm/s, almost 1 pm/s.
It is still basically nothing and should not have any significant effect.

And of course, now you run off into mountains of off topic garbage to escape yet another failure of yours.

Again, I have done the math to show no significant acceleration occurs from the ice. Even using your ridiculously over estimated mass flow rate, still no significant acceleration should occur.
You have nothing to support your claims that anything should occur.

Now like I said, do the math, with valid references for any numbers you use.
Until you do, you have absolutely nothing and these jets in no way indicate rockets can't work in a vacuum.

Even if it couldn't move a moon out of it's orbit around Saturn, it would certainly cause very substantial effect to the rate (speed) of it's rotation :
And that is just another baseless claim. Like for the claim of it having an effect on the orbit, do the math. Show it should have a substantial effect, and then show that no substantial effect occurs.

As for your claims about Earth, they have already been dealt with in the prior thread on the subject.
Go back there if you want to discuss it again.

This thread is for discussing rockets in space.
Perhaps you can finally answer the question you have been avoiding since the start:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Lets say you are all by yourself not gravitationally bound to anything nearby, so you are completely motionless. The only thing you have on you is your oxygen tank. If one were to pierce it (causing a sudden escape of all the oxygen very quickly) would the astronauts position move at all?

The simple fact is that it CANNOT be anything like a rocket.
Again, a rocket expends its fuel in a period of a few minutes, with this fuel making up the majority of the mass.
This is not happening with the moon. These jets have lasted quite a while and there is absolutely no indication that the majority of the mass is gone.
As such, it will not produce a significant force.

Like I said, if you don't like the numbers I have used, provide your own, with valid references to back them up, and do the math. Until you do so it is extreme dishonesty to claim it proves anything about the functioning of rockets in a vacuum as you have failed to show that there should be any significant force.

Can you read your link, it is almost diametrically opposed to your statement, bit of a recurring theme here.

Enceladus was thought to be Ice, however its mass measured by Cassini refuted this, it has the second highest density of Saturns major satellites, 3rd highest overall.

So the latest thoughts, as stated in your link, is that Enceladus has a rocky core with 20-30% empty space which would theoretically allow a geological process, such as the geysers which are observed.

True, "Enceladus does not have a density of 1000kg/m3, in fact" it has a density of 1610 kg/m3, that is why your calculations are useless.

Universe Today: Saturn’s Icy Moon Enceladus (https://www.universetoday.com/48796/enceladus/)
Composition and Surface Features:

Enceladus has a density of 1.61 g/cm3, which is higher than Saturn’s other mid-sized, icy satellites, suggesting a composition that includes a greater percentage of silicates and iron. It is also believed to be largely differentiated between a geologically active core and an icy mantle, with a liquid water ocean nestled between.

Enceladus: Ocean Moon (https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/missions/cassini/science/enceladus/)
Cassini revealed the dramatic truth: Enceladus is an active moon that hides a global ocean of liquid salty water beneath its crust. What’s more, jets of icy particles from that ocean, laced with a brew of water and simple organic chemicals, gush out into space continuously from this fascinating ocean world. The material shoots out at about 800 miles per hour (400 meters per second) and forms a plume that extends hundreds of miles into space. Some of the material falls back onto Enceladus, and some escapes to form Saturn’s vast E ring.

Incorrect, the density is 1610 kg/m3! And I've quoted that mass, about 1.08 x 1020 kg, before!
 
And to calculate the thrust you need an estimate of ejection rate (kg/s) and the ejection velocity, quoted as "about . . . 400 meters per second" above.

Au contraire.

In order to explain the puzzling findings within the context of heliocentrism, scientists had to INVENT the global subsurface ocean for Enceladus.

However, the electric arc theory disposes of that hypothesis quite easily.

Enceladus is a hollow ice shell, that is why the thrust provided by the huge geyser jets cannot be explained by the RE unless they accept the fact that these jets do not interact at all with the vacuum.

The only thing left to explain is the apparent regeneration of the mass of ice which is lost continuously to the vacuum of space.

These jets have lasted quite a while and there is absolutely no indication that the majority of the mass is gone.

Exactly.

Now, you the RE have to explain this mystery as well.
No we don't.
It is a tiny portion of the mass that is being ejected.

With a pathetic mass flow rate of 1000 kg/s, which is highly variable with it dropping much lower, and a total mass of ~10^20 kg, it would take roughly 10^17 s for it to all go, that is roughly 10^12 days or 3*10^10 years. That is 3 billion years.
With the mass flow rate dropping to 100 kg/s, that would be 30 billion years, or longer than the life time of the universe.

So there is no problem or mystery for the RE.

The only way to try and get there to be a problem is to completely ignore the scales involved to baselessly assert that the mass flow rate is massive to try and produce a massive amount of thrust and pretend that the moon should disappear in a short period of time.

So still no problem for a RE, still no indication that rockets magically wont work in a vacuum.

Firstly the mass of Enceladus was confirmed by its gravitational affect on Cassini, you dont dispute the size of Enceladus density = mass/volume tahdah

secondly your own evidence is that Enceladus has a rocky core with 20-30% cavities, hardly most.

thirdly almost 90% of your quotes prove Enceladus and Saturn are spherical, something you seem to simultaneously refute

Very well done.

Quote
In March 2007, it was found that the variation of radio emissions from the planet did not match Saturn's rotation rate. This variance may be caused by geyser activity on Saturn's moon Enceladus. The water vapor emitted into Saturn's orbit by this activity becomes charged and creates a drag upon Saturn's magnetic field, slowing its rotation slightly relative to the rotation of the planet.

Now, there is no escape for the RE.

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228339175_Enceladus_A_significant_plasma_source_for_Saturn's_magnetosphere

Gravity is only a partial description of the overall interaction between Enceladus and Saturn; electromagnetic forces must be included to obtain a much better understanding.

These terms, the electromagnetic potential, have to be included in the relativity equations, since Einstein's original equations do not have a bounded dynamic solution (i.e., can only be applied to static situations).

In either case, Enceladus is clearly implicated as a significant, if not dominant, source of Saturn's magnetospheric plasma.

Material blasted into space by Enceladus feeds Saturn’s giant E ring and is a major source of material (plasma) fueling Saturn’s magnetosphere.

https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/missions/cassini/science/magnetosphere/

Ok, based on your own claims about masses and distances, the Enceladus and Saturn are big enough and far enough.
You confirmed that at their closest the Saturn and the Earth are 1.2 billion kilometers apart, and at their farthest it is 1.7 billion kilometers.

Now, is the Earth rotating, or the Saturn is revolving around the Earth?

If Saturn is revolving Earth, at those 1.2 billion kilometers the orbit is 7.54 billion kilometers long.
It means orbital speed of 314 000 000 km/h or 87 222 km/s.

If Saturn is revolving Sun then its orbital speed is 9.68 km/s and all math about orbital mechanic works.

Geocentric version with everything revolving around Earth requires much stronger gravitational force to keep it in orbit.

Now repeat the same for Proxima Centauri which is 4.24 light years away.

Rubbish! You just make up stories to fit your "narrative". Your "Airy isostasy hypothesis" does not come into it!

The mass of a planetary body can be estimated from its effect on other nearby bodies, including the Cassini spacecraft - learn some astrophysics!

Enceladus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enceladus)
Internal structure
Mass estimates from the Voyager program missions suggested that Enceladus was composed almost entirely of water ice. However, based on the effects of Enceladus's gravity on Cassini, its mass was determined to be much higher than previously thought, yielding a density of 1.61 g/cm3. This density is higher than Saturn's other mid-sized icy satellites, indicating that Enceladus contains a greater percentage of silicates and iron.

You might read Enceladus Francis Nimmo, University of California Santa Cruz,CA, USA and Carolyn Porco,CICLOPS, Space Science Institute, Boulder, CO, USA (https://websites.pmc.ucsc.edu/~fnimmo/website/Encyc_Enceladus.pdf)

In other words, more of your stories to fit your "narrative".

Not just a subsurface ocean but also irin and nickel in the core - that does push up the average density.

Being fill with cavities does not prevent Enceladus from having an average density of around 1.61 kg/m3.

Like it or not, that mass and hence density of Enceladus is not as low as YOU seem to believe!

Lets say you are all by yourself not gravitationally bound to anything nearby, so you are completely motionless. The only thing you have on you is your oxygen tank. If one were to pierce it (causing a sudden escape of all the oxygen very quickly) would the astronauts position move at all?

Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it (unless you want to die rather quickly).  Rather, I would suggest using an MMU, or something similar.

topographic depression at the south pole. Since the shell thickness is necessarily greater than zero there, this provides an effective lower bound on the mean shell thickness.
Depending on the definition of isostasy, and the assumed ice shell and ocean densities


Every hypothesis made about the DENSITY of Enceladus is provided by the Airy assumption, nothing else.

The Interior of Enceladus, Douglas Hemingway, Luciano Iess, Radwan Tajeddine and Gabriel Tobie (http://douglashemingway.com/publications/Hemingway-3003-reprint.pdf)
Whereas you cherry-pick your references to find papers with the right words, never mind the meaning or context!

Now, I have no basis or need to question that paper but it does not base any mean density or overall mass estimate on the Airy hypothesis.

That paper, as it's name indicates, is entirely about the "The Interior of Enceladus" and says nothing about how the overall mass is determined.

But look at TABLE 1 where it uses GM  = 7.210443 ± 0.00003 km3 s–2 and we know big G = 6.67259 x 10-11 N m2/kg2.

So, dividing we get M (the total mass of Enceladus) is 1.08 x 1020 kg, which, I believe is the value that I have used all along.

Quote from: sandokhan

No, the 1.61 kg/m3 figure is NOT based on the Airy hypothesis but on independent gravity methods and the Airy hypothesis is used in that paper in the determination of the The Interior of Enceladus.

So, unless you come up with something better, the density of Enceladus stays at 1.61 kg/m3, as NASA says!

It is the Airy hypothesis which leads them to believe that there a subsurface ocean, and that the geysers have an interior heat source.

Without the Airy hypothesis, all we have a left is an icy hollow shell (perhaps some 50 km in thickness).


You cannot invoke the gravity readings.

Here is why.

Cassini is A THREE AXIS (3-AXIS) STABILIZED AIRCRAFT.

As such, it suffers from the same gravitational anomalies experienced by the Pioneer space mission.

http://www.ptep-online.com/2016/PP-47-02.PDF

However, it is a very specific solution that applies only to the main term of the Pioneer spacecraft anomaly, but left unresolved many other anomalies, including those of the spaceships Cassini, Ulysses and Galileo.

Consider the anomalous acceleration detected at the shortest distance of the Cassini spacecraft during solar conjunction in June, 2002.


https://arxiv.org/pdf/0907.4184.pdf

The results from Galileo, NEAR, Cassini, and Rosetta, as well as the null result from
MESSENGER, summarized in Table 1, suggest that a relationship may exist between the
magnitude of the flyby anomaly and the altitude and geometry of the flyby trajectory.


Here is the EUROPEAN SPACE AGENCY'S own assessment of the situation:

http://www.esa.int/gsp/ACT/doc/MAD/pub/ACT-RPR-MAD-2006-(JSR)NonDedicatedOptionsToTestThePioneerAnomaly.pdf

Also the Cassini tracking does not yield results of the necessary precision because the spacecraft is three-axis stabilized. Furthermore, thermal radiation from the RTGs causes a large acceleration bias, the magnitude of which is not well determined. The large bias
originates from the placement of the RTGs close to the spacecraft bus. The thermal control of the propulsion module subsystem is accomplished by collecting thermal radiation from the RTGs in a cavity covered with insulating blankets. The radiation geometry of the cavity is complicated and leads to a large uncertainty in the acceleration bias due to RTG heat.



Cassini is completely unreliable to provide any sensible data on any kind of gravitational reading.


https://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0308017.pdf

Attempts to verify the anomaly using other spacecraft proved disappointing. This is
because the Voyager, Galileo, Ulysses, and Cassini spacecraft navigation data all have
their own individual difficulties for use in an independent test of the anomaly.

This would have made the navigational accuracy too poor, as happened with the 3-axis-stabilized Voyagers. This is one of the main reasons the Pioneers were so well tracked.
Further, modern 3-axis stabilization relies heavily on the use of precise fuel gauges (to
measure fuel usage during maneuvers for input into navigational models), high quality thrusters (for precise attitude control purposes), reaction wheels (to keep preferred spacecraft pointing for a limited time), and often high resolution accelerometers (to track onboard generated non-gravitational disturbances). Although there exist fuel gauges with the desirable precision, thrusters have low repeatability and reaction wheel de-saturation introduces high acceleration noise. Finally, existing pico-g level accelerometers also have low reliability. This all makes 3-axis stabilization a very costly and undesirable choice for our deep space mission.



Furthermore, any gravitational reading, flawed as it is, must be CORROBORATED with the basic assumptions made regarding the geology of Enceladus.

And these assumptions, all of them, involve the AIRY HYPOTHESIS.

HERE IS THE REAL REFERENCE ON ENCELADUS, which provides the ASSUMPTIONS which lead to certain conclusions:

https://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0308017.pdf

Attempts to verify the anomaly using other spacecraft proved disappointing. This is
because the Voyager, Galileo, Ulysses, and Cassini spacecraft navigation data all have
their own individual difficulties for use in an independent test of the anomaly.

This would have made the navigational accuracy too poor, as happened with the 3-axis-stabilized Voyagers. This is one of the main reasons the Pioneers were so well tracked.
Further, modern 3-axis stabilization relies heavily on the use of precise fuel gauges (to
measure fuel usage during maneuvers for input into navigational models), high quality thrusters (for precise attitude control purposes), reaction wheels (to keep preferred spacecraft pointing for a limited time), and often high resolution accelerometers (to track onboard generated non-gravitational disturbances). Although there exist fuel gauges with the desirable precision, thrusters have low repeatability and reaction wheel de-saturation introduces high acceleration noise. Finally, existing pico-g level accelerometers also have low reliability. This all makes 3-axis stabilization a very costly and undesirable choice for our deep space mission.



Furthermore, any gravitational reading, flawed as it is, must be CORROBORATED with the basic assumptions made regarding the geology of Enceladus.

And these assumptions, all of them, involve the AIRY HYPOTHESIS.

HERE IS THE REAL REFERENCE ON ENCELADUS, which provides the ASSUMPTIONS which lead to certain conclusions:

http://douglashemingway.com/publications/Hemingway-3003-reprint.pdf

Page 64 (page 8 of the pdf document)

A compensation mechanism is therefore required.

is Airy-type isostatic compensation.


This is HOW they reach the final conclusions about Enceladus: they make the same assumptions they made here on Earth.

But the Airy isostasy hypothesis is false:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg1096437#msg1096437


Page 65 (page 9 of the pdf document)

as it would require Enceladus to be one of the most strongly differentiated solid bodies in
the solar system. This observation also provides a clue about the spatial extent of the subsurface liquid layer (assuming Airy type compensation)

Assuming Airy compensation


Again, they assume the AIRY ISOSTASY hypothesis to reach final conclusions.


Page 66 (page 10 of the pdf document)

Here, the dimensionless factor g is a placeholder allowing for various conceptions of Airy isostasy

However, assuming some version of Airy compensation, a few things can be stated with confidence. First, the thinnest part of the ice shell must be located beneath the large
topographic depression at the south pole. Since the shell thickness is necessarily greater than zero there, this provides an effective lower bound on the mean shell thickness.
Depending on the definition of isostasy, and the assumed ice shell and ocean densities


Every hypothesis made about the DENSITY of Enceladus is provided by the Airy assumption, nothing else.


Page 67 (page 11 of the pdf document)

Whereas all the models discussed so far assume some version of Airy-type isostasy, in which the surface topography is supported in part by lateral variations in the ice shell’s
thickness, it should be noted that the topography could also be supported in part by lateral variations in density [i.e., Pratt-type isostasy (e.g., Besserer et al., 2013; Tajeddine et al., 2017)].


The authors agree that they based their conclusions solely on the Airy hypothesis, and that OTHER isostasy models (just as false) will lead to a different conclusion about the density of Enceladus.


Page 68 (page 12 of the pdf document)

A summary of all of the models is presented: everything is based ON THE AIRY HYPOTHESIS assumption.


Page 73 (page 17 of the pdf document)

and making reasonable assumptions about the ice shell and ocean densities, the total crustal thinning (relative to the mean shell thickness) at the south pole must be roughly 16–18 km, assuming complete Airy-type isostatic compensation


NOW, THE BEST PART!!!

Page 74 (page 18 of the pdf document)

Lateral variations in ice shell thickness assuming complete Airy compensation of all known topography [up to spherical harmonic degree 8 (Nimmo et al., 2011)].


The Nimmo reference is the one you provided!!!

The authors of that article based their final conclusions ON THE AIRY HYPOTHESIS as well.


The rest of the conclusions are based on the PHYSICAL LIBRATION assumptions.

Nothing else.


The gravity measurements, such as they are, are based on RADIO TRACKING, using the Doppler effect, which essentially is an ETHER WAVE theory.


On page 63, the authors describe the HUGE PROBLEMS with the radio tracking method for Cassini.


The 1.61 kg/m3 figure is PURE FANTASY, based on the Airy hypothesis.


All we have left is an icy hollow shell with huge jets of water vapor which do not interact at all with the vacuum.

Here is your 500 km hollow rocket:

(https://cosmos-magazine.imgix.net/file/spina/photo/11225/170721_Enceladus_Full.jpg?fit=clip&w=835)

Another day another response starts the same way

READ THE PROOF YOU SUBMIT AS EVIDENCE

The paper you submit is trying to describe the density of the planet with variations of the Airy compensation, you do not use Airy to work out density.

Quote
Without the Airy hypothesis, all we have a left is an icy hollow shell (perhaps some 50 km in thickness).

How did you reach this conclusion and reconcile the density?

http://www.ptep-online.com/2016/PP-47-02.PDF

What has an acceleration anomaly in interplanetary space got to do with measuring the mass of a celestial object?

ditto

https://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0308017.pdf

You cant just keep throwing spurious papers at an issue and make spurious interpretations.

Also helps to keep track with your argument and the reason you are posting, you first brought up the density issue, so you could talk about the hypothesised cavity in the rocky core, at 1.61 kg/m3.

You got yourself a bit lost in your own argument, reported 20-30% firstly as 33% hollow then mostly hollow. I assume you must have made the jump to if a sphere is 20-30% hollow the density must be wrong, so reverted to an earlier argument that Enceladus had an abnormally low density.

To cover this up you start throwing mud around regarding an acceleration anomaly that has been detected by almost all deep space craft.

How does any of this relate to rockets in a vacuum.

If it helps run the maths twice once with the current 1.61 kg/m3 then with whatever density you think it has

then tell us the force in KN being exerted by the vapour, we can then discuss whether it can hope to move enceladus or enceladus light.

TRUE NATURE OF THE MOON AND THE SUN :


1. In the video above you can clearly see (among many other very interesting things) that we can observe stars through the moon?
How is that possible if the moon is a rocky object?

I didn't find anymore about Prof. R. Foster, but I did find this published by NASA from 2007:
The Moon is immersed in a plasma environment—the local cosmos—that is “magnetized.” It is threaded with magnetic fields that are often “frozen” into the plasma, a state of high electrical conductivity that effectively couples the motions of the plasma and the magnetic field.

Besides the fact that when the moon is only a few hours old, and sometimes until past the first quarter, the naked eye is able to see through her body to the light shining on the other side, both fixed stars and planets have been seen through a considerable part of her substance, as proved by the following quotations :

QUOTE 1. Sir James South of the Royal Observatory in Kensington wrote in a letter to the Times newspaper April 7, 1848 :

"On the 15th of March, 1848, when the moon was seven and a half days old, I never saw her unillumined
disc so beautifully. . . . On my first looking into the telescope a star of about the 7th magnitude was some minutes of a degree distant from the moon's dark limb. I saw that its occultation by the moon was inevitable. . . . The star, instead of disappearing the moment the moon's edge came in contact with it, apparently glided on the moon's dark face, as if it had been seen through a transparent moon; or, as if a star were between me and the moon. . . .I have seen a similar apparent projection several times. . . .
The cause of this phenomenon is involved in impenetrable mystery."

QUOTE 2. "Occultation of Jupiter by the moon, on the 24th of May, 1860, by Thomas Gaunt, Esq. 'I send you the following account as seen by me at Stoke Newington. The observation was made with an achromatic of 3.3 inches aperture, 50 inches focus; the immersion with a power of 50, and the emersion with a power of 70. At the immersion I could not see the dark limb of the moon until the planet appeared to touch it, and then only to the extent of the diameter of the planet; but what I was most struck with was the appearance on the moon as it passed over the planet. It appeared as though the planet was a dark object, and glided on to the moon instead of behind it; and the appearance continued until the planet was hid, when I suddenly lost the dark limb of the moon altogether.'"

QUOTE 3. "Occultation of Jupiter by the moon, May 24, 1860, observed by T. W. Burr, Esq., at Highbury. The planet's first limb disappeared at 8h. 44m. 6.7s., the second limb disappeared at 8h. 45m. 4.9s. local sidereal time, on the moon's dark limb. The planet's first limb reappeared at 9h. 55m. 48s.; the second limb reappeared at 9h. 56m. 44.7s., at the bright limb. The planet was well seen, notwithstanding the strong sunlight (4h. 34m. Greenwich mean time), but of course without any belts. The moon's dark limb could not be detected until it touched the planet, when it was seen very sharply defined and black; and as it passed the disc of Jupiter in front appeared to brighten. So that the moon's limb was preceded by a bright band of light, doubtless an effect of contrast."

QUOTE 4. In the "Philosophical Transactions" for 1794 it is stated:--

"Three persons in Norwich, and one in London, saw a star on the evening of March 7th, 1794, in the dark part of the moon, which had not then attained the first quadrature; and from the representations which are given the star must have appeared very far advanced upon the disc. On the same evening there was an occultation of Aldebaran, which Dr. Maskelyne thought a singular coincidence, but which would now be acknowledged as the cause of the phenomenon."

QUOTE 5. Fernando de Magulhane observed that the moon, during a solar eclipse, was not perfectly opaque. He says:--

"On the forenoon of October 11th, 1520, an eclipse of the sun was expected. At eight seconds past ten a.m. the sun, having then reached the altitude of 42°, began to lose its brightness, and gradually continued so to do, changing to a dark red colour, without any cloud intervening that could be perceived. No part of the body of the sun was hid, but the whole appeared as when seen through a thick smoke, till it passed the altitude of 44½°, after which it recovered its former lustre."

QUOTE 6. (ABOUT THE NATURE OF MOON'S LIGHT) :
"The light of the moon, though concentrated by the most powerful burning-glass, is incapable of raising the temperature of the most delicate thermometer. M. De la Hire collected the rays of the full moon when on the meridian, by means of a burning-glass 35 inches in diameter, and made them fall on the bulb of a delicate air-thermometer. No effect was produced though the lunar rays by this glass were concentrated 300 times.

Professor Forbes concentrated the moon's light by a lens 30 inches in diameter, its focal distance being about 41 inches, and having a power of concentration exceeding 6000 times. The image of the moon, which was only 18 hours past full, and less than two hours from the meridian, was brilliantly thrown by this lens on the extremity of a commodious thermopile. Although the observations were made in the most unexceptional manner, and (supposing that half the rays were reflected, dispersed and absorbed), though the light of the moon was concentrated 3000 times, not the slightest thermo effect was produced."

In the "Lancet" (Medical Journal), for March 14th, 1856, particulars are given of several experiments which proved that the moon's rays when concentrated, actually reduced the temperature upon a thermometer more than eight degrees.

2. The Sun is not a Nuclear furnace raging at millions of degrees. It is Electric and Cold!

 The nuclear furnace myth of the Sun, which was created to support energy baron profits and control, is exposed by Eric Dollard for the sham it is. This invalidates all tokamak fusion reactors based on the idiotic theory that the sun is a nuke furnace. Meaning, that 48 billion dollars of taxpayer money has been wasted on this fraud called nuclear fusion. This is how the racket is run folks, TPTB fund all of this worthless quackademic psyence in order to keep you paying for energy, which should be pracitically free in all applications.

Their slave system of backwards explosion based technologies insures them that we keep paying for their fuels, fighting their dirty lying wars and enriching the subhuman filth who profit from these demonic world destroying activities.

3. The event was attributed by believers to Our Lady of Fátima, a reported apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary to the children who had made predictions of the event on 13 July 1917, 19 August, and 13 September. The children stated that the Lady had promised them that she would on 13 October reveal her identity to them and provide a miracle "so that all may believe."

Marchi reports that, "[t]heir ranks (those present on 13 October) included believers and non-believers, pious old ladies and scoffing young men. Hundreds, from these mixed categories, have given formal testimony. Reports do vary; impressions are in minor details confused, but none to our knowledge has directly denied the visible prodigy of the sun."

Some of the witness statements follow below. They are taken from John De Marchi's several books on the matter.

    "Before the astonished eyes of the crowd, whose aspect was biblical as they stood bare-headed, eagerly searching the sky, the sun trembled, made sudden incredible movements outside all cosmic laws — the sun 'danced' according to the typical expression of the people."Avelino de Almeida, writing for O Século

    O Século was Portugal's most widely circulated and influential newspaper. It was pro-government and anti-clerical at the time. Almeida's previous articles had been to satirize the previously reported events at Fátima.

    "The sun, at one moment surrounded with scarlet flame, at another aureoled in yellow and deep purple, seemed to be in an exceedingly swift and whirling movement, at times appearing to be loosened from the sky and to be approaching the earth, strongly radiating heat."Dr. Domingos Pinto Coelho, writing for the newspaper Ordem.

    "...The silver sun, enveloped in the same gauzy grey light, was seen to whirl and turn in the circle of broken clouds... The light turned a beautiful blue, as if it had come through the stained-glass windows of a cathedral, and spread itself over the people who knelt with outstretched hands... people wept and prayed with uncovered heads, in the presence of a miracle they had awaited. The seconds seemed like hours, so vivid were they." ― Reporter for the Lisbon newspaper O Dia.

    "The sun's disc did not remain immobile. This was not the sparkling of a heavenly body, for it spun round on itself in a mad whirl, when suddenly a clamor was heard from all the people. The sun, whirling, seemed to loosen itself from the firmament and advance threateningly upon the earth as if to crush us with its huge fiery weight. The sensation during those moments was terrible."Dr. Almeida Garrett, Professor of Natural Sciences at Coimbra University.

    "As if like a bolt from the blue, the clouds were wrenched apart, and the sun at its zenith appeared in all its splendor. It began to revolve vertiginously on its axis, like the most magnificent firewheel that could be imagined, taking on all the colors of the rainbow and sending forth multicolored flashes of light, producing the most astounding effect. This sublime and incomparable spectacle, which was repeated three distinct times, lasted for about ten minutes. The immense multitude, overcome by the evidence of such a tremendous prodigy, threw themselves on their knees." Dr. Manuel Formigão, a professor at the seminary at Santarém, and a priest. He had attended the September visitation, and examined and questioned the children in detail several times.

    "I feel incapable of describing what I saw. I looked fixedly at the sun, which seemed pale and did not hurt my eyes. Looking like a ball of snow, revolving on itself, it suddenly seemed to come down in a zig-zag, menacing the earth. Terrified, I ran and hid myself among the people, who were weeping and expecting the end of the world at any moment." — Rev. Joaquim Lourenço, describing his boyhood experience in Alburitel, eighteen kilometers from Fatima.

    "On that day of October 13, 1917, without remembering the predictions of the children, I was enchanted by a remarkable spectacle in the sky of a kind I had never seen before. I saw it from this veranda..." — Portuguese poet Afonso Lopes Vieira.

According to De Marchi, "Engineers that have studied the case reckoned that an incredible amount of energy would have been necessary to dry up those pools of water that had formed on the field in a few minutes as it was reported by witnesses."

You really need to upgrade your references.
You and jamas are the only one arguing against that available references here.
You are the one claiming pure fantasy where the moon magically sheds very large amounts of its mass, yet doesn't disappear.

you simply opened the first pdf you found and surreptitiously brought it here thinking it will impress someone. It does not.
Good job projecting yet again.

None of the spam you are spouting helps to back up your claim in any way.
You are yet to show the jets of Enceladus should produce any significant effect on its orbit and thus it in no way contributes to the discussion on rockets working in a vacuum.

If you want to keep trying to dig this hole, you need to show that these jets should be producing a significant effect on the moon. Until you do, it is useless to say anything more on it as it in no way refutes the reality of rockets working in a vacuum.

TRUE NATURE OF THE MOON AND THE SUN :
And more off topic spam by jamas.

Have you figured out the answer to the question yet or finally decided to be honest and admit that rockets do work in a vacuum?
Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force?
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied with the corresponding reactionary force?
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Now, is the Earth rotating, or the Saturn is revolving around the Earth?

If Saturn is revolving Earth, at those 1.2 billion kilometers the orbit is 7.54 billion kilometers long.
It means orbital speed of 314 000 000 km/h or 87 222 km/s.

If Saturn is revolving Sun then its orbital speed is 9.68 km/s and all math about orbital mechanic works.

Geocentric version with everything revolving around Earth requires much stronger gravitational force to keep it in orbit.

Now repeat the same for Proxima Centauri which is 4.24 light years away.

1. Carter: And what are the implications of local motion in the geocentric model? Clearly, the stars are not “fixed” in relation to one another. What then holds them in their respective places are they whirl about the earth at incredible speeds? 

R. Sungenis: The stars aren’t “whirling about the Earth at incredible speeds.” The whole universe is rotating around the Earth and carrying all the stars with it. The stars are moving no faster with respect to the universe than a person sitting in a car is moving with respect to the car moving at 60mph. The very reason these stars can stay fixed is because they are not “whirling.”

2. Keating:   page   78:   “If   aether   does   not   exist...geocentrism   collapses  because  there  is  no  way  to  explain  how  the  star  field  can circle the Earth every twenty four hours, and there is no way to explain what keeps the Earth at the center of the universe.”

R. Sungenis: False. Both Ernst Mach and Albert Einstein allowed for the possibility  of  a  geocentric  universe  in  which  the  stars  revolve  around  a  fixed  Earth,  based  on  the  fact  of  relative  motion,  but  neither  incorporated  an  aether  for  that  purpose.  The  geocentrist  incorporates  aether  because  that’s   what   the   experiments   demonstrate.   As   such,   aether   helps   in   understanding how a geocentric universe would best operate.

3. So what other physics, from the world’s perspective, do we have that does what Einstein’s GRT did for geocentrism? Lo and behold, Newton’s physics does the same thing for geocentrism that Einstein did – he makes it viable. Of course, Newton’s admission has been hidden from us for a long time, but it was finally released. As Steven Weinberg puts it in his latest book, "To Explain the World" :

If we were to adopt a frame of reference like Tycho’s in which the Earth is at rest, then the distant galaxies would seem to be executing circular turns once a year, and  in  general  relativity  this  enormous  motion  would  create  forces  akin  to gravitation, which would act on the Sun and planets and give them the motions of the Tychonic theory. Newton seems to have had a hint of this. In an unpublished ‘Proposition 43’ that did not make it into the Principia, Newton acknowledges that Tycho’s theory could be true if some other force besides ordinary gravitation acted on the Sun and planets.

Here is what Newton said in Proposition 43:

In order for the Earth to be at rest in the center of the system of the Sun, Planets, and Comets, there is required both universal gravity and another force in addition that acts on all bodies equally according to the quantity of matter in each of them and is equal and opposite to the accelerative gravity with which the Earth tends to the Sun... Since this force is equal and opposite to its gravity toward the Sun, the Earth can truly remain in equilibrium between these two forces and be at rest.  And thus celestial bodies can move around the Earth at rest,as in the Tychonic system.

"We have[...] certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth." - Galileo Galilei in letter to Francesco Rinuccini, March 29th, 1641

4. Keating: page 86: Quoting Newman: “For stars close or far, we can  detect  their  motion  towards  or  away  from  us  by  a  shift  in  their frequency of the light they emit, the so-called Doppler shift. We  find  in  each  of  these  motions  two  components,  one  due  to  the  motion  of  the  Earth  around  the  Sun  (which  varies  with  a  year-long  period)  and  another  due  to  the  relative  motion  of  the  Sun  and  the  particular  star  (which  has  no  such  periodicity).  Again, clear evidence that the Earth is moving around the sun.”

R. Sungenis: False. The Doppler Effect (or Doppler Shift) was discovered by Christian Doppler in 1842. This effect occurs when the source of wave emission  moves  closer  or  farther  away  from  the  observer.  The  waves  are  compressed  when  the  source  moves  closer  and  stretched  when  the  source  moves farther away. This phenomenon does not occur, however, when the receiver  moves  closer  or  farther  away  from  a  stationary  source  since  the  waves  coming  to  the  receiver  are  the  same  in  both  cases.  Light  acts  in  a  similar manner. If the source of light is moving closer to the observer, the light waves are compressed or “blue-shifted”; while if the source of light is moving  farther  away  from  the  observer,  the  light  waves  are  stretched  or  “red-shifted.”  Heliocentrists  have  claimed  that  since  the  Earth  revolves  around the sun at about 19 mps, this movement causes the Doppler shift of stars. As one author puts it, “Classical physics, but not Special Relativity, predicts different Doppler shifts for the source moving versus the observer moving,  allowing  one  to  ‘determine’  whether  the  earth  moves  or  a  ‘fixed  star’ moves....To conclude, Mach did not consider the difference between the  Copernican  and  Ptolemaic/Brahean  systems  and  the  observations  falsifying the latter.”

The truth is, however, that the Neo-Tychonic geocentric system can easily explain Doppler shift. The Neo-Tychonic system has the star field rotating around the Earth on a 1 AU radial hub. As such, on one hemisphere of the star-field  the  stars  will  be  receding  away  from  the  Earth  and  on  the  opposite  hemisphere  the  stars  will  be  advancing  toward  the  Earth.  Those  advancing  toward  the  Earth  will  create  a  Doppler  blue  shift  and  those  receding will create a Doppler red shift.

5. Carter: Why do neighboring stars orbit at the same rate as distant galaxies when there is a multi‐billion‐fold difference in their respective distances? 

R. Sungenis: For the same reason that someone on the rim of a moving carousal is remaining at the same position as someone near the center pole the carousal. They are all on the same platform—the universe. 

6. Carter: What causes them to orbit once a day when some are very close compared to others and nothing is fixing them in place with respect to one another? 

R. Sungenis: Since the platform (the universe) is rotating, not the people (the stars), then there is nothing to disrupt their position. The only thing we need to add is that the centrifugal force of a daily rotating universe is compensated for by gravity and the two other inertial forces, Coriolis and Euler, the same as if a person on a moving carousal can remain on the carousal if he holds on to a horse or if he holds on to a rope anchored to the center pole. Moreover, the fact is, Newtonian, Machian and Einsteinian mechanics all allow the same physical answer. If Einstein did not allow it in GRT, then his GRT would be falsified, since it depends on co‐equivalence and co‐variance of both the heliocentric and geocentric systems.

Again, none of that has anything at all to do with rockets working in a vacuum.
It has already been refuted in another thread. The GC model is a failure, just like the FE model. If you want to discuss it go back to the prior threads where you have had your GC nonsense refuted.

Now try and answer the question for once:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?

It is important to note that the geysers from Enceladus have shut down: we are discussing here only the data pertaining to the year 2005.

https://www.space.com/31385-saturn-moon-enceladus-geysers-losing-steam.html

Yet, there is no difference in the orbital parameters of Enceladus, with or without the geysers.

Without the Airy hypothesis, Enceladus becomes an icy hollow shell.

The radio tracking data of the Cassini spacecraft cannot be relied upon when it comes to very sensitive observations (see the references provided).

What if the radius of Enceladus is not 500 km, but a much lower figure?

All of these questions can be answered once we infer that Cassini has a hemispherical resonator gyroscope onboard which uses the Coriolis effect to detect rotation.

There were no Voyager or Cassini missions.

In FET, Jupiter has the same diameter as that of the Sun/Moon/Black Sun/Shadow Moon, some 636 meters.

Saturn, then, has some 200 meters in diameter.

Enceladus, some 20 meters in diameter at most.

That is, Enceladus is as large as a modern rocket.

(https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/spaceimages/images/wallpaper/PIA01277-640x350.jpg)

(https://www.cloudynights.com/uploads/monthly_06_2014/post-30168-14074307966295.jpg)

Then, if we put these numbers into the thrust equation, with mrf = 1000kg/s, A = 6.25 m2, V = 583m/s, and calculate the mass of an icy hollow discoidal shell with an outer radius of 20 meters and an inner radius of 15 meters, we see that the force developed by the geyser jets is formidable, given the true size of Enceladus.

What I have to do is to prove that Cassini never orbited the solar system, and also answer the question regarding the source of matter for the geyser jets given the true size of Enceladus.

So you say but I've learnt not to trust your interpretation of papers and I've no time to investigate further.

Quote from: sandokhan
What if the radius of Enceladus is not 500 km, but a much lower figure?
Since you've no basis for that conjecture I'll ignore it.

Quote from: sandokhan
All of these questions can be answered once we infer that Cassini has a hemispherical resonator gyroscope onboard which uses the Coriolis effect to detect rotation.
It did use "Northrop Grumman’s highly reliable hemispherical resonator gyro is a vital component of the company’s SIRU™, which has provided critical capabilities for the attitude control of NASA’s Cassini spacecraft."
So?

The Stanford Gravity Probe B (GPB) experiment was mentioned above. It involves a mechanical gyroscope, but I know of no physicist who would argue that a mechanical and an optical gyroscope would give different results. It is the intent of GPB to measure the Lense-Thirring frame dragging from earth rotation and the geodetic precession (spinorbit and space curvature effects). The former will amount to about 0.05 arc seconds per year and the latter to about 6.9 arc seconds per year. By contrast, if the gyroscope were affected by the orbital rotation, an additional anomalous precession of 1,296,000 arc seconds per orbit results. This insensitivity of mechanical gyroscopes to orbital rotation is clearly illustrated by the early TRANSIT (Navy navigation) satellites. During launch the satellites acquired a large spin, and the satellites themselves acted like large mechanical gyroscopes. In order to point the transmit antenna toward the earth, a boom with attached mass had to be deployed to cause gravity-gradient stabilization. But the satellite spin had to be removed before the gravity-gradient stabilization could occur—precisely because a gyroscope is not itself affected by the orbital rotation.

The Cassini spacecraft has an onboard HRG. Why did it not detect the ORBITAL CORIOLIS EFFECT (orbit of the spacecraft around the Sun)?

Vibrating gyroscopes can be used to detect the ether drift (FET, or earth rotation, RET):

But Enceladus does not have a density of 1000kg/m^3, in fact it is mostly hollow, that is why your calculations are useless.

In order to calculate the thrust, with the new figures (at least 33% cavities), we need the pressure (as I have said from the start).

If it is mostly hollow, why did it eject ice from it's surface as such.

wew lad, did I miss a few days.  Okay, quick recap...

cikljamas still doesn't understand Newton's second law and refuses to acknowledge how the exhaust is acting on the rocket.  Then cikljamas claims that rockets working in a vacuum is equivalent to creating something out of nothing, a la the creation of the universe.  So presumably, when cikljamas gets around to seeing videos of rockets working in a vacuum, it's also evidence that the universe was created out of nothing.  That'll be awkward.

Then sandokhan fires up his Hollow Enceladus Theory, and claims that Enceladus is in fact a tiny rocket-sized ball shooting water vapor like rocket exhaust, and the fact that it doesn't move like a rocket is proof that rockets don't work in a vacuum.  Seems to me like it's actually proof that Enceladus is not a tiny rocket-sized ball, but to each his own.  Surprisingly, sandokhan also doesn't understand Newton's second law, or at least I am surprised at this.  Coming from a man who loves to wade in piles of unitless numbers, I supposed I just assumed he'd want to calculate f=m*a on everything.  Guess I was wrong.

Three questions I still have:
1) Do flatearthers believe f = m a ..?
2) How did we acquire those images of Enceladus, if not from a space probe that used a rocket?
3) If Jupiter et al are tiny little balls just a little further beyond the clouds, why don't they fall to earth?

I have many other questions, but I gotta learn to stay focused.

There were no Voyager or Cassini missions.

In FET, Jupiter has the same diameter as that of the Sun/Moon/Black Sun/Shadow Moon, some 636 meters.

Saturn, then, has some 200 meters in diameter.

Enceladus, some 20 meters in diameter at most.

That is, Enceladus is as large as a modern rocket.

Really?

Geocentrism was the standard model throughout the Western world during antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The earliest known attempt at a mathematical model came from Eudoxus of Cnidus in the 4th century BCE (his works are lost, but his solar system is described by Aristotle).

*A* According to Aristarchus (3rd B.C.) diameter of the sun was about 70 000 km (5,5 times wider than the diameter of the earth)
*B* Ptolemy (2nd A.D.) was in agreement with Aristarchus regarding the distance to the sun (7 000 000 km) and consequently regarding the diameter of the sun, as well.
*C* Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) THE GREATEST ASTRONOMER OF ALL TIME was still in agreement with Ptolemy and Aristarchus on this question.

So, according to Ptolemy and Tycho Brahe the sizes of the spheres were calculated in the following way. The Moon's distance from Earth was thought to vary between 33 Earth radii (ER) and 64 ER. The Sun‟s distance was calculated to be between 1160 ER and 1260 ER.

THE DISTANCE TO THE MOON :
33*6400 = 211 200 km
64*6400 = 409 600 km

THE DISTANCE TO THE SUN :
1160*6400 = 7 424 000 km
1260*6400 = 8 064 000 km

(https://i.postimg.cc/15ThNcD5/TYCHO-BRAHE-DISTANCES-DIAGRAM.jpg)

THE DISTANCE TO THE SATURN :
between 72 000 000 and 80 000 000 km

The distances between the equator and the north pole cannot be the same for a globe and a flat earth. Just think of half a ball. To draw the distance between the top and the bottom of the half ball, you would have to draw along the curve of the ball. Now, if you flatten the half ball, you will get the same distance between the center of the circle and the outside edge. However, the size of the bottom of the half ball has to expand out to a larger circle. So, either your distance around the equator is wrong or your distance between the equator and the north pole is wrong or your flat earth model is wrong. Take your pick.

Since the known distance from the north/south pole to the equator is 10,000 km (5400 nm)...and since the known circumference of the earth is 40,000 km (21600 nm)...then it follows that the earth cannot be a flat disk since the radius of a disk of 40,000 km is 6369 km...not 10,000 km...So, the only way around this simple argument is providing any evidence to the contrary regarding the circumference of the equator or the distance from the poles to the equator or both. There are 90 degrees of distance from the equator to the North Pole. Each degree has 60 minutes, each minute = 1 nautical mile, therefore 60 x 90 = 5,400 nautical miles = *10 000 km.* Btw, what would be meaning of the word EQUATOR on the flat earth?

Now, if the earth were a flat disc (on which the distance from the NP to the Equator would be 10000 km, as it is the case in our reality), then the circumference of such a disc (at the equator) would be 62800 km, not 40000 km!!! This number (62800 km) is absolutely preposterous (and in every conceivable aspect beyond the wildest imagination of an utter lunatic), so that only a complete idiot would give any attention to such ludicrous fanciful value. So, since the KNOWN distance from the North Pole to the Equator is out of question, and since the KNOWN value for the circumference of the Equator is out of question, also, your flat earth dreams end up right here, once and for all.

So, my question for you is this :

Do you really believe that Aristarchus, Ptolemy and Tycho Brahe were NASA shills???

If you do, then i can sell you the Brooklyn bridge, would you like to buy it?

It is important to note that the geysers from Enceladus have shut down: we are discussing here only the data pertaining to the year 2005.

https://www.space.com/31385-saturn-moon-enceladus-geysers-losing-steam.html

Yet, there is no difference in the orbital parameters of Enceladus, with or without the geysers.

Without the Airy hypothesis, Enceladus becomes an icy hollow shell.

Its important to note that you are wrong, firstly you have already posted a paper from this year that discusses variations in plumes from individual sources to position in orbit. I cant find any other refference at this moment relating to the plumes stopping.

Secondly as you know, you posted the links, the last Cassini pass through the plume was in 2015.


Yet, there is no difference in the orbital parameters of Enceladus, with or without the geysers.

 

Well as pointed out above the jets as far as we know have not stopped.

But in any case that’s my position not yours?? I have been consistent the geysers, relativley low mass as it is ejected cannot provide sufficent force to move a small moon.


Without the Airy hypothesis, Enceladus becomes an icy hollow shell.

 
Again your paper, your link.

We established that your papar was using various Airy assumptions to hypothesise what interior structures could be present to match the known mass and observable activity of the moon.


The radio tracking data of the Cassini spacecraft cannot be relied upon when it comes to very sensitive observations (see the references provided).
 
Im going to assume you mean the RSS system on Cassini, a passive experiment which was capturing data on radio waves to and from earth and the affect of these waves passing through or near a variety of objects. It was used to gather more information on an acceleration anomoly, as you pointed out.
This was an added bonus of the RSS not its primary function and you havent provided any evidence that the RSS system was in anyway defficent for the rest of its tasks?


What if the radius of Enceladus is not 500 km, but a much lower figure?
 

I raised this a couple of days ago, why don’t you play around with the mass of Enceladus and and come up with a number of sceanarios and the amount of force potentially required to creat observable movement or variation of orbit.

You wittered on about not being able to work out force as you didn’t know the pressure???

But please go ahead, I don’t mind joining in on a bit of a thought experiment, or do you actually believe it is smaller, if so can you provide evidence.


All of these questions can be answered once we infer that Cassini has a hemispherical resonator gyroscope onboard which uses the Coriolis effect to detect rotation.

Enceladus, some 20 meters in diameter at most.

Then, if we put these numbers into the thrust equation, with mrf = 1000kg/s, A = 6.25 m2, V = 583m/s, and calculate the mass of an icy hollow discoidal shell with an outer radius of 20 meters and an inner radius of 15 meters, we see that the force developed by the geyser jets is formidable, given the true size of Enceladus.

What I have to do is to prove that Cassini never orbited the solar system, and also answer the question regarding the source of matter for the geyser jets given the true size of Enceladus.

Those are not the figures you quoted in your peer reviewed papers!!!!!

But it is entirely based ON THE AIRY HYPOTHESIS.

Please read.

Page 74 (page 18 of the pdf document)

Lateral variations in ice shell thickness assuming complete Airy compensation of all known topography [up to spherical harmonic degree 8 (Nimmo et al., 2011)].

What was assumed in that document and what was the purpose of the assumption doesn't change the
calculation of the Enceladus' mass based on speed and diameter of it's orbit.

If Enceladus had different mass it would have different orbital parameters around Saturn.
If Saturn had different mass it would have different orbital parameters around the Sun.
And the chain goes on...

The force in KN of gravity on earth far exceeded the centrifugal force created by its rotation, in answer to your water problem, also observation I can see its not.

Curvature, there is curvature over lake Ontario as there is over the the entire globe. Not the lake specifically but any plane or geodetic survey is sufficent to measure the curvature of the earth. Can you explain why you think there isnt a curve?

Let us go to lake Michigan now.

 
Grand Haven Daily Tribune   April 3, 1925

COAST GUARDS SEE MILWAUKEE LIGHTS GLEAM

Captain Wm. J. Preston and Crew See Lights of Milwaukee

and Racine Clearly From Surf Boat

ANSWER TO FLARE

Crew Runs Into Lake in Search For Flashing Torch

Grand Haven Daily Tribune   April 3, 1925

Captain Wm. J. Preston and his U. S. Coast Guard crew at Grand Haven harbor witnessed a strange natural phenomenon last night, when they saw clearly the lights of both Milwaukee and Racine, shining across the lake.  As far as known this is the first time that such a freak condition has prevailed here.

 The phenomena was first noticed at shortly after seven o’clock last night, when the lookout called the keeper’s attention to what seemed to be a light flaring out on the lake.  Captain Preston examined the light, and was of the impression that some ship out in the lake was “torching” for assistance.

Launch Power Boat

   He ordered the big power boat launched and with the crew started on a cruise into the lake to locate, if possible, the cause of the light.  The power boat was headed due west and after running a distance of six or seven miles the light became clearer, but seemed to be but little nearer.  The crew kept on going, however, and at a distance of about ten and twelve miles out, a beautiful panorama of light unfolded before the eyes of the coast guards.

 Captain Preston decided that the flare came from the government lighthouse at Windy Point at Racine.  Being familiar with the Racine lights the keeper was able to identify several of the short lights at Racine, Wis.

Saw Milwaukee Also

   A little further north another set of lights were plainly visible.  Captain Preston knowing the Milwaukee lights well, easily distinguished them and identified them as the Milwaukee lights.  The lights along Juneau Park water front, the illumination of the buildings near the park and the Northwestern Railway station were clearly visible from the Coast Guard boat.  So clearly did the lights stand out that it seemed as though the boat was within a few miles of Milwaukee harbor. 

   Convinced that the phenomenon was a mirage, or a condition due to some peculiarity of the atmosphere, the keeper ordered the boat back to the station.  The lights remained visible for the greater part of the run, and the flare of the Windy Point light house could be seen after the crew reached the station here.


DISTANCE GRAND HAVEN TO MILWAUKEE: OVER 80 MILES (128 KM).

http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/images/twomichigans2a.gif (http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/images/twomichigans2a.gif)


Windy Point Lighthouse:

The lighthouse stands 108 feet (33 m) tall

THE CURVATURE FOR 128 KM IS 321 METERS.

Using the well known formula for the visual obstacle, let us calculate its value:

h = 3 meters BD = 1163 METERS

h = 5 meters BD = 1129 METERS

h = 10 meters BD = 1068 METERS

h = 20 meters BD = 984 METERS

h = 50 meters BD = 827.6 METERS

h = 100 meters BD = 667.6 METERS


No terrestrial refraction formula/looming formula can account for this extraordinary proof that the surface across lake Michigan is flat.



Moreover, as we have seen, the light from Windy Point was continuously observed, during the approach, and during the return to the station:

The power boat was headed due west and after running a distance of six or seven miles the light became clearer, but seemed to be but little nearer.  The crew kept on going, however, and at a distance of about ten and twelve miles out, a beautiful panorama of light unfolded before the eyes of the coast guards.

The keeper ordered the boat back to the station.  The lights remained visible for the greater part of the run, and the flare of the Windy Point light house could be seen after the crew reached the station here.

OK. For the people arguing if rockets wont work in a vacuum, is there any thing an astronaut can do to 'move' in space?

Lets say you are all by yourself not gravitationally bound to anything nearby, so you are completely motionless. The only thing you have on you is your oxygen tank. If one were to pierce it (causing a sudden escape of all the oxygen very quickly) would the astronauts position move at all?
The simple answer is, no. But then again in the situation we are forced to accept about so called space, there would be no direction. No up, down or left to right or right to left..... Nothing.
Basically suspended animation...assuming anything could be in that which obviously....or should be to most....they can't.

Pierce a tank in low pressure and it tries to equalise with the low pressure to make that pressure marginally higher. This would be fine inside a small chamber but in so called space as we are told is a vacuum, the tank would simply lose its gas in super short order.

It's like the opposite of snapping off the sealed nib at the base of a glass thermos flask and listening as the atmosphere under pressure fills that lower pressure inside the thermos in a fraction of a second. It's because there is little resistance other than the walls of the thermos itself.

A  ruptured tank in an extreme low pressure environment would do no work to initiate a spin or movement because it's not releasing its gas against any opposite reaction of gas or resistance of any kind. It simply expands into the vastness of the extreme low pressure.

It would certainly react if it was in a tiny caravan sized evacuation chamber because it would hit resistance of its own gas as it builds up to equalise, so it would likely move a little...but not much, depending on tank size, obviously.

Curvature, there is curvature over lake Ontario as there is over the the entire globe.

There is no curvature whatsoever across lake Ontario.

Lets take all the photographs out of it, millions of debunkings already there.

First thing you need to do is get rid of this concept of the bulge, its a common misconception. There is no bulge because the flat plane you are expecting the bulge to rise from does not exist.

Assuming you are not going to trust GPS I would use a theodolite.

Set up two stations using an assumed datum or tie into the local or geodetic grid depending on the size or nature of the survey.

Theodolite allows you to measure both the horizontal and vertical at the same time.

The measurement on the horizontal plane determines the horizontal distance between the two stations. However, the true horizontal distance is actually curved like the Earth’s surface. So when setting up the instuments, even if they are very close together,  the direction of gravity is different at each point, which means the vertical axes are not parallel to each other.

Vertical distances are measured along the vertical axis to determine the difference in elevation between points. Vertical angles are measured in the vertical plane either above or below the horizontal plane of the theodolite. Zenith angles, are used as a reference for measuring vertical angles, they are defined as 0° directly overhead and 90° at the horizontal plane. There is always some variation in the hundredths or thousandths fraction of seconds, so measurements are taken, back sites and forsites to each station, IE moving the theodolite to each station and measuring multiple times. I usually work to standards where 6-10 measurements of the zenith angles are required. These very small errors are eliminated using a calibrated GPS Surveying Station.

The slope distance is the shortest distance from the instrument to the target, station to station. This distance is the hypotenuse of the horizontal and vertical distances.

If the stations were a km apart the angular differences would show a curvature of 80mm

If there was curvature, what would you expect it to look like?
Something along the lines of inserting the observer’s height and object distance into the curvature calculator .... add some percentage for refraction and this should basically give you a fairly accurate amount of what should be hidden in the far distance.

But of course during the day atmospheric conditions may obscure distant objects, but never should anyone see the full amount of distant buildings (as displayed over lake Ontario) .
No ‘superiour mirage’ or other exotic phenomena can reason away what thousends of people know for a fact.
‘One can see much further under ideal conditions than what should be possible in the current globe model with a curvature drop of appr. 8 inches per mile squared.

If there was curvature, what would you expect it to look like?

Exactly what the following precise formulas imply:

CURVATURE

C = R(1 - cos[s/(2R)]) - angle measured in radians


R = 6378,164 km

s = distance



VISUAL OBSTACLE

(http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n206/dharanis1/Capture_zpswhoewt2o.jpg)


BD = (R + h)/{[2Rh + h2]1/2(sin s/R)(1/R) + cos s/R} - R


BD = visual obstacle

h = altitude of observer


No curvature across the strait of Gibraltar, no ascending slope, no midpoint 3.5 meter visual obstacle, a perfectly flat surface of the water all the way to Africa:

You are still looking for a bulge, it only exists in your mind, try and think in 3 dimensions.

You are a scientist stop cut and pasting photographs you have been posting for years, your threads are the only thing that comes up when you google BD = (R + h)/{[2Rh + h2]1/2(sin s/R)(1/R) + cos s/R} - R  :)

too many variables in photographs

The English Channel: 34 km distance from Cap Gris Nez to Dover, a curvature of some 22.4 meters on a round earth.

The original webpages, as they were posted on flickr.com


The photographers located between Cap Blanc Nez and Cap Gris Nez: we will ascend to 30 meters.

And now the photograph itself: no curvature whatsoever, all the way to the other shoreline, the Dover cliffs seen in their entirety (on a round earth, from 30 meters, we could not see anything under 16.5 meters from the other side), the ships are not part of an ascending/descending slope, no midpoint curvature of 22.4 meters:

If you are located right on the Cap Gris Nez, facing Dover, all you'd see is a huge wall of water (22.4 meters in height), the midpoint curvature.

Not to mention the visual obstacle.

Even if you ascend to 45 meters (maximum height on the French side) it still won't help you.

NO curvature whatsoever across a distance of 34 km.

But you seem not to be convinced.

Then, I will increase the distance to 5,200 km.

JULY 1, 1908 LETTER SENT TO THE LONDON TIMES

http://www.nuforc.org/GNTungus.html

“TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.”

“Sir,--I should be interested in hearing whether others of your readers observed the strange light in the sky which was seen here last night by my sister and myself. I do not know when it first appeared; we saw it between 12 o’clock (midnight) and 12:15 a.m.  It was in the northeast and of a bright flame-colour like the light of sunrise or sunset.  The sky, for some distance above the light, which appeared to be on the horizon, was blue as in the daytime, with bands of light cloud of a pinkish colour floating across it at intervals.  Only the brightest stars could be seen in any part of the sky, though it was an almost cloudless night.  It was possible to read large print indoors, and the hands of the clock in my room were quite distinct.  An hour later, at about 1:30 a.m., the room was quite light, as if it had been day; the light in the sky was then more dispersed and was a fainter yellow.  The whole effect was that of a night in Norway at about this time of year.  I am in the habit of watching the sky, and have noticed the amount of light indoors at different hours of the night several times in the last fortnight.  I have never at any time seen anything the least like this in England, and it would be interesting if any one would explain the cause of so unusual a sight.

Yours faithfully,
Katharine Stephen.
Godmanchester, Huntingdon, July 1.”


Let us remember that the first newspaper report about the explosion itself ONLY appeared on July 2, 1908 in the Sibir periodical.



A report from Berlin in the New York Times of July 3 stated: 'Remarkable lights were observed in the northern heavens on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, the bright diffused white and yellow illumination continuing through the night until it disappeared at dawn...'

On July 5, (1908) a New York Times story from Britain was entitled: 'Like Dawn at Midnight.' '...The northern sky at midnight became light blue, as if the dawn were breaking...people believed that a big fire was raging in the north of London...shortly after midnight, it was possible to read large print indoors...it would be interesting if anyone would explain the cause of so unusual a sight.'


The letter sent by Mrs. Katharine Stephen is absolutely genuine as it includes details NOBODY else knew at the time: not only the precise timing of the explosion itself (7:15 - 7:17 local time, 0:15 - 0:17 London time), BUT ALSO THE DURATION OF THE TRAJECTORY OF THE OBJECT, right before the explosion, a fact uncovered decades later only by the painstaking research of Dr. Felix Zigel, an aerodynamics professor at the Moscow Institute of Aviation.


If the light from the Sun could not reach London due to curvature and/or any light reflection phenomena, then certainly NO LIGHT from an explosion which occurred at some 7 km altitude in the atmosphere could have been seen at all, at the same time, on a spherical earth.


It could not have been caused by either a comet, or an asteroid, or a meteorite.

The precise geomagnetic pulses were observed THREE DAYS BEFORE THE EVENT:

It was found that the pattern of ytterbium’s distribution at Tunguska follows the projection of the “southern” TSB’s path on the ground. Similar shapes have been formed at Tunguska for the surface distribution of lanthanum, lead, silver and manganese (Zhuravlev & Demin, 1976). Only these five elements have patterns of distribution in Tunguska soils and peats that follow the projection of the TSB path on the ground, and only ytterbium follows this path strongly enough to be considered as the most likely main ingredient of the TSB substance.

This is an amazing outcome, one should note. This soft silvery-white rareearth metal, discovered in 1878, is now used mainly for improving the hardness of stainless steel, as well as in making high-power lasers. Definitely, if the chief chemical component of the TSB was ytterbium it hardly could have been a natural space body.

So lets look at the facts

5200km distance from event to observation

basic curvature calculation puts this at a curvature of 2006.89m

Tunguska meteorite exploded at a height of 28k feet or 8534.4m

So from the observers point of view a fireball explosion of the equivalent magnitude of 185 Hiroshima nuclear bombs would be visible at a heaigt of approximately 6527m

Can you take me through why you think you couldn't see it?

Please read:
Quote from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunguska_event
Over the next few days night skies in Asia and Europe were aglow, with contemporaneous reports of photographs being successfully taken at midnight in Sweden and Scotland. It has been theorized that this effect was due to light passing through high-altitude ice particles that had formed at extremely low temperatures—a phenomenon that many years later was produced by space shuttles. In the United States, a Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory program at the Mount Wilson Observatory observed a months-long decrease in atmospheric transparency consistent with an increase in suspended dust particles.

Two questions, which I know will be ignored:

1) Why are you assuming that what was seen was the explosion itself rather than anything else associated with it, such as the incoming object, or fragments or vaporized material from it, the afterglow which lasted for days, etc?

2) What does this have to do with rockets in a vacuum?

Aye hands up on that one.

Assuming the light from the explosion radiated in all directions, it would and indeed was visable.

How does this incident prove FE?

No incoming object.

Local fragments/vaporized material.

The explosion was seen INSTANTANEOUSLY, same second: read the letter sent to the Times.

It has been theorized that this effect was due to light passing through high-altitude ice particles that had formed at extremely low temperatures—a phenomenon that many years later was produced by space shuttles.

You still don't get it.

If the light from the Sun could not reach London due to curvature and/or any light reflection phenomena, then certainly NO LIGHT from an explosion which occurred at some 7 km altitude in the atmosphere could have been seen at all, at the same time, on a spherical earth.

Let us remember the discussion we had here a long time ago...

Not so.  In the right circumstances refraction can continue to refract light indefinitely, parallel to the earth's surface.  If the earth were flat, the refraction would eventually cause the light to be pushed to the ground, but on a curved surface, the refraction continues to refract the light parallel to the earth's surface and for great distances.

To talk about ice crystals, with an explosion at some 7 km in the atmosphere on one side of the globe, and a very clear view of the initial trajectory/flash of the explosion from the other side of the hypothetical globe, means that you have no explanation for the facts involved here.

According to your explanation, we should have a 24 hour a day constant sunlight...this is what you wrote:

In the right circumstances refraction can continue to refract light indefinitely, parallel to the earth's surface.

Certainly the sun's rays of light (official theory) will be parallel to some portion of the surface at some time in the earth's rotation...that is why I invited you to think.

There are still too many variables to make any definitive statements on it.

You certainly haven't demonstrated that an air blast of that magnitude could not have been seen.

So stepping back a step you were using photographs to demonstrate that distant objects can be seen due to lack of curvature, which in my view you did by stating that there was no bulge.

You ignored any questions or positions that showed you that the bulge would not exist.

So looking at the mathematical formula you invented, why dont you run some numbers through it. Surely that would put this to bed once and for all.

It is important to note that the geysers from Enceladus have shut down
No it isn't.
In order for anything about Enceladus to be important to this thread you need to show that the jets should produce a significant effect.
You are yet to even try to do that.
Until you do, nothing about Enceladus will be important at all to this thread.

In FET,
Enceladus, some 20 meters in diameter at most.
Then, if we put these numbers into the thrust equation, with mrf = 1000kg/s, A = 6.25 m2, V = 583m/s, and calculate the mass of an icy hollow discoidal shell with an outer radius of 20 meters and an inner radius of 15 meters, we see that the force developed by the geyser jets is formidable, given the true size of Enceladus.
So good job showing yet another problem for FET. But you seemed to have missed some steps. You didn't bother calculating the mass of the shell. Is that because you know it nails even more nails in FE's coffin? But which size should I use? 20 m in diameter or radius? I'll be nice and use it as a radius, using it as a diameter would be even worse.
This gives us a total mass of ~19 Gg.
That means with the geysers spouting away at 1000 kg/s, the entire hollow shell would disappear in a mere 5 hours.

So yet another nail in the coffin of FE.

Meanwhile, in reality (i.e. with a RE) Enceladus is much larger, and thus there is no problem. The mass flow rate is insignificant compared to the massive mass of Enceladus and no significant effect is produced.

And of course, you yet again run away from the topic and start spouting already refuted garbage.
You or someone else had already brought up that viewing area and had your pathetic lies about it completely destroyed.

If you want to discuss your lack of understanding of how curvature works, do so elsewhere.

Now care to either provide the math, using RE numbers, to show that the jets of Enceladus should have a significant effect on its orbit? Or act like a rational adult and admit it proves nothing about the functioning of rockets in a vacuum due to how insignificant the force is?

But then again in the situation we are forced to accept about so called space, there would be no direction. No up, down or left to right or right to left..... Nothing.
Basically suspended animation...assuming anything could be in that which obviously....or should be to most....they can't.
There is still direction, the reference used is often just arbitrary, that is quite different to direction not existing.
More importantly, this is nothing like suspended animation at all. There is literally no link to that.

Pierce a tank in low pressure and it tries to equalise with the low pressure to make that pressure marginally higher.
No, it is equalising, until the pressure is equal. This is fine inside a small chamber, or in the vast vacuum of space.
Putting it in a vacuum won't magically suck all the air out of the tank in an instant. It will still take time to escape.

It's like the opposite of snapping off the sealed nib at the base of a glass thermos flask and listening as the atmosphere under pressure fills that lower pressure inside the thermos in a fraction of a second.
Because the thermos typically won't contain a perfect vacuum, there is very little volume and the pressure differential is quite small meaning very little gas actually needs to get in.

Conversely for an oxygen tank in the vacuum of space, there is much larger pressure differential with the oxygen tank being much larger and having much more gas in it, meaning it will take a lot longer for it to all escape.

it's not releasing its gas against any opposite reaction of gas or resistance of any kind.
The gas has mass, that is all the resistance it needs.
It can't just magically accelerate to expand, it needs a force provided, which in turn demands a reactionary force which will push the tank away.
It is quite simple physics.

You have already had this rejection of physics of yours pointed out and shown how horribly inconsistent you are.

If you think it is fine for the gas to just magically accelerate without any force, then why can't the oxygen tank just magically accelerate without any force?

Perhaps you can answer the question jamas has been avoiding:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the tank to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force? (And if so, why can't the tank and person do so?)
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied without the corresponding reactionary force? (And if so, why can't the tank and person do so?)
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

1. The earliest reliably documented mention of the spherical Earth concept dates from around the 6th century BC when it appeared in ancient Greek philosophy] but remained a matter of speculation until the 3rd century BC, when Hellenistic astronomy established the spherical shape of the Earth as a physical given. The paradigm was gradually adopted throughout the Old World during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. A practical demonstration of Earth's sphericity was achieved by Ferdinand Magellan and Juan Sebastián Elcano's expedition's circumnavigation (1519–1522).

2. Playing Piano On A Flat Plain :

Jamie Courtereille +odiupicku Problem with your curving the lines. If your lines are straight and then you curve them, you are shortening the distance.
The longer the line the greater the curve, more so if you are attempting to place a false fact that the distances do not line up.
If New York to Cape town is not lining up but the first 4 are, the problem is not on a Flat Earth or a curve Earth.
The problem is that most maps do not have land masses accurately sized to real measurements.
The maps most people use have the US as some gigantic land mass and Africa as some small continent that never line up accurately.?

BONUS ARGUMENT

D During the full moon the sun and the moon are always in opposition, and that is the fact -- This proof is very simple and irrefutable, unless someone is able to prove that there are two suns in the sky...While the sun sets SOUTH of Lemaire channel (that is to say SOUTH of Cape Horn), the same sun in the same time is visible almost directly NORTH of South West Australia and almost directly SOUTH of this area : Japan/Korea/China... So it is NOON in Japan and Australia and THE MIDNIGHT SUN is visible for the observer in Lemaire channel which is directly SOUTH of Cape Horn...So, an observer who is positioned in Lemaire channel is able to see the setting sun by looking straight to the south, and that same sun is visible for the observers in Korea and China who are looking also towards south, and that same sun is visible for the observer in Australia who is looking towards North!!! Do you see why is this impossible to happen on the flat earth??? On a flat earth the full moon would be between an observer in Lemaire channel and the setting sun, which means that an observer in Lemarie channel would have to watch towards NORTH in order to see the sun which would be at the double distance than the full moon, however observer is seeing the full moon by looking to the NORTH, and the setting MIDNIGHT sun is visible in the SOUTH direction!!! There is simply no way around this PROOF!!!

EXLANATION : -Using these numbers, 8650 m for the photographer, 8463 m for Makalu, the photograph is taken from 187 m higher elevation than the summit of Makalu, so he has to be looking down toward the of top of Makalu from there, right? The top of that cloud deck seems about the same elevation (although this can fool you sometimes), and the top of Makalu is about even with the horizon formed by the cloud deck, so the horizon has to be below level. You're looking down at Makalu's summit, therefore you're looking down to the horizon, right? -So the summit of Kanchenjunga should appear slightly higher than Makalu, which it does. Now, apply this to our case and you will get the same result :

MT ADAMS : 3743 m - 12281 ft
Mt Rainier - Mt Adams from the summit of Mt Hood :

The picture above demonstrates that even when we compare apparent heights of Mt Adams vs Mt Rainier ((100 miles distance between Mt Hood & Mt Rainier and 58 miles distance between Mt Hood & Mt Adams)) as viewed from the summit of Mt Hood (3402m = 11161 ft), Mt Adams (3743 m - 12281 ft) looks higher than Mt Rainier (4392 m - 14409 ft), that is to say : the peak of Mt Rainier looks lower at the horizon than the peak of Mt Adams. So, no marvel that at the distance of 190 miles (between South Sister Mountain and Mt Rainier) Mt Rainier looks so much tinier and lower at the horizon in comparison with Mt Adams (which is 145,6 miles distant from the observer at South Sister Mountain), let alone how tiny Mt Rainier looks in comparison with Mt Hood (87,8 miles distant from the camera positioned on South Sister Mountain), or in comparison with Mt Jefferson (which is only 39,4 miles distant from the South Sister Mountain), and so no marvel that Mt Jefferson which is lowest of all observed mountains looks highest than all other three mountains, since Mt Jefferson is the closest mountain to the observer who stands at South Sister Mountain...

4. This is one truthful comment that i have received below one of my flat-earth videos (at the time when i was still a flat-earth believer) :
I took your message seriously and I went back and this time I thoroughly did my homework, utilizing topographic maps and even Spanish-language websites for hiking tours of Mallorca, to get the information I needed. This took me about 3 hours. :-)

I selected Puig Caragoler and Puig Roig since they were the same distance from the photographer, and had well-defined peaks, and found the distance between them. Studying the topography, I found that there was a saddle between them that is over 600 meters tall, is below the horizon in the original photo. Thus over 600 m is being obscured. I measured the heights of the two peaks in pixels, as well as the distance between them, and compared that to the actual heights of the peaks, and how tall they should be in pixels. I thus discovered how much of each mountain was hidden by curvature, and made this image:

(https://i.postimg.cc/V6C3M0Dq/FLAT-MAP-PUIG.jpg)

I then went to spherical geometry and measured the distance to the horizon for an elevated observer, and subtracted that distance from the total distance to the mountains, and then used that to determine the expected amount of mountain that would theoretically be obscured, mathematically.

The photo shows 672 meters of mountains hidden. Pure spherical geometry (no refraction) predicts that 886 meters would be hidden. Not too bad! Of course refraction in the real world does exist, so that can account for us being able to see slightly further than we should be able to mathematically. Cheers! :-)?

That's because if it was and it could be proven the whole corrupt system running the world would collapse. To my disappointment I keep finding what appears to be curvature but the  truth is that is what I'm finding. I've actually got another test in the can and will be uploading that one soon as well. It is called "The Floating Levels Test" and it shows the surface of a lake to be convex or at least it clearly appears that way.

How about this (simple challenge) : If the earth were flat, then the flat earth map SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY EASY to make. Many have tried already, and all of them terribly failed. How hard is to infer (correctly) why no one can draw functional flat earth map WITH ABSOLUTE EASINESS on the flat sheet of paper??? If the earth is flat and flat sheet of paper is also flat all you have to do (to deal with) is to scale down the real face of the earth, isn't that so??? So, why don't you try to draw functional flat earth map? Why??? I'll tell you why : because it is absolutely impossible, that's why!

I have already provided the references relating vibrating gyroscopes to the detection of rotation (ether drift or axial rotation of Earth).

Vibrating gyroscopes can be used to detect the ether drift (FET, or earth rotation, RET):

http://www.ipgp.fr/~crawford/2017_EuroOBS_workshop/Resources/Robert%202014.pdf

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5464685/

Here is the Coriolis effect formula derived for light beams, the very same formula obtained by Michelson in 1904:

https://www.ias.ac.in/article/fulltext/pram/087/05/0071

Now, Michelson went even further and also derived THE ORBITAL CORIOLIS EFFECT in the 1904 paper:

dto = 4AvosinΦ/Rc2 = 4AΩosinΦ/c2

R = 150,000,000 km and A = Lh

(the sun's declination term is omitted since it is equal to 1 at the equinox)

Let us remember that the Cassini spacecraft is supposed to detect the Shapiro delay:

https://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0604060v3.pdf

It can also detect the Pioneer anomaly:

https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/0807/0807.1088.pdf

The Pioneer anomaly is on the order of O(10-13).


The flux of gravitons paradox is very real.

It is a total defiance of the law of conservation of energy.

Each and every time a satellite of Jupiter or Saturn (for better vizualization purpose) finds itself in the shadow of the main planet, the flux of gravitons from the Sun IS MUCH LOWER.

Here is the FLUX OF GRAVITONS PARADOX:

How a three body system cannot function given the attractive gravity scenario - for a better visualization, use Sun - Jupiter - Io

"OBJECTIVE: Demonstrate that this interchange of gravitational particles again will seem to result in violations of conservation of energy. We will do this by demonstrating that, if matter is indeed influenced by gravitational particles, then, even under normal orbital conditions, gravity should decrease, due to a gravitational shadowing effect. This shadowing effect would violate conservation of energy.

Thought Experiment: IMAGINE THAT GRAVITONS BEHAVE LIKE PHOTONS

(for descriptive purposes only)

To better visualize how this partial gravitational influence might be encountered, let us describe gravity and gravitational interaction in terms of light, so that:

If gravitons exist, violations of the Law of Conservation of Energy will almost certainly occur.

Brilliance of light = gravitational attraction = (emission of gravitons)

Decreasing Transparency = Increasing Density and Mass

In this thought experiment, we will specify one sun, one earth and one moon. Each will be partially luminous, to simulate their 'output' of gravitons, and each will also be partially opaque, to indicate their 'capturing-of' or their 'reception-of' gravitons. We would then have the following description of the system.

In this imaginary system, the moon orbits the earth, and the earth-moon pair orbits the sun. Since glow will simulate gravity emitted, we could describe this sun as glowing brighter that this earth, and this earth as glowing brighter than the moon.

In addition, the moon would be more transparent than the earth, and the earth would be less transparent than the sun. This would simulate the increasing 'interception' of gravity, with an increase of both the density and mass from the moon, to the earth then to the sun in our imaginary example.

In this example, the light from the sun would 'attract' the earth and the moon (simulating the pull of gravity). The earth would glow less brilliantly than the sun, but still brighter than the moon. The moon would be attracted to both the earth and the sun, but would orbit the earth. The earth moon pair would then orbit the sun together.

In this example, the moon would spend more time in the earth's shadow, and the earth's shadow would be comparatively darker than the moon's shadow. Since the moon would be attracted to the sun only by the light from the sun, and the light emitted by the earth with the sun shining through the less transparent earth would be less than the light emitted by the sun directly, the moon would gain some amount of orbital distance from the sun every time the moon 'hid' in the earth's shadow.

This gain of gravitational energy, simulated in this example with light and transparency, {for visual purposes only}, would violate conservation of energy. If gravitons exist, they must self-condradictingly pass through nearer masses unaffected, so as not to decrease gravity for masses at a further distance, while still interacting with those closer masses at the same time.

Otherwise, we are left with the choice that masses at a distance will randomly gain some gravitational potential energy depending on whether randomly distributed nearer masses create a gravitational 'shadow' effect. We are once again led to the conclusion that gravitons, if they exist, must create violations of conservation of energy. This is hardly a reliable theoretical endorsement of gravitons, when conservation of energy must fall by the wayside in order to allow gravitons to exist. A much more logical conclusion is again, gravitons do not exist, and cannot exist. Some other method of explaining gravitational interactions must be needed."


The significance of these facts is that now we find ourselves in the FE context, where Enceladus has just some 20 meters in diameter, and no longer have to debate anything pertaining to the RE hypothesis, since now we know that Cassini never orbited Saturn and that the RE cannot explain the flux of gravitons paradox.


The source of energy for the jets is EXTERIOR, namely the ether wave interaction between Saturn and Enceladus, and between the Sun and Saturn.

Plasma Flux Transfer Events between Saturn and the Sun

A twisted magnetic field structure, previously never seen before at Saturn, has now been detected for the first time ... When the Sun’s magnetic field interacts with the Earth’s magnetic field (the magnetosphere), a complex process occurs called magnetic reconnection which can twist the field into a helical shape. These twisted helically structured magnetic fields are called flux ropes or “flux transfer events” (FTEs) and are observed at Earth and even more commonly at Mercury ...

https://web.archive.org/web/20180512121552/https://www.ucl.ac.uk/mathematical-physical-sciences/images/news/Saturn_3D_final6.jpg

(https://image.ibb.co/doucgo/st.jpg)

Therefore, there is continuous stream/flux of ether propagating from Saturn to Enceladus.

Here is the best reference regarding the transmutation of matter at low temperatures:

https://web.archive.org/web/20070211015251/http://itis.volta.alessandria.it/episteme/ep4/ep4alchem.htm (Berzelius, Vogel, Borghi, Kervran)

Personally I believe that the geysers are actually electric arcs; however, since we are debating rocktes in vacuum, we can assume that the jets consist of water vapor.

If the Cassini mission is fake, then the pictures must be fake as well, we don't know if Enceladus has Geysers, or not, therefore you have no argument.

You mean have already repeatedly avoided the topic because you know you can't defend your claims.

Once again nothing you have said has any relavence to rockets working in a vacuum.
None of it supports your arguments regarding rockets working in a vacuum.

Now can you do the math to show that there should be a significant effect, or admit that it should produce a significant effect?

As i said earlier[/b][/u] :
Even if it couldn't move a moon out of it's orbit around Saturn, it would certainly cause very substantial effect to the rate (speed) of it's rotation :


There is no appreciable change in the relative rotation between space and Earth. It is always 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds.
This is precisely why the geocentric system is more stable for us earthlings, whereas [color=purple]Venus has changed its rotation by 6 minutes over the years it has been studied[/color].

THE QUESTION No 1 :

Geokinetics is not the best way to understand the physics. In fact, the geocentric
system makes more sense. For example, in the geokinetic system, the Earth has to rotate
exactly 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds to keep sidereal time. How can it do so when so
many  inertial  forces  (e.g., earthquakes,  tsunamis,  volcanoes, etc.) are  impeding  its  rotation?

Venus, which does rotate, has slowed its rate by 6 minutes in the last few years. 
Likewise,  in  the geokinetic system, the Earth has  to revolve around the sun exactly  in 365.25
days. How does it do so in the face of the inertial forces it undergoes internally, as well as the
cosmic forces and planetary perturbations it incurs externally?


Geocentrism has a much better explanation. The sidereal rate can stay exactly as it is
due to the tremendous momentum that a massive rotating universe will produce. Like a giant  flywheel,
the universe keeps  turning at the same rate year after year, and nothing is able to slow it down.
(Later we will address the claims that the Earth has slowed its rotation).

As for Newton and Einstein, geocentrism can use both a rotating Earth in a fixed universe
or a fixed Earth in a rotating universe, if desired, since all we need to do is invert the equations, as Einstein himself did.

In March 2007, it was found that the variation of radio emissions from the planet did not match Saturn's rotation rate. This variance may be caused by geyser activity on Saturn's moon Enceladus. The water vapor emitted into Saturn's orbit by this activity becomes charged and creates a drag upon Saturn's magnetic field, slowing its rotation slightly relative to the rotation of the planet.

THE QUESTION No 2 :

If variations in Saturn's rotation rate can be assigned (at least theoretically) to geyser activity of Enceladus, what consequence should we expect (from the same cause - geyser activity) to the rate of rotation of Enceladus itself??? Extreme consequences???

Wiki quote :

Enceladus is tidally locked with Saturn, keeping the same face toward the planet. It completes one orbit every 32.9 hours within the densest part of Saturn's E Ring.

THE QUESTION No 3 :

If variations in Saturn's rotation rate can be assigned (at least theoretically) to geyser activity of Enceladus, and if it is more than reasonably to assume that geyser activity would have extreme consequences to the rate of rotation of Enceladus itself, isn't it more than reasonably to assume that Enceladus in these circumstances couldn't remain tidally locked with Saturn due to it's changed rate of rotation?[/quote]

As I noted earlier, there is no appreciable change in the relative rotation between
space and Earth.  It  is always 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds. This is precisely why the
geocentric system is more stable for us earthlings, whereas Venus has changed its rotation by
6 minutes over the years it has been studied.
   
Invariably,  when  major  earthquakes  or  tsunamis  occur  we  are  inundated  with  newspaper
articles declaring that the Earth, as a result of the force coming from these catastrophes, was
slowed  in  its  rotation  rate  and/or  its  axis moved.  The  rotation rate is said to decrease by
microseconds and the axial tilt by inches. The 2011 tsunami that hit Japan produced numerous
articles. This one is from the New York Times:
 
The magnitude-8.9 earthquake  that struck northern  Japan on Friday not only violently shook
the ground and generated a devastating tsunami, it also moved the coastline and changed the
balance of the planet.

...Meanwhile,  NASA  scientists  calculated  that  the  redistribution  of mass  by  the  earthquake
might have shortened the day by a couple of millionths of a second and tilted the Earth’s axis
slightly. On a  larger  scale,  the unbuckling and  shifting moved  the planet’s mass, on average,
closer to its center, and just as a figure skater who spins faster when drawing the arms closer,
the Earth’s rotation speeds up.

Richard S. Gross, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, calculated that the length of the day
was shortened by 1.8 millionths of a second.

The earthquake  also  shifted  the  so-called  figure  axis of  the  Earth, which is the axis that the
Earth’s mass is balanced around. Dr. Gross said his calculations indicated a shift of 6.5 inches in
where the figure axis intersects the surface of the planet. That figure axis is near, but does not
quite align with, the rotational axis that the Earth spins around.
 
Earlier  great  earthquakes  also  changed  the  axis  and  shortened  the  day.  The magnitude-8.8
earthquake in Chile last year shortened the day by 1.26 millionths of a second and moved the
axis by about  three  inches, while  the Sumatra earthquake  in 2004  shortened  the day by 6.8
millionths of a second, Dr. Gross said.

From the Jet Propulsion Laboratory report, Gross and Chao added more:

Dr. Richard Gross of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., and Dr. Benjamin Fong
Chao, of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., said all earthquakes have some
affect on Earth’s rotation. It’s just they are usually barely noticeable.
 
“Any worldly event that involves the movement of mass affects the  Earth’s  rotation,  from
seasonal  weather  down  to  driving  a  car,”  Chao  said.  Gross  and  Chao  have  been  routinely
calculating earthquakes’ effects  in changing the Earth’s rotation  in both  length-of-day as well
as changes in Earth’s gravitational field. They also study changes in polar motion that is shifting
the North Pole. The “mean North pole” was shifted by about 2.5  centimeters  (1  inch)  in  the
direction of 145 degrees East Longitude. This shift east is continuing a long-term seismic trend
identified in previous studies.

All  of  this  sounds  very  technical  and  convincing,  but we  shall  go  through  it  line  by  line  to
determine  its  validity.  First,  if we  add  up  all  the  earthquakes  occurring  on  an  annual  basis,
there  are  on  average  1,450,000  per  year.  About  90%  are  in  the  2 – 2.9 Rictor scale range;
about 9% in the 3 to 3.9 range; and the rest between the 4 to 9.

 Let’s say for the sake of argument about 25,000 significant earthquakes occur per year that affect
the Earth’s rotation and figure axis the way Dr. Gross claims. Let’s say we take the estimates back
10,000 years to 8000 BC.  That means 250 million noticeable earthquakes occurred  since 8000 BC.

Let’s also assume,  based  on  present  data,  that  Earth’s  rotation  changes  by 0.5 microseconds for
significant earthquakes. This means the Earth would have changed its rotation by 125 seconds
or  2.08 minutes  since  8000  BC.  If we  go  beyond  8000  BC  to  108,000  BC, we  now  have  the
rotation  of  the  Earth  decreased  by  20.8 minutes, which  yields  a  rotation  of  23  hours,  36.2
minutes.  If we use 1 million years,  it  lessens the rotation by about 200 minutes.  If 10 million:
2000  minutes.  If  100  million:  20,000  minutes.  If  200  million,  then  40,000  minutes,  which
means  the  Earth  would  have  been  rotating  in  about  12  hours.  Anything  beyond  86,400
minutes, the Earth will rotate once every second or less. If we use 4.5 billion years  (which  is
the  time modern science  says  the Earth has been  in existence),  the Earth would be spinning
about 10 times every second.


So, what we can conclude from all this? We can conclude that NASA is full of shit, that all space missions are frauds, and that if these Enceladus story has some basis in reality (if all these informations are real, that is to say : acquired by let's say big radio telescopes installed here on Earth, instead by Cassini space-hoax-craft), then we can take Sandokhan's line of reasoning against "rocket can fly in space" myth, as valid argument!

However, our position doesn't depend on Sandokhan's argument, we already provided more than enough evidence against "rocket can fly in space" stupidity...

Yes, as you SAID.
Not as you demonstrated or proved or anything of the like.
You just baselessly asserted it.
How about you try proving it?
Do the math. Show it should have a significant effect.

And while you are at it, ANSWER THE QUESTION:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force? (And if so, why can't the rocket do so?)
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied without the corresponding reactionary force? (And if so, why can't the rocket do so?)
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Venus, which does rotate, has slowed its rate by 6 minutes in the last few years. 

Venus' 6 Minutes slowdown was measured by two NASA spacecraft flying close to Venus.  How can you use data from NASA missions to make your argument and at the same time deny the missions took place?

Or have you measure the slow down in Venus rotation yourself?

I have already provided the references relating vibrating gyroscopes to the detection of rotation (ether drift or axial rotation of Earth).
Vibrating gyroscopes can be used to detect the ether drift (FET, or earth rotation, RET):
http://www.ipgp.fr/~crawford/2017_EuroOBS_workshop/Resources/Robert%202014.pdf

Agreed, and they are Coriolis vibratory gyroscopes,

Quote from: sandokhan
Here is the Coriolis effect formula derived for light beams, the very same formula obtained by Michelson in 1904:
Spinning Earth and its Coriolis effect on the circuital light beams: Verification of the special relativity theory by SANKAR HAJRA (https://www.ias.ac.in/article/fulltext/pram/087/05/0071)
Please note a few things about that paper:
Quote from: sandokhan
Now, Michelson went even further and also derived THE ORBITAL CORIOLIS EFFECT in the 1904 paper:
LMFTFY: "Now, Michelson went even further and also derived THE ORBITAL SAGNAC DELAY in the 1904 paper:".

Quote from: sandokhan
dto = 4AvosinΦ/Rc2 = 4AΩosinΦ/c2
R = 150,000,000 km and A = Lh
(the sun's declination term is omitted since it is equal to 1 at the equinox)
And Michelson went on to show that observing that Orbital Sagnac delay without a monstrous loop was impossible with their technology.

Quote from: sandokhan
Let us remember that the Cassini spacecraft is supposed to detect the Shapiro delay:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0604060v3.pdf
OK, but why is that an issue?

Quote from: sandokhan
It can also detect the Pioneer anomaly:
https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/0807/0807.1088.pdf
The Pioneer anomaly is on the order of O(10-13).
But, as you have been told before, the is no longer any "Pioneer anomaly". It never was an "anomaly", simply something overlooked in the design of the Pioneer spacecraft.

Quote from: sandokhan
The flux of gravitons paradox is very real.
The is no "flux of gravitons paradox" because, no one other you claims that gravitational fields are caused by any "flux of gravitons".

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82968.0

Now, you are at it yet again.

You did not post anything of substance.

This is the formula derived by G. Sagnac:

4AΩ/c^2.


THIS IS THE CORIOLIS EFFECT FORMULA.

Here is the precise proof, peer-reviewed in an IOP article.

THIS IS AN IOP ARTICLE, one of the most comprehensive papers on the Sagnac effect ever published.

Here is reference #27:

(https://image.ibb.co/eCKok9/sil3.jpg)


http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/Silberstein.pdf

The formula derived by Dr. Silberstein, peer reviewed in the IOP article, and described by the author as the "effect of the Coriolis forces" is this:

dt = 4ωA/c^2


Now, here is a direct derivation of the same formula using only the Coriolis force:

https://www.ias.ac.in/article/fulltext/pram/087/05/0071

A beautiful direct derivation using undergraduate level mathematics, very simple.

THE FINAL FORMULA DERIVED BY S. HAJRA IS THIS:

dt = 4ωA/c^2

He derived this formula using ONLY the Coriolis force as a guide.


Same formula as that derived by Sagnac and by Silberstein.


So, you are out of luck.

The Coriolis force is exactly as SANKAR HAJRA shows in (2) and that is not the expression that Michelson, Sagnac and Silberstein derived!

But it is the VERY SAME EXPRESSION.

Again, here is the final formula derived by S. Hajra:

EQUATION 12:

dt = 4ωA/c^2

He even SPECIFIES that it is the VERY SAME equation derived by both Sagnac and Silberstein.

Take a look at the title of the section 4, mentioned on page 3 of 5:

Sagnac effect? No, it is Coriolis effect

If you read Silberstein correctly you will find that he shows that the Coriolis effect on the beams is so small that it could never be measured.
Hence his final result does not depend on the Coriolis effect in the slightest,  so get that silly notion out if your head!

But you use as a reference someone who doesn't doubt the Sagnac effect in the slightest to prove that it's not the Sagnac effect.
He did not say that Silberstein derived the Coriolis effect at all! He simply suggested that Silberstein used the Coriolis effect in his derivation of the Sagnac effect. I do wish you could learn to understand what is written and not cherry-pick individual words!

And read other papers that he wrote. Gregorii Malykin understands the Sagnac far better than you ever will!

Look at this!
By the way, you do remember the book you referred to in your vain attempt to prove that Silberstein derived the Coriolis effect and not the Sagnac effect?
This book: Ring Interferometry, De Grigorii B. Malykin, Vera I. Pozdnyakova (https://www.amazon.com/Interferometry-Gruyter-Studies-Mathematical-Physics-ebook/dp/B07G4MMRWK)

Well, De Grigorii B. Malykin also wrote a paper in Russian, The Sagnac effect: correct and incorrect explanations, G. B. Malykin (http://m.mathnet.ru/php/archive.phtml?wshow=paper&jrnid=ufn&paperid=1825&option_lang=eng), and look what the abstract says:
Quote from: G. B. Malykin
The Sagnac effect: correct and incorrect explanations

Abstract: Different explanations for the Sagnac effect are discussed. It is shown that this effect is a consequence of the relativistic law of velocity composition and that it can also be explained adequately within the framework of general relativity. When certain restrictions on the rotational velocity are imposed, the Sagnac effect can be attributed to the difference in the time dilation (or phase change) of material particle wave functions in the scalar (or correspondingly vector) gravitational potential of the inertial forces in a rotating reference system for counterpropagating waves. It is also shown that all the nonrelativistic interpretations of the Sagnac effect, which are unfortunately sometimes found in scientific papers, monographs and textbooks, are wrong in principle, even though the results they yield are accurate up to relativistic corrections in some special cases.   
Luckily the abstract is in English.
Yes, YOUR expert states quite clearly that the"Sagnac effect" "can also be explained adequately within the framework of general relativity" and that "the nonrelativistic interpretations of the Sagnac effect" "are wrong".

Your ramblings are becoming more and more bizarre with every message.

Here is the final equation published by S. Hejra:

dt = 4ωA/c^2

https://www.ias.ac.in/article/fulltext/pram/087/05/0071

It is solely derived using the CORIOLIS FORCE as a guide.

It is the very same equation derived by Dr. Silberstein:

dt = 4ωA/c^2

http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/Silberstein.pdf


If you read Silberstein correctly you will find that he shows that the Coriolis effect on the beams is so small that it could never be measured.

You tried this trick before, using two SEPARATE EQUATIONS USING DIFFERENT PRINCIPLES, which were published on the same page in Dr. Silberstein's article.

I debunked your childish attempt right here:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82968.msg2198345#msg2198345

He simply suggested that Silberstein used the Coriolis effect in his derivation of the Sagnac effect.

Completely wrong.

NO SUGGESTION AT ALL.

He was describing a FACT, well-known by the peer reviewers at IOP.

Does this statement look like a "suggestion" to you?

And if not, why are you resorting to such desperate and despicable tactics?


And read other papers that he wrote. Gregorii Malykin understands the Sagnac far better than you ever will!

Malykin could NOT derive the GLOBAL SAGNAC EFFECT.

But I could, here it is in all its splendour:

This is the TOP formula in all of physics, not just light interferometry: it was derived by me, not Malykin.


It is called the Sagnac  effect because it is the expressionew use by Sagnac!


You tried this BS before.

It was debunked right here:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82968.msg2198273#msg2198273

Again, this is the CORIOLIS EFFECT FORMULA.

Here is the derivation of this formula using ONLY THE CORIOLIS FORCE as a guide:

You were not able to prove anything other than your cognitive dissonance.

Here is the thread, a total demolition of your most cherished beliefs:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=79637.0

A total victory for FE, and at the same time, a total confirmation of the correctness of my formula, the experiment carried out by Dr. Yeh, published in the best known optical journal in the world also confirms it 100%.

So, you have no idea what you are talking about.

Make no mistake about it, you got totally defeated in that thread, each and every page.

Apart from the fact your derivation of the formula to link Sagnac to Coriolis doesnt work.

The errors spring from your interpretation of the Dr Yeh experiment.

If your formula is as flawless as you claim, submit it for peer review, and shut everyone up.

Your ramblings are becoming more and more bizarre with every message.

Here is the final equation published by S. Hejra:

dt = 4ωA/c^2
https://www.ias.ac.in/article/fulltext/pram/087/05/0071
It is solely derived using the CORIOLIS FORCE as a guide.
It was derived using the Coriolis force and I believe that is exactly what I said!

Quote from: sandokhan
It is the very same equation derived by Dr. Silberstein:

dt = 4ωA/c^2
http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/Silberstein.pdf
Sure and your Conspiracy of Light site also calls it the Sagnac effect.
Look at this The Michelson-Gale Experiment by Doug Marett (2010) (http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/Michelson-Gale.html)

Read this again!
Look at this from what appears to be the source of your diagram:
Quote from: Doug Marett
Conspiracy of Light, The Michelson-Gale Experiment (http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/Michelson-Gale.html)
In refining his argument, he proposed that it was not necessary for the light to go all the way around the globe - since there should be a velocity difference for any closed path rotating on the surface of the earth. He presented the following equation to calculate the time difference expected, using the shift in the interference fringes when the two beams overlap at the detector as a measure of the time difference:
Fig.1:
(http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/MangG1.jpg)
where:  Vo = the tangential velocity of the earth's rotation at the equator (465m/s)
              A = the area of the circular path
              R = the radius of the earth (6371000 m)
              c = speed of light (3E8 m/s)
              f = the latitude in degrees where the experiment is conducted.
              l = wavelength of the light
And those 2's should be 4's because even Michelson didn't initially get it quite right and it was corrected by Silberstein:
Quote from: Doug Marett
   The experiment remained in abeyance for several years, until Silberstein published a paper in 1921 on the theory of light propagation in rotating systems [2]. In this article, Silberstein discusses Michelson's proposed experiment and through calculations of his own demonstrated that the time difference expected in such an experiment would be double what Michelson suggested.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
After taking all these factors into account, the expected fringe shift becomes:
(http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/MandG4.jpg)

which is the most common expression for the fringe shift due to a Sagnac interferometer in use today. In returning to the latitude effect, this is best described with the aid of a diagram  (figure 2 below):
Fig.2:
(http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale/Sagnac_earth.jpg)
The proposed experiment of Michelson should then be treated as a Sagnac interferometer with its axis of spin  (herein referred to as the z axis)  oriented vertically with respect to the earth's surface. If the interferometer is at the North pole, it experiences the full earth's rotation of 15 degrees per hour. However, if it is at the equator, the z-axis is perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the earth, and thus the device does not experience a rotation at all along its sensitive axis. If the device is at 45 deg. latitude, then it experiences an intermediate rotation rate of  ω.sin(45).

https://www.ias.ac.in/article/fulltext/pram/087/05/0071
And it would seem that you and he are the only ones calling it Coriolis but even he quotes the Coriolis force as in here:
Note that SANKAR HAJRA is simply using the Coriolis force to calculate the deviation in the light paths. This is obvious from his Eqn (1) below where explicitly gives the expression for the Coriolis force.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/x33k0stjwveiq1d/Spinning%20Earth%20and%20its%20Coriolis%20effect%20.%20.%20.%20.%20.%20.%20.%20.%20_by%20SANKAR%20HAJRA%20Eqn%202.png?dl=1)

Ok so higher level physics is not my bag, I'm more applied maths.

When discussing curvature of the earth you produced a formula based on pythagoras to calculate, a bulge you seem to think would exist on a sphere.

You even supplied a diagram, the formula calculates point C as the bulge, except you have placed point C on the horizon rather than where you predicted the bulge.

So when you run any numbers through your formula it creates a bulge on the horizon which nobody observes or hypothesises.

I have asked you a number of times to run the numbers through your equation and you have refused.

I decided to check myself and googled your formula and lo and behold only you come up in the searches.

Bobby Shafto pointed out the exact same issue in October 2018 on the other site.

You have posted this a number of times.

So with the sagnac and Coriolis formula I did the same, googled your formula and only you come up.

However, the only places your threads are not closed are on FE sites. The wider physics community question the elements you have lifted from Dr Yeh. You respond with wall of text, quoting and sometimes misquoting peer reviewed texts, but slipping in the odd FES link at the end, much like you do here, quoting yourself is not proof positive. When you refuse to answer your thread is closed.

As ever all I ask is that you run the numbers or submit your find for peer review.

That's not a troll

Prove your formula and I will be the first to congratulate you.

http://galileowaswrong.com/

All the RE have to do is claim that the formula published by Michelson is the SAGNAC EFFECT formula, which proves rotation. If any geocentrist does not agree, the RE will kindly state: "Show us the correct formula then".

That is why both the GE and the FE are helpless when confronted with this argument.

Why does your expression for the Sagnac differ from that of Sagnac, Michelson, Silverstone, Mathpages and the "General relativistic Sagnac formula revised by Maraner and Zendri".
The latter does give a solution for a Sagnac device with the centre-of-rotation far from the loop see:

As i said earlier[/b] :
Even if it couldn't move a moon out of it's orbit around Saturn, it would certainly cause very substantial effect to the rate (speed) of it's rotation :


There is no appreciable change in the relative rotation between space and Earth. It is always 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds.
This is precisely why the geocentric system is more stable for us earthlings, whereas [color=purple]Venus has changed its rotation by 6 minutes over the years it has been studied[/color].

THE QUESTION No 1 :

Geokinetics is not the best way to understand the physics. In fact, the geocentric
system makes more sense. For example, in the geokinetic system, the Earth has to rotate
exactly 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds to keep sidereal time. How can it do so when so
many  inertial  forces  (e.g., earthquakes,  tsunamis,  volcanoes, etc.) are  impeding  its  rotation?

Venus, which does rotate, has slowed its rate by 6 minutes in the last few years. 
Likewise,  in  the geokinetic system, the Earth has  to revolve around the sun exactly  in 365.25
days. How does it do so in the face of the inertial forces it undergoes internally, as well as the
cosmic forces and planetary perturbations it incurs externally?


Geocentrism has a much better explanation. The sidereal rate can stay exactly as it is
due to the tremendous momentum that a massive rotating universe will produce. Like a giant  flywheel,
the universe keeps  turning at the same rate year after year, and nothing is able to slow it down.
(Later we will address the claims that the Earth has slowed its rotation).

As for Newton and Einstein, geocentrism can use both a rotating Earth in a fixed universe
or a fixed Earth in a rotating universe, if desired, since all we need to do is invert the equations, as Einstein himself did.

In March 2007, it was found that the variation of radio emissions from the planet did not match Saturn's rotation rate. This variance may be caused by geyser activity on Saturn's moon Enceladus. The water vapor emitted into Saturn's orbit by this activity becomes charged and creates a drag upon Saturn's magnetic field, slowing its rotation slightly relative to the rotation of the planet.

THE QUESTION No 2 :

If variations in Saturn's rotation rate can be assigned (at least theoretically) to geyser activity of Enceladus, what consequence should we expect (from the same cause - geyser activity) to the rate of rotation of Enceladus itself??? Extreme consequences???

Wiki quote :

Enceladus is tidally locked with Saturn, keeping the same face toward the planet. It completes one orbit every 32.9 hours within the densest part of Saturn's E Ring.

THE QUESTION No 3 :

If variations in Saturn's rotation rate can be assigned (at least theoretically) to geyser activity of Enceladus, and if it is more than reasonably to assume that geyser activity would have extreme consequences to the rate of rotation of Enceladus itself, isn't it more than reasonably to assume that Enceladus in these circumstances couldn't remain tidally locked with Saturn due to it's changed rate of rotation?
[/quote]

Now, the RE are going to have to explain why Enceladus' rate of rotation is not modified (as it should), given the fact that it can modify Saturn's rate of rotation.

The signals are GOING BOTH WAYS.

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228339175_Enceladus_A_significant_plasma_source_for_Saturn's_magnetosphere

Enceladus is clearly implicated as a significant, if not dominant, source of Saturn's magnetospheric plasma.

Material blasted into space by Enceladus feeds Saturn’s giant E ring and is a major source of material (plasma) fueling Saturn’s magnetosphere.

CURVATURE

C = R(1 - cos[s/(2R)]) - angle measured in radians


R = 6378,164 km

s = distance



VISUAL OBSTACLE

BD = (R + h)/{[2Rh + h2]1/2(sin s/R)(1/R) + cos s/R} - R


BD = visual obstacle

h = altitude of observer


No curvature across the strait of Gibraltar, no ascending slope, no midpoint 3.5 meter visual obstacle, a perfectly flat surface of the water all the way to Africa:

Quote
General relativistic Sagnac formula revised by Paolo Maraner · Jean-Pierre Zendri

Abstract The Sagnac effect is a time or phase shift observed between two beams of light traveling in opposite directions in a rotating interferometer. We show that the standard description of this effect within the framework of general relativity misses the effect of deflection of light due to rotational inertial forces. We derive the necessary modification and demonstrate it through a
detailed analysis of the square Sagnac interferometer rotating about its symmetry axis in Minkowski space-time.

The role of the time shift in a Sagnac interferometer in the synchronization procedure of remote clocks as well as its analogy with the Aharanov-Bohm effect are revised.
Keywords Sagnac effect · Relativistic corrections · Clocks synchronization · Aharanov-Bohm effect

No, it is not just for the "comparison of two sides" it is the analysis of the whole loop with the light travelling in both directions as did Michelson,  Sagnac, Silberstein and the Conspiracy of Light site.

"TWO LOOPS" are not "required by the definition of the Sagnac effect"! That is just something you dreamed up that nobody else agrees with.
I know Pooch Yeh does show, among others, a phase conjugate gyroscope with two loops but that is a different situation.

Are you daring to suggest that you know the definition of the Sagnac effect  better than MichelsonSagnac, Silberstein and Paolo Maraner · Jean-Pierre Zendri.

It is plain trigonometry.

They have been around for many years here, you think that if the RE thought they were false they wouldn't have said something about it?

But they know that the formulas are correct.

Then, the Earth is flat and you are a flat earth believer.

You are located now on the beach, Grimsby. Distance to Toronto, 55 km.

Here is what you are going to see on spherical earth: an ascending slope, a midpoint curvature of 59 meters, and a visual obstacle measuring even more (use my formula with AE = 5 meters).

The main term of the phase shift is this:

4AΩ/c^2

But this is the CORIOLIS EFFECT formula, they add higher relativistic terms to it.

You can't have A SINGLE FORMULA FOR TWO DIFFERENT EFFECTS, CAN YOU?

If they say it is the SAGNAC EFFECT and the formula they provide is the CORIOLIS EFFECT, something is very wrong isn't it?


4AΩ/c^2.

Now, here is a direct derivation of the same formula using only the Coriolis force:

A beautiful direct derivation using undergraduate level mathematics, very simple.

THE FINAL FORMULA DERIVED BY S. HAJRA IS THIS:

dt = 4ωA/c^2

He derived this formula using ONLY the Coriolis force as a guide.


Same formula as that derived by Sagnac and by Silberstein.


"TWO LOOPS" are not "required by the definition of the Sagnac effect"! That is just something you dreamed up that nobody else agrees with.

But they are required.

This plainly shows your cognitive dissonance: you are willing to MODIFY the currently accepted definition of the SAGNAC EFFECT to satisfy your whimsical heliocentrical world.

Please read.

Here are the DEFINITIONS USED BY MODERN SCIENCE TO DESCRIBE THE SAGNAC EFFECT:

https://www.mathpages.com/rr/s2-07/2-07.htm

If two pulses of light are sent in opposite directions around a stationary circular loop of radius R, they will travel the same inertial distance at the same speed, so they will arrive at the end point simultaneously.

http://www.cleonis.nl/physics/phys256/sagnac.php

Essential in the Sagnac effect is that a loop is closed.

http://www.einsteins-theory-of-relativity-4engineers.com/sagnac-effect.html

The Sagnac effect is observed when coherent light travels around a closed loop in opposite directions and the phases of the two signals are compared at a detector.


This shows you haven't the foggiest idea of what you are talking about.

Michelson and Gale COMPARED TWO SIDES ONLY, not any loops at all:

The final formula used by Michelson features an AREA: it is the CORIOLIS EFFECT formula.



Using a phase-conjugate mirror, for the first time in 1986, Professor Yeh was able to derive the TRUE SAGNAC FORMULA which is proportional to the velocity of the light beams.

Since Δφ = 2πc/λ x Δt, Δt = 2(R1L1 + R2L2)Ω/c2 = 2(V1L1 + V2L2)/c2

The Coriolis effect is a physical effect upon the light beams: it is proportional to the area of the interferometer. It is a comparison of two sides.

The Sagnac effect is an electromagnetic effect upon the velocities of the light beams: it is proportional to the radius of rotation. It is a comparison of two loops.

Two different phenomena require two very different formulas.


My SAGNAC EFFECT formula proven and experimentally fully established at the highest possible level of science.



Let us now compare the two derivations, using two loops (Sagnac effect) and two sides (Coriolis effect):

(http://www.conspiracyoflight.com/Michelson-Gale_webapp/image002.png)

Point A is located at the detector
Point B is in the bottom right corner
Point C is in the upper right corner
Point D is in the upper left corner

l1 is the upper arm.
l2 is the lower arm.

Here is the most important part of the derivation of the full/global Sagnac effect for an interferometer located away from the center of rotation.

A > B > C > D > A is a continuous counterclockwise path, a negative sign -

A > D > C > B > A is a continuous clockwise path, a positive sign +

The Sagnac phase difference for the clockwise path has a positive sign.

The Sagnac phase difference for the counterclockwise has a negative sign.


Sagnac phase components for the A > D > C > B > A path (clockwise path):

l1/(c - v1)

-l2/(c + v2)

Sagnac phase components for the A > B > C > D > A path (counterclockwise path):

l2/(c - v2)

-l1/(c + v1)


For the single continuous clockwise path we add the components:

l1/(c - v1) - l2/(c + v2)

For the single continuous counterclockwise path we add the components:

l2/(c - v2) - l1/(c + v1)


The net phase difference will be (let us remember that the counterclockwise phase difference has a negative sign attached to it, that is why the substraction of the phase differences becomes an addition):

{l1/(c - v1) - l2/(c + v2)} - (-){l2/(c - v2) - l1/(c + v1)} = {l1/(c - v1) - l2/(c + v2)} + {l2/(c - v2) - l1/(c + v1)}

Rearranging terms:

l1/(c - v1) - l1/(c + v1) + {l2/(c - v2) - l2/(c + v2)} =

2(v1l1 + v2l2)/c2

Exactly the formula obtained by Professor Yeh:

φ = -2(φ2 - φ1) = 4π(R1L1 + R2L2)Ω/λc = 4π(V1L1 + V2L2)/λc

Since Δφ = 2πc/λ x Δt, Δt = 2(R1L1 + R2L2)Ω/c2 = 2(V1L1 + V2L2)/c2

CORRECT SAGNAC FORMULA:

2(V1L1 + V2L2)/c2

Self-pumped phase-conjugate fiber-optic gyro, I. McMichael, P. Yeh, Optics Letters 11(10):686-8 · November 1986 

http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a170203.pdf (appendix 5.1)


This is how the correct Sagnac formula is derived: we have single continuous clockwise path, and a single continuous counterclockwise path.

If we desire the Coriolis effect, we simply substract as follows:

dt = l1/(c - v1) - l1/(c + v1) - (l2/(c - v2) - l2/(c + v2))

Of course, by proceeding as in the usual manner for a Sagnac phase shift formula for an interferometer whose center of rotation coincides with its geometrical center, we obtain:

2v1l1/(c2 - v21) - 2v2l2/(c2 - v22)

l = l1 = l2

2l[(v1 - v2)]/c2

2lΩ[(R1 - R2)]/c2

R1 - R2 = h

2lhΩ/c2

By having substracted two different Sagnac phase shifts, valid for the two different segments, we obtain the CORIOLIS EFFECT formula.


However, for the SAGNAC EFFECT, we have a single CONTINUOUS CLOCKWISE PATH, and a single CONTINUOUS COUNTERCLOCKWISE PATH, as the definition of the Sagnac effect entails.

You still don't get it.

Please show to everyone here that any of the two formulas are wrong.

It is plain trigonometry.

Are you telling your readers that you cannot derive very simple formulas?

They have been around for many years here, you think that if the RE thought they were false they wouldn't have said something about it?

But they know that the formulas are correct.

It has been pointed out to you on numerous occasions that this bulge does not exist,

Then, the Earth is flat and you are a flat earth believer.

Is this supposed to be a joke on your part? You seem to complain that a spherical earth has curvature.


You are located now on the beach, Grimsby. Distance to Toronto, 55 km.

Here is what you are going to see on spherical earth: an ascending slope, a midpoint curvature of 59 meters, and a visual obstacle measuring even more (use my formula with AE = 5 meters).

The formulas are very precise and require basic trigonometry.

Are you telling your readers that you cannot follow such simple derivations?

Firstly my readers lol Im just some guy on the internet mate I havent got any readers.

I just keep asking you questions you dont answer.

You came up with the formula to calculate the bulge you think should be present on a sphere.

You consistently dont work through your formula because it is gish there is no line between A and B

Basic geometry.

Then scurry off to photo's as evidence  ::)

I think you were reaching for

Next post wall of text re repeating something you have already repeated is not adding anything to the debate.

P.S. Rabinoz, Jack, you are such a great comedians, but you are no match to this guy :
Still nothing of value, I see. 
Well, since you are keeping your head in the send, then obviously you can't see shit.

1. Have you ever seen this before :

---The only acceptable conclusion that can be drawn from these two experiments, Michelson–Morley, on the one hand, and Michelson–Gale, on the other hand, is that the hypothesis of the existence of a medium of propagation for light is not tenable, unless we accept geocentric implications from the combined effect of both experiments (MM and MGP). In the classical context, it is clear that the Sagnac effect cannot at all be explained, unless we admit that the earth is at rest while the whole universe rotates around the stationary earth.
Completely wrong.
Firstly, it wouldn't matter if Earth was rotating with the aether at rest, Earth was at rest with the aether rotating around Earth, or both rotating around the axis of Earth. All three would produce the same result.

But more importantly, that ignores stellar aberration, which makes sense in the context of Earth having a speed of roughly 30 km/s.
The detection of stellar aberration combined with the MM experiment refutes the aether model entirely.

1. Let's consider hypotesis No 1 : "If Earth was rotating with the aether at rest" :

If we assumed that the earth is rotating with the aether at rest then we would have to deal with totally different kind of problem :
Instead of being unable to detect earth's orbital motion (Joos' upper limit = 1,54 km/s), and being able (by Michelson, Gale and Pearson) to establish (and confirm (by others) with different methods (see above)) an exact daily rotational velocity of an aether (even exactly matching expected speeds for a given latitudes), in such hypothetical situation (HC scenario) we would have to face quite an opposite difficulty : since the orbital velocity of the earth is almost 100 times greater than the earth's alleged rotational velocity at 40° N latitude, MGP kind of an experiments would yield much higher results (than expected), and MM kind of an experiments would regularly register exactly 108 000 km of earth's orbital velocity. 

2. Let's consider hypotesis No 2 : "Earth was at rest with the aether rotating around Earth" :

This is perfectly in accordance with reality : no orbital motion of the earth, no rotational motion of the earth, and an aether rotates around the motionless earth once per day.

3. Let's consider hypotesis No 3 : "or both rotating around the axis of Earth" :

This is utter nonsense, and here is why :

A) Aether rotates in the same direction of earths rotation twice faster than the earth : This would be the only way how someone could   
measure 363 m/s for the rotational speed of aether (around rotational earth) at 40°N.

PROBLEM : Wrong direction of aether's rotation. (atmospheric charges wouldn't flow faster westward, but eastward)

B) Aether rotates with the same speed of the earth in the same direction of earth's rotation.

PROBLEM : Atmospheric charges wouldn't flow faster neither westward nor eastward.

C) Aether rotates in an opposite direction of earth's rotation (at any speed).

PROBLEM : We would measure rotational speed of a rotating aether which would exceed earth's rotational speed.

ON TOP OF THAT : All three solutions (A,B,C) would be of a minor significance (if any significance at all) since we wouldn't be able to measure rotational speed of an aether around the rotating earth since the speed of aether flow due to orbital motion of the earth would be much (100 times) higher than the speed of an aether due to rotational motion of the earth (see No 1, above).

ACCOMPANYING POST : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=78424.msg2126528#msg2126528

2. Have you ever seen this :

The original experiment of Michelson and Morley was performed in 1887 in order to confirm the theory that says earth exists in an unseen sea of pre-matter called the aether, and that the daily rotation of the earth around itself and the constant travel of the earth around Sol, our sun, would expose any instrument on the earth's surface to what was called an "aether wind". The concept is that the aether, conceived as the medium that allows light waves to travel from one point in the cosmos to another, would influence the measurement of the length of a path of light, depending on whether the path is in line with the expected "wind" or is oriented perpendicular to it.

The experiment did not find the expected result but rather than looking for a reason the aether wind might not be measurable in this way, the idea of there being an aether in the first place was questioned. Einstein then declared that an aether was "not necessary", and since Einstein's theories gained widespread acceptance, any further investigation into the subject of the aether was relegated to the fringes of science.

Many attempts have been made to explain why the physical configuration of the measuring apparatus of Michelson and Morley was improper for showing the aether wind, but no one has repeated the experiment in a different setting.

Now recently Martin Grusenick, an experimenter in Germany, has repeated the Michelson-Morley interferometer experiment with a rather simple laser set-up and has found - to no great surprise - that rotating his apparatus horizontally, no shifts in the interference fringes are observed. Grusenick however had another idea. He modified his apparatus to make it possible to rotate in a vertical plane ... documenting his results in a video that was uploaded on YouTube:



In Einstein's own words ..

“My opinion about Miller’s experiments is the following. … Should the positive result be confirmed, then the special theory of relativity and with it the general theory of relativity, in its current form, would be invalid. Experimentum summus judex. Only the equivalence of inertia and gravitation would remain, however, they would have to lead to a significantly different theory.”
Albert Einstein, in a letter to Edwin E. Slosson, 8 July 1925 (from copy in Hebrew University Archive, Jerusalem.)

I believe that I have really found the relationship between gravitation and electricity, assuming that the Miller experiments are based on a fundamental error. Otherwise, the whole relativity theory collapses like a house of cards.”
Albert Einstein, in a letter to Robert Millikan, June 1921 (in Clark 1971, p.328)

You imagine that I look back on my life’s work with calm satisfaction. But from nearby it looks quite different. There is not a single concept of which I am convinced that it will stand firm, and I feel uncertain whether I am in general on the right track.
Albert Einstein, on his 70th birthday, in a letter to Maurice Solovine, 28 March 1949 (in B. Hoffman Albert Einstein: Creator and Rebel 1972, p.328)

3. Have you ever seen this :

---First of all, it is inconsistent with the aberration of fixed stars (as we know, during a year the stars describe a small ellipse on the background of the sky. This effect cannot occur if the aether is fully dragged by the Earth).

---Secondly, the experiment of Sagnac was repeated by Michelson and Gale in 1925, but this time taking the Earth as a rotating disk (as already suggested by Sagnac himself). These authors observed a displacement of the fringes of interferences, as had Sagnac in his own experiment. This positive result undoubtedly confirms that the Earth does not drag the hypothetical aether in its rotation (it is therefore illogical to admit that it drags this medium in its translation[/color]).

---The only acceptable conclusion that can be drawn from these two experiments, Michelson–Morley, on the one hand, and Michelson–Gale, on the other hand, is that the hypothesis of the existence of a medium of propagation for light is not tenable, unless we accept geocentric implications from the combined effect of both experiments (MM and MGP). In the classical context, it is clear that the Sagnac effect cannot at all be explained, unless we admit that the earth is at rest while the whole universe rotates around the stationary earth.

---It appears rather amazing that the "correct relativistic interpretation" of the Sagnac effect took eight years. A seemingly obvious reason is that Sagnac's experiment was not very much discussed in the scientific literature, even in France after the discovery of 1913. Conscious of this situation, in 1919, Sagnac published five papers on his work in the Comptes rendus. The paradox is that his ideas were nevertheless borne by a French group of strong antirelativists. In 1919, Sagnac was even rewarded with the Pierson–Perrin Prize for his achievements on this topic (first for the experiment, seen as a rebuttal of the relativity principle, the constancy of light, and also for having proven the reality of absolute space and time).

Einstein published his theory of general relativity in 1915. (two years after Sagnac had conducted his famous, decisive experiment). Isn't that interesting???

Post by: cikljamas on September 06, 2019, 04:08:52 AM
Most scientists know about the Michelson-Morely experiment – that failed to detect any movement of the earth round the sun. This had to be overcome so the Fitzgerald-Lorentz shortening of the apparatus was proposed, and eventually the paradoxical Relativity Theory was invented by Einstein to overcome this problem. However, there are three other experiments that have been deliberately ignored by universities because they support geocentricity.

(a) The Michelson-Gale experiment (Reference – Astrophysical Journal 1925 v 61 pp 140-5) – This detected the aether passing the surface of the earth with an accuracy of 2% of the speed of the daily rotation of the earth! Thus, the Michelson-Morely experiment detected no movement of the earth around the sun, yet the Michelson-Gale experiment measured the earth’s rotation (or the aether’s rotation around the earth!) to within 2%! This surely speaks volumes for geocentricity.

(b) “Airey’s failure” (Reference – Proc. Roy. Soc. London v 20 p 35) – Telescopes have to be very slightly tilted to get the starlight going down the axis of the tube because of the earth’s “speed around the sun”. Airey filled a telescope with water that greatly slowed down the speed of the light inside the telescope and found that he did not have to change the angle of the telescope. This showed that the starlight was already coming in at the correct angle so that no change was needed. This demonstrated that it was the stars moving relative to a stationary earth and not the fast orbiting earth moving relative to the comparatively stationary stars. If it was the telescope moving he would have had to change the angle.

(c) The Sagnac experiment (Reference – Comptes Rendus 1913 v157 p 708-710 and 1410-3) – Sagnac rotated a table complete with light and mirrors with the light being passed in opposite directions around the table between the mirrors. He detected the movement of the table by the movement of the interference fringes on the target where they were recombined. This proved that there IS an aether that the light has to pass through and this completely destroys Einstein’s theory of Relativity that says there is no aether. It is for this reason that this experiment is completely ignored by scientists. More recently Kantor has found the same result with similar apparatus.

All these experiments are never taught at universities, so consequently, scientists, including most Christian creationists, are ignorant of this evidence for geocentricity.

As for MMX itself, the common interpretation by Special Relativity theorists is that the experiment yielded a “null” result. Yes, if you are looking for fringe shifts in the interferometer that coincide with an Earth moving around the sun at 30km/sec, I guess one would be predisposed to conclude that the results of MMX were “null.”

But the truth is, in the technical sense of the term, the results of MMX were anything but “null.” Null means zero, but MMX did not register a zero ether drift.

So was the case for every interferometer experiment performed for the next 80 years until the 1960s – a small ether drift that was a fraction of 30km/sec. This was a conundrum for Einstein and his followers, since the Special Theory of Relativity, which was invented to answer MMX, claimed that there was NO ether at all in space – none, nada, zilch, zero. In fact, Einstein said that if there was any ether in space, then his theory is nullified.

He said, “If Michelson-Morley is wrong, then Relativity is wrong.” - Einstein: The Life and Times, p. 107.
So, according to Einstein : IF AETHER EXISTS, THEN RELATIVITY IS WRONG!

So Einstein simply dismissed the fractional ether drift of MMX as a mere artifact.But the sad fact is, scientifically speaking, artifacts would not have appeared in all the dozens of interferometer experiments performed over the next 80 years.“Artifacts” are posited only because modern interpreters are bound to the Copernican Principle, by their own admission.

If there is no ether wind, than Earth is spinning with the ether, but Geocentrism (where the universe rotates around Earth) can't have that. Earth must be motionless with neither translation nor rotation. So if the universe is spinning around Earth, the ether should be too, and this spin around Earth causes a drift.

If there were indeed no drift at all detected by Michelson-Morley, this would be equally support for a non-orbiting Earth as it is for Relativity. However, if a drift is detected, and this drift is not big enough to account for Earth's orbital motion, but is big enough to account for the ether drift, than Michelson-Morley is evidence of Geocentrism to the exclusion of Relativity (because Relativity can't have any drift whatsoever).

Michelson-Morley originally obtained a slight positive result which has been systematically ignored or misrepresented by modern physics. As stated by Michelson-Morley :

"...the relative velocity of the earth and the ether is probably less than one-sixth the earth's orbital velocity, and certainly less than one-fourth. ... The experiment will therefore be repeated at intervals of three months, and thus all uncertainty will be avoided." (Michelson-Morley 1887)...Unfortunately, and in spite of all claims to the contrary, Michelson-Morley never undertook those additional experiments at the different seasonal configurations, to "avoid all uncertainty". However, Miller did.

Miller’s work is hardly known or mentioned, as is the case with nearly all the experiments which produced positive results for an ether in space. Modern physics today points instead to the much earlier and less significant 1887 work of Michelson-Morley, as having “proved the ether did not exist”.

While Miller had a rough time convincing some of his contemporaries about the reality of his ether-measurements, he clearly could not be ignored in this regard. As a graduate of physics from Princeton University, President of the American Physical Society and Acoustical Society of America, Chairman of the Division of Physical Sciences of the National Research Council, Chairman of the Physics Department of Case School of Applied Science (today Case Western Reserve University), and Member of the National Academy of Sciences well known for his work in acoustics, Miller was no “outsider”. While he was alive, he produced a series of papers presenting solid data on the existence of a measurable ether-drift, and he successfully defended his findings to not a small number of critics, including Einstein. His work employed light-beam interferometers of the same type used by Michelson-Morley, but of a more sensitive construction, with a significantly longer light-beam path. He periodically took the device high atop Mt. Wilson (above 6,000' elevation), where Earth-entrained ether-theory predicted the ether would move at a faster speed than close to sea-level. While he was alive, Miller’s work could not be fundamentally undermined by the critics. However, towards the end of his life, he was subject to isolation as his ether-measurements were simply ignored by the larger world of physics, then captivated by Einstein’s relativity theory.

There are several newspaper accounts indicating a certain tension between Albert Einstein and Dayton Miller, since the early 1920s at least. In June of 1921, Einstein wrote to the physicist Robert Millikan: "I believe that I have really found the relationship between gravitation and electricity, assuming that the Miller experiments are based on a fundamental error. Otherwise, the whole relativity theory collapses like a house of cards." (Clark 1971, p.328)

Speaking before scientists at the University of Berlin, Einstein said the ether drift experiments at Cleveland showed zero results, while on Mount Wilson they showed positive results. Therefore, altitude influences results. In addition, temperature differences have provided a source of error.

"The trouble with Prof. Einstein is that he knows
nothing about my results." Dr. Miller said. "He has
been saying for thirty years that the interferometer
experiments in Cleveland showed negative results. We
never said they gave negative results, and they did
not in fact give negative results
. He ought to give
me credit for knowing that temperature differences
would affect the results. He wrote to me in November
suggesting this. I am not so simple as to make no
allowance for temperature."

(Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper, 27 Jan. 1926)

Miller's work on ether drift was clearly undertaken with more precision, care and diligence than any other researcher who took up the question, including Michelson, and yet, his work has basically been written out of the history of science. When alive, Miller responded concisely to his critics, and demonstrated the ether-drift phenomenon with increasing precision over the years. Michelson and a few others of the period took Miller's work seriously, but Einstein and his followers appeared to view Miller only as a threat, something to be "explained away" as expeditiously as possible. Einstein in fact was catapulted into the public eye following the end of World War II. Nuclear physics was then viewed as heroic, and Einstein fast became a cultural icon whose work could not be criticized. Into this situation came the Shankland team, with the apparent mission to nail the lid down on Miller's coffin. In this effort, they nearly succeeded.

Sorry,  Maraner and Zendri derived the Sagnac effect! Read what they say:

What they say is one thing, the formula they provide is the CORIOLIS EFFECT formula.

Please read.

Here is the formula provided by Maraner and Zendri:

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y1t6uxf1nw8w6b4/General%20relativistic%20Sagnac%20formula%20revised%20by%20Paolo%20Maraner%20%C2%B7%20Jean-Pierre%20Zendri.png?dl=1)

The main term of the phase shift is this:

4AΩ/c^2

But this is the CORIOLIS EFFECT formula, they add higher relativistic terms to it.

You can't have A SINGLE FORMULA FOR TWO DIFFERENT EFFECTS, CAN YOU?
We  don't! That formula is for the Sagnac effect, it was the Sagnac effect long before you were born and YOU cannot change it!

Quote from: sandokhan
If they say it is the SAGNAC EFFECT and the formula they provide is the CORIOLIS EFFECT, something is very wrong isn't it?
Someone is very wrong aren't they it? And that someone is you!
MichelsonSagnac, Silberstein and Paolo Maraner · Jean-Pierre Zendri and any number of others agree that 4AΩ/c2 is the Sagnac effect!

Quote from: sandokhan
4AΩ/c^2.

THIS IS THE CORIOLIS EFFECT FORMULA.
So you say but you are wrong!
That is not the Coriolis effect! This is the Coriolis effect or force: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ymhi8efjdujyywm/Coriolis%20Force%20Equation.png?dl=1)

And it does not matter how many times you say it us the Coriolis effect it is still the Sagnac effect according to everybody but you!

To read before bed (a gift from above) :

As one can see, the shell game of modem science continued and Lorentz became its premier magician, all in an effort to avoid having to admit to
the audience the possibility that the Earth was standing still in space.

The issue was further obfuscated when physicists began creating different responses to explain the “contraction” solution. At one point Lorentz held:

“Yes, it is as real as anything we can observe,” to which Sir Arthur Eddington retorted, “We say it contracts; but length is not a property of the rod; it is a relation between the rod and the observer .
 
At another time Eddington said:

“The shortening of the moving rod is true, but it is not really true .”

In one of his more sober moments, however, he added:

“...it was like the adventures of Gulliver in Lilliputland and Alice’s adventures in Wonderland.”

Albert Michelson didn’t buy it either. To him the Lorentz solution was artificial, mainly because the so-called contraction was independent of the elastic property inherent in the interferometer itself, as in, for example, the resilience of a tennis ball returning to its original shape after it is struck.

He writes of Lorentz’s proposal:

Such a conclusion seems so improbable that one is inclined to return to
the hypothesis of Fresnel and try to reconcile in some other way
the ‘negative result’ [of the Michelson-Morley experiment].

Arthur S. Eddington, The Nature of the Physical World, New York, MacMillian
Company and Cambridge University Press, 1929, pp. 33-34, emphasis his.

At other points Lorentz admitted he was uncertain. In 1904 he stated:

It need hardly be said that the present theory is put forward with all due reserve. Though it seems to me that it can account
for all well-established facts, it leads to some consequences that cannot as yet be put to the test of experiment. One of these
is that the result of Michelson’ s experiment must remain negative..
.

The experiments of which I have spoken are not the only
reason for which a new examination of the problems connected
with the motion of the Earth
is desirable... in order to explain
Michelson’ s negative result, the introduction of a new
hypothesis has been required... Surely this course of inventing
special hypotheses for each new experimental result is
somewhat artificial. It would be more satisfactory if it were
possible to show by means of certain fundamental
assumptions ...


Notice that Lorentz is concerned with “problems connected with
the motion of the Earth
,” which tells us that the fear of being forced to
accept the “unthinkable” immobile Earth was the basis upon which his
ad hoc solution was determined. Reading between the lines we know that
Lorentz was concerned with the fact that, if he could not come up with a
convincing explanation to Michelson-Morley, he and the rest of the
world would be in for a great embarrassment. Undaunted, Lorentz put
the contraction theory of Fitzgerald into a mathematical formula and the
equation eventually became world famous. Known as the “Lorentz
Transformation,” it is still employed by many scientists today for almost
any problem having to do with dismissing the possibility that Earth is
motionless in space .

As Arthur Miller explains it, hoping to give it some respectability: “Lorentz (1886) used Huygens’ principle and Fresnel’s hypothesis to deduce the velocity of light that traversed a medium of refractive index N that was at rest where the source could have been either on the Earth or in the ether [which] explained Arago’s experiment and an equivalent one by George Biddell Airy. Lorentz continued (1886), by noting that from
the viewpoint of the geocentric system we could say that ‘the waves are entrained by the ether’ according to the amount -v/N 2 . For consistency with the nomenclature of the time Lorentz defined v r as the velocity of the ‘relative ray’ and c/N as the velocity of the ‘absolute ray.’ For example, in order to view the light from a fixed star, a telescope, or a system of aligned slits, at rest on the Earth had to be oriented in the direction of the relative ray because the relative ray was the direction in which energy was transported. . ..On the other hand, an observer at rest in the ether measured the velocity of the light that was propagating through the medium at rest on the moving Earth to be c' = M r + v. ..Lorentz noted that the ether-fixed observer could interpret [c' = u T + v] as the ‘entrainment of the light waves by the ponderable matter” {Albert Einstein 's Special Theory of Relativity, pp. 19-20).

Of course, even Einstein could see through this hodgepodge of ad hoc explanations, politely calling them “asymmetries which do not appear to be inherent in the phenomena,” in his 1905 Annalen der Physik article. In the end, Lorentz was forced to admit: “Briefly, everything occurs as if the Earth were at rest, and the relative rays were the absolute rays” {ibid., p. 20). Einstein: The Life and Times, p. 120.


Other confusing statements include Wolfgang Pauli’s:

“It therefore follows that the Lorentz contraction is not a property of a single rod taken by itself, but a reciprocal relation between two such rods
moving relatively to each other, and this relation is in principle observable” (Wolfgang Pauli, Theory of Relativity, Dover Publications, 1958, pp. 12- 13);

and Herman Minkowski’s:

“This hypothesis sounds extremely fantastical, for the contraction is not to be looked upon as a consequence of resistances in the ether, or anything of that kind, but simply as a gift from above, - as an accompanying circumstance of the circumstance of motion” (“Space and Time,” in The Principle of Relativity : A Collection of Original Memoirs on the Special and General Theory > of Relativity by H. A. Lorentz, A. Einstein, H. Minkowski and H. Weyl, translated by W. Perrett and G. B. Jeffery from the original 1923 edition, Dover Publications, 1952, p. 81).

So, the next time when you put forward for umpteenth time in a row, your famous idiotic question i will simply direct you to this very post. O.K.?
And the post goes like this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/cJLdxTNF/ROCKETS-NASA-S-SILLIEST-LIE.jpg)

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense. If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one. Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks. If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.

This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do.

Why do you think it's not the case? Which part do you think is impossible?

Seriously? lol

Again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the rocket to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

Was this helpful in a sense that now you are ready to admit that there is no error in the following explanation :

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

You still haven't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..
what happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

THE PROBLEM No 1. If the speed of dissipation (velocity of gas expansion in a vacuum) is equal or greater than exhaust velocity of a rocket, then thrust efficiency is ZERO.

THE PROBLEM No 2 : What kind of a rocket could provide enough thrust, so that it can fly for 8,25 hours continually, pushing itself off of their own ejected gasses? After liftoff, it takes about 10 minutes before the main rocket stages burn out (depends on the rocket used). After that, the spacecraft is in zero G. The trip from the surface to low Earth orbit is a matter of about 10 minutes under thrust.

THE PROBLEM No 3 : As the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude. Now, remember: NASA tells us that their rockets perform below max efficiency at sea level, at optimal efficiency somewhat higher in the atmosphere (as the rocket pressure equalizes with the external air pressure) and then start losing efficiency again as they ascend into ever thinner air. Note: NASA says so - not me.

THE PROBLEM No 4 : To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed.

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

3. Jack, have you ever seen this :

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

BULLSHIT :

An airplane propeller DOES push against the air and in so doing it DOES impart a reactive force to the plane because the prop is a solid object CONNECTED to the plane.

Rocket exhaust isn’t connected to the rocket so it can’t function as a pushing medium to the rocket as a propeller does.

Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle. There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.

That is how rocket thrust works. The continued expansion of gasses caused by burning high energy fuel builds up pressure but the pressure is always lower at the rear of the rocket motor due to the open nozzle. The higher pressure in the forward part of the motor maintains an imbalance of forces so the rocket continues to move as long as fuel is burned.

In addition to the above force there is also some thrust caused by rearward ejection of mass (the exhaust) in accordance with Newton’s 3rd Law.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

COMMON SENSE :

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.

To save time, I will tell you how I interpret Newtons 3 Laws of Motion. If you disagree then there is no longer a reason to continue this thread as we differ on basic laws of physics which won’t be resolved here. If you agree with me, then there is much to discuss.

Let’s start with Newtons 3 Laws of Motion.

Fist Law: For an object to remain as it is, either moving or not, the sum of the forces on it are zero.
Sigma F = 0

Second Law: For a body to accelerate, there must be a force on it.
F = ma

Third Law: For every force in one direction, there is an equal force in the opposite direction.
F1 = – F2 or F1 + F2 = 0

Notice how all of Newtons Laws of Motion contain the term ‘force’. Newton used the term ‘force’ to explain how objects are pushed and pulled in our universe.

This is how I see Newtons 3rd Law applied to rockets flying through our atmosphere:

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

The way you are explaining it, is that molecules hitting inside a chamber are moving the rocket forward, AND the rocket is moving forward. You did mention the perhaps the exhaust might move it forward also somewhat, but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.

You can’t have two positive forces. F1 + F2 would then be greater than zero, and that defies Newtons 3rd Law. My point is the exhaust out the back is not the minor part, it is the major part of the force. Newtons 3rd law says it has to be.

4. Jack, have you ever seen this :

So you go and find the "As we shall see latter(sic), maximum thrust occurs when Pe=Pa" and find out what it means.

5. Jack, have you ever seen this :


So, in the air there is force between the air and the exhaust.
Why is not the rocket included?
How can rocket acceerate in the air if no force acts on it?

Most scientists know about the Michelson-Morely experiment – that failed to detect any movement of the earth round the sun. This had to be overcome so the Fitzgerald-Lorentz shortening of the apparatus was proposed, and eventually the paradoxical Relativity Theory was invented by Einstein to overcome this problem.
No, Einstein developed Special Relativity to explain the invariance of Maxwell's Equations in various inertial reference frames.
Look at its title "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies"!

Quote from: cikljamas
However, there are three other experiments that have been deliberately ignored by universities because they support geocentricity.
Where did you drag "deliberately ignored by universities" up from? Your fertile imagination!
Because they are not ignored nor do they necessarily support Geocentricity!

Quote from: cikljamas
(a) The Michelson-Gale experiment (Reference – Astrophysical Journal 1925 v 61 pp 140-5) – This detected the aether passing the surface of the earth with an accuracy of 2% of the speed of the daily rotation of the earth! Thus, the Michelson-Morely experiment detected no movement of the earth around the sun, yet the Michelson-Gale experiment measured the earth’s rotation (or the aether’s rotation around the earth!) to within 2%! This surely speaks volumes for geocentricity.
A bit of honesty please!
Ludwik Silberstein urged Albert Michelson to perform an experiment like this as verification of the, then new, General Relativity.
Albert Michelson was reluctant both because of the expense and his realisation that the experiment could not distinguish between General Relativity and aether with zero dragging factor.

In the end Albert Michelson and Henry Gale, an astrophysicist, did perform the experiment and the results supported either theory.
But the Michelson-Gale experiment does not support Geocentricity!

Quote from: cikljamas
(b) “Airey’s failure” (Reference – Proc. Roy. Soc. London v 20 p 35) – Telescopes have to be very slightly tilted to get the starlight going down the axis of the tube because of the earth’s “speed around the sun”. Airey filled a telescope with water that greatly slowed down the speed of the light inside the telescope and found that he did not have to change the angle of the telescope. This showed that the starlight was already coming in at the correct angle so that no change was needed. This demonstrated that it was the stars moving relative to a stationary earth and not the fast orbiting earth moving relative to the comparatively stationary stars. If it was the telescope moving he would have had to change the angle.
Not necessarily so! Airey's fits far better with relativity than with any aether theory!

Quote from: cikljamas
(c) The Sagnac experiment (Reference – Comptes Rendus 1913 v157 p 708-710 and 1410-3) – Sagnac rotated a table complete with light and mirrors with the light being passed in opposite directions around the table between the mirrors. He detected the movement of the table by the movement of the interference fringes on the target where they were recombined. This proved that there IS an aether that the light has to pass through and this completely destroys Einstein’s theory of Relativity that says there is no aether. It is for this reason that this experiment is completely ignored by scientists. More recently Kantor has found the same result with similar apparatus.
No, it did NOT "prove that there IS an aether" nor did it "completely destroy Einstein’s theory of Relativity".
The Sagnac effect might present difficulties for Special Relativity but that's to be expected because a rotating table is not an inertial frame of reference!
But the Sagnac readily fits into General Relativity.

I fail to see why you would think that Sagnac's experiment would not be taught when fibre optic Sagnac Gyroscopes and Ring Laser Gyroscopes feature so prominently these days!

Quote from: cikljamas
All these experiments are never taught at universities, so consequently, scientists, including most Christian creationists, are ignorant of this evidence for geocentricity.
That is total rubbish and just proves you own ignorance.

Quote from: cikljamas
As for MMX itself, the common interpretation by Special Relativity theorists is that the experiment yielded a “null” result. Yes, if you are looking for fringe shifts in the interferometer that coincide with an Earth moving around the sun at 30km/sec, I guess one would be predisposed to conclude that the results of MMX were “null.”

But the truth is, in the technical sense of the term, the results of MMX were anything but “null.” Null means zero, but MMX did not register a zero ether drift.
No, they can be regarded as NULL because the reading was less than the measuring capability of the apparatus used.
As equipment was improved, that limit was also reduced and is still being reduced because scientists are trying to find any anisotropy!

Quote from: cikljamas
So was the case for every interferometer experiment performed for the next 80 years until the 1960s – a small ether drift that was a fraction of 30km/sec. This was a conundrum for Einstein and his followers, since the Special Theory of Relativity, which was invented to answer MMX, claimed that there was NO ether at all in space – none, nada, zilch, zero. In fact, Einstein said that if there was any ether in space, then his theory is nullified.
Look all this was covered in this old post and others but YOU seem to have the memory span of a gold-fish and bring the same old thing up again and again ad nauseum.

So I'll do a Sandokhan or a Cikljamas just copy part of that post here:

You claim that, "They reasoned that". I suspect that is really "cikljamas reasoned that"!
Read about Michelson's thoughts on the matter (again and again and AGAIN!): 
Quote
As mentioned above, as early as 1904 Michelson had proposed using such a device to measure the rotation of the earth, but he hadn't pursued the idea, since measurements of absolute rotation are fairly commonplace (e.g. Focault’s pendulum). Nevertheless, he (along with Gale) agreed to perform the experiment in 1925 (at considerable cost) at the urging of "relativists", who wished him to verify the shift of 236/1000 of a fringe predicted by special relativity. This was intended mainly to refute the theory of an ether fully dragged around with the spinning earth, as well as the only physically plausible ballistic theory of light propagation, both of which predict zero phase shift (for a circular device). Michelson was not enthusiastic, since classical optics on the assumption of a stationary ether predicted exactly the same shift does special relativity (as explained above). He said,
         "We will undertake this, although my conviction is strong that we shall prove only that
          the earth rotates on its axis, a conclusion which I think we may be said to be sure of already."
As Harvey lime wrote in his biographical sketch of Michelson, "The experiment, performed on the prairies west of Chicago, showed a displacement of 230/1000, in very close agreement with the prediction. The rotation of the Earth received another independent proof, the theory of relativity another verification. But neither fact had much significance." Michelson himself wrote that "this result may be considered as an additional evidence in favor of relativity - or equally as evidence of a stationary ether".
From Math Pages, 2.7  The Sagnac Effect (http://www.mathpages.com/rr/s2-07/2-07.htm)
Note that Michelson himself claims that the MGX is
"an additional evidence in favor of relativity - or equally as evidence of a stationary ether".
Not a moving ether! But, of course,
Mr High and Mighty cikljamas, thinks he knows more than Michelson and all the others!

Quote from: cikljamas
They measured a difference. Existence  of aether established. Astounding as it may seem there is no experiment yet devised by science which has established whether the earth actually rotates or not.

The experiments of Sagnac and Michelson & Gale are rarely mentioned. Until recently it was quite difficult to find a reference to them.
Rubbish! The MGX and the numerous modern Sagnac Loop Gyroscopes of the present time measure the rotation of the earth as once per sidereal day!

Quote from: cikljamas
<< Totally irrelevant! Sagnac and Relativity are quite consistent. >>

So try again!
But on the modern versions of the MMX and experiments with a similar purpose, I suppose you read these little bits?

Michelson wrote about the "decidedly negative result" (IN A SENSE THAT HE FAILED TO DETECT THE EXPECTED DEVIATION OF THE INTERFERENCE FRINGES FROM THE ZERO (0,40 OF A FRINGE), NOT IN A SENSE THAT HE FAILED TO DETECT ANY DEVIATION WHATSOEVER) in a letter to Lord Rayleigh in August 1887:

    The Experiments on the relative motion of the earth and ether have been completed and the result decidedly negative. The expected deviation of the interference fringes from the zero should have been 0.40 of a fringe (Cleveland 1887.) – the maximum displacement was 0.02 and the average much less than 0.01 – and then not in the right place. As displacement is proportional to squares of the relative velocities it follows that if the ether does slip past the relative velocity is less than one sixth of the earth’s velocity.
    —?Albert Abraham Michelson, 1887

So,
0,02 of a fringe (fringe shift expected 0,4) = 6,71 km/s (This is what Michelson measured in Cleveland in 1887.!!!)
0,01 of a fringe (fringe shift expected 0,4) = 4,74 km/s (This is what Michelson measured in Cleveland in 1887.!!!)
0,015 of a fringe (fringe shift expected 1,13) = 3,35 km/s (This is what Morley and Miller measured in Cleveland in 1902-1904.!!!)
0,002 of a fringe (fringe shift expected 0,75) = 1,5 km/s (This is what Joos measured in Jena in 1930.!!!)

So,

6,71 km/s is not zero km/s (and cannot be considered "null" result)
4,47 km/s is not zero km/s (and cannot be considered "null" result)
3,35 km/s is not zero km/s (and cannot be considered "null" result)
1,5 km/s is not zero km/s (and cannot be considered "null" result)

Since  Einstein  chose  as  his  foundation  that  the  Earth  was  translating around the sun at 30 kms and thus postulated the ether  did  not  exist,  the  results  of  MMX  were  considered  “null”  and  all subsequent theorizing, including Special and General Relativity, was built on the assumption that the Earth was moving. Thus, Einstein  could  safely  develop  his  Special  Relativity  theory  with the accepted premise that space was a vacuum that did not possess any ponderable substance (i.e., ether). That Relativity theory was  the  direct  result  of  MMX  was  admitted  by  Einstein  in  a  speech  honoring  Michelson: 

“I  have  come  among  men  who  for many years have been true comrades with me in my labors. You, my  honored  Dr.  Michelson,  began  with  this  work  when  I  was  only a little youngster, hardly three feet high. It was you who led the physicists into new paths, and through your marvelous experimental work paved the way for the development of the Theory of  Relativity.  You  uncovered  an  insidious  defect  in  the  ether  theory  of  light,  as  it  then  existed,  and  stimulated  the  ideas  of  H.  A.  Lorentz  and  Fitzgerald,  out  of  which  the  Special  Theory  of  Relativity  developed.  Without  your  work  this  theory  would  today be scarcely more than an interesting speculation; it was your verifications which first set the theory on a real basis.”

The realities of the scientific results, however, are quite different  than  what  was  assumed  by  Einstein  and  his  colleagues.  The  fact is, the MMX did measure an ether drift. It just didn’t measure a  drift  that  would  be  expected  if  the  Earth  were  moving  around  the  sun  at  30kms;  rather,  it  measured  a  drift  that  was  less  than  one-twentieth  of  30kms.

So Einstein simply dismissed the fractional ether drift of MMX as a mere artifact.But the sad fact is, scientifically speaking, artifacts would not have appeared in all the dozens of interferometer experiments performed over the next 80 years. “Artifacts” are posited only because modern interpreters are bound to the Copernican Principle, by their own admission.

Interestingly enough, Michelson preformed another interferometer experiment with Gale in 1925 (MGX), but this one was designed to measure the rotation of the Earth, not a revolution around the sun. Lo andbehold, Michelson found an ether drift that was near 100% of a 24 hour rotation period. So, whereas MMX measured 0.1% of a 365-day revolution around the sun, MGX measured a 99% of a 24-hour rotation, simply by using the measured ether drift.

This presents quite a problem for the heliocentric camp, for the interferometers measure a rotation butnot a revolution. But heliocentrism must have both, otherwise it is falsified!

Michelson didn't say they saw no evidence of shift. He said it was "probably" less than 16% of what would be expected from Earth's alleged orbital motion. That's not the same as saying there's no evidence of shift, or that the measured shift was within the margin of instrumental error. In fact, he did see a shift...

Even though this did not disprove the existence of the ether, this was an extremely important discovery. The commonly-accepted theories about how light propagates would not be valid if the Earth were moving through the ether at 5 km/s, so science was facing a kind of crisis because of this news.

The theories of the time proposed that light traveled through the ether, which the Earth moved through at 30 km/s. This theory came about after Maxwell summarized the equations of electromagnetism in 1860. Up to this point, the established laws of physics were invariant under Galilean transformations: the simple picture where, if you're in a car at 60mph and someone's driving toward you at 60mph, you can say from your frame of reference that he is coming toward you at 120mph. That is, in a nutshell, classical relativity. Newton's laws of motion work equally well in any non-accelerating reference frame, and so are invariant under a Galilean transformation. That is, you can add a certain velocity to all object in a kinematics problem or move it fifteen miles to the left, and the math will work out the same for you.

It was found that Maxwell's equations were not invariant under a Galilean transformation. It also predicted electromagnetic waves that travelled at speed c, and since this number was close to the speed at which light had been measured, this was seen as likely confirmation that light was an electromagnetic wave. It was at this point that the “ether theory” made a comeback. According to this theory, the ether would be the “rest frame” from which the speed of light is measured at c. Michelson and Morley were trying to prove the existence of this ether by calculating the difference in the speed of light in different directions, and they failed.

 If there is no ether wind, than Earth is spinning with the ether, but Geocentrism (where the universe rotates around Earth) can't have that. Earth must be motionless with neither translation nor rotation. So if the universe is spinning around Earth, the ether should be too, and this spin around Earth causes a drift.

If there were indeed no drift at all detected by Michelson-Morley, this would be equally support for a non-orbiting Earth as it is for Relativity. However, if a drift is detected, and this drift is not big enough to account for Earth's orbital motion, but is big enough to account for the ether drift, than Michelson-Morley is evidence of Geocentrism to the exclusion of Relativity (because Relativity can't have any drift whatsoever).

Your message is UNINTELLIGIBLE.

Question for the moderators: why is mak3m allowed to troll the upper forums?

Ok try this

(http://datagenetics.com/blog/june32012/globe.png)

I, of height h, stand on a sphere of radius R and look out to the horizon. The furthest point I can see is defined by the tangent that grazes the Earth and passes through my eye.

a tangent is normal to the radius and so we can create a right-angle triangle with a hypotenuse of length (R+h). For the two sides of the right-angle, one will be of length R, and the other will be the distance the I can see (which is d on the diagram).

So thanks to Pythagroras, we can create an equation showing the relationship between all three sides of the triangle. Derivation allows us to compute an equation giving the distance to the horizon based on the radius of the the planet and my height as I view the horizon.
(http://datagenetics.com/blog/june32012/math1.png)

So assuming my eys are 1.8m off the ground and that the mean radius of the earth is 6,371km, we can plug in the values

(http://datagenetics.com/blog/june32012/math3.png)

so the furthest I can see ( not taking into account refraction) is 4.79 km

Now I am not taking refraction into account as we are talking about the principles of trigonometry here, if we were talking abosoloute figures we could refine with refraction etc.

So in an earlier post which you ignored, I showed how back in the day I would use a theodolite to carry out topographical surveys, and how that took into account the curvature of the earth.

Now the beautiful aspect of trig is that I can apply the principle here.

(https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQyUPhBoIRRjbf4SnaNcJZm2G7Rmerm11qpAoqHaBlNWkvKVvMx)

So the theodolite is placed perpendicular to the ground, as is the target, the instruments and target have fixed markings and levels to ensure that this can be achieved to a very high degree of accuracy.
Using measurements from both locations I can produce 4 sets of accurate coords, giving an arc from instrument to target, represented as the True Horizontal Distance, and between the bases of the instruments, on the diagram represented by the the earth surface.

So lets say l = the distance at the base, t as the height of the instrument and x to represent the difference between the base arc and the top arc.

Similar to above, I can calculate a ratio using the subtended angle. There are two similar segments, one with arc length l and a radius of R, and one with an arc length of l+x and a radius of R+t. Both of these segments share the same subtended angle on the globe.

So again using trig we can show the ratio of the lengths of the arcs to their respective circumferences and derivate this down to a simple formula for the difference between the two arcs

(http://datagenetics.com/blog/june32012/math2.png)

So using basic trig I can provide a formula where you can go out into the real world, take measurements, plug in the numbers and calculate the curvature.

Its all rough and ready, in my original post I show how it would be done in a survey situation. But like I said it shows the principle, and how you can apply trig

So so run me through yours

1. Jack, have you ever seen this :
Yes I have. And notice that you quoted the refutation of it?

Thrust is that magic word you are looking for, isn't it?
Thrust is the second body?
Sorry, that still doesn't answer my question.

I made it quite clear that your nonsense does not answer the question.
Yet you keep bringing up this already refuted nonsense to pretend it does.

Let's try once again :
1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas
No, that isn't point 1.
You have started with magically accelerated gas.
You are intentionally ignoring the problem which my question is raising.

How does the gas accelerate to begin with?
Start with the gas in the rocket moving with the rocket, i.e. it is at a speed of 0 relative to the rocket.
How does this gas accelerate away from the rocket?
That is the key issue you are repeatedly avoiding because you know it destroys your argument.
You have to outright reject physics to pretend rockets wont work in a vacuum.

So I will ask again:
What force is acting on the gas that is exiting the tank to make it go in a particular direction and what is the other body involved in this interaction?

Will you claim pure magic with gas magically being held inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?
Will you claim pure magic of an object being accelerated without a force? (And if so, why can't the tank and person do so?)
Will you claim pure magic of an object having a force applied without the corresponding reactionary force? (And if so, why can't the tank and person do so?)
Or will you be rational for once and accept that rockets will work in a vacuum?

Both the Black Sun and the visible Sun orbit beyond the Dome. There is a certain distance between them, so in an annular eclipse the distance increases.

(https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/a7Sr87BVf3mLBY4JSTCkTW-320-80.jpg)

The object eclipsing the sun is quite proven to be the moon.

It takes a single counterexample to invalidate a theory.

It can't be the Moon, just take a look at the computations:

No, that does not prove that "It can't be the Moon"! You have not proven that there cannot be other explanations.

Now you show numerous photos in an earlier post in this thread that supposedly prove that "There is no curvature whatsoever".

The following screenshots of the Bathurst Lighthouse on Rottnest Island are taken from Avonmore Tce,  Cottesloe Western Australia.

Bathurst Lighthouse from 6 ft
The screenshots are from an earlier version of this video:

Bathurst Lighthouse - The fastest flat Earth destroyer in the West.

  • If the ocean is flat, why is far more visible from 100 ft above sea-level than when 6 ft above sea-level.
    It does look as though a "bulge of water" is between the camera and Rottnest Island.

  • The focal centre of the lamp on the lighthouse is also 100 ft above sea-level so if the earth were flat that lamp would be at eye-level.
    On the flat earth the we are told that "however high you ascend - the horizon will rise to your eye level."
    But  in this case the horizon clearly does not "rise eye level".

    So, why doesn’t the horizon rise to eye-level as it should if the ocean were flat?
The distance of the lighthouse from the beach is 20 km.
So what hides Bathurst Island and part of the lighthouse  and what causes a clean sharp horizon closer than the lighthouse?

And here is another:

The nearer ship is 16.7 km from the camera, the farther ship's containers are is still very visible but most of the shIp is hidden behind "something".
And here we have a huge bulk ore carrier quite visible:

The foreground ship - EPIC - was moored at [-34.3693, 151.0004].
The camera was at location is -34.347 150.921  at 10m ASL.
Collins Rock, in the suburb of Woonona NSW.
So the nearer ship, the EPIC, was 16.7 km from the camera and the farther ship, the container ship was 26.0 km from the camera.
So what hides the far container ship and what causes a clean sharp horizon closer than the ship?

There are two counterexamples with information about distance camera height and elevation.

Your case for "There is no curvature whatsoever" is invalidated!

They also could not handle the new radical chronology of history.

Here is the global algorithms for the Riemann zeta function thread:

You have not proven that there cannot be other explanations.

Is this supposed to be a joke on your part? By all means, please PROVIDE an explanation; if you cannot, and since you cannot, you must accept the inevitable conclusion: the identity of the third body involved in a solar eclipse cannot be the Moon.

What? The Bathurst lighthouse and container ships?

It is the quality of the camera itself which cannot capture the ENTIRE view. You bring a better quality photographic equipment and everything will come into view. No counterexamples forthcoming from you at all.

Let me show you how it's done.

Let us go to St. Catharines.

ROGERS CENTRE: SKY DOME clearly visible in the photograph; however IT PROVES THE FLAT EARTH THEORY DIRECTLY AND EXACTLY.


Height of Sky Dome: 86 meters, the building itself can be seen without any terrestrial refraction in the photograph, but we will include 10 meters, for the sake of the discussion; that is, the influence of the refraction will be some 10 meters...


Two other photographs, taken right there, on the same beach:

http://valdodge.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/pirate-ship-5137.jpg
http://valdodge.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/mirage-across-the-lake-5112.jpg

The altitude of the photographer can be easily estimated to be at or around 10 meters (if we would ascend to some 20 meters, that would mean that we are on top of a five-story building; certainly not the case here, as we can see from the photographs themselves; I would estimate some 5 meters, but we will go to 10 meters).

On a round earth, taking refraction into account, and ascending to some 10 meters, it would still be impossible to see the rooftop of the Sky Dome.

In order to see the roof top of the Sky Dome, we would have to ascend to at least 20 meters, that is, on top of a five story building; as we can see from the photographs taken right there, we are right on the St. Catharines beach itself.

Data for St. Catharines, Lake Ontario, distance to Toronto, 60 km:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)

3 - 150.5

5 - 138

10 - 117.5


Now, the fact that the lower portion of a building/ship cannot be seen in some photographs is a result of the quality of the camera used:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/83867796/ (with a better camera, more details become visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/ (and the rooftop of the Sky Dome very visible, completely impossible on a round earth)

I took the GLOBAL SAGNAC effect formula right into the lair of the relativists, but they couldn't handle me, so the thread was closed.

They also could not handle the new radical chronology of history.
No they ridiculed your "radical chronology of history" because it's rubbish and your Voodoo physics that does not work!
You see a "paradox" that you cannot explain and then find your answer to it that "proves most of history was fabricated".
But again, there could easily be another explanation - possibly some mix-up in the different calendars used or something else.
You claim a "Graviton Flux Paradox".
In quantum theory, there is not even a hypothesis suggesting that a "Graviton Flux" causes a gravitational field nor that a "Photon Flux" causes an electric field.

Here is the global algorithms for the Riemann zeta function thread:
I couldn't care less about your Riemann zeta function!

Quote from: sandokhan
You have not proven that there cannot be other explanations.

Is this supposed to be a joke on your part?
I do not have to! You are the one claiming it is "proof" so the onus on you is to prove "that there cannot be other explanations" before YOU claim it is proof!

Quote from: sandokhan
What? The Bathurst lighthouse and container ships?

It is the quality of the camera itself which cannot capture the ENTIRE view. You bring a better quality photographic equipment and everything will come into view. No counterexamples forthcoming from you at all.
Rubbish, look again! And I'm not trying to "prove" anything at all - just to show that there might be other explanations!

So, if the ocean is flat, why is far more visible from 100 ft above sea-level than when 6 ft above sea-level.
It does look as though a "bulge of water" is between the camera and Rottnest Island.

And the focal centre of the lamp on the lighthouse is also 100 ft above sea-level so if the earth were flat that lamp would be at eye-level.
On the flat earth we are told that "however high you ascend - the horizon will rise to your eye level." but it provably is not! Why?
But in this case the horizon clearly does not "rise eye level".

The distance of the lighthouse from the beach is 20 km.
So what hides Bathurst Island and part of the lighthouse and what causes a clean sharp horizon closer than the lighthouse?

No, that is NOT impossible on a Globe earth at all - there could be and often are other reasons especially with photos close to the surface of cold water!

And here we have a huge bulk ore carrier quite visible:
(https://i.resimyukle.xyz/bOxy40.jpg)
         And a container vessel with the hull hidden behind something:
(https://i.resimyukle.xyz/H5Pzfb.jpg)
Please explain how any camera better than a Nikon P-900 could show that any differently!
All of the hull of that container ship is hidden behind a sharp horizon - no better camera or greater magnification could make more visible.

Trying to "prove the earth flat or round" by observations of short (tens of kilometres) curvature measurements is too unreliable to put much weight on.

Something huge disappearing and then reappearing it somewhat better evidence - like this!
If the earth were flat I can't see how the sun (and moon, planets and stars) could appear to be hidden "behind something" and slowly rise up top first as in this video (click anywhere, it links to a video):

LHG-0697 - Sunset Karumba 20070808 06.25.29, 300 mm

But I'm trying to prove nothing just to show that your claim of proof is quite fallacious because there are other explanations as I have shown.

Your claims might be evidence but certainly not proofs!
And in science theories are  never "proven" though in many cases, like the Globe earth, they might be regarded as "Beyond a Reasonable Doubt".

Had they not closed the two threads, I would have demolished their forum for good.

They had no answers for the Gauss Easter formula.

None at all.

Nor for the maps which feature Pompeii as a city in full activity in the period 1570 AD - 1725 AD.

For St. Catharines I provided the exact distances and figures.

I win.

As for the other images/videos, the explanation is very simple: even the Nikon camera could not capture the entire visual target (the second boat, as an example).


Now, you have mentioned here "bulge in the water".

Can you explain how trillions of billions of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

You have never done so, nor can you provide any kind of an explanation.

Please explain how a graviton emitted by the iron/nickel core interacts with a graviton released by lake Ontario.

If you cannot, it means you believe in pure magic.

Explain how the ocean near Rottnest Island stays in place on the outer surface of a sphere.

How in the world can you believe in such a preposterous hypothesis, where water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

Please explain the attractive mechanism.

How so? The camera somehow makes the Rogers center and the bottom 1/3 of the CN Tower magically disappear behind a wall of water? How does it do that?  How does it know to not capture the portion of the entire object that should be hidden on on a round earth? How is that possible?

Look again, where did Rogers center and the bottom 1/3 of the CN Tower go? How did they get behind the water?

Here is the video you posted on the two container ships:



THE AUTHOR OF THE VIDEO REFUSED TO OFFER ANY DETAILS AS TO THE DISTANCE INVOLVED, OR THE HEIGHT WHERE THE PHOTOGRAPH WAS TAKEN.

Please read from the comments section.

Data Lore says:

Good video but lacks information even though some has been given through the comments but people always want to know : Your viewer height from sea level , distance to the objects(in this case ships) name/type of ships , date taken and time etc
All this information is best to have especially when you title it "Debunk Flat Earth" rather hard to do that when you have given no information to work out anything is it?


Here is how the author of the video responded:

Distance to the boats is irrelevant. Next you would need to ask what the containers are carrying, which would determine the draught, which would affect how much of the ship you can see.. Fact of the matter is that the hull is almost entirely obscured from view because of the curvature of the earth...


Incredible!

And it gets better.


Data Lore says:

Distance to the boat is extremely important , with your viewer height of 10mtrs and knowing how far the boat is you can use that to find out how much earth curve drop there should be E.G viewer height 10 meter distance 30 miles thats would be Refracted Hidden= 287.4 Feet
So how far away the boat was is important.


Again, the author of the video responds in this manner:

+data lore, I appreciate that these technical details are important at some level, but I refuse to discuss these with flat earthers.


Data Lore points out:

:-) well you have gone from "Distance to the boats is irrelevant" to " I appreciate that these technical details are important at some level"

Well you can understand my confusion when you call it " Nikon P900 debunks flat earth (again)..." Its easy to assume you are into debunking flat earth .
Well like I said nice video , and I was not saying you should know all this information just pointing out that people will ask you for more information because they are using it as proof of curve and they need the details .


Just like rabinoz, here is how the author of the video responds:

+Data Lore, I think we are primarily on the same page.. Those details are just not important to me in observing the earths curvature.


Another viewer said this:

This debunks nothing! Its doesnt show how the closer ship looks before he zoomed in and if the further ship was even visual. That he doesnt show the actual zooming in, says everything! ; )


This video does nothing. You have to then zoom all the way in on that cargo ship and see if you can then see the bottom. That’s what they do in the other videos. I was waiting for it.


SO, NOTHING AT ALL.

What are you talking about, the locations of the ships and the observer as well as the observers height is right in the description of the video:

The background ship called CONTI LYON, and at SEVEN pm,  that ship was at [-34.44074, 151.18053].
The foreground ship - EPIC - was moored at [-34.3693, 151.0004].
The camera was at location is -34.347 150.921  at 10m ASL
Collins Rock, in the suburb of Woonona NSW.


Also, you didn't answer my question. How are the Rogers center and the bottom 1/3 of the CN Tower magically hidden behind a wall of water?

As for the video with the lighthouse, please read the comments section: the viewers were not convinced at all, in fact, they bring up very interesting points.




Bathurst Lighthouse video:



The comments section DESTROYS THE VIDEO.

Please read.

Wolfie6020 who knows when this vid was taken? Are you seriously asking us to take your word for it? Because you offer zero proof of the date.

What you have admitted in passing is that the swell does indeed invalidate your vid. Unlike your halfwit followers who don’t understand the importance of the swell off Rottnest, you do know. My point is that the swell can be up to 4.5m at various times of the year. Which you completely fail to mention in any of your Bathurst Lighthouse vids. Very deceptive and it has tricked your zombie minded followers

Btw why spell metres, meters? Team Wolfie is a NASA shill account. Uses American spelling.

Better lift your game, this vid is an epic fail.


HERE IS A REAL VIDEO ON FLAT EARTH LIGHTHOUSES:




So, you wanna talk about lighthouses, do you?

LET US INCREASE THE DISTANCE TO 128 KM.


 
Grand Haven Daily Tribune   April 3, 1925

COAST GUARDS SEE MILWAUKEE LIGHTS GLEAM

Captain Wm. J. Preston and Crew See Lights of Milwaukee

and Racine Clearly From Surf Boat

ANSWER TO FLARE

Crew Runs Into Lake in Search For Flashing Torch

Grand Haven Daily Tribune   April 3, 1925

Captain Wm. J. Preston and his U. S. Coast Guard crew at Grand Haven harbor witnessed a strange natural phenomenon last night, when they saw clearly the lights of both Milwaukee and Racine, shining across the lake.  As far as known this is the first time that such a freak condition has prevailed here.

 The phenomena was first noticed at shortly after seven o’clock last night, when the lookout called the keeper’s attention to what seemed to be a light flaring out on the lake.  Captain Preston examined the light, and was of the impression that some ship out in the lake was “torching” for assistance.

Launch Power Boat

   He ordered the big power boat launched and with the crew started on a cruise into the lake to locate, if possible, the cause of the light.  The power boat was headed due west and after running a distance of six or seven miles the light became clearer, but seemed to be but little nearer.  The crew kept on going, however, and at a distance of about ten and twelve miles out, a beautiful panorama of light unfolded before the eyes of the coast guards.

 Captain Preston decided that the flare came from the government lighthouse at Windy Point at Racine.  Being familiar with the Racine lights the keeper was able to identify several of the short lights at Racine, Wis.

Saw Milwaukee Also

   A little further north another set of lights were plainly visible.  Captain Preston knowing the Milwaukee lights well, easily distinguished them and identified them as the Milwaukee lights.  The lights along Juneau Park water front, the illumination of the buildings near the park and the Northwestern Railway station were clearly visible from the Coast Guard boat.  So clearly did the lights stand out that it seemed as though the boat was within a few miles of Milwaukee harbor. 

   Convinced that the phenomenon was a mirage, or a condition due to some peculiarity of the atmosphere, the keeper ordered the boat back to the station.  The lights remained visible for the greater part of the run, and the flare of the Windy Point light house could be seen after the crew reached the station here.


DISTANCE GRAND HAVEN TO MILWAUKEE: OVER 80 MILES (128 KM).

http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/images/twomichigans2a.gif (http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/images/twomichigans2a.gif)


Windy Point Lighthouse:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg/800px-Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg/800px-Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg)

The lighthouse stands 108 feet (33 m) tall

THE CURVATURE FOR 128 KM IS 321 METERS.

Using the well known formula for the visual obstacle, let us calculate its value:

h = 3 meters BD = 1163 METERS

h = 5 meters BD = 1129 METERS

h = 10 meters BD = 1068 METERS

h = 20 meters BD = 984 METERS

h = 50 meters BD = 827.6 METERS

h = 100 meters BD = 667.6 METERS


No terrestrial refraction formula/looming formula can account for this extraordinary proof that the surface across lake Michigan is flat.

In fact: http://ireland.iol.ie/~geniet/eng/refract.htm# (http://ireland.iol.ie/~geniet/eng/refract.htm#)

If we use h = 50 for the observer, and 140 for the distant object height, we get a negative answer: no way it could be seen over a 128 km distance; while the actual data for the account is h = 5 m, and d = 40 m.


Looming/modified lapse rate:

http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/GF/explain/atmos_refr/altitudes.html (http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/GF/explain/atmos_refr/altitudes.html)

The formula used here does not recognize the change in the range of temperature values, nor do we know if it takes into consideration the very basic formula I posted earlier for the visual obstacle: http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=28196.msg674444#msg674444 (http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=28196.msg674444#msg674444) - however, it is an excellent place to start and to explore the effect of looming/ducting on the visual target being observed.

Let us use several values, starting with the value of 15 C for that day (Milwaukee/Racine/Holland/Grand Haven) and increasing the value for the target by 1-3 degrees.

For a value of 15 C overall we get of course a negative altitude value of the target.

For a value of 16 C (for the target) we get, again, a negative altitude value for the target (−0.317 degrees of arc) - target is hidden by horizon

For a value of 17 C (for the target) we get: −0.207 degrees of arc, target is hidden by horizon

For a value of 18 C (for the target) we get: −0.098 degrees of arc, target is hidden by horizon


Let us decrease the value to 12 C.

Increasing the value for the target to 15 C degrees, again, we get negative values. This would also correspond to a huge k = 0.613 value.

From the textbook on atmospheric science:

 "So the ray curvature for an arbitrary lapse rate  γ K/m will be

k  = ( 0.034 − γ ) / 0.154

where we take γ to be positive if the temperature decreases with height, and a positive curvature means a ray concave toward the Earth.

Example 1: the Standard Atmosphere:

In the Standard Atmosphere, the lapse rate is 6.5°/km or  γ = 0.0065 K/m. The numerator of the formula above becomes .034 − .0065 = .0275, so the ratio k is about 1/5.6 or 0.179. In other words, the ray curvature is not quite 18% that of the Earth; the radius of curvature of the ray is about 5.6 times the Earth's radius.

Example 2: free convection:

In free convection, the (adiabatic) lapse rate is about 10.6°/km or  γ = 0.0106 K/m. The numerator of the formula above becomes .034 − .0106 = .0234, so the ratio k is about 1/6.6 or 0.152. In other words, the ray curvature is about 15% that of the Earth; the radius of curvature of the ray is about 6.6 times the Earth's radius. This is close to the condition of the atmosphere near the ground in the middle of the day, when most surveying is done; the value calculated is close to the values found in practical survey work."


Moreover, as we have seen, the light from Windy Point was continuously observed, during the approach, and during the return to the station:

The power boat was headed due west and after running a distance of six or seven miles the light became clearer, but seemed to be but little nearer.  The crew kept on going, however, and at a distance of about ten and twelve miles out, a beautiful panorama of light unfolded before the eyes of the coast guards.

The keeper ordered the boat back to the station.  The lights remained visible for the greater part of the run, and the flare of the Windy Point light house could be seen after the crew reached the station here.



Now, the calculation for the most pronounced form of looming: ducting.

However, ducting requires the value for the ray curvature, k, to be greater than or equal to 1.

This amounts to at least a five degree difference in temperature.

With 10C in Grand Haven (or Holland) and 15C in Racine, we get k = 1.182.


For the very same geographical/hydrographical conditions, for the same latitude in question, for cities located on the opposite shores of Lake Michigan, it is absolutely impossible to have a five degree difference, at the very same instant of time - moreover, looming/ducting do not apply to the two cases presented here:

FURTHERMORE, as we have seen, the light from the lighthouse located in Racine was seen all of the time.

For the second case exemplifed here, see below, Mr. Kanis did see the very shape of the buildings: in the case of ducting/looming a very distorted image would appear making it instantly recognizable:

(https://image.ibb.co/mBT0co/m12.jpg)

'As twilight deepened, there were more and more lights.'

Bringing out a pair of binoculars, Kanis said he was able to make out the shape of some buildings.

'With the binoculars we could make out three different communities,' Kanis said.

According to one Coast Guard crewman, it is possible to see city lights across the lake at very specific times.

Currently a Coast Guard crewman stationed in Holland, Todd Reed has worked on the east side of Lake Michigan for 30 years and said he's been able to see lights across the lake at least a dozen times.

The highest building in Milwaukee has a height of 183 meters, the difference from h = 5 meters in altitude being 946 meters, and those residents saw the buildings from THREE DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES, two of which have buildings whose heights measure way under 183 meters.

Therefore, the only way those buildings could be seen, given the 128 km distance, would be if the surface of Lake Michigan is completely flat.

THE TALLEST BUILDING IN RACINE IS THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE, 40 METERS; IT WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THIS COURTHOUSE FROM 128 KM DISTANCE, FROM HOLLAND.


On Memorial Day, it was 60 F degrees (15 C) in Milwaukee on that day.

What are you talking about, the locations of the ships and the observer as well as the observers height is right in the description of the video:

The background ship called CONTI LYON, and at SEVEN pm,  that ship was at [-34.44074, 151.18053].
The foreground ship - EPIC - was moored at [-34.3693, 151.0004].
The camera was at location is -34.347 150.921  at 10m ASL
Collins Rock, in the suburb of Woonona NSW.

Also, you didn't answer my question. How are the Rogers center and the bottom 1/3 of the CN Tower magically hidden behind a wall of water?


THOSE DETAILS WERE ADDED LATER!!!

At first, the author of the video REFUSED TO OFFER ANY DETAILS, as can be clearly seen from his own comments.

Pressed by his viewers he offered these figures which nobody can verify at all.

Remember what he said:

Distance to the boats is irrelevant. Next you would need to ask what the containers are carrying, which would determine the draught, which would affect how much of the ship you can see.. Fact of the matter is that the hull is almost entirely obscured from view because of the curvature of the earth...

+data lore, I appreciate that these technical details are important at some level, but I refuse to discuss these with flat earthers.

+Data Lore, I think we are primarily on the same page.. Those details are just not important to me in observing the earths curvature.


So, cut out the BS on the figures he offered.


The answer is very simple: the camera cannot capture the entire visual obstacle, certainly the bottom of the image will not appear due to this very fact.

That is why I posted several flickr images, each of which zooms further, so that finally we have the Sky Dome visible.


The figures are very clear.

From the beach in St. Catharines, 50 km distance to Toronto, on the beach, no Sky Dome could have been visible.

I don't know when the author added the coordinates, but how would they have been verified regardless of when he added them? And I agree, why do they matter. Either that ship is sinking or it's behind a curve. How far away doesn't matter.

The answer is very simple: the camera cannot capture the entire visual obstacle, certainly the bottom of the image will not appear due to this very fact.

So describe for me in the image you presented why the bottom of the objects, (rogers center and CN Tower) are replaced with a wall of water? What properties in a camera would arbitrarily decide to do so? What insufficiencies in a camera would decide to do so? And do so in accordance with a curved earth observation. Please, do explain how a camera would do that.

Look again, why is there a wall of water hiding the rogers center and the bottom of the cn tower? That is not the camera doing that:

As for the video with the lighthouse, please read the comments section: the viewers were not convinced at all, in fact, they bring up very interesting points.




Bathurst Lighthouse video:



The comments section DESTROYS THE VIDEO.

Please read.

Wolfie6020 who knows when this vid was taken? Are you seriously asking us to take your word for it? Because you offer zero proof of the date.

What you have admitted in passing is that the swell does indeed invalidate your vid. Unlike your halfwit followers who don’t understand the importance of the swell off Rottnest, you do know. My point is that the swell can be up to 4.5m at various times of the year. Which you completely fail to mention in any of your Bathurst Lighthouse vids. Very deceptive and it has tricked your zombie minded followers

Btw why spell metres, meters? Team Wolfie is a NASA shill account. Uses American spelling.

Better lift your game, this vid is an epic fail.

I'm simply showing that there are other explanations and a possible explanation for your photos is anomalous refraction, which is not uncommon over water.

Why is it acceptable for FE to base entire arguments on photographs,  often photographs presenting images different to reality, ie sinking buildings. Yet if I were to produce an image from low orbit or space of the earth's curve its CGI?

That's no problem. It's the "conspiracy" ;D!
And still there's more on these "Conspiracy Theorists", BBC NEWS:Technology, YouTube aids flat earth conspiracy theorists, research suggests (https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-47279253).

Yet there's more to follow ;):
Quote from: The Flat Earth Society Wiki
Place of the Conspiracy in FET (http://theflatearthsociety.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Place+of+the+Conspiracy+in+FET)
The existence of 'The Conspiracy' is a consequence of the FET. Virtually no one begins with 'The Conspiracy' and develops a belief in the Flat Earth Theory. Flat Earthers starts with the knowledge that the earth is flat, as they believe that all the evidence which they are personally able to collect and verify confirms this fact. As a consequence all the evidence to the contrary, much of which they are unable to personally test/verify is viewed as being false. The existence of such a huge quantity of false information indicates the existence of the conspiracy.

Essentially the reasoning boils down to -

P1) If personally unverifiable evidence contradicts an obvious truth then the evidence is fabricated
P2) The FET (Flat Earth Theory) is an obvious truth
P3) There is personally unverifiable evidence that contradicts the FET
C1) The unverifiable evidence that contradicts the FET is fabricated evidence
P4) If there is large amounts of fabricated evidence then there must be a conspiracy to fabricate it
P5) There is a large amount of fabricated evidence (see C1)
C2) There must be a conspiracy to fabricate it.

If there is no conspiracy there is no possibility that the earth could be flat and stationary.

Again, for the nth time, you come here with very poor arguments (not to mention the photos and the videos).

The author of the container ship videos REFUSED to offer any details.

He REFUSED TO ZOOM IN for the SECOND CONTAINER SHIP.

Please read.

This debunks nothing! Its doesnt show how the closer ship looks before he zoomed in and if the further ship was even visual. That he doesnt show the actual zooming in, says everything! ; )


This video does nothing. You have to then zoom all the way in on that cargo ship and see if you can then see the bottom. That’s what they do in the other videos. I was waiting for it.


The video proofs NOTHING.


The lighthouse video was DEBUNKED in the comments section.

HERE IS THE REAL DEAL.

A VIDEO WHERE THE THE ALTITUDE IS PROGRESSIVELY DECREASED IN ORDER TO SEE THE VISUAL OBSTACLE.

FULL FLAT EARTH PROOF IN FULL VIEW:





LAKE MICHIGAN LIGHTHOUSES, 128 KM DISTANCE

 
Grand Haven Daily Tribune   April 3, 1925

COAST GUARDS SEE MILWAUKEE LIGHTS GLEAM

Captain Wm. J. Preston and Crew See Lights of Milwaukee

and Racine Clearly From Surf Boat

ANSWER TO FLARE

Crew Runs Into Lake in Search For Flashing Torch

Grand Haven Daily Tribune   April 3, 1925

Captain Wm. J. Preston and his U. S. Coast Guard crew at Grand Haven harbor witnessed a strange natural phenomenon last night, when they saw clearly the lights of both Milwaukee and Racine, shining across the lake.  As far as known this is the first time that such a freak condition has prevailed here.

 The phenomena was first noticed at shortly after seven o’clock last night, when the lookout called the keeper’s attention to what seemed to be a light flaring out on the lake.  Captain Preston examined the light, and was of the impression that some ship out in the lake was “torching” for assistance.

Launch Power Boat

   He ordered the big power boat launched and with the crew started on a cruise into the lake to locate, if possible, the cause of the light.  The power boat was headed due west and after running a distance of six or seven miles the light became clearer, but seemed to be but little nearer.  The crew kept on going, however, and at a distance of about ten and twelve miles out, a beautiful panorama of light unfolded before the eyes of the coast guards.

 Captain Preston decided that the flare came from the government lighthouse at Windy Point at Racine.  Being familiar with the Racine lights the keeper was able to identify several of the short lights at Racine, Wis.

Saw Milwaukee Also

   A little further north another set of lights were plainly visible.  Captain Preston knowing the Milwaukee lights well, easily distinguished them and identified them as the Milwaukee lights.  The lights along Juneau Park water front, the illumination of the buildings near the park and the Northwestern Railway station were clearly visible from the Coast Guard boat.  So clearly did the lights stand out that it seemed as though the boat was within a few miles of Milwaukee harbor. 

   Convinced that the phenomenon was a mirage, or a condition due to some peculiarity of the atmosphere, the keeper ordered the boat back to the station.  The lights remained visible for the greater part of the run, and the flare of the Windy Point light house could be seen after the crew reached the station here.


DISTANCE GRAND HAVEN TO MILWAUKEE: OVER 80 MILES (128 KM).

http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/images/twomichigans2a.gif (http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/images/twomichigans2a.gif)


Windy Point Lighthouse:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg/800px-Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg/800px-Wind_Point_Lighthouse_071104_edit2.jpg)

The lighthouse stands 108 feet (33 m) tall

THE CURVATURE FOR 128 KM IS 321 METERS.

Using the well known formula for the visual obstacle, let us calculate its value:

h = 3 meters BD = 1163 METERS

h = 5 meters BD = 1129 METERS

h = 10 meters BD = 1068 METERS

h = 20 meters BD = 984 METERS

h = 50 meters BD = 827.6 METERS

h = 100 meters BD = 667.6 METERS


No terrestrial refraction formula/looming formula can account for this extraordinary proof that the surface across lake Michigan is flat.

In fact: http://ireland.iol.ie/~geniet/eng/refract.htm# (http://ireland.iol.ie/~geniet/eng/refract.htm#)

If we use h = 50 for the observer, and 140 for the distant object height, we get a negative answer: no way it could be seen over a 128 km distance; while the actual data for the account is h = 5 m, and d = 40 m.


Looming/modified lapse rate:

http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/GF/explain/atmos_refr/altitudes.html (http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/GF/explain/atmos_refr/altitudes.html)

The formula used here does not recognize the change in the range of temperature values, nor do we know if it takes into consideration the very basic formula I posted earlier for the visual obstacle: http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=28196.msg674444#msg674444 (http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=28196.msg674444#msg674444) - however, it is an excellent place to start and to explore the effect of looming/ducting on the visual target being observed.

Let us use several values, starting with the value of 15 C for that day (Milwaukee/Racine/Holland/Grand Haven) and increasing the value for the target by 1-3 degrees.

For a value of 15 C overall we get of course a negative altitude value of the target.

For a value of 16 C (for the target) we get, again, a negative altitude value for the target (−0.317 degrees of arc) - target is hidden by horizon

For a value of 17 C (for the target) we get: −0.207 degrees of arc, target is hidden by horizon

For a value of 18 C (for the target) we get: −0.098 degrees of arc, target is hidden by horizon


Let us decrease the value to 12 C.

Increasing the value for the target to 15 C degrees, again, we get negative values. This would also correspond to a huge k = 0.613 value.

From the textbook on atmospheric science:

 "So the ray curvature for an arbitrary lapse rate  γ K/m will be

k  = ( 0.034 − γ ) / 0.154

where we take γ to be positive if the temperature decreases with height, and a positive curvature means a ray concave toward the Earth.

Example 1: the Standard Atmosphere:

In the Standard Atmosphere, the lapse rate is 6.5°/km or  γ = 0.0065 K/m. The numerator of the formula above becomes .034 − .0065 = .0275, so the ratio k is about 1/5.6 or 0.179. In other words, the ray curvature is not quite 18% that of the Earth; the radius of curvature of the ray is about 5.6 times the Earth's radius.

Example 2: free convection:

In free convection, the (adiabatic) lapse rate is about 10.6°/km or  γ = 0.0106 K/m. The numerator of the formula above becomes .034 − .0106 = .0234, so the ratio k is about 1/6.6 or 0.152. In other words, the ray curvature is about 15% that of the Earth; the radius of curvature of the ray is about 6.6 times the Earth's radius. This is close to the condition of the atmosphere near the ground in the middle of the day, when most surveying is done; the value calculated is close to the values found in practical survey work."


Moreover, as we have seen, the light from Windy Point was continuously observed, during the approach, and during the return to the station:

The power boat was headed due west and after running a distance of six or seven miles the light became clearer, but seemed to be but little nearer.  The crew kept on going, however, and at a distance of about ten and twelve miles out, a beautiful panorama of light unfolded before the eyes of the coast guards.

The keeper ordered the boat back to the station.  The lights remained visible for the greater part of the run, and the flare of the Windy Point light house could be seen after the crew reached the station here.



Now, the calculation for the most pronounced form of looming: ducting.

However, ducting requires the value for the ray curvature, k, to be greater than or equal to 1.

This amounts to at least a five degree difference in temperature.

With 10C in Grand Haven (or Holland) and 15C in Racine, we get k = 1.182.


For the very same geographical/hydrographical conditions, for the same latitude in question, for cities located on the opposite shores of Lake Michigan, it is absolutely impossible to have a five degree difference, at the very same instant of time - moreover, looming/ducting do not apply to the two cases presented here:

FURTHERMORE, as we have seen, the light from the lighthouse located in Racine was seen all of the time.

For the second case exemplifed here, see below, Mr. Kanis did see the very shape of the buildings: in the case of ducting/looming a very distorted image would appear making it instantly recognizable:

(https://image.ibb.co/irqVco/m11.jpg)
(https://image.ibb.co/mBT0co/m12.jpg)

'As twilight deepened, there were more and more lights.'

Bringing out a pair of binoculars, Kanis said he was able to make out the shape of some buildings.

'With the binoculars we could make out three different communities,' Kanis said.

According to one Coast Guard crewman, it is possible to see city lights across the lake at very specific times.

Currently a Coast Guard crewman stationed in Holland, Todd Reed has worked on the east side of Lake Michigan for 30 years and said he's been able to see lights across the lake at least a dozen times.

The highest building in Milwaukee has a height of 183 meters, the difference from h = 5 meters in altitude being 946 meters, and those residents saw the buildings from THREE DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES, two of which have buildings whose heights measure way under 183 meters.

Therefore, the only way those buildings could be seen, given the 128 km distance, would be if the surface of Lake Michigan is completely flat.

THE TALLEST BUILDING IN RACINE IS THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE, 40 METERS; IT WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THIS COURTHOUSE FROM 128 KM DISTANCE, FROM HOLLAND.


On Memorial Day, it was 60 F degrees (15 C) in Milwaukee on that day.

How are the Rogers center and the bottom 1/3 of the CN Tower magically hidden behind a wall of water?

I already did.

Now, the fact that the lower portion of a building/ship cannot be seen in some photographs is a result of the quality of the camera used:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/ (and the rooftop of the Sky Dome very visible, completely impossible on a round earth)

ALWAYS, the bottom of the images/pictures will disappear first. Progressively, if you zoom in with a better quality camera you will get to see more and more of the visual obstacle.


Now, it is your turn to offer explanations.

You have mentioned here "bulge in the water".

Can you explain how trillions of billions of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

You have never done so, nor can you provide any kind of an explanation.

Please explain how a graviton emitted by the iron/nickel core interacts with a graviton released by lake Ontario.

If you cannot, it means you believe in pure magic.

Explain how the ocean near Rottnest Island stays in place on the outer surface of a sphere.

Not really, a couple of things:

- The author uses a drone to gauge the lighthouse tower height above sea level - He claims 95 feet. When, in actuality, it is 128 feet (39 meters) above sea level, and we assume MSL, according to: http://www.visitcostadelsol.com/explore/monuments-and-areas-of-tourist-interest/lighthouse-of-torrox-p33601

- When he is doing his observations, the first is at what he claims is 6' observation level. On a flat earth we should see everything above the blue line. But we don't, we only see above the red line. What's hiding the lighthouse between the blue and red lines? Is that some sort of magical camera effect you keep referring to yet never explain?

Really?



The height is clearly specified in at 1:34 in the video, using the AUTORIDAD PORTUARIA DE MALAGA data, that is, THEIR OWN PRECISE LOCAL DATA, not google searches like you did.

What? 128 feet? 39 meters?

Take a look at the lighthouse itself in the video, where are the 14 meters from the bottom of the lighthouse basement to the sea? Are you dreaming?

14 meters is the height of a four story building.

Please do not bother your viewers with BS data again.

No, you didn't. You've made up some sort of camera magic where the "lower portion of a building/ship cannot be seen in some photographs" and is replaced by water. How does that work? Please explain the mechanics of magic water application to images.

Why would the bottom of the cn tower be chosen by the camera to be removed and replaced by a wall of water. Using two of your images,  please explain how a camera does this and coincidently does so conforming to a spherical earth observation:

Can you explain how trillions of billions of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

You have never done so, nor can you provide any kind of an explanation.

Please explain how a graviton emitted by the iron/nickel core interacts with a graviton released by lake Ontario.

If you cannot, it means you believe in pure magic.

Explain how the ocean near Rottnest Island stays in place on the outer surface of a sphere.

How in the world can you believe in such a preposterous hypothesis, where water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

Please explain the attractive mechanism.

Gravity.

At the risk of sounding like a troll

Why is it acceptable for FE to base entire arguments on photographs,  often photographs presenting images different to reality, ie sinking buildings. Yet if I were to produce an image from low orbit or space of the earth's curve its CGI?
That's no problem. It's the "conspiracy" ;D!
And still there's more on these "Conspiracy Theorists", BBC NEWS:Technology, YouTube aids flat earth conspiracy theorists, research suggests (https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-47279253).

Yet there's more to follow ;):
Quote from: The Flat Earth Society Wiki
Place of the Conspiracy in FET (http://theflatearthsociety.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Place+of+the+Conspiracy+in+FET)
The existence of 'The Conspiracy' is a consequence of the FET. Virtually no one begins with 'The Conspiracy' and develops a belief in the Flat Earth Theory. Flat Earthers starts with the knowledge that the earth is flat, as they believe that all the evidence which they are personally able to collect and verify confirms this fact. As a consequence all the evidence to the contrary, much of which they are unable to personally test/verify is viewed as being false. The existence of such a huge quantity of false information indicates the existence of the conspiracy.

Essentially the reasoning boils down to -

P1) If personally unverifiable evidence contradicts an obvious truth then the evidence is fabricated
P2) The FET (Flat Earth Theory) is an obvious truth
P3) There is personally unverifiable evidence that contradicts the FET
C1) The unverifiable evidence that contradicts the FET is fabricated evidence
P4) If there is large amounts of fabricated evidence then there must be a conspiracy to fabricate it
P5) There is a large amount of fabricated evidence (see C1)
C2) There must be a conspiracy to fabricate it.

If there is no conspiracy there is no possibility that the earth could be flat and stationary.

Wow

Gravity.

Please EXPLAIN THE ATTRACTIVE MECHANISM.

Please explain the mechanism.


Why would the bottom of the cn tower be chosen by the camera to be removed and replaced by a wall of water.

No shit.

Go ahead and do your own research in camera photography to get the well-known answer: always, the bottom of an image disappears before everything else.

Let me prove it.

Let us go to St. Catharines.


https://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/

ROGERS CENTRE: SKY DOME clearly visible in the photograph; however IT PROVES THE FLAT EARTH THEORY DIRECTLY AND EXACTLY.


Height of Sky Dome: 86 meters, the building itself can be seen without any terrestrial refraction in the photograph, but we will include 10 meters, for the sake of the discussion; that is, the influence of the refraction will be some 10 meters...


Two other photographs, taken right there, on the same beach:

http://valdodge.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/pirate-ship-5137.jpg
http://valdodge.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/mirage-across-the-lake-5112.jpg

The altitude of the photographer can be easily estimated to be at or around 10 meters (if we would ascend to some 20 meters, that would mean that we are on top of a five-story building; certainly not the case here, as we can see from the photographs themselves; I would estimate some 5 meters, but we will go to 10 meters).

On a round earth, taking refraction into account, and ascending to some 10 meters, it would still be impossible to see the rooftop of the Sky Dome.

In order to see the roof top of the Sky Dome, we would have to ascend to at least 20 meters, that is, on top of a five story building; as we can see from the photographs taken right there, we are right on the St. Catharines beach itself.

Data for St. Catharines, Lake Ontario, distance to Toronto, 60 km:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)

3 - 150.5

5 - 138

10 - 117.5


Now, the fact that the lower portion of a building/ship cannot be seen in some photographs is a result of the quality of the camera used:


http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/150629243/ (CN Tower barely visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/83867796/ (with a better camera, more details become visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/ (and the rooftop of the Sky Dome very visible, completely impossible on a round earth)



(https://image.ibb.co/irqVco/m11.jpg)
(https://image.ibb.co/mBT0co/m12.jpg)

'As twilight deepened, there were more and more lights.'

Bringing out a pair of binoculars, Kanis said he was able to make out the shape of some buildings.

'With the binoculars we could make out three different communities,' Kanis said.

According to one Coast Guard crewman, it is possible to see city lights across the lake at very specific times.

Currently a Coast Guard crewman stationed in Holland, Todd Reed has worked on the east side of Lake Michigan for 30 years and said he's been able to see lights across the lake at least a dozen times.

The highest building in Milwaukee has a height of 183 meters, the difference from h = 5 meters in altitude being 946 meters, and those residents saw the buildings from THREE DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES, two of which have buildings whose heights measure way under 183 meters.

Therefore, the only way those buildings could be seen, given the 128 km distance, would be if the surface of Lake Michigan is completely flat.

THE TALLEST BUILDING IN RACINE IS THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE, 40 METERS; IT WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THIS COURTHOUSE FROM 128 KM DISTANCE, FROM HOLLAND.


The bottom of the buildings/lighthouse could not be seen with the naked eye.

However, with a simple pair of binoculars, almost everything could be seen.

At 1 minutes he shows the data according to, this lighthouse is 95 feet over the sea level, but that's not true, it's almost 128 feet. So i assume the rest is a failure and a proof of the round earth.

Why can't you use the quote function and why are you making it look like I wrote something I didn't? I never wrote, "So i assume the rest is a failure and a proof of the round earth."

Really?



The height is clearly specified in at 1:34 in the video, using the AUTORIDAD PORTUARIA DE MALAGA data, that is, THEIR OWN PRECISE LOCAL DATA, not google searches like you did.

What? 128 feet? 39 meters?

I gave you the link, that's what I found. I have seen elsewhere that the "focal height" is 95', which does not include the tower top. So maybe 100'.

Take a look at the lighthouse itself in the video, where are the 14 meters from the bottom of the lighthouse basement to the sea? Are you dreaming?

14 meters is the height of a four story building.

Please do not bother your viewers with BS data again.

Herein lies your problem, you have it all backwards. It's not what we can see, it's what we can't. On a flat earth, there shouldn't be a 'can't'. At 6 feet observer height, the author shows (at 4:54) that, according to is calculations, 24' is hidden yet 36.5' should be, so off by 12.5'.
Why is 24' hidden on a flat earth when no feet should be hidden?

So, in short:

- Globe Earth is incorrect by 12.5'
- Flat Earth is incorrect by 24'

Hmmm.

Faro de Torrox  is 26m above the ground and 39m above sea level. I assume the 39m is mean sea level, so it could vary with tides. Tides are not very dramatic in the Mediterranean though.

You don't really get it? Sea level, is NOT THE GROUND LEVEL.
Informations at 1:34 are correct, but they have nothing to do with sea level, there is just height of the tower and height of focal plane.
Now, i see that you're confused with height of focal plane.
This IS NOT the height of the tower above the seal level. This is height of the lamp above the mean water surface!
https://www.us-lighthouses.com/faq.php
http://www.terrypepper.com/lights/lists/focalheight.htm

So, when he's comparing level above the sea of an observer with level above the water surface of the tower's lamp, then the results are like the rest of the results of flat earth experiments. Funny.

I am a photographer and there is nothing in the pantheon of photgraphy that states that the "bottom of an image disappears before everything else." You completely made that up.

Right, let's go there and do all that. The CN tower is 553 m tall. Sky dome, 86 m. I'd say that all about fits with this image you presented to conform to a globe earth:

According to your erroneous, the "bottom of an image disappears before everything else," camera magic, that would mean the rocks at the bottom of the image should 'disappear'. Why would the camera arbitrarily single out the skyline and cover it with 80 or so meters of water and simulate a curved earth? Explain the technical camera mechanics that would cause that to happen?

In other words, pure magic.

You have any PROOF that there is such a thing as attractive gravity?

Take a look at yourself.

When asked to explain how water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere, you babble "gravity". Or the above-mentioned quote which explain nothing.

Are you actually claiming that everything is attracted to everything else?

Then, explain the mechanism.

Here is what you are saying:

put a wall of water in your image across

Again, I ask: have you lost your mind to assume that water stays curved as if by magic, and you come here to tell us that attractive gravity is a phenomenon, without ANY PROOFS AT ALL?

If you cannot explain how water stays curved on the surface of a sphere, there is nothing else to discuss here.

FE wins.


What mechanism in the camera is deciding this? What properties of a lens would cause this effect.

This would be well beyond the scope of this discussion.

That is why I told you to do your own research in this field if you are interested in findind more details.

I don't have to do any such thing once I have proven my point regarding the curvature.

YOU have to explain why we can see the rooftop of the Sky Dome where there should be none.

Here is the perfect illustration of my explanation so far (that the quality of the camera is involved):

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/83867796/ (with a better camera, more details become visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/ (and the rooftop of the Sky Dome very visible, completely impossible on a round earth)

Now, if you want/desire the TECHNICAL details as to why this happens, well then, you are on your own, that is, use your own time to research this topic; here, it is well beyond the scope of our discussion.

If you want ME to do this, you'd better pay me by the hour to do such an involved research in nonlinear optics.

39 metres = 127 feet 11.4 inch,  near enough to 128 feet!

The google searched figure is wrong.

That is why the author of the video clearly quoted the figure from the official source on the matter.

39 - 26 = 13 meters.

Please indicate where the 14 meters are in these photographs:

26 meters is the ENTIRE height, from sea level to the top of the lighthouse.

There are no 14 meters, the height of a four story building, between the base of the lighthouse and the sea.

Gravity (from Latin gravitas, meaning 'weight'), or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy—including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light—are brought toward (or gravitate toward) one another.

In other words, pure magic.

You have any PROOF that there is such a thing as attractive gravity?

Take a look at yourself.

When asked to explain how water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere, you babble "gravity". Or the above-mentioned quote which explain nothing.

Are you actually claiming that everything is attracted to everything else?

Then, explain the mechanism.

Here is what you are saying:

put a wall of water in your image across

Again, I ask: have you lost your mind to assume that water stays curved as if by magic, and you come here to tell us that attractive gravity is a phenomenon, without ANY PROOFS AT ALL?

If you cannot explain how water stays curved on the surface of a sphere, there is nothing else to discuss here.

FE wins.

Best of our understanding so far. As a scientist you know that physics is constantly striving to further this understanding,  and that fact does not refute it.

mak3m, you are trolling, again.

Your messages on this page belong to CN.

Go ahead and ask Newton, Einstein, or any other modern physicist to explain HOW attractive gravity works.

They won't be able to explain.

Here are the issues involved.

Can you explain to your readers how two gravitons attract each other? What is the mechanism of attraction?

You cannot, therefore those trillions of billions of liters of water are glued to an outer surface by pure magic.

Even pure magic cannot explain this horrendous hypothesis.

You cannot resort to general relativity: I can immediately point out how Einstein faked the 1919/1922 crucial solar eclipses data, show you the original Maxwell equations which are superluminal.

You claim that terrestrial gravity is attractive, yet you cannot explain the mechanism.

It is even worse than pure magic.

Please explain the physics to your readers.

What you are telling your readers is even worse than Aristotle's Credo Quia Absurdum Est (I believe because it is absurd).

The attractive gravity hypothesis is not even a credible fairy tale, it is even beyond the powers of pure magic to explain how four trillion billion liters of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere.

It is though the exemplification of a fanatical and dogmatic agenda which goes even beyond what organized religion has to offer.

Do you want to use gravitons?

So, how do four trillion billion liters of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

Let us examine the graviton problem. There are only two possible choices: either these gravitons were a one-time emission five billion years ago, or they are being emitted continuously by the iron/nickel core. In both cases the graviton must either consist of two kinds of particles, one which has an emissive vortex, the other one which has a receptive vortex, or a single particle with two ends consisting of an emissive vortex, while the other end has a receptive vortex.

In both cases we are dealing immediately with the defiance of the law of conservation of energy: how in the world can these vortices function after five billion years with no loss of energy?

Moreover, you have another huge problem: each object on the surface of the earth must connect to the gravitons emitted by the iron/nickel core through strings of gravitons which fit neatly and totally to each and every graviton released by the object itself. How then can that object move freely on the surface of the sphere? Obviously the strings of gravitons emitted by the iron/nickel core are not intelligent enough to know the random direction of movement of the object. Are you telling your readers that the strings of the object can slide freely from a static string of gravitons emitted by the iron/nickel core, to another with no loss of energy, not to mention the very mechanism itself?

The gases in the atmosphere do not obey any kind of an attractive law of gravity.

The gravitons cannot be used to explain attractive gravity.

There is no such thing as general relativity, or spacetime continuum.


Please explain to your readers how attractive gravitation functions. If you cannot, then what you are telling yourself and to your readers is that gravity on a spherical earth is governed by pure magic.


Here is Newton himself:

5. Now, from the fourth supposition it follows, that when two bodies approaching one another come so near together as to make the aether between them begin to rarefy, they will begin to have a reluctance from being brought nearer together, and an endeavour to recede from one another; which reluctance and endeavour will increase as they come nearer together, because thereby they cause the interjacent aether to rarefy more and more. But at length, when they come so near together that the excess of pressure of the external aether which surrounds the bodies, above that of the rarefied aether, which is between them, is so great as to overcome the reluctance which the bodies have from being brought together; then will that excess of pressure drive them with violence together, and make them adhere strongly to one another, as was said in the second supposition.


PRESSURE GRAVITY, according to Newton two objects are attracted to each other if they receive pressure from the outside.

Brilliant, isn't it?

There are no 14 meters, the height of a four story building, between the base of the lighthouse and the sea.

I haven't measured it myself, but I found the 39m from sea level in the wikipedia and another source.

The only official source I found is this one:
https://www.puertosdeandalucia.es/es/documentacion/arquitectura-y-patrimonio/item/518-faro-de-torrox

Quote
Descripción: Construido sobre una torre circulas de piedra de 23 metros sobre un edificio rectangular dedicado entre otros menesteres a vivienda y con un alcance de luz de 15 millas, servía para marcar el fondeadero que era muy utilizado por buques de diversos portes, utilizando para su iluminación aceite de oliva, parafina y petróleo, sucesivamente. Entre los años 1917-1922 se procede a su electrificación y se le acopla un destellador automático que se renovó en 1947. Con estas renovaciones su alcance se ha elevado a 20 millas náuticas. Dada su cercanía a esta población, también es conocido como faro de Nerja y en la actualidad se está acondicionando para albergar el Museo Marítimo de Torrox.

That translates as: constructed  over a round stone tower  of 23m over a rectangular building.

According to this official description the 23m is the height of the stone tower itself without the lighthouse lantern and without the rectangular building.

Why is the bottom of the lighthouse hidden by at least 24 feet on a flat earth when it should be hidden by 0 feet?

You are trolling the upper forums.

You'd need a very powerful camera, perhaps one that needs to be invented yet, to capture the entire visual obstacle.

The video presents every aspect explicitly: no such features could be seen on a round earth.

Using metabunk calculator:
https://www.metabunk.org/curve/
10.4 miles distance,
6 feet tall camera.

Gives us (really same results, but the interpretation):

With the refraction approximation* giving an effective radius of 7432.83 km (7432833.33 m)
Refracted Horizon = 5.21 km
Refracted Drop= 18.84 meters
Refracted Hidden= 8.93 meters
Refracted Horizon Dip = 0.040 Degrees, (0.0007 Radians)
Note: Not accurate for observations over water very close to the horizon (unless the temperature and vertical temperature gradient are accurate)

Geometric results (no refraction)
Geometric Horizon = 4.83 km
Geometric Drop = 21.99 meters
Geometric Hidden= 11.13 meters
Geometric Horizon Dip = 0.043 Degrees, (0.0008 Radians)

So, let's go to google earth, shall we?

I added a layer, first, 9m above the sea level:
(https://i.ibb.co/wWCLggw/lighthouse.png)

Looks familiar?
Let's see the result on the youtube:
(https://i.ibb.co/p2K0BnF/lighthouse2.png)

you can do very same without taking refraction into consideration (so his 11.4m - aka 36.5 feet). But it won't be much different.

1. Jack, have you ever seen this :
Yes I have. And notice that you quoted the refutation of it?
Refutation of it? Well, i am really worried about your mental health.
This is not the refutation of anything else but your sanity : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82434.msg2201342#msg2201342

In the same way our questioner (from the following dialogue) can't reach Jesus, i can't reach you :

Dr. Clay Jones in his class on Why God Allows Evil entertainingly replays the dialogue from Luke 13 like this:

*Questioner:* Jesus, we have the problem of evil here, the great problem of the ages. People are being killed
What have you got to say?

*Jesus:* They weren’t worse sinners, they were just sinners, and unless you repent you’ll die too. Next?

*Questioner:* Whoa! Jesus, hold on for a minute here! This is the PROBLEM OF EVIL! The question of the ages! Philosophers have debated this forever! People are dying here Jesus! What have you got to say???

*Jesus:* They weren’t worse sinners, they were just sinners, and unless you repent you’ll die too. Next?

*Questioner:* No, Jesus, don’t you get it?!? Let me put it to you this way. You see, if God were all-loving, He would want to prevent evil. If God were all-powerful, He could prevent evil…

*Jesus:* They weren’t worse sinners, they were just sinners, and unless you repent you’ll die too. Next?

Jesus’ answer to the problem of evil is that all fallen, unregenerate sinners born in Adam are worthy of death. Whether we die by murder, accident, or disease isn’t anything more than we deserve. It is only by God’s grace that anyone is saved and it is only by God’s mercy that anyone is kept alive.

Why i can't reach you, Jack?

It seems that i can't reach Sandokhan, as well :

This is one truthful comment that i have received below one of my flat-earth videos (at the time when i was still a flat-earth believer) :
I took your message seriously and I went back and this time I thoroughly did my homework, utilizing topographic maps and even Spanish-language websites for hiking tours of Mallorca, to get the information I needed. This took me about 3 hours. :-)

I selected Puig Caragoler and Puig Roig since they were the same distance from the photographer, and had well-defined peaks, and found the distance between them. Studying the topography, I found that there was a saddle between them that is over 600 meters tall, is below the horizon in the original photo. Thus over 600 m is being obscured. I measured the heights of the two peaks in pixels, as well as the distance between them, and compared that to the actual heights of the peaks, and how tall they should be in pixels. I thus discovered how much of each mountain was hidden by curvature, and made this image:

(https://i.postimg.cc/V6C3M0Dq/FLAT-MAP-PUIG.jpg)

I then went to spherical geometry and measured the distance to the horizon for an elevated observer, and subtracted that distance from the total distance to the mountains, and then used that to determine the expected amount of mountain that would theoretically be obscured, mathematically.

The photo shows 672 meters of mountains hidden. Pure spherical geometry (no refraction) predicts that 886 meters would be hidden. Not too bad! Of course refraction in the real world does exist, so that can account for us being able to see slightly further than we should be able to mathematically. Cheers! :-)?

5. Jon McIntyre - Truth Seeker says :
Hey Odiupicku I've got a couple of more flat earth tests I've done that seem to show curvature. I've got four videos up now that all seem to show curvature. I came at this debate from a completely neutral perspective and in truth I actually preferred to find that the earth was flat. That's because if it was and it could be proven the whole corrupt system running the world would collapse. To my disappointment I keep finding what appears to be curvature but the  truth is that is what I'm finding. I've actually got another test in the can and will be uploading that one soon as well. It is called "The Floating Levels Test" and it shows the surface of a lake to be convex or at least it clearly appears that way. Could you please mirror my new videos and give a link back to my channel. I ask you mostly because I believe that spreading truthful inquiry and experiments is valuable. I also feel that you have shown yourself to have the character to admit you are wrong and pursue the truth just like I did. Thanks for all of your work. I'll also let you know when my latest test is uploaded. Thanks!?

Lighthouse of Torrox Avenida del Faro, Torrox, 29770.

Marine traffic Lighthouse is located on the coast of the municipality of Torrox. It was completed at May 1, 1864. It has automatic, electric ignition, photocell. It has a height of 39 m above the sea and 26 m above the ground.

So, almost 128 feet, as I said before!

And the video showed the temperature as 28°C but not the water temperature. See the average water temperature:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/5pl9x11uu5j6eqy/Malaga%20Average%20Sea%20Temperature%20-%20August.png?dl=1)
It's 23.4°.

You do know what happens with warm air over cool water?

Now stop your silly guesswork!

It can't be 39 meters, the photographs from the beach show this very clearly: no 14 meter difference between the basement of the tower and the sea level.

The quote given by the author of the video is correct; the google searched figures of 39 meters are simply wrong.

Here is the proof:

No 14 meters difference in sight anywhere in the images.

Perhaps, at most, some 3 meters.


Of course there is some controversy over the Torrox Costa lighthouse.

We can differentiate between the correct and the erroneous claims by observing the actual photographs: no 14 meter difference between the basement and the sea level.

Can you explain how trillions of billions of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?
Again, the topic is about rockets.
Can you explain how either gas is magically trapped inside an open container, or how the gas magically accelerates without following firmly established laws of physics which demand it accelerates another objects (i.e. the rocket), or admit that rockets do work in a vacuum?

Refutation of it? Well, i am really worried about your mental health.
Worry about your own mental health. You are the one who seems to think "thrust" is a rational answer to a question asking about a second body.
Thrust is not a body.

You can't "reach" me, because I am not a moron and I realise that you are repeatedly avoiding the question.
You haven't even attempted to explain how the gas accelerates, which is the key issue.
Instead you just start with your magically accelerated gas to avoid the issue.

So again:
How does the gas accelerate? That is what you need to explain.
Again, we know the gas has mass. That means it needs a force to be applied to accelerate it.
No force, no acceleration, so you have your gas magically contained inside an open container.
So the only rational option is to have a force acting on the gas to accelerate it.
But then we also know forces come in pairs. If a force is acting on the gas then the gas must be applying a force to another object, and as we have been over, the only other object there is the rocket.
That means the rocket needs to be having a force applied as well.
But that means rockets DO work in a vacuum.

Notice how I am not discussing what happens after the gas accelerates? Instead it is that initial acceleration which is key, which you are ignoring.

So if you want to try and reach me, instead of just trolling, answer the question. How does the gas accelerate?

rabinoz, take a look at what is happening to you: you are becoming a flat earth believer.

Just the other day you stated that the Sun has a solid surface.

Now, you posted this.

something holds a one-kilogram mass down with a force of one kilogram

You have to explain HOW that something holds a one kg mass.

What you did is to DESCRIBE something.

Are you able to provide the mechanism by which water stays glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

But modern does NOT claim any "attractive gravity hypothesis"

WHAT?!

Terrestrial gravity IS NOT ATTRACTIVE?

Then, by all means, tell us what it is then.

I do not "claim that terrestrial gravity is attractive"!

Congratulations, you have stated that you are a flat earth believer.

Quote from: sandokhan
You cannot resort to general relativity: I can immediately point out how Einstein faked the 1919/1922 crucial solar eclipses data.

I am intrigued on where you would go with this.

You know how theoretical and experimental physics works right, Einstein only did one physics experiment, related to brownian motion if memory serves correct, the physics community smiled, patted him on the head and suggested he sticks to thought experiments.

Is it Einsteins maths? hes not that good of a mathematician this is quite widely known.

Is it the German physics community, cant think why early 20th century Germans would have anything against Einstein

Eddington? he was a Einstein fanboy not much doubt of that.

More interesting is how Einstein is still getting up to his old tricks on every solar eclipse since 1922

Another new thread would be more appropriate, I wouldn't want to distract you from trying to make sense of that trig formula you invented.

Let me explain to everyone here why the RE cannot resort to general relativity to account for gravity.

General Relativity postulates that gravity is a curvature of spacetime created by mass, but it does not explain how that curvature occurs. Actually, it is just a DESCRIPTION that leaves unanswered the key question of exactly how matter affects space and time.

So, in order to make any sense at all out of explaining the cause of gravity, physicists have resorted to the use of gravitational waves assumed to be ripples in the fabric of spacetime.

The Hulse-Taylor experiment proved their existence and in 2016 it was announced by LIGO that they had made the first direct observation of gravitational waves.

It was ALWAYS assumed that Einstein's equations can describe these gravitational waves, that is, that Einstein's equations have a BOUNDED DYNAMIC SOLUTION.

(https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/8dc8476392d219aea5dbed160b57296570ae4286)

However, as early as 1917, one of the greatest mathematicians in the world, T. Levi-Civita discovered a huge flaw in these equations: there is no bounded dynamic solution.

A paper by T. Levi-Civita in 1917, one of the inventors of Tensor Calculus, showing that Einstein's pseudo-tensor is nonsense because it leads to the requirement for a first-order, intrinsic, differential invariant, which, as is well known to the pure mathematicians, does not exist:

http://web.archive.org/web/20090902090420/http://www.sjcrothers.plasmaresources.com/Levi-Civita.pdf

A. Gullstrand, the chairman of the Nobel prize committee, also discovered in 1921 that Einstein's equations cannot be applied to DYNAMIC situations: that is why he refused to give Einstein the Nobel prize for general relativity.

None other than Einstein himself also discovered this very fact in 1936:

(https://i.ibb.co/TBrqJ0L/125.jpg)

https://archive.org/details/TheBornEinsteinLetters/page/n72

THAT IS, THERE ARE NO GRAVITATIONAL WAVE SOLUTIONS USING THE ORIGINAL EINSTEIN EQUATIONS.

Now, the best part.

Gravitational waves become possible if, and only if, an ANTIGRAVITATIONAL TERM is added to the original equations, which is exactly what Reissner and Nordstrom and Weyl did.

But this takes the wind out of round earth theory immediately.

Here is the proof that the original Einstein equations do not have a BOUNDED DYNAMIC SOLUTION:

Can you explain how trillions of billions of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?
Again, the topic is about rockets.
Can you explain how either gas is magically trapped inside an open container, or how the gas magically accelerates without following firmly established laws of physics which demand it accelerates another objects (i.e. the rocket), or admit that rockets do work in a vacuum?

Refutation of it? Well, i am really worried about your mental health.
Worry about your own mental health. You are the one who seems to think "thrust" is a rational answer to a question asking about a second body.
Thrust is not a body.

You can't "reach" me, because I am not a moron and I realise that you are repeatedly avoiding the question.
You haven't even attempted to explain how the gas accelerates, which is the key issue.
Instead you just start with your magically accelerated gas to avoid the issue.

So again:
How does the gas accelerate? That is what you need to explain.
Again, we know the gas has mass. That means it needs a force to be applied to accelerate it.
No force, no acceleration, so you have your gas magically contained inside an open container.
So the only rational option is to have a force acting on the gas to accelerate it.
But then we also know forces come in pairs. If a force is acting on the gas then the gas must be applying a force to another object, and as we have been over, the only other object there is the rocket.
That means the rocket needs to be having a force applied as well.
But that means rockets DO work in a vacuum.

Notice how I am not discussing what happens after the gas accelerates? Instead it is that initial acceleration which is key, which you are ignoring.

So if you want to try and reach me, instead of just trolling, answer the question. How does the gas accelerate?

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
Thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)

NASA SAYS  :

"The physics involved in the generation of thrust is introduced in middle school and studied in some detail in high school and college. To accelerate the gas, we have to expend energy. The energy is generated as heat by the combustion of some fuel."

According to Jack, generated energy (as heat by the combustion) is the force which produces another force (thrust) which is (mass (flow (rate) * (exhaust velocity).

The first force (combustion-expansion-chemical reaction) forces one part of the second force (mass flow rate) to accelerate (which is another part of the second force).

So, we have the first force (chemical reaction) and the second force (thrust).
Now, according to Jack's logic, the second force is not the whole force, but only one part of the second force (mass (flow rate)).

In order to get the entire force (thrust) we need the first force (chemical reaction) which is going to accelerate one part of the first force (mass).

Now, according to Jack, the first force (chemical reaction) is actual-real force, and thrust is only one part of what it really is (mass (flow rate)).

This is how Jack invented something (first force) that can artificially separate thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)) from a rocket.

So, the first body is a rocket, second body is a thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity), and the force is actually the first force (chemical reaction) which accelerates second body (thrust) so that we can finally get thrust in it's integrality.

This is an interesting theory (which eventually boils down to nothing more than meaningless wordplay), but it is plainly wrong, that is to say : just one among many classical examples of notorious Jack's stupidities.

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

Jack still hasn't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases= thrust= mass flow rate* exhaust velocity) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..

What happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

The gas cannot push the ship with the nozzle closed because gas trapped in the combustion chamber does no work but if you open the nozzle all the gas exits immediately before it can push against the ship. Therefore you cannot use gas in the vacuum to power a rocket ship.

This force pushing a rocket cannot be pushing on the inside of the rocket any more than you can push with your feet upwards against the inside of a cardboard box you are within to stop it from falling from a height. It sounds absurd but that is what NASA claims happens in a rocket.

An object sitting on the ground can only move upwards if it is pushed from underneath or lifted from the side/top. Since we know rockets are not lifted , they must be pushed. Therefore the gasses underneath the rocket must be pushing it up and off the launchpad.

An object moving straight up into the air will eventually be pulled back down by gravity unless it is continuously pushed from underneath or pulled from the top/side by a force greater than gravity.

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

3. Jack, have you ever seen this :

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

BULLSHIT :

An airplane propeller DOES push against the air and in so doing it DOES impart a reactive force to the plane because the prop is a solid object CONNECTED to the plane.

Rocket exhaust isn’t connected to the rocket so it can’t function as a pushing medium to the rocket as a propeller does.

Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle. There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.

That is how rocket thrust works. The continued expansion of gasses caused by burning high energy fuel builds up pressure but the pressure is always lower at the rear of the rocket motor due to the open nozzle. The higher pressure in the forward part of the motor maintains an imbalance of forces so the rocket continues to move as long as fuel is burned.

In addition to the above force there is also some thrust caused by rearward ejection of mass (the exhaust) in accordance with Newton’s 3rd Law.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

COMMON SENSE :

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.

To save time, I will tell you how I interpret Newtons 3 Laws of Motion. If you disagree then there is no longer a reason to continue this thread as we differ on basic laws of physics which won’t be resolved here. If you agree with me, then there is much to discuss.

Let’s start with Newtons 3 Laws of Motion.

Fist Law: For an object to remain as it is, either moving or not, the sum of the forces on it are zero.
Sigma F = 0

Second Law: For a body to accelerate, there must be a force on it.
F = ma

Third Law: For every force in one direction, there is an equal force in the opposite direction.
F1 = – F2 or F1 + F2 = 0

Notice how all of Newtons Laws of Motion contain the term ‘force’. Newton used the term ‘force’ to explain how objects are pushed and pulled in our universe.

This is how I see Newtons 3rd Law applied to rockets flying through our atmosphere:

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

The way you are explaining it, is that molecules hitting inside a chamber are moving the rocket forward, AND the rocket is moving forward. You did mention the perhaps the exhaust might move it forward also somewhat, but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.

You can’t have two positive forces. F1 + F2 would then be greater than zero, and that defies Newtons 3rd Law. My point is the exhaust out the back is not the minor part, it is the major part of the force. Newtons 3rd law says it has to be.

4. Jack, have you ever seen this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)
So you go and find the "As we shall see latter(sic), maximum thrust occurs when Pe=Pa" and find out what it means.
[/quote]
(https://i.postimg.cc/63h5Rmpy/ROCKET-PROPULSION-2-X.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/7L112934/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY.jpg)

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

So first things first

One of two things is going to happen at some point in the future, either somebody is going to create a unifying theory and complete Einsteins work or a brand new theory will supplant it .

However, as Eisenstein supplanted  Newton, Newtons works still work and are still used today. You have used Newtonion Mechanics yourself in this thread.

So General relativity is expressed in 10 equations, which can be expressed together as

(https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/31dc26df9204818931b3ebb8be852a46951efd2a)

The Einstein Field Equations or EFE.

EFE was published in 1915 then again in 1916. However didnt really pick up pace till the 1960's when improvements mathmatical technique , allowed simplifications not previously possible. Im not going to accept the partial 1917 paper, which the abstract itself says was supplanted by Einstein but worth looking at for the beauty of the maths. Their are hundreds if not thousands of papers since looking at all of the tensors contained in the original EFE

There are pages and pages of derivations, all this led to

(https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/0dbbeb5051daeedf7ef8e47ea43451756c68247c)

The expression on the left represents the curvature of spacetime as determined by the metric; the expression on the right represents the matter/energy content of spacetime. The EFE can then be interpreted as a set of equations dictating how matter/energy determines the curvature of spacetime.

Exact solutions for the EFE can only be found under simplifying assumptions such as symmetry. Special classes of exact solutions are most often studied as they model many gravitational phenomena, such as rotating black holes and the expanding universe. Further simplification is achieved in approximating the actual spacetime as flat spacetime with a small deviation, leading to the linearized EFE. These equations are used to study phenomena such as gravitational waves.

The fact the EFE has predicted and proved numerous areas of physics is irrefutable, pointing to one part of the original text and shouting tah dah is a little weak tbh

You still don't get it.

Einstein's equations apply ONLY TO STATIC SYSTEMS.

Nothing else.

There is no bounded dynamic solution.

There are no gravitational waves, no ripples in spacetime with Einstein's equation.

They cannot be applied to anything, whether it be the perihelion of Mercury, or the bending light, or the Pound-Rebka experiment.

Here is how Einstein faked/fudged his static equations to for the perihelion of Mercury:

The advance of the perihelion of Mercury’s orbit, another famous confirmation of General Relativity, is worth a closer look (the perihelion is the point in the orbit closest to a sun).  Graduate theses may one day be written about this peculiar episode in the history of science.  In his book, Subtle Is the Lord, Abraham Pais reports that when Einstein saw that his calculations agreed with Mercury’s orbit, “he had the feeling that something actually snapped in him ...  This experience was, I believe, by far the strongest emotional experience in Einstein’s scientific life, perhaps in all his life.  Nature had spoken to him.”

Fact:  The equation that accounted for Mercury’s orbit had been published 17 years earlier, before Relativity was invented.  The author, Paul Gerber, used the assumption that gravity is not instantaneous, but propagates with the speed of light.  After Einstein published his General Relativity derivation, arriving at the same equation, Gerber’s article was reprinted in *Annalen der Physik* (the journal that had published Einstein’s Relativity papers).  The editors felt that Einstein should have acknowledged Gerber’s priority.  Although Einstein said he had been in the dark, it was pointed out that Gerber’s formula had been published in Mach’s Science of Mechanics, a book that Einstein was known to have studied.  So how did they both arrive at the same formula?

Tom Van Flandern was convinced that Gerber’s assumption (gravity propagates with the speed of light) was wrong.  So he studied the question.  He points out that the formula in question is well known in celestial mechanics.  Consequently, it could be used as a “target” for calculations that were intended to arrive at it.  He saw that Gerber’s method “made no sense, in terms of the principles of celestial mechanics.”  Einstein had also said (in a 1920 newspaper article) that Gerber’s derivation was “wrong through and through.”

So how did Einstein get the same formula?  Van Flandern went through his calculations, and found to his amazement that they had “three separate contributions to the perihelion; two of which add, and one of which cancels part of the other two; and you wind up with just the right multiplier.”  So he asked a colleague at the University of Maryland, who as a young man had overlapped with Einstein at Princeton’s Institute for Advanced Study, how in his opinion Einstein had arrived at the correct multiplier.  This man said it was his impression that, “knowing the answer,” Einstein had “jiggered the arguments until they came out with the right value.”

Dr. F. Schmeidler of the Munich University Observatory has published a paper  titled "The Einstein Shift An Unsettled Problem," and a plot of shifts for 92 stars for the 1922 eclipse shows shifts going in all directions, many of them going the wrong way by as large a deflection as those shifted in the predicted direction! Further examination of the 1919 and 1922 data originally interpreted as confirming relativity, tended to favor a larger shift, the results depended very strongly on the manner for reducing the measurements and the effect of omitting individual stars.

The most extraordinary proofs on HOW EINSTEIN FAKED HIS 1919/1922 DATA FOR THE SO CALLED EINSTEIN SHIFT:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg2194405#msg2194405


Both Pound and Rebka ASSUMED that the speed of light is constant and not a variable.

If the speed of the light pulses in the gravitational field is VARIABLE, then the frequency shift measured by Pound and Rebka is a direct consequence of this variability and there is no gravitational time dilation.


The fact the EFE has predicted and proved numerous areas of physics is irrefutable, pointing to one part of the original text and shouting tah dah is a little weak tbh

Brilliant.

None other than Einstein himself also discovered this very fact in 1936:

(https://i.ibb.co/TBrqJ0L/125.jpg)


THERE ARE NO PREDICTIONS WHATSOEVER BASED ON EINSTEIN'S STATIC EQUATIONS.

THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE DOES NOT OBEY ANYTHING PERTAINING TO EINSTEIN'S STATIC EQUATIONS.

Here is the DARK FLOW discovered by Dr. A. Kashlinsky from Nasa:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg1936995#msg1936995

Dark flow has been described as taking a hammer and beating the living tar out of Einstein’s gravitational theory of the universe.


Einstein's equations become valid if, and only if, an antigravitational term is added.

Then, and only then, the linearized version can be applied to physical situations.

Now, if you want/desire the TECHNICAL details as to why this happens, well then, you are on your own, that is, use your own time to research this topic; here, it is well beyond the scope of our discussion.

If you want ME to do this, you'd better pay me by the hour to do such an involved research in nonlinear optics.

Just to put a coda on this because you fabricating things makes me and our dear readers call into question what else you may have fabricated.

- It is your claim that cameras possess some sort of ability to obscure the "lower portion of an object" and replace it with water even though the object is in the center of the frame.
- It is your claim that the reason why, for instance, 95% of the Sky Dome and the lower third of the CN Tower is hidden is because cameras replace those areas arbitrarily with a wall of water.
- It is your claim that reason why, for instance, 25' (authors numbers from video) of the Torrox Lighthouse is hidden is because cameras replace those areas arbitrarily with a wall of water.

These are your claims. These are the ways you explain why we can't see the bottom of the objects, even though they are in the center of the frame.

Because these are your claims you need to at least point to some documentation/explanation that shows why a camera would do so in accordance with globe earth observations. No one has ever heard of a camera feature that does what you claim it does. Maybe it hasn't been invented yet, as you said. If that's the case, then you really have an issue with your integrity.

Again, your claim is that a camera magically hides the bottom of objects at will. How does that work? Please explain the mechanics of this feature. If you can't even point to something to back up your claims then we will consider your claims fabricated and invalid, therefore FE loses.

Sure I can, but that would mean to spend at least ten hours researching nonlinear optics as this subject relates to the focal length in order to provide the answer you want.

If you need this type of research, you have to pay for it.

My area of expertise is bifurcation theory.

I have the photographs and the precise data.

You have nothing at all.

I proved that the rooftop of the Sky Dome can be seen from a distance of 60 km from the beach located in St. Catharines, a fact impossible on a round earth.

Therefore RE loses.

Anything else, is well beyond the scope of our discussion.

If can't pay for this type of research, then you better accept the facts and shut up.

- It is your claim that cameras possess some sort of ability to obscure the "lower portion of an object" and replace it with water even though the object is in the center of the frame.
- It is your claim that the reason why, for instance, 95% of the Sky Dome and the lower third of the CN Tower is hidden is because cameras replace those areas arbitrarily with a wall of water.
- It is your claim that reason why, for instance, 25' (authors numbers from video) of the Torrox Lighthouse is hidden is because cameras replace those areas arbitrarily with a wall of water.


Not claims, BUT FACTS.

Here is the photograph to prove it:

(https://i.imgur.com/KDmSfcq.jpg?1)

You already know the numbers.

YOU have to explain why we can see the rooftop of the Sky Dome where there should be none.

Here is the perfect illustration of my explanation so far (that the quality of the camera is involved):

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/150629243/ (CN Tower barely visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/83867796/ (with a better camera, more details become visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/ (and the rooftop of the Sky Dome very visible, completely impossible on a round earth)

If want to know WHY the focal length of a camera is unable to capture the entire image of the visual obstacle, that is your business.

You want to make it my business, you have to pay for it.

For my time.


Take a look at yourself stash.

How can you live like this?

Here you are claiming that the shape of the Earth is spherical, yet you cannot explain how trillions of billions of gallons of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere.

When pressed to offer a simple answer, you quote directly from the wikipedia page on gravity, which is pathetic.

This means that someone else has to do the thinking for you, you'll accept anything that comes your way, any sordid explanation.

You owe it to yourself to find out that the explanation your quoted amounts to nothing at all.

Neither Newtonian attractive gravity nor general relativity can explain anything pertaining to why objects stay in place on the surface of a sphere.

Let us imagine Toronto as a huge ship, with the CN Tower as its masthead.

First photograph:

(https://i.ibb.co/hmQHvVV/st2.jpg)

Now, we use a better camera:

(https://i.ibb.co/f0MRfxx/st3.jpg)

More details can be seen, of course.

Now, the third photograph:

(https://i.ibb.co/TMv8PLT/st1.jpg)

https://www.distancecalculator.net/from-toronto-to-st-catharines


https://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/

ROGERS CENTRE: SKY DOME clearly visible in the photograph; however IT PROVES THE FLAT EARTH THEORY DIRECTLY AND EXACTLY.


Height of Sky Dome: 86 meters, the building itself can be seen without any terrestrial refraction in the photograph, but we will include 10 meters, for the sake of the discussion; that is, the influence of the refraction will be some 10 meters...


Two other photographs, taken right there, on the same beach:

http://valdodge.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/pirate-ship-5137.jpg
http://valdodge.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/mirage-across-the-lake-5112.jpg

The altitude of the photographer can be easily estimated to be at or around 10 meters (if we would ascend to some 20 meters, that would mean that we are on top of a five-story building; certainly not the case here, as we can see from the photographs themselves; I would estimate some 5 meters, but we will go to 10 meters).

On a round earth, taking refraction into account, and ascending to some 10 meters, it would still be impossible to see the rooftop of the Sky Dome.

In order to see the roof top of the Sky Dome, we would have to ascend to at least 20 meters, that is, on top of a five story building; as we can see from the photographs taken right there, we are right on the St. Catharines beach itself.

Data for St. Catharines, Lake Ontario, distance to Toronto, 60 km:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)

3 - 150.5

5 - 138

10 - 117.5


Now, the fact that the lower portion of a building/ship cannot be seen in some photographs is a result of the quality of the camera used:


http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/150629243/ (CN Tower barely visible)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/83867796/ (with a better camera, more details become visible)

All of the dome should be hidden. Your 3959 mile radius Earth is a lie and you still teach and embrace the lie. If truth matters to you, then you should be asking why is the roof top seen? But we know what you are afraid of.

Agreed and the FE explanation is that a camera somehow makes it look like Toronto is under 80+ meters of water. With zero explanation as to how a camera somehow makes it look like Toronto is under 80+ meters of water.

The size of the earth, gives the impression, to a local area, as being flat.
We use Newton's gravity to explain the orbit of the moon, and lunar tides.
Taking into account the earth moon bodies have a center of gravity, this center of gravity is located somewhat under the surface of the earth, the water of the oceans, is attracted to the center, this center is constantly on the move following the orbit of the moon, changing the tides as it moves along. The rotation of the earth also complicates this movement, let alone, (earth moon) orbiting the sun.
All by Newtonian gravity. Einstein’s gravity, is a refinement of this.
With this understanding of gravity,  we have put satellites in orbit,

we have put probes on Mars,
we have sent probes to Saturn.
 we have sent probes on a flyby to the other planets.
We have the ISS in orbit, and send people to it on a regular basis.

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
Yes, notice how it isn't a second body?

Stop lying by saying various things are according to me.
They are not. You are blatantly lying about my position and still avoiding the question.

This is an interesting theory (which eventually boils down to nothing more than meaningless wordplay), but it is plainly wrong
Yes, what you have provided is nothing more than meaningless wordplay to avoid the issue yet again.
It is entirely from your stupidity, not mine, as I have said nothing of the sort.
The chemical reaction is not a force. All it is doing is heating up the gas.
The force comes when the gas interacts with the rocket, with each pushing off each other. This pushes the rocket forwards and the gas backwards and is known as thrust.

Once again you have failed to even attempt to answer the question.
Yet again you have started off with your gas already magically accelerated.

Again, you need to start from the gas at rest. What is accelerating it?
And no, I don't mean simply heating it up which does not accelerate the gas as a bulk. I mean what is causing it to move in a particular direction.

Are you going to attempt to address this issue or will you just continue with your lies and avoidance?

We are on the beach in St. Catharines at the same level with lake Ontario and Toronto.

Where did this come from, since the captions are not seen on the page itself?

It can't be 51 km, since the distance to Toronto from St. Catharines is 60 km.

The fact the EFE has predicted and proved numerous areas of physics is irrefutable, pointing to one part of the original text and shouting tah dah is a little weak tbh

You still don't get it.

Einstein's equations apply ONLY TO STATIC SYSTEMS.

Nothing else.

There is no bounded dynamic solution.

There are no gravitational waves, no ripples in spacetime with Einstein's equation.

They cannot be applied to anything, whether it be the perihelion of Mercury, or the bending light, or the Pound-Rebka experiment.

Here is how Einstein faked/fudged his static equations to for the perihelion of Mercury:

The advance of the perihelion of Mercury’s orbit, another famous confirmation of General Relativity, is worth a closer look (the perihelion is the point in the orbit closest to a sun).  Graduate theses may one day be written about this peculiar episode in the history of science.  In his book, Subtle Is the Lord, Abraham Pais reports that when Einstein saw that his calculations agreed with Mercury’s orbit, “he had the feeling that something actually snapped in him ...  This experience was, I believe, by far the strongest emotional experience in Einstein’s scientific life, perhaps in all his life.  Nature had spoken to him.”

Fact:  The equation that accounted for Mercury’s orbit had been published 17 years earlier, before Relativity was invented.  The author, Paul Gerber, used the assumption that gravity is not instantaneous, but propagates with the speed of light.  After Einstein published his General Relativity derivation, arriving at the same equation, Gerber’s article was reprinted in *Annalen der Physik* (the journal that had published Einstein’s Relativity papers).  The editors felt that Einstein should have acknowledged Gerber’s priority.  Although Einstein said he had been in the dark, it was pointed out that Gerber’s formula had been published in Mach’s Science of Mechanics, a book that Einstein was known to have studied.  So how did they both arrive at the same formula?

Tom Van Flandern was convinced that Gerber’s assumption (gravity propagates with the speed of light) was wrong.  So he studied the question.  He points out that the formula in question is well known in celestial mechanics.  Consequently, it could be used as a “target” for calculations that were intended to arrive at it.  He saw that Gerber’s method “made no sense, in terms of the principles of celestial mechanics.”  Einstein had also said (in a 1920 newspaper article) that Gerber’s derivation was “wrong through and through.”

So how did Einstein get the same formula?  Van Flandern went through his calculations, and found to his amazement that they had “three separate contributions to the perihelion; two of which add, and one of which cancels part of the other two; and you wind up with just the right multiplier.”  So he asked a colleague at the University of Maryland, who as a young man had overlapped with Einstein at Princeton’s Institute for Advanced Study, how in his opinion Einstein had arrived at the correct multiplier.  This man said it was his impression that, “knowing the answer,” Einstein had “jiggered the arguments until they came out with the right value.”

Dr. F. Schmeidler of the Munich University Observatory has published a paper  titled "The Einstein Shift An Unsettled Problem," and a plot of shifts for 92 stars for the 1922 eclipse shows shifts going in all directions, many of them going the wrong way by as large a deflection as those shifted in the predicted direction! Further examination of the 1919 and 1922 data originally interpreted as confirming relativity, tended to favor a larger shift, the results depended very strongly on the manner for reducing the measurements and the effect of omitting individual stars.

The most extraordinary proofs on HOW EINSTEIN FAKED HIS 1919/1922 DATA FOR THE SO CALLED EINSTEIN SHIFT:

A devastating look at the fakery perpetrated by Einstein in order to sell to the world HIS STATIC SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg2194405#msg2194405


Both Pound and Rebka ASSUMED that the speed of light is constant and not a variable.

If the speed of the light pulses in the gravitational field is VARIABLE, then the frequency shift measured by Pound and Rebka is a direct consequence of this variability and there is no gravitational time dilation.


The fact the EFE has predicted and proved numerous areas of physics is irrefutable, pointing to one part of the original text and shouting tah dah is a little weak tbh

Brilliant.

ALL AND ANY PARTS OF EINSTEIN'S STATIC EQUATIONS ARE WRONG.

However, as early as 1917, one of the greatest mathematicians in the world, T. Levi-Civita discovered a huge flaw in these equations: there is no bounded dynamic solution.

A paper by T. Levi-Civita in 1917, one of the inventors of Tensor Calculus, showing that Einstein's pseudo-tensor is nonsense because it leads to the requirement for a first-order, intrinsic, differential invariant, which, as is well known to the pure mathematicians, does not exist:

http://web.archive.org/web/20090902090420/http://www.sjcrothers.plasmaresources.com/Levi-Civita.pdf

A. Gullstrand, the chairman of the Nobel prize committee, also discovered in 1921 that Einstein's equations cannot be applied to DYNAMIC situations: that is why he refused to give Einstein the Nobel prize for general relativity.

None other than Einstein himself also discovered this very fact in 1936:

(https://i.ibb.co/TBrqJ0L/125.jpg)


THERE ARE NO PREDICTIONS WHATSOEVER BASED ON EINSTEIN'S STATIC EQUATIONS.

THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE DOES NOT OBEY ANYTHING PERTAINING TO EINSTEIN'S STATIC EQUATIONS.

Here is the DARK FLOW discovered by Dr. A. Kashlinsky from Nasa:

https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg1936995#msg1936995

Dark flow has been described as taking a hammer and beating the living tar out of Einstein’s gravitational theory of the universe.


Einstein's equations become valid if, and only if, an antigravitational term is added.

Then, and only then, the linearized version can be applied to physical situations.

Do you ever read anything either in debate, or papers produced after 1930.

So the greatest achievement in physics, to date is wrong because Einstein's equations are static.

 ::)

Putting aside the fact that Einstein abandoned his static model in 1917 as he kept doubting himself on the required cosmological constant, try not to think that Einstein's model is currently back in the fold since 1998 as dark energy fits as a cosmological constant, the fact you dont understand the difference between a model and an equation or that the einsteinian model isn't relativity

This is almost as good as your attempts at pythagoras

I proved that the rooftop of the Sky Dome can be seen from a distance of 60 km from the beach located in St. Catharines, a fact impossible on a round earth.

Therefore RE loses.
You might have "proven that the rooftop of the Sky Dome can be seen from a distance of 60 km from the beach located in St. Catharines" but you have not proven that is "a fact impossible on a round earth"!

Quote from: sandokhan
- It is your claim that cameras possess some sort of ability to obscure the "lower portion of an object" and replace it with water even though the object is in the center of the frame.
- It is your claim that the reason why, for instance, 95% of the Sky Dome and the lower third of the CN Tower is hidden is because cameras replace those areas arbitrarily with a wall of water.
- It is your claim that reason why, for instance, 25' (authors numbers from video) of the Torrox Lighthouse is hidden is because cameras replace those areas arbitrarily with a wall of water.


Not claims, BUT FACTS.

Here is the photograph to prove it:
(https://i.imgur.com/KDmSfcq.jpg?1)

You already know the numbers.

YOU have to explain why we can see the rooftop of the Sky Dome where there should be none.
We don't have prove anything of the sort because slightly more that standard refraction can easily explain it - you prove it can't!

In fact that photo shows most of the Rogers Centre Sky Dome, the land from there to the water level and a considerable part of the tower are hidden.

That would seem to be a fact impossible on a flat earth!

Quote from: sandokhan
Here is the perfect illustration of my explanation so far (that the quality of the camera is involved):
http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/150629243/ (CN Tower barely visible)
Get real! It has nothing to do with "the quality of the camera is involved"!
Even the photographer, Jackson Myers, titles the photo "Toronto through the Clouds" and adds "Toronto across Lake Ontario on a cloudy day".

Quote from: sandokhan
http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/83867796/ (with a better camera, more details become visible)
Rubbish!
That photo, again by Jackson Myers, titled "Toronto Skyline - with sailboat" and "Taken from St. Catharines, Ontario" was taken under clearer conditions.

Quote from: sandokhan
http://www.flickr.com/photos/j-a-x/129240474/sizes/l/in/photostream/ (and the rooftop of the Sky Dome very visible, completely impossible on a round earth)
No! It shows plenty hidden just not as much as you think there should be, again would seem to be a fact impossible on a flat earth!

Quote from: sandokhan
If want to know WHY the focal length of a camera is unable to capture the entire image of the visual obstacle, that is your business.
In other words you haven't a clue and are trying to hide your ignorance!
Luckily I've been taking photos for longer than you've lived so I know you've no idea what you are talking about.

I always like to play with the RE.

Those who have been here for many years must have been intrigued by the following figures:

Data for St. Catharines, Lake Ontario, distance to Toronto, 60 km:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)

3 - 150.5

5 - 138

10 - 117.5


Because this is the data for a 50 KM DISTANCE.


I used 60 km as a distance to keep the RE busy revealing their arguments and thoughts on the subject.


But the figures are correct for 50 km.

(http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n206/dharanis1/Capture_zpswhoewt2o.jpg)

BD = (R + h)/{[2Rh + h2]1/2(sin s/R)(1/R) + cos s/R} - R


BD = visual obstacle

h = altitude of observer


Plug in 0.002 and 0.003 for h and 50 km for s, and you will get the final results as:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)

3 - 150.5


I was playing nice to the RE.

Until now.

Since they are fighting for each meter, from now on the altitude of the photographer, right there on the beach, will be at most 3 meters. Nothing else.

An altitude of 10 meters corresponds to the height of a three story building.


These are the facts concering the photograph from St. Catherines.

Even with 3 meters, you still have to deal with a visual obstacle of 150.5 meters.

86 meters + 9 meters (courtesy of the FES) = 95 meters for the Sky Dome

150.5 - 95 = 55.5 meters to be accounted for.

Good luck.

Sorry, you can't use the Bathurst lighthouse story anymore.

It has been debunked.

Wolfie6020 who knows when this vid was taken? Are you seriously asking us to take your word for it? Because you offer zero proof of the date.

What you have admitted in passing is that the swell does indeed invalidate your vid. Unlike your halfwit followers who don’t understand the importance of the swell off Rottnest, you do know. My point is that the swell can be up to 4.5m at various times of the year. Which you completely fail to mention in any of your Bathurst Lighthouse vids. Very deceptive and it has tricked your zombie minded followers

Btw why spell metres, meters? Team Wolfie is a NASA shill account. Uses American spelling.

You are trolling the upper forums.

We are measuring everything with respect to LAKE ONTARIO LEVEL, not sea level.

Sure, the Niagara Escarpment is located at a higher elevation than Lake Ontario:

(http://www.multi-area.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Niagara-Escarpment-Length-300x298.jpg)

However, then I will bring here all over again the multitude of photographs taken in Grimsby (45 to 170 meters altitude) which exhibit no 59 meter curvature of water.


The question is, why on a flat earth is Toronto submerged under dozens of meters of water?

You are dreaming.

On a FE Toronto CANNOT be under any water, on the contrary.


The following photograph demolishes RE.

It can only have been taken on a flat earth.

3 - 150.5

Now, please explain to your readers, and for that matter to yourself, HOW THE WATER LEVEL OF LAKE ONTARIO STAYS CURVED ON A ROUND EARTH.

You can't use either attractive gravity or general relativity.

By pure magic, isn't it?

This is exactly what you are telling everyone here is happening: on a spherical Earth the water level stays curved by pure magic, nothing else.

You can't use either attractive gravity or general relativity.

By pure magic, isn't it?

This is exactly what you are telling everyone here is happening: on a spherical Earth the water level stays curved by pure magic, nothing else.

Here is a single photograph which renders everything your posted as superfluous, unnecessary and ineffective.

(https://i.ibb.co/TMv8PLT/st1.jpg)

Data for St. Catharines, Lake Ontario, distance to Toronto, 50 km:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)

3 - 150.5

These are the facts concering the photograph from St. Catherines.

Even with 3 meters, you still have to deal with a visual obstacle of 150.5 meters.

86 meters + 9 meters (courtesy of the FES) = 95 meters for the Sky Dome

150.5 - 95 = 55.5 meters to be accounted for.

Good luck.

If the light from the Sun could not reach London due to curvature and/or any light reflection phenomena, then certainly NO LIGHT from an explosion which occurred at some 7 km altitude in the atmosphere could have been seen at all, at the same time, on a spherical earth.

Data for St. Catharines, Lake Ontario, distance to Toronto, 50 km:

2 meters (observer) - 158 meters (visual obstacle)
There is usually some refraction.
For the standard lapse rate that is allowed for by using an equivalent earth's radius of 7/6 x actual radius.
Allowing for that the "expected" hidden height would be a bit under 134 m.
All it needs, however, is a small difference in water and air temperature to change this either way.

Quote from: sandokhan
3 - 150.5
And from 3 m for the camera height, the "expected" hidden height would be 126 m but again local conditions can change that either way.

Quote from: sandokhan
These are the facts concering the photograph from St. Catherines.

The camera's heights and distance might be but the "hidden height" can vary considerably depending on the relative water and low level air temperatures.

Quote from: sandokhan
Even with 3 meters, you still have to deal with a visual obstacle of 150.5 meters.

86 meters + 9 meters (courtesy of the FES) = 95 meters for the Sky Dome

150.5 - 95 = 55.5 meters to be accounted for.

Good luck.
No need for luck!

Make that 126 - 95 = 31 m "to be accounted for" but even that only needs a little extra refraction to change it up or down.
So it be considered weak evidence for a flat earth but certainly not proof!

But you have the biggest problem!
You claim that the earth is flat and on a flat earth none should be hidden but even you admit that 86 m is hidden!

So, if we use your photo and your calculations it would appear that the earth can't be flat!

But all along I've taken the position that observing "curvature" through the atmosphere is poor evidence either way.

Actually it does work like that because where refraction can account for a few meters here and there and an unknown observer level, etc., flat earth can't account for the dozens of meters of Lake Ontario that have flooded Toronto based upon all of the images compiled.

Really? 
Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation was based evidence from Galileo plus a lot of experimental work by Robert Hooke and himself.

Possibly a catalyst was the realisation that the same gravitation that caused the apple to fall stopped the moon from "flying away" as it would with no central force.

Newton and Hooke did not try to find a cause for gravitation, just the way it behaved and that is why it is Newton's Law and not Theory.

But how much experimental work have you done it your attempts to prove Newton wrong? Would that be none?
All I've seen you do is to criticise and ridicule those who attempt versions of the Cavendish experiment.

And Newton never claimed that gravitation was caused by mass attracting mass, just that it behaved that way.

Quote from: sandokhan
First, you must PROVE that the Earth rotates about its own axis.
Why?
The idea that the Globe was rotating on it's axis and orbiting dates right back to Aristarchus of Samos.
Others rejected that largely because it was claimed that the stars should move, stellar parallax.
Quite a number of others, especially in the Middle East and India took it further.

But in the west it wasn't till Copernicus with his admittedly poor model "started the ball rolling" in the West.

But Newton's time most astronomers saw that the Heliocentric Solar System fitted the planets far better than the old Ptolemaic Universe.

But there was not direct evidence of the Heliocentric Solar System until well after Newton's time.

I dont wish to get into this again, but the peer reviewed papers you submitted showed an unknown anomaly, nobody at this stage can explain it, but as there are numerous papers that also record no such anomalies. Your own reference states the experiments cant be replicated.

According to your drivel, at this point in time, Toronto should be under 300 METERS OF WATER.

This is what you are saying.

So is Toronto under water, or is the camera to blame?

Here is a better quality camera, and what do you know, Toronto has a magical drainhole to eliminate the water.

(https://i.ibb.co/f0MRfxx/st3.jpg)

Are you telling your readers that magically the water subsided to a level of 150 METERS?

Can't you see how silly you are?

I have just proven that Toronto IS NOT under water and that, furthermore, the camera itself is to blame.

A better quality camera gives us this shot:

(https://i.ibb.co/TMv8PLT/st1.jpg)

Did the water subside to 90 METERS?

This is what you are telling your readers, that the water magically disappeared from a level of 300 meters down to 90 meters.

See how easy it is to debunk your silliness and at the same time save you some money?


All of your photographic evidence of whatever is thereby rendered inadmissible as well, don't count?

It is a matter of TRUST.

I can prove to you immediately how the LEONOV mission were faked. Would you trust anything coming from the Soviet/Russian space missions? Of course not.

I can prove to you immediately how the EXPLORER mission was faked. Would you trust anything coming from Nasa again? Of course not.

Go ahead and try to disprove the photographs posted by me here from both professional and amateur photographers.

Atmospheric refraction has been carefully measured and studied since the work of Tycho Brahe!

Now perhaps you can stop playing and try defending your nonsense claims regarding rockets?

WHAT?!

You want to debate rockets with me?

Here is the equation of motion describing the librational motion of an arbitrarily shaped satellite in a planar, elliptical orbit:

(1 + εμcosθ)ψ" - 2εμsinθ(ψ' + 1) + 3Kisinψcosψ = 0

ψ' = δψ/δθ

Ki = (Ixx - Izz/Iyy

εμ = eccentricity of the orbit

For small ε, and using 1/(1 + εμcosθ) = 1 - εμcosθ + O(ε2), we obtain


ψ" + 3Kisinψcosψ = ε[2μsinθ(ψ' + 1) + 3μKisinψcosψcosθ] + O(ε2)

This is a fully nonlinear ordinary differential equation (initial condition). For weakly nonlinear ODE, we can use methods such as multiple scaling and averaging.

For a fully nonlinear ODE, we need very advanced perturbation techniques: the Melnikov method.


Even for a simpler version of this fully nonlinear differential equation, the orbit of a tethered satellite system, we will get chaotical motions for realistic/real flight parameters:

http://www.uni-magdeburg.de/ifme/zeitschrift_tm/1996_Heft4/Peng.pdf

In theory, time delay feedback control methods are used to try to minimize the chaotical motion; however, in real time flight, parameters values can and will exceed the data used in the theorized version.


It is very easy to show that the gravitational escape velocity equation is false.

ve = − √[2GM/(r + h)]

Rocket science tells us that the gravitational potential energy between two objects is:

PEi = −GMm/Ri

(https://www.school-for-champions.com/science/images/gravitation_escape_velocity_derivation_factors.gif)

Therefore, the general expression for gravitational potential energy arises from the law of attractive gravity, in heliocentrism.

(http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/images/Uint.gif)

It takes a single counterexample to invalidate a hypothesis.

There is no such thing as the law of universal gravitation: it follows that the gravitational escape velocity equation is completely false.

Nobody is saying that refraction is not possible.

But the images would look different.

Do you mind if I show where your photos came from?
Here: MIRAGES IN FINLAND, You can observe shifting horizons, eerie ships and other mirages along the Finnish coastline. (https://finland.fi/life-society/mirages-in-finland/)

Quote from: sandokhan
Nothing of the sort in the photograph from St. Catherines.
No there wasn't and I claimed no mirage at all "in the photograph from St. Catherines".

All I claimed was no more than a few arcminutes of refraction as is commonly encountered over water.

That is why your argument falls to the ground.
Not at all!

As for the 24 meter deletion, if it helps your cognitive dissonance, sure go ahead and make your day.
No "cognitive dissonance" on my part.
But either you are ignorant of the differences between simple refraction, looming,  and inferior/superior mirages of trying to pull a"swifty" to prop up your non-existent case.

I'm not asking you for any 10 metres! I've taken all I need.

But little do you know! A sunny day can be the worst because the air heats faster than the water which is the very thing that can cause excess refraction!

It boils down to this
It boils down to this:
Rockets work in a vacuum.
That is what all the available evidence indicates.
That is what all known physics indicates.

This thread has being going for quite some time, with you repeatedly avoiding a very simple question.
You are yet to even attempt to answer it.
Instead you only ever want to discuss what happens after this key issue.

So I ask again, this time making it even clearer where we begin:
We start with the hot gas inside the combustion chamber of the rocket. It has just been burnt. It is currently moving with the rocket, with the chamber having a hole connecting to the nozzle and then to the vacuum of space.
What happens?

Now perhaps you can stop playing and try defending your nonsense claims regarding rockets?
WHAT?!
You want to debate rockets with me?
As that is the topic of this thread, YES!
You made a bunch of baseless claims regarding a moon of Saturn allegedly disproving rockets working in space.
After that was repeatedly destroyed, you then fled from that topic and tried to hide it with mountains of BS.

Can you address that?
Can you either back up your claims, showing clearly that there should be a significant effect, with the relevant, referenced numbers, and that this effect does not occur (not just an absence of evidence of it occurring, show we have precise data on its motion to show this effect does not occur), or admit that it shows nothing about the functioning of rockets in a vacuum.

ROCKET!!!
Do you understand what a rocket is?

It is very easy to show that the gravitational escape velocity equation is false.
ve = − √[2GM/(r + h)]
No, it is literally impossible.
You can stick your head in the sand about gravity and pretend it doesn't exist, but that does nothing to prove that this equation is false.
This is also not directly connected to rockets.

So I ask again, this time making it even clearer where we begin:
We start with the hot gas inside the combustion chamber of the rocket. It has just been burnt. It is currently moving with the rocket, with the chamber having a hole connecting to the nozzle and then to the vacuum of space.
What happens?
This is what happens :

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
Thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)

NASA SAYS  :

"The physics involved in the generation of thrust is introduced in middle school and studied in some detail in high school and college. To accelerate the gas, we have to expend energy. The energy is generated as heat by the combustion of some fuel."

According to Jack, generated energy (as heat by the combustion) is the force which produces another force (thrust) which is (mass (flow (rate) * (exhaust velocity).

The first force (combustion-expansion-chemical reaction) forces one part of the second force (mass flow rate) to accelerate (which is another part of the second force).

So, we have the first force (chemical reaction) and the second force (thrust).
Now, according to Jack's logic, the second force is not the whole force, but only one part of the second force (mass (flow rate)).

In order to get the entire force (thrust) we need the first force (chemical reaction) which is going to accelerate one part of the first force (mass).

Now, according to Jack, the first force (chemical reaction) is actual-real force, and thrust is only one part of what it really is (mass (flow rate)).

This is how Jack invented something (first force) that can artificially separate thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)) from a rocket.

So, the first body is a rocket, second body is a thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity), and the force is actually the first force (chemical reaction) which accelerates second body (thrust) so that we can finally get thrust in it's integrality.

This is an interesting theory (which eventually boils down to nothing more than meaningless wordplay), but it is plainly wrong, that is to say : just one among many classical examples of notorious Jack's stupidities.

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

Jack still hasn't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases= thrust= mass flow rate* exhaust velocity) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..

What happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

The gas cannot push the ship with the nozzle closed because gas trapped in the combustion chamber does no work but if you open the nozzle all the gas exits immediately before it can push against the ship. Therefore you cannot use gas in the vacuum to power a rocket ship.

This force pushing a rocket cannot be pushing on the inside of the rocket any more than you can push with your feet upwards against the inside of a cardboard box you are within to stop it from falling from a height. It sounds absurd but that is what NASA claims happens in a rocket.

An object sitting on the ground can only move upwards if it is pushed from underneath or lifted from the side/top. Since we know rockets are not lifted , they must be pushed. Therefore the gasses underneath the rocket must be pushing it up and off the launchpad.

An object moving straight up into the air will eventually be pulled back down by gravity unless it is continuously pushed from underneath or pulled from the top/side by a force greater than gravity.

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

3. Jack, have you ever seen this :

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

BULLSHIT :

An airplane propeller DOES push against the air and in so doing it DOES impart a reactive force to the plane because the prop is a solid object CONNECTED to the plane.

Rocket exhaust isn’t connected to the rocket so it can’t function as a pushing medium to the rocket as a propeller does.

Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle. There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.

That is how rocket thrust works. The continued expansion of gasses caused by burning high energy fuel builds up pressure but the pressure is always lower at the rear of the rocket motor due to the open nozzle. The higher pressure in the forward part of the motor maintains an imbalance of forces so the rocket continues to move as long as fuel is burned.

In addition to the above force there is also some thrust caused by rearward ejection of mass (the exhaust) in accordance with Newton’s 3rd Law.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

COMMON SENSE :

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.

To save time, I will tell you how I interpret Newtons 3 Laws of Motion. If you disagree then there is no longer a reason to continue this thread as we differ on basic laws of physics which won’t be resolved here. If you agree with me, then there is much to discuss.

Let’s start with Newtons 3 Laws of Motion.

Fist Law: For an object to remain as it is, either moving or not, the sum of the forces on it are zero.
Sigma F = 0

Second Law: For a body to accelerate, there must be a force on it.
F = ma

Third Law: For every force in one direction, there is an equal force in the opposite direction.
F1 = – F2 or F1 + F2 = 0

Notice how all of Newtons Laws of Motion contain the term ‘force’. Newton used the term ‘force’ to explain how objects are pushed and pulled in our universe.

This is how I see Newtons 3rd Law applied to rockets flying through our atmosphere:

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

The way you are explaining it, is that molecules hitting inside a chamber are moving the rocket forward, AND the rocket is moving forward. You did mention the perhaps the exhaust might move it forward also somewhat, but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.

You can’t have two positive forces. F1 + F2 would then be greater than zero, and that defies Newtons 3rd Law. My point is the exhaust out the back is not the minor part, it is the major part of the force. Newtons 3rd law says it has to be.

4. Jack, have you ever seen this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)
So you go and find the "As we shall see latter(sic), maximum thrust occurs when Pe=Pa" and find out what it means.
[/quote]
(https://i.postimg.cc/63h5Rmpy/ROCKET-PROPULSION-2-X.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/7L112934/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY.jpg)

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

Now you try to deceived everybody and ridicule Dr Neil deGrasse Tyson, whose a 100 times the man you'll ever be!

1. Have you ever seen this, Rabinoz :


It seems as if the only thing on NASA paid shill's mind is crack cocaine. If somebody offers NASA shill any of it, he'll jump at it and take it. It's like offering a starving man a loaf of bread...
NASA shills are prepared to do anything (twisting logic, raping common sense, talking all kinds of senseless rubbish... ENDLESSLY) so to get their next fix of coke.
NASA shills are a desperate losers, and a drug addicts, only is hard to tell what exact drug are they on...
Having in mind the degree and the extent of their despair, it must be some special drug....

2. Have you ever seen this, Rabinoz :
Now, two interesting questions for Rabinoz and Jack Black :

Q1 : Why would GAU-8 Recoil Flying Broom(stick) "fly" in a vacuum much better than a rocket, (at least IN PRICIPLE)???
Q2 : Why our midget soldier wouldn't manage to fly harnessing GAU-8 Avanger's Recoil Power, turning it into An Effective Flying Broom(stick), here on Earth???

If you asked yourself why i added (at the end of the first question) words in brackets ("at least IN PRINCIPLE"), then the following passage you can use as an explanation (that is to say : the following words will serve as an explanation as to why GAU-8 Avenger will "fly" better in a vacuum than a rocket ONLY IN PRINCIPLE, NOT IN PRACTICE) :

NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense. A bullet has very little mass in comparison to a rifle and the man holding the rifle. For example, a bullet fired from an M16 rifle has approx 1763 Joules of kinetic energy as it leaves the muzzle, but the recoil energy exerted on the gun is less than 7 Joules. We may intuitively - and without resorting to complex equations - imagine that "recoil power" alone would not allow a given mass of rocket exhaust to lift a 100.000kg vessel from the ground - let alone propel it at supersonic speeds.

To attain the so-called escape velocity of 8km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 8km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

3. Have you ever seen this, Rabinoz :

LO AND BEHOLD :

Jack, Rabinoz, and co., all you have to do is to put Tom Bishop's argument (Escape Velocity a.k.a. Flight Direction : Strictly Away from the center of the Earth) in this particular perspective :
Rubbish! Your "particular perspective" is totally ludicrous as i show below,
Quote from: cikljamas
DANSITY TABLE :
(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

(Just to put all this into perspective, on the other side of the spectrum we see that a "black hole" - considered by scientists as the highest imaginable pressure known to mankind - is 10 ^+27. In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)
I am not answering all that in one go but first the total misoperation in you "density table". But why on earth do you use those funny cgs units and not SI units?

First of all your "density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> BLACK HOLES" is total garbage!
"Density differences" are quite irrelevant anyway. It is only "pressure differences" that matter though for gasses they are related.

And it appears that you missed out on arithmetic in school because the difference between two numbers say A and B is A - B and NOT A/B.

It appears that you do not know even the simplest rules of arithmetic!
So the difference between (air density) and the (density of free space)  is simply only 10-3 - 10-24 = 10-3 gm/cm3.


As far as a rocket's performance goes or the stresses involved in pressurising a crew habitat is make little difference if the pressure outside is one hundredth or one trillionth of normal atmospheric pressure.

And it makes you claim "In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)" totally ludicrous!

But the density gap/difference between AIR vs VACUUM is just 1 while the density gap/difference between "BLACK HOLES" vs WATER is 1027 - not in the same "ball-park"!.

That doesn't have the emotional impact of your ridiculous and meaningless 1060, does it?

But you talk of densities rather misses the point! It is external pressure differences that slightly affect the thrust.

So, what our great mathematician Rabinoz is actually saying is this :

When you subtract 0,0001 from 1, you get 0,9999...Now, since 0,9999 is practically 1, then the difference between 0,0001 and 1 is 1, not 10000!!!

In an example above, according to our Einstein (Rabinoz) the difference between 10^-3 and 10^-24 is 10^-3 because we have to subtract 10^-24 from 10^-3 in order to get the difference... The difference (in literal meaning of this word "the difference") is 10^-3, indeed, but the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"

So, the real difference between our two numbers (between density of air and density of vacuum) is 10^21 a.k.a. sextillion a.k.a order of magnitude 21.

NASA is no match to our Einstein (Rabinoz)!!!


4. Have you ever seen this Rabinoz :

I am transferring the following passage from one other discussion on the same subject :

Real life analogies work great to explain scientific phenomena. In fact, I prefer them because we may not all agree on the definition of terms that Nasa and other space scientists use.

You used this analogy:

“Place a firecracker under an empty inverted can and light it. When it explodes the can flies upward because the forces from the expanding gas of the explosion are not countered in the upward direction so that is the direction it moves. And, it doesn’t move merely because the gasses “push against the ground” under the can. It would work as well if the can were suspended by a string and away from the ground.”

Your assumption that a can suspended upside down by a string would also fly up in the air.

I have tried this experiment and the can DOES NOT fly up in the air. The can moves slightly upward, but does not “fly up”.

We taped a Black Cat firecracker to the inside of a green bean can with no lid, set it on the ground upside down with the wick sticking outside the can. With the same set up, we place another green bean can on the barbecue grill.

For the can on the ground, when the firecracker blew, the can soared into the air about 20 feet. For the can on the grill, when the firecracker blew, the can only jumped up about 4 inches.

Ya, we blow a lot of stuff up when its firecracker season using all manner of objects and environments. I have had a pretty active childhood and have experimented quite a bit with scientific principles.

When it is said that a can on the ground behaves the same way as a can suspended in air when firecrackers are exploding inside them I have to disagree based on my own experience.

Clearly, the ground is aiding the can somehow in gaining all that extra height. It could also be said that the grill and its lack of ground is prohibiting the can from flying up.

Without using the idea of “pushing against the ground”, how would you explain the difference in heights of the two green bean cans?

2. Have you ever seen this, Rabinoz :
Now, two interesting questions for Rabinoz and Jack Black :

Q1 : Why would GAU-8 Recoil Flying Broom(stick) "fly" in a vacuum much better than a rocket, (at least IN PRICIPLE)???
Q2 : Why our midget soldier wouldn't manage to fly harnessing GAU-8 Avanger's Recoil Power, turning it into An Effective Flying Broom(stick), here on Earth???
I might consider wasting time on you AFTER you have shown yourself man enough to apologise for your stupid lying deceitful fake Neil  DeGrass (sic) video and your use of "photoShopped" photos.

Goodbye!

According to Jack
Stop lying.
That is according to your strawman, not me.

Copying and pasting the same garbage is not going to help you.
No where in it do you actually address my question.

Again: HOW IS THE GAS ACCELERATED?
Apply Newton's laws of motion to the gas, initially in the rocket at rest relative to the rocket.

Don't just start with magically accelerated gas. Tell us how the gas is accelerated; or claim that it will magically stay inside the rocket.

Don't bother with any other garbage, just answer the question.

Hey we're back to the topic of rockets in a vacuum at last!

This is what happens :

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
Thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)

F=ma, this we agree on.  If we were to diagram it out, we would draw a force with one arrow and an equal and opposite force with another arrow in the opposite direction.  We agree that this means the two m*a terms are equal (right? we agree on that?).  That does not mean the two masses are equal, nor the two accelerations are equal.

What are the two masses?  We've got a rocket on one end, and the exhaust on the other.  The force makes the rocket go one way and the exhaust gas go the other way.  The rocket and the exhaust have different masses thus different accelerations, as one should expect.

Gas is not a force.  Expelled gas is not a force.  What's is the force?  Force is the interaction that changes the motion of an object, to steal the first sentence of Wikipedia.  It is the change in momentum with time.  In SI, it's measured in newtons, which is the same as kg*m/s2.  Mass in kg, acceleration in m/s2.  Gas is not measured in newtons.  How up gas do you have?  You can measure that in kg.  You correctly identify the chemical reaction as the source of the force.  To what is that force being applied?  The rocket on one side, the gas on the other.


I'm wondering if you're thinking about this in the following way.  Something like, the exhaust gas is a "force carrier" that mediates the interaction between the rocket and whatever the exhaust is blasting, such as the atmosphere.  If that is so, let me know.  Also let me know if I'm guessing you wrong.  The problem with this view is that it does not take into account what is interacting with the exhaust gas itself.  The gas is not a free agent to be recruited by the chemical reaction.  It has interia, just like any mass, and that inertia costs energy to move around.  It's just like shooting bullets out of a rifle.  One mass is the bullet, the other is the rifle.  The bullet's light mass is highly accelerated, the rifle (and rifleman's) heavy mass is not accelerated as much, but you still get kickback.  Or to scale it up, the A-10 Warthog can (so I've been told) fire its gatling gun continually enough to stall it out.  All that kickback eats up its forward velocity in the air.  But the bullet is not a "force carrier" for the airplane.  Except in the rhetorical sense, I suppose.
But this analogy has already been brought up, so I won't expand on it further.

It's simply that ignorant folk like you that fail to understand that the "Earth's movement through space" causes nothing you can even measure!
Even the sedate Earth's rotation at about 0.00069 RPM is hard enough to measure with very sensitive instruments!

For the simple reason that there is nothing to adjust to! You feel only acceleration and especially changes in acceleration!

The acceleration due to the earth's rotation is only about 0.3% of gravity and simply changes the effective g very slightly - so no one feels it!

The acceleration due to the earth's orbiting the sun is far less at about 0.006 m/s2 but that is almost exactly constant anyway so there is nothing to be felt.

Mr Plat Terra, you seem such an expert in demonstrating the numerous way that flat earthers fail to understand such simple concepts - keep it up!

I and others also have the right to debate those beliefs when the people present them as posts in the General or Debate forums - that is why they do it.

This is not from anyone here but from a "rabid" flat earther, The Greatest Lie on Earth Proof That Our World Is Not a Moving Globe Edward Hendrie (https://isitreallyflat.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/The-Greatest-Lie-on-Earth-Proof-That-Our-World-Is-Not-A-Moving-Globe.pdf). Try reading that!

And all flat-earthers explicitly or implicitly accuse a great many of lying to the "general populace" to "hide the true shape of the earth".

"Right to expression" is to be defended until it impinges too much on the rights of others or worse falsely accuses others of the most horrendous crimes.

This is my post with which i somehow managed to offend you :

Can you explain how trillions of billions of water stay glued next to the outer surface of a sphere?

What would pull those "trillions of billions of water" anywhere else against the Earth's gravity?
Where to?

It boils down to this : Should we expect people and elephants to fall off (the face of) the earth easier than a butterflies or a flies? And if yes why? This guy nailed it down :

These guys nailed it down, also :



And now, something completely different :

If you carefully studied my argumentation provided on the pages to which you will be directed by clicking the links above, you would easily figure out why Rabinoz is right claiming :

"The left photo show a considerable hidden height but your flat earth should hide nothing, zilch."

Now, care to answer these three simple questions :

1. Who have been ridiculed in three videos above???
A) Flat-earthers
B) Round-earthers

2. Rabinoz is
A) Flat-earther
B) Round-earther

3. Can you rationally refute/dispute logical consistency/validity (and benevolence) of what has been tried to convey to you with the following sentence :
Rab, only a seriously mental ill person would think someone is trying to pass that video as real. Where is your common sense?

4. Are we talking here about "wrong drug dealer" problem or something else, much more prosaic (nonetheless, still -potentially- pretty ecstatic) is the real issue here???

This thread?
It started with your lie that rockets can't work in a vacuum.
That topic seems to have died after my question which you still haven't answered.

Again: HOW IS THE GAS ACCELERATED?
Apply Newton's laws of motion to the gas, initially in the rocket at rest relative to the rocket.

Don't just start with magically accelerated gas. Tell us how the gas is accelerated; or claim that it will magically stay inside the rocket.

Don't bother with any other garbage, just answer the question.

Initially in the rocket at rest relative to the rocket?
Is that the same moment when the rocket is still at rest relative to the earth, also?

I answered all your questions, and if you think i didn't, then why don't you enlighten us (finally), instead of endlessly regurgitating your same stupid questions?

Once again, just for you :

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
Thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)

NASA SAYS  :

"The physics involved in the generation of thrust is introduced in middle school and studied in some detail in high school and college. To accelerate the gas, we have to expend energy. The energy is generated as heat by the combustion of some fuel."

According to Jack, generated energy (as heat by the combustion) is the force which produces another force (thrust) which is (mass (flow (rate) * (exhaust velocity).

The first force (combustion-expansion-chemical reaction) forces one part of the second force (mass flow rate) to accelerate (which is another part of the second force).

So, we have the first force (chemical reaction) and the second force (thrust).
Now, according to Jack's logic, the second force is not the whole force, but only one part of the second force (mass (flow rate)).

In order to get the entire force (thrust) we need the first force (chemical reaction) which is going to accelerate one part of the first force (mass).

Now, according to Jack, the first force (chemical reaction) is actual-real force, and thrust is only one part of what it really is (mass (flow rate)).

This is how Jack invented something (first force) that can artificially separate thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)) from a rocket.

So, the first body is a rocket, second body is a thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity), and the force is actually the first force (chemical reaction) which accelerates second body (thrust) so that we can finally get thrust in it's integrality.

This is an interesting theory (which eventually boils down to nothing more than meaningless wordplay), but it is plainly wrong, that is to say : just one among many classical examples of notorious Jack's stupidities.

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

Jack still hasn't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases= thrust= mass flow rate* exhaust velocity) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..

What happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

The gas cannot push the ship with the nozzle closed because gas trapped in the combustion chamber does no work but if you open the nozzle all the gas exits immediately before it can push against the ship. Therefore you cannot use gas in the vacuum to power a rocket ship.
This force pushing a rocket cannot be pushing on the inside of the rocket any more than you can push with your feet upwards against the inside of a cardboard box you are within to stop it from falling from a height. It sounds absurd but that is what NASA claims happens in a rocket.

An object sitting on the ground can only move upwards if it is pushed from underneath or lifted from the side/top. Since we know rockets are not lifted , they must be pushed. Therefore the gasses underneath the rocket must be pushing it up and off the launchpad.

An object moving straight up into the air will eventually be pulled back down by gravity unless it is continuously pushed from underneath or pulled from the top/side by a force greater than gravity.

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

3. Jack, have you ever seen this :

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

BULLSHIT :

An airplane propeller DOES push against the air and in so doing it DOES impart a reactive force to the plane because the prop is a solid object CONNECTED to the plane.

Rocket exhaust isn’t connected to the rocket so it can’t function as a pushing medium to the rocket as a propeller does.

Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle. There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.

That is how rocket thrust works. The continued expansion of gasses caused by burning high energy fuel builds up pressure but the pressure is always lower at the rear of the rocket motor due to the open nozzle. The higher pressure in the forward part of the motor maintains an imbalance of forces so the rocket continues to move as long as fuel is burned.

In addition to the above force there is also some thrust caused by rearward ejection of mass (the exhaust) in accordance with Newton’s 3rd Law.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

COMMON SENSE :

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.

To save time, I will tell you how I interpret Newtons 3 Laws of Motion. If you disagree then there is no longer a reason to continue this thread as we differ on basic laws of physics which won’t be resolved here. If you agree with me, then there is much to discuss.

Let’s start with Newtons 3 Laws of Motion.

Fist Law: For an object to remain as it is, either moving or not, the sum of the forces on it are zero.
Sigma F = 0

Second Law: For a body to accelerate, there must be a force on it.
F = ma

Third Law: For every force in one direction, there is an equal force in the opposite direction.
F1 = – F2 or F1 + F2 = 0

Notice how all of Newtons Laws of Motion contain the term ‘force’. Newton used the term ‘force’ to explain how objects are pushed and pulled in our universe.

This is how I see Newtons 3rd Law applied to rockets flying through our atmosphere:

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

The way you are explaining it, is that molecules hitting inside a chamber are moving the rocket forward, AND the rocket is moving forward. You did mention the perhaps the exhaust might move it forward also somewhat, but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.

You can’t have two positive forces. F1 + F2 would then be greater than zero, and that defies Newtons 3rd Law. My point is the exhaust out the back is not the minor part, it is the major part of the force. Newtons 3rd law says it has to be.

4. Jack, have you ever seen this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)
So you go and find the "As we shall see latter(sic), maximum thrust occurs when Pe=Pa" and find out what it means.

(https://i.postimg.cc/7L112934/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY.jpg)

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

This explanation not what you find in any science site about rockets. It seems that rocket engineers are designing rocket engines to work in a completely different way to your claim.

According to your understanding how does the atmosphere "push back" on a molecular level? The gas molecule leaves the rocket engine, hits an air molecule which pushes it back to the rocket? Could you explain the molecules interact to make the rocket move?

The first force (combustion-expansion-chemical reaction) forces one part of the second force (mass flow rate) to accelerate (which is another part of the second force).

So, we have the first force (chemical reaction) and the second force (thrust).

Mass flow rate is not force. 

Think about the units.  Mass flow rate is kg/s.  Force is kg*m/s2.

Chemical reaction is not force.

But it causes force!  The expanded gas applies force in all directions of the rocket nozzle.  Equivalently, in case you're imagining the gas as "force carriers", the gas transfers force in all directions.  It's the same thing, it just depends on how much detail you want to include in the diagram.  The force on the sides of the nozzle balance out (as long as the bell doesn't rupture).  What happens to the gas in the direction of the back of the rocket?  It flies out the rocket, as there is nothing there to stop it.  What happens to the gas in the direction of the front of the rocket?  It pushes the rocket forward.  Why?  Because the equal and opposite force at the the rear of the rocket is not applied (or transferred) to the rocket.  The gas is instead escaping.  The force applied towards the rear is not against anything structurally attached, as the sides are.  That imbalance of force within the rocket bell results in the acceleration of the entire rocket.

Yes, initially in the rocket, at rest relative to the rocket. This is not a difficult concept to grasp.
The fuel initially moves with the rocket, i.e. is at rest relative to the rocket. You need to explain how it accelerates.

Is that the same moment when the rocket is still at rest relative to the earth, also?
That is entirely irrelevant.

I answered all your questions, and if you think i didn't, then why don't you enlighten us (finally), instead of endlessly regurgitating your same stupid questions?
No you haven't, and the question isn't stupid at all. If it was, you would have answered it by now rather than continually deflecting.
You have repeatedly avoided this question, likely because you know it shows you are completely wrong and that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.
If you think you have answered it, feel free to provide exactly where. As a reminder, this needs to show what is happening in a vacuum, identifying a second body and explaining how the gas accelerates, not dealing with rockets in air, nor starting with the gas already accelerated.

I have also provided the answer before.
The gas interacts with the rocket, with this collision between the energetic gas particles and the rocket forcing the gas to accelerate backwards, out the rocket, while the rocket is forced to accelerate forwards.

If you want to go an even deeper level down, the energetic reaction heats up the gas and pushes it away from each other, causing it to expand in all directions. Some of this will go straight out of the rocket, but some will hit the rocket and be forced backwards. You might think this will produce less thrust, as less gas is being forced backwards by the rocket, but it doesn't as the gas that is being forced backwards by the rocket was already forced forwards by the rest of the gas and thus needs a larger force to move it backwards.

The answer shows that rockets do work in a vacuum, something you refuse to admit.

So if you want to accept that rockets work in a vacuum, go ahead and accept my answer and admit they do. Otherwise provide an answer to the question.

Once again, just for you :
Repeating the same BS spam will not help you.
Try to actually read what I have said and respond to that, not what you want me to have said.
Don't bother with more pathetic distractions to avoid this very simple, intelligent question.
Either answer the question and explain just how the gas accelerates, taking Newton's laws into consideration, or admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

Admitting your own mistakes is a total mystery to you. If you think i am accusing you wrongly, then show us one single example of your admission of one single mistake ever made by you. Only stupid people never change their minds. Let me show you one new example of admitting my own mistakes :

Alpha2Omega words in blue...
Cikljamas words in purple...

Alpha, thanks for a nicely depicted scenario which we are going to use in order to conduct further analysis regarding the expected results of testing (in reality) our "vertically fired projectiles" thought experiment :

    So, a ship is steaming west (counter direction of earth's alleged rotation) at 10 meters per second (36 km/h).

    Now, we have to see what should we expect to happen in two different scenarios :

    1. THE EARTH IS STATIONARY scenario :

    1A) - When we move our test platform forward within the ship's hull at another 10 m/s
    we should expect (according to our formula above) lagging of the bullet (in the moment of touching the ship's hull on it's (bullet's) way down) behind the test platform.

    1B) - When we move our test platform backward within the ship's hull at 10 m/s we should expect the bullet coming back right at the muzzle of the gun fixed on our test platform, since the momentum of a ship has been canceled out by moving our test platform in counter direction of ship's motion which speed is identical to the speed of our test platform.


No. If the earth were stationary (i.e. not rotating) TE goes infinite and delta goes to zero. If the platform runs on a slightly curved track with radius equal to the earth's radius, then the 20 m/s sum of the speed of the cart to the west on the slightly curved track plus speed of the boat to the west along the slightly curved surface of the water's surface, that would introduce a time of rotation of -2,003,739 seconds (about 24 days; negative because it's to the west), causing the projectile to theoretically land about 1.4 mm east of the launch point if launched to a height of 50 meters (we want to keep it inside the hull, so that may be the practical limit, depending on the ship and how they can accommodate your test apparatus and height requirements).

    2. THE EARTH IS A SPINNING GLOBE scenario :

    2A) - When we move our test platform forward within the ship's hull at another 10 m/s we should expect (according to our formula)  lagging of the test platform (not the bullet - as it was the case in our STATIONARY EARTH scenario) behind the bullet (in the moment the bullet comes back to the "ground" (ship's hull)).

    2B) - When we move our test platform backward at 10 m/s the bullet should fall back on ship's hull in the same direction as it was the case in 2A) scenario, and in this case the bullet should lag to a greater degree behind the platform, than the platform should lag behind the bullet in 2A) scenario.


No. In 2A, the platform is moving west at 20 m/s (10 m/s from the ship's speed and 10 m/s from the platform's motion within the ship). In 2B, the platform is not moving wrt the earth's surface (10 m/s west from the ship's speed and 10 m/s east from the platform's motion within the ship adds to 0 m/s net). If it's at the equator, this motion increases TE from the sidereal rotation period 86170 seconds to 90042 seconds when moving west at 20 m/s, and, if the projectile is launched 50 meters, delta is reduced from 0.0311 meters (31.1 mm) when still wrt the surface, to 0.0297 meters (29.7 mm) moving west at 20 m/s, a difference of 1.4 mm (iow, it lands 1.4 mm east of where it would have landed in the net zero west motion). Good luck getting any consistency seeing that when launching to a height of 50 meters from a moving platform within a moving boat. In both cases the projectile lands west of the gun since the net rotation is toward the east in both 2A and 2B.

    Do you see the problem for THE EARTH IS A SPINNING GLOBE scenario???


Nope. There's an obvious problem with your analysis, though. You've managed to thoroughly confuse yourself. Again.


    2A scenario = lagging the platform behind the bullet (which is absolutely conterintuitive and impossible to happen in this world)
    2B scenario = lagging the bullet behind the platform (which is in accordance with stationary earth scenario)

    You see, while attempting to reduce a degree of bullet's lagging behind the platform (towards the front side of a ship - towards the west) we should witness some quite extraordinary phenomena : all of the sudden the platform should start to lag behind the bullet, because you can't expect to reverse the whole process (by moving towards west - instead of towards east) in such a radical way that the bullet should fall easterly from the moving platform. The bullet should still have to fall westerly from the platform, but to the lesser degree than when moving our platform eastward. Only, such a radical reversal isn't something that anyone would ever expect to happen in reality as we know it, is it???


The net easterly rotation causes a slight deflection of the projectile toward the west. Period.

If the experiment were perfectly carried out, the projectile would land slightly west of the launch point on the carriage both times. In one case, it's "ahead" of the launch point since the carriage is going west; in the other it's "behind" the launch point since the carriage is going east. All you've done is swap whether west means "ahead of" or "behind" the carriage. That's all.

See? That wasn't so hard, was it?

What is the problem here?
Both of us were wrong, since it is not true that if the experiment were perfectly carried out, the projectile would land slightly west of the launch point on the carriage both times. There is no way (no physical justification) that in 2A scenario (spinning globe scenario) the platform would lag behind the bullet...It would not, no matter if the earth rotates or not...

Consider again what it would be like if you were in freefall in a vacuum, or equivalently floating in space, and if you were sealed in a cardboard box.  You kick a side of the box.  Not much happens, maybe you start to tumble.  But what if the box was open, as with a rocket nozzle?  What happens if you kick the box?  Can you kick it away?  Do you and the box drift in opposite directions?  As seen from a camera floating out of reach, do you move out of frame?  Or does the box move out of frame?  Or both?  Which moves out of frame faster?

An object sitting on the ground can only move upwards if it is pushed from underneath or lifted from the side/top. Since we know rockets are not lifted , they must be pushed. Therefore the gasses underneath the rocket must be pushing it up and off the launchpad.
And the magical, musical question that you still aren't answering is "how exactly do those gasses push the rocket up and off the launchpad?"

Under which of these two categories would you classify an air balloon?

1. Why airplane and ship propellers work differently, but using the same operating principle (NEWTON'S THIRD LAW)?

It's easy to see why there's a difference if we go back to Newton's third law. The simplest way to think of a propeller is as a device that moves a vehicle forward by pushing air or water backward. The force on the backward-moving fluid is equal to the force on the forward-moving vehicle. Now force is also the rate at which something's momentum changes, so we can also see a propeller as a device that gives a ship or a plane forward momentum by giving air or water an equal amount of backward momentum. Sea water is about 1000 times more dense than air (at sea level), so you need to move much more air than water to produce a similar change in momentum.

PUSHING BACKWARD = PUSHING OFF OF

2. Action and reaction

When we talk about jet engines, we to tend think of rocket-like tubes that fire exhaust gas backward. Another basic bit of physics, Newton's third law of motion, tells us that as a jet engine's exhaust gas shoots back, the plane itself must move forward.

PUSHING BACKWARD = PUSHING OFF OF

3. Jet engine is just more efficient than propellers, but the principle of working is the same in both cases : NEWTON'S THIRD LAW!!!

However, if anybody thinks that there's an essential difference (regarding the principle of working) between jet engines and propellers then i would like to see what makes the core of that difference.

You see, we are supposed to believe that there is an essential difference regarding the principle of working between jet engines and propellers, however, such difference doesn't exist in reality.

According to official science, although NEWTON'S THIRD LAW is a common explanation for how propellers, jets, and rockets work, NASA claims that jet engine's principle of working is basically "recoil mechanism" (this is how they are preparing us for swallowing their next lie, which pertains rocket's principle of working)...

That's a lot of words to dodge the very question you quoted.

Under which of those 2 will you classify a hot air balloon?

In addition. When the rocket's exhaust leaves and hits the air around it, how do the air molecules transfer that force back to the rocket to get it to move?

2 simple questions that you say a lot to avoid answering.

However, if anybody thinks that there's an essential difference (regarding the principle of working) between jet engines and propellers then i would like to see what makes the core of that difference.
Jet engines and propellers both work by chucking mass behind them.  The important difference with rockets is that while propellers and jet engines get their chucking-mass from the air in front of them, rocket engines get their chucking-mass from the solid or liquid fuel carried with them.

In all cases, the important part of their locomotion is having some mass and chucking it out the rear.  Just throw that mass backwards.  Doesn't matter where it comes from.  The faster you chuck it backwards, the faster you move forward.

The chucking mass doesn't have to be chucked against anything in particular.  You might get some extra bounce from recoiling off the ground, the way helicopters do, but that's not what's relevant here.  When you're on roller blades, you don't need to chuck a mass against a wall to roll forwards.  The rolling forwards doesn't happen when the chucked mass hits anything.  It happens when you chuck it.

Chucking is key.

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense. If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one. Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks. If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.

You seem to have a fixation with NASA, but "Rockets do not push against air" doesn't seem to come only from NASA. From what I've seen every physicist is saying the same thing as NASA when asked this question.

Now, if opposite to what mainstream science say,  you claim that rockets work by pushing against air, why don't you explain how this work mechanically? This has been asked to you several times, but you are not addressing the question.

I can imagine how the exhaust gases push the air around the exhaust, but I have a hard time imagining how you think the atmosphere gases are pushing  the rocket. Could you please explain how do the air molecules at the atmosphere interact with the rocket to exert a force on it? Do air molecules collide with the rocket and exert a force on it, is that what you think? Or do the air molecules collide with the exhaust gases expelled by the rocket and then the exhaust gases turn back and collide with the rocket?

Total and utter bullshit!
If you wish to dismiss it as BS you will need to provide an alternative.
You will need to explain how the gas accelerates.

but if you open the nozzle all the gas exits immediately before it can push against the ship.
See, this is total and utter bullshit!
It is a defiance of Newton's laws of motion.
The gas cannot escape without pushing against the rocket.
That is a key part of the question I have repeatedly asked.
In order for the gas to escape it needs to accelerate.
But as it has mass, it requires a force to accelerate, which demands an interaction with a second body, with the only available body being the rocket meaning the rocket needs to have a force applied to it by the gas to escape.
i.e. the gas MUST push the rocket BEFORE it can exit.
If it doesn't push against the rocket (pushing the rocket as well), it cannot exist.

This is what you need to address.
This is what you have repeatedly refused to address.

You need to tell us how the gas accelerates.
The rational answer is that it interacts with the rocket with each forcing the other the other way so the rocket is forced forwards and the gas is forced backwards.

If you want to say this doesn't happen, you need to provide an alternative.

That is why I have been repeatedly asking my very simple and intelligent question which exposes the complete insanity of your claim.

So are you going to finally try and address it or do us all a favour and admit you have been lying the whole time and that you know rockets do work in a vacuum?

If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.

A rocket rising through the atmosphere will nicely proceed upwards in its escape from gravity - as long as certain conditions are maintained: the relative pressures at the rocket's nozzle and the outside atmosphere need to be as equal as possible, in order to obtain maximum 'mileage' / efficiency from the rocket's fuel.

- In fact, NASA clearly states that the optimal running conditions of their rockets occur only ONCE, at a certain unspecified (mid-range) altitude, when the above-mentioned pressures are identical. This, in perfect accordance with Newton's 3d law - what with its notion of "equal and opposite forces". Clearly, these rockets are designed to work best in our earthly atmosphere - and the atmospheric pressure IS in fact "the equal and opposite force" which the rocket thrust pushes against. To deny this fact is pure, outlandish and deceptive NASA hogwash-babble. Ironically, it is NASA itself that claims that their rockets work BEST when those two pressures are equal !

- Aerodynamic drag will of course be a factor in the equation, yet only a minor one - given the pencil-shaped, streamlined vessel. As the atmosphere pressure thins out with altitude, some more speed will probably be gained (out of a given power output) - but this fact would, obviously, have no incidence whatsoever in alleviating the forces needed for the weight of the rocket to escape the pull of gravity.

- Now, as we have previously seen, the atmospheric density range which our spacebound rocket is supposed to operate in, spans from a pressure of 0,001 (the average air density in our atmosphere) to a staggeringly inferior pressure of 0,000000000000000000000001 (the density of space vacuum). Thus, as the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

- The rocket (at a given, high altitude which I cannot pretend to calculate precisely) will eventually be overpowered by the force of the exponentially decreasing outside pressure, its fuel being sucked out into the infinite 'vacuum of space' at stratospheric rate/speed - and faster than you can say "Houston-we-have-a-prob...---". Much like a champagne bottle popping its cork here on Earth (due to a minimal pressure difference), the rocket fuel will flush out with explosive force. Moreover, this force will expand in ALL directions (a bit like the diffused spray of your garden waterhose nozzle set on 'broad, soft mode') and provide little or no thrust. The rocket, from there on, will be doomed - and plunge back to Earth.

And for those willing to argue that NASA may have found a way to 'pinch' their rocket nozzles, so that the fuel doesn't get sucked out in a flash : well, you can always open a champagne bottle with great care, making the force inside it fizzle slowly out in the atmosphere. But such a subdued, impotent fizzle would hardly provide the necessary energy to propel a rocket away from Earth's gravity, would it?

Only a pinched fart would produce the same amount of 'power'(odor-power, in this case) as a vigorously expelled bowel-gas sample. We all know that much!

NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense.


To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do. Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum.

NO! As has been explained to you numerous times before:
A rocket rising through the atmosphere will nicely proceed upwards in its escape from gravity EVEN if  the relative pressures at the rocket's nozzle and the outside atmosphere are NOT as equal as possible

Equalising the exhaust pressure and the outside pressure does optimise the thrust but the change due to the pressures being different is comparatively minor.

Take a specific case:
The "sea-level" version of the SpaceX Merlin 1D delivers a thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.
While the "vacuum" version of the Merlin 1D (using a far larger bell) delivers a thrust of 934 kN (210,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

Quote from: cikljamas
In fact, NASA clearly states that the optimal running conditions of their rockets occur only ONCE, at a certain unspecified (mid-range) altitude, when the above-mentioned pressures are identical.
Yes, "optimal running conditions of their rockets occur only ONCE, at a certain unspecified (mid-range) altitude" but
understand this, a sea-level rocket engine will operate perfectly well from sea-level all the way to a perfect vacuum and neither NASA nor SpaceX say anything different.

Look again at the above thrusts for a SpaceX Merlin 1D sea-level engine: Thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

But a normal vacuum rocket engine cannot be used at sea-level because the excessive size of the bell causes flame instabilities which can wreck the engine.

So not only can a vacuum rocket engine NOT be used at sea-level but being far larger than a sea-level engine it is quite impractical.

Just compare the sizes of the SpaceX Merlin 1C sea-level engine and their vacuum engine, first the engines themselves, without the bell:
Left to right: Falcon 1 Merlin 1C, Falcon 9 1C and Falcon 9 2nd stage 1C vacuum
without the extension nozzle, so it's a shorter, fatter nozzle than the others:
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/0A9SH.jpg)
       And this extension nozzle of the vacuum engine looks like by itself:
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/YC9rw.jpg)
I tried to scale the two photos correctly.

So, just get this straight! A sea-level engine functions quite well from sea-level right to a perfect vacuum and gives its maximum thrust in a vacuum.
Look again at the above thrusts for a SpaceX Merlin 1D sea-level engine: Thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

This is in perfect accord with the rocket thrust equation, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1), used by Robert Goddard, ROSCOSMOS, NASA and Spacex!

No, NASA do not say that a given rocket engine "works BEST when those two pressures are equal".
What they do say is that the maximum efficiency can be achieved when the pressures are equal.

Look at spaceX's actual thrust figures again!
The "sea-level" version of the SpaceX Merlin 1D delivers a thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.
While the "vacuum" version of the Merlin 1D (using a far larger bell) delivers a thrust of 934 kN (210,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

The "vacuum engine" has only a marginally higher thrust in a vacuum.

Please learn what NASA (and everybody else) means when they say the "maximum efficiency" is when the pressures are equal.
"Maximum efficiency" is NOT the same as "maximum thrust" for a given engine and nozzle design.

If what you (and NASA) are saying was true, then you (NASA's spokesman) and NASA would be able to logically (mathematically) justify what NASA claims (not me) :
Rocket will perform at optimal (100 %) efficiency at certain (X) altitude which is somewhere in between See Level (Over-Expansion) and High Altitudes (Under-Expansion)!!!
Pe = Pressure at nozzle exit is always the same (more or less)
Pa = Outside ambient pressure is constantly/progressively (one way) changing (inversely proportional) with altitude, that is to say : as the rocket climbs higher and higher, outside ambient pressure is dropping in an irreversible (one way) manner!!! See :
(https://i.postimg.cc/3NnZMrbC/ROCKET-FORMULA-X.jpg)
So, as Pa is constantly dropping between See Level and X (optimal) altitude, rocket efficiency is getting better and better, then after passing beyond that X (optimal) altitude, Pa is still irreversibly dropping, but now, rocket efficiency starts to decay, which shouldn't be the case if rocket efficiency is at maximum when the outside pressure, Po, is zero! You (and NASA) can't have your cake and eat it too!!!

Jack, have you ever seen this :

Thrust=force=mass*acceleration.
Thrust = (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)

NASA SAYS  :

"The physics involved in the generation of thrust is introduced in middle school and studied in some detail in high school and college. To accelerate the gas, we have to expend energy. The energy is generated as heat by the combustion of some fuel."

According to Jack, generated energy (as heat by the combustion) is the force which produces another force (thrust) which is (mass (flow (rate) * (exhaust velocity).

The first force (combustion-expansion-chemical reaction) forces one part of the second force (mass flow rate) to accelerate (which is another part of the second force).

So, we have the first force (chemical reaction) and the second force (thrust).
Now, according to Jack's logic, the second force is not the whole force, but only one part of the second force (mass (flow rate)).

In order to get the entire force (thrust) we need the first force (chemical reaction) which is going to accelerate one part of the first force (mass).

Now, according to Jack, the first force (chemical reaction) is actual-real force, and thrust is only one part of what it really is (mass (flow rate)).

This is how Jack invented something (first force) that can artificially separate thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity)) from a rocket.

So, the first body is a rocket, second body is a thrust (which is actually just one part (mass (flow rate)) of what it really is : (mass flow rate) × (exhaust velocity), and the force is actually the first force (chemical reaction) which accelerates second body (thrust) so that we can finally get thrust in it's integrality.

This is an interesting theory (which eventually boils down to nothing more than meaningless wordplay), but it is plainly wrong, that is to say : just one among many classical examples of notorious Jack's stupidities.

Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."

Jack still hasn't watched this video :

https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ga9h2

No, the “second body” isn't the gases...in a rocket launch...the rocket (engine) is the “first body” applying force (expelled gases= thrust= mass flow rate* exhaust velocity) to a second body (ground, then atmosphere).. which “pushes back” with equal and opposite force.. on the first body (rocket) forcing it to go up..

What happens in a REAL and INFINITE vacuum, where there is no “second body” to act upon???

THE ROCKET (ENGINE) = FIRST BODY
THRUST FORCE = EXPELLED GASSES
GROUND/ATMOSPHERE = SECOND BODY

The gas cannot push the ship with the nozzle closed because gas trapped in the combustion chamber does no work but if you open the nozzle all the gas exits immediately before it can push against the ship. Therefore you cannot use gas in the vacuum to power a rocket ship.

This force pushing a rocket cannot be pushing on the inside of the rocket any more than you can push with your feet upwards against the inside of a cardboard box you are within to stop it from falling from a height. It sounds absurd but that is what NASA claims happens in a rocket.

An object sitting on the ground can only move upwards if it is pushed from underneath or lifted from the side/top. Since we know rockets are not lifted , they must be pushed. Therefore the gasses underneath the rocket must be pushing it up and off the launchpad.

An object moving straight up into the air will eventually be pulled back down by gravity unless it is continuously pushed from underneath or pulled from the top/side by a force greater than gravity.

The Expansion produces THRUST FORCE!

What law disables rockets (via expansion) from doing any useful work in a vacuum?

Free expansion!

What makes "the difference" between the Expansion and Free expansion?

Density of air/vacuum!

Why?

Resistance!

What it means?

It means that there is resistance in the air because the air is dense, hence : the air is the second body!
On the other hand, there is no resistance in a vacuum, hence : the second body is missing!

3. Jack, have you ever seen this :

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

BULLSHIT :

An airplane propeller DOES push against the air and in so doing it DOES impart a reactive force to the plane because the prop is a solid object CONNECTED to the plane.

Rocket exhaust isn’t connected to the rocket so it can’t function as a pushing medium to the rocket as a propeller does.

Rockets move by creating an imbalance of forces within the rocket motor causing more internal pressure in the forward direction and very little internal pressure rearward due to the opening of the rocket nozzle. There is also a secondary forward thrust caused by Newton’s 3rd law as regards the rearward ejection of mass.

That is how rocket thrust works. The continued expansion of gasses caused by burning high energy fuel builds up pressure but the pressure is always lower at the rear of the rocket motor due to the open nozzle. The higher pressure in the forward part of the motor maintains an imbalance of forces so the rocket continues to move as long as fuel is burned.

In addition to the above force there is also some thrust caused by rearward ejection of mass (the exhaust) in accordance with Newton’s 3rd Law.

BULLSHIT VS COMMON SENSE

COMMON SENSE :

I fear we are now arguing semantics instead of physics.

To save time, I will tell you how I interpret Newtons 3 Laws of Motion. If you disagree then there is no longer a reason to continue this thread as we differ on basic laws of physics which won’t be resolved here. If you agree with me, then there is much to discuss.

Let’s start with Newtons 3 Laws of Motion.

Fist Law: For an object to remain as it is, either moving or not, the sum of the forces on it are zero.
Sigma F = 0

Second Law: For a body to accelerate, there must be a force on it.
F = ma

Third Law: For every force in one direction, there is an equal force in the opposite direction.
F1 = – F2 or F1 + F2 = 0

Notice how all of Newtons Laws of Motion contain the term ‘force’. Newton used the term ‘force’ to explain how objects are pushed and pulled in our universe.

This is how I see Newtons 3rd Law applied to rockets flying through our atmosphere:

If a rocket is moving through the air at 17,000 mph in a southwesterly direction, then there must be a force in the northeasterly direction also going 17,000 mph, which is the force produced by the jet engine exhaust coming out of the back of the rocket.

The way you are explaining it, is that molecules hitting inside a chamber are moving the rocket forward, AND the rocket is moving forward. You did mention the perhaps the exhaust might move it forward also somewhat, but Newtons 3rd Law says the forward motion MUST be equal to the thrust only out the back because of the ‘opposite’ direction part of the law.

You can’t have two positive forces. F1 + F2 would then be greater than zero, and that defies Newtons 3rd Law. My point is the exhaust out the back is not the minor part, it is the major part of the force. Newtons 3rd law says it has to be.

4. Jack, have you ever seen this :

(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)
So you go and find the "As we shall see latter(sic), maximum thrust occurs when Pe=Pa" and find out what it means.

(https://i.postimg.cc/7L112934/HOW-HIGH-CAN-ROCKET-FLY.jpg)

Let's try once again :

1. When a rocket's combustion chamber is filled with accelerated gas opening the nozzle to expel the gasses into the vacuum of space does not generate a force against the ship. This is due to the principle of free expansion.

2. No amount of combustion or pressure inside the space ship can move the ship until that combustive force or pressure is exchanged with some object, entity, or field outside of the ship (a space ship is a closed system).

3. Based on 1 and 2 there is no way to move the ship by releasing gas and no way to move the ship by keeping the gas inside. A space ship cannot generate force with a gas based propulsion system. Space rockets are the stuff of fantasies not science or physics.

4. Any liquid exposed to a vacuum is immediately converted to gas and any gas is immediately spread out into the void. So any combustion would have to take place in a sealed container and hence not in a vacuum in the strict sense.

5. Contrary to known rocket's trajectories, they need to end up going seven miles per second away from the center of gravity (center of gravity = center of the earth)! (see reply #270)

Regarding the possibility of opening one side of a container, exposing it to the vacuum, while combusting gasses inside the container. In this case we have to consider that combustion can't occur anywhere near the opening because any liquids in that area are being instantly converted to gas by the vacuum and spread out into the void via free expansion. When combustion occurs at the far side of the container the force is going to push the remaining liquid out before it can be combusted. This seems like a terribly inefficient use of fuel as the combustion itself is forcing unspent fuel into space.

Another problem is that gas enters a vacuum at an average speed of about 2,000 meters a second. A 25 meter long Saturn 5 stage 2 fuel tank with over 1,000,000 liters of fuel would have it's contents drained in about 1/100 of a second if exposed to the vacuum of space.

Well, consider this: no honest scientists will deny that, when opening a valve between two containers (one containing air at high pressure - and the other only vacuum) the pressures in the two containers will equalize in a fraction of a second, the vacuum container 'sucking' the air to itself with tremendous, almost explosive force.

Imagine now the high pressure emitted by any rocket from its (always open) nozzle. As it enters the vacuum of outer space, the very same - almost explosively rapid - pressure equalization is bound to occur. The rocket will be emptied of all of its pressurized fuel in a flash - by the overwhelmingly superior power of the vacuum itself. No matter how powerful the rocket (propelled by any fuel known to man / and designed to perform in our 0,001 atmosphere) - the very laws of physics will not allow it to ascend any further into the void of space. It will haplessly tumble back to Earth.

In Summary
1. Without free expansion the rocket exhaust will push against space. And off we go!

2. Objects don't accelerate unless they exchange energy with some other object/field. There are no objects or fields in space (I regard them to be so small/weak as to be virtually non-existent).

Jack, have you ever seen this :

1. Why airplane and ship propellers work differently, but using the same operating principle (NEWTON'S THIRD LAW)?

It's easy to see why there's a difference if we go back to Newton's third law. The simplest way to think of a propeller is as a device that moves a vehicle forward by pushing air or water backward. The force on the backward-moving fluid is equal to the force on the forward-moving vehicle. Now force is also the rate at which something's momentum changes, so we can also see a propeller as a device that gives a ship or a plane forward momentum by giving air or water an equal amount of backward momentum. Sea water is about 1000 times more dense than air (at sea level), so you need to move much more air than water to produce a similar change in momentum.

PUSHING BACKWARD = PUSHING OFF OF

2. Action and reaction

When we talk about jet engines, we to tend think of rocket-like tubes that fire exhaust gas backward. Another basic bit of physics, Newton's third law of motion, tells us that as a jet engine's exhaust gas shoots back, the plane itself must move forward.

PUSHING BACKWARD = PUSHING OFF OF

3. Jet engine is just more efficient than propellers, but the principle of working is the same in both cases : NEWTON'S THIRD LAW!!!

However, if anybody thinks that there's an essential difference (regarding the principle of working) between jet engines and propellers then i would like to see what makes the core of that difference.

You see, we are supposed to believe that there is an essential difference regarding the principle of working between jet engines and propellers, however, such difference doesn't exist in reality.

According to official science, although NEWTON'S THIRD LAW is a common explanation for how propellers, jets, and rockets work, NASA claims that jet engine's principle of working is basically "recoil mechanism" (this is how they are preparing us for swallowing their next lie, which pertains rocket's principle of working)...

To acknowledge the existence of air drag in front of the rocket while, at the same time, deny the existence of the opposite air displacement exerted by the exhaust plume below it - is an utter contradiction in terms and a crude offense to common sense. If this were to be true (that "rockets do not push against air"), this would mean that the formidable, explosive thrust of a rocket's exhaust plume does not encounter any air resistance - a preposterous and outlandish contention, if there ever was one. Instead, as the NASA quackery goes, we are asked to believe that rockets are propelled solely by the "recoil force" generated by the rapid expulsion of fuel mass from rocket tanks. If this were true, we should all hover above our toilet seats when stricken with explosive diarrhea - yet I doubt that anyone has ever had the (mixed) fortune of experiencing such a thrill.
[/quote]

A rocket rising through the atmosphere will nicely proceed upwards in its escape from gravity - as long as certain conditions are maintained: the relative pressures at the rocket's nozzle and the outside atmosphere need to be as equal as possible, in order to obtain maximum 'mileage' / efficiency from the rocket's fuel.

- In fact, NASA clearly states that the optimal running conditions of their rockets occur only ONCE, at a certain unspecified (mid-range) altitude, when the above-mentioned pressures are identical. This, in perfect accordance with Newton's 3d law - what with its notion of "equal and opposite forces". Clearly, these rockets are designed to work best in our earthly atmosphere - and the atmospheric pressure IS in fact "the equal and opposite force" which the rocket thrust pushes against. To deny this fact is pure, outlandish and deceptive NASA hogwash-babble. Ironically, it is NASA itself that claims that their rockets work BEST when those two pressures are equal !

- Aerodynamic drag will of course be a factor in the equation, yet only a minor one - given the pencil-shaped, streamlined vessel. As the atmosphere pressure thins out with altitude, some more speed will probably be gained (out of a given power output) - but this fact would, obviously, have no incidence whatsoever in alleviating the forces needed for the weight of the rocket to escape the pull of gravity.

- Now, as we have previously seen, the atmospheric density range which our spacebound rocket is supposed to operate in, spans from a pressure of 0,001 (the average air density in our atmosphere) to a staggeringly inferior pressure of 0,000000000000000000000001 (the density of space vacuum). Thus, as the rocket climbs ever higher, it will have to exponentially increase its output/thrust (and, of course, its fuel consumption), in order to keep going - and combating the pull of gravity which, contrary to public belief, does NOT decrease exponentially with altitude.

- The rocket (at a given, high altitude which I cannot pretend to calculate precisely) will eventually be overpowered by the force of the exponentially decreasing outside pressure, its fuel being sucked out into the infinite 'vacuum of space' at stratospheric rate/speed - and faster than you can say "Houston-we-have-a-prob...---". Much like a champagne bottle popping its cork here on Earth (due to a minimal pressure difference), the rocket fuel will flush out with explosive force. Moreover, this force will expand in ALL directions (a bit like the diffused spray of your garden waterhose nozzle set on 'broad, soft mode') and provide little or no thrust. The rocket, from there on, will be doomed - and plunge back to Earth.

And for those willing to argue that NASA may have found a way to 'pinch' their rocket nozzles, so that the fuel doesn't get sucked out in a flash : well, you can always open a champagne bottle with great care, making the force inside it fizzle slowly out in the atmosphere. But such a subdued, impotent fizzle would hardly provide the necessary energy to propel a rocket away from Earth's gravity, would it?

Only a pinched fart would produce the same amount of 'power'(odor-power, in this case) as a vigorously expelled bowel-gas sample. We all know that much!

NASA denies that their rockets' propulsion has anything to do with any sort of interaction between their rockets' exhaust-thrust and air/atmosphere. Instead, they appeal to Newton's third law, saying that the exhausts of their rockets push on their own fuel/tank itself - and THAT is where and how the action/reaction occurs. They often compare this with the recoil of a bullet being fired by a shotgun. Of course, this is nonsense.


To attain the so-called escape velocity of 11km/s with "recoil power" only, this is what NASA's rockets would have to do: they'd have to shoot out from behind their rockets, all at once (like a bullet from a gun) a mass equal to the mass of the vessel itself - at a velocity of 11km/s. This means that, if this were to be the case (that rockets move due to "recoil action/reaction")- more than half of any rocket's fuel mass would have to be ejected at that speed - as illustrated in this diagram:

(https://i.postimg.cc/j5QkT9Rn/NEWTON-NASA-1.jpg)
(https://i.postimg.cc/g04ZPqfk/NEWTON-NASA-2.jpg)

Of course, this is not the case - and would be quite impossible to do. Yet, this is basically how NASA 'explains' how their spacecrafts are propelled through air and vacuum.

This is in perfect accord with the rocket thrust equation, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1), used by Robert Goddard, ROSCOSMOS, NASA and Spacex!

Quote from: cikljamas
This, in perfect accordance with Newton's 3d law - what with its notion of "equal and opposite forces".
While it is in "perfect accordance with Newton's 3d law" the difference between sea-level and vacuum thrust is simply the pressure force term, Ae(Pe - Po).
That "pressure force term" is clearly a maximum when the outside pressure, Po, is zero!
Heck, Rab, you are still too urban...
(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)
If what you (and NASA) are saying was true, then you (NASA's spokesman) and NASA would be able to logically (mathematically) justify what NASA claims (not me).
I'm not NASA's spokesman! They know nothing of me.
What NASA and I say is true and quite consistent and I demonstrated that with an example.

The maximum efficiency at a given at outside pressure is when the exhaust is equals to that pressure but the thrust penalty for departing from that is not very large.

Few engines are designed to adjust the exhaust to match the outside pressure, though there are a few.
And the Pratt & Whitney J58 jet engine, used in the Lockheed A-12, YF-12 and the SR-71 aircraft, was able to do this.

See below where the sea-level version of SpaceX Merlin 1D sea-level engine produces a vacuum thrust of 914 kN and the vacuum version 934 kN.

Don't confuse non-optimum efficiency with not working. These engines (like you car engine) still work quite well under non-optimal conditions.

Go back and read all that I wrote!

The thrust of a given rocket combustion chamber a nozzle has thrust given by the rocket thrust equation, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1).
And that clearly shows that the pressure force term, Ae(Pe - Po) is a maximum when the outside pressure, Po, is zero!

As I showed in the real life example of the SpaceX Merlin 1D sea-level engine:
This version with a comparatively small bell on the nozzle delivers a thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

SpaceX also produce a vacuum version of that  Merlin 1D engine:
This version with a bell on the nozzle as large as practical delivers a thrust of 934 kN (210,000 lbf) (in a vacuum).

The sea-level engine can be used all the way from sea level to space conditions but does not produce quite as much thrust in space conditions (914 kN) as the vacuum version (934 kN).

But the vacuum version cannot be used where there is significant air pressure because it can cause severe flame instability.
Not only that but SpaceX use 9 of the Merlin 1D engines in the first stage of the Falcon 9 and the vacuum engines would not fit.

The size of the nozzle bell used on the vacuum version limited by the diameter of the second stage of the Falcon 9 rocket.

Cikljamas - a vacuum does not suck out gas from a vessel.

The gas molecules all have their own velocity which causes them to eventually exit the vessel.

A vacuum just means there is nothing to prevent the gas molecules escaping.

Perhaps if you actually understood basic physics you might understand how rocket engines worked.

More pathetic BS.
Again, no where in that post did you even attempt to address the question.

Why are you avoiding it so much?
Why does this question terrify you so much you need to use whatever tactics you can to avoid it?

Is it because you know that answering it will show you have been lying for this entire thread?
Is it because you know that rockets do work in a vacuum?

Again:
How does the gas accelerate? What force is involved? What is the second body involved?
No need for any other BS, just answer the question.


I hope you understand how i feel about your ongoing copy paste avalanche.
I rarely copy and paste, and when I do, it is just copying a question I have posted here which has gone ignored, or when I directly quote something.
That is nothing like the copy-pasted BS jamas is spamming.
Now do you have anything other than these pathetic insults?

Perhaps you can answer the question?
Tell us how the gas accelerates? Or will you claim the gas is magically held inside on open container exposed to the vacuum of space?

It would be prudent to post the source of you material, which here was, Physics Stack Exchange: Why the exhaust pressure should be equal to ambient pressure? (https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/306140/why-the-exhaust-pressure-should-be-equal-to-ambient-pressure)
The form of that graph is similar to what I might expect but I can find no original source of the calculations that went into it.

An answer in that Physics Stack Exchange: Why the exhaust pressure should be equal to ambient pressure? had this expression for the exhaust velocity: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/hb02thmdsk39kc2/Rocket%20Thrust%20exit%20velocity%20vs%20%20exit%20pressure%20Equation.png?dl=1).
Where:
        ve is the exhaust velocity,
      "p1 is the chamber pressure,
       T1 is the chamber temperature,
       At At is the throat area, R is the specific gas constant for the burned products in the thrust chamber,
       γ is the ratio of specific heats of the burned products in the thrust chamber" and
       pe is the exhaust pressure.


Other than pe all the terms in that are either constants or things happening in the combustion chamber

We know that the thrust is given by: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1)
In near vacuum conditions pe will always be equal to or greater than po and so the pressure term part of the thrust is alway a positive component of the thrust.

Note that in the expression for the exhaust velocity the effect of exhaust pressure rapidly becomes negligible when the exhaust pressure, pe, is much less than the throat pressure, p1.

And that fits perfectly well with there being little penalty in having a low exhaust pressure but slill greater than the exhaust pressure.

Where is there anything in there that disagrees with anything I said?

I know that the optimum thrust does occur when the (exhaust pressure) equal to (outside pressure) but
I'm sick of saying and demonstrating that the penalty for having (exhaust pressure) slightly greater than (outside pressure) is not severe.

And every reference seems to agree with that and with rocket engines always performing better under vacuum conditions.

You know that the optimum thrust does occur when the exhaust pressure is equal to outside pressure but in the very next sentence you claim that rocket engines always perform better under vacuum conditions in which exhaust pressure is God only knows how much greater than outside pressure which is close to ZERO?????????????????

In other words :

Slight overexpansion causes a slight reduction in efficiency, but otherwise does little harm.
However, if the exit pressure is less than approximately 40 % that of ambient, then FLOW SEPARATION occurs. This can cause jet instabilities that can cause damage to the nozzle or simply cause control difficulties of the vehicle or the engine.

You see :
SITUATION No 1 (overexpansion)
Slight overexpansion = Little harm
When Pe is 40 % that of Pa = Very dangerous amount of overexpansion

Now, what happens on the other side of our "equation" (underexpansion)?
SITUATION No 2 (underexpansion)
Slight underexpansion = Little harm
When Pe is MANY, MANY TIMES greater than Pa = Rocket tumbles back to Earth

Now, compare these two situations, and try to use your brain finally!!!!
When i say "compare these two situations", i mean this :
Pay attention that on the first side of our "equation" we have 60 % difference between Pe and Pa, and on the
other side of our "equation" we have TRILLIONS AND TRILLIONS % difference between Pe and Pa!!!

I can only hope that in order to explain this conundrum you wont pull out of your ass some similarly idiotic explanation as you did in this situation (which Lo and Behold pertains exactly this very problem) :

LO AND BEHOLD :

Jack, Rabinoz, and co., all you have to do is to put Tom Bishop's argument (Escape Velocity a.k.a. Flight Direction : Strictly Away from the center of the Earth) in this particular perspective :
Rubbish! Your "particular perspective" is totally ludicrous as i show below,
Quote from: cikljamas
DANSITY TABLE :
(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)

As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

(Just to put all this into perspective, on the other side of the spectrum we see that a "black hole" - considered by scientists as the highest imaginable pressure known to mankind - is 10 ^+27. In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)
I am not answering all that in one go but first the total misoperation in you "density table". But why on earth do you use those funny cgs units and not SI units?

First of all your "density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> BLACK HOLES" is total garbage!
"Density differences" are quite irrelevant anyway. It is only "pressure differences" that matter though for gasses they are related.

And it appears that you missed out on arithmetic in school because the difference between two numbers say A and B is A - B and NOT A/B.

It appears that you do not know even the simplest rules of arithmetic!
So the difference between (air density) and the (density of free space)  is simply only 10-3 - 10-24 = 10-3 gm/cm3.


As far as a rocket's performance goes or the stresses involved in pressurising a crew habitat is make little difference if the pressure outside is one hundredth or one trillionth of normal atmospheric pressure.

And it makes you claim "In other words, one could say that the density gap/difference between VACUUM <vs> AIR is almost as large as the difference between WATER <vs> "BLACK HOLES". Food for thought, anyway.)" totally ludicrous!

But the density gap/difference between AIR vs VACUUM is just 1 while the density gap/difference between "BLACK HOLES" vs WATER is 1027 - not in the same "ball-park"!.

That doesn't have the emotional impact of your ridiculous and meaningless 1060, does it?

But you talk of densities rather misses the point! It is external pressure differences that slightly affect the thrust.

So, what our great mathematician Rabinoz is actually saying is this :

When you subtract 0,0001 from 1, you get 0,9999...Now, since 0,9999 is practically 1, then the difference between 0,0001 and 1 is 1, not 10000!!!

In an example above, according to our Einstein (Rabinoz) the difference between 10^-3 and 10^-24 is 10^-3 because we have to subtract 10^-24 from 10^-3 in order to get the difference... The difference (in literal meaning of this word "the difference") is 10^-3, indeed, but the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"

So, the real difference between our two numbers (between density of air and density of vacuum) is 10^21 a.k.a. sextillion a.k.a order of magnitude 21.

NASA is no match to our Einstein (Rabinoz)!!!

other side of our "equation" we have TRILLIONS AND TRILLIONS % difference between Pe and Pa!!!

No again! The "difference between Pe and Pa" is simply (Pe - Pa) NOT (Pe/Pa). Please learn the simplest rules of arithmetic!

Look at the Rocket thrust equation again: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1)

The only term involving pressures is Ae (pe - po) and (pe - po) is the difference in pressures  (as A - B) and not the ratio of pressures (as A/B) as you have used.

As an example, suppose we have a sea-level rocket engine which is 40% overloaded ay sea-level where the atmospheric pressure is roughly 100,000 Pa. The exhaust pressure, pe would then be about 60,000 Pa.

In the unattainable perfect vacuum conditions, the outside pressure, po , would be 0 Pa.

So the pressure thrust term would be Ae (60,000  - 0) Newtons!

And the thrust of that sea-level rocket engine is Ae (60,000  - 0) Newtons higher in space than at sea-level.

This is precisely in accord with the real case I quoted before:
As I showed in the real life example of the SpaceX Merlin 1D sea-level engine:
This version with a comparatively small bell on the nozzle delivers a thrust of 845 kN (190,000 lbf) at sea-level and 914 kN (205,000 lbf) in a vacuum.

SpaceX also produce a vacuum version of that  Merlin 1D engine:
This version with a bell on the nozzle as large as practical delivers a thrust of 934 kN (210,000 lbf) (in a vacuum).

The sea-level engine can be used all the way from sea level to space conditions but does not produce quite as much thrust in space conditions (914 kN) as the vacuum version (934 kN).

You only get your silly "trillions and trillions %" if you divide!

Didn't you do the simplest arithmetic and learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division?
That MINUS is meaningless, and the whole formula is meaningless, you still haven't figured this out?
When Pe = Pa then the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admit)!
So when Pe = 1, and Pa = 1, then (Pe-Pa) = (1-1) = (0)
It doesn't make any sense!
Why
Because, according to that formula the optimum thrust occurs when Pa = 0, not when Pe = Pa!!!
What this means?
This means that since the pressure in a vacuum (Pa) is very close to ZERO, then Pe (the exhaust pressure) should be also very close to ZERO, and this is the only way how you can get desired ratio 1 : 1, that is to say : Pe = Pa when the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admit)!!!
So, you have to use your common sense, instead of blindly staring in that fraudulent, misleading MINUS

What counts is this :
(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)jpg
(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)
As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

If what you (and NASA) are saying was true, then you (NASA's spokesman) and NASA would be able to logically (mathematically) justify what NASA claims (not me) :
Rocket will perform at optimal (100 %) efficiency at certain (X) altitude which is somewhere in between See Level (Over-Expansion) and High Altitudes (Under-Expansion)!!!
Pe = Pressure at nozzle exit is always the same (more or less)
Pa = Outside ambient pressure is constantly/progressively (one way) changing (inversely proportional) with altitude, that is to say : as the rocket climbs higher and higher, outside ambient pressure is dropping in an irreversible (one way) manner!!!

So, as Pa is constantly dropping between See Level and X (optimal) altitude, rocket efficiency is getting better and better, then after passing beyond that X (optimal) altitude, Pa is still irreversibly dropping, but now, rocket efficiency starts to decay, which shouldn't be the case if rocket efficiency is at maximum when the outside pressure, Po, is zero! You (and NASA) can't have your cake and eat it too!!!

So, what our great mathematician Rabinoz is actually saying is this :

When you subtract 0,0001 from 1, you get 0,9999...Now, since 0,9999 is practically 1, then the difference between 0,0001 and 1 is 1, not 10000!!!

In an example above, according to our Einstein (Rabinoz) the difference between 10^-3 and 10^-24 is 10^-3 because we have to subtract 10^-24 from 10^-3 in order to get the difference... The difference (in literal meaning of this word "the difference") is 10^-3, indeed, but the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"

So, the real difference between our two numbers (between density of air and density of vacuum) is 10^21 a.k.a. sextillion a.k.a order of magnitude 21.

NASA is no match to our Einstein (Rabinoz)!!!

America remembers 9/11 - one of the greatest bullshit stories ever told :
(https://i.postimg.cc/15jNS4jB/IN-BULLSHIT-WE-TRUST-XXX-1.jpg)



How about this bullshit story :
Not at all! "MANY, MANY TIMES greater than Pa" and the Rocket flies happily off into the great black yonder!
It can happen only in your wildest dreams!!!
Paper can withstand anything!!!

You can say and believe anything you want, but no sane person will ever buy any of countless stupidities that NASA, you and your alt (JackBlack) relentlessly spout regarding "rockets can fly in a vacuum of space" myth.
After all the time I took to carefully explain it to you!

Quote from: cikljamas
According to you, your alt (JackBlack),
If you claim that you are a liar pure and simple!
Quote from: cikljamas
and NASA, 40 % overexpansion is lethal for rocket's stable functioning, and trillions and trillions % underexpansion doesn't cause any instability in rocket's functioning (in a vacuum of space)!!!
There isn't any "trillions and trillions % underexpansion"! Can't you understand that it is the difference in pressures in both cases that matters! Look again at (pe MINUS po)!

You only get your silly "trillions and trillions %" if you divide!

Didn't you do the simplest arithmetic and learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division?
That MINUS is meaningless, and the whole formula is meaningless, you still haven't figured this out?
When Pe = Pa then the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admit)!
So when Pe = 1, and Pa = 1, then (Pe-Pa) = (1-1) = (0)
It doesn't make any sense!
Why
Because, according to that formula the optimum thrust occurs when Pa = 0, not when Pe = Pa!!!
What this means?
This means that since the pressure in a vacuum (Pa) is very close to ZERO, then Pe (the exhaust pressure) should be also very close to ZERO, and this is the only way how you can get desired ratio 1 : 1, that is to say : Pe = Pa when the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admit)!!!
So, you have to use your common sense, instead of blindly staring in that fraudulent, misleading MINUS

What counts is this :
(https://i.postimg.cc/MKF2Y0Vp/ROCKET-PROPULSION-X.jpg)jpg
(https://i.postimg.cc/q795wjY5/DENSITY-TABLE.jpg)
As you can readily see, the two densities that NASA's rockets supposedly traverse as they rise up to the skies are hugely different.

If what you (and NASA) are saying was true, then you (NASA's spokesman) and NASA would be able to logically (mathematically) justify what NASA claims (not me) :
Rocket will perform at optimal (100 %) efficiency at certain (X) altitude which is somewhere in between See Level (Over-Expansion) and High Altitudes (Under-Expansion)!!!
Pe = Pressure at nozzle exit is always the same (more or less)
Pa = Outside ambient pressure is constantly/progressively (one way) changing (inversely proportional) with altitude, that is to say : as the rocket climbs higher and higher, outside ambient pressure is dropping in an irreversible (one way) manner!!!
(https://i.postimg.cc/3NnZMrbC/ROCKET-FORMULA-X.jpg)
So, as Pa is constantly dropping between See Level and X (optimal) altitude, rocket efficiency is getting better and better, then after passing beyond that X (optimal) altitude, Pa is still irreversibly dropping, but now, rocket efficiency starts to decay, which shouldn't be the case if rocket efficiency is at maximum when the outside pressure, Po, is zero!

Hey cikljamas.  Why are you so obsessed with the rocket thrust equation under vacuum conditions?  Have you tried plugging in some values to the equation to see the effects of ambient pressure on overall thrust?  Well, here's a link to a calculator that will do all the math for you, you just need to plug in the numbers.  Try ambient pressure at 1 atmosphere then again at a vacuum and see how much the performance is affected.  Spoiler alert: the difference isn't as much as you probably think it should be.

No, that isn't how. That is just a crappy image.

Again, we know the gas has mass. That means it needs a force. That means there must be an interaction with a second body. That means the second body (the rocket in this case) needs to have a force applied to it. That means rockets do work in a vacuum.

Do you agree?
If not, tell us how the gas accelerates, making sure you identify the force and other body involved.

Yes, I figured it out long ago!
If you think that "the whole formula is meaningless" then please show YOUR DERIVATION of the rocket thrust.

If you cannot do that then you've lost the debate!

Quote from: cikljamas
When Pe = Pa then the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admit)!
So when Pe = 1, and Pa = 1, then (Pe-Pa) = (1-1) = (0)
It doesn't make any sense!
No, it makes perfect sense!
Open your eyes and LOOK again at the rocket thrust equation:
                         (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1)
If you cannot understand something as simple as that then you simply should not be here debating "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum"!

The second term is Ae(pe - po) and whether you like it or not that is correct.

So, "When Pe = Pa then the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admithave stated many times)! So when Pe = 1, and Pa = 1, then (Pe-Pa) = (1-1) = (0)"

Exactly as it should because all the thrust then comes from the rate of change of momentum term, (mass flow rate) x (exhaust velocity).
And that condition is shown to optimise the thrust!

Quote from: cikljamas
Why
Because, according to that formula the optimum thrust occurs when Pa = 0, not when Pe = Pa!!!
It means nothing of the sort! The optimum thrust (but not necessarily the best to aim for) is when Pe = Pa, which might be at Pa = 0.

Quote from: cikljamas
What this means?
This means that since the pressure in a vacuum (Pa) is very close to ZERO, then Pe (the exhaust pressure) should be also very close to ZERO, and this is the only way how you can get desired ratio 1 : 1, that is to say : Pe = Pa when the optimum thrust does occur (as you and NASA admit)!!!
Exactly because it is the whole expression for the rocket thrust, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1) that is being optimised not just the pressure thrust term.
Quote from: cikljamas
So, you have to use your common sense, instead of blindly staring in that fraudulent, misleading MINUS.

No, the minus sign is perfectly correct and a rocket would notice little difference between the atmospheric pressure of 3.2×10−2 Pa at the Karman Line and 1.3 × 10−11 Pa.

Which makes the rest of your pure fiction totally redundant so I'll delete it!

Quote from: cikljamas

In an example above, according to our Einstein (Rabinoz) the difference between 10^-3 and 10^-24 is 10^-3
Exactly because it is the pressure difference, Ae(pe - po), in the rocket thrust equation.

And in the simplest of arithmetic, DIFFERENCE means SUBTRACTION and NOT DIVISION as you try to deceive us with!

Quote from: cikljamas
because we have to subtract 10^-24 from 10^-3 in order to get the difference... The difference (in literal meaning of this word "the difference") is 10^-3, indeed,
It surely is!

Quote from: cikljamas
but the real question is whether we are interested here in a literal meaning of the word "difference" or are we interested in "for how much (times) one of our numbers (10^-3) is greater than another number (10^-24)?"
And we are interested in the DIFFERENCE for the simple reason that Ae(pe - po) involves the DIFFERENCE and NOT the RATION.

Quote from: cikljamas
So, the real difference between our two numbers (between density of air and density of vacuum) is 10^21 a.k.a. sextillion a.k.a order of magnitude 21.

No, the REAL difference between sea-level atmospheric pressure (101.3 kPa) and outer space pressure (1.322 × 10−11 Pa) is simply 101.3 kPa.

Enough of this crap.

The rocket thrust formula is applicable ONLY to conventional NORMAL EXHAUST.

FOR A RING SHAPED EXHAUST, the rocket thrust formula is useless and inapplicable.

The ring shaped exhaust is the most advanced design in existence for rockets, much higher than the normal exhaust configuration.

The rocket relies then on the torsion field of zero point energy for the thrust.

Here are the complete details:

But, I do appreciate your acknowledgement that (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7ice3pw4egizz/Rocket%20Thrust%20Equation.png?dl=1) is the correct thrust equation for "conventional rocket designs".

Enough of this crap.
Yes, enough of this crap.

A nice simple scenario:
You have a gas tank in a vacuum.
It is pressurised to some high pressure.
You then remove the bottom of it, so in that instant you have highly pressurised gas exposed to the vacuum of space.

What happens?
Does the gas magically remains inside even though it is directly exposed to vacuum?
Or does the gas leave the tank, requiring an acceleration?

If the former, HOW?
If the latter, then we have another question, how does it accelerate?
Does it magically defy the laws of motion and magically accelerate without any application of force?
Or does it obey the laws of motion and require a force to be applied to accelerate?

If the former, why can't the rocket?
Is the latter, then we have another question, 2 actually? First, where does the force come from? But second, which I will expand upon, how does this force behave?
Does it magically defy the laws of motion and exist as a force without a corresponding reactionary force?
Or does it obey the laws of motion and require an equal but opposite force to exist as well and apply to a second body?

If the former, then again, why can't the rocket?
If the latter, then what is the second body and second force?
The only option available is that the force acts on the rocket.
But that means that the rocket will have a force applied and thus will work in a vacuum.

The ring shaped exhaust rocket CANNOT function in pure vacuum (without even scalar waves, ether).

There is no pure vacuum even right under the dome and right above it: you still have the ether waves travelling through the vacuum with no problems at all.

But what has that to do with the topic, "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum"?
Plus Sibrel admitted in court that he was going to call the astronauts liars whether they swore or not and he doesn't like to show you the videos he took of those that did swear on the Bible. Why should anyone cooperate with someone like that?

The ring shaped exhaust rocket CANNOT function in pure vacuum (without even scalar waves, ether).

A proven fact.

I take that is proven by your Romanian book, is that the case? Or are there any documents on the subject outside of Romania?

I don't care about your ring shaped exhaust, nor do I care about a perfect vacuum.
Instead I care about the rockets are being used currently, and the real vacuum of space.

Now, can you admit that they do work, and if not can you tell us how the gas accelerates?

If you've just read Rabinoz' attempt of refutation of what i had presented (pointing out convoluted logic ingrained in that rocket formula) in the first post on this very page, take my advise very seriously : Make instantly an appointment with your shrink and go check how seriously your brain has been damaged.
Admit it, Mr Cikljamas, you have never shown where I am wrong, have you?

But, to be honest, Rabinoz and JackBlack are one of those who are going to buy whatever they are told, no doubts about that...
No, if you could be honest for once, Mr Cikljamas, you have to admit that I justified every claim that I made and the only refutation you can come up with is ridicule and personal attack!

That is nothing more than the sign of a poor ignorant loser.

If you really had an honest case:

Let me explain to everyone how a ring shaped exhaust functions.

(https://image.ibb.co/bvnOiy/bu2_zpsth1zkuqo.jpg)

The gases will be expelled at a very high speed through the specially designed nozzle design, at least 3.5 Mach.

The gases will then block not only air but ALSO the ether waves (telluric currents). It will form a VACUUM CHAMBER, which then will immediately be filled with ether, in the form of a TORSION FIELD.

(https://image.ibb.co/fiB5wJ/bu3_zpsegov8qiz.jpg)

This torsion field will act as an antigravitational force which provides the necessary thrust.

So, in a pure vacuum chamber, with no ether waves, it could not function at all.

This much is known at this time regarding this fantastic design, much more advanced than the conventional nozzle models.

Relevant drivel is emboldened and underlined...

If there is an 'antigravitational force', the force must be directed in some direction and in opposition to (hence the 'anti') to some gravitational source. So a rocket can apparently only thrust in specified directions, in opposition to a gravitational source...

No, lets first deal with normal rockets.
Then once you have either managed to disprove them working in a vacuum or accepted that they do, we can move on to specific designs.

So I ask again:
How does the gas accelerate?

If you cannot answer that all sane people will be concluding that rockets do work in a vacuum.

So what?
With Mach 1 at sea-level being 340.29 m/s that Mach 3.5 is only 1191m/s.

LH2/LOX fueled rocket engines, used for decades, have exhaust velocities of up to 4450 m/s!

Even the SpaceX Raptor CH4/LOX engine has an equivalent exhaust velocity of over 3,700 m/s.

And the RP1/LOX fueled Rocketdyne F-1 engines of the Saturn V used to launch Apollo 11 had an  exhaust velocity of almost 2600 m/s!

Please get up to date on "modern" rocket engine technology.

So, the exhaust gets pushed by the rocket only after it reaches full speed at the moment of exiting the nozzle?
Then what accelerates it inside to reach that speed?
And on what the accelerated gas exerts its reaction force while it's still inside?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In vacuum:
When the first quantity of the exhaust exits the rocket it is denser than the Earth's atmosphere.
Are you saying that the next layer of the exhaust can't push off the previous layer?

We all live in sandokhan's show or Qui Bono (to whom is it a benefit?) Only if continued empirical tests contradicted the theory could the theory be modified, or dropped entirely if a new theory was proposed in its place.

Turtles All The Way Down

However, from at least the 6th century BCE, the theory of the flat Earth began to fall out of favour. By the time we get to Aristotle in the 4th century BCE, the idea of a spherical Earth is commonplace, at least among the educated classes. And by the 1st Century BCE it is considered an uncontroversial truth. Having said that, the theory of a flat Earth has continued as a minor tradition in thought, like a handful of theories in science, such as Lamarckianism and vitalism.

But, if the flat Earth serves as a kind of myth or fantasy for those who believe in it, there are also myths about the flat Earth that are just as widespread.

One of the most widely propagated myths in the contemporary world is the belief that Columbus was advised by the Catholic Church to abandon his journey on the basis that he risked falling off the edge of the world.

‘The Principle’ Tells the ‘Most Interesting Detective Story in History’ That Scientists Want Concealed

Rick DeLano, producer and writer of the documentary film “The Principle,” talked about his film with SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon on Wednesday’s edition of Breitbart News Daily.

“In this time of political almost-revolution, why should somebody take time to watch your documentary, which is going to potentially change their entire view of the universe?” Bannon asked, posing what many philosophers would argue is a question that answers itself.

“You’re right, this is the whole ball of wax, let’s face it,” DeLano replied. “Until about 500 years ago, everybody in the world looked up and saw the Sun going across the sky and figured that’s what was actually happening. And, of course, Copernicus came along and said, no, that’s an illusion — we’re spinning around our axis once a day and going around the Sun once a year.”

“That smoothed out so many strange things that it was universally adopted,” DeLano said. “It’s one of the most fascinating things in the world, how we all had our view of reality completely inverted from the ancient view of us being the center and focus of the universe.”

“Now, what’s really interesting — it’s ironic, in a way — we finally get to the point where we can build sensors, look out and see the absolute furthest stretches of this incredible universe of ours, and what we see — it’s almost comical. We see that on its very largest scales, this universe seems to be constructed in such a way that the whole darn thing, on its largest scales, is picking out a special direction — and it happens to be us!” he exclaimed.

This should be a completely random residue, of course, of the Big Bang. Instead, what we see is, the darn thing is completely counter-predicted. It’s not random. It picks out a special direction. It’s very planar. And, across the entire universe, it picks out a special direction.

There’s not supposed to be one. There’s supposed to be no up, no down, no left, no right, no special directions, no special locations — but there are. There is a special direction across the entire universe. The physicists have been calling it the ‘Axis of Evil,’ which is a unique and interesting name. But this Axis of Evil shouldn’t be there, and it is.

It is pointing out a special direction, and it is related to us. Our supposedly insignificant, tiny pale blue dot Earth seems to be a focus — well, the way that Lawrence Krauss puts it in the film is that, you know, if these observations were true, he said at the time, this would mean that the entire universe is arranged around us.

“What we know now is that it is true. We can disagree about what this might mean, but there’s really no longer any grounds to disagree about the fact that it’s there. It is there,” DeLano asserted.

“It’s being actively suppressed,” said DeLano. “And that shouldn’t surprise you at all. If you watch the film, you’ll see that Michio Kaku, very famous cosmologist, states right into the camera that the dark matter issue was swept under the rug for 70 years. For 70 years they knew that the galaxies weren’t spinning according to the laws of gravity. That was kept completely hidden for 70 years, until they came up with an explanation that they could run with, which they now call ‘dark matter.’ This is much bigger than that. This drops that to complete insignificance.” 

“You’re gonna tell your kids one of two stories, because there are only two,” DeLano said of his movie’s significance to the common man. “The first one says that we’re an insignificant pale blue dot, that we’re the outcome of random physical processes, that we are absolutely nothing special — that there is absolutely nothing special about us or our location.”

“The other story is one that everybody in the world believed, up until Copernicus came along, which is that we are the actual focus and center of the entire creation,” he continued. “The fact that we have all gone from one to the other, over the past 500 years, is the most interesting detective story in history.

I do not expect much to be honest, but i’d like you to improve, because i like a good laugh and also a good amount of self-mockery. But your attempts to ridicule are a bit underwhelming.... you can surely do better !!

Remember all those Apollo topics where i complained about the flawless operation of hardily tested moon equipment... (certainly not on the moon itself) ?
‘Our scientists took care of this and that’ ‘calculated and simulated this and that ‘....therefor everything worked as expected.

Now to skyscrapers...... first thing they take into consideration is the structural solidity.
Fires of all kind are included... heck the twin towers were designed to withstand two airplaines hitting one of the towers.It’s in the official twintower documents/blueprints .....
And ‘everyone and his aunt’ knows what it takes to built a proper skyscraper ( contrary to moon machinery).....
And i have to believe that WTC-7 collapsed due to office fires ?
Never happened anywhere and it was designed and built to easily deal with fires of any kind.

But in your reality a skyscraper can collapse due to an office fire and moonmachines are working flawlessly without ever being tested on the moon itself.
In my reality no skyscraper will collapse due to office fires and untested moon machinery will have a high probabilty of failure in unknown circomstances.

But whatever makes you happy ...... certainly being part of our native forums is one of it.

Of  course,  Tomb  and  Cheney’s  admission  also  means  the  US  has   no   hard   evidence   that   “nineteen   Muslims”   piloted   and   crashed  four  US  planes;  except,  perhaps  for  the  passport  of  Mohammed  Atta  that  just  happen  to  survive  the  crash  into  the  Twin  Towers  and  flutter  unmolested  onto  the  street  below.  But  in that case Mr. Bollyn would be glad to offer you his options in Florida  swamp  land.  Later  the  report  on  Atta’s  passport  was  revised  to  say  that  it  actually  belonged  to  another  hijacker  of  Flight  11,  Satan  al  Suqami.  Incidentally,  the  Atta  passport  was  first  presented  as  evidence  to  Mayor  Giuliani  by  his  police  commissioner, Bernard Kerik, who has a notorious past and who is  presently  in  jail  for  various  crimes.  Moreover,  when  Giuliani  was  presented  with  the  questions  at  a  press  conference  of  explosions  at  WTC,  he  turned  to  Kerik  who  simply  shook  his  head  and  said  “no.”  This  was  the  first  “official”  answer  to  the  question  that  would  never  go  away.  Additionally,  the  US  presented  videos  of  bin  Laden  supposedly  taking  responsibility  and/or   being   delighted   for   the   911   attacks.   It   was   later   discovered   that   the   videos,   which   were   obviously   fakes,   originated  from  ex-Israeli  Occupation  Forces  (IOF)  soldier  Rita  Katz through her SITE Institute.

Only Aired Once About PENTAGON :

This  video  was  only  aired  once  on  television  and  never  seen  again.  Whatever debris there was, the FBI and many unidentified people were out on  the  Pentagon  lawn  combing  the  ground  for  something,  walking  back  and forth. But this was a crime scene.

Have you ever heard about  the  four-part  FOX  news  story  by  Carl  Cameron,  accompanied  by  Brit  Hume  and  Tony Snow, on its details to know that Bollyn is following the leads where they go. The FBI and other US government agencies told Cameron that Israelis were  involved  in  911,  but  that  the  information  was  “classified.”  One  can  view  these  videos  at  several  places  on  the  Internet. The  intrigue  is  only  heightened by the fact that FOX pulled the series shortly after unidentified Zionist groups asked for its removal in 2001. Not only did FOX obey, as if following some Orwellian prophecy, it also removed the written transcripts and in its place put “This story no longer exists.” Here are some gripping excerpts from the series :

Federal  officials  this  year  have  arrested  or  detained  nearly   200   Israeli   citizens   suspected   of   belonging   to   an   “organized     intelligence-gathering     operation.”     The     Bush     administration  has  deported  most  of  those  arrested  after  Sept.  11...The  suspects:  Israeli  organized  crime  with  operations  in  New  York,  Miami,  Las  Vegas,  Canada,  Israel  and  Egypt...The  problem:  according  to  classified  law  enforcement  documents  obtained by Fox News, the bad guys had the cops’ beepers, cell phones, even home phones under surveillance. Some who did get caught  admitted  to  having  hundreds  of  numbers  and  using  them  to   avoid   arrest...Asked   this   week   about   another   sprawling   investigation  and  the  detention  of  60  Israelis  since  Sept.  11,  the  Bush     administration     treated     the     questions     like     hot     potatoes...Beyond  the  60  apprehended  or  detained,  and  many  deported since Sept. 11, another group of 140 Israeli individuals have been arrested and detained in this year in what government documents   describe   as   “an   organized   intelligence   gathering   operation,”  designed  to  “penetrate  government  facilities.”  Most  of   those   individuals   said   they   had   served   in   the   Israeli   military...But   they   also   had,   most   of   them,   intelligence   expertise,  and  either  worked  for  Amdocs  or  other  companies  in  Israel    that    specialize    in    wiretapping....Well,    there’s    real    pandemonium described at the FBI, the DEA and the INS. A lot of  these  problems  have  been  well  known  to  some  investigators,  many   of   who   have   contributed   to   the   reporting   on   this   story...They  want  to  find  out  how  it  is  all  this  has  come  out,  as  well as be very careful because of the explosive nature and very political  ramifications  of  the  story  itself  –  Tony.  SNOW:    All  right, Carl, thanks.

A third van was found on King St. between 6th and 7th which the Israelis  fled  after  they  blew  it  up.  It  was  later  found  that  the  moving  company, Urban Moving Systems (UMS), was a Mossad front and that the Kurzburg  brothers,  Paul  and  Sivan,  were  the  two  Mossad  agents.  The  entire police communication was recorded and is available on the Internet. One  of  the  police  officers  describes  one  of  the  vans  having  a  mural  of  a  plane  hitting  the  Twin  Towers.  Dominic  Suter,  another  Mossad  agent  and the registered owner of UMS, was allowed to flee to Israel by the FBI on Sept. 14, 2001, just three days after the attacks.

Dr.  Alan  Sabrosky,  Director  of  Strategic  Studies  at  the  US  Army  War  College says: “It is 100 percent certain that 9-11 was a Mossad operation. Period.”  General  Hamid  Gul,  former  Pakistan  intelligence  chief,  agrees:  “It was a Zionist/Neo Con conspiracy. It was an inside job. They wanted to go  on  world  conquest,  looking  at  it  as  an  opportunity  window  when  the  Muslim  world  was  lying  prostrate;  Russia  was  nowhere  in  sight;  China  was  still  not  an  economic  giant  that  it  has  turned  out  to  be.  And  they  thought  this  was  a  good  time  to  fill  those  strategic  areas  which  are  still  lying without any American presence; and of course to control the energy tap of the world. Presently it is the Middle East and in the future it is going to be central Asia.” Francesco Cossiga, former Italian president, is of the same opinion, telling Italy’s most respected newspaper that the attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad:  “all  the  [intelligence  services]  of  America  and  Europe  ...  now  know  well  that  the  disastrous  attack  has  been  planned  and  realized  from  the  CIA  American  and  the  Mossad  with  the  aid  of  the  Zionist  world  in  order to put under accusation the Arabic Countries and in order to induce the  western  powers  to  take  part  ...  in  Iraq  [and]  Afghanistan.”

As  for  the  odd  Israeli  reaction  to  9/11,  Benjamin  Netanyahu  himself  admitted in an off guard moment: “We are benefiting from one thing, and that  is  the  attack  on  the  Twin  Towers  and  Pentagon,  and  the  American  struggle  in  Iraq...these  events  swung  American  public  opinion  in  our  favor.” The day after, Netanyahu uttered an even more audacious remark on the 9/11 attacks, saying: “It’s very good.” Realizing the implications, he caught   himself   and   said,   “Well,   it’s   not   good,   but   it   will   generate   immediate sympathy.” Similar to Netanyahu’s capitalizing on 9/11, Ehud Barak,   which   Bollyn   says   “is   suspected   of   being   one   of   the   real   masterminds  of  9/11,”  did  much  the  same  since  “within  minutes  of  the  explosive  demolitions  of  the  Twin  Towers  on  9/11,  the  Israeli  politician  and  military  leader  Ehud  Barak  was  in  the  London  studio  of  the  BBC”  and  “before  any  evidence  of  culpability  was  found,  Barak  called  for  a  ‘War on Terror’ and US military intervention in Afghanistan,” which is a “textbook  example  of  how  false-flag  terrorism  is  supposed  to  work.  The  perpetrator  is  the  first  one  to  assign  blame...which  is  the  real  purpose  of  such atrocities.”

Everyone is an expert.
No silly...not everyone  ::) but this guy was.

Danny Jowenko.....i watched it on dutch tv when almost no American heard about building nr. 7 and it's sudden collapse.
Danny was a worldleading demolition expert who (as the vid shows) boldly claimed it was a demolition without knowing what ''collapse''  footage was presented.


It is hard to find the original content of the full dutch tv program, but he simply dismisses any other option than a pre-orchestrated demolition.
I started to doubt the official narritive from that moment....

There is already a current thread on wtc 7.

he is talking about the direct ascent method of getting to the Moon and back which was first considered.

They ended up using the lunar orbit rendezvous method instead which requires a far smaller rocket.

That's what happens now with the ISS and I presume that you do note the resupply missions flown by the USA,  SpaceX, Arianespace, ROSCOSMOS and JAVA.

At present only ROSCOSMOS fly crew changeover missions.

This is really quite irrelevant because Wernher Von Braun was planning a single massive spacecraft to fly to the moon and return.
At time and even after the Lunar missions were announced the US had not rendezvoused and docked in space.

Nevertheless, rather than Wernher Von Braun's single massive spaceship NASA decided to use the Saturn/Apollo/Lunar Lander approach that needed a far lower, though still massive, launch vehicle.

The Gemini flights were practice for rendezvous and docking in space then before Apollo 11 earlier Apollo flights provided practice with the CM and LM.

Surely you must know this know this, so why do you keep presenting Wernher Von Braun's totally impractical spaceship?

If your brain were not seriously damaged you wouldn't avoid answering these three simple questions :

1. Who have been ridiculed in three videos above???
A) Flat-earthers
B) Round-earthers

2. Rabinoz is

3. Can you rationally refute/dispute logical consistency/validity (and benevolence) of what has been tried to convey to you with the following sentence :

I don’t remember seeing Sick Llamas in the past, but he does appear a true paladin of FE.

New research by Josh Hart, associate professor of psychology, suggests that people with certain personality traits and cognitive styles are more likely to believe in conspiracy theories. The research was recently published in the Journal of Individual Differences.

"These people tend to be more suspicious, untrusting, eccentric, needing to feel special, with a tendency to regard the world as an inherently dangerous place," Hart said. "They are also more likely to detect meaningful patterns where they might not exist.

I've seen no credible evidence from you, other that your use of deceptive "PhotoShopped" images, against the truth of the lunar landings.

Your apparent need to use obvious deception implies that even you aren't convinced you have a case!

Why so many scumbags like you play dumb regarding this important fact? Because they have very important agenda which is a special mission a.k.a. sinister plot a.k.a. very, very real conspiracy.

Flat-earth stupidity revival was orchestrated by NASA guys.

Give me the name of one (JUST ONE) prominent scientist (or well educated person) who lived in last 2 500 years or even christian theologian who ever lived (in last 2 000 years) on this earth who claimed that the earth is flat!!! JUST ONE NAME, can you do that??? The earth is motionless and in the center of the universe, but the earth isn't flat for God sake, what is wrong with you people? How about this (simple challenge) : If the earth were flat, then the flat earth map SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY EASY to make. Many have tried already, and all of them terribly failed. How hard is to infer (correctly) why no one can draw functional flat earth map WITH ABSOLUTE EASINESS on the flat sheet of paper??? If the earth is flat and flat sheet of paper is also flat all you have to do (to deal with) is to scale down the real face of the earth, isn't that so??? So, why don't you try to draw functional flat earth map? Why??? I'll tell you why : because it is absolutely impossible, that's why!

They organized it in a way that was going to produce the desired result : whenever someone mentions something about NASA fraudulent missions, or about the heliocentric hoax (which is a grandaddy of all deceptions in today's world) or about "evolution theory" hoax, or about Big-Bang idiocy, or about 9/11 inside job, or about NWO agenda, or about Kennedy assassination (which was an inside job, also), etc..., they instantly pull out from their asses "flat earth stupidity" saying : you see there is no essential difference between these guys (geocentrists-real truth seekers) and those who believe that the earth is flat (they instantly assign flat-earth label to all of them/us, in order to discredit every voice of reason in today's fucked up world)...

Give me the name of one (JUST ONE) prominent scientist (or well educated person) who lived in last 2 500 years or even christian theologian who ever lived (in last 2 000 years) on this earth who claimed that the earth is flat!!! JUST ONE NAME, can you do that??? The earth is motionless and in the center of the universe, but the earth isn't flat for God sake, what is wrong with you people? How about this (simple challenge) : If the earth were flat, then the flat earth map SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY EASY to make. Many have tried already, and all of them terribly failed. How hard is to infer (correctly) why no one can draw functional flat earth map WITH ABSOLUTE EASINESS on the flat sheet of paper??? If the earth is flat and flat sheet of paper is also flat all you have to do (to deal with) is to scale down the real face of the earth, isn't that so??? So, why don't you try to draw functional flat earth map? Why??? I'll tell you why : because it is absolutely impossible, that's why!

Ever tried looking in a mirror to see what someone whose brain is damaged beyond repair really looks like?

Don't bother replying unless you are prepared to have a rational debate on the topic, "Rockets can't fly in a vacuum".
If you want to discuss other topics make suitable threads to cover those topics.

Yeah yeah, everything is a conspiracy, everything is a lie, everyone is lying to you, and NASA is misappropriating billions of dollars, but that doesn't matter because dollars are controlled by zionist bankers, but that doesn't matter because reality is a hologram matrix, etc.

Nevertheless, the exhaust of a rocket, it's being accelerated, right?  It's accelerated away from the direction the rocket is headed, agreed?  The exhaust is a mass, so accelerating it requires a force, as we seem to agree on f=ma.  So, to what is the equal and opposite applied?

On a serious note..... can you explain the following ?
Our modern times have shown how corrupt the financial system was/is by creating financial products to deceive and only in the interrest of some.
Whole countries were on the brink of collapse (Greece)
I don’t have to explain to you about how corrupt politicians are when it suits their agenda
You also must have heard about the whole ‘me too’ affair showing that sexual abuse is everywhere and much more prominent than we’d often like to realise.
From the church to Hollywood, sports and Royals and everything in between.
And of course the rotten apples in charity.... even up to the point that charity personell raped locals in disaster areas .(Oxfam Novib)
Shell and the surpression of the locals in Nigeria by using force, violence and intimidation.
Most big leading companies and organisations have also some history of deceit and bad behaviour when examining their past and present.

I could go on and on forever to show you how rotten this world CAN be at times.

But for some unknown reason NASA is without blemish for over half a century.
NASA never claimed an event that took not place or exagerated any of their accomplishments in space.
All NASA outlets spoke nothing but the truth about all space related topics.
All money was well spend and nothing was stolen from anyone.
All discoveries were shared with the taxpayers and nothing was hidden from the general public....like ufo’s and other crincheworthy stuff.
All that was lost and/or destroyed was negligence at worst but never evil intentions to cover up.
The promised moonbase and trips to the moon for civilians are put on hold by unwilling  congressmen .... not the lacking abilities at NASA that have been put to sleep through the lacking fundings.

Fun factor is that NASA and their idiotic fanbase must keep the holiness of NASA compared to any other company or organisation in the total history of mankind in place.....
They know once a single card is going to fall the house of cards will follow.

So no.... NASA never lied, stole, made up, exagerated anything..... otherwise the Russians, HAM amatures , FOX and god knows who.... would have surely called it a day.

Well every topic about contradicatory statements from astronauts, destroyed telemetry data, cocaine use on the workfloor, altered(enhanced) footage and audio recordings from space missions, newly created footage in the nineties from supposed earlier events, destroyed technologies involving the blueprints of moon vehicles are all dismissed in all cases.

Of course the NASA supporters believe NASA is without blemish.... i surely cannot think of anything the NASA supporters know has been deceitfull from NASA.
To the contrary.... i have never heard any argument whatsoever from NASA supporters that indicate NASA did fake, lie or stole anything worth mentioning.

That makes NASA the ONLY institute/company/organisation in the history of mankind with an almost perfect track record.
Hell even the Red Cross can only dream of such a perfect history in which 'to serve the progress of mankind' is the only interrest.
But NASA supporters are a bit like 'Michael Jackson' supporters..... you simply can't discuss the supposed wrongdoings..... because no wrongdoings were committed ever.

What the notoriously corrupt United States federal government is claiming is to have sent men to the moon in 1969, on the VERY FIRST attempt, even though right here on earth Mt. Everest and the South Pole took NUMEROUS tries before success, allegedly accomplishing this amazing feat with 50 YEAR older technology (a cell phone has ONE MILLION times more computing power than ALL of NASA did in 1969), yet 50 YEARS later NASA can now only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon, even with 5 DECADES more advancements in rockets and computers.

If Toyota claimed they made a car 50 YEARS ago that could travel 50,000 miles on one gallon of gasoline, yet today their best car can only go 50 miles per gallon, or ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance, would not the forgery of the previous claim be incredibly obvious? If it were not for people's pride and emotional attachment to the 50 YEAR OLD unrepeatable moon landing claim, also with only ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance capable 5 DECADES later, they would otherwise easily recognize this equally preposterous claim as the fraud that it sadly is.

The alleged moon landings are the only technological claim in the entire history of the world, such as the first automobile, airplane, or nuclear power, which was not far surpassed in capability 50 YEARS later, much less not even able to be duplicated by any nation on earth 50 YEARS later. The supposed moon landings are also the only time in history that such claimed expensive technology was deliberately destroyed afterwards (175 BILLION DOLLARS worth), only done so to hide the evidence of the fraud.

Seeing how it is IMPOSSIBLE for technology to go BACKWARDS and today NASA can only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon as was claimed 50 YEARS ago on the VERY FIRST attempt with 5 DECADES OLDER technology, the only remaining conclusion is that the 1969 claim was a federal government lie. It is that simple and that corrupt.

Vladimir Markin, a former spokesman for the government's official Investigative Committee, said the committee had called for an inquiry to find out what happened to the original footage of the first moon landing in 1969 and also lunar rock, brought back to Earth during the several "missions".

He said: "We are not contending that they did not fly [to the moon], and simply made a film about it. But all of these scientific — or perhaps cultural — artefacts are part of the legacy of humanity, and their disappearance without a trace is our common loss. An investigation will reveal what happened."

In 2009, NASA said it "erased" the original video recordings of the first moon landing among 200,000 other tapes in order to save money. LOL

It has since said restored copies of the landing had been put together using recordings from news footage at the time. LOL

NASA claims because of restoration work undertaken during this, the recordings' quality is better than the original which is no longer available. LOL

In 2001 David McKay, chief scientist for planetary science and exploration at NASA's Johnson Space Center, said most of the soil and rock removed from the Moon was stored there, but is is unclear where it all is now, 46 years on. LOL

Hurtling 27600 km/h ISS makes one full circle around the earth in just 1 1/2 hours, so after 45 min ISS accomplishes one half of the full circle around the earth, after 22 1/2 min ISS carries out 1/4 circle around the earth, after less than 12 min ISS makes 1/8 circle around the earth. Now, can anyone point me to the video in which ISS pilots show to us (showing off their devine perspective) in one frame how they can cross (flying above) some discernible part of the earth in just 12 min???

ONE SINGLE VIDEO OF THAT KIND??? ANYONE???

In the meantime (while i am waiting to see such a spectacular video), i can show you one other totally spectacular video which proves my point :

I looked into why they haven't gone back. Excuses such as "we don't have the technology anymore and safety reasons" but they biggest excuse ... "It's really expensive and NASA doesn't have enough funding". Sooo, I researched how much money has been budgeted for NASA.. from 1958-2018 round $601 billion! In 2017,the budget given is $19.653 billion which $628 million above the original request for the agency in the Obama administration. I have also read their expenditures were only 1/5 or around $101 billion. So why again is money an issue?
 And who in the f loses or "erases" one of the biggest advances in history due to a shortage of film. I have read it was like 700 boxes of the original moon landing . Really??

If some robot like Jesus would walk on the Moon in sandals, wrapped in bed shit and NASA would say that was Jesus,  I am sure millions would believe it.


The U.S. (and for a while, the world) altitude record for unmanned balloons was 51.8 km (170,000 ft) (according to a 1991 edition of Guinness Book of World Records). The vehicle was a Winzen-Balloon with a volume of 1.35 million cubic metres, launched in October 1972 in Chico, California, USA.[citation needed]

During 2002 an ultra-thin-film balloon named BU60-1 made of polyethylene film 3.4 µm thick with a volume of 60,000 m³ was launched from Sanriku Balloon Center at Ofunato City, Iwate in Japan at 6:35 on May 23, 2002. The balloon ascended at a speed of 260 m per minute and successfully reached the altitude of 53.0 km (173,900 ft), breaking the previous world record set during 1972

Because shape of the earth is not a USA thing! NASA exists since 1958! And many nations around the world were exploring the space for much more longer time before it has been established. So, considering that no conspiracy can be achieved without the money, who paid then everyone since then? :) I mean, even Nazis V2 was achieving attitude of 100km (far higher than alleged dome would exists). So V2 was fake and USA paid them to not to tell to anyone? :-)

Besides - proving the challenger disaster was fake by finding similar people living somewhere is so stupidly silly, that i can't even name it. I have literally Rutger Hauer, Dolph Lundgren and Linda Hamilton living in 70.000 city in Poland.

Quote from: dutchy
All that was lost and/or destroyed was negligence at worst but never evil intentions to cover up.

Nowhere near as much was lost as you might claim. Some data tapes were reused pretty much of necessity.
Some video tapes were lost, probably due to hurried moves when the lunar missions were curtailed earlier than expected.
Do you have evidence to the contrary?

The only "technology" lost was the expertise of the fitters and welders that built the system and in particular the engined.
But that technology would be of little use now because production methods are so different.
Back then the engines were made of numerous simply shaped pieces welded together - needing those expert hand welders.
Modern methods can fabricate complex shapes of metal and no need far fewer individual components.

Quote from: dutchy
The promised moonbase and trips to the moon for civilians are put on hold by unwilling  congressmen .... not the lacking abilities at NASA that have been put to sleep through the lacking fundings.
Who promised "moonbase and trips to the moon for civilians"? Was it NASA or media writers?
But NASA had no option but to cut back spending drastically and they made some unwise decisions around that time.
The Space Shuttle might have been a "marvelous thing" but, in hindsight, was ill-conceived and too risky.

It lead to new technology including a rocket engine that could perform at near optimum efficency frim sea-level to space but at a high cost in lives and money.

When it came to the lunar missions there were plant of HAM operators and Russia, with a satellite in lunar orbit at the time of Apollo 11 ready to spill-the-beans.

Russians were watching every step and would have known if they didn't land,  though the Russian Cosmonauts were relieved when they landed.

But carry on dreaming as the number of companies building and launching satellites continues to grow!
Just proving your claims like "They know once a single card is going to fall the house of cards will follow."

I still can't work out what you have against NASA but apparently not against ROSCOSMOS, ESA, ISRO or JAXA.
And NASA's annual budget might be about $US 20 Billion but the commercial space budget is close to $US 350 Billion.

The U.S. (and for a while, the world) altitude record for unmanned balloons was 51.8 km (170,000 ft) (according to a 1991 edition of Guinness Book of World Records). The vehicle was a Winzen-Balloon with a volume of 1.35 million cubic metres, launched in October 1972 in Chico, California, USA.[citation needed]

During 2002 an ultra-thin-film balloon named BU60-1 made of polyethylene film 3.4 µm thick with a volume of 60,000 m³ was launched from Sanriku Balloon Center at Ofunato City, Iwate in Japan at 6:35 on May 23, 2002. The balloon ascended at a speed of 260 m per minute and successfully reached the altitude of 53.0 km (173,900 ft), breaking the previous world record set during 1972

Yes, when they are sent to that altitude and given orbital velocity with a rocket! Then that "balloon" becomes a big reflective sphere!

Why is that a problem?
It was one of the Echo satellites and not held aloft by buoyancy but by orbiting.

Which is why many of us bother answering claims about flat earth and geocentricity posted in this forum.

Well, i understand ... why you put flat earth and geocentricity in the same sentence...

It's because both are appealing and appear to make sense if not critically examined, but neither stand up to more than trivial  scrutiny.

This is exactly why you have to subscribe to my youtube channel :

NASA is lying almost about everything and the earth is round. Flat-earth stupidity revival was orchestrated by NASA guys. They carefully organized it in a way that was going to produce the result that they wanted : whenever someone mention something about NASA fraudulent missions, or about the heliocentric hoax (which is a grandaddy of all deceptions in today's world) or about "evolution theory" hoax, or about Big-Bang idiocy, or about 9/11 inside job, or about NWO agenda, or about Kennedy assassination (which was an inside job, also), etc..., they instantly pull out their ace "flat earth stupidity" saying : you see there is no essential difference between these guys and those who believe that the earth is flat (they instantly assign flat-earth label to all of them, in order to discredit every voice of reason in today's fucked up world)...

The Conspiracy Theory Channel? No, thanks.

For proof, grab your tin-foil hat and read on, because here we’ve gathered all of the wildest conspiracy theories that have turned out to be 100 percent rooted in fact.

1. Prohibition was introduced in 1920 to control the country’s alcohol consumption, but that only resulted in widespread speakeasies and bootlegging, which is the illegal production and distribution of alcohol. The prohibition law proved it wasn’t enough to curb drinking habits, so the government took more drastic measures. They decided to poison the country’s illegal liquor supply by adding toxins, including highly-lethal methanol, to alcohol in the mid-1920s. In total, it is estimated around 10,000 people died as a result of the government’s poisoning.

2. From 1953 to 1964, the CIA secretly dosed individuals with LSD to test the potential effects of mind control. During this practice—called Project MKUltra—thousands of U.S. citizens were given LSD without their knowledge or consent. In 1973, CIA Director Richard Helms ordered the destruction of all records related to MKUltra. So now there is very little evidence that remains, but this immoral research was likely responsible for many resulting deaths. One of the most notable was that of Frank Olson, a United States Army biochemist and biological weapons researcher who was given LSD without his knowledge or consent in November of 1953.

3. In 1964, President Lyndon Johnson told the public that U.S. ships were attacked by the Vietnamese—known as the Gulf of Tonkin attack—to gain the support of American citizens for the Vietnam War. However, a year later, Johnson admitted there was no attack and was quoted as saying, “For all I know, our Navy was shooting at whales out there.” In 2005, official documents from the National Security Agency were released that confirmed that the whole Gulf of Tonkin attack never happened and was fabricated to gain support the war.

4. About 1,600 Nazi scientists were sent to work in the U.S. in 1945 following Germany’s defeat in WWII. The program, called Operation Paperclip, was exposed in media outlets, including the New York Times, in 1946. Some of these scientists were involved in Project MKUltra. Wernher von Braun was one of the well-known former Nazi participants in this program, and he was put to work as director of the Development Operations Division of the Army Ballistic Missile Agency. He was involved in the moon landing and developed the Jupiter-C rocket used to launch America’s first satellite.

5. In 1975, the CIA revealed a secret weapon that could cause fatal heart attacks. It worked by shooting a small poison dart that could penetrate clothing and left behind nothing but a tiny red dot on the skin. The dart disintegrated on impact, and the target would only feel a small prick, similar to a bug bite. Since the poison denatured quickly, it could not be detected in an autopsy. Therefore, the CIA could carry out assassinations that wouldn’t be traced back to them. Many believe the CIA still uses this weapon today.

6. The government is using its vast resources to track its citizens via their online activities. In fact, according to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), in 2016, government agencies sent 49,868 requests for user data to Facebook, 27,850 to Google, and 9,076 to Apple. EFF is a major nonprofit organization which defends civil liberties in the digital world and advises the public on internet privacy matters.

7. In 1960, it was discovered that the monkey kidney cells used to make the Salk polio vaccine could cause cancer. Americans were not told about this, and between 1955 and 1963, nearly 100 million children were given this contaminated vaccine. Although the cells were removed from polio vaccines in 1963, scientists around the world continue to identify them in human brain, bone and lung cancers of children and adults.

8. Leading up to the Gulf War, a young girl identified simply as “Nayirah” testified before the Congressional Human Rights Caucus in 1990. She told stories about the treatment of the Kuwaitis by the invading Iraqis, which horrified members of Congress and many Americans. Although many people did die following Iraq’s invasion, her testimony was made up. She was actually the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the U.S., and her testimony was set up as part of a public relations campaign called Citizens for a Free Kuwait, run by a Hill & Knowlton, a public relations firm

9. For decades, it was believed that Hitler took his own life after World War II ended. Unsurprisingly, there were also many who believed that it was a setup and that he had actually sneaked away. Supposedly, Hitler’s skull was in the custody of the Russian government. In 2009, tests were finally performed on the skull. The shocking results revealed that the skull was actually that of a young woman. Ironically, the tests were done to lessen the credibility of the conspiracy theorists who believed he had gone into hiding

Of those things you nominate, only the Kennedy assassination conspiracy theory has even a shadow of a chance of being remotely possible, and that's quite sketchy.

Alpha, pay attention to these words (in the following screenshot) which one guy had left below my video JFK ASSASSINATION - THE FINAL TRUTH - part 1 : :

I can't believe how many CIA agents and shills have left their deceptive - misinforming comments below this video in last few weeks...However i am diligent in deleting such comments after taking screenshot of every each of them (and i can present to you dear Alpha, every each of them, also)...Keep them coming...any such comment will be deleted as well... :)

CIA Document #1035-960: Using politicians and the media to counter criticism of the Warren Report — This document, dated Jan. 4, 1967, and marked PSYCH for Psychological Warfare, directs agents of the CIA to counter critics of the Warren Report by using "liaison and friendly elite contacts (especially politicians and editors)" and "to employ propaganda assets to answer and refute the attacks of the critics."

House Select Committee on Assassinations final report: A conspiracy behind JFK's assassination? — In 1975, investigations by the Rockefeller Commission and the Church Committee revealed the CIA had abused its power by engaging in illegal investigations and activities. As a follow-up, the HSCA was created to investigate the assassinations of JFK and MLK. The HSCA issued its findings in 1979, stating, "The committee believes, on the basis of evidence available to it, that President John F. Kennedy was probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy." The committee recommended to the Justice Department that the case be reopened. To date, the department has declined to do so.

If Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy, I own and am selling the Brooklyn Bridge for the modest price of $19.95.........Returns not accepted.

I recall one occasion when Donald Trump (very well knowing that he blatantly lies) put the blame for 9/11 on Osama Bin Laden... It seems as if you are not allowed to live and work in USA unless you swear on 9/11 official interpretation (which became some kind of a satanic holly grail before which everyone have to kneel and worship it), isn't that so?

Wrong again. I live and work in the USA. 9/11 conspiracists were thick on the ground for years, and I worked with a few. Many seem to have moved on to different things to be entertained by or feel threatened by now, maybe because they got bored, or maybe they realized they would rather hate Muslims, and doubting that Muslims pulled off 9/11 was counterproductive to that. Whatever the reason, not as many are quite so noisy about it any more.

Since you live and work in the USA then you should really watch this video :




Ignorant folk think that such minority opinions as geocentric theory (which is true description of our reality) are the "conspiracy theories" . . .

No, you have that backwards. It's an ignorant minority that think heliocentric theory (which is true description of our reality) is being pushed by a mysterious conspiracy. Rational people think minority opinions like geocentric theorists are merely ignorant, not conspirators; most people who really believe in geocentrism are pretty vocal about it - exactly the opposite of a conspiracy, unless they are secretly heliocentrists trying to look so ignorant that they give geocentrism a bad name. But that makes no sense, because there would be no point since you just have heliocentrists, and heliocentrists that pretend to be geocentrists, so what's the point?

The point is that you have no valid (EXPERIMENTAL) proof in favor of heliocentricity...and on the other hand you have enormous amount of EXPERIMENTAL proofs in favor of geocentricity...

Here is one other very important SMOKING GUN :

That makes NASA the ONLY institute/company/organisation in the history of mankind with an almost perfect track record.
Hell even the Red Cross can only dream of such a perfect history in which 'to serve the progress of mankind' is the only interrest.
But NASA supporters are a bit like 'Michael Jackson' supporters..... you simply can't discuss the supposed wrongdoings..... because no wrongdoings were committed ever.

How is that an argument?

Of course NASA had failures. Although you made up a story, i am pretty sure you know very well, that that is not the truth.
Only to mention few more obvious facts, like challenger disaster, like apollo program astronauts died while doing tests in lunar module, like buying Yugoslav space program, and many, many more.

But you know what? We know about this. So, you believe, that NASA and many other space agencies around the world, observatories, scientists, amateurs, airlines, literally millions of people hide for much more longer time something much more bigger? How, for the Christ? And why? Because the NASA budget cannot be event considered as anything able to cover percent of this...


What the notoriously corrupt United States federal government is claiming is to have sent men to the moon in 1969, on the VERY FIRST attempt, even though right here on earth Mt. Everest and the South Pole took NUMEROUS tries before success, allegedly accomplishing this amazing feat with 50 YEAR older technology (a cell phone has ONE MILLION times more computing power than ALL of NASA did in 1969), yet 50 YEARS later NASA can now only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon, even with 5 DECADES more advancements in rockets and computers.

If Toyota claimed they made a car 50 YEARS ago that could travel 50,000 miles on one gallon of gasoline, yet today their best car can only go 50 miles per gallon, or ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance, would not the forgery of the previous claim be incredibly obvious? If it were not for people's pride and emotional attachment to the 50 YEAR OLD unrepeatable moon landing claim, also with only ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance capable 5 DECADES later, they would otherwise easily recognize this equally preposterous claim as the fraud that it sadly is.

The alleged moon landings are the only technological claim in the entire history of the world, such as the first automobile, airplane, or nuclear power, which was not far surpassed in capability 50 YEARS later, much less not even able to be duplicated by any nation on earth 50 YEARS later. The supposed moon landings are also the only time in history that such claimed expensive technology was deliberately destroyed afterwards (175 BILLION DOLLARS worth), only done so to hide the evidence of the fraud.

Seeing how it is IMPOSSIBLE for technology to go BACKWARDS and today NASA can only send astronauts ONE - THOUSANDTH the distance to the moon as was claimed 50 YEARS ago on the VERY FIRST attempt with 5 DECADES OLDER technology, the only remaining conclusion is that the 1969 claim was a federal government lie. It is that simple and that corrupt.

Vladimir Markin, a former spokesman for the government's official Investigative Committee, said the committee had called for an inquiry to find out what happened to the original footage of the first moon landing in 1969 and also lunar rock, brought back to Earth during the several "missions".

He said: "We are not contending that they did not fly [to the moon], and simply made a film about it. But all of these scientific — or perhaps cultural — artefacts are part of the legacy of humanity, and their disappearance without a trace is our common loss. An investigation will reveal what happened."

In 2009, NASA said it "erased" the original video recordings of the first moon landing among 200,000 other tapes in order to save money. LOL

It has since said restored copies of the landing had been put together using recordings from news footage at the time. LOL

NASA claims because of restoration work undertaken during this, the recordings' quality is better than the original which is no longer available. LOL

In 2001 David McKay, chief scientist for planetary science and exploration at NASA's Johnson Space Center, said most of the soil and rock removed from the Moon was stored there, but is is unclear where it all is now, 46 years on. LOL

Hurtling 27600 km/h ISS makes one full circle around the earth in just 1 1/2 hours, so after 45 min ISS accomplishes one half of the full circle around the earth, after 22 1/2 min ISS carries out 1/4 circle around the earth, after less than 12 min ISS makes 1/8 circle around the earth. Now, can anyone point me to the video in which ISS pilots show to us (showing off their devine perspective) in one frame how they can cross (flying above) some discernible part of the earth in just 12 min???

ONE SINGLE VIDEO OF THAT KIND??? ANYONE???

In the meantime (while i am waiting to see such a spectacular video), i can show you one other totally spectacular video which proves my point :

I looked into why they haven't gone back. Excuses such as "we don't have the technology anymore and safety reasons" but they biggest excuse ... "It's really expensive and NASA doesn't have enough funding". Sooo, I researched how much money has been budgeted for NASA.. from 1958-2018 round $601 billion! In 2017,the budget given is $19.653 billion which $628 million above the original request for the agency in the Obama administration. I have also read their expenditures were only 1/5 or around $101 billion. So why again is money an issue?
 And who in the f loses or "erases" one of the biggest advances in history due to a shortage of film. I have read it was like 700 boxes of the original moon landing . Really??

If some robot like Jesus would walk on the Moon in sandals, wrapped in bed shit and NASA would say that was Jesus,  I am sure millions would believe it.

The ‘they haven’t replicated the technology of 50 years ago therefore the moon landings never happened’ argument gets trotted out on a regular basis by you.

There are a number of reasons the US hasn’t been back, they won the race with the USSR, loss of public interest, etc.,

As for why can’t the technology be kept in use or reused. Simple, it’s 50 years old and the infrastructure, techniques and industry which built the vehicles is no longer there.

https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/6281/why-not-build-saturn-vs-again

Not only that, standards, especially safety and specifications, have changed.

But you would have known that if you had thought about it.

In any case, the Indians have landed a probe on the moon recently, so yes current technology is there to get to the moon. So no problem.

I said something about 8chan and you. Seems it was quite accurate.
You said something = 0 validity
Since you like to quote wikipedia, i've got something for your CNN brain :

"The words gullible and credulous are commonly used as synonyms. Goepp & Kay (1984) state that while both words mean "unduly trusting or confiding", gullibility stresses being duped or made a fool of, suggesting a lack of intelligence, whereas credulity stresses uncritically forming beliefs, suggesting a lack of skepticism. Jewell (2006) states the difference is a matter of degree: the gullible are "the easiest to deceive", while the credulous are "a little too quick to believe something, but they usually aren't stupid enough to act on it."

So, since
gullible = "the easiest to deceive"
and
credulous = "a little too quick to believe something, but they usually aren't stupid enough to act on it"
then
it seems to me
that
you
are
very
gullible
person....
unless
you are not....
And if you are not
then
you should read
the following words
once again :

Not only that...Someone publicly (live world broadcast) assassinated 3000 american citizens, and we all know who did it, and all these heliocentrists (Rabinoz, Macarios, Yes, markjo, sokarul, Alpha2Omega, stash, mak3m, rvlrv, magellanclavichord, JerkFace, Themightykabool, Crutchwater, Sunset, Unconvinced, Romp, Heavenly Breeze, NotSoSkeptical etc...) stare at the evidence (irrefutable facts) and pretend that they don't see what they see, or that they are stupid enough not to be able to infer (from these irrefutable facts) the only possible/reasonable conclusion (as to who is behind 9/11 inside job)!!!

Someone publicly assassinated 3000 american citizens, then that someone (CIA, MOSSAD and co.) after orchestrating and carrying out their New Perl Harbour/911 false flag operation (which was an excuse for invading a whole bunch of sovereign countries) went on killing hundreds of thousands (and even millions) innocent civilians across various north african and middle east countries, and they (CIA, MOSSAD and co.) got away with all these attrocities (for the umpteenth time in a row)...And Rabinoz, Macarios, Yes, markjo, sokarul, Alpha2Omega, stash, mak3m, rvlrv, magellanclavichord, JerkFace, Themightykabool, Crutchwater, Sunset, Unconvinced, Romp, Heavenly Breeze, NotSoSkeptical and others are perfectly fine with that : pretending that they don't know what they do know a.k.a. absolving/pardoning perpetrators (CIA, MOSSAD and co.) of all these attrocities...

The United States is a Corporation

Yes, you read the title correctly. We are not living in a country with a government of the people, by the people, for the people, but we are part of a giant Corporation, The United States Corporation, and the President of America is the CEO. We are only the employees. This Corporation, in its turn, is owned by another Corporation, The British Crown.

"Hey, wait a minute! First of all, America is not owned by Great Britain," you may way. "That's what the War of Independence was all about; to free ourselves from British tyranny. We are free from Britain and we have our own Constitution. Our Founding Fathers helped out with that!"

If this is what you think, it is incorrect, and I will tell you why. We have never been free from Britain; the power only changed from overt power to covert power. They gave us an illusion of freedom, and they have succeeded well to keep their little secret. Thus, the Founding Fathers, who most of them were Freemasons, had no intention to give us any freedom. They worked hand in glove with the British Crown all the time, but the only way to establish a "New World" in America was to fool the people and tell them that they were fighting for freedom. This is the plain truth in a nutshell, but now it's time to back up and explain the above a little deeper..

They worked hand in glove with the British Crown all the time, but the only way to establish a "New World" in America was to fool the people and tell them that they were fighting for freedom. This is the plain truth in a nutshell, but now it's time to back up and explain the above a little deeper..

Oh man, thankfully I know enough Americans and I have had the fortune of visiting there enough times to know it is not a homogenous mass of minds.

But there is the ”stereotypical American conspiracy nut”. And you fit the bill.

You know nothing, boy :

Americans think that their government and legal system is pegged in some way to the Constitution, but it is not. The United States, like Britain and elsewhere, is ruled by commercial law to overcome the checks and balances of common law. It's another monumental fraud. The US court system does not operate under the American Constitution, but under corporate law. It is the law of contracts and you have to make a contract with the Corporation for that law to legally apply to you.

The scam has been set up so that when you register with the 'Federal Government' in any way, by accepting a Social Security Number, driver's license, or any of the other official federal documents, you are, unknowingly, contracting to become an asset-employee of the United States Corporation...Every word, or use of lower/upper case, is making a legal statement. Have you noticed that when you receive correspondence relating to government, law and anything to do with finance, including taxation, your name is always spelt in all upper case, as in BILL JONES?

But your upper case name is not you. It is a corporation/trust set up by the 'government' Corporation through the treasury department at your birth. Every time a child is born a corporation/trust is created using his or her name in all upper case. So BILL JONES is what they call a 'straw man', a corporate, not human, entity. They do it this way because governments are corporations and they operate under commercial law, the law of contracts. The laws passed by governments only apply to corporations and not to living, breathing, flesh and blood, sovereign, free men and women spelt in upper and lower case, or all lower case, as with Bill Jones, or bill jones. The living, breathing sovereign man and woman is subject to common law, not eh commercial law introduced by governments through legislation.

Using commercial law makes it much easier to install an 'elected' dictatorship. Unlike common law, you are not subject to precedents built up over centuries. You simply have to get a majority to vote for a bill in Parliament of Congress, or have the US President sign a document, and the law is imposed. What you also have to do - clearly not difficult - is to keep from the people the knowledge that their name in all upper case is not them. They will then pay you taxes and be subject to your jurisdiction and control in all areas of their lives, by unknowingly standing surety for the corporation - 'BILL JONES' - that they don't even know exists.

All court documents have the person's name in all upper case because under the law of contracts the living, breathing being cannot be tried under corporate law, only a corporate entity can. It is so crazy that Americans pay personal income tax to the government (corporation) via the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) when the law to introduce personal income tax was never passed. Ask anyone from the US government or IRS to produce the law that says Americans must pay income tax on their wages and they will not be able to do it. Many have tried and the law has never been revealed because it doesn't exist...A $50,000 reward was offered by the We The People organization to anyone who could produce the law and IRS agent, Sherry Jackson, thought it would be easy money. She then found out that there was no law and resigned to become a campaigner against this fantastic hoax...

...Yet, when people don't pay taxes, which they do not legally have to pay, the IRS takes their property, puts them in jail, and ever more often sends in the armed goons in the black masks. It's fascism, nothing less...If anyone thinks that without personal income tax there would be no education and other public services - it's not true. They are paid for by state and property taxes, business taxes, sales taxes, fuel tax, booze tax and all the other endless taxation that we pay besides income tax. In fact, personal income tax in the US is roughly the same as the money paid by government to the banks in interest on loans.

After  you  thought  you  heard  everything,  Reed  notes  a  conversation  between Joseph Stalin and Roosevelt at the end of WWII:

“Then President Roosevelt, in the manner of a man who is a member of an exclusive club and is sure his host must also belong, ‘said he was  a  Zionist  and  asked  if  Marshal  Stalin  was  one.’  Stalin  replied  that  ‘he  was  one  in  principle  but  he  recognized  the  difficulty.’” 

No  accusations  of  hearsay  can  dismiss  Roosevelt’s  boast   since   Reed   informs   us   it   comes   from   “the   official   publication,  ‘The  Conferences  at  Malta  and  Yalta,  1945’  issued  by   the   American   State   Department   on   March   16,   1955.”   Although  the  Montreal  Star  broke  the  next  morning  with  the  headline:  “World  Capitals  Dismayed,  Shocked  over  Disclosures  of Yalta Secrets,” but at this late stage of the game Reed resigns his  commentary  to  saying  “This  was  nonsense;  by  1955  the  masses were apathetic about such things, having been brought by control  of  the  press  to  the  condition  of  impotent  confusion  foretold in the Protocols of 1905.”

Reed  tells  us  of  similar  incidents.  “In  1941  the  Japanese  attack  on Pearl Harbor ‘on a day that will live in infamy’...but the later disclosures showed that the government in Washington had long been  warned  of  the  impending  attack  and  had  not  alerted  the  Pearl  Harbor  defenders....Twelve  days  earlier  Mr.  Henry  L.  Stimson,  the  Secretary  of  War,  after  a  cabinet  meeting    on  November  25,  1941,  had  noted  in  his  diary:  ‘The  question  was  how we should maneuver them’ (the Japanese) ‘into the position of  firing  the  first  shot  without  allowing  too  much  danger  to  ourselves; it was a difficult proposition.’”

The  Zionist  use  and  abuse  of  Churchill  mirrored  that  of  the  US  Presidents.  According  to  Reed’s  accounting,  Woodrow  Wilson was  little  more  than  a  puppet  of  the  Zionist  machineWilson  allowed  the  creation  of  the  Federal  Reserve  in  1913which  was  basically  a  Jewish  banking  cartel  devised,  at  the  behest  of  Lord  Rothschild,  at  Jekyll  Island  off  the  Carolinas  by  seven  of  the  world’s richest men. Wilson also introduced the Federal income tax to pay back, with usury, the money created out of thin air by the  Federal  Reserve,  two  deeds  that  it  is  said  Wilson  later  regretted  with  the  words  “I  am  a  most  unhappy  man.  I  have  unwittingly ruined my country,” and later “We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated,  governments  in  the  civilized  world—no  longer  a  government   by   free   opinion,   no   longer   a   government   by   conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and the duress of small groups of dominant men....Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and   manufacture,   are   afraid   of   somebody,   are   afraid   of   something.  They  know  that  there  is  a  power  somewhere  so  organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”

Rockets in a vacuum is not hypothetical.  It has been demonstrated several times in various YouTube videos that have been presented.  In fact, a basic setup doesn't seem to be all that hard if you want to verify it for yourself.

It sure reads like ordinary people (let say a former electricien) are punching way above their weight in their ‘rocket scientist’ impersonation. ;D ;D
The physics behind rocket propulsion really isn't that tough.  The engineering to make it happen is a different story.

I believe many things you have presented with of course a few exceptions.
I personally don’t like generalisations about ‘Jews’, ‘Zionists’, ‘Muslims’ etc. etc.
There are 34.000 different tranches of christianity and i have never met two Jews who agreed about their faith 100%. My sister lives in Israël for over 35 years and it’s absolutely mind boggling how colorfull and absurd the Jewish faith can be..... totally depends who you ask....

Of course i believe the wicked bankers constructed a system over the centuries that no sane person would ever invent.
But i’ll pass when people are claiming the Royal shape shifting lizard bloodlines from the days of Niburu have collaberated with the Zionists to screw humanity . ( i do not know if you believe any of that.... )

It gives those defending this current evil world a good reason to laugh everything away.
While researching the origans of our financial system, currencies, debts etc. is evil all the way.
Humans don’t have to be Jews/Zionists, Lizards, aliens or whatever to behave like humans do most of the time when placed in a position of full power and control.
Then they often start to behave like monsters who have sold their human conscious to the dark side.

Totally agreed with everything you've just said.
It is crucially important to differentiate between fact and opinion when reviewing any kind of data or documentation. The opinion is based in feeling or judgment and it can change. Facts cannot be disputed, and provide the empirical evidence needed to draw direct conclusions from someones work. Maybe the next exchange of thoughts can serve as best illustration for what i am trying to point out :

Do Jews Ever Do Anything Wrong?


Keating, page 226: “Most of the conspiracies to which Sungenis has   subscribed   have   involved   Jews:   Jews   were   behind   the   assassination  of  John  F.  Kennedy.  Jews  sent  Monica  Lewinsky  to   compromise   Bill   Clinton   because   he   was   insufficiently   friendly  to  Israel.  Most  importantly,  Jews  are  trying  to  control  the  Catholic  Church  precisely  because  they  reject  the  Messiah  and so reject the Church he founded.”

R. Sungenis: This is just more of Keating’s Jew-baiting (i.e., “I dare you to  blame  any  of  the  Jews,  and  if  you  do,  I’m  going  to  call  you  an  anti-semite”).  Whether  these  issues  are  right  or  wrong,  the  bottom  line  is  that  Keating and his cohorts will simply not allow any Jews to be implicated in any  conspiracy  against  either  the  United  States  or  the  Catholic  Church.  Ask  yourself,  is  this  possible?  We  already  have  clear  cut  evidence  that  Israel  spied  on  the  United  States  (e.g.,  Jonathan  Pollard)  and  there  are  more such cases. Likewise, Jews conspired with Catholic bishops in 2002 to  write  the  “Reflections  on  Covenant  and  Missions”  document  which  boldly  declared  that  Jews  were  no  longer  to  be  proselytized  to  convert  to  Christianity  since  it  was  now  discovered  that  the  Jews  had  their  own  salvific  covenant  with  God  that  has  never  been  superseded.  This  new  doctrine  finally  ended  up  as  a  sentence  in  the  2006  United  States  Adult  catechism  that  stated  the  “Mosaic  covenant  was  eternally  valid  for  the  Jewish  people,”  which  is  an  out-an-out  heresy.  To  conclude  from  these,  like Keating does, that there is no possibility for the Jews to be involved in either  espionage  cases  or  ecclesiastical  infiltration  is  simply  a  case  of  extreme naivety or willful ignorance.

Because if we intend to be human beings then this video must be the part of every topic.
This video should be the only topic, because we can't go on (viewing ourselves as humans) living our lives (as decent, honest people) before we do everything that is needed in order to put a stop to these horrendous atrocities that Zionist's regime commits against innocent, helpless Palestinian children continuously for more than 70 years now...
If you had a shred of decency, you would agree with me 100 % on this issue, after watching the video above...

Just keep it FE vs RE, please.

Or, better yet, have yourself checked in before you cause more harm to people who, for god knows what reason, still might have the strength to stay close to you.
Don’t go there please.... i know many people who are till this very date convinced that slaughtering up to 1 million Iraqies is the current collateral damage of the right call at the time.
Would you have preferred Saddam remain in power?

But in my, probably worthless, opinion the time to have finished Saddam Hussein off would have been to continue the first Gulf War a little longer.
Iraq's attack on Kuwait gave the excuse to be there and few questioned it.

That may well be, but it also has absolutely nothing at all to do with the physics of rockets working in a vacuum.
Correct ! But the topic has moved into various directions.

Everything has been said about rockets in outerspace ...
Then perhaps it's time for a mod to lock this thread.

The United States is a Corporation

Yes, you read the title correctly. We are not living in a country with a government of the people, by the people, for the people, but we are part of a giant Corporation, The United States Corporation, and the President of America is the CEO. We are only the employees. This Corporation, in its turn, is owned by another Corporation, The British Crown.

We? Aren't you Croatian?

As to your earlier post, yes, we're well aware that you love conspiracy theories, so there really is no need to confirm that in an excessively long post.

Let's look at the first "conspiracy" you mention in that screed:

1. Prohibition was introduced in 1920 to control the country’s alcohol consumption, but that only resulted in widespread speakeasies and bootlegging, which is the illegal production and distribution of alcohol. The prohibition law proved it wasn’t enough to curb drinking habits, so the government took more drastic measures. They decided to poison the country’s illegal liquor supply by adding toxins, including highly-lethal methanol, to alcohol in the mid-1920s. In total, it is estimated around 10,000 people died as a result of the government’s poisoning.

"Denaturing" alcohol, which is the process you describe, was not new to Prohibition, or the US Government. It was common practice to render alcohol intended for industrial purposes (and explicitly not for human consumption) undrinkable well before the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution (a.k.a. "Prohibition") went into effect, and it's still done today. To be a conspiracy, an illegal action needs to be planned (and possibly executed) in secret. Denaturing alcohol to make it so that it is not considered an intoxicant was neither illegal nor done in secret, as you suggest. If you want to discourage someone from drinking a particular batch of alcohol, why would you make it a secret that it has been rendered toxic?

Since you start with a tired old bogus claim in an attempt to support your conspiracy habit right off the bat, why bother with the rest of that tome?

Your own topic is entitled "HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)". I fail to see any connection between that video and your topic.

If you want to post that sort of thing why don't you make a thread in say, "Philosophy, Religion & Society"?

But on that video while the retaliation by Israel might be disproportionate, I have to ask why Hamas, etc, keeps up their rocket and other provocation.

Try twisting a lion's and you might find that the lion uses disproportionate force too.
While I think that Gaza is getting a raw deal they brought it on themselves with their continual needling.

It looks obvious to me that Hamas simply will not accept any deal as long as Israel exists and Israel is not going to walk out any time soon.

Don't ask me for a long term solution to a problem caused largely by, as far as I can see, the British in 1948.

If you want to carry on this sort of discussion make a thread in the right place!

I’ve been thinking about this conundrum.

As we know rockets do work. The Chinese blasted their enemies with rockets already during the Ming dynasty (the regular historical dynasty, not Ming the Merciless of Flash Gordon fame), and I’d imagine most of us have shot some rockets during New Year’s. The principle is sound. And if you scale one big enough it will fly high.

So I guess the problem is what happens when rocket(s) hit the firmament, and the ”Never” beyond it. How do they clear it. Could it be the Never is liquid behind the barrier? And rockets would need to be akin to submarines or torpedoes?

Russians have the supercavitating Shkval torpedoes. Those move pretty fast in liquid, so maybe the same tech works with the Never? Has this angle been discussed already? NASA works with the ex-Soviets, the Russians, so they have the know-how. Is this something they keep from us?

I am puzzled why there is so little discussion about the Apollo scam and people concentrate on what is between brackets and secondairy ( rockets can’t fly in a vacuum).
It’s about time we bring this topic back on track and talk about the 50 years ongoing Apollo scam that is a total disgrace for the human species.

Human tissue can’t make it into deepspace unless we ‘denigrate’ ourselves with AI and robotic implementations.
Maybe then these hybrid humans can go beyond a certain modest altitude.

Apollo and the outragious claims about a shortcut ‘calculated’ by the ignorant 1969 radiation experts ....the bathing suits, alufoil moonmachines, the absent cosmic particles piercing through the suits and moon machines ...... laughable.

Of course no ordinary human will ever go beyond the VAB. They know it for 50 years , but NASA pees upon ordinary people giving them a slapstick SF movie with funny, singing, playing astronots and still maintain the position we actually went to the moon with humans onboard.

The "ignorant 1969 radiation experts" are those like you who pretend knowledge that you do not have! Please consider:I and I imagine NASA would be far more concerned with radiation outside the VABs.
The particulate radiation within the VABs is best shielded by light materials such as aluminium and plastics but most certainly NOT
heavy metals like lead!

Outside the VABs there are still the cosmic rays and of more immediate concern solar flares.

Of course no ordinary human will ever go beyond the VAB.
And on what authority do you claim that? Your total ignorance of the VABs or do you have more evidence?

Carry on, carrying on! You're incapable of understanding so I don't know why I bother.

But, why is going beyond the VABs so important to you? Hundreds have been to the ISS and no longer carried there by NASA!
Until the United Launch Alliance and SpaceX are crew certified ROSCOSMOS (the Russian Space Authority) is ferrying crew to and from the ISS.

So why do you not rant and rave against these and the many other groups launching satellites and their own space missions?

No, it is the same refuted spam.

No where in there do you actually address my question.
You either start with the gas magically accelerated, completely skipping my question; pretend it is a force and completely ignore the question; or just outright ignore it.

Again, keeping it simple by using the simplest type of rocket, a cold gas thruster, i.e. a tank of compressed gas:
We have the gas with the rocket. The gas is currently moving with the rocket.
We pick an inertial reference frame where the rocket and gas are stationary.
Now, we open the tank and expose the pressurised gas to the vacuum of space.
What happens?

Does the gas magically stay with the rocket, staying inside the tank, even though it is open to space and thus all rational thought demands the gas leaves?

Or does the gas leave? But that then means its velocity has changed. It has accelerated to leave the tank and now move outwards.
But by Newton's laws of motion, this demands a force.
You do accept that gas has mass right?
Furthermore, by Newton's laws of motion, and your own interpretation of it (which you have posted in this thread), this demands an interaction with another body with this other body also receiving a force and also accelerating.
The only other body around is the rocket.
That means that the rocket must interact with the gas, with the gas being forced and accelerated backwards while the rocket is forced and accelerated forwards.

That means that rockets must work in a vacuum.

This is what you have been repeatedly avoiding, such as by starting with the gas already accelerated so you can ignore the key part, the acceleration of the gas which demands the rocket is also accelerated.

If you disagree, state exactly which part you disagree with and what the alternative is, i.e. what you think.

Do you disagree that the gas will escape and instead think it will magically remain inside the open container exposed to a vacuum?
Do you disagree that the gas has mass?
Do you disagree that the gas must accelerate?
Do you disagree that the gas requires a force to accelerate it?
Do you disagree that a force requires an equal and opposite force and an interaction with another body?
Do you disagree that the rocket is the only other body?

If you can't provide an alternative, then admit rockets work in a vacuum.

Once you admit rockets do work in a vacuum, or provide an alternative which actually addresses the question/issue I have raised, I will fix up your straw-man of my position.

That makes NASA the ONLY institute/company/organisation in the history of mankind with an almost perfect track record.
Hell even the Red Cross can only dream of such a perfect history in which 'to serve the progress of mankind' is the only interrest.
But NASA supporters are a bit like 'Michael Jackson' supporters..... you simply can't discuss the supposed wrongdoings..... because no wrongdoings were committed ever.
Not in the slightest. They have made plenty of mistakes and gotten people killed and have been involved in military projects which were secret which likely also contributed to getting people killed. That is not an almost perfect track record, nor does it mean that serving the progress of mankind is the only interest.

I'm not JackBlack, but get this into your head!
There is nothing in there that refutes the plain simple fact that most of the thrust from a rocket engine comes simply from Newton's Force = time rate of change of momentum.

Now stand in the corner till you have read and understood, ROCKET PROPULSION by Robert A. Braeunig (http://www.braeunig.us/space/propuls.htm)

That massive rant seems to boil down to this:
Newton's Third Law - Identifying Action and Reaction Force Pairs

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions!

"When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body."
And that presents no problem at all!

The "first body" is the rocket engine (and the rest of the rocket and propellant) and the "second body" is massive amount of burnt propellant ejected at a very high velocity.

The SpaceX Falcon 9's nine engines eject a total of about 2,216 kilograms per second at a velocity of about 3150 m/sec.!

No, it is the same refuted spam.

No where in there do you actually address my question.
You either start with the gas magically accelerated, completely skipping my question; pretend it is a force and completely ignore the question; or just outright ignore it.

Again, keeping it simple by using the simplest type of rocket, a cold gas thruster, i.e. a tank of compressed gas:
We have the gas with the rocket. The gas is currently moving with the rocket.
We pick an inertial reference frame where the rocket and gas are stationary.
Now, we open the tank and expose the pressurised gas to the vacuum of space.
What happens?

Does the gas magically stay with the rocket, staying inside the tank, even though it is open to space and thus all rational thought demands the gas leaves?

Or does the gas leave? But that then means its velocity has changed. It has accelerated to leave the tank and now move outwards.
But by Newton's laws of motion, this demands a force.
You do accept that gas has mass right?
Furthermore, by Newton's laws of motion, and your own interpretation of it (which you have posted in this thread), this demands an interaction with another body with this other body also receiving a force and also accelerating.
The only other body around is the rocket.
That means that the rocket must interact with the gas, with the gas being forced and accelerated backwards while the rocket is forced and accelerated forwards.

That means that rockets must work in a vacuum.

This is what you have been repeatedly avoiding, such as by starting with the gas already accelerated so you can ignore the key part, the acceleration of the gas which demands the rocket is also accelerated.

If you disagree, state exactly which part you disagree with and what the alternative is, i.e. what you think.

Do you disagree that the gas will escape and instead think it will magically remain inside the open container exposed to a vacuum?
Do you disagree that the gas has mass?
Do you disagree that the gas must accelerate?
Do you disagree that the gas requires a force to accelerate it?
Do you disagree that a force requires an equal and opposite force and an interaction with another body?
Do you disagree that the rocket is the only other body?

If you can't provide an alternative, then admit rockets work in a vacuum.

Once you admit rockets do work in a vacuum, or provide an alternative which actually addresses the question/issue I have raised, I will fix up your straw-man of my position.

I see, you are philosopher...So, let me ask you something...
If time = measure of change, and change presumes space (three dimensions), then timelessness excludes change (motion) and space (dimensions). Since many philosophers talk about alleged reality (God) which is Non-contingent (necessary) - Everlasting (timeless) - Uncaused, as something which is (for certain reasons like "Ex Nihilo Nihil Fit" ; "impossibility of infinite regression of causes" etc...) practically self-evident, would you agree that these philosophers actually have no idea what they are talking about, in the first place?

What do i mean? If Timelessness (God) has to be devoid of change (motion) and dimensions (space), then there is no way how we could fathom such "necessary" reality (which is beyond reality). If we are unable to even begin to apprehend "Something" that exists in a way which presumes absence of space and time, does it mean that such "Something" is only expression of inadequacy of our power of comprehension, or it means that such "Something" can't even exist objectively? In other words : Since that "Something" is actually "Nothing" (Nothingness) (as far as our power of reasoning is concerned), could it be that such "Nothing" is something "more" (better to say something "less" (Absolute Nothingness)) than just an expression of limitation of our power of comprehension?

If so then Being = Non-Being!!!
If so, our conversation is an illusion!!!

So before we continue our conversation i would like to know whether our conversation is real or not...Can you help me about this dilemma?

Your topic is "HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)"! Why do you refuse to answer questions relevant to that?

I can only assume it's because you know that you've been thrashed and have no answers.

I see, you are philosopher...So, let me ask you something...
While technically scientists are a subset of philosophy, especially with graduates getting a doctor of philosophy for science, I wouldn't call myself a philosopher.
Also, what I stated has absolutely nothing to do with philosophy in the sense it is typically meant.
It is simple physics.

Anything else is a distraction.
Deal with the question asked or admit you cannot deal with it without admitting rockets work in a vacuum.

Again:
We know the gas is initially travelling with the rocket.
Then the tank is opened to space.
What happens?
Does the gas remain magically trapped inside the open container, exposed to a vacuum?
Or does it accelerate and leave it?
If the former, HOW?
If the latter, then as you have already pointed out, this DEMANDS a force. This force DEMANDS a second body to interact with and cause a reactionary force.
As you have pointed out, there is no other body in space. The only thing the gas can interact with is the rocket.
That means it DEMANDS that the rocket also has a force applied and thus it accelerates.
That DEMANDS that rockets do work in a vacuum.

There are very few ways out.
You could reject Newton's laws of motion, and thus claim an object can accelerate without a force or not need a second body to interact with to produce a reactionary force. But that would then mean that rockets could work fine in a vacuum.
You could reject the fact that gas has mass, but that destroys your idea of how rockets work in the atmosphere, and would make drag from the air impossible.
Or you could reject the fact that gasses will tend to remove pressure differences and instead claim the generated gas will just magically stay inside the rocket.

If you think there is another way out, provide it. If you can't, admit rockets work in a vacuum.
Now, can you actually address this massive issue which you have been avoiding since page 1?

Now, care to answer my question : Is our conversation real or not?
Why is this important question?
Because a small mistake in the beginning is a big one in the end!

Quia parvus error in principio magnus est in fine, secundum philosophum in I caeli et mundi,
ens autem et essentia sunt quae primo intellectu concipiuntur, ut dicit Avicenna in principio suae metaphysicae.


Translation:
A small mistake in the beginning is a big one in the end, according to the Philosopher in the first book of On the Heavens and the Earth.
And as Ibn-Sînâ says in the beginning of his Metaphysics, being and essence are what is first conceived by the intellect.


So, if our conversation isn't real, then it's a big mistake in the beginning and a huge one in the end!
Let me show you one interesting example of that kind :

Post by: cikljamas on September 17, 2019, 07:52:06 AM
Now, care to answer my question : Is our conversation real or not?
Are you real or not?
(https://i.postimg.cc/nL7MmkF0/DO_I_EXIST.jpg)

What is reality?
WHEN you woke up this morning, you found the world largely as you left it. You were still you; the room in which you awoke was the same one you went to sleep in. The outside world had not been rearranged. History was unchanged and the future remained unknowable. In other words, you woke up to reality. But what is reality? The more we probe it, the harder it becomes to comprehend.

Let me present you two ways of reasoning on this matter :

1."First and foremost—leaving aside any question of intellectual intuition—the very fact of our existence necessarily implies pure Being; instead of starting with the idea that “I think; therefore I am”, one should say, “I am; therefore Being is”: 'sum ergo est Esse' and not 'cogito ergo sum'. What counts in our eyes is most definitely not some more or less correct line of reasoning but intrinsic certainty itself; reasoning is able to convey this in its own way: it describes the certainty in order to show forth its self-evident nature on the plane of discursive thought, and in this way it provides a key that others might use in actualizing this same certainty.”
Frithjof Schuon, Logic and Transcendence

2.“There is no unmoving mover behind the movement. It is only movement. It is not correct to say that life is moving, but life is movement itself. Life and movement are not two different things. In other words, there is no thinker behind the thought. Thought itself is the thinker. If you remove the thought, there is no thinker to be found.”
Walpola Rahula, What the Buddha Taught

What i wrote in my reply#1322 is very similar to what Walpola Rahula said in his quote above...Reply#1322 : https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=82434.msg2204835#msg2204835So, using what Walpola Rahula said i could shorten my argument like this : if we remove the thought (which is movement) we remove thinker (which is God)...If God thinks, He moves (his existence is dynamical), if He moves then the dynamic of such motion (the dynamic of God's thoughts) can't be understood as something that happens all at once (as some philosophers try to describe Timelessness), because "something that happens all at once" is opposite to "something that is dynamical." If God thinks (dynamically) He moves, and his movement (thoughts) have some quantity (even though it's infinite quantity). If there is some quantity of God's thoughts then we can count them (even if we have to count His countless thoughts), and if we can count them, then we need time to carry out such task. So, dynamical process of God's thoughts means that even God needs time (even if it is never ending activity) to think infinite number of his thoughts. And if he dynamically (not all at once) produces/creates His infinite thoughts, then his thoughts (His essense) are somehow interconnected/interrelated/parallel with Time (as we know it), which leads us to conclude that He also had to pick out certain point/moment on the infinite line of Eternity (Timless Time) in which He was going to create our Universe. However, since that line is infinitely long there would have never come such a moment in which He could actually create our Universe, since before any such hypothetical moment there would have preceded infinite number of previous moments which (infinity) would prevent our creation, and that is the problem.

No they are not.
I have already pointed out that they aren't.
When you first posted them I explained why they aren't.
You have even copied part of that explanation of why they don't answer my question in those messages.


Stop with the distractions. Stop repeatedly claiming to have already answered them with the same refuted spam, which in no way addresses the issue I have raised.

Either deal with the issue raised, actually dealing with it by telling us just how the gas accelerates and what other body it is interacting with to do so or admit that rockets work in a vacuum.
Once you have done so, we can move on.

So God is timeless, therefore rockets can’t fly in a vacuum because there is no rate of change?  This is your current  argument, right?

OK, I’ll bite on your current attempt to deflect and derail your own thread.

If there is an entity or higher power we could call God, do you presume that you, me or any other tiny human mind could be capable of fathoming His/Her/Its nature?

Whatever level of understanding of such things you tell yourself you have, it’s all irrelevant to the function of rockets.

We are not God, we perceive the passage of time.  Rockets are not God, we observe the the effect of time on them, along with every other physical object.

The nature of our reality is that time exists, rates of change happen, acceleration is a thing, and we can fly rockets in space.

God may well laugh at the primitive concepts we use to describe the universe, but us simpletons can still use GPS to help us get around and watch satellite TV.  Neither of which require a PhD in philosophy.

IN SHORT (Rockets can't work in a vacuum of space) :

IN SHORT (Being and Non Being) :

Being = Dynamics = Motion = Change = Presence = Existence
Non Being = Non Dynamics = No Motion = No Change = Absence = Non Existence

If Being (God) Is (Exists) then He is Nothing because He can't be in motion, since if He is in motion (if he thinks/creates/becomes) he is in Time (which is measure of change which is motion), and if He is in Time then He can't create Universe at any certain point of Time, since whichever point of time He chooses to be that certain moment (of creation of (our) Time) He has to wait infinite number of preceding moments to elapse before that moment (of creation).

If Being (God) Is Not (Doesn't Exist) then He is Something because He is Not in motion and as such (motionless, timeless, non dynamic, absent (of existence)) He can't create anything, He can't think, He "is" Absent Existence which is Nothing.

What this all means?
Knowledge is impossible!
And if knowledge is impossible, how can we even claim that we exist, in the first place?

ON TOP OF THAT :

In Chapter I of the Science of Logic, Hegel defines being to mean 'pure indeterminateness and emptiness', from which he concludes that being is nothing. Hegel then defines nothing as 'absence of all determination.' Since both being and nothing are absence of determination, Hegel concludes that 'being and nothing are the same'. But Hegel then writes:

'But it is equally true that they are not undistinguished from each other, that, on the contrary, they are not the same, that they are absolutely distinct, and yet that they are unseparated and inseparable and that each immediately vanishes in its opposite. Their truth is, therefore, this movement of the immediate vanishing of the one in the other: becoming...'

FAUST: I've studied now Philosophy
And Jurisprudence, Medicine,--
And even, alas! Theology,--
From end to end, with labor keen;
And here, poor fool! with all my lore
I stand, no wiser than before:
I'm Magister--yea, Doctor--hight,
And straight or cross-wise, wrong or right,
These ten years long, with many woes,
I've led my scholars by the nose,--
And see, that nothing can be known!
That knowledge cuts me to the bone.
I'm cleverer, true, than those fops of teachers,
Doctors and Magisters, Scribes and Preachers;
Neither scruples nor doubts come now to smite me,
Nor Hell nor Devil can longer affright me.

For this, all pleasure am I foregoing;
I do not pretend to aught worth knowing,
I do not pretend I could be a teacher
To help or convert a fellow-creature.
Then, too, I've neither lands nor gold,
Nor the world's least pomp or honor hold--
No dog would endure such a curst existence!
Wherefore, from Magic I seek assistance,
That many a secret perchance I reach
Through spirit-power and spirit-speech,
And thus the bitter task forego
Of saying the things I do not know,--
That I may detect the inmost force
Which binds the world, and guides its course;
Its germs, productive powers explore,
And rummage in empty words no more!

O full and splendid Moon, whom I
Have, from this desk, seen climb the sky
So many a midnight,--would thy glow
For the last time beheld my woe!
Ever thine eye, most mournful friend,
O'er books and papers saw me bend;
But would that I, on mountains grand,
Amid thy blessed light could stand,
With spirits through mountain-caverns hover,
Float in thy twilight the meadows over,
And, freed from the fumes of lore that swathe me,
To health in thy dewy fountains bathe me!

Ah, me! this dungeon still I see,
This drear, accursed masonry,
Where even the welcome daylight strains
But duskly through the painted panes.
Hemmed in by many a toppling heap
Of books worm-eaten, gray with dust,
Which to the vaulted ceiling creep,
Against the smoky paper thrust,--
With glasses, boxes, round me stacked,
And instruments together hurled,
Ancestral lumber, stuffed and packed--
Such is my world: and what a world!

And do I ask, wherefore my heart
Falters, oppressed with unknown needs?
Why some inexplicable smart
All movement of my life impedes?
Alas! in living Nature's stead,
Where God His human creature set,
In smoke and mould the fleshless dead
And bones of beasts surround me yet!

Fly! Up, and seek the broad, free land!
And this one Book of Mystery
From Nostradamus' very hand,
Is't not sufficient company?
When I the starry courses know,
And Nature's wise instruction seek,
With light of power my soul shall glow,
As when to spirits spirits speak.
'Tis vain, this empty brooding here,
Though guessed the holy symbols be:
Ye, Spirits, come--ye hover near--
Oh, if you hear me, answer me!

IN SHORT (Rockets can't work in a vacuum of space) :
But the guys in your video are wrong.  As discussed in the past 45 pages.  Doesn't that bother you that they're wrong?  The mass of the exhaust has to be accelerated, thus there is a force applied to the exhaust, and the equal and opposite force is applied to the rocket.

I have this fear that even after reading all posts, as soon as you watch a conspiracy theory YouTube video, your mind just kind of resets back.  Don't you find it disturbing how easily your mind reconforms to the YouTube videos you watch?

1 simple question.

The gas exiting the rocket. It pushes against the gases in the atmosphere. How does this translate to a foward movement of the rocket?

What happens once the ship is moving vertically? For a rocket away from the launchpad, the gas expanding out of the nozzle creates a Hydraulic Jump, which is that ring around water being poured into a sink when water moves along the surface until a wave begins to slow down causing the waves behind it to catch it and bunch it up creating a wall of water. The same thing happens with the expanding gas, the leading edge of which slows down due to air resistance and the fact that force decreases as the square of the distance traveled forming a dense cloud of molecules, which the next wave of expanding gas collides with and so forth, once again pushing up on the rocket. This effect should last until the rocket runs out of fuel or the air becomes thin enough so that the hydraulic jump point is far enough away from the ship to be negligible.

Now, i've got a few questions for you :


1) What is the formula for work/force/thrust done by a rocket in a vacuum?

2) What about Free Expansion/the Joule-Thompson effect? How does that affect rocket propulsion?

3) If the formula for work done by gas is W = P x V how does a gas do work when pressure is 0?

4) Why do rocket types concentrate on Newtonian (solid body) physics and ignore gasses in a vacuum?

5) How does a rocket move if it never expends any energy? Liquid fuel = potential energy. Accelerated gasses = kinetic energy. Pressure against ship = potential Energy. A rocket is like a dollar you never get to spend, you just keep turning nickels into dimes and back again while someone steals the pennies.

Before you try to answer above questions, bear in mind the following, also :

Space is not only a vacuum, it is also absolutely stone cold. There's nothing.

Both P (pressure) and T (temperature) are nearly zero. At least, that's what most of the sciences agree upon, hopefully also the science unspoiled by NASA.

The ideal gas law P * V = n * R * T describes the key factors.
P = almost 0
T = almost 0
R = non existent (no gases in a vacuum, only solids with such low T)
V = almost infinite (floating molecules into space)
n = ?

IN SHORT (Rockets can't work in a vacuum of space)
In short you still haven't addressed my question which shows that rockets must work in space.

If you wish to assert that they don't you need to tell us how the gas accelerates.

You sure love to run off on tangents, all while avoiding a very simple question.

Before you start asking us a bunch of questions, you should really answer my very simple question.

Again, how does the gas accelerate? Does it push off the rocket? Does it just use pure magic? Or does it not accelerate and instead is magically contained inside an open container exposed to a vacuum?

1) What is the formula for work/force/thrust done by a rocket in a vacuum?
They are the same formulas for work/force/thrust in an atmosphere.

2) What about Free Expansion/the Joule-Thompson effect? How does that affect rocket propulsion?
No, because Joule-Thompson only applies to a closed system.  A rocket engine working in space is not a closed system.

3) If the formula for work done by gas is W = P x V how does a gas do work when pressure is 0?
Pressure volume work only applies to a closed system and a rocket engine working in space still isn't a closed system.

4) Why do rocket types concentrate on Newtonian (solid body) physics and ignore gasses in a vacuum?
Why do you ignore the fact that gasses have mass, and therefore are aptly represented by Newtonian physics?

5) How does a rocket move if it never expends any energy?
From what I've seen of rocket launches, quite a lot of energy is expended by the rocket.

Liquid fuel = potential energy. Accelerated gasses = kinetic energy.
How does potential get converted into kinetic energy?

Pressure against ship = potential Energy.
Huh?  Please explain.

A rocket is like a dollar you never get to spend, you just keep turning nickels into dimes and back again while someone steals the pennies.
Sorry, but that makes no sense whatsoever.

Before you try to answer above questions, bear in mind the following, also :

Space is not only a vacuum, it is also absolutely stone cold. There's nothing.
Which means that there should be nothing to oppose the acceleration of the exhaust gasses.

Both P (pressure) and T (temperature) are nearly zero. At least, that's what most of the sciences agree upon, hopefully also the science unspoiled by NASA.

The ideal gas law P * V = n * R * T describes the key factors.
P = almost 0
T = almost 0
R = non existent (no gases in a vacuum, only solids with such low T)
V = almost infinite (floating molecules into space)
n = ?
The rocket engine introduces its own gasses into the environment of the combustion chamber in the form of aerosolized liquid oxidizer and fuel which are then ignited.  The chemical reaction of the burning fuel released a great deal of heat energy which expands and accelerates the resulting gasses.  The rate of the combustion and gas acceleration are controlled by the rate of flow of the propellants and the shape of the rocket engine.  Not really sure why that's so hard to understand.

That bit of gobbledegook is worth a Quantum Eraser Medal of Honour for the most pseudoscientifically irrelevant trash of the year!

And how does all that translate into thrust on the rocket?

Quote from: cikljamas
This effect should last until the rocket runs out of fuel or the air becomes thin enough so that the hydraulic jump point is far enough away from the ship to be negligible.
How do you explain the thrust of a rocket engine increasing as the outside pressure decreases?

Quote from: cikljamas
Now, i've got a few questions for you :

1) What is the formula for work/force/thrust done by a rocket in a vacuum?
Easy! Thrust = (exhaust velocity) x (mass flow rate) + (exhaust area) x (exhaust pressure - outside pressure)

Quote from: cikljamas
2) What about Free Expansion/the Joule-Thompson effect? How does that affect rocket propulsion?
It's irrelevant because the expansion of the gases has done no work on the overall system.

Here is a question and answer in the StackExchange/Physics Forum:
Quote
Rocket/Thrust/Gas/Free Expansion of Gas (https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/91789/rocket-thrust-gas-free-expansion-of-gas)
Q:
We know, the rockets in space use Newton's 3rd law to increase their velocity and hence move. What I don't understand is how it is possible in space aka vacuum-state without air? From what I know, Joule's "Free Expansion of Gas" says that free-expansion compresses the gas and is therefore "affected" by vacuum so it can't make the rocket move as the gas will have zero press/force. Could someone please explain me how rockets do really work and the above-mentioned statement?

Actually, please have a look at this site: http://cluesforum.info/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1632 (http://cluesforum.info/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1632)

Note: The site appears to include some conspiracy theory thingummies, but made me wonder anyway.
<< Read the link for some comments on the question. >>

A#1:
If someone ever says "free expansion does no work" all they mean is that it does no work on the vacuum, which is pretty obvious in retrospect. This is because 19th century experimenters and 21st century high schools find it easiest to talk about gas properties in terms of pistons pushing on containers of gas. If the piston is replaced by nothingness, well clearly no work will be extracted from the system.

This doesn't mean the gas doesn't do anything. Think of it this way: First, you have a closed container, sitting in vacuum and containing a gas with some nonzero pressure P inside. The force on the walls is the same in all directions, no matter the shape of the container, but for simplicity you can picture it as a cube with side length s. Each wall will have a force P s2 pushing on it.

Now remove one wall. There will no longer be any force acting on it (your "free expansion" principle), but until the gas is fully evacuated there will be a force on the opposite wall. So your container has a net force in the opposite direction from the gas expulsion lasting for some time. Momentum is conserved; rockets work.
This might help:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/uho1fzo812sw95p/Expansion%20into%20Space%20-%20box%20closed.png?dl=1)
With the box closed the gas at pressure, P1,
is pressing on all sides of the box as on the diagram above.

But when the right side is removed there is no longer any force on the  right side
of the box but during the expansion there is still a force on the left side of the box.

Hence, while no work is done on the vacuum, the box does receive an impluse to the left.

Quote from: cikljamas
3) If the formula for work done by gas is W = P x V how does a gas do work when pressure is 0?
Because no one says that W = P x V is the work done by a gas.
Try W = P x ΔV but even then no one says that W = P x ΔV is the only way gas can do work.

If you think that explain how steam or gas turbines work.

Quote from: cikljamas
4) Why do rocket types concentrate on Newtonian (solid body) physics and ignore gasses in a vacuum?
They do not "ignore gasses in a vacuum"!

Quote from: cikljamas
5) How does a rocket move if it never expends any energy? Liquid fuel = potential energy. Accelerated gasses = kinetic energy. Pressure against ship = potential Energy. A rocket is like a dollar you never get to spend, you just keep turning nickels into dimes and back again while someone steals the pennies.
The rocket does expend a tremendous amount of energy!
     Propellant = potential energy,
     burning propellant -> thermal energy,
     thermal energy causes expansion (liquid or solid propellant turned into high-temperature gasses) and
     the rocket nozzle turns those high-temperature gasses into lower temperature extremely high velocity gasses - kinetic energy!

Quote from: cikljamas
Before you try to answer above questions, bear in mind the following, also :
Space is not only a vacuum, it is also absolutely stone cold. There's nothing.
If a perfect vacuum is "nothing" so doesn't even have a temperature.
The temperature of a near-vacuum is simply a measure of the average thermal energy of the gasses in it but is not a measure of the heat in it.

But that is completely irrelevant!

Quote from: cikljamas
Both P (pressure) and T (temperature) are nearly zero. At least, that's what most of the sciences agree upon, hopefully also the science unspoiled by NASA.
Sure, P is "P (pressure) and T (temperature) are nearly zero" but why bring NASA into it?
Robert Goddard, the German rocket scientists, including Wernher Von Braun and the Russian rocket scientists after WWII all knew that quite independently of NASA!

And NASA knows this type of science far far better than YOU seem to - maybe you should take some notice sometime.

Quote from: cikljamas

P = almost 0, T = almost 0, R = non existent (no gases in a vacuum, only solids with such low T), V = almost infinite (floating molecules into space), n = ?

Why is that even relevant?
There is no vacuum within the rocket engine nor in the exhaust plume and you, yourself, gave limits on haw fast that could diffuse into space.

All this boils down to the usual rocket thrust equation being quite accurate and has been shown to allow rocket thrust to be calculated for decades and long before you nemesis, NASA, came into existence!

Whether or not rockets can work in a vacuum is not a question of probabilities or philosophy.  It's a practical question that can be definitively answered by putting a rocket engine into a vacuum chamber and testing to see if it works.

There's apparently a super large vacuum chamber that a bowling ball and feather were dropped in.
Imagine a small rocket in that massive space. That would certainly sort the wheat from the chaff.
Obviously it would have to be viewed in real time by impartial witnesses and also having a nice big container of water in there to turn to ice, plus a nice big balloon that will expand, just to prove the thing is what they say it is.

Because putting a rocket in a little glass box or tube is certainly not going to prove anything of moving a rocket in a so called vacuum.

You would still have the conspiracy nutters rejecting it, claiming that as soon as the rocket ignited it was no longer a vacuum.
Or they would appeal to the fact that rockets don't instantly gain their full thrust that it shows they don't work in a vacuum.
You also contaminate the vacuum chamber.

Obviously it would have to be viewed in real time by impartial witnesses
And unless it was you, their impartiality would be rejected and they would be dismissed as shills.
So that idea would be useless.

also having a nice big container of water in there to turn to ice
So you can then claim it can't be a vacuum because a vacuum would sublimate the ice?
You are also asking again for them to intentionally contaminate their chamber.
Why would they do that?

plus a nice big balloon that will expand
Again to say it isn't a real vacuum?

Both of those show that there is a significant amount of gas inside the chamber.
It would also be quite easy to fake a large balloon and a bucket of ice.

Because putting a rocket in a little glass box or tube is certainly not going to prove anything of moving a rocket in a so called vacuum.
That's right. Simple physics does.
Like clearly shown with my question.
If you have a tank with gas inside it in a vacuum, and you then open the tank, what happens?

As I have explained before, the only rational option is that the gas leaves the tank. This means that it accelerates. This means that it has a force applied to it which causes an equal and opposite reactionary force which accelerates the rocket.
This PROVES that rockets must work in a vacuum.

If you reject that, then the result will vary depending on which part you reject.
For example, you can claim that the gas can magically be held inside the open tank, exposed to a vacuum. That directly contradicts so much easily observed reality. If that was the case wind wouldn't exist. Gas would not work anything like it does.
If you reject it needing a force to accelerate, then the same applies to the rocket and the rocket can work in a vacuum as it doesn't need a force to accelerate.
If you reject it resulting in an equal and opposite reaction, then the rocket doesn't need to push off anything.

There is literally no justification for the claim that rockets can't work in a vacuum, but plenty for the fact that rockets do work in a vacuum.


Who is afraid of the truth???
You.

You have repeatedly avoided a very simple question which exposes the dishonesty of your claim.
It exposes the truth that rockets DO work in a vacuum.
You can't answer it because you can't handle the truth.

If you aren't afraid of the truth, then answer the question:
We start with the hot gas inside the combustion chamber of the rocket. It has just been burnt. It is currently moving with the rocket, with the chamber having a hole connecting to the nozzle and then to the vacuum of space.
What happens?
Do you disagree that the gas will escape and instead think it will magically remain inside the open container exposed to a vacuum?
Do you disagree that the gas has mass?
Do you disagree that the gas must accelerate?
Do you disagree that the gas requires a force to accelerate it?
Do you disagree that a force requires an equal and opposite force and an interaction with another body?
Do you disagree that the rocket is the only other body?

The water would boil off, not freeze.
Initially it would boil.
As it boils it will cool down due to evaporative cooling.
This will eventually cool it down enough to freeze it.
However even once frozen it will still continue to produce water vapour, sublimating due to the vacuum.

If you start with water at 25 C, in order to cool it down to 0 C and freeze it, it would take ~438 kJ/kg of energy to be removed.
In order to have the water boil, it takes 2257 kJ/kg of energy.

So as a simple approximation, as it cools, 1 kg will boil and 5.2 kg will freeze, or roughly 80% will freeze while roughly 20% boils off.
After that it will continue to sublimate and cool.

Yes no?

He rolls backwards by his mass loss opposite reaction force.
You fe claim not true, but that he is pushing against air.

If you draw a line force diagram guy-ball-air-wall then what would happen if you replaced wall with sceptis head?

Guy-ball-air-sceptihead.

Does the air force only act in one direction?
Would scepti feel the air pressure of the ball approaching his face?
You should try this experiment.

No, you are afraid of the truth.
If I was afraid of the truth then why I am sticking to a single issue which you need to repeatedly avoid?
Why am I not repeatedly avoiding such a simple question?
Why am I not running off on tangents with basically nothing to do with the topic at hand?

It is quite clear that you are the one who is afraid of the truth.
If you weren't afraid, you would stay on topic and address the issues raised.

This is the question :
No, it isn't.
That has absolutely nothing to do with rockets working in a vacuum.

Now, i ask again :

Now, given the laws of objective probabilities, tell me, is it more likely that people like me (so called conspiracy theorists) are 99 % right (choose any topic you want), and that people like you (main stream stupidity believers) were/are/going to be 99 % plainly wrong (and so - 99 times out of 100 cases - proven outright liars) or is it more likely that the opposite is true???
And my answer remains the same, you are wrong.
It is vastly more likely that an opposite is true, that you will be wrong the vast majority of the time and those who accept reality (including mainstream science) will be right most of the time.

This thread is one such example, where those who say rockets do not work in a vacuum, are wrong, while those accepting mainstream science and by extension reality are correct in saying that they do work in a vacuum.


Again, if what you were saying is true, and that you were correct, you would have answered my question by now and told everyone here what would happen to the pressurised tank with an opening in a vacuum.

So what do you think it does?
Do you think the gas stays inside the tank?
Or do you think it leaves it, because if it leaves, all rational thought indicates the rocket will be accelerated as well, and thus that rockets will work in a vacuum.

Of course it doesn't heat boil. Boiling is the rising of vapour bubbles through the liquid. It gives the same appearance as if the water were on the stove. Boil. Not gets hot.

The lab guy on a roller platform throwing a ball at the wall.
He rolls backwards by his mass loss opposite reaction force.
You fe claim not true, but that he is pushing against air.
Yes no?

No.

He isn't pushing just air...

He is pushing off the ball, which in turn is now pushing off the air...

I can sit quite comfortably in my very freewheeling chair or even stand on an even more freewheeling skateboard...

If I push a volleyball the way a guy pushes a medicine ball, I go nowhere...

If I push a medicine ball, of course I am going to move...

Rockets don't work in a vacuum...reason?

There is no "space."

End of story...
So you can’t push off a volley ball but the mass of the medicine ball plays no roll?

See the problem?

A previous example was also asked if these deniers believe figure skaters exist.
When a skater pulls their arms in, do they get spin faster because they changed their moment of inertia or because they flapped their arms and pushed off the air to spin faster?

Yes, I see the problem, you aren't describing reality.
Try pushing away the medicine ball, but still holding onto it. See if you go far.
Now do it with actually ejecting it, you will find you actually move a decent amount.

You don't need a wall behind a rocket.

Perhaps you can answer the question I raised before:
What happens to the gas in the rocket exposed to a vacuum?
Does it just stay with the rocket, even though it is exposed to vacuum, or does it accelerate?
If it accelerates, does that require a force?
If that requires a force does that require it to push off another object?
What object other than the rocket is there for it to push off?

If it remains inside the rocket, how?
If it doesn't require a force, why should the rocket?
If it doesn't need it to push off another object, why should the rocket?
If there is another object, why can't the rocket push off it?

Wtf does a skater increasing his speed in the confines of earth's atmoplane have to do with ejected matter?

Ill combine.
The problem here is you dont understand physics.

Both throiwng a ball and spinning examples have to do with change in velocity and a change in mass/ distribution and NEITHER has to do with pushing off the air which you claim is how a rocket works.

In JackBs comment - if you held the medball or vball nothing really happens - and is because you as a single pair didnt change mass or change velocity = no motion.
But if you threw the ball, EITHER BALL, the force would be the propotional to the weight of the ball.
You dont notice the vball much because it doesnt weigh much.

The skaters angular momentum changes when she pulls her arms in and NOT by pushing her arms off the air.
She still weighs the same but by concentrating her mass to center - decreasing her radius - means her massxradius^2:angular momentum ratio changes.
And if you have any understanding of basic physics math you can figure out the next step of the solution from here...

But probably not - if the angular momentum remains the same but the lqdy changed her moment of inertia, then her angular velocity will increase to compensate.
But this probabpy above your head.



So
You next question back you should next ask me why the medball experiment would result in you getting hit in the face if TomB were to throw it at you.

I suppose you would not believe your own eyes if you were alive in the 60's and witnessed the Apollo lauches and through a telescope, the rockets leaving the earth's atmosphere and continuing through the vacuum.

Unsurprisingly, most of your comments contradict each other, on the one hand you consign any scientific analysis of the moon as propaganda yet you use Van Allen's analysis of radiation belts as the biblical truth. Can you prove that the Van Allen belt exists as you say ? NASA have proved that for you anyway, in fact it was they who discovered the 3rd belt further out by the use of satellite probes and flight telementary during moon missions.

You state that Astronauts couldn't have stored enough O2 for the journey, but they only spent 6 days in space and had pressurised tanks in all stages, including landers. Apollo 11 only spent 2 hours on the moon, walkers fuelled by O2 from the lander module. You're right, it was tight and for many missions they breathed pure oxygen (less weight) They had a backup system of perchlorate candles. These are actually metal canisters full of lithium perchlorate. When the astronaut pulls a pin, it ignites a chemical reaction that produces oxygen.

But all this NASA propaganda conspiracy theory does little justice to the memory of the many international people (and animals) that died trying to get to the moon.

This has to be willful ignorance. Nothing else can explain it.

You throw a ball foward. The ball moves through the atmosphere. You move backwards. Yet you claim it is the action of the ball hitting the atmosphere that makes you moving against the atmosphere that moves you.

Exhaust gasses move out of a rocket. They move through (THROUGH) the atmosphere. The rocket moves in the opposite direction. Yet you claim the exhaust gases hitting the atmosphere and by implication rebounding off it is what makes the rocket move in the opposite direction. How do the gas molecules moving through and displacing the air molecules push against those air molecules to then push against the rocket to move the rocket in the opposite direction? Can you draw a diagram to explain this?

Or will Scepti drive us off on a tangent by copy-pasting reams from other people's research thay have absolutely nothing to do with the question but because he can cherry pick one line that he can twist to imply what he wants to believe?

Or with Dutchy and Lackey waive it all away and claim NASA lies, pissing on the achievements of thousands of people who dedicated their lives to making these things work as they actually do?

Indeed, rockets are jets (which is why the Jet Propulsion Lab works with rockets) and neither push against the atmosphere to move..  The primary difference is the source of the reaction mass.  A gas turbine engine uses the atmosphere as its primary source of reaction mass (the burning fuel provides a relatively small amount of reaction mass) while a rocket must carry every bit of its reaction mass (fuel and oxidizer).

Different masses, same size.  With the same surface area, they push against the air the same amount.  Yet the reaction from tossing the different masses is different.  (Because, you know, f=ma.)  Therefore, the propulsion is not a matter of pushing against the air.

No, it seems that the fact the exhaust has mass sufficient to provide enough resistance for the rocket to generate the sufficient thrust to propel the rocket forwards as a result of the effort to toss it away from it is purposefully ignored and otherwise obfuscated by the disingenuous FE adherents in this thread.

But thanks for admitting the air has nothing to do with it and instead it is the MASS of the medicine ball.

Aside from intakes, there is no differentiating between how a rocket moves through the atmosphere and a jet engine moves through the atmosphere.
You mean the main part which prevents a jet engine from operating in a vacuum, the fact that it needs to take in air as a source of oxidant, while a rocket has its own oxidant and thus doesn't need to suck in air?

Both (i.e. a pure jet engine, not a turbofan; and a rocket) operate by expelling gas at high speed which creates a reactionary force pushing the engine forwards. The source of thrust does not need the air.

If you wish to disagree, then why not answer my question(s).
What happens if you take a tank (rocket) of compressed air into a vacuum and then remove the valve such that the tank is exposed to the vacuum?

The only rational thought process to answer this question goes something like this:
The high pressure air exposed to the vacuum will move towards the vacuum.
This will result in the gas accelerating.
This requires a force.
This requires another object to push off which also has a force applied.
The only other object available is the tank (rocket).
This means the tank (rocket) must have a force applied to it.
This means the tank (rocket) will accelerate.
This means rockets will work in a vacuum.

If you don't want to answer the question, but still disagree, exactly which point along that line of reasoning do you disagree with? What do you think is reality instead?

You guys all jumped the gun.
Theres something funny about this specific line of thinking.

The medball has more mass but some how the volume creates an "air factor" that allows him to push off.
What does mass have to do with air?

And if the reason there is reaction is because the medball weighs more, how do these statements work together? -
  1. "Mass is not dependent on size"
  2. "the claim is the medicine ball occupies enough space"

Ill reword -
  1.  "Mass is not dependent on [volume]"
  2.  "The claim is the med ball has enough [volume]"

So its your claim that volume causes the med ball to move, not mass.

As the balls have the same displacement of air should they not move your skateboard the same amount?
What are the results?
And why?
Good example.

There is decidedly air reacting to the surface area of the beachball.

That serves to provide some resistance against the force of you pushing it.

A medicine ball of the same size?

More weight, serving in effect as a WALL that you are pushing off of when you hurl it.

It is not the matter of ejection of the medicine ball from your grasp that is causing you to go in the opposite direction.

It is the force of your arms pushing against the medicine ball, serving as a temporary wall that is causing you to go the other way.

It is not the matter of ejection of the medicine ball from your grasp that is causing you to go in the opposite direction.
If it is when you hurl it, then it is ejecting it.
If it is just acting as a wall, then you should be able to have it remain where it is while you go moving, or remain holding onto it.

The simple fact is that you cannot.

It is the force of your arms pushing against the medicine ball, serving as a temporary wall that is causing you to go the other way.
Sure, the force to accelerate it and eject it.
If you keep it with you, that doesn't happen.

And this is just like the force of the nozzle pushing against the rocket exhaust which serves as a "temporary wall" that causes it to go the other way.

So rockets still can work in a vacuum.

Like I said, if you wish to disagree you really need to highlight just which point you think it breaks down at:
The high pressure air exposed to the vacuum will move towards the vacuum.
This will result in the gas accelerating.
This requires a force.
This requires another object to push off which also has a force applied.
The only other object available is the tank (rocket).
This means the tank (rocket) must have a force applied to it.
This means the tank (rocket) will accelerate.
This means rockets will work in a vacuum.

Ok, I think I see what's going on.  Yes, pushing against the medicine ball will act as a "wall" of sorts and push you backwards.  However, once your arms are fully extended, there is no more push and the "wall" will immediately stop your backward movement.  However, if you were to push the "wall" and then let go, you would continue moving backwards.  This is what we are talking about when we say "ejecting" the reaction mass.

Edit:
To carry the "wall" analogy a bit further, consider this.  It's agreed that a medicine ball is much more substantial than a volley ball or beach ball and will therefore provide significantly more reaction for the same push.  How substantial is the atmosphere?  How hard can you push against the atmosphere before it just moves out of the way?  Ponder that riddle the next time you go for a walk.

No one is going to tell me that the mass of rocket fuel remains the same once it is ignited and released from a closed system.
No, I'm pretty literally all sane people that have any idea what they are talking about will tell you that.

It's this little thing called conservation of mass. A very well established law of physics.

Sure, technically there is a tiny change due to the release in energy, but that change is so insignificant it can easily be ignored.
For example, for a liquid oxygen/liquid hydrogen rocket, it is roughly 16 MJ / kg of energy released.
This will result in a change in mass of roughly 1.8 * 10^-13 kg/kg.
i.e. basically nothing.

Just to make it clear, the mass of rocket fuel remains the same once it is ignited and released from a closed system.

If you wish to disagree, tell us where the extra mass goes or comes from?

What closed system?
A rocket is not a closed system.
As it ejects matter (i.e. exhaust) it is an open system.
The closed system would include the exhaust and thus the exhaust would remain a part of it.

The mass of the gas does not change when it becomes exhaust.
The mass of the rocket+fuel does as it has part of its mass ejected.

You have provided no basis for your claim that mass of the rocket fuel magically changes when the fuel is burnt and released.

Do you think releasing the medicine ball magically changes its mass?
If not, why suggest such a thing for rockets?

One where the fuel, before and after being ignited and burnt is part of the system, or one where the fuel, before and after being ignited and burnt is not part of the system.

Mass of rocket + fuel after ignition but before ejection remains constant.

Once fuel is ejected then mass of rocket and fuel decreases BUT the mass of rocket + fuel + ejected fuel still remains constant. Conservation momentum over the rocket + fuel + ejected fuel demands that the rocket therefore accelerates in the opposite direction to ejected fuel.

No air required.

That isn't a definition.  Also, different scientific disciplines often define certain words differently that the rest of the world, and sometimes even other scientific disciplines.  That's why context is so important.

If you want, you can define the entire universe as a closed system, and therefore mass is conserved after the exhaust leaves the rocket.  Or, you can define an open system that consists of just the rocket and propellant where mass is not conserved as the propellant is expended.

No one mentioned the necessity of air for rocket fuel.
Except I did, when pointing out the distinction between a jet engine and a rocket engine.
A rocket caries the oxidiser with it, which is often referred to as part of the fuel.

For example, one common rocket fuel is hydrolox. This is a combination of hydrogen and oxygen, where the oxygen is the oxidant and the hydrogen is the reductant.
But as well as this common setup of an oxidiser and reductant, there are also mono-propellants which are a single chemical compound which decompose and thus there is no separate oxidiser and reductant.
And there are also cold gas thrusters, which just use compressed gas as fuel.

:...BUT the mass of rocket + fuel + ejected fuel still remains constant."
Wrong.
If you wish to claim such a massive violation of the laws of physics, tell us where the extra mass goes or were the extra mass comes from.


Exhaust cannot happen into a vacuum, because no more vacuum.
You mean, no perfect vacuum. But no one is suggesting it does.
Instead it happens in the vacuum of space, which still has matter in it.
Ejecting more matter into it wont magically make it not a vacuum, especially as how little is ejected.

So how about you try and address that?

Like I said, what happens with a nice simple rocket?
You have a cold gas thruster, which is just a tank of compressed air, in a vacuum. Not a perfect vacuum, just a normal, real vacuum.
Now, you remove the valve in an instant (if you want something more realistic, it would be connected to a solenoid valve which opens very quickly). So now the tank has a hole in it.
So now you have compressed gas exposed to a vacuum.
What do you think will happen?

I have already explained the only rational course of action which requires that the rocket is accelerated.
In order to rationally think that rockets cannot work in a vacuum, you need to provide an alternative.
Do you think the gas will magically stay in the tank even though there is an opening in it?
Or will it magically accelerate without any force required?

Since the medball vs volleyball is too hard a concept for lackless we can try another example.

The claim is the vball lacks required "size" (he incorrectly meant "weight") to act as a wall to push on the air.

A shotgun slug weighs apprix 2ounces.
1/5th than a vball and way far less than a medball.
But if said slug were "ejected" at a high velocity, would the shooter move back?
If you loaded the vball into a cannon and shot it out at high velocity, would the shooter move back?

Pop the lid and up pops Jack.

The spring is coiled against the underside of Jack and the bottom of the box.

All that's needed is to uncoil it.
Jack's head is pushing the lid. The lid is closed.
Jack's head is holding back that coiled spring with the aid of a closed lid.

Pop the lid and Jack's head is no longer using the lid to resist the coiled spring.
The coiled spring can now push Jack up only if it's attached to the base of the box, which it is. It creates a continuity of the spring as one unit using the base as the springboard/leverage or mere foundation which allows the spring to uncoil against the much less dense Jack, meaning Jack launches into the air until his dense mass hits an equilibrium with the push of the uncoiling spring...and then he fall as the spring collapses, or he sits atop of the spring if it's a much more robust spring.

There's your rocket.
You could use compressed air in a box under Jack and use his head in the same manner as the foundation of the box.
Open the box and Jack launches by using the exact same type of scenario of foundation and compressed air spring like expansion once you allow that expansion to happen by opening the lid.

You could fill Jack up with compressed air and have that hit the foundation to do exactly the same.
In all scenarios you need that foundation. You need a leverage for any forward movement to happen or you simply have zero work.

If you take away a solid foundation then you require some other means of leverage or resistance to force.
Compressed air allows this, as in, in normal atmosphere being used by whatever force is pushed against it to compress it and that compression will expand back towards the force applied against it, creating an equal and opposite reaction. Hence why the medicine ball on a skateboard works to push back a person who throws it against atmosphere and compresses that atmosphere with the amount of force the dense medicine ball can compress it, creating a spring back resistance back onto the person.

Back to Jack in the box.

No matter which way you look at anything you always need a foundation or a resistant counter force against any force applied to it, as I explained above.

In fictional space vacuum you get zero counter force. You get zero resistance. You get zero leverage and the only foundation you could ever have is inside the rocket, both ends, assuming both are shut.
Open one end and you allow expansion of matter against zero resistance.
Inside the rocket you have a foundation, but all your expansion of gases would be happening at the opposite end. The open end.

further expansion can only happen towards the opposite end only when the major expansion happens as the gases leave the craft, meaning there is no push back towards the inner foundation, until the very last molecules that were squashed against it, expand but by that time all of the rest have expanded out against each other (and this is key)...meaning there is no work done at all.

Basically you have a magical rocket in suspended animation.
Naturally this is impossible for rockets to work in space or vacuums but I have to use it to show why.

The sooner people understand how and why atmospheric pressure actually works, the sooner people will understand why rockets and everything really do work.

The way people are told by the so called science world of space rocketry, in terms of how they supposedly work, is clever. It's a clever dupe and mind numb.
Very few people seem willing to question it because the brainwashing has elevated to levels way beyond their ability to even dare question  for fear of ridicule.


Space and ll the gunk we've been schooled into is all well and good if you view it for what it is, which is sci-fi.
To believe it in how we're told, as in as a real thing, then all I can say is, fine...enjoy that fantasy as your reality.

Wrong. It can only hold it up if that is the case. If it wasn't attached to the bottom and instead just held compressed by magic, then when it is released, it will still push the head away.

In all scenarios you need that foundation.
That is a baseless claim you are yet to substantiate in any way, and which has been refuted countless times.
All you need is something to push off. That something you push off doesn't need to have a foundation to push against.
The example of a person throwing a ball on a skateboard proves that.
As the ball is thrown away, they are pushed back.

Compressed air allows this
So the rocket can push against the compressed air in the combustion chamber and nozzle.

Good, with that out of the way, that means rockets work just fine in a vacuum.


If you wish to disagree, feel free to explain what happens to my hypothetical cold gas thruster type rocket in a vacuum:
You have compressed air inside it (and this air has mass), but with an opening on one end, exposed to a vacuum.
What happens?
Does it magically remain inside the tank, even though it is open to a vacuum?
Or does it move, and thus even by your own claims, need something to push off, which when logically followed will result in the rocket being pushed away?


Even if you want to appeal to your expansion nonsense, it isn't expansion without resistance.
The gas is only capable of expanding in one direction, it will then push the obstruction away, just like a bomb pushes shrapnel away while it expands.
If you like, you can consider that rocket as part of the expansion.

Jack in the box.
Pop the lid and up pops Jack.
Why?
The spring is coiled against the underside of Jack and the bottom of the box.

All that's needed is to uncoil it.
Jack's head is pushing the lid. The lid is closed.
Jack's head is holding back that coiled spring with the aid of a closed lid.

Pop the lid and Jack's head is no longer using the lid to resist the coiled spring.

There's your rocket.
Have you ever heard of force = mass x acceleration
And one SpaceX Merlin 1D rocket engine accelerates about 329 kg/s of propellant from 0 m/s to about 2570 m/s every second (relative to the rocket).
That requires a force of 329 x 2570 = 844,959 Newtons or 845 kN.

That is the force that must be applied to that propellant to accelerate it to that velocity and the only source of the force can be the rocket engine.

That is where the thrust of a rocket comes from and that is how it can be generated right from ground level to up into space.

There is absolutely no need to push on anything outside the rocket though, of course, the high velocity propellant moist be ejected at that velocity.

It is far from nonsense. How do you think you can compress air in the first place?
The clue is in the word "compress" and you can't compress anything without making the molecules smaller. And you can't decompress without allowing the same molecules to expand again.

As for the expansion needing resistance. Of course it does. I already explained it.
The reality is, the resistance is not against the rocket, the resistance is against the molecules themselves. The compressed gas now able to expand due to an opening allowing them to do just that.

From that point on it's molecules pushing against molecules. Each row of molecules using the row behind as leverage to push the row in front and so on and so on all down the tank.
All the tank foundation is doing at this particular time is merely acting as a foundation.

The end result in your fictional vacuum would be zero work done other than expansion of molecules which would quickly go dormant as they expand, having nothing else to push because there's no more expansion.

Your rocket couldn't survive that fiction but we have to argue from a point  and scenario of the extremes.
Quote from: JackBlack

No. A bomb works because it is encased and creates an equal and opposite reaction to action inside the casing, meaning it expands inside and creates a massive expanded pressure on the casing walls which shatters the walls at the weakest points.

Your rocket will expand out of one end and that's it, if there's no resistance to that expansion.
Luckily there is resistance. It's called atmospheric pressure.

In fake space there is no atmospheric pressure as we're told and therefore no moving rockets, either.

There is absolutely no need to push on anything outside the rocket though, of course, the high velocity propellant moist be ejected at that velocity.
The very reason why rocket fuel burns like it does is to super expand the atmosphere under and around that flaming thrust.

That super expansion creates a super compression of the wider atmosphere and that super compression reacts by decompressing back against the thrust and creating a foundation and leverage for that thrust as it is ejected and burned every nano second.

The rocket is merely squeezed up just like a hot air balloon is squeezed up.

If the rocket is full of unburned gas or liquid but then burns the gas or liquid externally then the remaining gas or liquid inside the rocket is not going to push in another direction. It's going to be pushed down towards the exit ready to be burned and super expand the atmosphere within that burn.
That massive sort of super expanded like void the burn has created has to be equalised and it does equalise because the super expansion has super compressed the atmosphere around that burn.

Think of it like you standing on a trampoline. Your mass leaves a indent in it due to you being pushed down by above atmosphere against your mass which has also displaced it.

You want to make a bigger indent in that trampoline but the only way you can do it is to use the atmosphere and your energy to create a bigger push.
Basically you bend your legs and use the trampoline as a spring to make you push harder into the atmosphere above, which also acts harder back onto you because you've compressed it more and that compression pushes you back down to that spring foundation, which has also decompressed as you sprung away from it and allowing you to recompress it but with more force, until that trampoline cannot be used much more to create a bigger compression and decompression by deeper indentation.

Now imagine trying to do the very same thing only this time you have a 4x4 foot board strapped to your head like a graduates mortar board and now try and do the very same jump.
You find your jump and resistance to the above atmosphere tries to push your head into your neck.

With a rocket, they're streamlined in order to push through the above atmosphere by ensuring they're shaped to create less resistance to the push from below.

Imagine a trampoline capable of resisting the thrust of a rocket.
The rocket stands on the trampoline and needs to use it to push through the atmosphere.

Imagine the thrust of burning gases against the trampoline. It pushes the trampoline down and expands the springs which ensures the trampoline bed gets pushed down more and more but that trampoline is now at a point where it ready to decompress against that rocket mass and energy.
The rocket is them sprung into the air but in this case it is like having trampoline after trampoline doing the same thing as each one springs back against the burn.

Just transfer that trampoline to atmosphere and there's your rocket in reality using it's own fuel as energy against a compressed air foundation/leverage/resistance.

There's none of this action and reaction happening inside any rocket to push it up. It's nonsense and should be seen as just that.

If denpressure's underlying principle is that gravity doesnt exist ans the atmoplane pushes things down, then why do we see these two phenomena?:

1.  If the air above my head pushes me down with the weight of my weight, wouldnt my head hair (that which is of highest displacement on my body) be seen as perma-flattened?

2.  When air bubbles rise up in the water, are they flat on top?   Or flat on bottom?   The air bubble has a water column above it pushing down on it.  Water is a fluid and will have near similar push down properties (in behaviour) of the air in the atmoplane.

If you take away a solid foundation then you require some other means of leverage or resistance to force.
Compressed air allows this, as in, in normal atmosphere being used by whatever force is pushed against it to compress it and that compression will expand back towards the force applied against it, creating an equal and opposite reaction. Hence why the medicine ball on a skateboard works to push back a person  who throws it against atmosphere and compresses that atmosphere with the amount of force the dense medicine ball can compress it, creating a spring back resistance back onto the person.





The ladder guy video and my whole discussion with lackless revolves around your two's inability to undedstand physics.

The mass (medball) has to be ejected from the being or else there is no action-reaction.
If the skater does a throwing motion, but holds onto the ball, he goes no where.
Ladder guy attempts to jump but endes up just moving his legs and goes no where - now if his legs detached while kicking, he would move.

So now ill post the questions that  lackless refuses to answer, to you -

If you stood in front of lackless and he threw a med ball at your face, would that med ball create a push of air to push you back?

What if it were a volleyball of similar dimension?

It is far from nonsense.
Is that why you are completely unable to justify it in any way, nor answer very simple questions which show it to be wrong?

How do you think you can compress air in the first place?
By reducing the volume. It is quite basic fluid mechanics.

The clue is in the word "compress" and you can't compress anything without making the molecules smaller.
And more nonsense.
You don't need to make the molecules smaller. All you need to do is reduce the space between them.
In fact, one of the limitations of the ideal gas law is that real gasses aren't ideal because they have a real, physical size of the atoms/molecules.
One of the drawbacks of this is that it can only be compressed to a certain extent before it becomes a liquid or a solid.

This makes no sense with your nonsense.

All the tank foundation is doing at this particular time is merely acting as a foundation.
Which is pushed by the molecules.
If it wasn't, the molecules can't push off it and thus can't expand.


No. A bomb works because it is encased and creates an equal and opposite reaction to action inside the casing
Only while it is encased. As soon as it cracks, you have your opening and according to you, that should mean just free expansion with no work.
That would mean bombs should just push out air, never shrapnel.


Luckily there is resistance. It's called atmospheric pressure.
No, it's call the mass of the exhaust.
That needs a force to accelerate it.
That is the resistance that the rocket needs to push off.


Remember, your entire objection is that you can't simply have the rocket push off nothing to move. That same applies to the gas inside the rocket.
You can't simply have it push off nothing to move.
It needs to push off something, which means it needs to push something.

Again, a rational line of reasoning goes like this:
The high pressure gas is exposed to a vacuum and thus will move to go into/towards the vacuum.
This means the gas is accelerating as it is changing its velocity.
This means it will need to have a force applied to it in order to accelerate.
This means it must push off something and apply a force to something.
The only available object is the rocket.
This means the gas must push off the rocket.
This means the rocket will be pushed by the expanding gas.
This means that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

Just which point do you disagree with here and why?
Do you claim a complete defiance of so much observed about gas and instead which to claim that even when exposed to a vacuum the gas will magically remain inside the tank?
Do you claim that even though it is accelerating to move out of the rocket, it somehow isn't accelerating, a pure nonsense claim which contradicts itself? (The same applies to the last point)
Do you claim that even though it is accelerating it doesn't need a force applied to it? Again, a complete defiance of physics, this time with what is known about motion. Perhaps more importantly, a key part of what you are relying upon to falsely assert that rockets can't work, as if objects (like gas) can accelerate without a force applied, why can't a rocket?
The latter points (except the last) are quite similar, in that rejecting them means rejecting quite well established physics, backed up by mountains of evidence which you are relying upon to claim rockets can't work. If you reject any of them, it would mean that you are rejecting your arguments against rockets not being able to work.

If you can't justify a problem with that line of reasoning, you have no case.

The answer to "can rockets fly in a vacuum?" is a pretty simple one.  Yes, they can.  Apply the law of conservation of momentum to rocket and the gases it will exhaust.  You will see fairly quickly that as mass moves out the back of the rocket, the rocket itself must move in a forward direction. 

The statement "combustion can't happen in space" really depends on your definition of combustion.  If you are defining combustion as a reaction which requires oxygen from the environment as a reactant, this statement would be correct.  Would you consider the termite reaction to be combustion?  It does not require oxygen from the environment since the substances being used are self-oxidzing.  It would probably be more accurate to think of the reaction in a rocket engine as a redox reaction since the fuels being used self-oxidize without needing an external oxygen source.

Henceforthwith, what am I, the wheeled medicine ball tosser compressing against? How is my tossing of the medicine ball somehow compressing the entire earth's atmosphere and pushing me back? Do I have that much of an effect on all things on the planet by just touching or tossing them?

If I were inside a room, would I be 'compressing' off a wall? If I were outside, would I be compressing off of a cloud?

How do you calculate this force, this 'compression' force? The springback, if you will.

No because your hair sort equalises  because atmosphere is all over and under it, unlike your dense body which is pushing into atmosphere by it's own dense mass and also that same dense mass displacing that amount of atmosphere.

If the skater does a throwing motion, but holds onto the ball, he goes no where.
Yes, if the skater holds onto the ball then the action and equal and opposite reaction comes into play, meaning an equal atmospheric reaction to the medicine ball in a push forward or push back = zero gain.

Throwing the medicine ball allows the atmosphere to create a barrier by the medicine ball and your energy compressing it. It creates a leverage.
If there was no atmosphere there would be no leverage and no opposite motion.

If you threw the medicine ball at me as I was stood at the end of a tube of dimensions that were just slightly larger than the medicine ball, then i'd likely have my head pushed back if you threw it hard enough, due to the air it compresses in that tube and the resulting air rush behind the medicine ball allowing it to create that compression by what it displaces of it's own mass of atmosphere.
The same would happen if you threw it at me in open air but the air hitting my face would be minimal due to the area allowing dissipation of the medicine ball's dense mass of air displacement.

Quote from: Themightykabool
What if it were a volleyball of similar dimension?
The volley ball would be extremely minimal due to it already being mostly air and a simple outer skin of dense mass....which....if you were to take away the air and mould it into a denser ball, it would likely be as small as a dogs rubber ball.

1.  If the air above my head pushes me down with the weight of my weight, wouldnt my head hair (that which is of highest displacement on my body) be seen as perma-flattened?
No because your hair sort equalises  because atmosphere is all over and under it, unlike your dense body which is pushing into atmosphere by it's own dense mass and also that same dense mass displacing that amount of atmosphere.
You do realize that there is already a word for dense mass displacing less dense atmosphere, don't you?  That word is "buoyancy".  It's a well understood phenomenon and it requires gravity so that the more dense mass knows which way to go.

Throwing the medicine ball allows the atmosphere to create a barrier by the medicine ball and your energy compressing it. It creates a leverage.
If there was no atmosphere there would be no leverage and no opposite motion.

Wrong.

Instead of just making stuff up, have you considered learning how all this stuff really works?

It doesn’t just apply to rocketry, the same rules of motion, pressure systems, fluid dynamics, etc. were used to create all the modern technology around you.

Of course you don’t deny the existence of cars, aeroplanes, power stations, refrigerators, washing machines, etc, etc.  Yet they all depend on the same fundamental science as rockets do.

If you were right, then millions of physicists and engineers would be wrong and basically nothing would work.  Since things do work, we can safely assume that the people who actually bothered to study these things are right, and that you, spouting whatever pops into your head are wrong.

Try picking up a text book or do an online course.

It is far from nonsense.
Is that why you are completely unable to justify it in any way, nor answer very simple questions which show it to be wrong?
I do justify it. You not accepting that does not mean anything.

Quote from: JackBlack
How do you think you can compress air in the first place?
By reducing the volume. It is quite basic fluid mechanics.
You can't reduce a volume unless you reduce a container.
To compress air you are simply compressing the molecules into smaller size due to that crushing force.

I tried to explain this a while back by using sponge balls as a great analogy.
Get a container and feed sponge balls into it. The more effort you put in to compress, the smaller those sponge balls become and the more of them there is inside the container.

Quite simple really.


Quote from: JackBlack
The clue is in the word "compress" and you can't compress anything without making the molecules smaller.
And more nonsense.
You don't need to make the molecules smaller. All you need to do is reduce the space between them.
There is no space between them. Everything is attached. There is no space between anything. If there was we would not exist and nor would anything else...hence why space is nonsense.

Quote from: JackBlack
In fact, one of the limitations of the ideal gas law is that real gasses aren't ideal because they have a real, physical size of the atoms/molecules.
One of the drawbacks of this is that it can only be compressed to a certain extent before it becomes a liquid or a solid.
Anything compressed enough will become a liquid or a solid. Or a more dense liquid or a more dense solid....And so on.

Quote from: JackBlack
All the tank foundation is doing at this particular time is merely acting as a foundation.
Which is pushed by the molecules.
If it wasn't, the molecules can't push off it and thus can't expand.
The molecules do push but they push off each other.
Each molecule uses the one behind as leverage to push into the one in front...and so on all the way down to a point where compression to expansion does not overcome the resistance of external pressure/compressive resistance.
In the case of space and so called scattered molecules. It's nonsense..

Quote from: JackBlack
No. A bomb works because it is encased and creates an equal and opposite reaction to action inside the casing
Only while it is encased. As soon as it cracks, you have your opening and according to you, that should mean just free expansion with no work.
That would mean bombs should just push out air, never shrapnel.
A bomb will explode if it's encased and allows a burn expansion to shatter the shell which will allow that expansion to not only throw the casing a good distance but will also compress the atmosphere around it and create a massive wave/ripple effect not too dissimilar to throwing a big stone into a pond and seeing the circular ripple effect.

Quote from: JackBlack
Luckily there is resistance. It's called atmospheric pressure.
No, it's call the mass of the exhaust.
That needs a force to accelerate it.
That is the resistance that the rocket needs to push off.
No. The rocket cannot push off its own exhaust. It's exhaust has to hit a barrier. Atmospheric pressure creates this and allows the rocket to move away from it as it super compresses it by expansion which creates a super equal reaction to that action of a compressed force back and creating a perfect leverage..


Quote from: JackBlack
Remember, your entire objection is that you can't simply have the rocket push off nothing to move. That same applies to the gas inside the rocket.
You can't simply have it push off nothing to move.
It needs to push off something, which means it needs to push something.
Yep and atmospheric pressure provides this.

Quote from: JackBlack
Again, a rational line of reasoning goes like this:
The high pressure gas is exposed to a vacuum and thus will move to go into/towards the vacuum.
This means the gas is accelerating as it is changing its velocity.
This means it will need to have a force applied to it in order to accelerate.
This means it must push off something and apply a force to something.
The only available object is the rocket.
Nope. It's the actual gas itself being allowed to expand against a weaker resistant force. In this case it would be extreme low pressure.

Quote from: JackBlack
This means the gas must push off the rocket.
The atmosphere is the stalker against the flame throwing rocket trying to escape it but the atmosphere just keeps on coming back. End result is a perfect fight against equal and opposite reactions of gases. The rocket simply sits atop it all like a rising stick on a fountain.
Quote from: JackBlack
This means the rocket will be pushed by the expanding gas.
Think of it like this.
Imagine you are laid on the floor of a sky divers tube where air rushes in and pushes you up.
What are you doing?
You're not farting against it, you're just basically laying there and riding on that compressed air and the more compression of that air the higher you are pushed.
Now you can't argue that the air alone is keeping you aloft.
Now imagine of you decided to unleash the same amount of air from a tank on you. You add to the compressed air below you and are pushed up higher.
This is what's happening to the rocket.....except, if that rocket wants to advance it has to create a bigger uplift.
It does this by expanding the air to super compress the air around it and force it to rush in with much more strength...by burning the gas..


Quote from: JackBlack
This means that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.
That means that rockets cannot work well in extreme low pressure and absolutely not in a so called vacuum.

Quote from: JackBlack
Just which point do you disagree with here and why?
All of what you say.
Quote from: JackBlack
Do you claim a complete defiance of so much observed about gas and instead which to claim that even when exposed to a vacuum the gas will magically remain inside the tank?
Exposed to an extreme low pressure the compressed gas will decompress into that low pressure environment extremely fast due to very little resistive force against its expansion....until the molecules cannot expand into each other anymore....in which case they become dormant....or basically freeze.



Quote from: JackBlack
Do you claim that even though it is accelerating to move out of the rocket, it somehow isn't accelerating, a pure nonsense claim which contradicts itself? (The same applies to the last point)
Initially it would accelerate for a short period. But only against each other.
In a closed container they remain equally compressed.
Breach that container and the molecules closest to the breach will be the first to expand which allows the molecules behind to expand against the first by using the third as leverage....and so on and so on.
They all push out against whatever resistance is external to that breach.



Quote from: JackBlack
Do you claim that even though it is accelerating it doesn't need a force applied to it? Again, a complete defiance of physics, this time with what is known about motion. Perhaps more importantly, a key part of what you are relying upon to falsely assert that rockets can't work, as if objects (like gas) can accelerate without a force applied, why can't a rocket?
The force is the expansion and resistance to that expansion which is compression.
It's a like for like.
If the rocket turns liquid to gas and then to a burn, it's super expanding that fuel.
If the rocket does this against zero resistance to that expanding gas then the rocket goes nowhere.
However, there is always resistance, because atmospheric pressure creates that by being compressed against that expansion of gas/burn.

Quote from: JackBlack
The latter points (except the last) are quite similar, in that rejecting them means rejecting quite well established physics, backed up by mountains of evidence which you are relying upon to claim rockets can't work.
 If you reject any of them, it would mean that you are rejecting your arguments against rockets not being able to work.
Nope.
There are no mountains of evidence for what you're arguing for.
There's mountains of evidence that rockets fly. That's it.
There's zero provable real evidence they fly into space...but plenty of stories that they do.




Quote from: JackBlack
If you can't justify a problem with that line of reasoning, you have no case.
I think I've reasoned quite well and justified my reasoning.
I'm quite happy to accept you don't accept it.

Not flat just slightly misshaped due to being squeezed up.

So whats pushing DOWN?

The mass (medball) has to be ejected from the being or else there is no action-reaction.
If the skater does a throwing motion, but holds onto the ball, he goes no where.
Yes, if the skater holds onto the ball then the action and equal and opposite reaction comes into play, meaning an equal atmospheric reaction to the medicine ball in a push forward or push back = zero gain.

Throwing the medicine ball allows the atmosphere to create a barrier by the medicine ball and your energy compressing it. It creates a leverage.
If there was no atmosphere there would be no leverage and no opposite motion.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Ladder guy attempts to jump but ends up just moving his legs and goes no where - now if his legs detached while kicking, he would move.
Did the ladder collapse?

Quote from: Themightykabool
So now ill post the questions that  lackless refuses to answer, to you -
If you stood in front of lackless and he threw a med ball at your face, would that med ball create a push of air to push you back?
If you threw the medicine ball at me as I was stood at the end of a tube of dimensions that were just slightly larger than the medicine ball, then i'd likely have my head pushed back if you threw it hard enough, due to the air it compresses in that tube and the resulting air rush behind the medicine ball allowing it to create that compression by what it displaces of it's own mass of atmosphere.
The same would happen if you threw it at me in open air but the air hitting my face would be minimal due to the area allowing dissipation of the medicine ball's dense mass of air displacement.

Quote from: Themightykabool
What if it were a volleyball of similar dimension?
The volley ball would be extremely minimal due to it already being mostly air and a simple outer skin of dense mass....which....if you were to take away the air and mould it into a denser ball, it would likely be as small as a dogs rubber ball.

I would imagine then, by your description, bullets to have the same effect?

Hence why the medicine ball on a skateboard works to push back a person who throws it against atmosphere and compresses that atmosphere with the amount of force the dense medicine ball can compress it, creating a spring back resistance back onto the person.

Henceforthwith, what am I, the wheeled medicine ball tosser compressing against? How is my tossing of the medicine ball somehow compressing the entire earth's atmosphere and pushing me back? Do I have that much of an effect on all things on the planet by just touching or tossing them?
It depends how you want to look at it.
Let's make this a bit more simple and I'll leave the rest to you to apply it to your thought bank.
If you were in a massive swimming pool would anything you do in that swimming pool effect the entire pool in some way?


Quote from: Stash
If I were inside a room, would I be 'compressing' off a wall?
Think of the swimming pool.
Quote from: Stash
If I were outside, would I be compressing off of a cloud?
When it's cloudy or clear does the air pressure change?

Quote from: Stash
How do you calculate this force, this 'compression' force? The springback, if you will.
It depends what needs to be calculated, whether it's compressing it or decompressing it.

You even reject the gas leaving the rocket.
So now you say that the gas will remain inside the rocket, even when exposed to vacuum or extreme low pressure?author=sceptimatic link=topic=82434.msg2213997#msg2213997 date=1572962597]
No because your hair sort equalises  because atmosphere is all over and under it, unlike your dense body which is pushing into atmosphere by it's own dense mass and also that same dense mass displacing that amount of atmosphere.
[/quote]
i.e. when we jump we shouldn't be pushed down. We should continue floating up or merely be stopped. Because when we are in mid-air, we have air all over and under us.
And of course, if we go up against a wall, then we should be pushed into that as there isn't the air between us and it. If you say there is still a small amount there to stop it, well don't worry, there is also that between us and the ground, so either it doesn't matter or we shouldn't be pushed to the ground either.

Lets try and keep this discussion to rockets, not your refuted denspressure nonsense.

Throwing the medicine ball allows the atmosphere to create a barrier by the medicine ball and your energy compressing it.
If the air was important you would get the same effect regardless of the mass of the ball. That is not observed.

If there was no atmosphere there would be no leverage and no opposite motion.
So the ball just magically moves away?
But how does that work?
What leverage is there for the ball to push against.
You seem to want to apply your nonsense one way only.
If what you are saying is true, and you need the air to push against, then the ball does not have the air to push against with the human and thus it will go nowhere.

The volley ball would be extremely minimal due to it already being mostly air
That doesn't matter, it still pushes the same amount of air. You can confirm this by pushing them through a tube which has the same radius as the ball, or just slightly larger.
The volume is what is important if it is pushing the air. The mass is what is important if the air has nothing (or very little) to do with it.

I do justify it.
You are yet to justify it in any way. The closest you have come to any justification is repeatedly contradicting yourself as you try to explain different things.

You pretending you have justified it does not mean anything.

To compress air you are simply compressing the molecules into smaller size due to that crushing force.
Repeating the same nonsense and ignoring the explaining that that is blatantly wrong wont help you.
When you compress air you are not compressing the molecules, you are removing part of the void between them.
While each molecule has on average less space, the physical size of the molecules is not shrinking.

An actual analogy would be balls on a pool table. If you shrink the size of the pool table, but keep the same balls on it, you are compressing the gas. It is the empty space between the balls that shrink, not the balls themselves.

Importantly there is a limit to how far you can shrink it. If you shrink it too much you then end up with no more space between the balls at which point you will have compressed it into a liquid and are unable to compress any more.

This is what happens in reality.

If it was just magically compressing molecules, this limit should not exist and you should be able to keep compressing it with it never becoming a liquid.

I tried to explain this a while back by using sponge balls as a great analogy.
By using a completely incorrect analogy.

Note that even with your sponge balls you are still removing the air.
What you are actually doing is changing the shape of the sponge balls so the air is removed from the inside of them.


There is no space between them.
And that remains yet another baseless assertion from you.
You are yet to justify this in any way. You are yet to refute the abundant evidence which shows you are wrong.

Anything compressed enough will become a liquid or a solid.
Only if you accept that you are excluding the free space between the molecules.
If you claim that everything is already connected, then there should be no difference between a liquid and a gas, and no clear boundary.
But that isn't the case.
There is a clear boundary between liquids and gases.
They are very clearly different.

Do you know the distinguishing feature of liquids and gasses?
Gases have a large space between the molecules.

The molecules do push but they push off each other.
And they push off the molecules of the rocket.

Each molecule uses the one behind as leverage to push into the one in front...and so on
i.e. the molecules at the opening of the container push against the molecules next to them as leverage.
Those then push against the ones next to them, and so on.
Eventually this goes all the way down to the rocket, where the molecules against the rocket push against it as leverage.
But then the rocket has no leverage to stop that push and thus gets pushed by those molecules.
In effect all the molecules in the middle are just acting as force carriers. You effectively have the gas molecules at the edge pushing through the intermediary molecules against the rocket.

This means the rocket goes one way, the gas goes the other.

So even using that line of reasoning, ROCKETS STILL WORK!

The only alternative is for there to be nothing to push against and thus the rocket and gas remains where it is.
That means you have compressed gas exposed to a vacuum, doing nothing.

A bomb will explode if it's encased and allows a burn expansion to shatter the shell which will allow that expansion to not only throw the casing a good distance
How?
It is not open. Why doesn't the gas just flow the crack?
The exact same situation is happening with the rocket.
Consider this hypothetical rocket:
You have an explosive contained in a chamber.
You detonate it.
This causes one end of the container to break open. What happens?

Does the air just leak out the crack, or does it force the container away?

No. The rocket cannot push off its own exhaust.
Why not?
You are perfectly happy with objects pushing off the air/gas.
The exhaust is gas. That means that the rocket can push off it.
If they can't, then that rules out all your claims about air.

Yep and atmospheric pressure provides this.
What atmospheric pressure?
We are talking about the rocket in a vacuum.
The only pressure (that is significant) is the air inside the rocket. The air you are claiming the rocket CANNOT push against.

What is there for the air to push off to be able to leave the rocket?

Nope. It's the actual gas itself being allowed to expand
As I stated before, it is only allowed to expand in one direction. This means its expansion will push the object trying to stop it out of the way, just like a bomb.

Quote from: JackBlack
This means the gas must push off the rocket.
The atmosphere
Again, WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A ROCKET IN A VACUUM!
There is no atmosphere.
What is the gas pushing off?

Imagine you are laid on the floor of a sky divers tube where air rushes in and pushes you up.
The closest this has to do with what we are disucssing is that the is air that is compressed below you, with this compressed air pushing you up.
Guess what is inside a rocket?
Compressed air, which by the same reasoning pushes the rocket.


Quote from: JackBlack
Just which point do you disagree with here and why?
All of what you say.
So you reject the idea that gasses will equalise in pressure and instead claim that the gas will remain inside the rocket even when directly exposed to a vacuum/extreme low pressure?

Because it sure seems like you are agreeing with it.
You agree that the gas leaves the rocket.
You agree that this means the gas is accelerating.
You agree that this means that it is pushing against something. Where it is initially the gas next to it which pushes off the gas next to it and so on, until you reach the rocket with the gas pushing against the rocket.

So you are agreeing that the gas is pushing off the rocket, using the rocket as leverage.

This means the rocket is being pushed. So why doesn't it move?

If the rocket does this against zero resistance
You can never have 0 resistance. The gas itself provides resistance.

There are no mountains of evidence for what you're arguing for.
There's mountains of evidence that rockets fly. That's it.
This isn't just discussing rockets. It is very simple physics. Newton's laws of motion.
Action-reaction, etc.
Remember, without these laws you have no reason to say the rocket needs to push off anything to work.
That is entirely based upon the need for it to have a force to accelerate it, with that force requiring it to apply a force to another object and have an equal and opposite force applied to it.

I think I've reasoned quite well and justified my reasoning.
No, you have just repeatedly avoided the issues and contradicted yourself like you do so often.

You are yet to show a single problem with the line of reasoning I provided.
Instead you just stated you reject all of it (without showing any problem), and then proceeded to agree to basically every point.

I'd be like you and simply accepting what I'm schooled into.
It has nothing to do with just accepting what we have been schooled into.
If we were going to do that we would just accept your nonsense.

It has to do with being able to explain reality, including everyday observations, and thus if it is backed up by evidence or not.
What they teach in school is capable of explaining reality and is backed up by evidence. Your nonsense is not. Your nonsense contradicts itself.

And if all of that is too long, this is the key issue for this thread:

You have a simple rocket that looks like this:
(https://i.imgur.com/mP5b3FP.png)
The black is the body of the rocket: Note that it is open at one end.
The red is the high pressure gas inside the rocket.

Now, looking at the left edge of the rocket, it is pushing against the high pressure gas next to it. Can it move as it has this gas to push off? Or can it not, because it would just push against the gas and so on until it got to the other side where there is nothing to push against?

Before answering, we are also looking at the gas at the right edge. It is pushing against the high pressure gas next to it. Can it move as it has this gas to push off? Or can it not, because it would just push against the gas and so on until it got to the other side where there is nothing to push against?

Note: These are of the same form. Either both can move, or neither can.
Which is it?
Can the gas leave the rocket with the rocket being pushed away?
Or are they stuck together because there is nothing to push against?

If you wish to disagree you need to be able to explain why.
Why should the gas be able to leave the rocket when it has nothing to push against (other than the rocket), while the rocket can't leave the gas?

Scepti has steered my previous ponts away from lackless.
Too bad.

But at least we have a new player.

So.
Explain this to us please.

If denpressure's underlying principle is that gravity doesnt exist ans the atmoplane pushes things down, then why do we see these two phenomena?:

1.  If the air above my head pushes me down with the weight of my weight, wouldnt my head hair (that which is of highest displacement on my body) be seen as perma-flattened?
No because your hair sort equalises  because atmosphere is all over and under it, unlike your dense body which is pushing into atmosphere by it's own dense mass and also that same dense mass displacing that amount of atmosphere.
You do realize that there is already a word for dense mass displacing less dense atmosphere, don't you?  That word is "buoyancy".  It's a well understood phenomenon and it requires gravity so that the more dense mass knows which way to go.
Nothing requires gravity because gravity does not exist. I don't need to argue this point any further. Gravity does not exist to me and it's that simple, so by all means use it to argue a point but do not expect me to reply in any other way, except to dismiss it out of hand.
Do you think that buoyancy exists or do you dismiss that out of hand too?

You need to explain what you mean by this before I could even attempt to reply.



i mean by what you describe a ball, going down a tube and exiting the other side.
kind of like a bullet.


If you threw the medicine ball at me as I was stood at the end of a tube of dimensions that were just slightly larger than the medicine ball, then i'd likely have my head pushed back if you threw it hard enough, due to the air it compresses in that tube and the resulting air rush behind the medicine ball allowing it to create that compression by what it displaces of it's own mass of atmosphere.
The same would happen if you threw it at me in open air but the air hitting my face would be minimal due to the area allowing dissipation of the medicine ball's dense mass of air displacement.








your hair sort equalises  because atmosphere is all over and under it, unlike your dense body which is pushing into atmosphere by it's own dense mass and also that same dense mass displacing that amount of atmosphere.

"So whats pushing DOWN?" - Water and atmospheric pressure upon that water.

I'll be waiting.
But remember, this is mainly focusing on a vacuum. So don't draw a diagram of how a rocket works in the atmosphere, draw/indicate exactly what happens with that setup of a rocket in a vacuum (or as you call it extreme low pressure).

You either refuse to understand it or can't. Which one is it?
Or, we understand it and understand that it is wrong as it contradicts reality and/or itself.

We grasp your hypothesis quite well. At least some of us do. We just understand it is wrong and does not describe reality at all.
Understanding your model contradicts reality doesn't mean we don't understand your model nor that we aren't even trying to grasp it.

However your continued dismissal of those who realise your theory is wrong, especially by avoiding questions and just saying people don't understand does show that you aren't even trying to make a coherent model and don't care if your model contradicts itself.

How about you stop dismissing people as not understanding your model and instead try and justify your claims.

You can call it buoyancy if you want as long as you leave out the fictional stuff like gravity. If you can't then I simply refute it and use my own version.
You mean leave out the real stuff like gravity. If we use reality then you will reject, not refute. There is a big difference between reject and refute.

Like I said, after all this time you don't understand it.
No, after all this time, you are still unable to make a coherent model and instead you are still contradicting yourself, and we understand that.

If you think we are wrong, please explain why an object surrounded by air falls, but an object surrounded by air doesn't fall.

Notice the problem? We sure can. In both cases, they are surrounded by air, but you get 2 wildly different results.

There cannot be any free space where nothing exists in it. It's impossible and makes no sense at all.
Again, all we have for that is your baseless assertion.

Why is it impossible?
Why doesn't it make any sense at all?

Objects have a position in 3D space (or you can even say 4D space-time).
If you have an object in one position, and another object in another position, with no object in the position between them, then there is free space between them.

All free space is is free space that isn't occupied by an object.
Sure you can appeal to the quantum level to appeal to virtual particles and probability functions, but that isn't what is being discussed here, as that doesn't affect the size of the molecule.

Friction & vibration are movements. Movements require space within which to move. Ergo, there is space between molecules.
While movement requires space, it doesn't require that space to be free as it can just push objects out of the way.

Nothing is added to the beer as it is pressure sealed.
Yet when freezing process the moecule (in the conventional physics terms) expand, and eventually the bottle fails.
Hes proving that space is a thing.
While some may argue over exactly what constitutes the size of the molecule, for the simple level, the molecule remains the same size.
The big issue for water is the nature of the hydrogen bonding.
Liquid water (at least when warm) has roughly 3.5 hydrogen bonds on each molecule. But solid water has 4.
The necessary orientation of the hydrogen bonds means the solid water needs to adopt a more open crystal structure, with significant voids, while the liquid water is more disordered and fills the voids.

However this is a good example, as there is no reason for the molecules to expand when they cool, as for almost everything else they would need to shrink as they cool.
Water, between 4 degrees and 0 degrees, would need to expand in denpressure. While conventional physics/chemistry explains it so well.

The same applies to other negative thermal expansion coefficient materials.
Denspressure needs them to magically expand when cooling.
But for conventional physics, these are materials which have open structures, such that when they are cold and rigid there are large voids as the linear connections between atoms keeps them spaces apart. But when they are heated up and begin to vibrate, these linear connections become bent and allow the atoms to begin to fill the voids and shrink.

I guess I am still confused as to why someone could not simply apply conservation of momentum to show that rockets can fly in a vacuum since my previous question has not been answered.  There is a lot of talk about air pressure and expansion of gases that is really not necessary to answer the primary question.  I think we all agree that when a rocket is launched, gas is pushed out of the back of the rocket.  Since a rocket starts at rest, the initial momentum of the rocket, its fuel, and the gas that will eventually be formed is zero.  As gas gets pushed out the back of the rocket, the rocket and the remaining fuel must move forward to conserve momentum.

p0=pf

0 = mgasvgas+mrocketvrocket

-mgasvgas/mrocket = vrocket

Seems pretty straight forward that a rocket would move in the opposite direction of the gases being expelled from the back of rocket.

That is why I am asking about conservation of momentum.  By applying this general principle of physics, we can show that the rocket can indeed move forward without the need of an external pushing force (air pushing the rocket).

You cant "math" with them.
Look up any previous discussions with scepti.
Esrlier this year it went on for +50pg.

What you need to do is adhere to their "understanding" of physics and work out a disproof of their concept.

They lay out case A.
Show case B, under all the same circumstances, doesnt work.
And the result is usually for them to run away or dismissal.

Case in point, lackless in turn ends up giving one word nonanswers and scepti says dismisses all further discussion claiming we re not smart enough to understand his theory.

A block of metal made from the exact same mass of the ship.
One floats and the other sinks, yet the dense mass is exactly the same.

Now of course you're going to say buoyancy. However we need to argue what is really happening, even though your text books will explain it from your side.
Over to you.

How does a beer put in the freezer for too long, freeze, expand and burst?
Not sure what you're getting at here.

Nothing is added to the beer as it is pressure sealed.
Yet when freezing process the moecule (in the conventional physics terms) expand, and eventually the bottle fails.
Hes proving that space is a thing.
He's not proving space is a thing. He's simply showing how liquid and gas react against a solid, by expansion and contraction of molecules, inside and outside.

So, in essence, you claim that how heat and cold affect substances from a conventional bio-chemical perspective is incorrect? So not only do you reject basic physics, you reject the basics of bio-chemistry as well?

I'll draw a diagram sometime tomorrow showing you what I mean about how the rocket really works. The diagram may be crude but it'll make a point from my side and it's entirely up to you how you view it.
I'll be waiting.
But remember, this is mainly focusing on a vacuum. So don't draw a diagram of how a rocket works in the atmosphere, draw/indicate exactly what happens with that setup of a rocket in a vacuum (or as you call it extreme low pressure).

I won't bother drawing a diagram for what you ask. It would be pointless.
So let's argue a spring. We'll use a spring as our molecules of gas in your vacuum and in my atmosphere.

If you hold a spring in your hand by holding it down with your other hand in a fully compressed set up and then quickly took away your hand above that spring, tell me what you would expect to happen on that uncoil/expansion and what you would feel on your holding hand which is the foundation for the base of the spring.

Just answer this one on its own and we'll go on from this point.


Quote from: JackBlack

The same applies to other negative thermal expansion coefficient materials.
Denpressure needs them to magically expand when cooling.

Because that's what happens.
A evacuation chamber will verify this. You can all use one.

In my model it works fine.

Because they believe its pushing off the air.

That is why I am asking about conservation of momentum.  By applying this general principle of physics, we can show that the rocket can indeed move forward without the need of an external pushing force (air pushing the rocket).
Explain this conservation of momentum with your rocket so I know what you're trying to get at.

You're only arguing from a point of adherence to diagram and text as your proof of what you're arguing against my theory, of which you know I cannot actually prove to you because we're talking about stuff that is outside of our observation capabilities and relies on basic theory.

You're basically talking about action and equal and opposite reaction, right?

This would be fine as long as you have leverage. Everything requires leverage/resistance in order to create the action and equal and opposite reaction.

In atmosphere you have your pressure just sitting there waiting for that rocket to open up and expand its gas into it.
The atmosphere acts like the trampoline in terms of absorbing the impact of the exiting gas of the rocket and is compressed to a limit in short order. It now reacts to that thrust by compressing back in an equal and opposite reaction to that action while that rocket keeps on throwing out that thrust.

It creates a consistent movement of the rocket and a consistent resistance of the atmosphere below, almost like stacking trampolines onto trampolines which rests the rocket gases onto the atmospheric gases.

All the rocket does is sits above the gas fight.
There is no internal pushing going on.

Oh i understand it.
I am smart.
You dont seem to undersrand your own theory.

The hair is has air all around it so it stays up.
If i jump, i have air all around me - should i stay up?

But you claim Air pushes things down.
If its pushing from the top, my hair will be flattened.
Is it?

You claim air is stacked sponges upon spongese in a long chain all the way up to the ice dome.
Yet the air somehow disconndcts when it decides my hair is not part of my body?

Air is displaced in all directions?
So how does that equate to a total net down direction?
Like I said, after all this time you don't understand it.
It's fine proclaiming you're smart but clearly you're not paying attention or are doing this deliberately even after clear explanation from my side.

Maybe you simply go into your schooled stuff which makes you fail to grasp. It doesn't make you less smart but it certainly makes you ignorant.
The fact you used the jump as if you were explaining something, tells me you fail to grasp.

If youre so great and your theory has no chinks then have at it.
Answer a few of these.

I won't bother drawing a diagram for what you ask. It would be pointless.
Why? Because it shows you are completely wrong?
Guess what, that isn't pointless, it shows you are wrong and that rockets work in a vacuum. That is the entire point.

So let's argue a spring.
No. Lets argue gas in the cylinder.
Does it stay contained? If not, what is pushing against to move?

If you want to argue springs, then you can treat the gas as a bunch of tiny springs aligned left to right.
Again, what happens?

Just answer this one on its own and we'll go on from this point.
So you can try to avoid the question yet again?
The situation required is difficult to achieve.
What you actually want to do is have a spring coiled in your hand with something holding it together. A simple case would be a piece of string. A better example would be something that melts in your hand.
This is important because it allows a very rapid removal of whatever is holding the spring together, faster than the spring can respond.
If you do this, you feel the spring push on your hand as it expands.
But it is even easier to see this by pulling on a spring and having it snap or cutting a string which is attached to the spring and the object and the effect can be seen with a slinky. While the spring is in tension, it applies the force, even without something on the other end to pull. But once it has contracted, it will not.

The reason your analogy fails and is EXTREMELY dishonest is because you cannot move your hand out of the way fast enough. That means that by the time your hand is out of the way, the spring is already relaxed.

Now deal with the gas in the cylinder in a vacuum.
Does the gas remain inside it, or does it have something to push against to move?

Quote from: JackBlack

The same applies to other negative thermal expansion coefficient materials.
Denpressure needs them to magically expand when cooling.
Because that's what happens.
I know what happens in reality. The bulk material expands. The atoms do not.
You have no explanation for why they expand.
The actual explanation for why appeals to the voids left in the structure.
But you claim these voids don't exist.
But then how does it expand?

Notice how you completely fail to provide an answer and instead just assert your model works fine, even after it is explained that it doesn't.

He's not proving space is a thing. He's simply showing how liquid and gas react against a solid, by expansion and contraction of molecules, inside and outside.
Empty space is the only justification for this expansion. This is because cooling causes expansion in this case. (or to put it another way, heating causes it to shrink).

You're only arguing from a point of adherence to diagram
No, we are arguing from evidence and explanatory power. Two things your model severely lacks.

I think I do answer 99% of all questions
No you don't, you avoid them, such as by dismissing them as stupid, or claiming we don't understand.

You're basically talking about action and equal and opposite reaction, right?
Or the more basic conservation of momentum. But yes, action-reaction covers it as well.

This would be fine as long as you have leverage.  Everything requires leverage/resistance in order to create the action and equal and opposite reaction.
Which as I have already established, you do.
The gas has the rocket to push against. The rocket has the gas to push against.
The gas and the rocket both provide the necessary resistance to allow them to push each other apart.

If that wasn't the case then the gas has nothing to push against and would need to remain trapped inside a container even though it is exposed to vacuum.

A ship of known measured mass.
A block of metal made from the exact same mass of the ship.
One floats and the other sinks, yet the dense mass is exactly the same.

Now of course you're going to say buoyancy. However we need to argue what is really happening, even though your text books will explain it from your side.
Over to you.
Yes, because buoyancy actually explains it. Do you understand it?
The simplest way of looking at it is to include the air inside the ship as well, which is important in this case.

But the more technical way is noting that due to gravity, there will exist a pressure gradient in any fluid. This is quite easy to measure and has been shown to be real beyond any sane doubt.
This pressure gradient is based upon the height of the fluid and its density.
At the surface of the water, the pressure is atmospheric pressure, the same as the air.
The water from below pushes upwards due to that pressure while the air from above pushes downwards.
Right at the surface the pressure is ~equal, and thus the water pushing up is balanced by the air pushing down.
But when the boat goes into the water, that pressure increases. As said above, this increase is based upon the density of the fluid, so the pressure from the water increase roughly 1000 times as that of the air. This means the pressure of the water will be much larger than that of the air and thus there will be a net upwards force.
The further down it goes, the more the pressure increases.
Eventually one of 2 things will happen:
The body is submerged, and now the water is also pushing down from above, and the important pressure is the difference between the top and bottom surface resulting in a reduction in apparent weight, but not enough to cause the object to float, or
It will be far enough down that the extra pressure of the water pushing up is enough to negate its weight meaning it floats.

For buoyancy on an interface, shape is important.

I'm not rewriting science history I'm merely giving my theory
You are rejecting established science which is based upon mountains of evidence which those using rational thought would accept and providing in its place a collection of nonsense (it isn't a theory, it isn't even an internally consistent hypothesis).

Your "alternative" is not viable in any sane way.

The hair is has air all around it so it stays up.
If i jump, i have air all around me - should i stay up?
No because your dense mass is pushing into the atmosphere and that atmosphere directly above you is also stacked on your head and shoulders.
Your feet resist the crush by using the solid ground as your foundation.
The rest of the atmosphere is enveloped around you and is equalised around you.

For a better analogy of how it works just picture yourself in a large swimming pool. You're enveloped by it and you can feel it crush you very mildly, much more than the atmosphere you're used to living in.
The only difference you have with the water is in terms of inversion, meaning, unlike you pushing into atmosphere and using the ground as your foundation, you're also part of the air in your inflated lungs and cavity gases.
It means you cannot be buoyant.
However, you can in water due to these gases and the denser water squeezes you up as if you were a helium balloon in atmosphere, kind of thing.

However, if you were to try and dive down you would realise the water pushes you back up. It tries to crush you against your energetic push against it.
An inverted way to look at what atmosphere is doing.

However, if we want to take it further and use the swimming pool as a sort of better analogy in terms of being sort of equal, simply go into a pool and blow as much air out of your body as you can and you sink, right?

Imagine if you could release a lot more and end up walking on the bottom of the swimming pool. Now try and jump up.
You'll soon see that you're crushed back down to the bottom.

This happens because you have water directly above you on your head and shoulders and to jump you have to displace it, just as you would have to do against the stacked atmosphere.

Your hair can be flattened depending on how it grows against that atmosphere.
Look at people with long hair. It's not sticking up into the air.
People with more wiry hair or extremely short hair will see it stick up but then again each hair is under so little pressure per strand point and yet it is enveloped down to the skull which is a larger area that is directly pushing into the above atmospheric stack.

As above.


Quote from: Themightykabool

So how does that equate to a total net down direction?
Air is displaced in all directions but you are equalised in horizontal directions and are not equalised in a vertical.

If you stand up your feet against solid ground help push your body up against the atmospheric stack directly above all parts of your body that resist that push, such as head and shoulders and even a slightly bended knee or whatever.
The rest of your body is enveloped in a sort of equal all around horizontal direction. It's being squeezed but in equal parts ensuring you are stable.
The same would happen if you laid down, except, instead of the above atmospheric stack pushing down on your head and shoulders as your feet push your head and shoulders into that stack via the use of solid foundation/ground, it's now pushing back against your horizontal body from head to feet...back or front and the width and depth of your horizontally laid out body, meaning stacked pressure is spread out over that lower body and you fell this massive change in pressure by the comfort you get from lying down under that stack.

Now bearing in  mind that the stacked atmosphere is putting around 15 lb's per square inch of pressure  onto anything pushing up against it, you can understand that one hair point is hardly going to have much pressure against its point....right?

That's just the thing:
- What are the two objects compressing against? Why are both objects moving in opposite directions?
- And why would a lower pressure be created between the two separating objects?  If you and I stood back to back and walked away from each other, would a lower pressure be created between us? Would the stack drop down between us and push us further apart?

You are either deliberately avoiding this point or completely idiotic.
How you like that smugass question put back?

Lets try a different angle.

If you stood on a scale and i sat on your head.
Why then would your hair be flattened?
Would the scale show our combindd wieght?

This would be fine as long as you have leverage. Everything requires leverage/resistance in order to create the action and equal and opposite reaction.

Where would you attribute the 'leverage/resistance' here?


This is the same scenario as the medicine ball and skateboard carry on which I've explained clearly.
This is just another fancy way of showing it but the same applies in terms of pushing away atmospheric resistance into compression both ways which creates a lower pressure in between the two inner separating metals, which is filled by the dropped stack into that area.

Whatever is compressed has to be equalised, no matter how much energy is applied.

That's just the thing:
- What are the two objects compressing against? Why are both objects moving in opposite directions?
- And why would a lower pressure be created between the two separating objects?  If you and I stood back to back and walked away from each other, would a lower pressure be created between us? Would the stack drop down between us and push us further apart?
Let's go through this slowly and carefully...and clearly.

If me and you stood back to back and walked away from each other, so you agree that by doing so we use the ground as our leverage point in order to perform the walk by using our energy to push into the atmosphere in front of us.
And if you agree with that, do you agree that in order to walk your body away from your initial starting point you would other leave a lower pressure that has to be filled as you compress the air in front of you.

We'll get this point out of the way first before we move on.

If I stood on a scale then the atmospheric stack above me would register my scale measurement by me using the scale plate as my new moving foundation as I push into that stack.

You sitting on my head will transfer the mass of us both against the stack by adding to the push against it and also me knowing that this added push is now having to be resisted by my feet and also the moving/spring loaded scale plate.

I've just explained the gas earlier on.
No you didn't. You avoided it because you know you can't explain without admitting rockets work in a vacuum.
You said you would make a diagram, and then never did.

Here the issue is again:
You have a simple rocket that looks like this:
(https://i.imgur.com/mP5b3FP.png)
The black is the body of the rocket: Note that it is open at one end.
The red is the high pressure gas inside the rocket.

Now, looking at the left edge of the rocket, it is pushing against the high pressure gas next to it. Can it move as it has this gas to push off? Or can it not, because it would just push against the gas and so on until it got to the other side where there is nothing to push against?

Before answering, we are also looking at the gas at the right edge. It is pushing against the high pressure gas next to it. Can it move as it has this gas to push off? Or can it not, because it would just push against the gas and so on until it got to the other side where there is nothing to push against?

Note: These are of the same form. Either both can move, or neither can.
Which is it?
Can the gas leave the rocket with the rocket being pushed away?
Or are they stuck together because there is nothing to push against?

Care to actually try explaining it this time?
You wish to claim that an object needs leverage/resistance to move. Well the only thing for the gas to use is the rocket, or the gas between the rocket and itself (which the rocket can also use).
So does the gas push the rocket away, using it as leverage, or does the gas stay in the rocket?
There is no alternative.

If you wish to disagree you need to be able to explain why.
Why should the gas be able to leave the rocket when it has nothing to push against (other than the rocket), while the rocket can't leave the gas?


The hair is has air all around it so it stays up.
If i jump, i have air all around me - should i stay up?
No because your dense mass is pushing into the atmosphere and that atmosphere directly above you is also stacked on your head and shoulders.
Your feet resist the crush by using the solid ground as your foundation.
The feet aren't on solid ground.
He has jumped. He is in the air.

There is literally no reason for the air to push some objects down and not others.
Your model is pure nonsense.

An inverted way to look at what atmosphere is doing.
Nope, just like what the atmosphere is ACTUALLY doing, where it pushes objects immersed in it upwards, just like the atmosphere.

Air is displaced in all directions but you are equalised in horizontal directions and are not equalised in a vertical.
That is right. The pressure below you is higher, meaning you are pushed up.
Again, there is no reason to be pushed down.

If you stand up your feet against solid ground
We are talking about an object in the air.
Why should that get pushed down? It is surrounded by air all around, and the lower the air is, the higher the pressure.

I think I've put a lot of effort into explaining.
No, like so often, you repeatedly avoided it.
You are yet to talk about an object in the air. Instead you repeatedly referred to an object on the ground.
Try again.

What do you know is proven in terms of physically knowing, not just a reliance on what you're told, in terms of what I'm arguing.
Let me know and I'll grill you on it.
We have already been over this.
You tried to grill me and failed miserably.
What makes you think you will do better now?

The real thing is what do you know is proven in terms of physically knowing, not juts a reliance on pure fantasy?

No afraid. I just suspect I'd be banned almost immediately when they can't put me down.
You mean after you continue to spam the same refuted nonsense and fail to address the issues they raised, instead claiming you already have or that they just don't understand?

You have already been refuted with all the nonsense you have brought up here. What makes you think it will be different there?

Now bearing in  mind that the stacked atmosphere is putting around 15 lb's per square inch of pressure  onto anything pushing up against it, you can understand that one hair point is hardly going to have much pressure against its point....right?
And thanks for admitting that if it was due to pressure, it would be entirely dependent upon the horizontal area.
That if you take a long, thin rod and have it vertical, there will be very little pressure pushing down on it. But if you were to lay it sideways, then there will be push more pressure pushing down on it.
Now this means that if denpressure was the cause of an object's weight, that would result in very different weights for the same object in the same location, in the same atmosphere. But this is never observed.

Thank's for once again refuting your own model.

And also note, that pressure is IN ALL DIRECTIONS! Not down, in every direction.

That means if you take an object in mid air, it is being pushed from all directions, roughly equally. In calm air there is a slight imbalance as the pressure increases with decreasing height, meaning the object is being pushed up more than down.

This can also be used to hold things together, for example, a suction cap against a wall, where there is no air between them so the air pushes the suction cap into the wall (and the air on the other side of the wall pushes it into the suction cap). Note that this isn't pushing down, it pushes into whatever direction the wall is, which can be up or sideways as well as down.

So air pressure is clearly not what is pushing people down.

Now how about you stop bringing up your failed model in general and just deal with the issue at hand.
You have compressed gas inside a tube, open at one end. What happens?
Does it all stay together or does the tube and gas push off each other causing them to each more away from one another.

The point is your model contradicts itself. You need to rely upon vastly different and contradictory explanations for so many things rather than having a consistent theory where the one explanation (or set of consistent explanations) can be used for lots of things.

There is plenty to compress against. Air molecules crushing air molecules crushing air molecules and so on which will compress and create a resistance.

If you were to drop a sheet of glass down onto a table, why doesn't it crash down and shatter?
If you were to run through an alley with a sheet of ply board just slightly smaller than the opening, would you be able to run against the air in it it without compressing it?

The gas will only push the tube away when the end is opened and it can hit resistance as it expands out of that tube.
It does not push on to inner top of the container it pushes on gas molecules all the way through
The gas molecules exposed to the open container decompress against the lesser compressed atmosphere by using the gas molecules behind them to lever off and those gas molecules use the one's behind them to lever off as they push into the one's in front.....and so on all the way through the tank.
It becomes a gas on gas fight, not a gas against rocket push.

The rocket merely sits on this compression and expansion cushion fight. I've explained this so why can;t you grasp it?

Yes, all the way through the tank, and what is at the end of it? What is the foundation? The tank itself.
That means they are pushing on the tank.
If they aren't, what else is there to push off?

If the air in the middle is enough, then why can't the tank push off that air?

Do you not notice the massive contradiction in your reasoning?

Using your own reasoning you have only those 2 options.
Either the gas in between can be used as leverage/resistance and the rocket can push off that and/or the gas and rocket push off each other, or there is nothing to use as leverage/resistance and thus the gas remains trapped in the tube, unable to move.

So which is it?

If it is something else, then tell us what the gas is pushing off.
It can't be the tank as that means the gas is pushing the tank and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
It can't be the gas in the middle, as that would mean the tank can push off that and thus rockets can work in a vacuum.
In fact, it can't even be anything outside the rocket, because if the gas can use that for leverage, the tank can as well and thus again the rocket can work in a vacuum.

OK then, what happens if the tube is in a vacuum?

Before the tube is opened there is equal pressure on each end.
When the right-hand end is opened there is, at least for a very short time, still pressure on the left-hand end but no pressure on the right.

So it would seem that for that very short time there was an unbalanced force pushing the tube to the left.

So it would seem that for that very short time there was an unbalanced force pushing the tube to the left.

Once opened at one end the gas inside simply expands against itself and into the extreme low pressure environment with negligible resistance to that, plus the expansion from the breached end is allowed to expand on it's own with near zero resistance, out. The next molecules expands into that and pushes it forward whilst the molecule behind that one pushes that one forward and so on and so on all the way up that tube, until the very last molecules expand by using the inner wall of the other end of the tube as a mere foundation to expand into the tube towards the exit but, by this time they will be frozen due to having no more push or vibration.
This means the tube moves nowhere.

This would be fine as long as you have leverage. Everything requires leverage/resistance in order to create the action and equal and opposite reaction.

So in summary your refutation that rockets cant work based on a nonexistient undersranding of workable (WORKABLE) physics, you are worng and gtfo.
You can then re-represent your theory in the denP thread.
If you want to argue rockets, fill your boots.

As jackb mentioned many times ago
In your denP cell theory, if therw is a horizontal limit where the dome meets the ground, the air would behave the same vertically as it doss horizontally.

In this walking away analogy, the "foundation" has no difference in directional bearing than anything else.
You have yet to shown in all thwse yes why down is down.

How does earth down differ from dome side or dome top?
Is the dome not solid?
If my feet are resisting the foindation of ground, what is resisting on the opposite side?
Can the dome not resist the crush and push of the stacked on stacked sponges?
If you took a spring, put on ground, and pushed with your hand, doss it compress?
Hand-spring-wall, does it compress?
Hand-spring-ceiling, doss it compress?
Hand-spring-air, does it cpmprewss?
And you said you knew my theory.
Ifr you did you would not require me to explain it again and again.

Also this is a rocket thread so make another.

This pigeon has bolded the part you seemed to have missed.
You mean this pigeon has avoided the issue yet again?

Nope. I've already explained.
Read back what I said.
No you haven't.
You have repeatedly avoided it because you know your claims contradict each other.

It is quite simple, can the air create resistance? If so, rockets work in a vacuum, because the gas inside them can create the necessary resistance.

If the gas alone can't and instead you need something for that gas to push against (i.e. a foundation), then there is no reason for there to be resistance in that example as you are just pushing the air without it having something to use as a foundation.


Once opened at one end the gas inside simply expands against itself
As you have repeatedly said, IT REQUIRES LEVERAGE!!
What is it using as leverage?

The next molecules expands into that and pushes it forward
And why aren't these magical expanding molecules also pushing the rocket?

Again, you are applying a massive double standard to try to avoid the massive with your claims.

Again, you have very few options if you want to remain internally consistent (i.e. not refute yourself).
You can have the pressurised gas in the middle act as a foundation and have leverage applied to it.
That means that the gas and rocket can push against it to move outwards. Thus rockets work in a vacuum.
Alternatively you can say the gas in the middle is just transferring the force as it would need something to push against as well. Instead, the gas at the edge pushes through the gas in the middle to the rocket. These then push each other apart so the gas moves one way and the rocket moves the other. Thus rockets work in a vacuum.
Alternatively you can say that the rocket too would only be able to transfer the force and needs a foundation/leverage and there is nothing outside the rocket to be used as leverage or a foundation, thus the rocket and the gas remain where they are. That will mean that rockets don't work in a vacuum, but that also means you have pressurised gas directly next to a vacuum, not moving into the vacuum.

Again, if you want to disagree, and have anyone take you seriously and/or have an internally consistent model, you need to explain what the gas is pushing against which allows it to move/expand into the vacuum, which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against.
You are yet to do this and as such, you are yet to explain anything.

I'm being very consistent and on point.
The issue is in you and others not getting the gist of what I'm explaining but arguing black and blue that you are.

I've tried to explain it's a gas on gas fight and the rocket sits atop of it.
There's nothing inside of that rocket pushing it up, it's all outside of it.

The nozzle is the big clue.

No you aren't.
If you were, you would be able to explain what the gas is using for leverage, and accept that it is either the rocket itself, or the gas in between which the rocket would then also be able to use and thus admit that rockets do work in a vacuum.

But you can't. Instead all you do is repeatedly insult those who show you are wrong and dodge the issue again and again and again.

Here you are dodging yet again.

I've tried to explain it's a gas on gas fight and the rocket sits atop of it.
And I have explained how you can't just rely upon that, i.e. your explanation failed.
If it was just gas on gas, the gas would expand outwards in all directions.

You claim that in order to move there must be leverage.
So what is the gas at the edge using as leverage?
If it is the gas in the middle, the rocket can use that as well and thus there is no problem with rockets working in a vacuum.

This is where the massive inconsistency comes from. You claim that the gas at the edge is using the gas in the middle as leverage, even though it would transfer the force all the way through, with the logical conclusion being all the way through to the tank and thus push the tank itself, yet you then ignore that logical conclusion and instead have the force propagation magically stop before the tank and claim the tank has nothing to push against even though all that gas is there for the tank to push against.

Either you can push against the gas, or you can't.
If you can, the rocket has something to push against.
If you can't then the gas has nothing to push against and thus must remain.

If instead that gas needs a foundation/leverage, then the only possible source in this situation is the rocket itself.
That would mean it isn't a gas on gas fight. It is a rocket on gas fight.
The rocket pushes the gas one way, and the gas pushes the rocket the other way.

If that isn't enough, then there is no foundation or leverage and thus the rocket and gas remain where they are, with the high pressure gas remaining right next to a vacuum.

This is the same issue you have avoided every single post in this thread.

Now again, what is the gas pushing against which isn't the rocket itself and which the rocket can't push against?
There is literally nothing that matches that.

Let's see how you answer this.
Picture a small tube and a mass of sponge balls much bigger than the tube entrance.
Now start to fill the tube. How do you do this?

You have to compress each sponge to fit in that tube and then with each sponge ball pushed into it, that sponge ball will push the other further into that tube until it hits the other sealed end.

Fair enough?

Now that you've filled the tube to the point where the last sponge ball simply sits at the open end but not expanding out.
Now you add more sponge balls into that tube and in doing so you compress the sponge ball closest to it and that sponge ball is compressed into the next and so on and so on, until the compression evens out, as long as you close the exit with each inserted ball.
Now we have what's know as a compressed gas inside that tube that is creating the same pressure on each end as long as it's closed at each end.

Now allow them to decompress and you'll notice that the very last sponge ball you placed in will be the first out...naturally.
This will be the first one to fully expand, followed by the one behind that is pushing it out by using the third in line as leverage.
This will happen until the sponge balls cannot hold the compression enough to expand any more out. This is what we would call a freeze inside the tube.

Notice that the sealed end of the tube does not offer any push into it, it all happens at the open end.

Surely you can grasp this.
Can anyone understand what I'm saying?

So you're claiming that under a certain pressure limit, gas can't pass through an orifice?  Should be simple enough to test.   How about some example numbers on that?

Testing it out is easy. A freeze up will prove the point with any extreme expansion.

However we're dealing with rockets and how they actually move.
I've given the reason why they do and the reason why they cannot work in extreme low pressure, or space as people believe there is.

Why, so you can try to deflect yet again?

No thanks. I've given you enough chances with you repeatedly avoiding a very simple question.

Why can't you just answer the simple questions asked of you?
What is the gas using as leverage?

Notice that the sealed end of the tube does not offer any push into it, it all happens at the open end.
No, I don't notice that, as you are yet to show it in any way.
The only way for that to not happen is if the gas itself can be what is used for leverage, which would mean that the rocket can use that gas as leverage.
Surely you can grasp this.

And no, in reality, it doesn't happen as you say.
You can try and make the force tiny, such that other forces can make it appear that the tube has no force against it, but that is just being dishonest.

Can anyone understand what I'm saying?
Again, we understand, we also understand that it is wrong.
Realising that you are wrong doesn't mean not understanding you.

I've given the reason why they do and the reason why they cannot work in extreme low pressure, or space as people believe there is.
No, you haven't.
Instead of even trying to explain why they can't work in a vacuum, you repeatedly avoided it.
You cannot answer a very simple question, likely because you know it will show your claims to be pure fantasy.

Again, what is the gas using as leverage? You have very few choices.
The only options lead to the rocket working, or the gas remaining trapped inside the tube, even though they are exposed to a vacuum.

In trying to understand your analogy and how it relates to a rocket, wouldn't the first 'expansion' take place with the first sponge put in, not the last?

The rocket is ignited at the closed end, where the first sponge is, if, by your analogy, ignition is equivalent to the sponge expanding.

Yes
We understand your crude analogy.
Youve made no point though as to how the sponges push the outside sponges or push the rocket tube..

Lets finish the thought.

Theres sponges at regular compression all around the tube outside.
If shooting up, your claim is the sponges stack up between the tube and the foundation causing the tube to raise up as the sponges exit and expand.


So
This is easily verifiable.
Waterbottle rockets.
Try it with water as per their instruction.
Try it withoutwater and just a lot of air.
According to your theory, you would be abke to get more height out of the rocjet because you can compress more sponges into a waterless rocket tube.
Thus proving rockefs need air and foundation for liftoff.

Guess by my smugass response which experiment goes higher (water vs waterless)?

Read back to what I said about the sponge ball being larger than the tube opening and having to be pushed in.
Naturally it's going to compress.
Think of this as filling a gas cylinder, so although the first sponge ball would only be up against little resistance at first, it would soon be up against a lot more as each sponge ball is squashed in against it.
It means it hits the sealed end of the cylinder and gets compressed more and more as more sponge balls are added.

If you pack enough in they will become more compressed and enabling more balls to be added which means the balls become smaller and smaller.
By this time the cylinder will be under immense pressure but it will be equalised, sort of, if the open end is now closed off leaving a sealed unit.

Now then, bearing that in mind; if you imagine external to that cylinder being covered in sponge balls as if it was external atmosphere, these would be less compressed than the one's inside the cylinder.

If you were to open that cylinder to allow the sponge balls out, you'd notice that the first ball out would expand into the more expanded ball outside, followed by a push from the ball behind and the ball behind that, all expanding into the external balls and actually starting to compress those due to the force of sheer follow on expansion into expansion out of that cylinder.

The external balls now become a barrier to the expanding balls from that cylinder and now the cylinder is pushed up due to that expansion v Compression fight from internal to external.

Have a real good think about it and familiarise yourself.

For your sponges in a tube to be analogous to how a rocket works, the sponge expansion occurs at the ignition point. Which is at the closed end of the tube, not the open end. In a rocket, the closed end is where the fuel is and is ignited, pushing the gas off of the closed end and forcing its way out toward the open end.

Having the sponge at the open end as the first one to expand is not analogous to a rocket, it's the opposite.

Good advice. You should try following it sometimes.

Stop making stuff up and try and act honestly.

Admit that the rocket is in the same situation as the gas.
Either they can push off each other (or the gas in the middle) and thus rockets do work in a vacuum, or there is no leverage for the gas to push against and the gas can't leave the rocket.

If you wish to claim otherwise, then explain it.
Explain what the gas is pushing against which the rocket can't also use.
Stop just saying expansion and the like. Actually tell us what the gas is using as leverage.
Remember, if it is the gas in the tube, then the rocket can use it as well.

Stop making stuff up and try and act honestly.

Admit that the rocket is in the same situation as the gas.
Either they can push off each other (or the gas in the middle) and thus rockets do work in a vacuum, or there is no leverage for the gas to push against and the gas can't leave the rocket.

If you wish to claim otherwise, then explain it.
Explain what the gas is pushing against which the rocket can't also use.
Stop just saying expansion and the like. Actually tell us what the gas is using as leverage.
Remember, if it is the gas in the tube, then the rocket can use it as well.

In trying to understand your analogy and how it relates to a rocket, wouldn't the first 'expansion' take place with the first sponge put in, not the last?
Read back to what I said about the sponge ball being larger than the tube opening and having to be pushed in.
Naturally it's going to compress.
Think of this as filling a gas cylinder, so although the first sponge ball would only be up against little resistance at first, it would soon be up against a lot more as each sponge ball is squashed in against it.
It means it hits the sealed end of the cylinder and gets compressed more and more as more sponge balls are added.

If you pack enough in they will become more compressed and enabling more balls to be added which means the balls become smaller and smaller.
By this time the cylinder will be under immense pressure but it will be equalised, sort of, if the open end is now closed off leaving a sealed unit.

Now then, bearing that in mind; if you imagine external to that cylinder being covered in sponge balls as if it was external atmosphere, these would be less compressed than the one's inside the cylinder.

If you were to open that cylinder to allow the sponge balls out, you'd notice that the first ball out would expand into the more expanded ball outside, followed by a push from the ball behind and the ball behind that, all expanding into the external balls and actually starting to compress those due to the force of sheer follow on expansion into expansion out of that cylinder.

The external balls now become a barrier to the expanding balls from that cylinder and now the cylinder is pushed up due to that expansion v Compression fight from internal to external.

Have a real good think about it and familiarise yourself.

For your sponges in a tube to be analogous to how a rocket works, the sponge expansion occurs at the ignition point. Which is at the closed end of the tube, not the open end. In a rocket, the closed end is where the fuel is and is ignited, pushing the gas off of the closed end and forcing its way out toward the open end.

Having the sponge at the open end as the first one to expand is not analogous to a rocket, it's the opposite.
So combustion happens at the closed end does it.
Ok then, no further point in dealing with your dishonesty.

Correct, combustion happens at the closed end, not the open end (nozzle)

That is certainly where it starts for a conventional rocket.

For a solid rocket booster that is where it has to be for some part of the burn.

Ok then, no further point in dealing with your dishonesty.
You are the dishonest one here.

I'll give you more time to actually absorb it all instead of going into long typing mode without giving it much thought.
You mean you will continue to deflect rather than answering a very simple question which shows you to be completely wrong.

Again, what is the gas using as leverage which isn't the rocket itself and which the rocket can't use?

This is a very simple question which shows your claims are pure nonsense.
Again, you have very few options:
Either the gas and rocket push each other apart and thus rockets work;
or the gas and rocket can both use the gas in the middle as leverage;
or there is no source of leverage and both the gas and the rocket remain where they are.

Which option is it?
There is no third option. You have been given plenty of chances to provide another, and have failed every time.

I'd guess you would agree.

Once the valves are opened it expands out into an open area or it wouldn't expand.
The open area is the combustion chamber with is also open to the nozzle. It's all one opening, which means expansion starts at the opening.
The only thing in the opening is atmospheric compression waiting for that expansion to compress it back more and create that gas on gas push, like I explained.

In your analogy, the sponge balls are meant to represent expansion due to ignition/combustion. As has been shown, ignition/combustion does not happen at the open end, but at the closed end. Closest to the closed end, furthest from the open end with a 'choke' point inbetween.

In essence, your theory is moving backward. When in reality expansion starts at combustion, on the closed end, and pushes out toward the open end. Your theory has combustion starting at the open end, which again, is not analogous to how rockets are designed and built.

So unless you have designed a new kind of rocket that no one, from model rocketeers to pros, has ever built, then I'm afraid your entire notion is moot.

It is only "contained" by more gas, so no, it isn't contained.

For a rocket engine, the pressure of the gas is highest at the throat of the nozzle. After that it decompresses. For a good one (which is perfectly expanded) the expansion is done by the time it reaches the opening.

It is the gas inside the combustion chamber which is pushing the gas in the nozzle out, and it is using the rocket as "leverage/resistance" which means it pushes the rocket.

No need for any air outside.

It depends on the rocket and what we're told one is against the other.
The firework is a rocket. It's a solid fuel.
The other is a compressed gas inside tanks and released to expand for a burn.

We are dealing with a gas, as I've mentioned.
We can get to the other firework as and when.

No matter where in that rocket there is a sealed unit of gas that has a valve, that gas will not expand until that valve is opened and the expansion will happen via that opening....unless there is a larger compression than what's compressed inside that tank, external to it, which generally there isn't in this case/scenario.

Any opening from a compressed gas container will allow expansion of it into resistant but less compressed atmosphere, which will naturally take the reaction from that action as a opposite compression from that expansion.

No matter which way you look at it and no matter how far up a rocket you want to go for expansion, the open end is the crux of it.

Saying it's at a shut off at the other end, is wrong.

Here's the deal with you.
Show me the basic of your rocket and explain how it pushes away into the air or in your space from the action and reaction of the gases.

Don't just draw an arrow. Explain what's happening to move it and I'll happily use that very same drawing to show you how it really works.

Nice and basic. As basic a rocket you can make and to clearly show.
Let's see what you've got.

All that said, wrong again. The basics are that the combustion/expansion is created at the closed end, not the open end in your sponge analogy. Because it's at the closed end, it quite simply pushes through the choke (throat) and out the nozzle as its the only place it can expand to. Your analogy has it moving backward from the nozzle, through the throat to the combustion chamber, which makes no sense.

So it does matter where expansion occurs. And your notion has it occurring at the wrong end which would mean nothing would happen. It's backwards rocket science at best.

And, "Saying it's at a shut off at the other end, is wrong," is the whole point why it's right. Where combustion occurs its right up against the closed end of the rocket, where it's "shut off". So yeah, it's completely 'shut off' on that end. And that is not rocket science, just reality.

- Forcing gas through the throat (choke) as it expands out the nozzle
- Combustion does not occur at the nozzle and work it's way backward through the choke into what is known as the 'combustion chamber' - That would be ridiculous and makes no sense.

I'd guess you would agree.

Once the valves are opened it expands out into an open area or it wouldn't expand.
The open area is the combustion chamber with is also open to the nozzle.
Note that the values I'll use are for the commonly used Russian RD-180 rocket engine, though they are similar for others.

No, the combustion chamber is not an "open area". It is under a very high pressure, about 26.7 MPa or 3,870 psi.
During operation the combustion chamber is isolated from the bell of the nozzle by the throat. The flow velocity through the throat is limited to the speed of sound under those conditions.

The purpose of the expanding part of the nozzle is to convert the high pressure but relatively low velocity in the throat to a much lower pressure but far higher velocity as the exhaust gas exits the nozzle.

The exit pressure should ideally be equal to the external pressure but this can only be achieved, in a given engine, at one external pressure.

Quote from: sceptimatic
It's all one opening, which means expansion starts at the opening.
It's not really "all one opening" because the throat isolates the combustion chamber but you are correct in that "expansion starts at the opening" of the throat into the expanding section.

Quote from: sceptimatic
The only thing in the opening is atmospheric compression waiting for that expansion to compress it back more and create that gas on gas push, like I explained.
Ideally there should be no "gas on gas push, like" you incorrectly explained.

Almost all of the thrust of a properly designed rocket engine should come from the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant from stationary (relative to the rocket) the the hypersonic exhaust velocity.

The RD-180 accelerates about 1256 kg of burnt propellant from zero to 3050 m/s every second.
The force needed to accelerate this burnt propellant is the major component of the thrust, about 3,830,000 Newtons, 390,000 kg.force or 390 tonnes.force.

The outside pressure ha s only a minor effect on the thrust and maybe surprisingly the thrust is about 8% higher in a vacuum!

In your analogy, the sponge balls are meant to represent expansion due to ignition/combustion. As has been shown, ignition/combustion does not happen at the open end, but at the closed end. Closest to the closed end, furthest from the open end with a 'choke' point inbetween.

Not  quite.
My sponge balls represent two things related to the rocket but you've dived right in to put your own spin on what you think a rocket should do in relation to what I've said.

No, your sponge analogy is about expansion, expansion that is due to combustion. And you stated that said expansion would happen first at the open end and that expansion didn't start in the combustion chamber at the closed end. Which is not how rockets work. As evidenced. No spin. Just stating fact.

Quote from: Stash
In essence, your theory is moving backward. When in reality expansion starts at combustion, on the closed end, and pushes out toward the open end. Your theory has combustion starting at the open end, which again, is not analogous to how rockets are designed and built.

It depends on the rocket and what we're told one is against the other.
The firework is a rocket. It's a solid fuel.
The other is a compressed gas inside tanks and released to expand for a burn.

We are dealing with a gas, as I've mentioned.
We can get to the other firework as and when.

No matter where in that rocket there is a sealed unit of gas that has a valve, that gas will not expand until that valve is opened and the expansion will happen via that opening....unless there is a larger compression than what's compressed inside that tank, external to it, which generally there isn't in this case/scenario.

Any opening from a compressed gas container will allow expansion of it into resistant but less compressed atmosphere, which will naturally take the reaction from that action as a opposite compression from that expansion.

No matter which way you look at it and no matter how far up a rocket you want to go for expansion, the open end is the crux of it.

Saying it's at a shut off at the other end, is wrong.

All that said, wrong again. The basics are that the combustion/expansion is created at the closed end, not the open end in your sponge analogy. Because it's at the closed end, it quite simply pushes through the choke (throat) and out the nozzle as its the only place it can expand to. Your analogy has it moving backward from the nozzle, through the throat to the combustion chamber, which makes no sense.

So it does matter where expansion occurs. And your notion has it occurring at the wrong end which would mean nothing would happen. It's backwards rocket science at best.

And, "Saying it's at a shut off at the other end, is wrong," is the whole point why it's right. Where combustion occurs its right up against the closed end of the rocket, where it's "shut off". So yeah, it's completely 'shut off' on that end. And that is not rocket science, just reality.

Quote from: Stash
So unless you have designed a new kind of rocket that no one, from model rocketeers to pros, has ever built, then I'm afraid your entire notion is moot.
No. Your entire argument is moot.

Again, unless you have designed a new kind of rocket that no one, from model rocketeers to pros, has ever built, then I'm afraid your entire notion is moot.

In summary:
- Combustion occurs closest to the closed end of the 'tube', pushing off the closed end...
- Forcing gas through the throat (choke) as it expands out the nozzle
- Combustion does not occur at the nozzle and work it's way backward through the choke into what is known as the 'combustion chamber' - That would be ridiculous and makes no sense.
Your idea of the reality of gas rockets is totally wrong.

This is why you believe in space rockets.

No, it's how all amateur and pro rocketeers design and build rockets. All of them. Period. Show me one that isn't designed and built this way. You can't, because one doesn't exist.

You claimed combustion occurs at the open end. No, in fact, it occurs at the closed end. So you're wrong there. Again, show me a rocket that is engineered and built to work backwards like you claim. Can you?

How is my idea of the reality of gas rockets totally wrong when you can show no example of how any rocket is built to work in the backwards fashion you claim? Not a single one.

Regardless of whether I believe rockets work in space, they work in the exact opposite way you purport in the plain old atmosphere of earth. And that's evidenced by the fact that combustion takes place at the closed end and not at the open end that you claim.

Quote from: sceptimatic
This 8% higher thrust in a vacuum makes zero sense. It's just made up gunk to con people into believing they work in so called space.
So sorry, but it makes perfect sense to anyone that understands how rocket engines work! But why should they "believe they work in so called space" when they really do?

I know you don't like "sums" but if one has to really design things that work then "sums" are necessary, tough but thems the facts!
All around the rocket, except for the exhaust area, say Ae the pressure is the ambient pressure, say po.
But over the exhaust area, Ae, the pressure is the exhaust pressure of the rocket engine, say pe.

So this leads to an extra force (or thrust component) of Ae x (pe - po) due to this pressure difference.
And this thrust component is a maximum when the outside pressure is a minimum, ie in a vacuum!

So that is why the the complete thrust equation for a rocket engine is F = ṁ Ve + Ae (Pe - Pa) where F is the thrust, is the mass flow rate and Ve is the exhaust velocity.

So sorry about the equations but it is Rocket Science ;D after all!

Give me something to answer that you can explain properly.

Keep deflecting.
The question is basic and clear.
But i can spell it out so thst any semiz inteligent person can realize youre dodging.

Your claim it requires sponges of air expanding out and stacking up.
In conventi9nal science, Water rockets use air prsssure to shoot water out the back end causing a mass flow, which launches the rocket.
The very mass flow that a nasa rocket uses to get into space and the very mass flow that works in a vaccuum.
You claim this is incorrect.

So
Uder your "correct" version of science.
Comprsssed sponge air expands against outside noncompressed sponge air and these all stack upagainst the foundation to generate liftoff.
But by that theory, in a water rocket, if you take out the water, and fill it with all air, it should go higher -because we can fit way more sponges.
Yet it doesnt.
Why not?
Looks like you dont have an answer.

In the fireman water macjhne video.
At 1:06 the bozzle goss through a window.
Again, your theory relies on a foundation to srack the soobges against.
Why didnt the nozzle jump when passing through the window?
The window provided a raised foundation.
If you climbed a set of stairs do you go up?
Why cant this nozzle go up a set ig stairs?


Keep failing

You do not combust anything from the top down, unless you have an open area to allow expansion due to combustion out of the tube.
You cannot combust anything against a shut end of a container. You simply can't so it's not how rockets.

Your claim it requires sponges of air expanding out and stacking up.
I'm using sponges as a basic and simple analogy to save all the complicated stuff that would get lost.
The weird bit is in people not grasping the basic stuff but maybe that's deliberate or simply because people refuse to stray from their comfort zone.

Under your "correct" version of science.
Compressed sponge air expands against outside non-compressed sponge air and these all stack up against the foundation to generate liftoff.

Looks like you don't have an answer.
Dense mass of the water being pushed by the compressed air in the way I mentioned earlier about how it decompresses as gas molecule on gas molecule or sponge on sponge. (Remember?)

This dense mass of water is able to super compress the atmosphere or sponges directly under it and around that water and it compresses enough for the force placed on it to now decompress right back and create a foundation. A gas foundation on that stack.

The floor is simply a foundation in itself holding the entirety of the atmosphere.

Ok let's start there.  Explain how a water bottle rocket works.

Ok, I'll use what we see and my theory with sponge ball analogy as we go.

Ok, the water bottle is half filled. Let's call this water more compressed sponges than the normal atmosphere, meaning far more sponges crammed into that bottle in their denser state. This water easily pushes out the less compressed atmospheric sponges and to make the atmospheric sponges overcome the denser water sponges, we have to add energy as in, we have to cram more atmospheric sponges into the bottle to push those water sponges out of the way in order to push through to the top (which is now the base) of the bottle.

To keep on doing this creates a massive build up of pressure above the water, or basically many many more sponges compressed into that area above the dense water sponges.

The only reason the water isn't pushed out is due to the end of the bottle top being closed off.

Ok so what's happening at this point?

The water is trying to breach the neck of the bottle due to the pressure of air above.
The air more compressed and spongy against the more dense and much less spongy water.


The base (top) of the bottle on the inner skin and the sides above the water  are all compressed and sort of in equilibrium, meaning the inner top is feeling the push in equal terms as the water below it is.

This is where the problem starts for those who believe rockets work without atmosphere, because this is the very push on the inner top that people think pushes the rocket up against that water just below it and why they think letting the water be pushed out allows that push up from inside.

This is blatantly wrong but it's easy to see how people can be duped.

So what's really happening?

Once the lid is opened the air does push the water out against the normal atmosphere....but, like the sponge analogy it becomes a sponge decompress with that air from the very top of the water and it happens by the sponges behind the first sponges pushing onto the third stack to use as leverage to push the second and the second uses third to push the first.
This happens all the way back up until the water is pushed out but also before anything of that air pushes into the base (top) of the rocket inner, so therefore there is no direct push that way.

So what's happening under the water being pushed out at the nozzle ( open cap end).

If you notice when a bottle rocket takes off, the water is spread. Why?
It's because the denser water directly hits the atmosphere below and does exactly the same as it does inside the bottle, only in the opposite effect, whereas inside the bottle, the air is decompressing in how I said but externally that water is now hitting the resistant atmosphere and actually compressing it stack by stack downwards, meaning the water hitting the first stack of air (sponges) it compresses them hard and that hard compression is quickly placed on to the one below that and so on and so on.
The ground is simply a foundation for the stacking not as a hard foundation for lift off.
It's merely the gases that compress to decompress and back to compress to create the gas fight to push against each other to send that rocket up.

If it was simply air inside the rocket under compression it would be extremely weak to push into the atmosphere below it and you would get a weak lift off and quick dissipation or air due to less force of compression due to mass expansion inside the bottle with no denser fluid to arrest that expansion and create that dense push.

no, it starts from the open end.
Think carefully about it and you'll understand.

You can't have any expansion from anywhere inside the container unless you allow that expansion to happen, which can only happen at a breach or open end, or nozzle or whatever.

It never starts from the closed end.....ever.

Ok let's start there.  Explain how a water bottle rocket works.

Ok, I'll use what we see and my theory with sponge ball analogy as we go.

Ok, the water bottle is half filled. Let's call this water more compressed sponges than the normal atmosphere, meaning far more sponges crammed into that bottle in their denser state. This water easily pushes out the less compressed atmospheric sponges and to make the atmospheric sponges overcome the denser water sponges, we have to add energy as in, we have to cram more atmospheric sponges into the bottle to push those water sponges out of the way in order to push through to the top (which is now the base) of the bottle.

To keep on doing this creates a massive build up of pressure above the water, or basically many many more sponges compressed into that area above the dense water sponges.

The only reason the water isn't pushed out is due to the end of the bottle top being closed off.

Ok so what's happening at this point?

The water is trying to breach the neck of the bottle due to the pressure of air above.
The air more compressed and spongy against the more dense and much less spongy water.


The base (top) of the bottle on the inner skin and the sides above the water  are all compressed and sort of in equilibrium, meaning the inner top is feeling the push in equal terms as the water below it is.

This is where the problem starts for those who believe rockets work without atmosphere, because this is the very push on the inner top that people think pushes the rocket up against that water just below it and why they think letting the water be pushed out allows that push up from inside.

This is blatantly wrong but it's easy to see how people can be duped.

So what's really happening?

Once the lid is opened the air does push the water out against the normal atmosphere....but, like the sponge analogy it becomes a sponge decompress with that air from the very top of the water and it happens by the sponges behind the first sponges pushing onto the third stack to use as leverage to push the second and the second uses third to push the first.
This happens all the way back up until the water is pushed out but also before anything of that air pushes into the base (top) of the rocket inner, so therefore there is no direct push that way.

So what's happening under the water being pushed out at the nozzle ( open cap end).

If you notice when a bottle rocket takes off, the water is spread. Why?
It's because the denser water directly hits the atmosphere below and does exactly the same as it does inside the bottle, only in the opposite effect, whereas inside the bottle, the air is decompressing in how I said but externally that water is now hitting the resistant atmosphere and actually compressing it stack by stack downwards, meaning the water hitting the first stack of air (sponges) it compresses them hard and that hard compression is quickly placed on to the one below that and so on and so on.
The ground is simply a foundation for the stacking not as a hard foundation for lift off.
It's merely the gases that compress to decompress and back to compress to create the gas fight to push against each other to send that rocket up.

If it was simply air inside the rocket under compression it would be extremely weak to push into the atmosphere below it and you would get a weak lift off and quick dissipation or air due to less force of compression due to mass expansion inside the bottle with no denser fluid to arrest that expansion and create that dense push.

So expansion occurs near the closed end of the tube/bottle?
no, it starts from the open end.
Think carefully about it and you'll understand.

You can't have any expansion from anywhere inside the container unless you allow that expansion to happen, which can only happen at a breach or open end, or nozzle or whatever.

It never starts from the closed end.....ever.

I did think about it. 

Compressed air = High Pressure

High Pressure Moves to Low Pressure.

The compressed, expands.

Are you saying that the Low pressure compresses to allow the high pressure to decompress?

So the high pressure at the top/closed part of the bottle would expand pushing the water out compressing the lower pressure outside of the bottle.

So expansion starts and occurs at the top of the bottle.

But that when the nozzle is opened, all of a sudden the compressed air is no longer pressing against the top, represented by top arrows now missing:

Widely accepted model of atom shows:
- nucleus with protons and neutrons
- electrons in orbits around nucleus
- lot of empty space between tehm and around them

Scepti, your model of atom presents it without empty space.

So, when you "compress atom" you lose some matter,
and when you "release it" your matter comes back from somewhere.

Where did it go, and where did it came back from?
Or was it first destroyed and then created?

Here's the deal with you.
Show me the basic of your rocket and explain how it pushes away into the air or in your space from the action and reaction of the gases.

Don't just draw an arrow. Explain what's happening to move it and I'll happily use that very same drawing to show you how it really works.

Nice and basic. As basic a rocket you can make and to clearly show.
Let's see what you've got.

I promise you if you do this I will counteract it with my own diagram on the very same rocket, with explanations as to why they do not work as you think.
Your promises are worthless.
You have made such promises before, and just ran away when I met my end.

But here you go again:
(https://i.imgur.com/iTlCgNi.png)
For the simplest explanation, we just focus on the right hand side.
There is pressurised gas.
This gas exerts pressure outwards in all directions.
This applies force to the rocket, pushing it away to the left (red arrow).
This results in a reactionary force being applied to the gas, pushing it to the right (black arrow).

This means the rocket is pushed one way while the gas is pushed the other.

For a less basic view, the gas in the middle can't just leave the rocket, as there is gas in the way on the right hand side.
So the gas in the middle, in its attempt to expand, will push the last layer of gas (in purple) out to the right.
Again, this results in a reactionary force pushing the gas in the middle to the left.
Is this way the gas in the middle is acting as a force carrier, allowing the gas at the edge to push the rocket while the rocket pushes the gas at the edge to the right.
This means the gas at the right will be pushed out and the rocket will be pushed to the left, and the gas in the middle will expand outwards, and a new layer will take the place of the purple.
This continues until the pressure drops to 0.

Either way, the end result is the gas pushes the rocket one way and the rocket pushes the gas the other way.

Or in your terms, the gas uses the rocket as leverage/resistance, and the rocket uses the gas as leverage/resistance.

Thus rockets work in a vacuum.


Your turn.


No I wasn't wrong. Your problem is in wanting to turn a simple analogy into the entirety of what you think your rocket does, as if to negate my tube and sponge compression and expansion explanation.
There is so much that negates your tube and sponge explanation it isn't funny, especially the fact that you ignore key parts, like you can't just stuff the balls in by only applying a force on the balls at one end. That will push the tube along.

The other is a compressed gas inside tanks and released to expand for a burn.
You mean liquid, which is injected and allowed to boil and combust to massively increase its pressure.


unless there is a larger compression than what's compressed inside that tank, external to it
Which for a normal rocket which relies upon combustion, there effectively is.
It isn't a compression, it is a chemical reaction that releases heat and increases the number of molecules which results in an increase in the pressure.
It is a cold gas thruster where you don't have that.


Any opening from a compressed gas container will allow expansion of it into resistant but less compressed atmosphere
So not into a vacuum? So you are claiming that in a vacuum the gas just stays put?

No matter which way you look at it and no matter how far up a rocket you want to go for expansion, the open end is the crux of it.
While it is quite important, that isn't where the force is transferred.
The region of the rocket which is in contact with that pressurised gas, with that gas applying a force to the rocket is the crux of it.

None of you provide adequate explanations, just hand waving.
We do, you just ignore them because you can't refute them.

How about you really explain what you're on about.
It has been explained to you countless time.
If the rocket needed something to push off, then when the hose went through the window and had the ledge to push off it should go up much higher.
What this shows is that once the exhaust has left the rocket, it is irrelevant to the motion.

It shows that the exhaust doesn't need to hit anything. It's inertia is enough.

How can a water rocket work if there's no water? It wouldn't be a water rocket if that was the case.
I think he means outside.
If gas based rockets need gas to push off, then why are water based rockets fine to allegedly push off the air? Why should't they need to be submerged to push off the water.

This 8% higher thrust in a vacuum makes zero sense. It's just made up gunk to con people into believing they work in so called space.
No, it makes perfect sense.
There are a few ways of looking at it,
One way is to consider the unbalanced atmospheric pressure pushing on the rocket from elsewhere. That is primarily at the front of the rocket. Removing that will mean you don't have that retarding force and thus the thrust is higher.

But more importantly, a key factor in thrust is expansion. Once the exhaust gas has expanded to atmospheric pressure it has pretty much done all it can and you can't get any more thrust out of it. But if the atmospheric pressure is lower, it can expand more and thus you get more thrust out of it.

Just what part do you think doesn't make sense?

You do not combust anything from the top down, unless you have an open area to allow expansion due to combustion out of the tube.
You cannot combust anything against a shut end of a container. You simply can't so it's not how rockets.
So simple (low explosive) bombs aren't real?
They can't possibly combust because they are in an enclosed container?
The internal combustion engine isn't real?
The fuel air mix can't possibly combust because it is in an enclosed container?

Sorry, that isn't how reality works.
They can still combust.
They don't need to expand to combust.
Instead, when the combust they will increase in pressure.
This then results in pushing things out of the way, like a bomb or a piston in an engine, or a rocket.

Let's save argument here and use a water bottle rocket, seeing how you argue that a water bottle rocket is the same set up.
It isn't one that uses combustion.
But it can be used as well.
Take it to a vacuum. What happens? Does the water just remain inside, or does it move? If it moves what is it pushing against? What is it using as leverage?

Once again, the only 2 options are that the water stays stuck inside the rocket for no reason at all, or the rocket works.

I'm using sponges as a basic and simple analogy to save all the complicated stuff that would get lost.
You mean to try and use very significant limitations in the analogy to avoid reality.

The weird bit is in people not grasping
Again, we grasp it, we just realise it is wrong.
How about you stop insulting us?


And stop bringing up garbage about air being sponges.
We know that air is contained of discrete molecules with large gaps between them.
If it wasn't, we wouldn't have liquids and solids, and we wouldn't have negative thermal expansion.

That sounds, I don’t know, odd...?

Or do you mean the same way as temperatures even out, or salinity or acidity?
Ok think of this.

If I were to place you inside a tube in a cramped up position, meaning knees to chin, meaning your head touches the closed lid on one side and your feet touching the sealed bottom.

Let's call this the rocket gas under equal pressure as in, compression. Fair enough?

Ok, this tube is laid on its side or horizontal so you have equal atmosphere each end.
Ok, now we want the rocket to thrust out its gas, or your decompression of your body, so the lid gets popped for you to now decompress...how do you do it?

You see, your head was initially pushing into the sealed end the same as your feet were pushing into the lid, so you had equal pressure on both...until that lid is popped off.

Now ahat the first thing you'd notice?
It would be the pressure release from your head as your feet push out into the external atmosphere.
here is no now more push on that sealed end of the tube...it's merely acting nothing in terms of resistance because your own body is simply expanding out from the very front, or your feet, until you are basically sort of, prostrate.

So as you can see, there's no reaction to the sealed end, so that cannot be how rockets work by push in that way.
Try it yourself inside a box or something.

What you will find is the reaction to your feet as you try to push the air away from you as you do stretch out. It would be minimal in terms of your energy and mass but it comes right back to the Jack in the box scenario of expansion in one direction and hitting a resistance in that direction.

To put it in gas terms, it means the gas in the rocket expands into the atmospheric gas and compresses that which creates a action/reaction sequence which the rocket actually sits atop of.

Compressed air = High Pressure

High Pressure Moves to Low Pressure.

The compressed, expands.

Are you saying that the Low pressure compresses to allow the high pressure to decompress?
No...I'm saying that lower pressure is compressed by higher pressure

So the high pressure at the top/closed part of the bottle would expand pushing the water out compressing the lower pressure outside of the bottle.

So expansion starts and occurs at the top of the bottle.
Playing this game will not help you.

Understand we're talking about the expansion of gas and not water,
the water would be the internal resistance to the gas in this bottle rocket instance, so get with the picture.
The compressed air above the water will only expand once the inverted bottle top is opened.
As soon as this happens the air inside can expand and it will do directly on that water then continue to expand like an uncoiling spring all the way back to the inverted base.

No need for the base to be doing anything because it is not under pressure once there is a breach.

As you can see how the expansion of the gas works.
The larger black arrows are the immediate expansion and the second set of arrows from the front are pushing into the first as the first are pushing off of the second...and so on all the way down the rocket.
The arrows at the very back would likely be left inside  due to having zero push left, meaning no force is applied to the closed end of the rocket.

If there is no resistance to the expansion of arrows coming out of the nozzle as in your vacuum mindset, then there is no reaction and therefore zero movement of the rocket...and thus, no rockets will every work in extreme low pressure.

Explosives only work if there's massive resistance to the expansion...as in a casing or some sort that resists that expansion until it's breached, which creates a massive potential energy build.

A rocket doesn't work like a bomb. If it did, it would be a bomb and simply explode.
A rocket is a controlled burn. Simple as that. It's a firework.

But gas has mass. If those gas molecules are going to come out of the nozzle they must start to move, in other words, to accelerate.

You could say that mass is resistance to motion, though resistance to a change in motion would be more accurate.
Resistance to a change in motion is just inertia.

Now force = mass x acceleration and that force must be supplied by the closed end of the tube.
Hence there is a reaction and therefore movement of the tube ... and thus, rockets will work in extreme low pressure.  QED.

In a real rocket engine the same thing applies except that now a continual supply of gas at very high pressure (around 1500 psi) is fed into the carefully shaped nozzle.

Hence rockets work very well in extreme low pressure.

Take away the side arrows and simply have the entire tank of arrows pointing down.
There's a bit more to this but I'll let you do this before I proceed and this may help you understand where I'm coming from.

The starting state is that pressure is pushing outward, on all sides/surfaces. So you can't just start with removing all forces that are there and begin with "simply have the entire tank of arrows pointing down."  It doesn't start that way, the pressure is pushing up, down, left, right and center. Do you disagree that the pressure is pushing outward, evenly, within this closed system?

So when you open the valve, all sides, left, right and top are pushing down toward the open space. It's like a balloon compressing it's air out the valve, from all sides, left, right and top.

You're saying the air never pushes off the the top, selectively. If it's evenly distributed, pressure wise, what's stopping it from pushing off the top, the side, etc.

Post by: JackBlack on November 10, 2019, 02:27:56 AM
Here you go, like I promised.
Just where is the reaction/leverage in this?

What is all the gas pushing against, or do you think gas can just magically push with no leverage at all?
If that is the case, what is wrong with the arrows being the other way around and pushing the rocket?

i.e. something like this:
(https://i.imgur.com/9aX9YKp.png)

As you have repeatedly said, you need leverage/resistance to move.
So what is the gas using? Your arrows can't all be in one direction.

So just like always you deflect and don't bother providing an explanation at all.
So thanks for yet again showing your promises are worthless.
A bunch of arrows, ignoring key parts of your model, doesn't make an explanation.

My question remains unanswered, what is the gas using as leverage?

If there is no resistance to the expansion of arrows coming out of the nozzle as in your vacuum mindset
No, that seems to be in your contradictory vacuum mindset.
Remember, if there is no resistance, then what force is needed to move the rocket?
The only way you can appeal to still needing a force with no resistance is if you accept the mass itself provides a resistance, which means the gas provides a resistance.

Explosives only work if there's massive resistance to the expansion...as in a casing or some sort that resists that expansion until it's breached
At which point according to your contradictory nonsense about rockets, the gas should just leak out.

A rocket doesn't work like a bomb. If it did, it would be a bomb and simply explode.
It works like shrapnel in a bomb. It has a large pressure gradient across it and that pushes it.
This pressure gradient is typically driven by a chemical reaction which generates a large amount of very hot, very pressurised gas.

You're  getting there but the bottom picture is not quite correct.
That's right. There is no reason at all for the top arrows to have vanished.

Take away the side arrows and simply have the entire tank of arrows pointing down.
What is causing the gas to magically decide to only push down?

There's a bit more to this but I'll let you do this before I proceed and this may help you understand where I'm coming from.
Really? It seems far more likely that you have no answer at all and are just doing whatever you can to avoid the question.

You have magical gas which complete defies all your claims about how reality should work.

Is gas sentient in your fantasy world?

As soon as this happens the air inside can expand and it will do directly on that water then continue to expand like an uncoiling spring all the way back to the inverted base.
And why can't the same happen with gas, with the gas inside expanding, pushing out the gas further out?

Now ahat the first thing you'd notice?
My legs stretching out, and the tube getting pushed away.

Why not ditch the lid right from the start. You are in the tube, without a lid at all, just the solid base and sides.
Now stretch out. What do you notice? Is it your feet on the base, pushing it away?

So as you can see, there's no reaction to the sealed end
No, I can see that there definately is a reaction.
I have given you an experiment you could easily try yourself to confirm this, but you ignored it.
Start with a spring coiled up tightly and held together by string. To make it into your rocket tin can experiment, place a rod in the middle of the can for the spring to slide over. Have it up against the end of the can. Lay the can sideways, preferably on something that will allow it to move with basically no friction, perhaps on a very lightweight toy boat. Then burn the string.

No. It moves.

Now why did you just ignore the experiment I provided regarding the spring?

Is that because you know you are wrong and have no interest in doing an experiment that shows you are wrong?

Here you go, like I promised.

As you can see how the expansion of the gas works.
The larger black arrows are the immediate expansion and the second set of arrows from the front are pushing into the first as the first are pushing off of the second...and so on all the way down the rocket.
The arrows at the very back would likely be left inside  due to having zero push left, meaning no force is applied to the closed end of the rocket.

If there is no resistance to the expansion of arrows coming out of the nozzle as in your vacuum mindset, then there is no reaction and therefore zero movement of the rocket...and thus, no rockets will every work in extreme low pressure.
But gas has mass. If those gas molecules are going to come out of the nozzle they must start to move, in other words, to accelerate.
They do move. They expand and are all attached. No free space to simply freely move as one molecular unit.

Quote from: rabinoz
You could say that mass is resistance to motion, though resistance to a change in motion would be more accurate.
Resistance to a change in motion is just inertia.
We don't need to go on about something that means nothing. We've been through this.
Quote from: rabinoz
Now force = mass x acceleration and that force must be supplied by the closed end of the tube.
Hence there is a reaction and therefore movement of the tube ... and thus, rockets will work in extreme low pressure.  QED.
Absolutely not.

Quote from: rabinoz
In a real rocket engine the same thing applies except that now a continual supply of gas at very high pressure (around 1500 psi) is fed into the carefully shaped nozzle.

Hence rockets work very well in extreme low pressure.
It doesn't matter what carefully shaped nozzle any psi is fed into. It will not create any reaction against extreme low pressure to do any work other than to expend just about all of its internal gas to full expansion into that extreme low pressure environment.

I noticed you ignored the vast majority of what I said.

Here is the important part again:
WHAT IS THE GAS USING AS LEVERAGE/RESISTANCE?

According to you, in order for something to move, it needs leverage/resistance.

If the gas doesn't have that, HOW DOES IT MOVE?

We don't need to go on about something that means nothing. We've been through this.
So you will stop bringing up your meaningless nonsense of denpressure and just admit rockets work in a vacuum?

You not liking a word doesn't magically make it meaningless. It doesn't magically mean there is no evidence for it being correct.

All mass resists changes in motion. This property is called inertia.
The word isn't meaningless at all.
The big issue for you is that it shows your claims are nonsense, so you feel the need to reject it.

It doesn't matter what carefully shaped nozzle any psi is fed into. It will not create any reaction against extreme low pressure
It is the reaction against the high pressure gas.

Now again, what is your magic sentient gas using as leverage?
What is its foundation?

I also accept that and have never denied it.

Yep I'd agree that mass will resist motion until a force is used that is capable of changing that resistance to motion into a motion.

I accept they need a force applied to move. Contraction and expansion of molecules means they move against each other, just as a wave does. And the end product of any movement, is work, as long as there is something of a mass that is resisting it, as you mention with your mass, which totally kills your space rocket.

Ok, there you go.
And still my question remains unanswered.
All you can do is come up with pathetic diagrams and analogies.

Why are you unable to answer such a simple question.

What is the gas using as leverage/resistance/foundation?

Call it what you want but it is a nothing. It really means nothing in terms of explanation of anything, so why use it?
Pretend all you want, but it is a very real thing with great explanatory power.
It means a lot. It means that mass alone wont just magically move without an application of force. Instead if you want a mass to accelerate you need to provide a force to it, with that force being proportional to the product of the mass and acceleration.

The problem for you is that it means we don't need your nonsense and it shows your claims are wrong, so you need to dismiss it at all costs.

And the end product of any movement, is work, as long as there is something of a mass that is resisting it, as you mention with your mass, which totally kills your space rocket.
How?
You have the gas from the rocket, which you admit has mass and thus needs a force and provides a resistance, to provide the resistance required.

Again, if that wasn't enough, then what does the gas have? NOTHING! And that would mean that the gas can't move.

As I have said countless times, either there is resistance in this situation and thus the gas and rocket can both move, or there is not and neither can move.

I'd agree.
Good. So the countless photos from space destroy your argument.

But of course, there you go with the denial again.


Now, once more, WHAT DOES THE GAS USE AS LEVERAGE/RESISTANCE/FOUNDATION?

The term "inertia" is used because:
      there is linear inertia, the resistance a change in linear velocity (this one is simply mass) and
      there is rotational inertia,  the resistance a change in angular velocity

To realise it back to the energy applied would be to wait for the wire to weaken or to cut it.
I'm sorry, but I meant that a force must be applied laterally to start the weight swinging.
Then you still have to re-apply lateral energy to that already hanging mass on the wire.
You still have to push it against a resistance and compress that resistance of atmosphere which creates a higher compression than the other side where the push/force originated which leaves a lower compression that has to be equalised which compresses right back, which is then compressed again....and so on, creating the swing motion.
You can equate this higher compression against a lesser compression as merely contraction and expansion.

Reason:
The mass you push from one side is already taking up it's own mass of atmosphere and is already compressing the atmosphere away from it by that mass and also the atmosphere is stacked above it.

By you pushing the mass from one side, say, to the left, the stack above, of atmosphere drops into that place all the time that mass is moving from the force applied. But the stack is only equalising that portion whilst the mass itself is compressing what's to the left side of the mass.
This also has to be equalised and it is by simple transference of the wave created back into that lower pressure behind it by that stack above, drop.

Action and reaction based on energy applied, which still leaves potential energy after the mass and swing is compressed/resisted to a dangling stop..

Or do you mean the same way as temperatures even out, or salinity or acidity?
Ok think of this.

If I were to place you inside a tube in a cramped up position, meaning knees to chin, meaning your head touches the closed lid on one side and your feet touching the sealed bottom.

Let's call this the rocket gas under equal pressure as in, compression. Fair enough?

Ok, this tube is laid on its side or horizontal so you have equal atmosphere each end.
Ok, now we want the rocket to thrust out its gas, or your decompression of your body, so the lid gets popped for you to now decompress...how do you do it?

You see, your head was initially pushing into the sealed end the same as your feet were pushing into the lid, so you had equal pressure on both...until that lid is popped off.

Now ahat the first thing you'd notice?
It would be the pressure release from your head as your feet push out into the external atmosphere.
here is no now more push on that sealed end of the tube...it's merely acting nothing in terms of resistance because your own body is simply expanding out from the very front, or your feet, until you are basically sort of, prostrate.

So as you can see, there's no reaction to the sealed end, so that cannot be how rockets work by push in that way.
Try it yourself inside a box or something.

What you will find is the reaction to your feet as you try to push the air away from you as you do stretch out. It would be minimal in terms of your energy and mass but it comes right back to the Jack in the box scenario of expansion in one direction and hitting a resistance in that direction.

To put it in gas terms, it means the gas in the rocket expands into the atmospheric gas and compresses that which creates a action/reaction sequence which the rocket actually sits atop of.

Gas expands in all directions, which means: as you expand your body your head keeps pushing the sealed end throwing it eventually away together with the rest of the rocket.

No it hasn't. You have repeatedly avoided answering these simple questions and providing an explanation.
Do you know why?
Because as I said, you are left with 2 options:
1 - There is leverage and thus rockets can work.
2 - There is no leverage and thus the gas remains inside the rocket next to a vacuum.

You can lie all you want and say that you have explained it but everyone here can see that you haven't.

If you had actually explained it, then it would be very easy for you to directly answer my question and tell me what is being used as leverage.

Unless you have a mass and applied energy, which I've just explained.
So if you have a rocket, and the applied energy of its burning fuel, then it can move, just by moving against itself?
Again, the same claims you make for the gas can still allow the rocket to move in a vacuum.

Again, the only way you can be internally consistent and claim that the rocket can't move is if you also claim the gas can't, i.e. that it will remain trapped inside the rocket, even though there is an opening exposing it to the vacuum of space.

To put it in gas terms, it means the gas in the rocket expands into the atmospheric gas and compresses that which creates a action/reaction sequence which the rocket actually sits atop of.

Gas expands in all directions, which means: as you expand your body your head keeps pushing the sealed end throwing it eventually away together with the rest of the rocket.
Only if it's contained at both ends.
Try and expand your body with both ends sealed and you get what you are implying.

Open one end and your legs straighten out without the need to push your head off the closed end.

Here you go, like I promised.
Just where is the reaction/leverage in this?

What is all the gas pushing against, or do you think gas can just magically push with no leverage at all?
If that is the case, what is wrong with the arrows being the other way around and pushing the rocket?

i.e. something like this:
(https://i.imgur.com/9aX9YKp.png)

As you have repeatedly said, you need leverage/resistance to move.
So what is the gas using? Your arrows can't all be in one direction.

So just like always you deflect and don't bother providing an explanation at all.
So thanks for yet again showing your promises are worthless.
A bunch of arrows, ignoring key parts of your model, doesn't make an explanation.

My question remains unanswered, what is the gas using as leverage?

Ok, there you go.

It's been explained. Feel free to deny it.
No it hasn't. You have repeatedly avoided answering these simple questions and providing an explanation.
Do you know why?
Because as I said, you are left with 2 options:
1 - There is leverage and thus rockets can work.
2 - There is no leverage and thus the gas remains inside the rocket next to a vacuum.

You can lie all you want and say that you have explained it but everyone here can see that you haven't.

If you had actually explained it, then it would be very easy for you to directly answer my question and tell me what is being used as leverage.

Unless you have a mass and applied energy, which I've just explained.
So if you have a rocket, and the applied energy of its burning fuel, then it can move, just by moving against itself?
Again, the same claims you make for the gas can still allow the rocket to move in a vacuum.

Again, the only way you can be internally consistent and claim that the rocket can't move is if you also claim the gas can't, i.e. that it will remain trapped inside the rocket, even though there is an opening exposing it to the vacuum of space.
You're not helping yourself. Most likely deliberate.
You've been told how it works.

You've been told how it works.
I'm not the one needs help here. That would be you, as clearly demonstrated by your complete inability to answer a very simple question.
Also demonstrated by your contradictory model where you need to provide numerous contradictory explanations to try and explain different things, and at times need to appeal to contradictions in the explanation for a single thing, such as rockets in a vacuum.

You are yet to tell me how it works because you repeatedly leave out a key part.
This key part results in one of 2 conclusions depending upon what route you take.
Either there is something for the gas to use as leverage, which means the rocket can use it as well (or the rocket is the leverage and thus the rocket uses the gas as leverage), and thus rockets do work in a vacuum,
or there is nothing for the gas to use as leverage and thus it cannot move and thus the gas remains trapped in a tube while exposed to a vacuum.

In order to tell me how it works you need to tell me what the gas is using as leverage/resistance/foundation/whatever BS you want to call it.
The simple one in real physics is what the gas is pushing against.

Until you tell me what the gas is using as leverage in a clear way, and clearly explain why the rocket can magically not use it (and why it isn't the rocket itself), then you have not explained anything.

So again, what is the gas using as leverage?

Only if it's contained at both ends.
Which again would mean bombs don't work.
Back in reality, the gas still exerts pressure in all directions, pushing anything it is up against outwards.
That means it will accelerate shrapnel in bombs and rockets.

Open one end and your legs straighten out without the need to push your head off the closed end.
But it still pushes away the other end.
That is the point, you don't need to push off the top to be able to push the bottom, your own mass will provide resistance to motion.

It would if the pressure was not dissipated.
So if the pressure is dissipated by the gas before it leaves the rocket, then it doesn't matter what it is pushing into, i.e. if it is pushing into air or a vacuum.

So yet again, rockets work in a vacuum

Merely grabbing a photo and proclaiming it's genuine by massive appeal to authority, is not evidence of anything genuine, at all. I'm sure you'll agree with this.

That sounds, I don’t know, odd...?

Or do you mean the same way as temperatures even out, or salinity or acidity?
Ok think of this.

If I were to place you inside a tube in a cramped up position, meaning knees to chin, meaning your head touches the closed lid on one side and your feet touching the sealed bottom.

Let's call this the rocket gas under equal pressure as in, compression. Fair enough?

Ok, this tube is laid on its side or horizontal so you have equal atmosphere each end.
Ok, now we want the rocket to thrust out its gas, or your decompression of your body, so the lid gets popped for you to now decompress...how do you do it?

You see, your head was initially pushing into the sealed end the same as your feet were pushing into the lid, so you had equal pressure on both...until that lid is popped off.

Now ahat the first thing you'd notice?
It would be the pressure release from your head as your feet push out into the external atmosphere.
here is no now more push on that sealed end of the tube...it's merely acting nothing in terms of resistance because your own body is simply expanding out from the very front, or your feet, until you are basically sort of, prostrate.

So as you can see, there's no reaction to the sealed end, so that cannot be how rockets work by push in that way.
Try it yourself inside a box or something.

What you will find is the reaction to your feet as you try to push the air away from you as you do stretch out. It would be minimal in terms of your energy and mass but it comes right back to the Jack in the box scenario of expansion in one direction and hitting a resistance in that direction.

If the rocket nozzle is correctly designed there is no "extreme low pressure we call space" inside it!
There might be almost 3000 kg/sec of gas exiting that nozzle at 2570 m/s (for the SpaceX Merlin 1D engine).
So there is no chance of a vacuum in there.

The hose provides the water to the nozzle, as long as the water leaving the  nozzle creates a pressure greater than the weight of the hose and nozzle, it will move upwards, to the point of equalization, by which time it stabilizes and stays level. The hose under pressure, stays stiff, as you can see it being moved in and out. The narrow window ledge has little effect.

The water flows along the horizontal of the hose, right?
It also flows from every breach along that horizontal hose and each breach has a working pressure.
So look at the largest pressure keeping the hose up. Just concentrate on this area alone and tell me why you think this hose is raised from the ground.

The vast majority of it is. That is the entire point of the nozzle.

You sure seem to love asking for others to explain, but don't want to give explanations of your own.

The water, as an analogy for air, would be required to push off something in your model. The window provides far more resistance than the air, and thus should push the hose up a lot more.
But that isn't observed.

The entire point of a nozzle is to allow a controlled expansion to ensure the rocket creates enough compression directly beneath it by that expansion to effect vertical movement off of it, in atmosphere.

It does push off the atmosphere.
If that gas was allowed out of the nozzle against extreme low pressure, or your fictional vacuum of space then that gas would simply follow a one way street into that with no reaction to the rocket.

Understand that a water hose can push a person back a good distance.
It could, if strong enough, knock down a heavy barrier.
It also pushes back by equal reaction any dense mass holding the hose....IF, that dense mass is less than the force applied out of that hose by pressure release by expansion onto that water.

Learn about de Laval nozzles used in steam turbines - almost the same theory!
Don't give me this "cannot know what's outside" nonsense.

Let's put this simply.

A rocket with a nozzle in atmosphere with a released gas to expand into that nozzle will be expanding into atmospheric pressure inside that nozzle which is basically encased with the nozzle structure around it.
Expand internal cases into that and it gets pushed down by the super expansion from inside by super decompression from inside, into less compressed atmosphere until it hits it and then that atmosphere becomes super compressed.
Action and reaction.
This creates a gas fight of compression to expansion to compression and back to expansion, which would be the end product of dissipating exhaust...not to me mixed up with thrust doing work which is the super expansion.
The nozzle ensured that burn is controlled to get the best expansion to compression ration directly under that rocket to gain the maximum action/reaction of gas on gas. Or gas on atmospheric gas or fluid or whatever you want to think of it as.

Ok, now transfer that to an extreme low pressure external environment but with exactly the same rocket set up.

You're wasting your time having a nozzle at all. It would be pointless because only the direct opening before that nozzle would be the expansion point against absolutely zero resistance externally.
The re gas from the rocket simply follows a line to full gas expansion in itself which is followed by every gas molecule behind it against zero resistance to it, meaning a super fast dissipation of that gas, leaving the rocket exactly where it was and the gas a dormant line  of frozen expansion due to zero ability to expand or contract and thus, create zero vibration.....equals.....FREEZE.

Do you understand what that means?
That means the rocket can push against it.
That means rockets work in vacuum.

You need to explain what is there that the gas can push off that the rocket can't.
Surely you can't be this ignorant.

The entire point of a nozzle is to allow a controlled expansion to ensure the rocket creates enough compression directly beneath it
No it isn't.
It has nothing to do with compression beneath it.
The entire point of a nozzle is to expand the gas to utilise as much of the pressure of the reaction as possible.
If you eject high pressure gas, you are wasting potential energy.

If that gas was allowed out of the nozzle against extreme low pressure, or your fictional vacuum of space then that gas would simply follow a one way street into that with no reaction to the rocket.
Why?
Make up your mind.
If that high pressure gas is right outside the rocket, the rocket should be able to push off it.
How come now it magically goes on a one way street?
Why does only a vacuum make it a one way street?

It also pushes back by equal reaction any dense mass holding the hose.
Yes, just like a rocket. Water is forced one way, the hose is forced the other.
But once the water is out, it can't do anything more.

Let's put this simply.
Yes, lets put this simply.
Gas has mass.
The gas and the rocket interact.
That makes the gas go one way and the rocket go the other.

Any magic you invoke to stop the rocket moving works equally well for the gas.

Either the gas doesn't move, or the rocket does.

Or another way:
Pressure pushes outwards equally in all directions.
This means the rocket is pushed by the pressurised gas.
The only way to stop it is to contain the gas.
If the gas is not contained then the pressure will be unbalanced.

So yet again, the rocket works.

No need for any expansion or atmosphere nonsense.

The rocket does none of the pushing. The gases do all the work. The rocket simply sits atop of the gases, along for the ride.
It also means you have to have two gases interacting with each other. A clash if you like, in opposite directions.
My diagram shows you this.

The weird bit is in people not grasping the basic stuff but maybe that's deliberate or simply because people refuse to stray from their comfort zone.


Quote from: Themightykabool
In conventional science, Water rockets use air pressure to shoot water out the back end causing a mass flow, which launches the rocket.
The very mass flow that a nasa rocket uses to get into space and the very mass flow that works in a vacuum.
You claim this is incorrect.
It's incorrect in how we're told it works.


Quote from: Themightykabool
So
Under your "correct" version of science.
Compressed sponge air expands against outside non-compressed sponge air and these all stack up against the foundation to generate liftoff.


Quote from: Themightykabool
But by that theory, in a water rocket, if you take out the water, and fill it with all air, it should go higher -because we can fit way more sponges.
Yet it doesn't.
Why not?
Looks like you don't have an answer.
Dense mass of the water being pushed by the compressed air in the way I mentioned earlier about how it decompresses as gas molecule on gas molecule or sponge on sponge. (Remember?)

This dense mass of water is able to super compress the atmosphere or sponges directly under it and around that water and it compresses enough for the force placed on it to now decompress right back and create a foundation. A gas foundation on that stack.

The floor is simply a foundation in itself holding the entirety of the atmosphere.

Quote from: Themightykabool
In the fireman water machine video.
At 1:06 the nozzle goes through a window.
Again, your theory relies on a foundation to stack the sponges against.
Why didn't the nozzle jump when passing through the window?
The window provided a raised foundation.
If you climbed a set of stairs do you go up?
Why can't this nozzle go up a set of stairs?

What do you think's holding the actual nozzle and hose up as it goes through that window?

Through all your nonsesne - the conclusion is it is NOT weird that we cant accept your denP.
It is perfectly normal given that you are wrong.


Lets take the recent nonsense and bring it back to this post.
The water rocket.
Your claim is the water super compresses which allows it to work.

So lets switch it up back to the med ball.
A gun-bullet.
Solid "exhaust".
Is the bullet or med ball being "super compressed"?

The water rocket.

No, that is not my claim, at all.
Gas or atmosphere super compresses, depending on the force applied or contained and that containment being breached.
The water pressure is an end product of that compressed gas released as a super expanding gas pressure upon it.

Quote from: Themightykabool

The bullet is expanded against by the expanding gas created inside the shell casing which creates an action/reaction between that casing and the back of the bullet until the build up forces that bullet from the casing.
The dense mass of the bullet, casing and propellant is acted upon once it displaces the atmosphere it is in at the time, which reacts accordingly to refill the lower pressure created from the high pressure push.

The medicine ball is simply held and launched against the atmospheric stack which is compressed and that compression is then equalised back to the person who threw the ball, creating a action/reaction push back.

Or  recoil if you want to look at it that way.
It's all gas on gas.

Take away the reactionary gas and you have zero work done.
This is where the fantasy space vacuum remains just that for rockets.

You need to understand what you're saying.
If it's a water rocket the water is obviously required, or it wouldn't be a water rocket.

If the rocket nozzle is correctly designed there is no "extreme low pressure we call space" inside it!
There might be almost 3000 kg/sec of gas exiting that nozzle at 2570 m/s (for the SpaceX Merlin 1D engine).
So there is no chance of a vacuum in there.

Go and learn something about the design of the correct profile of that rocket nozzle. Learning a bit about hypersonic gas flow wouldn't hurt either.
A rocket nozzle would be as pointless as a chocolate fireguard in your space or extreme low pressure.
In other words you have no knowledge of the design of the expanding bell of a rocket engine nozzle nor of hypersonic gas flow, I realised that long ago.

But whether you like it or not the propagation velocity of disturbances is the speed of sound.
"Rockets can't fly in a vacuum" aficionado, Cikljamas, "proved" that earlier.

The velocity of the exhaust gas in a properly designed rocket nozzle is everywhere greater than Mach 1.
Hence the gas inside the nozzle cannot "know" about the vacuum outside. So there is not "vacuum" inside the nozzle
Learn about de Laval nozzles used in steam turbines - almost the same theory!
Don't give me this "cannot know what's outside" nonsense.
I did give you this "cannot know what's outside" nonsense fact.

The rocket does none of the pushing. The gases do all the work.
So the gases just push the rocket, pushing the rocket away while the gas just sits there?
Got it.

It also means you have to have two gases interacting with each other.
So, because there aren't 2 gases interacting with each other in the vacuum, the gas stays put?

You diagram shows nothing of use.
You have massively unbalanced forces and do not show the leverage/resistance at all.

Your diagram directly contradicts your claims of how your model works.
But that isn't surprising, as following your model would lead to one of 2 results:
The rocket works in a vacuum or the gas remains inside the tube even though it is exposed to the vacuum.
And we all know you can't accept either of them.

The gas ejects itself once you breach the container.
Again, HOW?
What is it pushing against to eject itself?
Either it is the rocket, and thus it is pushing the rocket, or it is something the rocket can also push against.

Because the fantasy vacuum offers zero resistance
The gas still has mass which still provides resistance.
Again, if there was no resistance, then according nothing can move. That means the gas needs to remain inside the rocket.

The rocket is moved as it sits atop the gas fight.
No, the rocket is moved as it is pushed away by the gas.
The atmosphere can be ignored. All it does is complicate matters.

Only when contained.
No. Even when not contained, pressure is still exerted in all directions.
Again, if this was not the case, bombs wouldn't work. That is because as soon as it cracks, the gas is not contained and thus according to you would only push in the direction of the crack.
It would also mean that rockets don't even work in the atmosphere.

But if you want an even simpler experiment, look at a balloon.
Fill it up.
What is holding the balloon stretched out? The pressure of the air pushing the skin of the balloon away.
According to you, as soon as you release the balloon such that the air can leak out the opening, then the pressure no longer pushes in every direction, instead it just pushes out the opening. That means the balloon would instantly shrink.
But it doesn't.
Instead it is held open by the pressure still pushing against the skin of the balloon.

So no, pressure is still exerted in all directions.

Absolutely a need or you have nothing that works, let alone a rocket...but never a fantasy space rocket.
Nope, my explanation works without any atmosphere or expansion nonsense.
You were unable to show a single problem with it. Instead you just do you typical rejection of reality appealing to nonsense which is easily disproven.

The function of the water is it's natural density and ability to resist basic gas compression due to its dense make up.
And how does that help?
You said you wanted the atmosphere to do that, not the stuff inside the rocket.
Remember, if what is inside the rocket can do it, then there is no problem with rockets in a vacuum.


Now again, in my rocket example, what is the gas pushing against which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against?
You have been avoiding this very simple question for so long. Why not just admit you were wrong?

There's no suck in anything. It's all push. It has to be all push.
Suck is just a word we use to describe what happens with pressure change, such as so called vacuum...but it's all push and that's due to compression and expansion of gases that are all attached with zero free space and which moves by expansion by being crushed forward from any expansion point, by more compressed gas molecules.

However, if you contain them then you have almost equalisation of molecules, until the breach of the container and only then does the compressed molecules at the front of that breach expand into the external gas/fluid molecules, in terms of atmosphere or even water, which creates a resistance to that decompression.

The first molecules out simply expand on their own but seeing as they expand into that resistance they are naturally expanded into from behind by those gas molecules that follow....and so on and so on which creates a gas on gas fight.
Anything materialistic that contains them will be pushed away on that gas fight.

A rocket is basically a firework in the burn stakes. Engines are an idiocy in the way we're told they work for so called space rockets.

By all means jump about and hand wave and scream and tell me about all the all go no stop, rockets into space and beyond books on the fact shelves of your local uni, library, kindle, internet or your home book case.
It proves nothing other than the ability to read and absorb and regurgitate whatever it is that takes your fancy.

I know I know. But I'm ignorant and this is how life works and all that gunk.
Just accept that I don't believe in a globe that we walk upon.
I don't believe in a spinning globe.
I don't believe in space as we're told it is.
I don't believe in space rockets.


This is what we're dealing with so using the stuff you're trying to throw at me as some kind of absolute truth, is absolutely pointless, unless you can absolutely back it up to a point where I cannot dispute it.
You've failed to do it as have everyone else...and you'll continue to fail even amid using every trick in your little black book.

There's always a push, right? And in the closed container, the pressurized or combusted gas is pushing in all directions within the closed container, right?

The container is breached in some manner, let's say at one end where a nozzle is, and logic would dictate that the pressurized or combusted gas that was just a second ago pushing on all sides of the inside of the container, keeps pushing, expanding, but now it has somewhere to go, out the breach/nozzle. 

When the pressurized or combusted gas is pushing in all directions within the closed container, why does it stop doing so when the container is breached? What's causing that existing pressure to completely evaporate? Why does it no longer push? Where did it go?

Either it is the rocket, and thus it is pushing the rocket, or it is something the rocket can also push against.
The rocket sits on the gas and the gas pushes the rocket up by the gas build under it.

Nothing happens on the inside of the rocket, except flow and expansion of gas which starts from the very breach of the rocket.

Because the fantasy vacuum offers zero resistance
The gas still has mass which still provides resistance.
Only to itself against following gas molecules that are expanding because of the breach.

Quote from: JackBlack

Bombs work because of internal expansion inside a vessel being allowed to breach casing/shell without having any suitable opening to allow that expansion, which causes the stress fracturing of that casing and the explosion of that gas against that casing which creates shrapnel and also a mass contraction of atmosphere by that super expansion of gases.

But it doesn't.
Instead it is held open by the pressure still pushing against the skin of the balloon.

So no, pressure is still exerted in all directions.
A balloon filled with air is now a compressed air container, if the end is tied.
It's pushing against the atmosphere by displacing it by the amount that's been taken from the atmosphere and placed into that balloon skin.
That atmosphere is squeezing back against it but won't crush it until you allow it by opening the nozzle.

Once you do that the atmosphere simply squeezes that balloon as the balloon air expands  into the stack below and is also squeezed back against to equalise the pressure, until the balloon is deflated.

The air coming out of the balloon is coming out in one direction, which is towards the open end.

The gas expands all on its own due to being allowed to by a breach in the containment of it, against lesser compressed resistance, which is, in turn compressed by this to create it's own equal resistance and this is what the rocket sits atop of.

No I'm not saying anything of the sort.
There's no suck in anything. It's all push. It has to be all push.
Suck is just a word we use to describe what happens with pressure change, such as so called vacuum...but it's all push and that's due to compression and expansion of gases that are all attached with zero free space and which moves by expansion by being crushed forward from any expansion point, by more compressed gas molecules.

However, if you contain them then you have almost equalisation of molecules, until the breach of the container and only then does the compressed molecules at the front of that breach expand into the external gas/fluid molecules, in terms of atmosphere or even water, which creates a resistance to that decompression.

The first molecules out simply expand on their own but seeing as they expand into that resistance they are naturally expanded into from behind by those gas molecules that follow....and so on and so on which creates a gas on gas fight.
Anything materialistic that contains them will be pushed away on that gas fight.
So it is all blow, not suck? That is the basis of it?

The terminology is fascinating.
It's all push.

your claim is that water is needed because it "resists compression" which answers nothing.
the end of the plastic tube also resists compression.
the ground resists compression.
why is water needed for the water rocket when your claim that liftoff is provided by the expansion of sponges?
Water is needed for a water rocket because the words "water rocket" requires that water be used.

If it was an air rocket, air would be used.
If it was a firework then a fire would have to be used.


And so on.

Unless you want to get to the point.

There's always a push, right? And in the closed container, the pressurized or combusted gas is pushing in all directions within the closed container, right?
Right.

Quote from: Stash
The container is breached in some manner, let's say at one end where a nozzle is, and logic would dictate that the pressurized or combusted gas that was just a second ago pushing on all sides of the inside of the container, keeps pushing, expanding, but now it has somewhere to go, out the breach/nozzle. 
Correct.

Quote from: Stash
When the pressurized or combusted gas is pushing in all directions within the closed container, why does it stop doing so when the container is breached? What's causing that existing pressure to completely evaporate? Why does it no longer push? Where did it go?
It expands away from the containment and straight into awaiting resistance. In this case it would be atmospheric pressure for resistance to that.

No I'm not saying anything of the sort.
If that was the case it would continue pushing in all directions.
It would mean what is outside is irrelevant to the gas as it will just keep pushing.
It means that it doesn't matter if it is air or a vacuum outside, you get the same result.

Start making sense.
Good advice, you should follow it.
Try to be coherent, it helps to make sense.

Does mass need leverage to push off in order to accelerate?
If so, what is your gas pushing against in a vacuum?
If not, why should a rocket?

I don't believe in space craft for the reasons I gave.
You don't believe in them because they show your model is wrong.
Your model is pure speculation, it provides no justification to reject the reality of spacecraft.

I'm telling you from my side why it does what it does
And then you directly contradict it.

usage of super large engines which are an idiotic way to move any rocket with the way they're set up
How do you plan to move it without an engine? A crane? Just put a bunch of explosives below it and destroy it?

Even fireworks have rocket engines.


unless you can absolutely back it up to a point where I cannot dispute it.
You have failed to provide a rational argument against it and instead just appealed to your self contradictory nonsense.
I would say that counts.
You can't refute it (which is what is important), you can just reject it.

Meanwhile your claims have been refuted repeatedly and you have repeatedly ran from very simple questions.

So no, we haven't failed. You have.

Repeated denial wont help your case.
I am showing the logical conclusions of your claims.

If what I am saying is wrong there, it means what you were saying is wrong as well.

It's clear to see the massively unbalanced forces.
Yes, which shows your diagram is complete garbage and in no way explains how it works.
You have your gas pushing against nothing and having a force come from no where to push it.
It is pure fantasy and directly contradicts your claims.

Itself.
So you are saying objects can push themselves to move?
Even though one of your big objections to rockets working in space is that they can't push themselves to move.

Again, MAKE UP YOUR MIND!
Can objects push themselves? If so, rockets work in a vacuum.
If not, then the gas can't push itself. It needs something else to push it to move.

The rocket sits on the gas and the gas pushes the rocket up
And thanks, you finally admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

However, it's how and why it moves which is the crux of the matter, of which I've explained.
You have explained nothing.
Instead you have repeatedly contradicted yourself.

it does not complicate matters.
It does, quite a bit, especially for fools that have no idea what they are talking about which then go and spout all sorts of nonsense.

There are 2 quite simple ways to explain how rockets work, which do not need the atmosphere at all, and unlike your nonsense, it is actually capable of explaining how rockets work, and the same principles explain so much.

To leave it out would be to hand your the fictional vacuum argument of a rocket supposedly working in space.
You mean to accept the REALITY of rockets working in a vacuum.

Not equally it's not.
Do you understand the definition of pressure?
If it isn't equal, the pressure isn't equal.
But at least you are making progress and admitting that it does still act in all directions.
That means the air inside the rocket is still pushing the rocket.

Bombs work
No BS, just deal with what was said.
You claim that an opening magically means pressure doesn't get exerted in all directions and instead is just exerted in the direction of the opening.
If that was the case then the gas would just go out the opening as soon as there was a crack.

The only explanation for how the bomb works is that the gas is still exerting pressure on the shrapnel even after the explosion.

So yet again, you are massively contradicting reality and yourself.

A balloon filled with air is now a compressed air container, if the end is tied.
And I'm clearly not talking about when the end is tied.
I am talking about when it is open.
Again, according to you that magically means your sentient gas stops pushign on the balloon and instead just forces its way out the opening.
That means there is nothing to hold the balloon open and it will shrink almost instantly, regardless of how quickly the air is let out.


I've shown massive problems with it
Really? I'm yet to see any.
I have seen you repeatedly dismiss it, but you are yet to show any problem.
You dismissing it and asserting your own nonsense is not showing a problem

Clearly it is not easily dis-proven or you wouldn't be arguing the points.
It is often the other way around, where things which are had to disprove (like real physics) is just dismissed (like you are doing), while things which are easily disproven (like your nonsense) are torn to shreds (as plenty of people here are doing).

The simple fact that you need to run from so much and simply dismiss so much shows just how easy it is to refute your nonsense.

The only way water will be released from the rocket is if there's a compression behind that water.
Again, who cares.
Why not remove the water and just have air?

Real physics has an explanation, but you don't.

The gas expands all on its own
Again, HOW?
This expansion requires movement.
According to you, movement requires leverage against resistance, and an object can't push itself (even though you have contradicted that).
This means the gas needs to be pushing against something other than itself.

SO WHAT IS IT?

See, this is why you have no explanation, because you repeatedly contradict yourself.


If you want to have an explanation you need to tell us what the gas is pushing against, which wont also work for the rocket and which isn't the rocket.

You are yet to identify this elusive thing (because it doesn't exist).

Nope. The potential energy is held by the water actually being placed into the container by applied energy.
If you half fill it then you have normal atmospheric pressure trapped inside. That's not potential energy, because it's already there.
Unless you actually compress that air to become more compressed than the external pressure, then you can add it in as potential energy along with the water.

Yes, you already said that, and I responded, and you have completely ignored that response.

ARE YOU SAYING OBJECTS CAN PUSH AGAINST THEMSELVES TO MOVE?
A complete defiance of everything known about motion?
A complete defiance of one of your main objections to how rockets work?

Do you then admit that a rocket can push against itself and thus rockets can work in a vacuum?

Until you do so, YOU HAVE NO EXPLANATION!

If you don't accept that inevitable conclusion then you have to reject your claim that the gas pushes against itself.

So what's it going to be? Do rockets work, or does the gas not push against itself?

Nope. The potential energy is held by the water actually being placed into the container by applied energy.
Nope.
This is quite easy to demonstrate.
Get a water rocket, and don't pump in any air. See how high it goes.
Now use the same amount of water, but pump in lots of air.

This is showing it is the air inside it that has the energy, not the water.

The water is much more dense against below atmospheric stack.
Which only helps if you accept that it is the reaction from the water being thrown out that causes it to move, meaning rockets work in a vacuum.
Otherwise it works directly against it.
The atmosphere with the water rocket is like the vacuum to the gas rocket, providing very little resistance against the dense mass.

You may feel youre saying something, but youre not.
Maybe you could draw a picture.

The air in the tube is compressed and is at a greater pressure than outside the tube.
If the air wasnt compressed the water rocket would not work.

The tube is also more dense than rhe air.
And the tube is above the outside stack.
So you still havent provided a reason for the water's presence.

Nope. I've already explained all directions when contained and one direction when breached container allows expansion.

If the expansion is only in one direction when the tank is open, the other side shouldn't have any pressure as the force is moving in one direction, the direction of the open valve.

Makes sense that it would realize that pushing on the walls as it had been is silly considering there's all of a sudden a way out. So it just stops pushing and moseys on down to the exit, apparently under is own new found locomotion and will to seek freedom.

If you have a gauge at one end and a valve at the other, the gauge would read a pressure because the gauge is under the same pressure as the opposite valve, only you can read the gauge but youc an't ready the valve side.

However, if you open the valve you will clearly see the pressure gauge start to read a lower pressure consistently as long as that valve remains open at the opposite end.
This proves the molecules are headed in one direction, which is to the breached valve..

Think carefully about what I'm going to say.

If you have a plastic bottle under pressure and you try to squeeze the sides of it, you find it's pretty solid, right?
This means your molecules are pushing against the sides, like you mention. And also the back and also the top.
Now open the top and tell me how easy it is to squeeze.
It's because the flow is now expanding to the breach (bottle top).
It's not exerting any push, only a friction slide down the inside of the bottle.

No, you literally said that it is pushing against itself.
So answer the simple question, can objects push against themselves?
Yes or no?

If yes, then rockets can push against themselves and work in a vacuum.
If no, then you are wrong and have failed to identify what the gas is pushing against.

Which is it?

Your posts sure seem to indicate the latter, and the gas at the edge pushes against the gas in the middle.
But if the gas in the middle can be used as leverage, then why can't the rocket use it as leverage and move?

Oh wow look at that.
JackB and i both independently understood what you incorrectly said and provided very similar corrections.
Who s wrong?
Both of you.
Then why are you completley unable to explain any problem with what we have said?

Simple observations like we have appealed to show quite easily that you are wrong and that the water is not the source of the energy.

If you have a gauge at one end and a valve at the other, the gauge would read a pressure because the gauge is under the same pressure as the opposite valve, only you can read the gauge but youc an't ready the valve side.
So you admit that the gas doesn't just magically push at the way out. Instead it also pushes on the gauge?

However, if you open the valve you will clearly see the pressure gauge start to read a lower pressure consistently as long as that valve remains open at the opposite end.
This proves the molecules are headed in one direction, which is to the breached valve..
See what I mean?
No, it doesn't.
When you open the gauge you see the pressure continue to drop as air leaves the tank.
If you close the valve the pressure doesn't magically jump.

The time that typically happens is if you have a pressure gauge at the valve end.

Yep and that's what you see on the gauge.
No, it's not what you see and you have already admitted that.
If it was as you claim, you should read a pressure of 0 on the gauge.

If you have a plastic bottle under pressure and you try to squeeze the sides of it, you find it's pretty solid, right?
This means your molecules are pushing against the sides, like you mention. And also the back and also the top.
Now open the top and tell me how easy it is to squeeze.
It's because the flow is now expanding to the breach (bottle top).
It's not exerting any push, only a friction slide down the inside of the bottle.
No, it is because it is no longer under pressure, and it equalises against any pressure change.
It in no way indicates the air isn't pushing against the sides.

As already pointed out, a better example is a balloon. It is held inflated due to the pressure inside. If you magically remove that pressure, the balloon will contract, very quickly.

If what you are saying is true, then as soon as you open the balloon and let the air out, it should collapse to its uninflated size.

But back in reality, when you do such a thing the balloon stays inflated and only slowly decreases in size (with that rate depending on how much air is being let out).

This proves beyond any sane doubt that the air inside is still forcing the balloon outwards, that pressure is still being exerted in all directions.

Too much dissipation of pressure by the pressure not being dense enough to cut through the atmospheric resistance
That "resistance" is what you have repeatedly appealed to to try and explain how rockets work.
Now you are saying it hinders the operation.
Again, this means a rocket should work much better in a vacuum than in air as there is much less resistance to try and cut through.

No it shouldn't instantly be zero.
You need to pay attention.
No, you need to pay attention and start trying to be consistent.

A simple pressure gauge works by measuring how much it is being pushed by the gas.
You are saying that when it is open it should no longer be pushed as the gas magically only pushes towards the opening.
That means it should read 0.
The only way out is to admit that it the pressure does still push out in all directions.

I did pay attention to your diagram. And your diagram still doesn't address the fact that the pressure inside the container is still pushing off all sides even when the valve is opened. So it's pushing. Even from the gauge side.
It's not pushing off all sides.

Once there is a breach the pushing is all expansion to the breach, in turn.
Think of it like a funnel.

Then the gauge at the top would immediately show zero pressure. It wouldn't drop. If it immediately when to zero, a balloon would immediately completely collapse when the end is opened. Please explain how there can still be pressure yet it has decided not to be pushing in all directions?

To do that you'll have to start looking at how a spring works.

Take a look at this spring being allowed to expand out of the front and also take a look at the untethered back end of the spring.
It is not compressing against the back of the magazine. It follows an expansion out of the magazine.

This is what gas does on expansion.

Think about it carefully.

Oh wow look at that.
JackB and i both independently understood what you incorrectly said and provided very similar corrections.
Who s wrong?
Both of you.

Aah
Then if we re wrong means you have an answer better than "it is because it is".
Why doesnt the rocket go higher if we put more sponges into it?
Too much dissipation of pressure by the pressure not being dense enough to cut through the atmospheric resistance in the stack directly below the expansion of rocket gas.

The spring doesn't explain it. It is still applying pressure to the closed end. If you opened both ends at the same time, the spring would shoot out both ends.

What you can't explain is why with a gas it is still applying pressure on all sides when the container is breached at one end. And if it's applying pressure on all sides it is pushing. Hence the balloon does not immediately collapse when an end is opened.



Your spring does not cover this scenario. So what does? Think about it carefully.

No it's not showing what you are saying is correct because you're not addressing the issue with it. The issue is the gas it is still applying pressure on all sides when the container is breached at one end. You have admitted to this by the gauge at the top end dropping, not immediately going to zero.  And if it's applying pressure on all sides it is pushing. And as evidenced by the fact that the balloon does not immediately collapse when an end is opened. So it's pushing off of all sides, therefore it's pushing off the top. Which you had previously said it was not. But it is.

If it's pushing off the top of the container then it is pushing the container. If it's pushing the container, the container can move. If the container can move, it can move side to side, up, down, depending upon which way it's oriented. If the container can move by being pushed from the pressure on the inside it doesn't need to push off the atmosphere to move.

You meed to explain how there can be pressure pressing on all sides of the inside of the container and NOT getting a push as a result. What negates the push?

It's not about being too thick to get it.
It's most likely that people find it hard to deviate from their general thoughts on how they've been told to perceive how and why rockets work and also work in a so called vacuum.

That's not down to being thick, it's down to trusting a model and what they believe is the correct science behind how it actually works.
Not a lot of people will entertain the thought of being duped.

The major problem with my explanations are from being too simple for those who are used to dealing with equations as their yardstick and  a refusal to actually entertain simple logic and simple analogies to that logic.
It likely embarrasses them in one way and also most likely skews their thoughts on the actual person or person's trying to force change their science world as they perceive it...so they basically put the shield up and use every avenue to deflect alternate theories/hypotheses or general musings.

The key for anyone who wants to learn is to look at the simplicity and attempt to marry it all up. Even if it's done for fun measure.
Nobody's forcing or even asking anyone to follow alternate models.

I refer to logic in the simplest form as in a bus near full of scientists and one small kid, being stuck in a tunnel due to the roof of the bus being too high for the tunnel.

The scientists get out their notepads and start to write down equations and take measurements of the bus and tunnel and working out the curve of the tunnel and the shape of the bus.
They manage to fill a notebook full of equations as to the best way to see this bus navigate this tunnel.

The kid jumps from the bus, looks up to the roof of the tunnel and at the bus, then looks down.
The kid then proceeds to let out air from the tyres. A few seconds from each tyre and the bus is on its way out of the tunnel.

Basically what I'm saying is, too many people look for the intricate routes when the simplicity of the shortcut is staring you in the face.

It's not pushing off all sides.
Repeatedly asserting the same falsehoods wont help you.
If you want to claim it isn't pushing off all sides then you need to explain how the pressure gauge works with nothing pushing on it (which is fundamentally how simple pressure gauges work) and you need to explain how a balloon stays inflated against the skin trying to collapse it with nothing pushing on it to keep it inflated, and how shrapnel from a bomb can be accelerated with nothing pushing on it, and how rockets in an atmosphere can accelerate with nothing pushing on it.

Simple observations show you are completely wrong and that even when there is an opening gas still pushes outwards in all directions.

Pay attention to what's being said. You're mixing it up.
I am paying attention and I'm not mixing anything up.

Showing that you are contradicting yourself by bringing up to of your "explanations" which directly contradict each other is not mixing things up. It is showing the massive problems in your model.

I've wiped the rest of your stuff because it's clear to see what your game is.
Yes, it is clear to see that my game is to show the truth and expose the problems with your model. But you can't have that. You don't want to admit your model is wrong, so you will just ignore everything that does.

It is clear that I am quite happy to expose multiple problems and show how your claims to try and solve one problem directly contradict another claim of yours.
You can't handle that so you will just ignore what I say to pretend you haven't been refuted yet again.

From this point on deal with one thing at a time.
Already tried that with you. You started ignoring me. So no, I will continue to expose everything wrong with your claims.

If you want to just deal with one thing at a time, then tell me what the gas is pushing off which allows it to move in a vaccuum.
If you want to say it is itself, you need to explain how the rocket can't just push off itself.
If you want to say it is the other gas, then you need to explain how the rocket can't push off the gas.
If you want to say it is the rocket, then you need to explain why it isn't pushed away by the gas.
If you don't have an answer then you need to admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

To do that you'll have to start looking at how a spring works.
Yes, where we notice that if you do not keep a force applied to the spring, it will move back to its "natural" length.
That means that if the gas isn't pushing against the pressure gauge, it will read 0.

If you need an example of how it works in reality, take a look at this slinky video (there are plenty of others out there):


Notice that when it is released, the slinky doesn't just decide to all start moving down like you want to pretend. Instead the slinky is under tension. The bottom of it will remain held up by that tension until the tension is relaxed.

Think carefully, because what you are saying makes no sense.

concentrate on what my theory says.
You have no theory to concentrate on. You have a bunch of contradictory claims, plenty of which contradict reality.

It's most likely that people find it hard to deviate from their general thoughts on how they've been told
No, it's most likely that people find it hard to deviate from reality and move towards self-contrdictory nonsense.

It isn't down to being thick.
It is down to your model being wrong and you being unable to explain anything without contradicting reality or yourself.

Basically what I'm saying is, too many people look for the intricate routes when the simplicity of the shortcut is staring you in the face.
Yes, you do like looking for the intricate routes when the simplicity of reality is staring you in the face.

The simple reality of rockets working in space:
Gas pushes rocket one way, rocket push gas the other way.
No need for any complicated garbage.
Rockets work in space.

Expansion begins only AFTER one end is open.
Which I've already explained.

You just tried to avoid the fact that the said expansion goes in all direction, including the push on the sealed end.
Nope. I've already explained all directions when contained and one direction when breached container allows expansion.

You are trying to hide the fact that the expansion continues in all direction all the time.

 I explained what happens, now tell me why you think I'm wrong.

Fair enough, I explained what I was asking for, but I probably muddied it with the balloon. So back to the container with the valve on one end, the gauge on the other.

The gauge at the top registers the internal pressure, the valve at the bottom is closed. Pressure inside is pushing in all directions within the container. The valve is opened. The pressure gauge on top starts to drop as gas is exiting the valve. If the gauge is still registering a drop and doesn't instantaneously go right to zero:

Pressure is still pushing off the top of the container where the gauge is which means the pressure is pushing against the container. If it's pushing against the container, the container can move. If the container can move, it can move side to side, up, down, depending upon which way it's oriented. If the container can move by being pushed from the pressure on the inside it doesn't need to push off the atmosphere to move.

You need to explain how there can be pressure pressing on all sides of the inside of the container and NOT getting a push as a result. What negates the push? Where does that pressure go?

You not understanding
People realising you are wrong doesn't mean they don't understand.

I shot it down by telling you the gauge pressure lowers.
No, you shot nothing down. You just avoided it.
If the gas magically stopped applying pressure, the pressure would drop to 0, not some lower value, 0, as there would be no pressure applied to the gauge.

In order to have the gauge read a value, you need to accept pressure is still being applied to it, meaning you need to reject your claim that pressure just magically pushes to the opening.

Now you've changed up to a balloon and are arguing that against this container.
They're two entirely different things.
While they are not the same, they show the same problem.
If what you are saying is true, and that as soon as there is an opening the pressure will magically just push towards it, then the balloon cannot remain inflated and would need to shrink basically instantly, regardless of how slowly the air is released.
If what you are saying is true, and that as soon as there is an opening the pressure will magically just push towards it, then the pressure gauge cannot remain showing a pressure and instead must show 0.
In order for the balloon to remain inflated, pressure needs to push outwards on it, not just towards the opening.
In order the the pressure gauge to read a pressure, pressure needs to push outwards on it, not just towards the opening.

I explained what happens, now tell me why you think I'm wrong.
We have told you why you are wrong, repeatedly. You just repeatedly ignore it.

Again, the only way for the gauge to read a pressure is if the pressure was pushing against it. You say the pressure only pushes to the opening.
That is why you are wrong.

So why are you arguing with me?
Because unlike you I care about the truth and will object when I see people spouting nonsense.

Now have you figured out an answer to any of the multitude of problems you have been presented with; an answer which doesn't contradict yourself?

Preferably one which addresses the topic of this thread:
tell me what the gas is pushing off which allows it to move in a vaccuum.
If you want to say it is itself, you need to explain how the rocket can't just push off itself.
If you want to say it is the other gas, then you need to explain how the rocket can't push off the gas.
If you want to say it is the rocket, then you need to explain why it isn't pushed away by the gas.
If you don't have an answer then you need to admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

The gauge at the top registers the internal pressure, the valve at the bottom is closed. Pressure inside is pushing in all directions within the container.
I'm happy with this explanation so we can put this one to bed.

Quote from: Stash
The valve is opened. The pressure gauge on top starts to drop as gas is exiting the valve. If the gauge is still registering a drop and doesn't instantaneously go right to zero:
And nor should it.
It's a gradual expansion of molecules starting at the breach/opening and every stack of molecules directly behind those going out that breach.....meaning you have a chain reaction.

The emptying of the container is solely down to the external resistance of the molecules against that opening...or to make it simpler....atmospheric pressure.

Quote from: Stash
Pressure is still pushing off the top of the container where the gauge is which means the pressure is pushing against the container.
Not when it's breached.


Quote from: Stash
If it's pushing against the container, the container can move. If the container can move, it can move side to side, up, down, depending upon which way it's oriented. If the container can move by being pushed from the pressure on the inside it doesn't need to push off the atmosphere to move.
It's not pushed from the pressure on the inside.
It's pushed by the release of that pressure against the external resistant atmosphere, creating a gas on gas fight.

Quote from: Stash
You need to explain how there can be pressure pressing on all sides of the inside of the container and NOT getting a push as a result. What negates the push? Where does that pressure go?
The pressure is a chain reaction against a resistance of external pressure.

Rocket gas in this case of a water rocket is just regular air, squeszed and crushed so more sponges are in the container.


Disspation means expansion of sponges?

Pressure is compression level of the sponges.

Density (denP) means the sponges have displaced a certain amount of air giving it "weight".
What does the exiting sponge air denP weight have to do with the denP wieght of air below it in the external sponge stack?
Why does it have to "cut through" when your spring on spring or two guys standing on each other in a rocket analogies describe liftoff as sponges on sponges expanding up.

Quote from: Themightykabool

In terms of the sponges it means equalisation. Basically becoming irrelevant to work done.
In a nutshell it's exhaust in the proper sense, not in the fiery sense what is told about a rocket thrust.
Let's not worry about this bit as of yet as it will skew what could potentially be a major grasp for you.

Quote from: Themightykabool

Correct.

Quote from: Themightykabool

Correct.

Quote from: Themightykabool
What does the exiting sponge air denP weight have to do with the denP wieght of air below it in the external sponge stack?
Nothing.
The air below it is one part of a stack that any dense mass would be up against...assuming a hanging object where the bottom sits atop of one part of the stack which is doing nothing more than being the calm surface, if you like.
It only comes into play when the object is pushed into it, which is when resistance comes into play, whether it's a rocket burn or a water bottle rocket thrust or merely a object dropped from a point of potential energy hold....for instance a hanging object on a string that is cut.

It's important to know all of this so what I say becomes relevant and your mind doesn't kick into thinking I'm contradicting myself.



Quote from: Themightykabool
Why does it have to "cut through" when your spring on spring or two guys standing on each other in a rocket analogies describe liftoff as sponges on sponges expanding up.
To give you a simple analogy (and take it as that and do not use it as an argument) we'll imagine a bus that is sealed off and inside it are people all crammed in to such an extent they have to fight to stop themselves being crushed.
Imagine if they could survive being crushed smaller.
Ok so now you can imagine that...if the bus was sealed at each end, the crush would be even from back to front. Even pressure hitting both sealed off exits and also everyone squashed against the side walls and ceiling of that bus, plus floor.

Ok we both know this as being a sealed container of pressure, right, so let's see what happens.

Outside of that bus are a crowd of people who are body to body and slightly compressing into each other all around That bus and also stood on top of each other and also on top of the bus with people stood on top of them...and so on.
Under the bus there would be a few laid under it but not being squashed more than the rest because the bus wheels hold back the dense mass on it by using a solid ground.

Ok, so what we know is, the people inside the bus are itching to decompress. They're trying to break open the bus at its weakest point (assume windowless...let's not add in issues).
Suddenly the back door is breached and the compressed people in that bus start to decompress against the looser compression of the external crowd and manage to push some out of the way which compresses them into the people behind them.
However, inside the bus, the people behind the first out can also decompress as they push and are pushed into the first.
The one behind does the same.
By this time it will be noted that the bus is moving in the opposite direction and all the work done at the first decompression is filled by the falling people from above who fill the void that the first decompressed person created by compressing the crowd back...which as you know were less compressed at first.

Now this keeps happening because there's so many people crammed into the bus and it becomes each person expanding out and expanded into the back of.
As a little time goes on, the expansion inside the bus will become less and less as more people are pushed out.

To give you a simple analogy (and take it as that and do not use it as an argument) we'll imagine a bus that is sealed off and inside it are people all crammed in to such an extent they have to fight to stop themselves being crushed.
Imagine if they could survive being crushed smaller.
Ok so now you can imagine that...if the bus was sealed at each end, the crush would be even from back to front. Even pressure hitting both sealed off exits and also everyone squashed against the side walls and ceiling of that bus, plus floor.

Ok we both know this as being a sealed container of pressure, right, so let's see what happens.

Outside of that bus are a crowd of people who are body to body and slightly compressing into each other all around That bus and also stood on top of each other and also on top of the bus with people stood on top of them...and so on.
Under the bus there would be a few laid under it but not being squashed more than the rest because the bus wheels hold back the dense mass on it by using a solid ground.

Ok, so what we know is, the people inside the bus are itching to decompress. They're trying to break open the bus at its weakest point (assume windowless...let's not add in issues).
Suddenly the back door is breached and the compressed people in that bus start to decompress against the looser compression of the external crowd and manage to push some out of the way which compresses them into the people behind them.
However, inside the bus, the people behind the first out can also decompress as they push and are pushed into the first.
The one behind does the same.
By this time it will be noted that the bus is moving in the opposite direction and all the work done at the first decompression is filled by the falling people from above who fill the void that the first decompressed person created by compressing the crowd back...which as you know were less compressed at first.

Now this keeps happening because there's so many people crammed into the bus and it becomes each person expanding out and expanded into the back of.
As a little time goes on, the expansion inside the bus will become less and less as more people are pushed out.

Now here's the key.

Quote from: Stash
The valve is opened. The pressure gauge on top starts to drop as gas is exiting the valve. If the gauge is still registering a drop and doesn't instantaneously go right to zero:
And nor should it.
In reality, yes, as the pressure is still pushing on the gauge, because it doesn't just magically go straight out towards the opening and stopping every other direction.
For your model, it should go to 0, because you claim that the pressure is no longer pushing against it and thus the pressure it is measuring is 0.

You seriously need to make up your mind.
Is the pressure still pushing upwards on the gauge allowing it to read a pressure, or is it only pushing towards the opening, meaning no pressure on the gauge, meaning the gauge will read 0?

It's pushed by the release of that pressure against the external resistant atmosphere, creating a gas on gas fight.
HOW?
The only thing it is in contact with to push it to create a reading is the gas on the inside.
If that gas is not pushing against it (like you claim) then it will read 0.
Try explaining just what else is pushing on it and how.


I know they don't understand (including you) by the questions being asked.
You mean you know they show you are wrong, so you feel a need to insult them and dismiss you.

By the questions they are asking it is quite clear that they do understand your claims and realise your claims are wrong.

There are no contradictions.
There are so many it isn't funny.
You ignoring them doesn't magically make them go away.
Your inability or unwillingness to answer very simple questions which expose these contradictions shows you know there are contradictions and you have no rational solution to remove the contradiction which doesn't show your model is wrong.

If there weren't contradictions you could easily answer these questions you repeatedly avoid.

To give you a simple analogy (and take it as that and do not use it as an argument)
If you don't want an analogy you provide to be used against your model do not provide it.
If your analogy has a massive error in it for the application of it to gas or the like, it will be pointed out.

imagine a bus that is sealed off and inside it are people all crammed in to such an extent they have to fight to stop themselves being crushed.
This would be a liquid, not a gas.

Try it without the air outside.
You have the people pushing outwards in every direction trying to get more room.
Also note that these people are not intelligent in any way (unless you wish to claim gas is sentient), and they have no desire to leave the bus. All they want is to get more space.
So they are pushing outwards in every direction, including against the bus.
But the bus doesn't move because that pressure is equal.

Now the door opens at the front and a few people get pushed out by the people behind them trying to get more room.
The people at the back and still pushing outwards in every direction, because what has happened at the front hasn't gotten back to them in the form of less compressed people in front of them.
That means the gas is still pushing outwards in all directions.
However at the front, the door is open and the bus no longer has people pushing against the door.
Instead those that would normally try to push against it fall out of the bus/get pushed out by the people behind them.

This means the force on the bus is no longer equal and thus the bus moves.

This forcing continues through the rocket, with more people slowly getting pushed out, developing a pressure gradient across the rocket, such that the pressure is much larger at the back than the front.
This keeps pushing the bus.
It is only once the pressure has equalised (i.e. dropped to basically 0) that the bus stops having a force exerted.

But instead of allowing that, we will make it more like a conventional chemical fuel rocket.
We don't just have a static number of people now.
Instead we are dumping more people into the bus, at the back of the bus.
This makes the pressure there higher and pushes people in the middle towards the front of the bus.
We can even throw in a nozzle, but that is getting more complicated.

Notice how when done properly, this ridiculous analogy still shows that rockets work in a vacuum.

To do what you claim, you have these dumb people that are pushing outwards in every direction to try and get more space suddenly stop and just push towards the door, even though they have no idea where that door is, nor any desire to actually go through the door.

Read this carefully, seriously.
Absorb what's been said because you're getting no closer to understanding by just ignoring everything that shows you are wrong.

When it's pushed out of the rocket opening under massive pressure against the atmospheric stack directly under it.
The air would be able to do that as well.
So why the water?
Just what is the water doing that the air couldn't?

And have you thought of a solution to your massive problems yet?
For the pressure gauge and the balloon, how does the gauge still read a pressure and the balloon stay stretched out when it needs the gas inside to push against it in order to do so, which you said does not happen?

For the cold gas thruster, What the gas is pushing off which allows it to move in a vacuum?
If you want to say it is itself, you need to explain how the rocket can't just push off itself.
If you want to say it is the other gas, then you need to explain how the rocket can't push off the gas.
If you want to say it is the rocket, then you need to explain why it isn't pushed away by the gas.
If you don't have an answer then you need to admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

Contradiction:

Quote from: Stash
Pressure is still pushing off the top of the container where the gauge is which means the pressure is pushing against the container.

Not when it's breached.

If the gauge is still registering pressure after the breach then pressure must still be exerting on the gauge for it to have a reading. So how can you say on the the one hand, the gauge is still reading pressure after the breach yet on the other hand no pressure is being applied to the gauge after the breach?

Air can do it but the air alone is dissipated very quickly against the stack which gives very little gas on gas push to lift the rocket.

I'm not dodging anything. I've explained the water but you're dodging that issue.

Water is much more dense and is not easily dissipated into the atmospheric stack. It manages to be pushed harder into it to compress that stack much more than just air alone would.

I have a feeling you're going to slip right back to square one soon enough.

You simply refuse to grasp it.

Once the valve is opened the gauge now starts to reads a continuous lowering of pressure on the gauge. It means the gauge is not under pressure, it's losing that pressure because everything is expanding out.

How?
Massive expansion at the valve opening and gradually less expansion of molecules all the way to close to the gauge side, all pushing one way, which is why the gauge pointer continues to read lower and lower pressure.

Only if the gauge reading shows gain or still pressure.
In case of the breach it does neither. It shows continuous loss.

I didn't say it was still reading pressure. I said the pointer shows a lowering of the pressure by the pointer in a continuous motion, meaning it flows/expands away from the gauge, not at it.

But while there is still expanding molecules pushing each other out of the container at the opposite end, the gauge pointer has to wait its turn to follow suit, which it does by showing a continuous lowering towards the zero of the pointer, until it reads zero pressure, or equalises the external atmosphere.

It isn't pushing against the gauge at this point, unless the valve is closed and expansion is stopped and so would the needle, which means the pressure becomes equalised inside the container and shows as a still needle reading..

It doesn't make sense to you because you're refusing to allow it to.

You refuse to understand that the expansion of molecules out of the opening means there is a chain reaction of expansion all the way to the back in different stages of expansion from larger at the front to smaller at the back.
All molecules using each other.

As each bunch of molecules expand, the gauge simple expands with them and starts to slowly move towards the zero, until expansion ceases.

There is nothing pushing back at the gauge. The gauge itself is decompressing along with the decompressing gas molecules.

No
Im not going to slip
Im going to poiint out your contradictions.


Why would it matter water push a stack of sponges better and more than compressed sponges in the tube?

Your claim is the rocket rises, sitting on the exiting and expanding sponges.

A regular outside sponge has a hypothetical diameter of 1 unit, and a compressed sppnge, upon exiting, will balloon out to 1unit and lift the rocket 1 unit off the ground.
If you can squish more sponges into the tube, the rocket should lift higher.
All sponges are sitting stacked up.
If the dissipation/ sponge expansion is too fast, well that just means the rocjet will fly up even faster.

That
Or your theory is wrong and the very calculatable mass flow rate of water leaving the rocket is correct, rockets dont rely on sitting on air, and rockets do work in a vacuum.

The rocket rises by sitting atop the super compressed sponges by that thrust expansion of sponges creating a massive recompression from decompression. Action and reaction of gases.

A regular outside sponge has a hypothetical diameter of 1 unit, and a compressed sppnge, upon exiting, will balloon out to 1unit and lift the rocket 1 unit off the ground.
If you can squish more sponges into the tube, the rocket should lift higher.
All sponges are sitting stacked up.
If the dissipation/ sponge expansion is too fast, well that just means the rocjet will fly up even faster.
Yes, if the sponge expansion is more rapid it means more external compression of atmosphere, which means more resistance to it and bigger crush back against that thrusting/super expanding gas.

Quote from: Themightykabool
That
Or your theory is wrong and the very calculatable mass flow rate of water leaving the rocket is correct, rockets dont rely on sitting on air, and rockets do work in a vacuum.
Clearly they don't work in the fantasy vacuum. It really should be obvious.

None of you even explain how it actually works in this vacuum, you simply say it ejects gas into nothing and in doing so it pushes the other way but never a reason for why.

However this bit isn't what we'r dealing with as of yet.
It's showing why rockets cannot work by my explanation. I think I've more than explained but it doesn't seem to be enough.
So carry on gaining an understanding and get as basic as you can to get to the crux for yourselves.
I know exactly what i'm talking about and there's absolutely no contradictions from my part.

Again, logically, this makes no sense. If the gauge is reading anything, there is pressure causing the reading. That's the sole purpose of a gauge. If there is no pressure, the gauge reads 0.
It doesn't make sense to you because you're refusing to allow it to.

You refuse to understand that the expansion of molecules out of the opening means there is a chain reaction of expansion all the way to the back in different stages of expansion from larger at the front to smaller at the back.
All molecules using each other.

As each bunch of molecules expand, the gauge simple expands with them and starts to slowly move towards the zero, until expansion ceases.

There is nothing pushing back at the gauge. The gauge itself is decompressing along with the decompressing gas molecules.

If there is no pressure against the pressure gauge the pressure gauge reads 0. That's what pressure gauges do, they read pressure. Anything above 0 is pressure.

When you yank the hose of your bicycle tire pump off the tire, the gauge doesn't go down in a progressive manner, it immediately jams down to 0. If it read anything above 0 there is still pressure, hence a pressure reading above 0.

If you were able to plug the tube end up mid flight, the pressure reading would show a pressure because there are still compressed spongss in the tube and these sponges are pushing out in alk directions.
All directions.
Is why the gauge shows a reading.
Because something is pushing on it.

Right, but you just said this: "There is nothing pushing back at the gauge."

Now you're saying this: "Is why the gauge shows a reading. Because something is pushing on it."

How is that not a contradiction? Which is it?

Because you're getting mixed up with a sealed pressurised container and an open end container.
The sealed pressurised container with the gauge will naturally read a set pressure because it literally is gas pushing gas pushing container and gauge, in equal terms.

Deal with the exit valve opening and forget about the sealed pressure for now.

We've dealt with what you think happens at the exit valve end. What you haven't dealt with is what happens at the gauge end. In one breath you're saying there is no pressure on the gauge end, yet the gauge reads pressure, and in another breath you're saying there is pressure at the gauge end, hence it's properly reading a pressure.

In one breath you're saying there is no pressure on the gauge end, yet the gauge reads pressure, and in another breath you're saying there is pressure at the gauge end, hence it's properly reading a pressure. A contradiction.
Let's get familiar with the gauge reading pressure and not reading pressure.

To read a consistent pressure the compressed gas is sealed and is pushing into the gauge diaphragm/piston/spring or whatever, which pushes a pointer clockwise to get a set reading.

If you were to push in more air the gauge would start to read more clockwise pressure in a continuous push of that needle to read pressure gain.

All push and no arguments.

But we're not dealing with this.

We are dealing with what happens when the valve is opened and the gauge is no longer being pushed in  the opposite direction.
There is no energy being exerted towards the gauge when the opposite valve is opened to allow gas expansion into external atmosphere.

Another simple analogy.

If you compressed a spring into a tube and at the top of the inside of the tube was a piston that the spring compressed against.
This piston pushes a pointer inside a gauge to measure that spring compression.
You seal the container with that compressed spring in and you clearly see the piston has pushed to pointer up to  (for instance) max compression.
Now you open the container and allow the spring to decompress. It can only decompress in one direction which is out of the exit, but you will see a gradual decompression of the spring all the way to the back where it touched the piston but now the piston if simple following a decompressing spring in the opposite direction by simply being no more than a ceiling for that spring, without push back against it.

The way you're likely looking at it is in thinking that once the exit is opened the gases are still pushing in opposite direction against each end of the tank.
They aren't.
They are using the energy applied to them in terms of being compressed and are now decompressing naturally but are still all attached.

What takes the hit is the gases all expanding all the way to the gauge but as this happens, they're all expanding into each other and the gauge is merely tailgating (if you like) them.

In other words all the arrows are pointing towards the exit in their many many different expansion rates from exit hole to gauge.

Air can do it but the air alone is dissipated very quickly against the stack which gives very little gas on gas push to lift the rocket.
Why?
Why is the air dissipated so much more quickly than the water?


I'm not dodging anything.
You are dodging so much it isn't funny.
You are yet to answer plenty of simple questions which show your claims to be nonsense.

Water is much more dense and is not easily dissipated into the atmospheric stack. It manages to be pushed harder into it
This should mean it works worse than just air.

I don't need to make up my mind. It's made up and is consistent.
No, it isn't consistent. You repeatedly contradict yourself.
That was just one simple example.

I grasp it quite well. All your insults do is show you have no case.
All you repeatedly ignoring large amounts of contradictions does is show you have no case.

Again, there are 2 options:
The pressure continues to push up even though the valve is open, or it does not.
If it doesn't, then there will be no reading on the pressure gauge.

The gauge has a spring always trying to force it back to its equilibrium position. If it is away from that (i.e. reading pressure), then there will be a force pushing it straight to there. If there is no force to counteract that, then it will move back, very quickly, and show a reading of 0 pressure.
In order to have it not go to 0, you need a force to counteract the force from the spring, to hold it in place.

So again, either there is force on the gauge from the gas, or the gauge reads 0. They are your only 2 options.
There is no alternative.

It means the gauge is not under pressure
WRONG!
As already pointed out, HOW DOES IT HAVE A READING IF IT ISN'T UNDER PRESSURE?

If it wasn't under pressure, it would read 0.
The only way for it to read a pressure is if it is still under pressure.

So again, is it under pressure or not?
If it isn't, the gauge reads 0. If it is, then the pressure is still exerting outwards in all directions.

Until you make up your mind and either say that the pressure is still exerting outwards in all directions, or that the gauge will read 0, you have not made up your mind nor are you being consistent.

The gauge can only read zero when it's allowed to get to that point.
Yes, by things no longer exerting pressure on it.
While there is still gas in the container, it is still exerting a pressure on the gauge, and thus it doesn't read 0.
But with your nonsense, there is no more pressure on the gauge and it can instantly read 0.
No need to wait for any equalisation because your gas is sentient and knows to only push towards the exit.

The whole point of equalising pressure is that there is still more pressure inside (exerting outwards in all directions) than the pressure outside.

The sealed pressurised container with the gauge will naturally read a set pressure
It will read a set pressure because the pressure can't change as it is closed.
If instead you heat it up, the pressure will increase. If you cool it down, the pressure will decrease.

If the valve is open, then the pressure reading will drop, because the pressure inside is dropping.
This pressure inside is still pushing against the gauge to produce a reading, but as the gas escapes, it will drop.

Perhaps this one will be better for you:
Take a nice gas tank with a pressure gauge on one end and a valve on the other.
Cool it down, a lot, but not enough to liquefy the gas.
Now open the valve a little bit and heat the container up.
What do you think would happen to the gauge?

Let's get familiar with the gauge reading pressure and not reading pressure.
Try to do it accurately.
If the gauge is reading a pressure, then there is a force from the gas pushing against the gauge.
If there is no force pushing against the gauge, then the reading is 0.

If the pressure pushing against the gauge is constant, the reading is constant.
If the pressure is changing, the reading changes.

There is no energy being exerted towards the gauge
All that means is that the reading wont increase.
That doesn't mean that pressure isn't still being exerted towards the gauge.

Another simple analogy.
Considering how many of your "simple analogies" have already been corrected to show you are wrong, why don't you stop with them and actually deal with the issue at hand?

It's decompressing naturally.
No, its not.
If you want to see it decompressing naturally, remove the gauge from the tank.
You will see it very quickly drop to 0.
It slowly dropping as air escapes the tank shows that it is still reading the pressure inside the tank, which is still pushing outwards in all directions.

The pressure when set was potential energy reading.
That is one way to think about it.
But it doesn't negate the fact that it still need pressure pushing against it to not read 0.

Why would it matter water push a stack of sponges better and more than compressed sponges in the tube?
Your claim is the rocket rises, sitting on the exiting and expanding sponges.
Nope.

If the dissipation/ sponge expansion is too fast, well that just means the rocjet will fly up even faster.
Yes, if the sponge expansion is more rapid it means more external compression of atmosphere, which means more resistance to it and bigger crush back against that thrusting/super expanding gas.

Incorrect.
When air ceases to prwss on the gauge it shows zero.
If some presses on the gauge it shows a reading.

If yoyr sprig fully compressssd showed a reading of 16units.
And you opened the one end and allowed the spirng to decompress half way, cut the spring, closed the cap, the gauge woukd read 4.(because conventional physics uses the sq law).

Totally different argument.
No, the same argument.
The pressure gauge trying to return to 0 is mediated by similar forces to the balloon trying to shrink.
Both are objects which have been pushed away from their natural, relaxed state by the pressure of the air.
Both have a force trying to push them back as a result of this unnatural state.
Both can remain as they are with the pressure inside pushing outwards towards them with a constant force.
Both will very quickly return to their natural state if there is nothing pushing them out.

Both show you are wrong, and that gas does still push outwards in all directions, rather than being sentient and magically pushing towards the exit.

This is what happens to a balloon when it can relax naturally:

You already have a video of it deflating.
Notice how the deflation is much slower and takes a lot longer for the balloon to relax.
This shows that while there is still pressurised air inside it, it is still pushing against the balloon, keeping it inflated.

And that's the problem.
Yes, that's the problem FOR YOU.

Real physics can explain the purpose of the water quite well.

Water density aided by internal compressed air push into it to thrust it against the stack below the direct breach.
And air would do that as well.

Again, your model only makes sense to say water works better than air, if you admit that the resistance of the atmosphere is a problem, or if you admit that the exhaust can be what is being "pushed" against.
But that would mean that rockets work better in space.
If you want to appeal to the resistance of the atmosphere, then an air based rocket would work better than a water based one.

It's literally the same argument. Yet another contradiction.

- Air in a balloon pushing on all sides
- Compressed gas in a container pushing on all sides

- Open the valve on the balloon, according to scepti, it should instantaneously collapse. It doesn't.
- Open the valve on the container, according to scepti, it should still register pressure on the opposite end (where the gauge is) yet not be applying any pressure to the gauge. Magic.

This is so logically inconsistent it's beyond compare. Pick a lane. And don't go down the "we don't get it thing..." That's tired and haggard. And inappropriate. We get it. It's literally that your explanations are inconsistent with reality and with themselves. They are contradictions.

The water rocket works because it doesnt rely on pushing against air.
Its a well proven, well calculateable, well repeatable, well predictable experiment.
Your insistence that the rocket needs to push against air has been disproven by your own theory and your inability to explain beyond "its called a water rocket therefore it requires water" has failed on every level.
Unless you can show why rockets sit on stacked air sponges causes them to go up AND how water plays a part, your analogies are useless.
We dpnt need analogies, we need a straight up descriptiom.

Heres one -

Water rockets fly up because the air sponges exhausted expand to their decompressed and natural size, lifting the rocket into the air to the expectdd height of the amount of squish provided to the air sponges inside the tube.
The water acts as a go-between foudation between the exhausted air sponges and the regular air sponges.
The water sits on the outside stack air sponges while the compressed spong air uses the water as a springbaord and is given time to expand and shoot the rocket up.

BUT
by that theory, it doesnt make sense because the rocket is set on the ground which is already a foundation and replacing water with more sponges would make the rocket less dense (denP)/ lighter and so it should go higher with more compressed sponges inside and less displaced sponges above.

Perhaps you could draw a simple diagram that shows the tube, the compressed air, the water, the outside normal air.

Then draw arrows showing what the water does.

And then compare that with a diagram without the air.
How about you draw one showing what you think and I'll alter it to show what I'm saying.

Here is another simple diagram for you to get completely wrong:
(https://i.imgur.com/yDbXPgb.png)
This is a membrane being pushed to the right by a spring.
If there is nothing pushing it to the left, what would happen?
Will it very quickly go to the right until the spring has relaxed?
Or will it go very slowly?
Or will it magically depend upon something else?
It depends what you are talking about in terms of what is actually behind the membrane.
If it's air behind it then it will be compressed by the decompression of the spring. In which case the spring will start of fairly rapid in decompression and then gradually slow as the air is compressed by it.

If there is extreme low pressure of air behind that membrane then the spring will rapidly expand into it  because there's extremely tiny resistance.

How is a spring like a gas? A spring is expandable end to end. A gas is expandable in all directions. The two seem yards apart as far as analogies go.

When air ceases to press on the gauge it shows zero.
Only if it showed zero to start with.
If not then the gauge would simply show a consistent counter action of the needle as the molecules decompress away from pushing it.

Quote from: Themightykabool
If some presses on the gauge it shows a reading.
Yep, which would happen if pressure is held against it, as in pushing air into it  or pushing air into it and containing that air.
Not when air is allowed to decompress.

Quote from: Themightykabool
If your spring fully compressed showed a reading of 16 units.
And you opened the one end and allowed the spring to decompress half way, cut the spring, closed the cap, the gauge would read 4.(because conventional physics uses the sq law).
Yep, because you have allowed decompression of the spring and then stopped it and sealed it, meaning that spring now shows the reading right after that decompression of the moving needle that has now stopped counter moving, leaving a set reading much smaller.

I have no issue with this.

This is what happens to a balloon when it can relax naturally:

You already have a video of it deflating.
Notice how the deflation is much slower and takes a lot longer for the balloon to relax.
This shows that while there is still pressurised air inside it, it is still pushing against the balloon, keeping it inflated.

It's not being pushed against the balloon from the inside. It's being crushed from the outside as it decompresses against the atmosphere via the nozzle.

A pressure reading on a gauge shows the pressure on the gauge. It's called a pressure gauge because it registers pressure on the gauge. If there is no pressure, the pressure gauge registers 0. If there is pressure on the gauge, the gauge registers the pressure on the gauge greater than 0.

Are you seriously trying to state that if a pressure gauge shows greater than 0 there is no pressure applied to the gauge?

It's literally the same argument. Yet another contradiction.

- Air in a balloon pushing on all sides
- Compressed gas in a container pushing on all sides

Not the same argument. There are differences and they need to be dealt with individually so as not to skew.
It's bad enough as it is with you lot not being able to grasp what is being said.

Quote from: Stash

- Open the valve on the balloon, according to scepti, it should instantaneously collapse. It doesn't.
You said that, not me.
I merely argued that it would if up against extreme low pressure.


Quote from: Stash
- Open the valve on the container, according to scepti, it should still register pressure on the opposite end (where the gauge is) yet not be applying any pressure to the gauge. Magic.
It's not registering pressure. The needle is on the counter movement consistently due to the vale being opened at the other end.

That's not a reading of pressure it's a needle decline in numbers only, by sight.

The air inside the ballooon, while being exhausted/ decompressing, is still under pressure!

The water rocket works because it doesnt rely on pushing against air.

It absolutely relies on it, both ways. Top and bottom.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Your insistence that the rocket needs to push against air has been disproven by your own theory and your inability to explain beyond "its called a water rocket therefore it requires water" has failed on every level.
Or your inability or refusal to understand it.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Unless you can show why rockets sit on stacked air sponges causes them to go up AND how water plays a part, your analogies are useless.
Of course they are, to you and your like minded friends.
This is absolutely fine by me because the more I explain, the more that others may gain a better understanding, so I'm fine with that.
Feel free to deck out anytime you want to.

Quote from: Themightykabool
We dpnt need analogies, we need a straight up descriptiom.

Heres one -

Water rockets fly up because the air sponges exhausted expand to their decompressed and natural size, lifting the rocket into the air to the expectdd height of the amount of squish provided to the air sponges inside the tube.
The water acts as a go-between foudation between the exhausted air sponges and the regular air sponges.
The water sits on the outside stack air sponges while the compressed spong air uses the water as a springbaord and is given time to expand and shoot the rocket up.

BUT
by that theory, it doesnt make sense because the rocket is set on the ground which is already a foundation and replacing water with more sponges would make the rocket less dense (denP)/ lighter and so it should go higher with more compressed sponges inside and less displaced sponges above.
But it doesnt.
Because its wrong.
Clearly the rocket is not set on the ground at the breach.
It's elevated and for good reason.

I'm fine with either.

Quote from: Stash

It depends.
As above, there would be pressure.
However, if their is a breach/open valve for decompression then the gauge is not being pushed against to make any higher reading or set reading. It's merely counter moving to follow that decompression.

It depends what you are talking about in terms of what is actually behind the membrane.
Try it in terms of the force on the membrane.

Only if it showed zero to start with.
Nope. If it isn't applying a force to the gauge, the gauge shows 0.

The only way to prevent it returning to 0 very quickly is if there is a force keeping it on.

It's not being pushed against the balloon from the inside.
Again, if that was the case it would very rapidly shrink, just like the balloon that popped.
The fact that it doesn't shows that the air inside is still pushing outwards to hold the balloon out.

There are differences and they need to be dealt with individually so as not to skew.
The differences are irrelavent to the argument.
Both cases show that the air inside is still pressing outwards, not just towards the exit.
Both cases show you are wrong, for the same reason.

The needle is on the counter movement consistently due to the vale being opened at the other end.
It has no connection to the valve other than the air.
The only way it knows the valve is open is that the pressure is slowly dropping.

If you were 100% sure I was wrong you would not be entertaining arguing my theory.
Again, we care about the truth.
We know 100% that you are wrong.

If you weren't wrong, you would be able to answer our questions without repeatedly contradicting yourself.

The gauge pointer merely drops due to following that one way street and has no return pressure as long as it's flowing down that one way street.

You are trying to hide the fact that the expansion continues in all direction all the time.
Do you actually know what you're saying?

Hide it as in how?

As in trying to dismiss the fact that the "head of your sretching man" will keep pressing the sealed end of the container and pushing it away from the center of the total mass of the system.

Out of the container there is no pressure.
Inside there is.
Gas simply gets squeezed from the pressurised area into the non-pressurized.
Force pushing the exiting mass of the gas is action.
The exiting mass pressing back is reaction.
Reaction pushes the rocket in opposite direction.
As simpe as that.

Where do you need "resistance"?
The only role that the missing resistance could have there is to prevent the rocket from bouncing off the mass of the exhaust.

~~~~~

Car pushes itself off the road.
Ship pushes itself off the water.
Plane pushes itself off the air.
Rocket pushes itself off the exhaust gasses.

In your "explanations" those things don't work that way, but in reality they do.

So you accept that pressure gauges need pressure to have a reading.
Absolutely.

And again you ignore basically everything I say which shows you are wrong, and then change my post.

But most importantly you agree.
Guess what, anything above 0 is positive.
That means you have now accepted that in order for the gauge to show anything above 0, there needs to be pressure acting on it.

That means that inside the tank, even with the valve open, there is still pressure acting on the gauge.

The gas isn't sentient and doesn't just magically start pushing towards the opening.

Why wouldn't they?
Because according to you it is pure fiction that has been indoctrinated into people.
Yet it all works, with no inconsistency, unlike your nonsense where you contradict yourself almost every second sentence.

A totally different set up.
Another totally different set up.
But still the same fundamental issue.
The gas is under pressure and is pushing outwards in all directions, not just towards the opening.
It again shows your claims to be wrong.

Try analysing all these situations with the fact that gas under pressure pushes outwards in all directions.
See how well that works to describe them.
You will find no problems.
The only time you believe you come to a problem is when it is then applied to rockets in space, and it means rockets work in space which you reject based upon nothing more than your fantasy.

Your enter denspressure nonsense is set up to try and pretend Earth is flat and rockets don't work in space.
There is literally no need for it. It solves nothing. It contradicts itself and reality. The current known laws of physics work vastly better.


But why don't we get back to the topic at hand considering you seem to be going nowhere with your contradictory claims.
What is the gas pushing against to move?
Again, it can't be itself, or the rocket can push against itself.
It can't be the gas in the middle, or the rocket can push against it as well.
It can't be the rocket or that means the rocket would be pushed away.

So what is it?

It's already squeezed by being pressurised. All it can do not is decompress to do work. It doesn't just squeeze again into a non- pressurised area, it expands into it until it fills that area and only then does it create a compressive reaction to its expansion of which the rocket sits atop of.

Quote from: Macarios
Force pushing the exiting mass of the gas is action.
What force is pushing the exiting mass?
Explain what's happening.

Quote from: Macarios
The exiting mass pressing back is reaction.
Explain what's happening.

Quote from: Macarios
Reaction pushes the rocket in opposite direction.
As simpe as that.
Explain what's happening.

Quote from: Macarios
Where do you need "resistance"?
Life doesn't work without it in any way shape or form.
You're duped into thinking we don;t need it because you accept space rockets.

Quote from: Macarios
The only role that the missing resistance could have there is to prevent the rocket from bouncing off the mass of the exhaust.
Tell me about this bouncing off the mass of the exhaust.


Quote from: Macarios
Car pushes itself off the road.
Not without fuel and air.

Quote from: Macarios
Ship pushes itself off the water.
Not without fuel and air.



Quote from: Macarios
Rocket pushes itself off the exhaust gasses.
Explain how it does this.
Don't just say it just does. Explain what's happening inside the rocket, because outside apparently doesn't exist to a moving rocket, except to expel supposed waste.
So tell me what exactly is happening inside.
Explain it fully so I'm under no illusions.

Quote from: Macarios
In your "explanations" those things don't work that way, but in reality they do.

Guess what, anything above 0 is positive.
That means you have now accepted that in order for the gauge to show anything above 0, there needs to be pressure acting on it.

I agree as long as it's moving forward from that point or is set higher than that 0 point and isn't falling towards that point.



Quote from: JackBlack
That means that inside the tank, even with the valve open, there is still pressure acting on the gauge.
Nope.


Quote from: JackBlack
The gas isn't sentient and doesn't just magically start pushing towards the opening.
It's not magic it's quite simply decompression of molecules that were forcibly squeezed into the container.
They are potential energy in themselves. In each one.
Each molecule is trying to expand but each molecule is stopping that happening with a push on push.
However the molecules nearest the inner container shell are pushing off of that and back into the molecular crowd.
Basically it's equalised pressure and the gauge will show this.

However. Once you open that valve, the molecules at the very opening will expand out of the opening followed by a chain reaction of expansion of each and every other molecule expanding.
The pressure at the back is immediately released and the gauge can decompress which shows the pointer heading towards the zero.

This is all decompression, not pressure against the gauge.
It now becomes pressure against whatever resistance is waiting outside of the valve opening. In this case it would be atmospheric pressure.

No, if the pressure at the back is immediately released the gauge would immediately jam to 0. The gauge wouldn't 'head' toward zero. What would be guiding its 'heading'? The speed and duration of this 'heading'? What would be telling the gauge to head, not jam to 0? If you closed the valve and the gauge had dropped from 100 psi to 50, where did the 50 all of a sudden come from when there was supposedly 0 when the valve was opened yet the gauge read a steady drop from 100 to 50.

If the gauge reads anything above zero it has pressure on it. It's so blatantly fixed in reality that if a gauge is reading a pressure above zero there is a pressure above 0. How only you cannot grasp that is beyond me.

Explain what's happening.
You have already had it explained to you repeatedly. You are the one who needs to do the explaining.

Ignoring the explanations already provided to you, which you have been completely unable to refute, doesn't magically make them go away.
Repeatedly asking for explanations to avoid providing your own doesn't magically get you off the hook.

Currently, mainstream science can easily explain how rockets work, including in a vacuum.
Conversely you and your crazy idea seems to have no explanation at all and instead just have a pile of contradictions.

The simple fact is that in a vacuum gas, that was initially travelling with the rocket, exits the rocket.
This means it changes velocity.
As it has mass this means it has to have a force applied to do so.
This means it needs to push off something.
The only something available is the rocket.
This means it pushes the rocket.
This means the rocket will be accelerated.
This means rockets work in a vacuum.

In order to refute this, without claiming the gas will just sit inside the rocket, you need to explain what the gas is pushing off which isn't the gas itself, nor the rocket, not something the rocket can push off.

Not without fuel and air.
Electric ones don't need fuel and air. They use a battery instead.

But who really cares.
The most common rockets have fuel and air.
They take it with them, such as in the form of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.

Quote from: JackBlack
Guess what, anything above 0 is positive.

I agree as long as it's moving forward from that point or is set higher than that 0 point and isn't falling towards that point.
Pure nonsense.

100 is positive. This is because it is greater than 0.
It doesn't matter if it is staying at 100, increasing to 200, or dropping to 0, it is still positive.

You have admitted that in order for the gauge to have a positive reading, it needs pressure pushing against it.
Now you are contradicting yourself yet again.

The simple, inescapable fact is that if the gauge doesn't have pressure on it, it will read 0 or very quickly (less than a second) drop to 0.

A such, gas in a tank shows that pressure is still acting in all directions.

Forget all your nonsense and garbage.
Explain how the gas know to only push one way.

Is it sentient? Do they all chat among themselves and say that there is an opening they should run towards?
And taking it back to the rocket, what are they pushing off to move?
Again, the only option is the tank/gauge.

So you are back to the same problem as the rocket. If the gas is only pushing towards the opening there is literally no way for it to move towards the opening.

Nope.
Pathetic dismissal, with no justification at all, does not help your case.

It's not magic it's quite simply decompression of molecules that were forcibly squeezed into the container.
It is magic. Even with your crazy model of sponge gas, it is still magic.
You have your gas pushing outwards in all directions trying to get more room, but then a long way away a valve opens and the gas suddenly stops pushing outwards in all directions for no reason at all and instead just pushes towards the opening, which it has no way of knowing exists.

That is magic.

However. Once you open that valve, the molecules at the very opening will expand out of the opening followed by a chain reaction of expansion of each and every other molecule expanding.
The pressure at the back is immediately released and the gauge can decompress which shows the pointer heading towards the zero.
The only way for that to happen is magic.
It requires the pressure to drop to 0 which makes no sense. That would also mean the gauge can drop to 0, instantly.
The pressure isn't released until all the gas is out.

Again, the only way for the gauge to continue reading a pressure rather than basically instantly dropping to 0, is if there is pressure pushing against it.

No, if the pressure at the back is immediately released the gauge would immediately jam to 0.
It isn't immediately released. It follows a chain reaction of gas expansion from the front to the back in ever changing expansion sizes. Largest at the very front (valve opening).

Quote from: Stash
If you closed the valve and the gauge had dropped from 100 psi to 50, where did the 50 all of a sudden come from when there was supposedly 0 when the valve was opened yet the gauge read a steady drop from 100 to 50.
Half of the 50 have already expanded out.
By closing the valve you stop the other 50 from leaving and you also stop the gauge from following that path because the pressure is now a set pressure that is resisting at the closed valve end, which means it cannot expand anymore.
This leaves a compression sort of equalisation.

Quote from: Stash
If the gauge reads anything above zero it has pressure on it.
Yep, as long as the gauge is under pressure by valve shut off or applied pressure from an external source.
Open the valve and the pressure on that gauge ceases. A continuous needle drop will confirm this.

Quote from: Stash
It's so blatantly fixed in reality that if a gauge is reading a pressure above zero there is a pressure above 0. How only you cannot grasp that is beyond me.
I can grasp it.
What you can't grasp is the expansion of it through an open valve/breach.

It matters a lot.
If it stays at 100 then it's a set positive pressure shown on and against a gauge. It's equalised.
If it starts increasing to 200 then it's an advancing positive  showing on a rising pointer on the gauge as pressure builds by compression on that gauge piston.

If it starts to drop to zero then it means the pressure is dropping and is now in a negative motion away from the gauge piston which naturally follows the expansion of the gas out of the container.
It does not have positive pressure against it.

To give you a simple analogy (and take it as that and do not use it as an argument) we'll imagine a bus that is sealed off and inside it are people all crammed in to such an extent they have to fight to stop themselves being crushed.
Imagine if they could survive being crushed smaller.
Ok so now you can imagine that...if the bus was sealed at each end, the crush would be even from back to front. Even pressure hitting both sealed off exits and also everyone squashed against the side walls and ceiling of that bus, plus floor.

Ok we both know this as being a sealed container of pressure, right, so let's see what happens.

Outside of that bus are a crowd of people who are body to body and slightly compressing into each other all around That bus and also stood on top of each other and also on top of the bus with people stood on top of them...and so on.
Under the bus there would be a few laid under it but not being squashed more than the rest because the bus wheels hold back the dense mass on it by using a solid ground.

Ok, so what we know is, the people inside the bus are itching to decompress. They're trying to break open the bus at its weakest point (assume windowless...let's not add in issues).
Suddenly the back door is breached and the compressed people in that bus start to decompress against the looser compression of the external crowd and manage to push some out of the way which compresses them into the people behind them.
However, inside the bus, the people behind the first out can also decompress as they push and are pushed into the first.
The one behind does the same.
By this time it will be noted that the bus is moving in the opposite direction and all the work done at the first decompression is filled by the falling people from above who fill the void that the first decompressed person created by compressing the crowd back...which as you know were less compressed at first.

Now this keeps happening because there's so many people crammed into the bus and it becomes each person expanding out and expanded into the back of.
As a little time goes on, the expansion inside the bus will become less and less as more people are pushed out.

Now here's the key.

The people at the other end of the bus have had to wait their turn to fully expand because all the way down that bus  became a slight expansion of each person from large (front) to extremely small (back).

Everybody expands at the front and is followed by those behind in a natural decompression.

By the time most are out, there's still some people still left inside the bus, all of who are simply equalised to the people outside of it.
There becomes no more movement. of the bus.


Read this carefully, seriously.
Absorb what's been said because you're getting closer to understanding, whether you end up agreeing or not.


I didnt notice this before.
The sponge people on a bus all want to get out.
The first half are plenty easy to get out because theyre super squished.
But once its comfortable, the other half dont care one way or another to get off.
The people constantly move about flipping chair spots, talking to each other.
The bus has a revolving door wih a doorman inside it.
As the door turns he reaches out and grabs the nearest person and pushes them out.
And blocks outside people from coming in.
This keeps happening.
Until theres one person left on the bus.
Hes got lots of space to roam around but eventually he wanders too close and the doorman manages to grab him and chuck him out.
Now there NO one on the bus.
Its empty.
Void of people.
The doorman stops the revolving door and seals it shuts the door.

What would we possibly call this action and state in "conventional" terms?

This is YOUR analogy.

Currently, mainstream science can easily explain how rockets work, including in a vacuum.
Clearly they can't.
No, clearly they can, as you have been completely unable to find a single problem with it.
All you have done is shown it doesn't agree with you.
But as they can clearly explain things without needing to appeal to magic or contradicting themselves, that means you are wrong.

It's so blatantly nondescript.
No, it is quite descriptive. You ignoring that doesn't magically mean it isn't.


The simple fact is the rocket stays put and the gas expands
Again, if that was the case you would have easily been able to answer my questions. You are yet to even try. Instead you just repeatedly avoid the issue, always giving non-answers.

Again, WHAT IS THE GAS PUSHING OFF?
If it isn't pushing off something it can't move.
Any answer provided to what it is pushing off also allows the rocket to move.

So again, you are reduced to 2 options, either both the gas and the rocket can move, or they both can't.

You have no explanation for why the gas should be allowed to move, but not the rocket.
Hence you are repeatedly contradicting yourself.

It matters a lot.
No, it doesn't.
100 is ALWAYS positive. It doesn't matter how it got there or where it is going. It is positive.

So by your own words you have admitted that if the gauge is reading above 0, then there is pressure acting on it.
That means that even while the gas is being released, pressure is acting on the gauge.

If it starts to drop to zero then it means the pressure is dropping
Yes, DROPPING!
Not magically negative, not magically not pushing.
The pressure is still there and it is still pushing against the gauge, it is just lowering as some of the gas is leaving.

And I notice that yet again you ignore very simple questions which show your model and claims to be pure garbage.
Why do you need to repeatedly ignore these?
Why not be honest for once and admit you have absolutely no answer and that your model is nothing more than wild speculation full of contradiction with no chance of explaining reality?

It isn't immediately released.
And there you go contradicting yourself again.
That means it is still acting on the gauge.
If it wasn't still acting on the gauge then it would have been released and the gauge would read 0.

By closing the valve you stop the other 50 from leaving
I.e. not need for your expansion nonsense at all.
The tank still had 50 psi in it, which was still acting in all directions. Then the valve was closed, preventing the pressure from dropping any more.


Open the valve and the pressure on that gauge ceases. A continuous needle drop will confirm this.
No, it doesn't.
The needing remaining above 0 confirms that it doesn't. It confirms that there is still pressure acting on the gauge.
Again, if there was no pressure, the gauge would read 0.

What you can't grasp is the expansion of it through an open valve/breach.
No, that would still be you. We understand how it works quite well and don't need to resort to pure magic and numerous contradictions.
But that is likely because we don't have a deep seeded need to deny the reality of rockets working in a vacuum.

Read back, it's all been explained.
Read back, I explained what was wrong with it, and like normal, you ignored it, because it showed you were wrong and you had no response that could get you out of it.

It all comes back to 2 simple questions (and either one works to completely destroy your claims):
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?

And the obvious next one, if the gas is only pushing towards the opening, then there is no way for it to move towards the opening, instead it can only move away from it.

As you like analogies, here is one for you:
You are in a swimming pool, near the wall (so it is within reach), and you want to get away from the wall.
Do you A - Push away from the wall, i.e. stretching your arms/feet out away from the wall and applying a force in the direction away from the wall, or
B - Push towards the wall, i.e. stretching your arms/feet out towards the wall, possibly even pushing into the wall.

I don't know about you and your magic, but I push towards the wall, such that the reactionary force pushes me away from the wall.
This can even be shown in the video of the guy on a skateboard. He pushes the ball to the left and ends up going right.

This means that if the gas is trying to get out, it pushes against objects away from the opening such that they in turn push the gas towards the opening.

But of course, you wont be able to admit that as that would mean accepting that rockets do work in a vacuum as the gas pushes against the rocket to push the rocket away from the gas, meaning rockets work in a vacuum.

That's not how mine works. This is why you're getting yourself mixed up.

I'll put your analogy right from my side.


You are in a swimming pool and you are squashed against the wall of the swimming pool by a big line of people that stretch from one end to the other.
Let's imagine that your back is pushing against a button that keeps a light on.
At the front of the line the person is also squashed against the wall and every person along that line is equally squashed into each other.

At the front a massive hole opens up and out goes the first person who simply decompresses because that wall is not there anymore to keep the person compressed.
The person directly behind the first simply decompresses and follows and so on and so on in a chain reaction all the way to the back.
Every person starts to decompress in order, including you at the back because the persons in front of you have already started decompressing away from each other and the person before you followed that suit and naturally you did, meaning the light gets switched off because you have nothing to hold that button.

The button simply follows you, so you are applying no positive pressure to that button.

Just transfer this to the tank and gauge and there you have it.

It's expanding against a weaker compressive force in the opposite direction (atmosphere).

If it isn't immediately released it is still applying pressure.

Answer the two questions:

If am travelling forward at 50mph and decelerate to 40mph, during that deceleration, I'm still moving forward.  Y/N?
Yes.

Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

I have a pressurized tire that is leaking air (decompressing).  It is at 32PSI and is leaking at a 1 PSI every 2 hours.  Does the tire still have pressure?  Y/N?
Yes.

How can the tire have pressure if it's all heading toward the opening.
Externally.

Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

  How is it maintaining it's rigidity and not going flat as a result of the air all heading toward the opening to decompress.
It's not.


Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

  To hold rigidity, the pressure must be pushing equally in all directions.
Exactly.

1) How does the 32PSI tire leaking at a 1 PSI every 2 hours still have pressure (You answered Yes it does) yet...
2) It's not maintaining its rigidity (You said it does not maintain its rigidity) yet...
3) It actually is maintaining rigidity because it won't be flat for about 64 hours (See your answer to #1) yet...
4) To hold rigidity, the pressure must be pushing equally in all directions (You answered Yes)

So you said that Yes, the tire does have pressure as its leaking and that pressure is pressing on all sides yet it is not maintaining rigidity.

If that were true, the tire would lose its rigidity immediately, immediately go flat, not take 64 hours to completely lose its rigidity and go flat.

You don't see that as a contradiction?

Why isn't it.  When I blow up a balloon, I'm pretty sure it expands in all directions.
The balloon skin does, yes.
We aren't dealing with the skin, we're dealing with the gas inside of it, but more im portantly we are delaing with a solid container at this moment.

Too many people are changing the set up from a balloon to a tyre and what not.
That's fine if you want to but add in a gauge because this is also what we're arguing at this point.

Now this is where you'll sit back and scratch your head and likely come back with " scepti you're contradicting yourself...can't you see."

Or something like that.


The container has pressure because it still has a gas fight on.
The container itself has its pressure releasing when the valve is open.

The gas is not directly pushing against the container with positive force. It's simply decompressing away from the container walls, even though the outer molecules are still touching.
And this is the key.

You are trying to hide the fact that the expansion continues in all direction all the time.
Do you actually know what you're saying?

Hide it as in how?

As in trying to dismiss the fact that the "head of your sretching man" will keep pressing the sealed end of the container and pushing it away from the center of the total mass of the system.

Out of the container there is no pressure.
Inside there is.
Gas simply gets squeezed from the pressurised area into the non-pressurized.
It's already squeezed by being pressurised. All it can do not is decompress to do work. It doesn't just squeeze again into a non- pressurised area, it expands into it until it fills that area and only then does it create a compressive reaction to its expansion of which the rocket sits atop of.
Exactly. By expanding it pushes itself not only towards the opening but in all directions. The other side carries the rocket with it.
Quote from: Macarios
Force pushing the exiting mass of the gas is action.
What force is pushing the exiting mass?
Explain what's happening.
The force of the expansion of the all gas. One side pushes the outer layers in one direction, the other side pushes the rocket in the other direction.
Quote from: Macarios
The exiting mass pressing back is reaction.
Explain what's happening.
Just did in the previous red sentence.
Quote from: Macarios
Reaction pushes the rocket in opposite direction.
As simpe as that.
Explain what's happening.
All gas in the container expands in all directions, and the pressure pushes the rocket.
Quote from: Macarios
Where do you need "resistance"?
Life doesn't work without it in any way shape or form.
You're duped into thinking we don;t need it because you accept space rockets.
Wrong. It is the other way around.I accept space rockets because I understand how they work, whether I want it or not. The acceptance came AFTER the understanding.
Quote from: Macarios
The only role that the missing resistance could have there is to prevent the rocket from bouncing off the mass of the exhaust.
Tell me about this bouncing off the mass of the exhaust.
Whenever you in any way push any mass, the reaction force pushes you off that mass.
And yes, the exhaust gas do have mass.

Quote from: Macarios
Car pushes itself off the road.
Not without fuel and air.
Air is there just to burn the fuel, not to push the car. You can pedal it without fuel.
(Rocket carries own oxidizer and doesn't need air.)
The only thing that pushes the car is the reaction from pushing the road back by the tires.
It is enough to push the road backwards.
Quote from: Macarios
Ship pushes itself off the water.
Not without fuel and air.
Scuba diver doesn't need either and he still moves.
It is enough to push the water backwards.


Quote from: Macarios
Rocket pushes itself off the exhaust gasses.
Explain how it does this.
Don't just say it just does. Explain what's happening inside the rocket, because outside apparently doesn't exist to a moving rocket, except to expel supposed waste.
So tell me what exactly is happening inside.
Explain it fully so I'm under no illusions.
Gas expands in all direction. In one direction is the appreture and it goes out. In the other direction is closed end and the gas pushes the rocket.

So its either sponges that dont move
Or its people that move.
Or its both?
Whicj is it?
Read back, it's all been explained.

I did
You said sponge people are moving off a bus.
No I didn't.
Go and read and absorb what I did say.

i like how you deleted what you said from my reply...
are you trump?
you realize this is all text that can be easily verified?
i've not changed a single word - just added some bolding.







To give you a simple analogy (and take it as that and do not use it as an argument) we'll imagine a bus that is sealed off and inside it are people all crammed in to such an extent they have to fight to stop themselves being crushed.
Imagine if they could survive being crushed smaller.
Ok so now you can imagine that...if the bus was sealed at each end, the crush would be even from back to front. Even pressure hitting both sealed off exits and also everyone squashed against the side walls and ceiling of that bus, plus floor.

Ok we both know this as being a sealed container of pressure, right, so let's see what happens.

Outside of that bus are a crowd of people who are body to body and slightly compressing into each other all around That bus and also stood on top of each other and also on top of the bus with people stood on top of them...and so on.
Under the bus there would be a few laid under it but not being squashed more than the rest because the bus wheels hold back the dense mass on it by using a solid ground.

Ok, so what we know is, the people inside the bus are itching to decompress. They're trying to break open the bus at its weakest point (assume windowless...let's not add in issues).
Suddenly the back door is breached and the compressed people in that bus start to decompress against the looser compression of the external crowd and manage to push some out of the way which compresses them into the people behind them.
However, inside the bus, the people behind the first out can also decompress as they push and are pushed into the first.
The one behind does the same.
By this time it will be noted that the bus is moving in the opposite direction and all the work done at the first decompression is filled by the falling people from above who fill the void that the first decompressed person created by compressing the crowd back...which as you know were less compressed at first.

Now this keeps happening because there's so many people crammed into the bus and it becomes each person expanding out and expanded into the back of.
As a little time goes on, the expansion inside the bus will become less and less as more people are pushed out.

Now here's the key.

The people at the other end of the bus have had to wait their turn to fully expand because all the way down that bus  became a slight expansion of each person from large (front) to extremely small (back).

Everybody expands at the front and is followed by those behind in a natural decompression.

By the time most are out, there's still some people still left inside the bus, all of who are simply equalised to the people outside of it.
There becomes no more movement. of the bus.


Read this carefully, seriously.
Absorb what's been said because you're getting closer to understanding, whether you end up agreeing or not.

completely bonkers.
The gas doesn't have to know what it's in.
The actual containers and external atmospheric pressure are the deciding factors.

Both different set ups and both have to be dealt with in exactly that way.

Rigid container holds compressed air and is stopped from expanding by that rigidity.

A balloon holds compressed air but it expands the skin against the external atmospheric pressure and compresses that by what's inside the balloon.

correct
in conventional physics
the net positive force (FORCE = PRESSURE/ AREA) is acting in the direction of the opening.
the general pressure (PRESSURE = FORCE x AREA) inside the container is the amount of force the container requires to keep all that gas from breaching any one part of its skin.

and any number of value greater than zero, is a POSTIVE.
the DIRECTION of RATE of DECREASE may be dropping (calculus), but it is still a POSTIVE value.

As you like analogies, here is one for you:
You are in a swimming pool, near the wall (so it is within reach), and you want to get away from the wall.
Do you A - Push away from the wall, i.e. stretching your arms/feet out away from the wall and applying a force in the direction away from the wall, or
B - Push towards the wall, i.e. stretching your arms/feet out towards the wall, possibly even pushing into the wall.
That's not how mine works. This is why you're getting yourself mixed up.
Really?
So when you are in a swimming pool, if you push your arms forwards, you push forwards?

I'll put your analogy right from my side.
You mean you will avoid yet another very simple question which shows your model to be a pile of nonsense.

How about you stop with all the nonsense and try to answer these very simple questions.
Push against the wall to move away from it, or do you push in the opposite direction?

At the front a massive hole opens up and out goes the first person who simply decompresses because that wall is not there anymore to keep the person compressed.
Nope. You can't just simply move like that.
You need something to make you move. So what does?
What force is there to make the person move?

I'm showing that rockets do not work as we are told and certainly do not work in a so called space vacuum.
You are only showing your complete inability to very simple questions which show you are completely wrong.
You have been completely unable to show a single problem with the currently accepted model.
All you have provided to try to show that rockets can't work in space is your delusional model built upon wild speculation with absolutely no supporting evidence and mountains of contradictions in the model.

So no, you are not showing the rockets don't work in a vacuum.
You aren't even coming close.

If you want to have any chance of doing so, you need to be able to answer these very simple questions:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

Until you answer them, you have nothing and have no chance at all of refuting the reality of rockets working in a vacuum.

What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move?
Gas.
Again, that means the gas is capable of providing resistance to motion and thus the rocket can push off it as well.
That means rockets work in space.

Quote from: JackBlack
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
Decompression.
That is a useless word, not an answer.
How does it know to only push towards the front. What mechanism is there?
The only sane thing to happen is for the gas to continue to push outwards in ALL directions.
You need to provide a justification for why it only pushes in one direction.

Quote from: JackBlack
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?
It's expanding against a weaker compressive force in the opposite direction (atmosphere).
If it was just expanding, it would expand outwards in all directions, not magically move in one direction. So again, you have no answer.
This also completely ignores the actual issue, how does it actually move forwards if it is pushing forwards.

The only way for it to move forwards is for it to push backwards so a reactionary force pushes it forwards.

What I do see is a failure of you and others to understand what I put forward.
Stop with the insults.
We understand quite well.
We just realise that it is pure nonsense.
Realising your nonsense is nonsense doesn't mean we don't understand.
Pointing out your contradictions doesn't mean we don't understand.
You repeatedly telling us we don't understand rather than actually addressing the issues is far indicative of you not being able to defend your model at all, and us almost certainly being correct that your model is a pile of self-contradictory garbage.

The positive force is now expanding out into the opening and releasing the push against the walls, negatively.
i.e. it is still applying a pressure, it is just less than before.

You seem to be using a completely different meaning of the word.

How about this analogy:
Someone is pushing you against a wall, applying a significant force.
Then they slowly ease up on the force, gradually reducing the force they are applying to you.
Are they still pushing you?
The actual containers and external atmospheric pressure are the deciding factors.
Only if there are interactions between the container and the air due to them pushing against each other.

and every day you took out 10$.
you are not BROKE until the 10th day (9th if you want to play games).
No you're not but you are negatively draining your bank account, not positively adding to it or even holding a set $100.

After 32 hours the gauge reads 16 PSI, I close the valve. The gauge reads 16 PSI. Is the gas now pushing against the walls with a positive force?
 A positive force of 16 PSI? Y/N
Yes.

When I reopen the valve, the gauge still reads 16 PSI, is the gas still pushing against the walls with a positive force? A positive force of 16 PSI? Y/N
No.
The positive force is now expanding out into the opening and releasing the push against the walls, negatively.
Also the psi is no longer 16psi. It would be a continuous drop because it is not positively pushing against the gauge piston.

So the 15.999 PSI, or whatever, right after I open the valve, is no longer pressing on the gauge, yet the gauge is reading 15.999 PSI? Y/N
The gauge isn't reading 15,999 psi, it's reading nothing definitively set whilst the valve is open.

How about this analogy:
Someone is pushing you against a wall, applying a significant force.
Then they slowly ease up on the force, gradually reducing the force they are applying to you.
Are they still pushing you?
Nope. They're resisting your expansion in to their back.

The gauge has been steadily and predictably going down 1 PSI every 2 hours from 32PSI when I opened the valve down to 16 when I closed it 32 hours later. You're saying that all during that 32 hours, the gauge was "reading nothing definitively" yet it was reading a 1 PSI drop every 2 hours? Y/N

To give you a simple analogy (and take it as that and do not use it as an argument) we'll imagine a bus that is sealed off and inside it are people all crammed in to such an extent they have to fight to stop themselves being crushed.
Imagine if they could survive being crushed smaller.
Ok so now you can imagine that...if the bus was sealed at each end, the crush would be even from back to front. Even pressure hitting both sealed off exits and also everyone squashed against the side walls and ceiling of that bus, plus floor.

Ok we both know this as being a sealed container of pressure, right, so let's see what happens.

Outside of that bus are a crowd of people who are body to body and slightly compressing into each other all around That bus and also stood on top of each other and also on top of the bus with people stood on top of them...and so on.
Under the bus there would be a few laid under it but not being squashed more than the rest because the bus wheels hold back the dense mass on it by using a solid ground.

Ok, so what we know is, the people inside the bus are itching to decompress. They're trying to break open the bus at its weakest point (assume windowless...let's not add in issues).
Suddenly the back door is breached and the compressed people in that bus start to decompress against the looser compression of the external crowd and manage to push some out of the way which compresses them into the people behind them.
However, inside the bus, the people behind the first out can also decompress as they push and are pushed into the first.
The one behind does the same.
By this time it will be noted that the bus is moving in the opposite direction and all the work done at the first decompression is filled by the falling people from above who fill the void that the first decompressed person created by compressing the crowd back...which as you know were less compressed at first.

Now this keeps happening because there's so many people crammed into the bus and it becomes each person expanding out and expanded into the back of.
As a little time goes on, the expansion inside the bus will become less and less as more people are pushed out.

Now here's the key.

The people at the other end of the bus have had to wait their turn to fully expand because all the way down that bus  became a slight expansion of each person from large (front) to extremely small (back).

Everybody expands at the front and is followed by those behind in a natural decompression.

By the time most are out, there's still some people still left inside the bus, all of who are simply equalised to the people outside of it.
There becomes no more movement. of the bus.


Read this carefully, seriously.
Absorb what's been said because you're getting closer to understanding, whether you end up agreeing or not.

i can requote it.
for alllll to see.
you clearly deleted it.
sponge people expand but also leave the bus.

scepti is clearly using definitions that differ from "conventional" and have yet to be determined.

because - HOW WOULD THE GAS KNOW IT"S IN A FLEXIBLE BALLOON VS A RIGID IMPERMEABLE CONTAINER?!

completely bonkers.
The gas doesn't have to know what it's in.
The actual containers and external atmospheric pressure are the deciding factors.

Both different set ups and both have to be dealt with in exactly that way.

Rigid container holds compressed air and is stopped from expanding by that rigidity.

A balloon holds compressed air but it expands the skin against the external atmospheric pressure and compresses that by what's inside the balloon.

Right
The container skin properties decide how the container will form and behave.
The air just wants to go out in all (in all) directions
Even if there is a breach, the air is still trying to go in all directions, its just those near the exit find it easy, and leave.
So it is NOT a different set up, as far as the air is concerned.

If it isn't immediately released it is still applying pressure.

Answer the two questions:

If am travelling forward at 50mph and decelerate to 40mph, during that deceleration, I'm still moving forward.  Y/N?
Yes.

Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

I have a pressurized tire that is leaking air (decompressing).  It is at 32PSI and is leaking at a 1 PSI every 2 hours.  Does the tire still have pressure?  Y/N?
Yes.

How can the tire have pressure if it's all heading toward the opening.
Externally.

Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

  How is it maintaining it's rigidity and not going flat as a result of the air all heading toward the opening to decompress.
It's not.


Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

  To hold rigidity, the pressure must be pushing equally in all directions.
Exactly.

1) How does the 32PSI tire leaking at a 1 PSI every 2 hours still have pressure (You answered Yes it does) yet...
2) It's not maintaining its rigidity (You said it does not maintain its rigidity) yet...
3) It actually is maintaining rigidity because it won't be flat for about 64 hours (See your answer to #1) yet...
4) To hold rigidity, the pressure must be pushing equally in all directions (You answered Yes)

So you said that Yes, the tire does have pressure as its leaking and that pressure is pressing on all sides yet it is not maintaining rigidity.

If that were true, the tire would lose its rigidity immediately, immediately go flat, not take 64 hours to completely lose its rigidity and go flat.

You don't see that as a contradiction?
No contradictions whatsoever.
What I do see is a failure of you and others to understand what I put forward.
You change from a container to a tyre and believe it's the same scenario but it's not. There is a difference and it should be obvious.
This is why you're getting what you think are contradictions.

You have the same mental difficiency by thinking a traveling car horizontally vs vertical matters much when considering linear motion.
Or that thinking air in a balloon vs a pop can when considering air pressure.

Why isn't it.  When I blow up a balloon, I'm pretty sure it expands in all directions.
The balloon skin does, yes.
We aren't dealing with the skin, we're dealing with the gas inside of it, but more im portantly we are delaing with a solid container at this moment.

Too many people are changing the set up from a balloon to a tyre and what not.
That's fine if you want to but add in a gauge because this is also what we're arguing at this point.

I'm sure you can see how it's going to get confusing for you all.
I have no issues in answering any but you'll definitely get mixed up.

Lets try this.

The ballloon is inside a popcan that is full sealed.
Blow up the balloon.
It fills to the size of the popcan.
Now what does the air think?
Its inside a balloon or its inside a popcan?
Oh dear... what to do.

Ok:

I have a pressurized container with a gauge on one end and a valve on the other that is opened  (decompressing).
Correct.

Quote from: Stash
The container is at 32PSI and is ejecting through the valve at 1 PSI every 2 hours.  Does the container still have pressure?  Y/N?
Yes.


Quote from: Stash
After 32 hours, the gauge reads 16 PSI, does the container still have pressure?  Y/N?
Yes.


Now this is where you'll sit back and scratch your head and likely come back with " scepti you're contradicting yourself...can't you see."

Or something like that.


The container has pressure because it still has a gas fight on.
The container itself has its pressure releasing when the valve is open.

The gas is not directly pushing against the container with positive force. It's simply decompressing away from the container walls, even though the outer molecules are still touching.
And this is the key.

This is what you need to get around and understand why I explain what I explain.

I like how you deleted and completely ignored this part of a previous response
But i can repost for AAAAALLL to see what a dodger your are:


in conventional physics
the net positive force (FORCE = PRESSURE/ AREA) is acting in the direction of the opening.
the general pressure (PRESSURE = FORCE x AREA) inside the container is the amount of force the container requires to keep all that gas from breaching any one part of its skin.

and any number of value greater than zero, is a POSTIVE.
the DIRECTION of RATE of DECREASE may be dropping (calculus), but it is still a POSTIVE value.

the DIRECTION of RATE of DECREASE may be dropping (calculus), but it is still a POSTIVE value.

It may be a positive value with gas on gas expansion but it has zero positive value against a gauge if the opposite end is open.

This time sponge people can exit off a bus which in theory means that vaccuums exist.

No you're not but you are negatively draining your bank account, not positively adding to it or even holding a set $100.
But you still have money it in.
If we accept your nonsense, then there is no money it it, it is just expanded outwards towards the opening.

Do you realise just how foolish that kind of claim would be?
The money is still in the account, just like the pressure (which is acting outwards in all directions) is still in the container.
A decreasing number which is greater than 0, is still a positive number.

How about this analogy:
Someone is pushing you against a wall, applying a significant force.
Then they slowly ease up on the force, gradually reducing the force they are applying to you.
Are they still pushing you?
Nope. They're resisting your expansion in to their back.

If that was the case, you would be free to move.
Instead you are still held back against the wall.
That means they are pushing you against the wall.
Again, you seem to just want to use different words.

In which case the same nonsense words can be used in the case of the rocket and so on.

It is a different set up.
While there are differences, it is the same principle, and the setup is not really any more different than any other container.
The gas continue to exert a force outwards in all directions.
This is what moves the rocket, keeps the pressure gauge reading a value, keeps the balloon inflated and so on.

Not against a gauge it's not.
A gauge is irrelevant.
A positive value is a positive value.
It doesn't matter how it got there.


And of course, after your non-answers are shown to be non-answers, you avoid the very simple questions yet again.
So here they are again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

Remember, until you can provide simple consistent answers which are actually answers, YOU HAVE NOTHING!

That analogy does not cover what I'm saying.
No, it still does.
You want to pretend that just because a value is dropping that it is magically not positive.
That is not how anything works.

This is why you lot are struggling to understand.
We are not struggling to understand.
The way you repeatedly need to avoid very simple issues shows that we are not the ones who lack understanding and instead your model is fundamentally flawed.
Again, realising you are wrong is not the same as not understanding.

Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And 10pg later.
You still havent answer what the relevance of water in a water rocket does.
You think you answered it.
But a "dissipative resistance to stack" is nonsensical.
We even went through a denP-definition exercise which you quickly abandoned when you realized what contradictions it was exposing.
I'm abandoning nothing.
Your failure to understand is your issue and creates your own confusion.

You make out I said dissipative resistance to a stack. Where did I say that?
Try and understand and absorb what I do say and it'll make things a bit more clear to you.
Keep putting your shield up and you'll naturally miss out on a lot.

A decreasing number which is greater than 0, is still a positive number.
There is no definitive number on something decreasing, until it stops decreasing.



Quote from: JackBlack

Not against a gauge it's not.
A gauge is irrelevant.
A positive value is a positive value.
It doesn't matter how it got there.

How do you know a positive value if there are no means to measure it?


Quote from: JackBlack

What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move?
Itself.


Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?

It follows a funnel like exit against lower pressure.

Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

It expands to wards the opening because the resistance of gas external to it is much lower or more expanded than the expanded gas coming out of the valve, which is then compressed to that in resistance by the stack of atmosphere directly below.

The positive pressure is still there but it's happening at the opposite end against resistant atmosphere.

There is no definitive number on something decreasing, until it stops decreasing.

Whoa, what? What in the world does that mean in your world? A gauge measures a reading whether it's going up or going down. And your explanation is that there is no definitive number on something decreasing, until it stops decreasing? And yes, that's like saying something I just made up, there is no increasing as the increases occur increasingly. You have got to be kidding me that is your gobblegook explanation for anything.

There's a gauge. The gauge reads pressure. Whether that pressure is going up, or going down, it reads pressure. That's the sole purpose of the life of a pressure gauge. This "no definitive number" thing completely blows up your theory as it is asinine at best.

I think the issue is that you got into a bind regarding pressurized containers vexed by a Newtonian 3rd law and can't really find your way out unless you make up new things. New things that contradict old things, but attempt to get you out of the current jam you're in. Hence things like, "no definitive number on something decreasing", sponges, buses and expansion.

You can't get past the gauge argument without making up entirely new contradictory stuff. So I think it's kinda done.

A decreasing number which is greater than 0, is still a positive number.
There is no definitive number on something decreasing, until it stops decreasing.
And that is just more attempts at weaseling.
There is still a definitive number at any point in time. The fact that it changes over time does not change that.
It is still a positive number.
All the systems still have pressure being applied.
You just seem to want to pretend that while this pressure which is continuing to be applied is decreasing it is just expansion.

How do you know a positive value if there are no means to measure it?
There are many ways, as already explained.
The simplest is the gauge measuring it, or the container not collapsing.
We know what a balloon looks like when there is no pressure inside it. We know just how quickly it will return to its "default" size if there is no pressure to hold it open. This makes it quite apparent that there is still pressure.

Quote from: JackBlack

What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move?
Itself.
Again, if you want to go down that route, that means the rocket can push against itself and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
One of your arguments against a rocket is that things can't push against themselves to move.
So there you go contradicting yourself yet again.

In order for what you say here to count as an answer you either need to admit that rockets work in a vacuum or you need to provide something which wont work equally well for the rocket or have something equivalent that will.

Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?

How?
As you said, it is trying to expand. Why would it suddenly stop trying to do so in all bar one direction?

Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?
It expands to wards the opening because the resistance of gas external to it is much lower or more expanded than the expanded gas coming out of the valve, which is then compressed to that in resistance by the stack of atmosphere directly below.
And again you avoid the actual problem this question raises.
Even you admit motion is caused by push on push.
That means if the gas is pushing forwards, it moves backwards by the reactionary force pushing on it.

But with what you said, why should the resistance in any direction matter?
If it expands outwards it should be doing so in all directions.
The only way for that nonsense to make sense is if what you are saying really means that the gas is trying to expand outwards in all directions, and is pushing outwards in all directions, but the gas away from the opening is at a higher pressure and is pushing more than the gas towards the opening.

I'm not saying it's not positive. I'm saying there's no positive pressure against the gauge.
So you are contradicting yourself again, because before you said if it was positive there is pressure against the gauge.

The positive pressure is still there
Which means it will still be pushing against the gauge as there is literally no reason for it to not do so and all the evidence shows it is.

Deal with one thing at a time and you won't get sidetracked by adding in stuff you clearly don't  fully understand about my theory.
I have made it quite clear that I do understand.
Stop insulting to try and avoid the problems with your model.

Once the valve is opened the gauge ceases to have positive pressure applied to it. All the pressure is doing from that point is resisting the piston.
There is no positive push back which is why the reading on the gaue shows a consistent drop of the needle which in turn shows no definitive consistent positive pressure reading, only negative.

That's because it is just expanding, which is why the pressure inside the container shows a gauge decrease.
The pressure from this point on is only applied against a lesser pressure resistance to recreate a reactionary compression, externally.

My theory is consistent. There's no holes.
If it was consistent and without holes you wouldn't be repeatedly contradicting yourself and avoiding very simple questions.
You wouldn't need to repeatedly insult people and say they don't understand or are putting up barriers.
Instead you would easily be able to answer the questions and explain these simple problems.

Once the valve is opened the gauge ceases to have positive pressure applied to it. All the pressure is doing from that point is resisting the piston.
i.e. it is applying a force to it (as if it wasn't it would offer no resistance and simply move out of the way).
This means it is applying a pressure to it.

Again, you have 2 very simple options.
One is to accept reality and accept that the gas is still applying a force/pressure to the gauge.
The other is to reject reality and say that no force is being applied and thus the gauge will almost instantly jump to 0.

That's because it is just expanding
If it was just expanding then the gauge would very rapidly go to 0 and the balloon would very rapidly return to its normal size.
THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN!
That means it isn't simply expansion.
That means the gas is still applying a force.
That is why the gauge still shows a positive reading rather than dropping to 0, because the gas is still applying pressure.

The pressure from this point on is only applied against a lesser pressure resistance to recreate a reactionary compression, externally.
i.e. a bunch of word salad to say the gas is still applying a pressure to the gauge?

And again, you avoid very simple questions almost as if you know that answering them shows you are wrong.

So far you are switching back and forth between giving the same non-answers or ignoring them entirely, including what has been pointed out as a massive problem with your non-answers.

Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

Until you have a rational, consistent answer to these problems which does not require the rejection of reality, YOU HAVE NOTHING!

Don't worry, I know you don't have an answer, as your model cannot explain reality and relies upon numerous contradictions to pretend to. But while you keep promoting your model and attacking reality I will keep on bringing up problems with it.

For the first question, "itself" is not an answer, as you say that objects can't push against themselves to move, and if the gas can, then so can the rocket.
It can't be the rocket, as that means the gas is pushing the rocket.
It can't be the gas in between, as that means that the rocket can push off it as well.

For the second and third, expansion is not an answer.
Expansion is in all directions.

For the third, you also need to address the fact that motion is the result of an interaction between 2 objects, where an object pushes in one direction and moves the other.

This means it is applying a pressure to it.
It can't move out of the way. It's behind all the other gas molecules and the gauge piston is now applying the dense mass to that already expanding towards the front, molecules, which were at one time pushing that piston back or stopping it from  pushing forward.

Quote from: JackBlack

All objects can push against themselves to move as long as there's a pressure applied to those objects.
You need to get on even ground here because you're skewing anything you try to get a grip of by changing the scenario.
We're talking about gas molecules because this is the crux of the matter with all things.

scepti is clearly using definitions that differ from "conventional" and have yet to be determined.

because - HOW WOULD THE GAS KNOW IT"S IN A FLEXIBLE BALLOON VS A RIGID IMPERMEABLE CONTAINER?!

completely bonkers.
The gas doesn't have to know what it's in.
The actual containers and external atmospheric pressure are the deciding factors.

Both different set ups and both have to be dealt with in exactly that way.

Rigid container holds compressed air and is stopped from expanding by that rigidity.

A balloon holds compressed air but it expands the skin against the external atmospheric pressure and compresses that by what's inside the balloon.

Right
The container skin properties decide how the container will form and behave.
The air just wants to go out in all (in all) directions
Even if there is a breach, the air is still trying to go in all directions, its just those near the exit find it easy, and leave.
So it is NOT a different set up, as far as the air is concerned.
It is a different set up.

And if that gauge was ripped out.
Would the air magically still qant to push out the original opening?
Would any air want to leak out the hole where the gauge used to be?

any number of value greater than zero, is a POSTIVE.
the DIRECTION of RATE of DECREASE may be dropping (calculus), but it is still a POSTIVE value.
Not against a gauge it's not.
It may be a positive value with gas on gas expansion but it has zero positive value against a gauge if the opposite end is open.

So using your logic, if I'm driving at 50mph and decelerate to any speed greater than 0, I'm no longer moving forward.
That analogy does not cover what I'm saying.
This is why you lot are struggling to understand.

It does
The speedometer shows a postive value (greater than zero).
The pressure gauge sjows a psotive value (grwater than zero).
Both a decreasing at a rate.

Pumps did exist. Not sure what you're getting at with this.

As for sponges, they are a basic analogy for clarity which you and others struggle with.
Gobstoppers are for molecular density to show layers but that goes way above your head when you struggle to deal with a sponge analogy.

No, it still does.
You want to pretend that just because a value is dropping that it is magically not positive.
That is not how anything works.


I'm not saying it's not positive. I'm saying there's no positive pressure against the gauge.
The positive pressure is still there but it's happening at the opposite end against resistant atmosphere.

Deal with one thing at a time and you won't get sidetracked by adding in stuff you clearly don't  fully understand about my theory.

"Its not not posivite" (= positive).
Immediately follwed by "is not possitive".
No
There absolutely noooooo contradiction here.
Keep failing.

Heres another fluid-pressure example.

Water is a fluid.
Water inside a giant football jug with a spout pouring into a cup.
Are you saying because the spout is open, water is flow, that there would be no pressure on the bottom of the jug?
Remeber us duped people believe weight = pressure over an area.
Youre saying that magically there isbzero pressure resultong in zero weight of the jug?
You'll need to be clearer on what you're saying here. A football jug? A spout pouring into cup? Spout is open? Water is flow? No pressure at bottom of jug?

Can you actually put a proper scenario to me because I can't make head nor tail of what you're saying here.

Thats exaclty what the scenario is.
You described it and repeated it back meaning you understand it.
You are just rwfusing to acknowledfr and play dumb.
But thats ok.



Small corrdction.
I should jave said force, not weight.

The only question I avoid or delete from your quotes are those that you repeatedly ask after being given an answer to, time and time again.
No, they are the questions that you have repeatedly avoided time and time again.
You are yet to provide an actual answer.
You either ignore it entirely or provide a non-answer which doesn't address the issue.

All it does it wastes your time and my time in order for me to delete the bits that I feel are worthless.
Perhaps you should stop considering things which show you to be wrong as worthless and instead try and respond to them?

It can't move out of the way. It's behind all the other gas molecules
The only way for those gas molecules to stop it is to provide a force back to it.

All objects can push against themselves to move
So rockets can push against themselves and thus rockets work in a vacuum. End of thread.

Before you complain about pressure, the gas is in the same condition. Either there is pressure and thus both can move or there is not and neither can move.

So like I said, you need to either accept that rockets do work in a vacuum, or provide a reason for why the gas can move but not the rocket.

You need to get on even ground here
No, I don't.
You are the one who is repeatedly contradicting yourself and trying to skew what you say and reality to try and prop up your fantasy.
I am pointing out what is wrong with it by using your own arguments against you.
That is not skewing anything.
I'm not changing the scenario either.
I am dealing with the same issue, the fact that gas exerts pressure in all directions.

I have no problem with an object pushing in one direction to move another. It's how and why it works which is the key.
But that isn't what was asked of you.
It was the object itself pushing in one direction and moving in one direction.
Or are you going to claim forces can magically arise from nothing and not have a reactionary force?

And if you really did accept that, you would rockets working in a vacuum.
The gas inside the rocket pushes it in one direction to move the rocket.

Or if you like, the rocket is just expanding and decompressing, moving it forwards.

Yep, as long as they hit a resistance, which your so called space vacuum does not provide
So you are back to the same problem.
What is your gas using as resistance?

Again, the gas and the rocket are in the same boat. Either both can move or neither can.
Any excuse you make for the gas to be able to move will work equally well for the rocket (or has an equivalent which does).
Any objection you raise for the rocket works equally well for the gas (or has an equivalent which does).

Either both can move and thus rockets work in a vacuum or neither can move and thus gas can remain trapped in an open container exposed to the vacuum of space.

If the gauge was ripped out to leave an opening and let's assume the opening was equal to the opposite end valve opening then you have an expansion out of both ends, all the way back to the middle.
Why?
The gas in your fantasy is already moving towards one end, just "expanding" towards it, with no desire to go in any other direction. Why would it then magically turn around?

Again, this only makes sense if you accept that the gas is pushing outwards in all directions.

If we deal with one thing, do not attempt to marry it up with another because all you do is skew the entire explanation them whine on that I delete it or bypass it.
No, we expose the contradictions.
If you need a different explanation for each scenario your model is garbage.
A single explanation should be capable of dealing with a rocket in a vacuum, the gauge on the tank, a balloon, a water rocket and so on.
They are based upon the same principles of how gas behaves.

So again, either answer the questions or admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

How would the air know that a new opening existed?
It doesn't. The air is compressed into the container. Forget about air knowing this and that.
It's compression of air to be more compressed than what it was before, or to be a bit simpler, normal atmospheric sea level pressure in this instance.
So now it gets compressed by applied energy into a container.
Because it's compressed more molecules can be added because they become smaller by compression into each other and stay like that if the container valve is shut.


Quote from: NotSoSkeptical
How would the air expand in a separate direction if it is only expanding and pushing in one direction?
Because a new opening exists which means the gas expands out of that new opening as the chain reaction now stems from each end and back to the centre.

Quote from: NotSoSkeptical
The only way I could see it is if the air was pushing against the gauge trying to expand. Then when the opening appeared, the air found no resistance and expanded in the direction of the new hole as well.  Like it should.
I understand what you're trying to say but it's not what happens by my theory.
You see it's only pushing against the gauge trying to expand when it's contained, meaning no openings, or when pressure is added.
When one end is opened up it's a case of, about turn and follow the leader out of the opening.
You have a complete line of expansion from the largest at the front opening to lesser and lesser expansion all the way to the back.
You know the expansion is flowing directly to the front and not to the back by the drop in the gauge needle.

If you smashed that gauge off and created an opening, you create an about turn once again, because you allow the lesser expanding molecules to immediately expand much more out of that opening.
This causes both expansions to end at the middle instead of one opening, because there are now two opposite openings.

There's nothing sentient about it, but maybe this is your and others ways of playing the wind up game. If so then fair enough.
The only sentient thing about how the gas is compressed into the container is the person doing it. The gas molecules naturally decompress when allowed to by applying less pressure to them or by opening a valve or a breach at any point in any container holding a pressure, etc.

If the gauge shows a continuous lowering of pressure it means it has negative pressure upon it and it simply follows the flow/decompression out towards the open valve until its piston is fully extended or the needle reads zero, unless the valve is closed at any point before the gauge has the opportunity to reach zero.

Their gauges aren't wrong. Their gauges show then exactly what they expect.
The only difference for them is in how it's happening by what they're told.
It does not change the way things work in reality, it just means the explanations for why it works are not wholly accurate.

You see, my theory still allows everything to work as they do. The only thing it kills off is stuff like rockets working in so called space vacuums or extreme low pressure environments.

The reason for that is obvious if you understand my theory.

it has a negative RATE, decreasing 1psi every 1min.

it finally shows zero.
at what point will the gauge show negative VALUE?

Ooo, ouch, slippery slope my friend. I would call it just pressure. But if you want to call it positive pressure that to me means any pressure on the gauge that is greater than 0. Negative pressure would be any pressure less than 0. Which is how positive and negative works.
When I'm driving a car at 50 mph and slow down to 35 mph, I'm not going negative 15 mph. I'm going 35 mph.

But, I'll play along. For this exercise, ok, let's call it positive pressure.

Now do you agree if a valve is opened the piston on that gauge will now follow behind the gas and the spring behind the piston will be pushing on that gas whilst the gas is resisting that push?

No. The gas pressure is pushing on all sides as pressure does, the very nature of pressure. And it is pushing against the piston and spring in the gauge and the resistance of the piston and spring against the pressure of the gas is what registers on the gauge dial. That's how a gauge is designed to work. If there is no pressure on the piston and spring the gauge will be 0. That's the fact.

So with an open valve, the pressure is being relieved from all sides/area of the container and the pressure on the resistance of the pin and spring of the gauge begins to lessen and so on until the pressure on the piston and spring is 0. Hence the reading of 0 when no pressure is applied.

at start, the pressure gauge shows a positive VALUE reading of 10psi.
it has a negative RATE, decreasing 1psi every 1min.
after 10min
it finally shows zero.
at what point will the gauge show negative VALUE?

according to you, as long as there's a leak, it's negative pressure.
At what point did I ever say the gauge did show a negative value?

Serioussly...
Ill copy paste it again






Sentient for sure.

Because you can't have a pressure gauge showing any sort of pressure above 0 unless there is pressure. So there must be some other magic going on.
You're another one who doesn't get it.
There's nothing sentient about it, but maybe this is your and others ways of playing the wind up game. If so then fair enough.
The only sentient thing about how the gas is compressed into the container is the person doing it. The gas molecules naturally decompress when allowed to by applying less pressure to them or by opening a valve or a breach at any point in any container holding a pressure, etc.

If the gauge shows a continuous lowering of pressure it means it has negative pressure upon it and it simply follows the flow/decompression out towards the open valve until its piston is fully extended or the needle reads zero, unless the valve is closed at any point before the gauge has the opportunity to reach zero.

incorrect
what part of this do you fail to understand?
A negative RATE is NOT the same as a negative VALUE
How about you explain where I've got this wrong instead of just saying it.

How would the air know that a new opening existed?
It doesn't. The air is compressed into the container. Forget about air knowing this and that.
It's compression of air to be more compressed than what it was before, or to be a bit simpler, normal atmospheric sea level pressure in this instance.
So now it gets compressed by applied energy into a container.
Because it's compressed more molecules can be added because they become smaller by compression into each other and stay like that if the container valve is shut.
Notice how you completely avoid the question yet again?
It is really a quite simple question.
But with your model, you can't answer it.

Lets consider this very simple problem from 2 models, yours and reality. First lets do yours:
You have your gas in your tank under pressure trying to push outwards in all directions to get more room.
Now an opening forms.
This now means your gas, instead of trying to move outwards in all directions just magically heads towards the opening, not caring about what is behind them.
Now a new opening forms behind the gas.
There is no way for that to get conveyed to the gas as they don't care what is behind them.
This means the gas should continue heading to the original opening and not care at all about the new opening.

Now reality:
The gas is trying to expand outwards in all directions but is kept trapped by the tank.
The gas remains in position due to the reactionary force from the tank pushing inwards against the gas.
Now an opening forms.
Now the force on the gas is unbalanced. The gas right near the opening is pushed out by the gas further in, with its own resistance to changing motion providing a reactionary force to stop all the gas instantly accelerating as one.
The gas further inside continues to push outwards in all directions, but due to the unbalanced forces it slowly migrates towards the opening.
But now a new opening forms.
The gas near it is still trying to push outwards in all directions, so the gas gets pushed outwards by that slightly further in.

No need for sentient gas.
No need for the gas to head off in one direction.
No need for the gas to magically know to turn around.

Because a new opening exists which means the gas expands out of that new opening
This only makes sense if the gas is trying to expand in all directions.

When one end is opened up it's a case of, about turn and follow the leader out of the opening.
Which, ignoring the fact that that makes no sense at all and is clearly refuted by reality, that means they should follow the leader. Why turn back?

And no, that does mean your gas is sentient.
That was shown by another question that you have repeatedly ignored.
How does your gas know to only move towards the opening rather than trying to push outwards in every direction.

Or you just don't get it, which is the reality I'm afraid.
No, the reality is that we get it quite well and just realise your model is pure nonsense.
The real question is if you understand that and are just trolling or if you actually believe your nonsense.

You see, my theory still allows everything to work as they do. The only thing it kills off is stuff like rockets working in so called space vacuums or extreme low pressure environments.

The reason for that is obvious if you understand my theory.
Yes, the reason is obvious.
You want to reject the reality of space as that goes against your fantasy. So you will pretend everything else works so you can pretend there is nothing wrong with your model.

But in reality, your model doesn't work.
It repeatedly contradicts itself and can't explain reality.

But you don't care.
You care more about rejecting the reality of rockets than having a working model.

the gas is now resisting the piston
i.e. it is exerting a force and pushing on the gauge. That is the only way to resist. Otherwise it has no effect on the motion of the piston.

But of course, there you go contradicting yourself in a single sentence.
You say it is pushing, but not pushing.
MAKE UP YOUR MIND!


Have you figured out the answers to the very simple questions you have been avoiding yet:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And remember, any answer you provide for the first question also needs to address why it works for the gas but not the rocket.

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim?

Say youre climbing a mountain.
The mountain starts at sea level.
On the up side you are above the sea (positive pressure value) and positive rate (rate) of ascent.
On the down side you are still above sea level, but with a negative rate of ascent (meaning downward rate).
Its not until you reach sea level and enter the gully that you go below sea level (negative pressure).

I should have picked this up earlier but you claim "it means it has negative pressure upon it".
But there can never be a negative pressure in a gas. The pressure can be less than atmospheric pressure and many pressure gauges read only the difference.
In a solid a negative pressure is quite possible and is called tension.
Under rather special conditions, even a liquid cab sustain a negative pressure but gas can never sustain a negative pressure.

Nope.
The gauge does not read a definitive anything when the valve is open. It's a ever decreasing gauge pointer which has no definitive set number to gauge anything on it. Note that I say on it.

This is the crux of the matter we're dealing with in terms of the gauge.
I've already explained what happens with the piston and spring and how it is allowed to push behind the outgoing gas once the valve is opened.
The gas no longer pushes against the gauge with any positive force.

Let's make this clear.
If the gas is not applying a positive pressure to the gauge then the gauge will either show a needle fall or show zero.
If it applying positive pressure then the gauge needle will stay put over zero or advance forward of zero. It's as simple as that.

Nope, not at all and you know this because it's been told time and time and time again.

There is pressure applied to the gauge by two means to push against a piston and spring to give a positive reading of pressure either pushing into the container or sealed into the container.

Can't be any simpler than that and in no way am I saying gauges don't work. So let's make that crystal clear.


However, once the valve is opened the gas all follow in that direction by natural expansion/decompression away from the gauge and the gauge shows this by showing a negative pressure drop.

The reason for this is because the gas is no longer pushing against the piston with the same positive force. The piston is pushing against the gas and the gas is now resisting that push as it expands behind other gases.

There is too much evidence against it. The gauge builders build gauges used everywhere being able to show pressure and pressure must be applied to the gauge whether it be moving up of down. Sorry, your claim that gauges don't work as designed when they do everywhere is unaccepted and unacceptable.

Here, look at how different gauges work:



You just can't claim pressure gauges work differently than the people who design and make them, especially by just saying so with no evidence.

Sorry, you lose and therefore lose the rocket in space debate because your notion of pressure inside a container, when applying Newton's 3rd can allow for a reactionary movement in the opposite direction based upon gas being mass.

There is a negative drop.
Meaning the overall pressure decreases.
But once again - starting at 10psi and going to 1psi, 1psi is still a positive number even though there was a loss of 9psi.




As per scpeti
The air inside is not pushing with the same force because the pressure is being rekeased (sponges are allowed to decomp) through the hole.
But there still is a positive force!

Sure, if you don't care about having a working model that can explain reality, you don't need to change anything.
However if you do want a working model which doesn't contradict itself and which can explain reality you do need to change a fair bit.

Again you don't address what was said at all.

The simple fact is the gauge has a positive reading.
This shows pressure is acting on the gauge.

I've already explained what happens
No, you haven't.
You have repeatedly avoided it and contradicted yourself.
If the gas is not pushing against the gauge, the gauge will read 0, and it will get there very quickly.

If the gas is not applying a positive pressure to the gauge then the gauge will either show a needle fall or show zero.
No. Lets get this clear.
Without a positive pressure the gauge shows 0.
The only way to stop the gauge falling back to 0 very rapidly is to apply a force to the gauge.
It's as simple as that.

the gas is now resisting that push as it expands behind other gases.
Again, the only way for the gas to resist is for it to apply a force.
No force, no resistance.

And again, you avoid the very simple questions which show your model to be nothing more than childish fantasy:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And remember, any answer you provide for the first question also needs to address why it works for the gas but not the rocket.

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

It's resisting the push just like all the gas molecules are doing all the way through.
The issue is, it's not creating a positive push on the gauge and this is the key.....unless the pressure is sealed or pushed against the gauge by force.
I may not win the argument with you but you certainly won't win it with me, because I believe I'm correct.

Quote from: Stash

I could build a gauge and so could you. It doesn't mean you have to know the exact molecular workings. All you have to know is whether it can move a needle when force is applied. Hold the needle when applied force is sealed or show a negative movement when that force is channelled opposite to that gauge.

I win the rocket in space debate for a number of reasons and reasons that logical thinking people should clearly see.

1. Nothing moves without external resistance to applied energy.

2. 3000 tonne rockets are certainly not going to stand upright holding the fuel we are told and managing to lift off and do so at thousands and thousands of mph, even working against atmosphere, let alone supposedly kicking themselves up their own arses.

3. Space does not exist in how we're told, as a nothingness or with silly scattered particles or whatever.

So therefore I do not lose and you certainly do not win.

Incorrect.
If the gauge showed 1...2...3...etc as a set 1 or 2 or 3 , etc, then the force on the gauge is a positive force of pressure, aided by the equal positive force against the closed valve and the container itself.

The only way to stop the gauge falling back to 0 very rapidly is to apply a force to the gauge.
It's as simple as that.
It doesn't matter whether it falls back very rapidly or whether it falls back over 2 weeks in a consistent depressurisation, it does not apply a positive force to the gauge.
It does however apply a positive force to the valve opening.


Quote from: JackBlack

the gas is now resisting that push as it expands behind other gases.
Again, the only way for the gas to resist is for it to apply a force.
No force, no resistance.
Yes it applies a force of resistance to the gauge piston and spring if the valve is open but it is not a positive force towards the gauge. It is now a positive force towards the open valve.


Quote from: JackBlack

And again, you avoid the very simple questions which show your model to be nothing more than childish fantasy:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
Gas.
It's pushing against each molecule of gas by natural expansion of each molecule due to it being compressed by applied energy.

Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
It doesn't magically know, it simply follows the natural decompression state from a compressed state, when allowed, by opening the valve to allow it to decompress/expand against a lesser resistance to it.

Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?
I'm not quite sure what you mean on this. Maybe clarify it a bit more.


Quote from: JackBlack

And remember, any answer you provide for the first question also needs to address why it works for the gas but not the rocket.
The rocket is just the object atop the gas fight. It's the container that holds the compression, ready for super expansion against a lesser resistance at first which becomes a super compressed reactionary push.
The rocket simply sits on that gas on gas fight like a hovercraft sits above the sea or land.

The only difference is the rocket provides it's own tower build by expelling its fuel directly for quick thrust and by doing so it rides on it and the atmospheric gas fight meaning it rises into the air.

With a hovercraft or even a helicopter, it doesn't expend it's gas directly in one continuous expansion, meaning to get hose craft up higher you would literally have to raise the floor under them in a set hover thrust.

Quote from: JackBlack

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?
What evidence does mainstream have for showing it to work differently?

No more than I have.

Lets try another analogy.

A teeter totter.
You have 10x10lb, on left and a single 10lb weight on right.
The scale will show the roght side up in the air.
Yes no?

Assume yes.
Take off one weight off the left side.
90lbs left.
The right will still be up in the air.
90>10
Yes no?

Assume yes.

If the right is still up in the air, there is still a force pushing down on the left.
Regaddless of how fast you choose to remove the weights, this is a fact.

Lets get this clear.
Without a positive pressure the gauge shows 0.
Incorrect.
If the gauge showed 1...2...3...etc as a set 1 or 2 or 3 , etc, then the force on the gauge is a positive force of pressure, aided by the equal positive force against the closed valve and the container itself.


Quote from: JackBlack

The only way to stop the gauge falling back to 0 very rapidly is to apply a force to the gauge.
It's as simple as that.
It doesn't matter whether it falls back very rapidly or whether it falls back over 2 weeks in a consistent depressurisation, it does not apply a positive force to the gauge.
It does however apply a positive force to the valve opening.



Are 1, 2, or 3 positive numbers?

Of course the needle moves in sucession - we live in a analog world.

What if needle read 3, 2, 1?
A negative direction dossnt mean there is still no positive force applied.

And 2nd to that.
If the gas is flowing.
The sponge people off a bus are:
1.Sponges - expanding molecules
2.People - molecules of set size
3.Sponge people - moeluces that are able to expand and are able to move.


If molecules can move.
They can be removed.
And space can exist.
And vaccuums can exist which part of your premise that - "they cant exist" - is incorrect.

2nd premise, relies on "gas on gas fight" or "push on push" is the causw of motion.
If gas is pushing in all directions (whcih is what stash jackB and myself have been getting at), the gas pushing on the inside of the container (rember in all directions) pushss the rocket in one direction while flying out the back side and there is no reliance on outside atmo-air.
Mass flow x velocity is a thing.

You lose on both.
Or you can deny what you mean by flow.
Then you are contradicting yourself and thus invalidate your argument and we can bid you good day, thanks for coming out, and we appreciate the mental exercise in critical thinking.

Lets get this clear.
Without a positive pressure the gauge shows 0.
Incorrect.
Repeatedly asserting the same nonsense will not help you.
If you want to assert that the gauge can show a positive value without having a force applied to it you need to explain how.
How does the gauge not very rapidly return to 0, considering there is a significant force pushing in that direction.
The only way to stop it is to apply a force.
Even if you want to call that a "resistance" that still demands a force.

Yes it applies a force of resistance to the gauge piston and spring if the valve is open
So you admit that it applies a force.
It doesn't matter if you want to pretend that isn't a force or isn't a pressure towards the gauge, the simple fact is that that is what it must be.
It is a force acting towards the gauge.
That is why the gauge still shows a pressure reading.

And then the same situation happens with a rocket.
The gas provides a "force of resistance" i.e. a very real force pushing into the rocket.
The big difference is the rocket no longer has a spring to combat that force and thus it moves.

Quote from: JackBlack

And again, you avoid the very simple questions which show your model to be nothing more than childish fantasy:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
Gas.
Which again means the rocket can push off the gas and the rocket works in a vacuum.

Repeating the same non answers wont help you.
I made that quite clear.
In order for this to be an answer you need to explain clearly how this allows the gas to move but not the rocket.
Your main objection against a rocket working in a vacuum is that there is nothing for it to push off.
But that same argument works against the gas.
By saying the gas can push off the gas, that allows the rocket to push off the gas as well, otherwise you have a contradiction.

It doesn't magically know, it simply follows the natural decompression state
No, it's "natural" state is to push outwards in all directions.
You are having it defy this natural state by instead only pushing and moving towards one direction.

Quote from: JackBlack

How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?
I'm not quite sure what you mean on this. Maybe clarify it a bit more.
I have explained it repeatedly. It is quite clear you understand what is meant.
You claim the gas is only pushing towards the opening (to avoid it pushing in the opposite direction and allowing rockets to work in a vacuum).
But you also admit that motion requires push-on-push, i.e. in order for an object to move to the right, it must push on something to the left such that it pushes back to the right and move the object to the right.
This means that in order for the gas to move towards the opening it needs to push back away from the opening so that what is further away pushes back.

But now you have admitted the gas does push backwards.

The only difference is the rocket provides it's own tower
No, the difference is that the hovercraft relies upon the ground effect, where the escape speed of the air below it depends upon the gap. If the gap gets too large then more air escapes and the pressure drops.
A rocket doesn't have this issue.

What evidence does mainstream have for showing it to work differently?
Mountains of evidence, which you have completely ignored. (Including the reality of rockets working in a vacuum)
But again, you dodge the question.
You are trying to use your nonsense to refute the reality of rockets working in a vacuum.
If all you have is wild speculation, then you have nothing.
So again, what evidence do you have for your model?

It's resisting the push just like all the gas molecules are doing all the way through.
Yes, by pushing outwards in all directions, and as a reactionary force due to its own mass.
That means it is pushing on the gauge, and that is key.

They work how I say they work by my theory which makes perfect sense.
Nobody has proved me wrong.
Ignoring all the times you have been proven wrong doesn't mean you haven't been proven wrong. It just means you are rejecting reality.
We have shown that they CANNOT work as your pile of nonsense (it is nothing like a theory) claims.

I win the rocket in space debate for a number of reasons and reasons that logical thinking people should clearly see.
No, you have lost it repeatedly.
Especially due to your complete inability to show anything wrong with the known model of how gases work, and your complete inability to answer extremely simple questions which put you in an impossible position.

Baselessly asserting that your model is correct with absolutely nothing to justify it does not make you win a debate.
Baselessly asserting that something must be wrong when you have no rational argument and instead just appeal to your own incredulity does not make you win a debate.
Both of those tactics are typically used by those who can't win to try and pretend they have.

1. Nothing moves without external resistance to applied energy.
i.e. the gas must remain inside the rocket, even when it is exposed to a vacuum.
If there is enough external resistance to allow the gas to move, then you have external resistance which can allow the rocket to move.

So again, which is it? Do rockets work in a vacuum, or does the gas magically stay trapped?

2. 3000 tonne rockets are certainly not going to stand upright holding the fuel we are told and managing to lift off and do so at thousands and thousands of mph, even working against atmosphere, let alone supposedly kicking themselves up their own arses.
Why not?
Again, do you have any rational argument against it?
So far all you do is just dismiss it and try and attack it with your unsubstantiated nonsense.

3. Space does not exist in how we're told, as a nothingness or with silly scattered particles or whatever.
Another baseless assertion.

So therefor you do lose and those on the side arguing against you, showing clearly that rockets do work in a vacuum and that your nonsense is wrong are the victors.

We aren't arguing this.
So if we aren't arguing that, why bring it up?
The issue is while it is still dropping. The gauge is still reading a positive value.

Are 1, 2, or 3 positive numbers?
Only if counted upwards and not backwards.
Seriously?
You want to assert such pure nonsense?
1, 2 and 3 are positive numbers REGARDLESS OF ANYTHING ELSE!

Again, you are mixing up value and rate.
1, 2, and 3 are always positive values.
If the value is increasing, e.g. 1, 2, 3, then the rate is positive.
If it is constant then the rate is 0.
If it is decreasing, then the rate is negative.
A negative rate does not mean a negative value.

Quote from: Themightykabool
You still seem not to understand the difference between RATE and VALUE.
I perfectly understand rate and value.
So you are lying to us and you perfectly understand that what you are saying is wrong.


Bad analogy.
HOW?
Just what is wrong with it?
When you present a horrible analogy people typically explain what is wrong with it.
But this analogy which seems to be fine to deal with your claim, you just dismiss.

This makes me think you recognise it is a quite good analogy which shows you are wrong.

In this case it would be the flow of the needle
You could say that. The motion of the needle is the flow or rate. Whatever pressure it is indicating is the value.

So if it shows 100 bar, it is a positive value, regardless of the rate (i.e. how the needle is moving).

Of course it's under pressure, why wouldn't it be?
And that means it has pressure pushing outwards in all directions.
That is what under pressure means.
So that means even with an opening, the gas is still pushing out in all directions.

At around 10:20 it fills with smoke. Do you know what that means?

It means the same as existence of the exhaust behind the rocket engine in Moon orbit.
If rocket can push off air, it can also push off that exhaust.

Ah ok.
Lets take this as a rule.
If the stack om stack of sponges expands, rising like a loaf of bread, and the rocket sits on this stack, is the rocket not being lifted by said stack?

If yes, then guess what?

If no, then the rocket dossnt move because of the air and you need to come up with a new reason the rocket moves (within the atmoplane).
Lets keep this to the water rocket.
Youve yet to clearly describe what the water does (and by clearly is because you nonsensly strung together a bunch of words that dont describe shtall).
And now youve negated the requirement for air.

If the gas is resisting the piston in any way it is pushing, applying pressure and registering pressure in the gauge. You literally cannot win the gauge argument.
It's resisting the push just like all the gas molecules are doing all the way through.
The issue is, it's not creating a positive push on the gauge and this is the key.....unless the pressure is sealed or pushed against the gauge by force.
I may not win the argument with you but you certainly won't win it with me, because I believe I'm correct.

Quote from: Stash

There is too much evidence against it. The gauge builders build gauges used everywhere being able to show pressure and pressure must be applied to the gauge whether it be moving up of down.
I could build a gauge and so could you. It doesn't mean you have to know the exact molecular workings. All you have to know is whether it can move a needle when force is applied. Hold the needle when applied force is sealed or show a negative movement when that force is channelled opposite to that gauge.

Quote from: Stash
  Sorry, your claim that gauges don't work as designed when they do everywhere is unaccepted and unacceptable.

Here, look at how different gauges work:



You just can't claim pressure gauges work differently than the people who design and make them, especially by just saying so with no evidence.

They work how I say they work by my theory which makes perfect sense.
Nobody has proved me wrong.

But that's the thing, they don't work how you say they work. Humans design and manufacture such devices to work specifically by showing the level of pressure whether it's going up or going down or standing still. That is the point of a pressure gauge and why people have them.

For instance, from Marshall, a company that manufactures gauges:

"How Does a Mechanical Gauge Work?

Mechanical gauges utilize an internal bourdon tube. One end of the bourdon tube is connected to a gear and shaft assembly that moves a pointer. When the pressure inside the bourdon tube increases, the bourdon tube uncoils slightly. The amount of uncoiling that occurs is proportional to the pressure inside the bourdon tube. As the tube uncoils, its motion activates the gear and shaft system that turns the pointer on the gauge. While all that you see when you look at the gauge is the pointer moving, you should understand that there is a small, bent tube (the bourdon tube) that's coiling and uncoiling with each change in the pressure inside that tube.
"
http://www.marshallinstruments.com/faqs/detail.cfm?id=22

You see, the makers of such devices do so to register pressure going up and down. Which means pressure on the pressure gauge either way because that's how it is designed to work. And here you are claiming that no, there's no pressure as it's going down yet there is still a pressure reading? The way these gauges are designed, if there is no pressure the gauge reads 0. That's the fact jack. Unless you have something other than you just saying so, like evidence, your notion is directly contradicted by the makers of the devices.

Again, that is going to the path of pure insanity of declaring positive numbers negative or intentionally mixing up rate and value.
100 bar is a positive value.
As such, it if a gauge reads 100 bar, it is reading a positive value.
100 can never be negative.
This is not a difficult concept to understand.

Nope. Not unless you allow it to by breaching all directions of the container.
That is only required for it to move outwards in all directions. To push outwards in all directions it doesn't need any breaches and doesn't care where breaches are.

And of course, you still avoid those simple questions which show your claims to be pure fantasy.
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And remember, any answer you provide for the first question also needs to address why it works for the gas but not the rocket.

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

All that means is, it decompresses quicker with each breach, until equalised with external pressure.

Because in an open valve the air molecules are expanding out of that valve into lesser pressure against that direct gas push on push out of the valve.
This happens because all the molecules are now decompressing towards that valve at different rates but nevertheless still decompressing which creates the super resistive overall push by that staggered decompression, against the external air resistance.
While this is happening you can look at it like the air is funnelling towards the exit or sliding down the walls with less and less force against those walls, which is all negative unless the valve is closed on that pressure or pressure forced back in.

Quote from: Themightykabool
(And think, like your arms, you could push all day against a brick wall.

If you want to use the wall idea then you need to know how it's used.
It's like you pushing against the wall which does not move.
This would be like a closed container.
You now have the wall moving towards you and pushing you back.
This would be pressure added to you.

Or.....You are pushing against the wall as it starts to move away from your push.
All that will happen is your arms decompress to follow the wall and soon enough the wall will end up at the end of your outstretched arms where you can no longer push...and it holds there, just like gas follows gas out of a valve.

If the stack on stack of sponges expands, rising like a loaf of bread, and the rocket sits on this stack, is the rocket not being lifted by said stack?

If yes, then guess what?

The rocket is being lifted by the thrust of its own gases against the stack below which creates a direct super compression in that stack.
That super compression has to decompress again but as it does it's hit by the super expansion of rocket gases, time and time and time again for as long as those gases expand into it and compress.

However, whilst this is being done a barrier has been created and a consistent decompression is already taking place at every point during this.

The rocket sits atop it all for as long as it can keep doing what it's doing.

It's gas on gas expansion to compression fight that allows the rocket to be moved, not the actual rocket itself.
Oh...and by the way....this is the basics for everything but we don;t need to go into that.

Absolutely as long as it is 100 bar as a set number.

Absolutely. As long as the gauge reads 100 bar consistently.


Quote from: JackBlack
100 can never be negative.
This is not a difficult concept to understand.
Correct, 100 cannot be negative as long as it stays as 100 and obviously assuming a gauge is not faulty...but we won't bother with that.

You see1, 2, 3, 4, 50, 100, 1000...etrc...cannot be negative as long as they read a definitive set number or advance in numbers.

The conundrum (in terms of us arguing) starts when they don't do either.
This is the crux of the argument.

You see, 100 on a gauge will show 100 when positive pressure allows that gauge to set that pointer at 100.
If the pressure is added then immediately that 100 ceases to become 100. It may advance to say 100.00000001 or whatever. Or to make it simpler, 101.

This is an increasing pressure so everything is still positive and every number from 1 to 101 is still positive because every number from 1 to 101 is holding all that pressure.

However, if you open a valve to release that pressure you negate the positive pressure on the gauge. It no longer has any definitive set reading to the positive until you cease to allow the pressure towards the exit, to stop.
And only then can you read a gauge and see a positive pressure once again, whether it's down to 55,23,10 or 1 or 0.1.

Failure to shut down a valve renders the gauge as a negative, pressure wise. No gas is pushing positively into that gauge.

No.

If you riddle the container with holes you divert the expansion directly near those holes as an instant expansion against the resistance of what is external to it.
The only difference in this case would be a much quicker gas release due to the many exits.

Quite simple if thought about.

You are claiming there is no "positive" pressure. There's no such thing. The folks that manufacture pressure gauges do so with the intent that pressure is pushing on their gauge to register a reading. Whether the gauge is moving up or down. That is critical to how the gauges work, how they are read by the observer for millions of systems around the world. Critical.
And you come along and say, without evidence, that those millions of gauges are not registering a pressure on the gauge but some made up "negative" pressure. That's not how the device is designed nor used.

Bottomline, the device, as designed, if it has a reading, it has pressure on it. There's no such thing as positive and negative pressure when the reading is above 0. That is a simple fact.

So unless you have evidence to the contrary and not just, "well that doesn't fit my theory," I'm afraid the standard of simple pressure gauges blows up your theory. As all evidence points to you being wrong.

Well let's clarify positive and negative pressure from my side in terms of the gauge.

Let's assume a gauge with a piston on a spring just for the sake of argument.
You know you have to apply/positively push something (gas in this in stance) against that piston in order for it to move the spring to allow the pointer to move forward or to read a positive measurement on that gauge.


I'm assuming you'll accept this.

Ok, that's all positive pressure in a sealed container or a container with pressure added.

Open a valve and all that positive pressure is now pushing against the atmospheric resistance due to the gas on gas expansion of molecules inside the container all trying to expand but having to wait their turn to fully do it to equalise outside atmosphere but are all channelled towards the exit.

Behind them is the gauge and this gauge is no longer showing positive pressure on the needle, the piston or the spring. It's all negative because now it's simply a resistance to the spring compression.

That's all fine and cool, but that's not how the manufacturers of pressure gauges build their gauges to work nor is it how they are read by millions of systems/humans around the world; When the gauge is going down, it is still reading pressure which is still pressing equally on all sides of the container, including the gauge. Otherwise, as designed, the gauge would read 0. Simple.

That's what the gauges of the world do and are designed to do and that's what the people of the world who critically rely on them expect.

So unless you can show any evidence to the contrary other than you just saying, "It doesn't fit my theory", I'm afraid you lose. Because the evidence against your theory is overwhelming and you have yet to show any, not even a smidge.

The wall is solid enough to resist.
But youre still pushing.
If the wall were to suddenly crumble, you would bust outwards.
If you werent pushing, and the wall were to suddenly crumble, youd be standing there not moving.

Yes no?

with less and less force against those walls
So again you admit it is still applying a force to the wall?

which is all negative
That would mean it would be sucking the wall in, meaning the gauge should reach 0 faster than just removing the pressure and the balloon should shrink faster.

You now have the wall moving towards you and pushing you back.
This would be pressure added to you.
No, the wall isn't moving.

Or.....You are pushing against the wall as it starts to move away from your push.
Again, you are still pushing.

which creates a direct super compression in that stack.
How?
You are claiming something never observed, gases magically creating a region of compressed gas, more compressed than the initial gas.

Oh...and by the way....this is the basics for everything but we don;t need to go into that.
No, it is the basis for nothing, as it results in so many contradictions and can't actually explain things.


No I'm not claiming there's no pressure. I'm claiming there's no positive pressure on a gauge that is part of an open system.
This is what you need to understand and don't mix it all up.
Perhaps you should stop using made up terms and instead stick to the terms everyone has already agreed upon.
If there is pressure, it is positive, and thus it should be positive pressure.
What you seem to mean by "no positive pressure" is a reducing positive pressure.

Stick to one specific thing and deal with that before going into others. It's be much less frustrating.
It will also be completely uninformative.
One of the big issues with all your nonsense is the massive amounts of contradictions.
Bringing up 2 or more things and showing how your explanations contradict each other shows that.

If you can only handle making up an explanation for a single thing you have no model.

No it's not going into any path of insanity.
No, it is pure insanity.
You are claiming a positive number is not positive.
You are doing this because this value is decreasing.
A rate being negative does not make the value negative.

I'm not mixing up rate or value.
If that was the case you would admit 100 is positive, regardless of how it is changing.
You are literally appealing to the rate to pretend it has an effect on if a value is positive.

The only question is if you truly don't understand or if you are intentionally being dishonest.

The conundrum (in terms of us arguing) starts when they don't do either.
There is no actual conundrum. It is just you insanely rejecting reality.
It doesn't matter what the numbers are doing as long as the remain above 0 they remain positive.

There is no way for a positive number to magically become negative just because you got to it by going down.

There are plenty of examples to show that.
If you weigh 100 kg, and lose 10 kg, you now weigh 90 kg. Does that mean your weight is negative? NO! It is still positive.
If you were on the 10th floor of a building and go down 1, are you now underground/on a negative floor? NO! You are on floor 9, a positive floor.
If you have $100 and give someone $10, are you now magically in debt? NO! you still have $90, a positive amount.

The rate has no effect on if a value is positive or negative.

And yet again, you ignore very simple questions which show your model to be pure fantasy.
Your repeated avoidance of these simple questions shows your model is completely incapable of explaining anything (at least not without contradicting itself). Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And remember, any answer you provide for the first question also needs to address why it works for the gas but not the rocket.

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

If you riddle the container with holes you divert the expansion directly near those holes as an instant expansion against the resistance of what is external to it.
Again, this only makes sense if the gas continues to try and expand outwards in all directions, i.e. it pushes outwards in all directions.
If the nonsense you spout is true, and the gas magically stops pushing outwards in all directions and instead just heads in 1 direction towards the opening, there is no more reason for it to expand out new holes.

Quite simple if thought about.
Yes, it is quite simple if you actually think about it. But it seems you don't want to.
This, along with so many other things, shows that gas pushes outwards in ALL DIRECTIONS, ALL THE TIME!

Again, do you have a single thing which indicates otherwise, other than your baseless claims and wild speculation?

You know you have to apply/positively push something (gas in this in stance) against that piston in order for it to move the spring to allow the pointer to move forward or to read a positive measurement on that gauge.
I'm assuming you'll accept this.
The problem is that you don't accept this.
You straight up reject it, contradicting yourself in the process.

Yes the gas needs to push on the piston for the spring to have a positive reading.
Yet you then go and claim it doesn't need that or just pretend that a positive reading is somehow negative.

I take a photo of a pressure gauge.
It shows the gauge with a needle at 100 bar.
What is the pressure inside the container?
Is it positive?
Does the gauge read a positive measurement?

So if thevposition of the needle is positive then there is possitive presure on the needle.
Only if the pressure is being compressed more or compressed in a stable manner.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Gas pushes out in all directions.

Only when the gas is compressed or in a stable manner.

Once the valve is opened it ceases to push in all directions.

Then air would only escape from one hole in a tire with two holes!


Until pressure is zero, air pushes in all directions.
No it wouldn't (red bold).
The air will decompress towards any breach, however many holes.
All that means is, it decompresses quicker with each breach, until equalised with external pressure.

In the case of the airfilled crazy arm thing.
The fan provides a continuous supply if new air and maintains pressurization.
This pressure is seen by the fact the flexible tube is expanded.
When tge fan momentarily turns off, rhe tube rapidly loses the pressure as it equalizes with the outside air.
This proves you wrong and proves what stash is saying - gasses exerrt pressure in all directions, always.

Title: Re: HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)
Post by: Themightykabool on November 20, 2019, 12:25:57 AM
Lets take this as a rule.
If the stack on stack of sponges expands, rising like a loaf of bread, and the rocket sits on this stack, is the rocket not being lifted by said stack?

If yes, then guess what?

The rocket is being lifted by the thrust of its own gases against the stack below which creates a direct super compression in that stack.
That super compression has to decompress again but as it does it's hit by the super expansion of rocket gases, time and time and time again for as long as those gases expand into it and compress.

However, whilst this is being done a barrier has been created and a consistent decompression is already taking place at every point during this.

The rocket sits atop it all for as long as it can keep doing what it's doing.

It's gas on gas expansion to compression fight that allows the rocket to be moved, not the actual rocket itself.
Oh...and by the way....this is the basics for everything but we don;t need to go into that.

Ok then
So you failed to make the logical connection.
Lets finish the thought.

The stack pushes the rocket up.
There is a force on the bottom side of the rpcket created by the gas.
That means the gas is oushing on the rocket even though the bottom is open.
That means the gas IS PUSHING on the rocket even though...
That means the GAS IS PUSHIN UP, the oppoiste direction of the hole.
That menas theres pressure on the opposite side of the hole.
That means...????

Post by: Themightykabool on November 20, 2019, 12:26:57 AM
I've been sticking to one specific thing for pages; the pressure gauge and how it works.
You are claiming there is no "positive" pressure. There's no such thing. The folks that manufacture pressure gauges do so with the intent that pressure is pushing on their gauge to register a reading.

 Whether the gauge is moving up or down. That is critical to how the gauges work, how they are read by the observer for millions of systems around the world. Critical.
And you come along and say, without evidence, that those millions of gauges are not registering a pressure on the gauge but some made up "negative" pressure. That's not how the device is designed nor used.
Well let's clarify positive and negative pressure from my side in terms of the gauge.

Let's assume a gauge with a piston on a spring just for the sake of argument.
You know you have to apply/positively push something (gas in this in stance) against that piston in order for it to move the spring to allow the pointer to move forward or to read a positive measurement on that gauge.


I'm assuming you'll accept this.

Ok, that's all positive pressure in a sealed container or a container with pressure added.

Open a valve and all that positive pressure is now pushing against the atmospheric resistance due to the gas on gas expansion of molecules inside the container all trying to expand but having to wait their turn to fully do it to equalise outside atmosphere but are all channelled towards the exit.

Behind them is the gauge and this gauge is no longer showing positive pressure on the needle, the piston or the spring. It's all negative because now it's simply a resistance to the spring compression.
Quote from: Stash
Bottomline, the device, as designed, if it has a reading, it has pressure on it. There's no such thing as positive and negative pressure when the reading is above 0. That is a simple fact.


Quote from: Stash
So unless you have evidence to the contrary and not just, "well that doesn't fit my theory," I'm afraid the standard of simple pressure gauges blows up your theory. As all evidence points to you being wrong.

In all tgese wrods you did not clarify "negative".
Try sgain.

Post by: Themightykabool on November 20, 2019, 12:32:08 AM
Again, that is going to the path of pure insanity of declaring positive numbers negative or intentionally mixing up rate and value.
No it's not going into any path of insanity.
It's going into a path of people like yourself refusing to understand my point.

I'm not mixing up rate or value. In fact I'm explaining why one and the other work in this situation.
You see, I'm not declaring set positive numbers as negative and you need to understand the word, set.

Quote from: JackBlack
100 bar is a positive value.
Absolutely as long as it is 100 bar as a set number.


Quote from: JackBlack
As such, it if a gauge reads 100 bar, it is reading a positive value.
Absolutely. As long as the gauge reads 100 bar consistently.


Quote from: JackBlack
100 can never be negative.
This is not a difficult concept to understand.
Correct, 100 cannot be negative as long as it stays as 100 and obviously assuming a gauge is not faulty...but we won't bother with that.

You see1, 2, 3, 4, 50, 100, 1000...etrc...cannot be negative as long as they read a definitive set number or advance in numbers.

The conundrum (in terms of us arguing) starts when they don't do either.
This is the crux of the argument.

You see, 100 on a gauge will show 100 when positive pressure allows that gauge to set that pointer at 100.
If the pressure is added then immediately that 100 ceases to become 100. It may advance to say 100.00000001 or whatever. Or to make it simpler, 101.

This is an increasing pressure so everything is still positive and every number from 1 to 101 is still positive because every number from 1 to 101 is holding all that pressure.

However, if you open a valve to release that pressure you negate the positive pressure on the gauge. It no longer has any definitive set reading to the positive until you cease to allow the pressure towards the exit, to stop.
And only then can you read a gauge and see a positive pressure once again, whether it's down to 55,23,10 or 1 or 0.1.

Failure to shut down a valve renders the gauge as a negative, pressure wise. No gas is pushing positively into that gauge.

So you admit you have no clue wtf rate and value is.

a SET of positive nubmer VALUES shows the needle moving in the positive RATE direction.
The same SET of positivr number VALUES can be run in reverse to shows the needle moving in a negative RATE.

The presure gauge is not sentient either.
It doesnt know its moving in a specific direction.
Unless you claim otherwise?


"Failure to shut down a valve renders the gauge as a negative, pressure wise. No gas is pushing positively into that gauge."

So althoug in reality a gauge shows positive vlaues in a set (aka negative rate 100, 99, 98...) in your statement above there is no gas pushing on the gauge.
Are you under the belief that because the gauge is analog it reuqires time for it to adjust and this transit is just a function of the needle having to move in general?

Yep, because the expansion would be immediate for that full area, pushed by the gradual but quick expansion of the gas behind and around it.

If you weren't pushing even when the wall wasn't crumbling you're still not pushing when it does, which means you would be in an empty tank or an equalised tank with external atmosphere.

Youre leaning very happily.
The wal were to suddeningly crumble.
You fall through.
Because you wwre leaning and then suddwnly lose support.

If you werent leaning
You wouldnt magically fall through unless you decided to lean.
So the gas, pressing on the gauge, even though the back is open is false accordig to you.
The is moving out the back, is NOT pressing on the gauge - however, in movies and in realife, whne the internal pressure exceeds the container you see rivets popping off, gauges hissing and busting off, actual tears in solid metal forming as the gasses rush out.

Guess what point im trying to make.
Possibly the same point everyones been arguing with you for the last 10pg.

Post by: JackBlack on November 20, 2019, 12:23:01 PM
Yep, as long as the pressure is positive, meaning contained or added to.
No, meaning note negative.
Again, the rate has no effect on if the value is positive or negative.
Stop pretending it does and start speaking English.


You need to clarify whatever it is you're trying to get across.
No clarification is needed, it is really quite simple.
If you stand next to a wall doing nothing and the wall collapses, you stay standing there (unless you decide to run).
But if you push or lean against a wall, and the wall falls, you move towards where the wall was.

Without pushing against (or towards) the wall, you have no reason to move towards it when it breaks.
The same applies to your gas.
If the gas is all moving away from a wall and not pushing against it, if that wall breaks there is no reason for the gas to suddenly start moving out.

But if the gas was always pushing outwards in all directions, pushing against the wall, then when it breaks, it will move outwards.

Hence the real model of gases which includes the fact that they push outwards in all directions at all times can explain this simple scenario, while your nonsense does not.

Where is the air loss?
Out the multitude of openings.
They will typically have at least 3, 1 for each arm and 1 for the head.
At no point was it ever enclosed, yet the pressure still acts on it to keep it "inflated".

So no, it proves you wrong.
You not liking that and claiming it proves you right doesn't mean it does. It just means you are rejecting reality yet again.

The expanded gas from the rocket (the burn in this case) compresses the stack down by that burning thrust and the resulting super compression now expanding back against what was expanded into it to compress it, crates the gas fight that the rocket sits atop of.
Again, this is pure nonsense.
How do you magically get the gas below more compressed?
The most compressed it will be is in the throat of the nozzle.

The rocket merely sits on this gas fight.
If the rocket merely sat on top, it would sit there going no where.
In order for the rocket to go upwards there must be a force acting on it pushing it up.

You keep mentioning sentient. Try and leave it out so you don;t waste your time.
The only waste of time here is you.
The simple fact is the way you have described your gas makes it appear sentient.
Normally gas tries to move outwards in all directions, pushing outwards in all directions.
But you claim for some reason it just magically stops doing that and instead just peacefully moves towards an opening.
But then if a new opening forms, without even pushing against it it somehow knows that it should turn around and move towards that opening.
This requires the gas to be sentient or be a highly advanced program.

Back in reality, the gas is not sentient. Instead it s just always pushing outwards in all directions.
And that works fine at explains so much, without contradicting itself or appealing to nonsense like sentient gas.

It's now resisting the gauge piston and spring
HOW?
Is it applying a force to the gauge? If so, that is applying a positive pressure to it.
Otherwise, it can't resist.
Again, speak English.
It is providing a decreasing, positive pressure.
The pressure being decreasing does not mean the value is not positive.

Again, there is no actual conundrum.
There is just you blatantly rejecting reality and making up new meanings for words.

The simple fact is all the available evidence shows that gases push outwards in all directions.
You have literally nothing to indicate otherwise.
Instead all you have is wild speculation based upon nothing, which requires so many contradictions and insane nonsense to try and prop up your fantasy.
And all of it is based upon a rejection of reality. You want Earth to be flat, so you feel a need to reject the reality of rockets working in a vacuum which clearly shows Earth is round, so you need to invent a whole new branch of physics with sentient gas to try and stop rockets working in a vacuum. But all you have done is gone down a path of pure insanity claiming positive numbers aren't positive and repeatedly contradicting yourself.

All while avoiding very simple questions which directly expose these contradictions.
Until you have consistent answers for all these questions which actually address the issue, you have nothing.
Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

Unfortunately for your theory that is not how pressure gauges are designed, manufactured and used. Pressure reading on a gauge is there because pressure is being applied. If there is no pressure, the gauge reads 0. In other words, pressure gauges the world over would have to be redesigned to work with your theory. They would have to be redesigned to show a pressure reading when no pressure is applied. So, sorry, the world's gauges do not currently support your theory.

Nothing wrong with my theory. Fix your own answers because it's only you that's creating your own issues in arguing for sentient.
You're told time and time again that the gas is compressed and just like a spring or a sponge or a ball or anything else that's compressed....it will decompress if allowed to. Not because it's sentient.

Understand this and you can then omit it from your typing and save yourself the extra pointless waste of your own time. Unless you're happy to keep typing it. I'm fine if you do but I will not be answering to it from this point on.

In the case of the airfilled crazy arm thing.
The fan provides a continuous supply if new air and maintains pressurization.
This pressure is seen by the fact the flexible tube is expanded.
When tge fan momentarily turns off, rhe tube rapidly loses the pressure as it equalizes with the outside air.
This proves you wrong and proves what stash is saying - gasses exerrt pressure in all directions, always.


It actually proves me right.
Where is the air loss?

The airbis flying iut the top of his head and ends of his arm.
Ut proves you wrong because its an open end yet the sides are pressurized.
You lose.
I am interested to hear from sceptimatic how this is possible.

How exiting gas makes the decision to push against one gas and not against another gas?
Compression by applied energy and decompression by allowing that energy to be released again to allow expansion.
See above.

If the rocket merely sat on top, it would sit there going no where.
And it would go nowhere if it didn't lose mass, which is does in abundance, allowing it to sit higher and higher until it has no more mass to lose.

Quote from: JackBlack
In order for the rocket to go upwards there must be a force acting on it pushing it up.
There are two forces.
The force created by the exiting gas which is burned to create the massive expansion into atmosphere to super compress that atmosphere in that stack and for the decompression of that stack to regain it's equilibrium but can't regain it wholly because of the consistent expansion of those rocket gases burning/thrusting into it, so it becomes a gas fight.

The presure gauge is not sentient either.
It doesnt know its moving in a specific direction.
Unless you claim otherwise?
You keep mentioning sentient. Try and leave it out so you don;t waste your time.
Quote from: Themightykabool
"Failure to shut down a valve renders the gauge as a negative, pressure wise. No gas is pushing positively into that gauge."

So althoug in reality a gauge shows positive vlaues in a set (aka negative rate 100, 99, 98...) in your statement above there is no gas pushing on the gauge.

It's now resisting the gauge piston and spring. It is not applying positive pressure.

Unfortunately for your theory that is not how pressure gauges are designed, manufactured and used. Pressure reading on a gauge is there because pressure is being applied. If there is no pressure, the gauge reads 0. In other words, pressure gauges the world over would have to be redesigned to work with your theory. They would have to be redesigned to show a pressure reading when no pressure is applied. So, sorry, the world's gauges do not currently support your theory.
My theory is pretty sound, as far as I'm concerned.
All you've just done is state the obvious of applied pressure and zero pressure. I'm not arguing applied or zero pressure.
Look back as to what I am arguing.

The gauges work exactly as you say, with pressure applied or pressure applied and held and contained.

So clearly I have zero issue with this.

The issue is in the gauge having negative pressure applied to it once there is a breach to the container or a valve opened, to me specific.

From that point on the gauge becomes the pusher against a resistant gas to that push, not the gas applying positive pressure to the actual gauge piston and spring.
This results in the piston and spring simply causing the needle to continually show a negative reading because it reads no definitive set number and not a number run to the positive.

"Resistant gas" is simply a euphemism for pressure. So when you close the valve, how does your "resistant gas" magically turn back into pressure? What's the difference?

A "negative reading" would be less than zero. Like a thermometer, "It's negative 10 degrees out, better bundle up..."

The world over relies on pressure gauges to tell them how much pressure there is in a given system, often times critical systems, whether it's going up or going down. So gauge watchers around the world should really be saying when a needle is going down, "We've got a resistant gas negative reading of 50 PSI..."? And when they slam the valve shut, "Okay, we have a positive pressure reading of 50..."?

Nothing wrong with my theory.
It is quite clear from your behaviour in this thread that there are massive problems with your theory.
You need to completely reject the meaning of words to pretend that a positive number is actually negative.
You need to repeatedly contradict yourself.
You are completely unable to answer extremely simple questions.
And you are completely unable to provide anything to back up your insane claims.

You're told time and time again that the gas is compressed and just like a spring or a sponge or a ball or anything else that's compressed....it will decompress if allowed to. Not because it's sentient.
If it was like them it would be pushing outwards in all directions.
You can easily see this with sponge balls as they push out against the wall of the container creating significant friction.
What you are claiming, where the gas magically stops pushing out in all directions and instead just marches towards the opening requires the gas to be sentient.

Understand this and then you might start to realise just how nonsensical your nonsense is.

The question was answered in the question.
Only if you admit you are wrong, as it goes directly against your explanation.
According to your pile of nonsense, the gas is just moving towards the opening and shouldn't be pushing outwards on the tube.


And it would go nowhere if it didn't lose mass
That is only an argument if you accept reality where it throwing mass backwards means it needs to move forwards, but that applies in a vacuum to.
If we instead reject reality and accept your nonsense with the rocket just sitting on top of the gas without the gas pushing it up, it should just sit there. In fact, it should actually fall to the ground.

The force created by the exiting gas which is burned to create the massive expansion
Which would also work in a vacuum.

Also, you never seemed to say what the force is.
Do you mean there is high pressure gas beneath the rocket pushing it up?

My theory is pretty sound, as far as I'm concerned.
Your fantasy having your fantasy be sound means nothing.
We have shown numerous problems with your fantasy.
It is not sound in the slightest.

If your model was correct and the gas stops pushing outwards in all directions and instead just pushes towards the opening then the gauge will extremely quickly return to 0. The fact that it doesn't shows your model is wrong.
The only way for the gauge to not extremely quickly return to 0 is for the gas to continue to exert pressure on it to balance the force from the spring.

Instead of just accepting this reality, you go down a path of pure insanity where you conflate rate and value, pretending that a negative rate somehow magically makes the value negative, and that the gas instead of applying a force to the piston is instead just "resisting" the piston, i.e. applying a force to it. It is pure insanity.

And of course, yet again you avoid very simple questions which show you are wrong. Care to answer them or admit you are wrong, or just remain silent and stop spamming your nonsense?

What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

Think of a sink and plug hole. The plug is in and the sink is full of water.
At the top of that sink is a pressure gauge and it shows full.

You know the water is pushing against the sides of the sink and also against the bottom of the sink and also the mass of it is causing the pressure gauge to read full, for that sink.

There is positive pressure all around that sink.
Ok, now you take out the plug and you are now allowing that water to overcome the resistance to it below that plug hole and equally you know that all the water is flowing in the direction towards that plug hole.

Instead of the water pushing against the sides, it is now simply moving towards the hole as is the water from the gauge, which now sees the gauge simply following the water down by the diaphragm decompressing to lower the needle because there is now no pressure pushing against it enough to effect positive pressure.
All the positive pressure is going out of the plug hole leaving the pressure in the opposite direction, only a resistant pressure to the gauge drop.




Quote from: Stash

A negative reading in a sealed pressure vessel would not exist, as long as there was a pressure inside of it.

Think of a sink and plug hole.
You mean where the water is still exerting pressure, even while draining?

Instead of the water pushing against the sides
No, it is still pushing against the sides.
It doesn't magically stop just because it is flowing out.
All you are doing now is replacing one false assertion with another.

Yep and it works.
Yes, based upon real physics, not your fantasy.

That's when the pressure shows gauge positive.
Again, it doesn't matter what the rate is, if the value is positive, it is positive. The rate has no effect on that.
If it shows 50 psi, it is positive.

Do you understand that?
There have plenty of examples to show that.
Why do you refuse to admit that a positive value is positive, regardless of the rate?
Do you understand the meaning of the words being used?

And again, you avoid very simple questions. These questions aren't hard to answer for mainstream physics, probably because it doesn't have a deep seeded need to deny the reality of rockets working in a vacuum.
Yet they seem impossible for you.

And this is nesrly exactly my example of the water jug which so "confused you" earleir.

If you built a tower of slonges and sat a book on top.
The book would stay up in the air.
If the sponges expanded the book would rise up.
That means the sponges are pushing on the underside of the book.

PointA
If the water rocket has air leaving its bottom.
And the rocket is shown to fly up.
The rocket is - sitting on expanding air sponges?

PointB
If so, then yoy have to admit that as air is leaving the butt end, there is presaure exeeted on the inside end of the rocket to be pushing it up.
And if we put a gauge on there it would show positive values even if there was a negative rate/ declining set.

So how do you reconcile poont a with b and claim no contradiction?

How would a stack of compressing sponge (gets smaller) lift up a rocket?

If you had a stack of sponges, pushed down on them with you hand to compress them, are you gaining height or losing height?


2.
Ok
Lets stack this up:
Outside air-water-compresssd pressurizsd air in tube-tube.

Please highlight and tell us what the tube is in contact with?

Plus, as the rocket is ejecting water the rocket immediately starts to move.
Its not the water first ejected fully, then rocket starts to move.


3.
If there is no pressure on the rocket, whats pushing it up?!!
And dont give bs "press on gas on gas."
Because there is no direct contact between that useless description and the contact with the bottom of rhe rocket.
Tell us or show us what exactly is pushing the bottom, what is in direct contact with the bottom of the rocket, to cause it to go up.

This makes no sense at all.
If the sponges compress, that means their volume is reduced.
How does that magically make the book get higher?
That should make it get lower.
How does a shrinking support make something go higher?

Nope. If air is leaving then there cannot be an opposite push on a closed end inside a bottle/rocket.
Again, all the evidence shows otherwise.
If there is no push the rocket can't go up.
You need to have something pushing the rocket up and the only thing that can is the gas, which you claim can't be pushing it up.
Likewise, if it can't push on the other end, the gauge on the other end would rapidly go to 0, rather than continuing to show a positive value as the pressure inside slowly reduces.
Likewise, if it can't push away from the opening, then it can't keep the balloon expanded and it will rapidly shrink to its normal size.
Likewise, if it can't push away from the opening then then it can't keep the wacky wavy arm flailing tube man up being wacky and flailing its arms.

I never said there was no pressure. I said the pressure was negative, meaning it's not positive, meaning it's now simply resisting the gauge and not positively pushing the gauge.

It's only negative when there is a breach/open valve to the container. It's positive when it's contained or added to in a container.

Quite simple to understand.

Yes, simple to understand and simple to realise it is pure nonsense.
There is no negative pressure. That means the gas would be applying a force which draws things towards it. i.e. a vacuum that sucks.
This does not happen in reality.
Instead, the pressure is always positive.
Again, stop making up meanings for words which already have them.
Start using the words and meanings which society has agreed upon.
The pressure is positive, even while the pressure is decreasing. In that case the RATE is negative while the VALUE is positive.

Nope. If air is leaving then there cannot be an opposite push on a closed end inside a bottle/rocket.



Quote from: Themightykabool
So how do you reconcile poont a with b and claim no contradiction?
Just as I explain.

1.
How would a stack of compressing sponge (gets smaller) lift up a rocket?

If you had a stack of sponges, pushed down on them with you hand to compress them, are you gaining height or losing height?


2.
Ok
Lets stack this up:
Outside air-water-compresssd pressurizsd air in tube-tube.

Please highlight and tell us what the tube is in contact with?

Plus, as the rocket is ejecting water the rocket immediately starts to move.
Its not the water first ejected fully, then rocket starts to move.


3.
If there is no pressure on the rocket, whats pushing it up?!!
And dont give bs "press on gas on gas."
Because there is no direct contact between that useless description and the contact with the bottom of rhe rocket.
Tell us or show us what exactly is pushing the bottom, what is in direct contact with the bottom of the rocket, to cause it to go up.



4.
And see we have 3 contradicting points.
Nothing is reconciled.

And regardless of your redefinition of pos vs neg, these points still stand that you have a contradiction in theory.

1. How would a stack of compressing sponge (gets smaller) lift up a rocket?
The same way compressing into the below stack by helicopter blades creates a higher pressure below than above for the helicopter to sit on.
It like a vertical mole ploughing through the atmosphere, like a rocket would. Move the air out the way and push it behind you and use that as your leverage...and so on.
Same as swimming.

I'm simply showing you why by using analogies to help explain.


Quote from: Themightykabool
If you had a stack of sponges, pushed down on them with you hand to compress them, are you gaining height or losing height?
That's just the key issue.
At first you would be compressing them with your hand and so, your hand would naturally move down.
However, what you're not understanding here is, your hand would be the fuel from the rocket expanding by the burn and compressing the atmosphere under it.
Soon enough that compression from that burn cannot be compressed anymore by that burn and now it is being compressed itself by the expansion of the reaction of the super compressed stack below.

Or to put this in simple terms.
If you pushed down hard on the lever of a bicycle pump you'll feel a massive resistance to that push as you compress the air. You feel the bounce back against you.
That's all a rocket is doing and anything else, because that's what has to happen for anything to move. It just has slight variations in how it's achieved, but essentially exactly the same thing.


Quote from: Themightykabool
Plus, as the rocket is ejecting water the rocket immediately starts to move.

It is. It's the sheer expansion of the air behind that water that pushes the already dense water into the direct stack below it, which creates an immediate super compression of that stack, which reacts by decompressing against the water to push it back up, which is why you see the water start to spread out.
Once it's spread out, it's done it's job and this would be what you class as real exhaust, because that water has did its job.

3.
If there is no pressure on the rocket, whats pushing it up?!!
And dont give bs "press on gas on gas."
Because there is no direct contact between that useless description and the contact with the bottom of rhe rocket.
It is gas on gas. It's a gas fight.
It's a compressed gas expanding into a compressed gas to compress it further and that gas decompressing to resist that and push back.
It becomes exactly that, a gas on gas fight that the rocket simply sits atop of.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Tell us or show us what exactly is pushing the bottom, what is in direct contact with the bottom of the rocket, to cause it to go up.
It's like you jumping from a height onto a trampoline. Your dense mass will compress that trampoline down in that centre until your dense mass cannot thrust against it with any more force. the trampoline now reacts to that and pushes back to regain equilibrium.
However, if people keeps on jumping on top of you and someone on top of them in quick succession then they all collectively compress that trampoline down so much so that it collapses.
However, if the person on person  push was rapid enough, it wouldn't matter because all the jumpers would still rise higher whilst the original jumpers would be laid on the floor stacking up to fill the hole they originally made.

Really think about what I'm saying.

If the sponges expanded the book would fall.
If they were compressed more the book would then rise.
This makes no sense at all.
If the sponges compress, that means their volume is reduced.
How does that magically make the book get higher?
That should make it get lower.
How does a shrinking support make something go higher?
If the sponges compress it means something is compressing them into a larger resistance due to pushing into them, which is exactly what you say....down. However, this is just the initial start of why it all works, as I explained above to your mate.




Quote from: JackBlack
And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?
Simple experiments that show how a stack works and why expansion/contraction/vibrations work to create what we see happening.

There is no evidence for rockets working in a vacuum and no evidence that rockets work the way they tell us.

The only evidence given is Newtons third law, as if it answers anything.

The only way supposed evidence for space rockets is valid is due to forced mainstream acceptance of it by those who basically throw out this nonsense.

You can say anything you want as your gauge drops but the fact is the gauge pointer is decreasing, meaning there is no positive pressure on it.

I'll make this simple.
If you push on someone against a spring  and they move back as you keep pushing you can be said to be applying positive continuous building of pressure.
If you push on someone who directly pushes back until you both can't push into each other anymore you can say both pushes are equally under that pressure which is a positive pressure.

However, if the person pushing against the person on the spring, decides to lessen his push, then the person on the spring starts to push back against that person, whos is no longer applying positive pressure, only a resistance to person now being pushed into him by the spring.

It does answer but you simply don't see it as an answer.

If you see someone rising up a vertical tube you can say there's positive pressure under that person.
If, at the top of that tube there was a spring loaded piston that pushed a gauge needle with readings that say a pressure push of 100 and it's held, then you call that a positive pressure of 100.

If you open the valve at the bottom and allow pressure out, the persons simple falls with the pressure and the piston simply rests upon the person and falls with him. This reading will have no positive push on it. It will read a negative drop....until you shut that valve....and then you can say it's now a positive pressure reading because it's set and now the person is back to pushing against the piston due to the pressure on him staying stable.

Yet again, that doesn't answer the specific question using your nomenclature: How does the no definitive reading(your term) always match exactly the definitive reading when the valve is closed? How is the pressure reading going down 'not definitive'? And how does it become definitive and match exactly the not definitive reading when the valve is closed?

Because the open valve changes the set up of the gas molecular push on push in equal terms, meaning a shut valve creates the same compression at the valve as it does at the gauge end.

Once you open the valve you change the set up to a chain reaction expansion set up, in a flow to and out of that valve opening.
In doing so you omit the positive pressure upon the gauge side, because it's all following that chain reaction towards the opening.

All that the gauge reads in a fall by simply following that same pattern out by its own spring decompression.
There is no positive reading, only a falling negative needle reading nothing definitive.in terms of a set pressure and certainly not a positive pressure to that gauge.
However, the positive pressure is now flowing to and through the valve opening.

If you were to shut that valve off then all you do is arrest that flow and change it to equalisation or pressure on the valve and back onto the gauge and stopping that gauge pointer with positive pressure applied and set which will read how much compression is left inside the container.

You feel it on both fingers.
However, if you keep one finger still whilst releasing the spring with the other you feel less pressure on the other finger with every movement of the other finger.

The finger in this case still has to be a barrier for the spring but there is no positive push into that barrier. It's now simply following the other finger that has allowed it to release.

This is the same with the gauge.
And because the gauge needle drops so does the pressure on it, which; if you think about that in terms of your rocket, it means the rocket gas is doing absolutely nothing inside to push that rocket up.

This all nails it.

Not only do rockets not work in extreme low pressures but they do not work as we are told, even in atmosphere.
However we are duped into it for obvious reasons, because for the truth to be known would be to understand the truth about the space they  tell and sell us, which is, it isn't what we're led to believe they say it is and space rockets are merely gimmicks passed off as working reality aided by mass media hyping up of it.

The same way compressing into the below stack by helicopter blades
So it can't.
Good job showing you don't understand how helicopters work either, and completely avoiding the issue yet again.

It was a rather simple question.
You have a book sitting on a pile of air. You then claim that compressing the air makes the book go higher.
But now you are appealing to a completely different situation where you are putting more air in, which would make the air compressed, which then allows the air to decompress and push the book upwards.
But that is still decompression pushing the book up, and it is still the gas pushing the book up.

Move the air out the way and push it behind you and use that as your leverage...and so on.
So the rocket, moving the air inside it and pushing it behind it to use as leverage means it can move, including through a vacuum.
So rockets do work in a vacuum.

It's a compressed gas expanding into a compressed gas to compress it further and that gas decompressing to resist that and push back.
Why doesn't the initial decompression push the rocket up?
But again, in your nonsense, how does the push get transferred to the rocket?

According to you, the gas leaves the rocket and is completely unable to push up on the rocket.
Then this gas which has already left the rocket, interacts with the air below, and somehow magically this pushes the rocket up.

It's like you jumping from a height onto a trampoline.
No, it is nothing like it.
As you jump on a trampoline, the trampoline stretches and applies a force upwards to you. This initially slows you down and then makes  you move upwards.
The force on you comes from the trampoline in contact with you.
But in order for this to match your nonsense, you need to claim that that can't push you up, and instead by magic, something not in contact with you at all pushes you up.

Appealing to other situations easily explained by actual physics, but inexplicable by your nonsense doesn't help you.

Stop telling people to think and start thinking yourself.

If the sponges compress it means something is compressing them into a larger resistance due to pushing into them
Like a book sitting on top compressing it as it falls?
So the book goes down from the air compressing.

Perhaps I should have addressed the other side first.
How does it decompressing, where the gas gets bigger, make the book go down?
As above, with your nonsense, you appeal to the decompression pushing the book up.
So what you are really saying, is some crap happens before hand, then after that, the air decompresses, pushing the book up as it expands.

Quote from: JackBlack
And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?
Simple experiments that show how a stack works and why expansion/contraction/vibrations work to create what we see happening.
And this is just more pathetic deflection.
Notice how you didn't provide any actual evidence and instead just appealed to it existing?

There is no evidence
You ignoring the evidence doesn't just magically make it go away.
You dismissing it as fake or CGI, just because it shows you are wrong doesn't magically make it go away.

There is plenty.
This includes all the documentation on rockets working in space.
It includes the very satellites in orbit around Earth, put there by rockets working in space which take pictures of Earth and send them back, or provide services such as satellite TV and GPS, which can't be faked by land based systems unless you pretty much cover the entire Earth in transmitters and even then you still have massive issues.
It includes all the experiments which shows Newton's laws of motion in operation.
This includes the thought experiments which show the insanity of rejecting Newton's laws of motion, where forces are magically generated from nothing, where for example, if you have some object and you push it from behind, cutting the object in half will magically double the acceleration while keeping the force applied constant, which makes no sense at all.
It includes all the examples provided to you in this thread, showing that gas must push outwards in all directions all the time. Things you have been completely incapable of rationally responding to to provide an alternative explanation other than by trying to completely redefine words and pretending that because a rate is negative the value must be as well.
And it includes the very simple questions you continue to avoid which among other things shows a very simple fact, either rockets do work in a vacuum, or gas can magically be held inside a tube exposed to a vacuum, without leaking out.

If you want to honestly say there is no evidence, then you need to deal with all that. You need to be able to explain how the gauge reads a value, rather than rapidly returning to 0, without any force being applied to it, noting that the gas "resisting" is still applying a force.

You also need to be able to answer the very simple questions asked of you, which you have ignored countless times, or just provided pathetic non-answers.

Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

If you wish to claim you have evidence for your fantasy, you need to actually provide the evidence.
Provide some situation which your fantasy can explain (without contradicting itself) which real physics can't.

If you push on someone against a spring  and they move back as you keep pushing you can be said to be applying positive continuous building of pressure.
And there you go conflating rate and value yet again.
STOP TALKING ABOUT THE RATE!
START TALKING ABOUT THE VALUE!
Do you understand the difference?

Pressure is a VALUE!! Not a rate.
Yes, you can be said to apply a continuous building of pressure, but that is not what we are asking.
Instead we are asking about the ACTUAL PRESSURE!!! Do you understand that?

If you lessen the amount you are pushing, YOU ARE STILL PUSHING!!!
Do you understand that?

You even admitted that yourself.
Reducing the amount you are pushing doesn't mean you are no longer pushing.
Likewise, the pressure of the gas reducing doesn't mean it is no longer pushing.

If you resist the motion applying a force to slow it down, YOU ARE STILL PUSHING!!!
Do you understand that?

If you don't push, then the person or object moves as if you were not there.
Do you understand that?

What point are you trying to make?
It is quite clear, in order for the pressure gauge to not have its spring expand fully and return to the 0 point (and thus read 0), it needs to have a force acting upon it.
i.e. the gas is still acting on the gauge, unless the gauge reads 0.

This is the same with the gauge.
And because the gauge needle drops so does the pressure on it
This all nails it.
You are right that this nails it, but not in the way you think.
As the needle drops, the pressure drops. Notice that it doesn't magically become negative and stop pushing.
It is still pushing, it just drops.
So the gas, even while exiting the container still applies a force to the gauge.
The same happens with the rocket, with the gas inside pushing on the rocket, making it move.
i.e. rockets do work in a vacuum.


Again, if you wish to claim otherwise, and claims rocket can't work in a vacuum you need to deal with these very simple questions:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

For the first one, unless you can provide some magical entity there are only 2 options, either rockets work in a vacuum, or gas can remained trapped in a tube which is open to vacuum.

It was a rather simple question.
You have a book sitting on a pile of air. You then claim that compressing the air makes the book go higher.
But now you are appealing to a completely different situation where you are putting more air in, which would make the air compressed, which then allows the air to decompress and push the book upwards.
But that is still decompression pushing the book up, and it is still the gas pushing the book up.

You get confused because you're working with a barrier up to explanations and will not connect the dots.

Again, stop with the pathetic insults.
I'm not confused in the slightest.
I am just pointing out how nonsensical your claims are.
Even if your example, the air decompressing is what pushed the book upwards.
But according to your fantasy, that is impossible.

All you can do is repeatedly contradict yourself and ignore the massive problems with your fantasy.

Until you can actually address the issues raised, you have nothing.

First of all you are confused because you simply just don't get it. You scream that you do but I can clearly see you don't.
The reason why you don't is because you are firmly stuck to the theory handed to you and that alone stops you delving a bit further to fully understand from my part.

You spend far too much time picking out snippets of quote that mean nothing and write an essay on it.
Just deal with one thing at a time and if you are going to separate a quote, make sure you separate it properly so you deal with that specific thing and not something where you take the "I don't" out of one write up and use that as some kind of argument for yourself.

That's the reason why I overlook most of what you type and I'll continue to do it until you calm down and get rational.

And you need to cut out with the cry about insults. You're one of the worst for it.

Seriously, deal with specifics.

Yet again, that doesn't answer the specific question using your nomenclature: How does the no definitive reading(your term) always match exactly the definitive reading when the valve is closed? How is the pressure reading going down 'not definitive'? And how does it become definitive and match exactly the not definitive reading when the valve is closed?

Because the open valve changes the set up of the gas molecular push on push in equal terms, meaning a shut valve creates the same compression at the valve as it does at the gauge end.

Once you open the valve you change the set up to a chain reaction expansion set up, in a flow to and out of that valve opening.
In doing so you omit the positive pressure upon the gauge side, because it's all following that chain reaction towards the opening.

All that the gauge reads in a fall by simply following that same pattern out by its own spring decompression.
There is no positive reading, only a falling negative needle reading nothing definitive.in terms of a set pressure and certainly not a positive pressure to that gauge.

Again, still not answering the question. How is the falling pressure reading that you call "negative needle reading nothing definitive" always match the definitive pressure reading when the valve is closed? How coincidental is a non-definitive reading exactly the same as the definitive reading every time, without fail? How can that be?

It seems your non-definitive reading is quite definitive as it always matches, 1-to-1. Always.

So it has nothing to do with being "set", right - Even though you said so. Going up isn't "set", right? "Set" would be stationary, unmoving, neither up nor down. So already your own terminology presents a problem.

So herein lies the problem you have yet to address:

- How is a declining pressure gauge reading not 'set' when an increasing reading is 'set'?
- Set means neither up nor down so why are you applying it to up and not down?
- You define "non-definitive reading" as not 'set' or decreasing yet a not 'set' increasing reading is 'definitive'?

First of all you are confused because you simply just don't get it.
Again, stop with the pathetic insults.
I have clearly demonstrated that I am not confused and that I do get it.
Realising that your claims repeatedly contradicts themselves doesn't mean I am confused or don't get it.
Realising you are wrong doesn't mean I am confused or don't get it.

It is quite clear why you overlook most of what I write, because I clearly show you are completely wrong and you have no escape from it other than insults and ignoring it.

The fact that you need to repeatedly resort to these pathetic insults and avoid all the issues that are being raised shows that I almost certainly do get it and that I can easily show that your model is nonsense.

Just deal with one thing at a time
Again, firstly, I have tried this, and as soon as it gets to a contradiction you just run away or claim it is no longer dealing with 1 thing.
If you need to focus entirely upon 1 thing in order to be able to provide a separate, contradictory explanation for each thing, then your model is garbage.
You also completely ignore this and try to appeal to analogy after analogy.

If you really want to discuss one thing at time, then stop all the nonsense and deal with rockets in space. Don't discuss anything else at all until it is done.
Don't appeal to analogies, don't appeal to anything else, just discuss rockets in space.

Either admit rockets work in space, or that gas will magically be held inside an open container exposed to the vacuum, or explain what there is for the gas to push off to leave the rocket which doesn't have an equivalent for the rocket itself.
Remember, if you say it is pushing off the rocket, that means it is pushing the rocket and rockets work in space; if you say it is pushing of the gas, that means the rocket can as well and thus rockets work in space; and if you say itself, that means the rocket can push off itself and thus rockets work in space.

You really only have 2 options here, either rockets work in space, or you have gas magically trapped inside a tube exposed to a vacuum.

Once again, you have completely ignored all the problems raised regarding your model and just dedicated a post to insulting me.

If you really had a working model you would have answered my questions by now.
And I will continue to repeat until you answer them or admit you are wrong.

Again, until you can answer them, YOU HAVE NOTHING!
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

None of them are set and I've never said they were.
So is this another contradiction of yours?
Why did you remove the quote tower from this, while leaving it for so much before?

Here is the key part to remind you:
How is the gauge going down a non-definitive reading?
Because it's not set.

The only way for this to make sense is if you have the "definitive reading" you repeatedly appeal to be "set".
One of the main objections you have for the pressure gauge reading going down is because you claim it isn't definitive, but you are perfectly fine with it when it is going up.

So why did you repeatedly appeal to the lowering pressure not being definitive when that doesn't matter?
In order for you to be consistent you would need to reject the pressure whenever it is changing, not just lowering.
But it is much harder to come up with some nonsense excuse while the pressure is rising.

Stop confusing yourself or deliberately trying to confuse the issue. All you'll do is frustrate yourself, not me.

I mention set pressure when the pressure is contained = valve shut to trap it. This pressure shows as a set reading on the gauge. A definitive reading

Quote from: JackBlack

It's not definitive going up or down until it stops going up or down. It's like trying to say you have a definitive clock time but you never do, unless the clock stops.

Quote from: JackBlack

It does matter in terms of it not being definitive or set. It matters because it shows the gauge is losing positive pressure against the piston and spring and is now acting as a resistance to that piston and spring decompressing with the gas.

Quote from: JackBlack
In order for you to be consistent you would need to reject the pressure whenever it is changing, not just lowering.
It's not about rejecting it, it's simply about showing what the gauge is doing and why.

Quote from: JackBlack
But it is much harder to come up with some nonsense excuse while the pressure is rising.
Not at all. It's pretty simple.
Pressure rising on that gauge shows a needle moving positively by count of numbers or words to a positive movement due to consistent compression of the gas against it....but it is not a definitive pressure until it stops and is set on a pressure reading without further added or lowered pressure bu compression or decompression..
Allowing decompression means opening a valve or breaching the container which will show the gauge pointer start moving towards negative but will not be a definitive pressure reading whilst it's consistently allowed to be decompressed, which the needle shows on a consistent movement to that negative.
Shut down the valve at any point and you get a set reading of pressure inside the container because the gauge piston and spring cannot follow a decompression because the resistant gas that was expanding towards the opening against the gas in front and in front and in front...etc....of that, becomes a pile up. Like a motorway pile up that the gauge piston now becomes the last thing to hit and stops dead with an immediate barrier placed behind it as a resistance to it's decompressive push.

Because you keep putting up barriers against yourselves and refuse to see it from my side.
I'll answer below and use them as your reference...although they're pretty simple to understand.

Quote from: Stash
What do these mean and under what circumstances are they applicable:

- Set
In terms of everything. It means stable or still. No discernable movement.
In terms of what we're arguing about the gauge on a gas container it means gas inside is contained. Nothing added and nothing taken away. It reads as a set number or word reading on the gauge.

Quote from: Stash
- Non-definitive reading
A reading that consistently changes. One you cannot call out as a set number because that number changes before you could even write the number you think you see, on paper or plug into a calculator, etc.
Basically if you were in a plane heading towards the ground and your tower was asking you what specific altitude you're at, you would reply with " I'm not at any specific altitude, because the reading keeps changing."

Nothing complicated about what I'm saying.


Quote from: Stash
- Definitive reading
This simply goes back to set reading. A definitive reading means you can read whatever the gauge says and mark it down as a definitive reading.
As in....a sealed container with gauge reading a set pressure. That's your definitive reading.


Quote from: Stash
- Negative pressure
Negative pressure is simple a pressure that cannot achieve what it was once doing.
For instance, if the container is sealed and the pressure inside the container shows a set reading by pushing on the piston with a set compressive force to hold that piston but is then allowed to decompress away from it (valve opening) then the pressure it once exerted is now unable to do so with that same force and so it becomes a negative pressure.

Quote from: Stash
- Positive pressure
This works both ways.
Either contained pressure that exerts a set gauge reading or added pressure to advance that gauge reading. That's both positive pressure readings.


Anything else you need to understand?
It's pretty simple, right?

Quote from: Themightykabool

It can't.
It's knowing why, which is the key to all of this space rocket nonsense.
Quote from: Themightykabool

No such thing as suck. It's all push on push or push on resistance to that push.
Quote from: Themightykabool

It doesn't. Energy/force dictates that.
Quote from: Themightykabool

Forget this sentient stuff, it only confuses you more.
 
Quote from: Themightykabool
What actual function does the water in a water rocket play because you gobblygook nonsense does describe anytjing
A massive function. It is the needed force to act with compressed gas trapped behind it that allows that dense mass to be super thrusted back down to the ground, via the super compressive push through the atmospheric stack below its ejection from the nozzle.
This stack then becomes delved like a trampoline due to the massive compression the water and above compressed air has placed upon that.
It now reacts with that same force, except the rocket is now less dense due to water ejection which enables that atmosphere to push back or expand back by that decompression becoming less decompressed to take it's place back in that stack at that point.
But by this time the rocket has expelled more water which is now being taken care of in the stack above and so on and so on until the water is expelled and only compressed air left inside, which still compresses against the stack but with much much less force, because it is part of the same make up and not dense like the water.....which has had to be forced into the bottle to start with, which means it is already a potential energy without the added compressed air.

Quote from: Themightykabool

I could provide a diagram but I have this feeling it will be rejected and the usual stories of " but scepti we can't see how that works." And all the rest of it, because naturally you people have the notion that your space rocket does not need atmosphere, so you're obviously dead set against bothering to understand why it can't work in so called space and cannot work how we are told, today.

Stop confusing yourself
Stop insulting me and start trying to actually deal with the issues raised.
Pointing out your contradictions isn't confusing anything, it is showing that you are wrong.

If you need to repeatedly insult me it shows you cannot explain anything.

I mention set pressure when the pressure is contained = valve shut to trap it. This pressure shows as a set reading on the gauge. A definitive reading
Notice how this doesn't address what I said at all?
You appealed to the lack of a definitive pressure to dismiss the reality of the pressure acting on the gauge when the pressure was lowering.
But you have now clearly shown that that isn't the issue at all because you are also saying that isn't the case when the pressure is increasing.

This shows that you discussing it being definiitive or not is nothing more than a pathetic distraction which has nothing at all to do with the issue at hand.

It's not definitive going up or down until it stops going up or down. It's like trying to say you have a definitive clock time but you never do, unless the clock stops.
Definitive doesn't mean constant.
You can have a definitive value for a given time.
If you did want to pretend that it must be constant then guess what? You will NEVER have a definitive reading as the pressure can always change in the future, such as if the tank is opened or the temperature changes.

It does matter in terms of it not being definitive or set
If that was the case then the same would apply for it going up.

It matters because it shows the gauge is losing positive pressure against the piston and spring and is now acting as a resistance to that piston and spring decompressing with the gas.
Again, "losing positive pressure" doesn't mean it is no longer applying pressure. All it means is that that pressure is decreasing.

Shut down the valve at any point and you get a set reading of pressure inside the container because the gauge piston and spring cannot follow a decompression because the resistant gas
The same applies all the time while there is any pressure in it.
The gauge can't move to 0 because of that "resistant gas" applying a pressure to it.

Basically if you were in a plane heading towards the ground and your tower was asking you what specific altitude you're at, you would reply with " I'm not at any specific altitude, because the reading keeps changing."
No, you would reply with your current altitude and probably also state that you are descending unless that was already conveyed to them.

Just because it keeps changing doesn't mean you don't have one.

Negative pressure is simple a pressure that cannot achieve what it was once doing.
i.e. a pressure that is still very real and still pushing outwards in all directions, but less than what it was before.
So if you fill up a gas tank, and then release some of the pressure by opening and then closing the valve it now has a "negative pressure" because the pressure is less than what it was before.

Why not use English and have "negative pressure" mean a pressure that is less than 0; and "positive pressure" mean a pressure that is greater than 0?
I know, I know, it makes it so much harder for you to prop up your nonsense, because that would mean admitting in plain and simple English that the tank still has pressure in it acting on the gauge even when it is leaking.

How can something be lifted if there is no direct contact of force below it?
It can't.
It's knowing why, which is the key to all of this space rocket nonsense.
Yes, it is the key to all of your nonsense regarding rockets.
The fact that the rocket can't be lifted by something removed from it (i.e. not touching) shows that the gas touching is pushing it up, directly contradicting your claims.
If this is the case, then there is no reason for the same to not happen in space.

Quote from: Themightykabool
How can a gas choose to go left or right?
It doesn't. Energy/force dictates that.
That's right.
It exerts a force outwards in all directions.
In the example before, in one direction it has a low pressure gas, in the other it has a high pressure gas or a rigid container. These apply a different force to it.

Quote from: Themightykabool
- is it sentient?
Forget this sentient stuff, it only confuses you more.
No, it exposes the insanity of your claims.
You want to claim your gas magically stops pushing outwards in all directions and instead just marches along in one direction.
If you want us to drop this clearly showing your gas is sentient, then admit that gas pushes outwards in all directions at all times.

This stack then becomes delved like a trampoline due to the massive compression the water and above compressed air has placed upon that.
It now reacts with that same force, except the rocket is now less dense due to water ejection which enables that atmosphere to push back or expand back by that decompression becoming less decompressed to take it's place back in that stack at that point.
If all of this nonsense was true, then the water would be thrown upwards by the magic stack below and movement would be basically impossible.

I could provide a diagram but I have this feeling it will be rejected and the usual stories of " but scepti we can't see how that works."
You mean it will be refuted with the usual pointing out of just what is wrong with it?


And of course, you yet again avoided the very simple questions which show your model to be pure nonsense. Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

The first one is the real killer.
In order for any sane person to take your claims regarding rockets in a vacuum seriously, you really need an answer to it.
But the problem is you have 2 options, either say there is nothing, which means the gas remains trapped inside the tube, or admit there is something and thus admit that the rocket can work in a vacuum.

It's not definitive going up or down until it stops going up or down. It's like trying to say you have a definitive clock time but you never do, unless the clock stops.

Sweet Jesus, you've invented yet another term to defend this stuff; "definitive clock time"? Please, just for shits and giggles, can you give us five random examples of "definitive clock time"? I'll start you off...

"The pub doesn't close until definitive clock time when Mickey, the tender, takes a hammer from behind the bar and smashes everyones watches (and their wrists) - All stopped, definitive clock time"
I simply gave you a thought process.

We can play with our clocks all day long  ;D but it's just a simple thought process.

A moving clock hand shows no definitive number.
A stopped clock would.

Incorrect. A stopped clock would only be definitive two times a day. As time doesn't stand still. So a stopped clock would actually be less definitive than a moving clock.

So, your statement is wrong. As such, a moving clock hand shows a definitive, accurate number far more than a stopped clock.

Now, why doesn't a pressure gauge show a definitive number when it's moving up or down? Why only when it's stopped? Even though when it's stopped it shows the same exact number reading it was showing when it was moving up or down? How is that possible? If the definitive number is exactly the same as the up or down number, then they both must be definitive. No?

The gas coming out of the rocket would do absolutely nothing unless it hits a barrier.
The atmospheric stack or even water will provide the resistive force of reaction to that action by being super compressed from it's original compression but the super expansion of the compressed gas being allowed to escape from the rocket and burned or pushed in one direction, which is to the exit only.

Quote from: JackBlack
This stack then becomes delved like a trampoline due to the massive compression the water and above compressed air has placed upon that.
It now reacts with that same force, except the rocket is now less dense due to water ejection which enables that atmosphere to push back or expand back by that decompression becoming less decompressed to take it's place back in that stack at that point.
If all of this nonsense was true, then the water would be thrown upwards by the magic stack below and movement would be basically impossible.

And indeed, it is.
It's this decompression from that super compression of the stack directly under that thrust that creates the equal reaction, which means the delve in the stack equalises, which pushes that water back.
However, all this does it pushes the water so far and then the water collapses and is sprayed outwards by that return pressure because the thrust of it by this time is much less as the rocket is continually pushed back on by the stack above and above that as the rocket keeps ejecting the water.


Think of the rocket as an upside down fountain.

Quote from: Themightykabool
What actual function does the water in a water rocket play because you gobblygook nonsense does describe anytjing
A massive function. It is the needed force to act with compressed gas trapped behind it that allows that dense mass to be super thrusted back down to the ground, via the super compressive push through the atmospheric stack below its ejection from the nozzle.
This stack then becomes delved like a trampoline due to the massive compression the water and above compressed air has placed upon that.
It now reacts with that same force, except the rocket is now less dense due to water ejection which enables that atmosphere to push back or expand back by that decompression becoming less decompressed to take it's place back in that stack at that point.
But by this time the rocket has expelled more water which is now being taken care of in the stack above and so on and so on until the water is expelled and only compressed air left inside, which still compresses against the stack but with much much less force, because it is part of the same make up and not dense like the water.....which has had to be forced into the bottle to start with, which means it is already a potential energy without the added compressed air.

The gas is pushing from the exit hole into resistant stacked gas but cannot be pushed back on until that stacked gas is compressed to react with the same pressure pushed into it.
Only at this point does the rocket rest upon it but it consistently rests upon the stack as the gas in each stack decompresses from the super compression the thrust placed it under.
The rocket merely sits on that as we see it rise for however long it can keep thrusting into the ever filling stack.

It's not pushed up by exiting gas until that exiting gas hits another gas, which would be the atmosphere in this case.
Only then can a equal and opposite reaction to that exiting action can take place.

If there's nothing to resist the existing gas then the exiting gas simply expands out into no resistance, meaning your rocket stays put.

The gas coming out of the rocket would do absolutely nothing unless it hits a barrier.
By the time it hits any barrier is disconnected from the rocket and thus unable to do anything.
What matters is what happens BEFORE it leaves the rocket.
At this time it is still exerting pressure outwards in all directions, pushing the rocket away.


Quote from: JackBlack
If all of this nonsense was true, then the water would be thrown upwards by the magic stack below and movement would be basically impossible.
And indeed, it is.
No, it isn't true, at all.
The water only goes back up when it hits the ground.
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Launchbottle.jpg)
And movement is quite possible.
So your explanation is clearly pure nonsense.

And yet again, you ignore the vast majority of what I say, where I point out so many problems with your claims.
Why do you keep doing this?
Is it because you have no rational come back at all and need to dismiss everything because you know it shows you are wrong?

You clearly aren't doing it to try and discuss only one thing, because if you were you would be discussing rockets in a vacuum and how you are reduced either admitting rockets work in a vacuum or saying gas will remain trapped in an open tube.

Again, definitive doesn't mean unchanging or unable to be changed.
If you wanted to go down that path of insanity then nothing would ever be definitive as it can always change in the future.

Yep, as soon as you contain the pressure by closing the valve your reading (in this case of what you say, is 47 as your set definitive and positive pressure number.
No, by your own definitions that would be a negative pressure.
But that again, your definitions aren't mutually exclusive, so it would be both a positive and a negative pressure.
But again, it is just as definitive as it was before, as someone can come along and open the gauge and make it change.
So in normal English, it is either definitive even when decreasing, or it is never definitive.

Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

The first one is the real killer.
In order for any sane person to take your claims regarding rockets in a vacuum seriously, you really need an answer to it.
But the problem is you have 2 options, either say there is nothing, which means the gas remains trapped inside the tube, or admit there is something and thus admit that the rocket can work in a vacuum.

Every time you avoid these questions you are just showing you have no case and that your model is completely incapable of describing reality.

If there's nothing to resist the existing gas then the exiting gas simply expands out into no resistance, meaning your rocket stays put.

Simple.

The gas coming out of the rocket would do absolutely nothing unless it hits a barrier.
The atmospheric stack or even water will provide the resistive force of reaction to that action by being super compressed from it's original compression but the super expansion of the compressed gas being allowed to escape from the rocket and burned or pushed in one direction, which is to the exit only.

When the exhaust hits the barrier it is too late already.
It left the rocket and doesn't do any work any more.

In the process of exiting it received force that pushed it out (otherwise it wouldn't exit).
That force gave reaction force that caused the rocket movement.

Hitting barrier (or not hitting) happens later, when the rocket is gone farther in own direction and the job is already done.

- Non-definitive reading

A reading that consistently changes. One you cannot call out as a set number because that number changes before you could even write the number you think you see, on paper or plug into a calculator, etc.
Basically if you were in a plane heading towards the ground and your tower was asking you what specific altitude you're at, you would reply with " I'm not at any specific altitude, because the reading keeps changing."

Nothing complicated about what I'm saying.

How do you know the reading changes before you can write it down? Is that your criteria for Non-definitive reading - The speed at which it is changing?

And you really think that's how the world works? That a descending pilot when asked by ATC what altitude they are at, the response would be, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you that because I don't have a definitive set number I can give you, but I'll let you know when I do have one..."?

No, the answer would be, "I'm currently at (reads gauge) 2700 ft and descending to 2000 as requested..."

In this scenario, if the world worked according to your imagination, planes all over the planet would be smashing into one another. Let's just be glad the world doesn't work like you pretend it to.

And in your pressure doesnt exist debate, then there is a pressure, it is positive, it is pushing on the gaige, but it is also moving in a lessening dirsction.
Or else by your stupidass clock example, if you claim pressure is not there, then time is not there and no one would ever know the time.

Because by this logic we call it a contradiction.
I've never said pressure doesn't exist so you'd be much better off making sure you don't make stuff up to suit yourself.


Undefinitive

Not pushing
Falling away

Some of the descriptions youve used.

So is it pushing at the top when the back end is open?
Not positively, no.

Do you know what that means?
It means your rocket does not get pushed up like you think it does from inside and all the work is done at the other end when it hits external atmosphere.

Pay closer attention to what I'm saying.

So nothing can be lifted unless something were pushing it up.
Got it.
But yet you are insistent that if gas is exitig an opening, it is not pushing on the other side.
The gas is pushing from the exit hole into resistant stacked gas but cannot be pushed back on until that stacked gas is compressed to react with the same pressure pushed into it.
Only at this point does the rocket rest upon it but it consistently rests upon the stack as the gas in each stack decompresses from the super compression the thrust placed it under.
The rocket merely sits on that as we see it rise for however long it can keep thrusting into the ever filling stack.



Quote from: Themightykabool
So please explain how If the rocket is pushed up by the exiting gas, the same exiting gas magically dossnt also push on the underside to pressurize the tube (even if said pressure is reducing at a regular rate)?


It's not pushed up by exiting gas until that exiting gas hits another gas, which would be the atmosphere in this case.
Only then can a equal and opposite reaction to that exiting action can take place.

If there's nothing to resist the existing gas then the exiting gas simply expands out into no resistance, meaning your rocket stays put.

And at some point
The stack on the stack on the exhaust on the air coming out, the train of stacked sponges eventually should end at the inside of the tube.
The stack is always at the end of the tube until something from that tube causes the stack to compress at that specific point.
This is the crux of how a rocket works.

At this time it is still exerting pressure outwards in all directions, pushing the rocket away.
Before a rocket lifts off its nozzle sits inside the stack of atmosphere and that part of the stack is inside the nozzle at the closed valve.
Once that rocket opens the valves to expel gas and then ignite it, it starts to push that stack down into the next and the next and the next....compressing it from those points by that direct nozzle aim from its nozzle.

Work is only done when the compression is so great as to create a massive decompression push back against that rockets massive gas expansion that caused it.

It becomes a gas on gas fight, externally, not internally.

It isn't and this is the big con.
This thrusting burn is the workhorse for the rocket against the atmospheric stack. This is what expands into that stack to super compress it to create that massive atmospheric barrier by massive decompressive push back to regain stack equilibrium....at every portion of thrust.
This is what the rocket sits on.
Gas on gas.

There's nothing waiting to push it out except for it's own molecular self.

Not positively, no.

Do you know what that means?
It means you are avoiding the normal definitions of words to try and escape reality.
By saying "not positively", based upon your prior definitions you are confirming that it is pushing, but not as much as before.

i.e. the gas is pushing the rocket up.

It means your rocket does not get pushed up like you think it does from inside and all the work is done at the other end when it hits external atmosphere.
Pay closer attention to what I'm saying.
Again, when it does that, it is no longer touching the rocket and thus can't push it.
Try paying attention to what others are saying rather than repeatedly preaching.

Work is only done when the compression is so great as to create a massive decompression push back against that rockets massive gas expansion that caused it.
Again, what there is in contact with the rocket to push it up?
The gas-on-gas fight isn't touching the rocket, so it can't push it up.

The decompressing stack will continually push back on the water pushing into it.
Notice how that doesn't address what was said at all?
Yes, gas always pushes outwards in all directions so if something moves into it it will push on it.
But that doesn't make the water move up like you claim, nor does it make motion impossible like your analysis requires.

This shows that your explanation of how a water rocket works is pure nonsense.
It is nothing like a trampoline.

I'm not avoiding any questions.
So what do you call repeatedly ignoring them and pretending they don't exist; refusing to provide any actual answer to them and at best providing a non-answer and then running from the logical consequences of that answer only to bring it up again later?

That sure sounds like avoiding it.
If you weren't avoiding it you would have answered the questions and dealt the logical conclusions of your answers.

What you do is ask the same question time and time again because you don't like the answer.
No, I ask it time and time again because you DON'T ANSWER.
If you actually answered it and dealt with any response to that answer I wouldn't need to repeatedly ask it.
The problem is entirely at your end because these questions show your model is pure nonsense.
You have no rational answer to them which allows your model to work, so you avoid them at all cost, just like you have done here yet again.

Here the questions are again, if you aren't avoiding them you should be able to answer them:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

Again the first one is the real killer.
You have previously provided the non-answers of "the gas" and "itself".
Well if the gas can push against itself that means that objects can push against themselves to move, so the rocket can push against itself and there is no problem with rockets working in a vacuum. But you have previously stated that objects CANNOT push themselves and used that as a key argument for why rockets can't work in a vacuum, so that non-answer directly contradicts your claims and, if taken as true, refutes your own argument.
If it can push against the gas, then the gas is something that can be used as leverage, which means the rocket can use it as leverage and push off it to move so once again rockets work in a vacuum.
And that really is the killer.
In general you have 3 options to explain the motion of the gas.
1 - Itself, which is already dealt with above.
2 - The rocket, which means the gas is pushing on the rocket and thus the rocket will be pushed away by it and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
3 - Something else, which is covered by the gas, where this something else is being used as leverage and thus the rocket can use it as well.
Any option you pick will mean the rocket works in a vacuum.

The only way out, for you to say rockets don't work in a vacuum is to claim that the gas will remain trapped inside an open container exposed to a vacuum.

And that is why you need to repeatedly avoid this question, because you know that answering it will show your claims to be pure nonsense.

If you aren't avoiding it you would easily be able to provide an answer and tell us just what this gas is pushing off and why the equivalent doesn't work for the rocket.

This is what expands into that stack to super compress it to create that massive atmospheric barrier by massive decompressive push back
Again, this makes no sense.
You can't super compress gas by throwing gas at it.
The best you will ever be able to get is the pressure of the original high pressure gas.
And again, the only thing to transfer that force to the rocket, is the original high pressure gas which clearly doesn't move back up to push the rocket up. So your only hope is for the gas to push the rocket up as it decompresses.

Inside the tube all you have is compressed gas.
Yes, compressed gas, pushing on the tube.

I have accounted for them all but you've chose to overlook them.

Water is denser than air.
You out some water in the bottle and then compress air into it wich gets trapped behind the water and is now pushing on that water and also on the sides and upturned bottom.
The air at this point is pushing on all sides, including on top of the water.

Once the lid is popped off or the cork or whatever to create an opening at the bottom. the air above the water in the bottle can expand on top of the water and the following air molecules also start to expand behind and behind them and behind them and so on like a fast to slower to slower expansion in a chain reaction sort of way.

As this is happening the water is being pushed out much much faster than it would be under normal atmospheric conditions inside that bottle.
This allows the water to be pushed harder into the stack below to super compress that stack, quickly, creating a massive resistance to the water and a push back into it, which is why you see the water start to fan out as it's pushed into.

This creates a gas on water resistance and the bottle simply sits on this as it builds because the stack under is continually decompressing as much as it's being compressed by that water.

Just remember that a stack is exactly what it means. A continuity for air stacked on air all the way up and a stack comes into play at every point something is pushed into it to compress into that specific portion to create a delve (if you like) which is merely a massive compression on air that becomes so compressed as to create an equal resistance to the mass pushed into it.


There's nothing inside that rocket pushing upwards to push the inside of it like we are duped into.
It's the actual decompression of the gas on gas not on the structure.
All the structure is doing at the point of opening is to simple be a container for flow, not for pressure against the actual bottle for internal push.

Compressed air?
Resting on the compressed stack below it which is more dense than the stack above it because of that downward compression into it.

Your rocket does not work as you've been told.

It's the actual decompression of the gas on gas not on the structure.

You mean rocket squeezes some gas out and then the next portion of gas pushes off the first portion.
That gas has no mass and you can't get pushed back in resistance while pushing it?

What about force that squeezes both of these portions out of the combustion chamber and the nozzle?
That force doesn't get any reaction?
Or there's no such force and the gas decides on its own to get out? :)

Incorrect.
Gas has mass.
While that gas is still the rocket it is accelerated from zero velocity to thousands of metres per second.
A force is required to accelerate any mass and that force is the rocket's thrust and the outside pressure has very little effect on it.

I've always been confused about this bit. The water rocket pushes really hard. How does an air stack below it "know" to compress? A hard press of water, denser than air, all of a sudden makes the less dense air rally a group to coalesce and provide a platform for the water to push off of?

How would the air know how to do that? And how could it do that?

There's nothing inside that rocket pushing upwards to push the inside of it like we are duped into.
You mean as can actually explain it?

Again, if it is just sitting on it, how does the force get transferred?
And again, what is the purpose of the water?
Why wouldn't air work as well?
If you are appealing to the density of it to be more penetrating, then the less dense the air is the better it should be, i.e. a rocket should work best in a vacuum.

What is touching physically to a helicopter to keep it hovering?
Helicopters operate on vastly different principles.
They have a rotary wing, not a rocket engine.

And it is the air directly below the wing, which according to you shouldn't be pushing up on it at all and instead should just decompress.

Resting on the compressed stack below it which is more dense than the stack above it because of that downward compression into it.
Which would make it impossible for it to move up.
You can't force yourself up by pushing down on air. Try it yourself.

Your rocket does not work as you've been told.
And why should we believe that as you have been completely unable to provide a viable alternative or show any problem with how they actually work as mainstream science explains.

Again, until you can answer the very simple questions you have been repeatedly avoiding then you have nothing! You have absolutely no justification for your claims that rockets cannot work in a vacuum. The only way to even come close to backing that up is if you first claim that gas will magically remain trapped inside a tube which is open to vacuum.

Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

Again the first one is the real killer.
You have previously provided the non-answers of "the gas" and "itself".
Well if the gas can push against itself that means that objects can push against themselves to move, so the rocket can push against itself and there is no problem with rockets working in a vacuum. But you have previously stated that objects CANNOT push themselves and used that as a key argument for why rockets can't work in a vacuum, so that non-answer directly contradicts your claims and, if taken as true, refutes your own argument.
If it can push against the gas, then the gas is something that can be used as leverage, which means the rocket can use it as leverage and push off it to move so once again rockets work in a vacuum.
And that really is the killer.
In general you have 3 options to explain the motion of the gas.
1 - Itself, which is already dealt with above.
2 - The rocket, which means the gas is pushing on the rocket and thus the rocket will be pushed away by it and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
3 - Something else, which is covered by the gas, where this something else is being used as leverage and thus the rocket can use it as well.
Any option you pick will mean the rocket works in a vacuum.

The only way out, for you to say rockets don't work in a vacuum is to claim that the gas will remain trapped inside an open container exposed to a vacuum.

It's the actual decompression of the gas on gas not on the structure.

You mean rocket squeezes some gas out and then the next portion of gas pushes off the first portion.
That gas has no mass and you can't get pushed back in resistance while pushing it?
The rocket doesn't squeeze anything out.

Quote from: Macarios
What about force that squeezes both of these portions out of the combustion chamber and the nozzle?
That force doesn't get any reaction?
Or there's no such force and the gas decides on its own to get out? :)
The gas inside the rocket is allowed to decompress once the valve is opened. That decompression is then further expanded very quickly by combusting it.
It makes the molecules super expand against each other which naturally push aside the atmospheric compression in the stack to create a delve or a warp of that stack due to this super compression of it.
This super compression will always decompress back to its original form in that stack and each stack all the way up.
The rocket merely sits atop this. The rocket doesn't do any work in itself, the gases on gases do it all.

See highlighted statement below.

From what i can decufer:
There is decompressing sponges inside the rocket.
The rocket sits on the external air that is being compressed and loaded up like a trampoline.
When the trampoline of sponges reaches max compression, the rocket is shot upwards.



sorry
to clarify
my example is purely the water rocket as you have yet to account for all the pieces - water, tube air, tube.
thought that would've been clear when "water" was a component in my post.
I have accounted for them all but you've chose to overlook them.

Water is denser than air.
You out some water in the bottle and then compress air into it wich gets trapped behind the water and is now pushing on that water and also on the sides and upturned bottom.
The air at this point is pushing on all sides, including on top of the water.

Once the lid is popped off or the cork or whatever to create an opening at the bottom. the air above the water in the bottle can expand on top of the water and the following air molecules also start to expand behind and behind them and behind them and so on like a fast to slower to slower expansion in a chain reaction sort of way.

As this is happening the water is being pushed out much much faster than it would be under normal atmospheric conditions inside that bottle.
This allows the water to be pushed harder into the stack below to super compress that stack, quickly, creating a massive resistance to the water and a push back into it, which is why you see the water start to fan out as it's pushed into.

This creates a gas on water resistance and the bottle simply sits on this as it builds because the stack under is continually decompressing as much as it's being compressed by that water.

Just remember that a stack is exactly what it means. A continuity for air stacked on air all the way up and a stack comes into play at every point something is pushed into it to compress into that specific portion to create a delve (if you like) which is merely a massive compression on air that becomes so compressed as to create an equal resistance to the mass pushed into it.


There's nothing inside that rocket pushing upwards to push the inside of it like we are duped into.
It's the actual decompression of the gas on gas not on the structure.
All the structure is doing at the point of opening is to simple be a container for flow, not for pressure against the actual bottle for internal push.

Incorrect.
Gas has mass.
Everything has mass.

Quote from: rabinoz
While that gas is still the rocket it is accelerated from zero velocity to thousands of metres per second.
Still?
Not sure what you mean here.

Quote from: rabinoz
A force is required to accelerate any mass and that force is the rocket's thrust and the outside pressure has very little effect on it.
The outside pressure has everything to do with the reaction to the thrust. It's why everything works, not just a rocket.

This allows the water to be pushed harder into the stack below to super compress that stack, quickly, creating a massive resistance to the water and a push back into it, which is why you see the water start to fan out as it's pushed into.

I've always been confused about this bit. The water rocket pushes really hard. How does an air stack below it "know" to compress? A hard press of water, denser than air, all of a sudden makes the less dense air rally a group to coalesce and provide a platform for the water to push off of?

How would the air know how to do that? And how could it do that?
Let's equate this to water.
We will use the surface of water as a sort of analogy to being once piece of the stack.

Ok, if a rocket thrusts it's fuel into that stack it parts the stack. It opens it up....or to give you a visual, it parts the water.
I'm sure you understand this which is easily verified using ant thrust.

Ok, so in this water stack you are creating a bulge in that vicinity of the thrust, because you have created a delve directly under that thrust.

This bulge of this stack pushes back and as it does so it starts to push the water back up from the point of the bottom of the delve, upwards.

Basically it's creating a stack resistance against the thrust.

Now then, all you have to do is picture the atmosphere as the surface of water all the way up, meaning you thrust into one stack and are pushed back against by that delve made into it which pushes back as the thrust is already at the next stack....repeat repeat repeat.

The rocket itself is merely riding on this gas on gas fight, because action creates the equal and opposite reaction externally to ensure the rocket advances into the air, not on the inside.

You mean as can actually explain it?

Again, if it is just sitting on it, how does the force get transferred?
And again, what is the purpose of the water?
Why wouldn't air work as well?
If you are appealing to the density of it to be more penetrating, then the less dense the air is the better it should be, i.e. a rocket should work best in a vacuum.

What is touching physically to a helicopter to keep it hovering?
Helicopters operate on vastly different principles.
They have a rotary wing, not a rocket engine.

And it is the air directly below the wing, which according to you shouldn't be pushing up on it at all and instead should just decompress.

Resting on the compressed stack below it which is more dense than the stack above it because of that downward compression into it.
Which would make it impossible for it to move up.
You can't force yourself up by pushing down on air. Try it yourself.

Your rocket does not work as you've been told.
And why should we believe that as you have been completely unable to provide a viable alternative or show any problem with how they actually work as mainstream science explains.

Again, until you can answer the very simple questions you have been repeatedly avoiding then you have nothing! You have absolutely no justification for your claims that rockets cannot work in a vacuum. The only way to even come close to backing that up is if you first claim that gas will magically remain trapped inside a tube which is open to vacuum.

Again:
What is the gas pushing against to allow it to move (which isn't the rocket and which the rocket can't push against)?
How does the gas magically know to stop pushing outwards in all directions and instead only push towards the opening?
How does the gas move towards the opening if it is pushing towards it, meaning it would be pushed away?

And as a bonus question, just what evidence at all do you have that gas works the way you claim rather than the way mainstream science has shown it does?

The gas exits on its own.
Each molecule or gas decompresses against each molecule in a chain reaction.
As long as there's compression in one container that is more compressed than the environment it can decompress directly into, each molecule will decompress into that.
As this happens the less decompressed gas is now compressed much more due to this chain reaction of decompression from the container.
It creates a massive resistance and push back.

I have to be careful how I answer this because this could set you right back.

You're on the right lines in one area but you must not forget the gas is always thrusting from the rocket as this compression happens.
Now once this compression happens it happens consistently whilst the rocket gas is thrusting.

It's almost like you having a rocket full of water that immediately turns to ice as it exits the rocket and that ice starts to make a splat on the ground but my hands start to scoop it up to make a mound of stop the ice from collapsing.
Now imagine the rocket continually doing this and me continually packing the mound further up.
The rocket sits above this all the time it keeps losing this water to ice to mound build.
It simply sits atop of it.

Now just picture this all happening super fast.

You'll never get it if you cannot marry up the analogy and you can certainly set yourself right back if you refuse to attempt to see it.

You are contradicting yourself.

First you say it exits on its own, and then you say it decompresses against the next molecule in chain.
(Meanwhile that next molecule also decompresses and pushes it out.)

When 1000 liters under the pressure of 1000 PSI pushes 1 liter out, the remaining 999 liters didn't push it out, the liter on the outside went out on it's own "by decompressing against the quantity that's still inside for now".

So the air in the tube  that is expanding/ decompressing and pushing the water out is the same spongs air you claim is not pushing the inside of the rocket tube - so what is in contact between the rocket tube and this foundation of water?

No I'm not contradicting myself. I'm being perfectly straight in what I say. The problem is people like yourself honestly not grasping the full set up. You always seem to take one step forward and one step back. You end up getting nowhere.

Remember this.

All matter is attached, no free space. No such thing as free space that exists, nothing.
Understand this from my side and you'll go a longer way to understanding what I'm saying.

Let me make this clear.
Each molecule is compressed by each molecule and all dependent on applied energy to that group under pressure.
If you then take away the energy that was applied you allow each molecule to expand on their own but each one simply expands into each other because they are all attached. And by mass they create the return force or to put it simply, the reaction to the action in equal terms.

Now to answer your question.
Quote from: Macarios

Yes it did.
The remaining 999 litres did push it out but it did it in a chain reaction of allowed expansion, starting from the gas molecules directly behind the water surface the gas is pushing on.
Because the water has been allowed to become it's own reactionary force by it's own dense mass against the atmosphere trying to resist it, it then has the extra decompression of air behind it which only happens because the valve is opened to allow that decompression.

This molecules decompressing with that water  are followed by the next stack and the next. It's almost like thinking of a spring decompressing widers at the front and gradually getting less and less wide or closer coiling all the way to the top.
A chain reaction which all equates to a gas push by that chain expansion.

It's not positively pushing. I've explained this time and time again, same with the gauge.
The only times the air will positively push is when it is either applied energy to add more pressure to compress or the compression already in the container is sealed and contained.

Open it up and you lose the positive pressure on the container and transfer it all to the open end and everything hit by it or resisting it, it being feeling that positive exiting pressure.

Negative pressure is simple a pressure that cannot achieve what it was once doing.
For instance, if the container is sealed and the pressure inside the container shows a set reading by pushing on the piston with a set compressive force to hold that piston but is then allowed to decompress away from it (valve opening) then the pressure it once exerted is now unable to do so with that same force and so it becomes a negative pressure.

This works both ways.
Either contained pressure that exerts a set gauge reading or added pressure to advance that gauge reading. That's both positive pressure readings.

You have confused me with somebody else.
I was not talking about water.
I was talking about gas in chamber.

1000 liters of gas with 1000 PSI pressure push one of those liters out (by force),
the liter that is exiting is pushing back with reaction force.

I know that you know what is "reaction force".

Remaining 999 liters expand into 1000 liters of a bit less dense gas, with the pressure of 999 PSI.
One of those liters gets pushed out with the 0.1% weaker force.
Is that weaker force still there?
Is the reaction force of the next liter just 0.1% weaker, or doesn't exist at all any more?

The first liter has mass, the second liter also has mass, and as they exit they make stack. :)

I want you to explain what the gas is pushing off for a rocket in a vacuum. I have repeatedly asked you for this and made it clear this is the key issue.
Yet you repeatedly ignore it because you know you can't provide an answer. So stop saying you will happily deal with it when you wont.
Instead of answering it you just try and derail with horribly flawed analogies and trying to change the subject.

If you just want to deal with 1 thing, then deal with this as this what the topic is actually about.

Any option you pick will mean the rocket works in a vacuum.


The rocket doesn't squeeze anything out.
But without the rocket forcing the gas out, there is nothing to do so.
The best you can do to avoid that is have the gas use the rocket as leverage to push the gas closer to the opening out.

The gas inside the rocket is allowed to decompress once the valve is opened.
You keep saying that but avoid the key part of what the gas is pushing against to get out.

The rocket merely sits atop this.
Then how does it get pushed up?
You need something touching the rocket to push it up. The only thing there is the gas.

The outside pressure has everything to do with the reaction to the thrust. It's why everything works, not just a rocket.
No, it is a fairly minor factor limiting the amount of thrust you can get out of it.

Ok, if a rocket thrusts it's fuel into that stack it parts the stack. It opens it up....or to give you a visual, it parts the water.
I'm sure you understand this which is easily verified using ant thrust.
So it doesn't push it down, it just splits it apart. That means it compresses sideways and would try to expand back sideways, not upwards.

This bulge of this stack pushes back and as it does so it starts to push the water back up from the point of the bottom of the delve, upwards.
Again, this clearly isn't the case.
We don't see the water from a water rocket flying up. It goes down.

But the other issue is what about the other way?
You have the rocket pushing up into the stack. Why doesn't the stack just push it back down?

Again, your claims make no sense at all.
If what you are saying is true, motion should be basically impossible with the air pushing you back whenever you try to move through it.
What actually makes sense is the mainstream explanation, which you are yet to show any actual problem with it. The gas, which applies pressure outwards in all directions, applies pressure to the rocket which is unbalanced as there is an opening on one side, making it move upwards.

The gas exits on its own.
How?
Is it sentient?
How does the gas just manage to move itself?
Why can't the rocket do the same?

Each molecule or gas decompresses against each molecule in a chain reaction.
So not by itself, it is the gas behind it pushing it out, which eventually goes down to the rocket, i.e. the rocket pushes the gas out.
Stop trying to stop the chain reaction before it reaches the rocket.

No I'm not contradicting myself.
Really?
You just did in that post.

Now to answer your question.

The remaining 999 litres did push it out
Notice the direct contradiction?
First, "the remaining 999 liters didn't push it out"
followed by "The remaining 999 litres did push it out"

A direct contradiction.
So which is it? Did the remaining 999 litres push it out or not?
You can't have both.

It's not positively pushing.
Stop using your fake definitions and bringing in positive or negative. Start using the real definitions which other people here are using.
It is pushing, plain and simple. There is still pressure acting on the gauge.

One simple question for Sceptimatic.
What happens if you place a rocket upside down on a weighing scale?
Assuming you could balance it and for the scale to measure the dense mass of the atmosphere the rocket has displaced with the rocket as a dead stick, right?

Quote from: Lag_Man
The thrust is then pointed toward 'space', with nothing to push against. Will the scale reading still increase when the rocket fires?
Then the rocket simply thrusts into the above atmospheric stack and compresses that which pushes back by decompressing to create the equal and opposite reactionary push back which adds more mass measurement to the scale.

Not sure what you're trying to gain from this.

You have confused me with somebody else.
I was not talking about water.
I was talking about gas in chamber.
My apologies. I simply thought you were on about gas and water as in the water bottle rocket. This is what happens when there's a few people to deal with all with different queries.

Quote from: Macarios

1000 liters of gas with 1000 PSI pressure push one of those liters out (by force),
the liter that is exiting is pushing back with reaction force.
I know that you know what is "reaction force".
Remaining 999 liters expand into 1000 liters of a bit less dense gas, with the pressure of 999 PSI.
One of those liters gets pushed out with the 0.1% weaker force.
Is that weaker force still there?
Is the reaction force of the next liter just 0.1% weaker, or doesn't exist at all any more?
The first liter has mass, the second liter also has mass, and as they exit they make stack. :)
Yes the force would be weaker inside the container if you shut it off after losing 0.1% because the overall expansion would equalise to become a now overall compression but 0.1% less compressed.

One simple question for Sceptimatic.
What happens if you place a rocket upside down on a weighing scale?
Assuming you could balance it and for the scale to measure the dense mass of the atmosphere the rocket has displaced with the rocket as a dead stick, right?

Stop answering questions with semantic questions.
I'm making sure people are clear on what my stance is. If you can't handle that then take a back seat.

You aren't clear on anything.  You are deflecting from actually providing an answer that you know will result in contradicting yourself.

You aren't clear on anything.  You are deflecting from actually providing an answer that doesn't contradict yourself.
I am very clear on everything. What's not clear to you is the fact you can't grasp what I'm putting forward and that's clear to me.

I have no need to deflect anything worthy of reply. I also do not contradict myself pertaining to this.
I'm certainly not infallible and can make mistakes in explanations but then again when you type to a lot of different people who are hitting you with all kinds of scenarios, I'm bound to appear like I'm all the things you and other say. But whose fault is that?

The problem a lot of you have is in refusing to see my way of thinking because you place your own barriers up due to adherence to your mainstream model...which is fine but it doesn't help you get the gist of how mine works, yet many will argue they know, when clearly I can see they only get part of it before setting themselves back.

It becomes frustrating for some who then resort to using the arguments that I'm contradicting and using my own words or not being clear or not even using English by someone who can't even take the time to type it.


And so on.

And so on.

What you post is very clear.  It isn't hard to understand what you are saying.

What is problematic is when you explain something that is contradictory to what is observed in reality and when questioned further, your further examples and details are contradictory to your previous statements.  You bounce around avoiding answers.  Complain that people don't understand.  Provide little or half-assed details.

If your theory is so solid and correct, you shouldn't be avoiding any questions.  Your claim that people don't understand wouldn't need to be said.  You would present your ideas with clear information and not deflect from questions.


If you want to be taken seriously, present your idea without deflection.  Your theory would be better received if you didn't deflect from answering.  Bad examples and explanations are better than deflecting.  Your failure to admit to it, just adds to the acceptance that your theory is absolute junk.

Yes, we're "sure people are clear on what your stance is" and we're simply trying to tell you that it does not fit reality.

Rockets do work and continuing to have a huge thrust in air of such low density that any claims that they push off the air are completely unbelievable.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Youve defined negative as "less than before".
And youve provided two (TWO) definitions for positive - "pressure on gauge when air is not moving" and/ or "pressure being added to a closed system so that it increases the previous definition for positive"
I've provided two because there is two in the scenario I gave.
You create your own problems by refusing to pay attention.

Quote from: Themightykabool
And now youve provided a thrid (THIRD) state of positive - "not positive".
I haven't provided a third.

Quote from: Themightykabool
If "negative" is not the opposite of "positive" as per above, then "not positive" must be the opposite of "positive".
And in such, by using this term, means nothing is pressing on the gauge when theres an opening.
Which
Then still requires an answer of what - in between the water and the rocket- isis pushing up the rocket?




Scepti quote:
It's not positively pushing.

Scepti quote:
Quote from: Stash
- Negative pressure
Negative pressure is simple a pressure that cannot achieve what it was once doing.
For instance, if the container is sealed and the pressure inside the container shows a set reading by pushing on the piston with a set compressive force to hold that piston but is then allowed to decompress away from it (valve opening) then the pressure it once exerted is now unable to do so with that same force and so it becomes a negative pressure.

Quote from: Stash
- Positive pressure
This works both ways.
Either contained pressure that exerts a set gauge reading or added pressure to advance that gauge reading. That's both positive pressure readings.


Anything else you need to understand?
It's pretty simple, right?

I suggest you stop putting barriers in your own way.

Quote from: rabinoz

They are completely unbelievable because you underestimate the power of atmospheric pressure because you simply walk about in it and think it's neither nothing nor something in the grand scheme of things.

You fail to understand that the power of it is massive when there is a direct.....DIRECT conflict with it with an object of energy.

You only know the power of it when you take something from it or contain it and then you see.

The proof rockets do not work in your space of even extreme low pressure is easy to test even without a burning effigy.

You simply sit a water bottle rocket on a reasonable sized evacuation chamber using the upside down nozzle end of the bottle as yourchamber seal.

Then simply pop open the nozzle and see if your bottle rocket takes off.

I'll let you work that one out.

I'm making sure people are clear on what my stance is. If you can't handle that then take a back seat.
If you actually cared about being clear you would stop using made up definitions.
You would pretend that something being less than before makes it negative. Instead you would admit it is still positive.

You are intentionally being opaque to try and hide the fact that your model doesn't work.

But whose fault is that?
Your's, for having a model which doesn't work to describe reality yet continuing to pretend it does, and using intentionally misleading language which is not English to try and pretend you have a working model; all while refusing to answer very simple questions.

We are not the problem here.

There's nothing contradictory and I do not avoid answers, except the one's I've already answered time and time again.
You mean the ones you have been unable to answer and ran away from time and time again?
The ones where at best you offer non-answers and then run from the refutation of those non-answers?

If you don;t want to be confused then stick to one thing at a time and get familiar with it before you try to put obstacles in your own way.
And we have done that before, and then brought up a new thing and you directly contradicted your prior explanation, because the new thing we brought up doesn't work with your prior explanation.

you underestimate the power of atmospheric pressure
No, that would be you.
We accept the pressure of gases, and how they push outwards.
But you want to pretend they all just happily decide to pushing outwards in all directions and instead just walk on out.
If you actually accepted the power of air pressure you would accept that rockets work in a vacuum due to pressure inside the rocket engine.

The proof rockets do not work in your space of even extreme low pressure is easy to test even without a burning effigy.
Then run along and test it.
Because all the evidence indicates they work.
The proof they MUST work is provided in a very simple question you have been repeatedly avoiding.

You simply sit a water bottle rocket on a reasonable sized evacuation chamber
No sane person would put large amounts of water into a reasonably sized evacuation chamber unless they didn't care about the quality of the vacuum.
It is quite a pain to get it all out.

It is also entirely pointless as people like you will still dismiss it saying the rocket was pushing off the floor of the chamber, or that it wasn't actually a vacuum.

If you want to say you aren't avoiding questions, then why I have been unable to get you to answer a very simple one with anything more than a few words which completely ignores the point of the question and which immediately raises more?
Is it because you actually are avoiding these questions because you know you cannot answer them without destroying your model or sounding completely ridiculous?

If you aren't avoiding the questions then ANSWER THEM!
I will even be nice and just make it the 1 question.
If you don't answer this question in a meaningful way which actually addresses the issues raised, guess what that means? YOU ARE AVOIDING IT!

Again:
For my rocket in a vacuum example, what is the gas pushing off in order to exist the rocket which can allow the gas to move, but not the rocket?
You have previously provided the non-answers of "the gas" and "itself".
Well if the gas can push against itself that means that objects can push against themselves to move, so the rocket can push against itself and there is no problem with rockets working in a vacuum. But you have previously stated that objects CANNOT push themselves and used that as a key argument for why rockets can't work in a vacuum, so that non-answer directly contradicts your claims and, if taken as true, refutes your own argument.
If it can push against the gas, then the gas is something that can be used as leverage, which means the rocket can use it as leverage and push off it to move so once again rockets work in a vacuum.
And that really is the killer.
In general you have 3 options to explain the motion of the gas.
1 - Itself, which is already dealt with above.
2 - The rocket, which means the gas is pushing on the rocket and thus the rocket will be pushed away by it and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
3 - Something else, which is covered by the gas, where this something else is being used as leverage and thus the rocket can use it as well.
Any option you pick will mean the rocket works in a vacuum.

You need a substantially bigger sized chamber than that.

First of all the chamber isn't a vacuum. It's low pressure and the can is super high pressure and the very second it breaches the super high pressure is immediately super expanded into the chamber and filling the space in super quick time, directly in front of the breach which builds that external compression back to expansion reaction.

Make that chamber much much bigger and you'll see a massive difference with that can and any other supposed rocket.

First of all, you referenced an "Extreme low pressure" environment *see your above comment). This experiment here is extreme low pressure. A near vacuum as specified.

Second of all, in a near vacuum, the can shouldn't move at all, according to your theory. Yet it does.

Thirdly, for one with a theory, you never produce any math or experiments to back up your theory. Yet you ask others to do so. Why is that?

Yep and a suitably sized evacuation chamber.
In something as small as the one in the video, it negates that suitability for obvious reasons of which I'm sure you will understand.

Quote from: Stash

Second of all, in a near vacuum, the can shouldn't move at all, according to your theory. Yet it does.
In an extreme low pressure inside a large chamber it would move very little compared to what it would move in normal atmospheric environment.

Do you agree?
If not then go and do the experiment with the same set up of hanging the same can and apply heat under it until it bursts and see what happens.
This alone proves your low pressure creates much less reaction to can breach of expanded gases and liquid.
 
Quote from: Stash

Thirdly, for one with a theory, you never produce any math or experiments to back up your theory. Yet you ask others to do so. Why is that?
I don't need maths to explain anything.
Experiments are for you people to do to prove to yourselves, not to me. I don't care what you believe without experiment. You are welcome to stick rigid to mainstream ideals but you can do your own experiments to prove stuff to yourself only, without any need to follow mass peer pressure to simply believe on theory without genuine proof by physical reality.

I'm not going to not object to all the BS you spout just so you can ignore me again.
Until you start playing nice and actually dealing with what is being said I will continue to expose all of your BS.

Like I said, if you just want 1 thing to deal with, deal with the question I have asked you repeatedly, which you have repeatedly avoided.
Here it is again:

If you aren't going to deal with that, then you have no excuse.
So are you going to "play along"?
You are the one wasting time here, by repeatedly avoiding such simple questions and asking for experiments which you have no intention of ever accepting the results for.

First of all the chamber isn't a vacuum.
And surprise surprise, you dismiss it.
Why bother asking when you are just going to reject it?

Like I said, go do it yourself, or better still, answer my question.

It's low pressure
i.e. a vacuum.

the can is super high pressure
Just like the rocket exhaust.

the very second it breaches the super high pressure is immediately super expanded into the chamber and filling the space in super quick time
Nope. Clearly contradicted by the video where the gauge doesn't show any increase in pressure.
Gas, by virtue of having mass, cannot immediately do anything. It takes time for it to spread out.

These are YOUR words.
And as per belpw, highlighted and underlined., youve defined to us what positive is and what positive isnt.
And since "not positive" is incorrect,
The pressure is not all transferred to the open end.
then we can throw your shit out and end this insanity.


See highlighted statement below.

From what i can decufer:
There is decompressing sponges inside the rocket.
The rocket sits on the external air that is being compressed and loaded up like a trampoline.
When the trampoline of sponges reaches max compression, the rocket is shot upwards.


I have to be careful how I answer this because this could set you right back.

You're on the right lines in one area but you must not forget the gas is always thrusting from the rocket as this compression happens.
Now once this compression happens it happens consistently whilst the rocket gas is thrusting.

It's almost like you having a rocket full of water that immediately turns to ice as it exits the rocket and that ice starts to make a splat on the ground but my hands start to scoop it up to make a mound of stop the ice from collapsing.
Now imagine the rocket continually doing this and me continually packing the mound further up.
The rocket sits above this all the time it keeps losing this water to ice to mound build.
It simply sits atop of it.

Now just picture this all happening super fast.

You'll never get it if you cannot marry up the analogy and you can certainly set yourself right back if you refuse to attempt to see it.

Great
So the air in the tube  that is expanding/ decompressing and pushing the water out is the same spongs air you claim is not pushing the inside of the rocket tube - so what is in contact between the rocket tube and this foundation of water?


It's not positively pushing. I've explained this time and time again, same with the gauge.
The only times the air will positively push is when it is either applied energy to add more pressure to compress or the compression already in the container is sealed and contained.

Open it up and you lose the positive pressure on the container and transfer it all to the open end
and everything hit by it or resisting it, it being feeling that positive exiting pressure.

First of all, you referenced an "Extreme low pressure" environment *see your above comment). This experiment here is extreme low pressure. A near vacuum as specified.
Yep and a suitably sized evacuation chamber.
In something as small as the one in the video, it negates that suitability for obvious reasons of which I'm sure you will understand.

In your world, the can shouldn't move at all as it has nothing to push off of. Extreme low pressure and the gas doesn't hit the wall, yet it moves forward. Hmmm.

Quote from: Stash

Second of all, in a near vacuum, the can shouldn't move at all, according to your theory. Yet it does.
In an extreme low pressure inside a large chamber it would move very little compared to what it would move in normal atmospheric environment.

And your evidence for this is? Hmmm

Do you agree?
If not then go and do the experiment with the same set up of hanging the same can and apply heat under it until it bursts and see what happens.
This alone proves your low pressure creates much less reaction to can breach of expanded gases and liquid.

Makes no sense, gibbersih.

Quote from: Stash

Thirdly, for one with a theory, you never produce any math or experiments to back up your theory. Yet you ask others to do so. Why is that?
I don't need maths to explain anything.
Experiments are for you people to do to prove to yourselves, not to me. I don't care what you believe without experiment. You are welcome to stick rigid to mainstream ideals but you can do your own experiments to prove stuff to yourself only, without any need to follow mass peer pressure to simply believe on theory without genuine proof by physical reality.

Here's what you don't get: It's not an appeal to just mainstream explanations of reality. It's observed and applied reality. What you don't understand is that lots of stuff is designed, engineered and manufactured to work certain ways based upon what you would refer to as 'mass peer pressure' ways and means. Your notions render common tools, modes, and any sort of locomotion unusable by existing mechanisms. If we applied your notions to the real world, things as designed wouldn't work. But they do. That's the conundrum. It's not just things like rockets, a combustion engine would not work as designed based upon your notions. The way we understand how water freezes and thaws doesn't work in your notion. So many things as designed just simply would not work if we all of a sudden adhered to your notions. That's where I'm truly confounded.

Why does everything work when they don't even remotely take your notions into account?

Quote from: Stash

This little web video alone blows up (no pun intended) denpressure.
No it doesn't. It actually doesn't do a lot to be fair.

Oh, but it does and then some.

Like I said, if you just want 1 thing to deal with, deal with the question I have asked you repeatedly, which you have repeatedly avoided.
Here it is again:
For my rocket in a vacuum example, what is the gas pushing off in order to exist the rocket which can allow the gas to move, but not the rocket?
First of all, in your fictional vacuum scenario you have zero external resistance outside of your fictional space rocket.
The gas inside that rocket, once allowed to be decompressed, will decompress by the exit first, meaning the molecules of gas at the front will naturally fully expand out because there's nothing for them to hit to be recompressed a little against any resistant external atmosphere/molecules.

These exiting molecules are simply decompressing on their own after being squashed inside the container/rocket.
The first molecules out would hit nothing. They would be free to expand to their full potential because there's nothing to push back onto them.
Ther molecules behind them are already expanding with those at the front because they are attached behind and those behind them are expanding, all at different rates.
Like an uncoiling spring.

There is no return force inside the rocket to push it in the opposite direction, because all the gas molecules are expanding out in the opposite direction and are not pushing back as they do, they are simply expanding out.

What does push back is the external atmosphere but in this fantassy vacuum scenario, there is no such thing, so no working rocket.




Quote from: JackBlack
You have previously provided the non-answers of "the gas" and "itself".
Well if the gas can push against itself that means that objects can push against themselves to move, so the rocket can push against itself and there is no problem with rockets working in a vacuum.
The rocket is a solid object. All it can do is expand and contract within it's structure. That's not going to move it anywhere except an inch in either direction.

If I put laminate floor down and don't leave a gap, it'll expand and create a push on push, which would be the positive pressure I mentioned.
If I left a gap then it would simply expand into that gap.

This is all your solids would do.
What we are dealing with are the applied energy fuels to propel those solids.




Quote from: JackBlack
But you have previously stated that objects CANNOT push themselves and used that as a key argument for why rockets can't work in a vacuum, so that non-answer directly contradicts your claims and, if taken as true, refutes your own argument.
You can't fill a rocket up with gas then open a valve to exit that gas to propel the rocket forward if you do not have something external as a resistance, like another gas or fluid.

They don't work from inside and that's it. Anyone should be able to understand this if they dare to put their mind to it.
There's enough basic stuff around us to show what's really going on.The problem is people are scared to marry it up because they fear ridicule.
Quote from: JackBlack
If it can push against the gas, then the gas is something that can be used as leverage, which means the rocket can use it as leverage and push off it to move so once again rockets work in a vacuum.
And that really is the killer.
The gas does use gas as leverage. I've repeatedly mentioned the gas on gas fight of thrust against resistance....externally....not internally to move the rocket.

Quote from: JackBlack
In general you have 3 options to explain the motion of the gas.
1 - Itself, which is already dealt with above.
Simply massive expansion on exit against massive compression of external atmospheric gas/fluid.

Quote from: JackBlack
2 - The rocket, which means the gas is pushing on the rocket and thus the rocket will be pushed away by it and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
Nope. The gas does not push on the rocket internally. It's all done externally.

Quote from: JackBlack
3 - Something else, which is covered by the gas, where this something else is being used as leverage and thus the rocket can use it as well.
The rocket uses it all but it's used in the ways I've explained.

Quote from: JackBlack
Any option you pick will mean the rocket works in a vacuum.
Clearly not.
It's best for you to acknowledge that I've answered all your questions fair and square and I'll be using this as my reference to show that I've repeatedly answered these questions.

Quote from: JackBlack
If you aren't going to deal with that, then you have no excuse.
So are you going to "play along"?
You are the one wasting time here, by repeatedly avoiding such simple questions and asking for experiments which you have no intention of ever accepting the results for.
If you can't accept the answers then don;t but do not start whining about not being given answers.
I'm not here to give you the answers you crave and you're not here to accept anything against mainstream ideals.
Understand this and you can carry on at your leisure.

Again you srate no pushing back up through into the rocket.

First of all, in your fictional vacuum scenario you have zero external resistance outside of your fictional space rocket.
The gas inside that rocket, once allowed to be decompressed, will decompress
HOW?
This requires the gas to move.
What is the gas pushing against to move?
Decompressing on their own means expanding outwards in ALL directions.

But you aren't even having them just expand. Instead you have the gas molecules at the edge magically move outwards and expand. This makes no sense.

Yet again you are ignoring the question.
What are they pushing off to move?

If they don't need something to push off to move, then there is no basis to claim the rocket does.

All it can do is expand and contract within it's structure. That's not going to move it anywhere except an inch in either direction.
Expansion and contraction alone can't move anything.
All it can do is change its size.

Anyone should be able to understand this if they dare to put their mind to it.
No, if people actually bother to put their mind to it and think about even just this simple question they would realise that rockets MUST work in a vacuum, as the only alternative is for the gas to remain magically trapped inside the tube.


The gas does use gas as leverage.
So the gas inside the rocket?
If so, WHY CAN'T THE ROCKET?
If you mean the gas outside the rocket, that isn't there in this case and thus is irrelevant.

Clearly not.
Clearly so, as the option you picked out of those 3 was the gas using gas as leverage, which means the rocket can as well.

It's best for you to acknowledge that I've answered all your questions fair and square
Only when you actually address the issues raised.
Once again you started off by completley ignoring it, appealing to the gas simply expanding rather than telling me what it is pushing off.
The closest you have come to answering has been saying the gas is using gas as leverage, which would mean the rocket can as well.

When you either tell me what the gas is pushing off in this scenario and either admit the rocket can also push off against that or provide an actual explanation as to why the rocket can't, or you instead claim that the gas will remain trapped in the tube, then I will say you have answered the question.
Until then, I won't, as you haven't answered the question.

Again stop with the insults.
I am here to debate. If you can actually justify mainstream science being wrong, I will accept that. If you can actually provide a model which can explain things without repeatedly contradicting itself, I will accept that.
But so far you haven't done either. You haven't even come close.

I'm not going to accept that you have answered a question just because you claim to have.
I'm not going to accept your repeated non-answers which avoid the very issue the question is raising as an answer, as it doesn't address the issue raised.
Nor will I accept anything vague.

My bad, missed this part before:
In an extreme low pressure inside a large chamber it would move very little compared to what it would move in normal atmospheric environment.

Do you agree?
If not then go and do the experiment with the same set up of hanging the same can and apply heat under it until it bursts and see what happens.

No, I don't agree, and I'm pretty sure no one would.

The energy from the rocket comes from a pressure difference.

Which should produce more thrust, 1 bar in a can opened to the atmosphere, or 10? Why the 10? Because it has a larger pressure differential.

And no, your suggestion wont help at all.
What you need to do is have the can fail at the same temperature so the gas inside is at the same pressure. That way the only variable is the outside pressure.
Your suggestion of heating up the can will increase the pressure inside the can.

Your hypothetical experiment does nothing to prove anything.

I don't need maths to explain anything.
If you want anything quantitative you do.

Experiments are for you people to do to prove to yourselves
We already have abundant proof that rockets work in a vacuum and that your model is pure nonsense.
You are the one who needs to be doing experiments, rather than relying upon hypothetical thought experiments where you get the hypothetical results to back up your model.

I'm pretty sure you can understand what the words underneath mean.

If you were speaking English it would be simple, it means it is not pushing. (as "negative pushing" would really be pulling).
But with your skepanese, you have negatively pushing as just pushing less, which means it is still pushing.
So is that what you mean by "not positively pushing", that it is still pushing, just less than before?

They remove themselves from the bus
So they are sentient?
They stop pushing outwards in all directions and just casually step off the bus?

If they aren't sentient, then why do the stop pushing outwards in all directions?

And no, the slinky is not a perfect example.
All you have there is a travelling wave.

It's the changing of size that creates the movement.

No, if people actually bother to put their mind to it and think about even just this simple question they would realise that rockets MUST work in a vacuum, as the only alternative is for the gas to remain magically trapped inside the tube.
The gas cannot remain in the tube unless there are not enough of them to expand out of it and this can only ever happen after the mass of compressed molecules have expanded out to leave what's left to expand but stay dormant inside the tube but this would be against equally dormant molecules on the outside or basically would be in a low pressure environment.

In atmosphere everything would simply equalise after the point of the gas being unable to compress the atmosphere due to the amount of the molecules expanding against it.
This would then be equalised.

It's all waves and vibrations due to compression and decompression of anything.

Notice where the spring collides to create push on push due to expansion to compression to expansion to compression...and so on.
This is what's happening outside the rocket from gases expanding out to atmospheric stack being compressed down and pushing back by decompression.

This would move the rocket if it was married up to gas on gas instead of spring on spring clash analogy.


Now take away the foundation of the spring, or the man's hand and you lose that return energy because there's nothing to clash and compress.
This would be your vacuum which makes your space rocket pointless, because it absolutely could not use its gases to do any reactionary work to it's action of expansion.

The gas cannot remain in the tube
That still isn't answering the question.
I know the gas won't remain in the tube, because it is pushing outwards in all directions, including on the rocket. This will cause the gas to go one way and the rocket to go the other (as the rocket pushes back).
But you reject that.
Instead you claim the rocket can't move because it has nothing to use as leverage.
That applies equally to the gas.
So how can the gas escape if what you claim is true?

Again, what is the gas pushing off?

Telling me it can't stay in the tube because there is a vacuum is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Telling me it is expanding is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Saying what happens in the atmosphere is not answering the question as that is talking about a completely different issue.
Providing a one or two word response is not answering the question as that does not explain why the equivalent doesn't work for the rocket.


Until you actually tell me what the gas is pushing off in this situation to allow it to move out of the rocket and into the vacuum, and also address why this doesn't work for the rocket or also result in the rocket moving you have failed to answer the question.

So again, what is the gas pushing off and why doesn't that mean the rocket will move as well?

Of course it's irrelevant.
If it is irrelevant then why bring it up?
You tell me to stick to one issue, and thing bring up other issues. Why?
Is it because you don't actually want me to stick to one, because you know it will show you are wrong?

So why are you arguing with me?
Because unlike you I actually care about the truth.
You have come here and spouted pure nonsense to try and encourage others to completely disregard reality.

Also, I would hardly call it arguing as you aren't even bothering to attempt to address the issues raised.

They don't stop pushing outwards in all directions.
Thanks for the admission that gas always pushes outwards in all directions.
With that the discussion is over as that means inside the rocket the gas is still pushing outwards in all directions.
This means it is applying a force to the rocket.
As there is an opening in the rocket, this force will be unbalanced.
This means the rocket will have a net force acting upon it from this gas.
This means the rocket will move, with no need for an external atmosphere.

If you wish to say otherwise, then you need your gas to NOT push outwards in all directions, which raises the question of why does it magically stop? Is it sentient?

The slinky is a perfect example of the waves
Waves yes, but not what we are talking about.
We are talking about bulk motion, not waves. They are quite different.
If you want a slinky as an example, having one which is released is far better.

Notice where the spring collides to create push on push due to expansion to compression to expansion to compression...and so on.
And notice how it doesn't stay in the one location?
Notice how it doesn't just magically flip the wave around?

Or do you mean when it hits the end?
If that was the case then the gas would need to fly down, hit the ground, bounce and come back. So that doesn't explain rockets at all.

So that rules out your space rockets and the space you believed you knew.

Wait, im confused by your logic now. Maybe because I have not read this whole thread, there is a lot.

But if vacuums cant exist. And rockets dont work in vacuums.

Your saying rockets work in space!

I think we are making progress
Correct, you are confused because I've never said rockets work in space. Are you part of a tag team or are you actually just one person who changes names?

If none of these then show me where I said what you think I said?

Right
You told us.
And then you gave the analogy of people getting off a bus.
If they canget off the bus, the bus is then empty.
Your analogy.
That contradicts the sponge analogy.

Sorry, I was not clear.

By your reasoning, you implied rockets work in the region that we describe as space.

Don't cherry pick quotes and then make them look like something they're not.
I'm not cherry picking anything.
I am providing enough to show that it doesn't answer my question.

How about instead of just providing the full useless quote again you highlight just where in it my question is answered?

You seem to just be doing whatever you can to avoid an extremely simple question, all because you know this extremely simple question destroys your claims.

Again, care to answer it?
What is the gas PUSHING off to allow it to move? What is it using as LEVERAGE? And why doesn't the equivalent work for the rocket to allow it to move.

Can you even attempt to answer it?

Telling me it can't stay in the tube because there is a vacuum is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Telling me it is expanding is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Saying what happens in the atmosphere is not answering the question as that is talking about a completely different issue.
Providing a one or two word response is not answering the question as that does not explain why the equivalent doesn't work for the rocket.


Until you actually tell me what the gas is pushing off in this situation to allow it to move out of the rocket and into the vacuum, and also address why this doesn't work for the rocket or also result in the rocket moving you have failed to answer the question.

So again, what is the gas pushing off and why doesn't that mean the rocket will move as well?

How can all molecules be attached when molecules do not change in size yet their volume is far less than the volume of space that they occupy.

Stop pretending that you can dream up your own "Theory of everything" and expect it to describe reality.

Research and experimental evidence are absolutely necessary to get even a basic understanding of "how things work".

They do change in size. Think gobstopper and the peel. If you paid attention you'd understand.... if you're honest.

Quote from: rabinoz
Stop pretending that you can dream up your own "Theory of everything" and expect it to describe reality.
It's not just about dreaming, it's about seeing things in life visually/physically and understanding why things work and realising what you were told is not entirely the truth and is only a theory itself.
That's the difference and you can't deny that.

Quote from: rabinoz
Research and experimental evidence are absolutely necessary to get even a basic understanding of "how things work".
Yep and in many cases experimental evidence shows reality and sometimes it doesn't, so a theory as to what's happening comes to the fore to explain it, such as gravity and all kinds of other descriptions in order to make fantasies appear to work...such as space rockets and all stuff pertaining to that fantasy as one full instance.
This is why I figured out the alternative that does fit but I'm certainly not expecting anyone to accept it when the narrative has already been set en-masse.
Quote from: rabinoz
Learn something from those that know far more than you: 11.1: A Molecular Comparison of Gases, Liquids, and Solids (http://11.1: A Molecular Comparison of Gases, Liquids, and Solids).
I have no doubt many many people know far more than me on many many subjects.
What I'm arguing about is my theory that fits better the way I see it and conduct the experiments from it, that what I'm told and sold by mainstream so called scientists pushing certain ways something works when it clearly does not. Which brings us back to space rockets again as a major instance.

Essentially the world has to be flat in the walk upon it sense and water sense and for that to be the case it must have a covering.
It does. It has a dome and everything works with that notion, without having to add in nonsense like black holes and axis spinning and people walking on top of a ball with buildings just managing to be perfectly plumb and water just happening to be perfectly level and can also be used as a level and yet we're told it's all really curving, when our own logic and physical observations tell us otherwise.... all the rest of the utter garbage spouted by those whose job it is to reel it all off with words spouted to make your globe appear to be a working model in so called space.

So don't talk to me about dreamt up stuff.

We re talking about air.
If other elements move in to fill an air molecule, it changes the composition of air.
What are these elements and where do they come from?

Say in a sealed piston container that doesnt allow air to pass through.
Piston is left at half position and filled with air.
Lets say we get a really strong machine to pull the piston to full position.
Since its sealed and air tight, no air goss in.
What elements then can fill in the gaps of a sponge air inside the piston to essentially double its size/ volume?

When the molecule expands, does it gain more layers or does it's existing layers get larger?  How?

Post by: Macarios on November 29, 2019, 07:51:55 AM
The gas cannot remain in the tube unless there are not enough of them to expand out of it and this can only ever happen after the mass of compressed molecules have expanded out to leave what's left to expand but stay dormant inside the tube but this would be against equally dormant molecules on the outside or basically would be in a low pressure environment.

Next time you do this you will be overlooked completely.

The portion of gas can't / won't exit on its own.
You and I established that together.
Which means it can only be pushed out by the expansion of the remaining gas inside.

You surely remember what is inertia.
It shows that the portion of gas won't exit if there is no force to cause the movement.

Why would that (or any) portion of gas do anything without some force?

We also established that in the process the inner pressure will fall,
for example, from 997 to 996 PSI, but won't become zero yet.

Then the remaining 996 PSI will produce force to push out the next portion, drop to 995 PSI, and so on.

How does your gobbstopper theory explain suction cups?
There's no such thing as suction cups in the sense of the word, suck.
Those cups work because air is pushed out of them by compression to push away the external air, which means the air pushed out is now added to the external air and that overcomes the much weaker molecules of air left inside the cup.
Less push back which leaves the cup clamped to whatever it is clamped against.

Think of this bunch of layered molecules as part of a material/element of something that's been squashed/compressed to mammoth proportions.


If we want to look at gas molecules we'd simply look at the same gobstopper mindset and picture it with a hell of a lot of less layers.

It takes some getting your head around and can;t simply be explained like this in one fell swoop but you need to get the gist of what I'm saying if you want to understand further and I'll know this by what you type, whether it's worth answering so put some effort in if you're serious.
Nobody's asking you to accept it, just to understand it from my side.

I'm also not interested in you or anyone telling me it's wrong so don't bother with that stuff.

So using your gobstopper theory.

When the molecule expands, does it gain more layers or does it's existing layers get larger?  How?
It loses layers.

How does your gobbstopper theory explain suction cups?
There's no such thing as suction cups in the sense of the word, suck.
Those cups work because air is pushed out of them by compression to push away the external air, which means the air pushed out is now added to the external air and that overcomes the much weaker molecules of air left inside the cup.
Less push back which leaves the cup clamped to whatever it is clamped against.

Great.
Air molecules can be pushed out.
So people on a bus was your analogy.
Sponges was also your analogy.
So is it possible that spong epoeple on a bus can be completely removed from a bus?

Don't cherry pick quotes and then make them look like something they're not.
I'm not cherry picking anything.
I am providing enough to show that it doesn't answer my question.

How about instead of just providing the full useless quote again you highlight just where in it my question is answered?

You seem to just be doing whatever you can to avoid an extremely simple question, all because you know this extremely simple question destroys your claims.

Again, care to answer it?
What is the gas PUSHING off to allow it to move? What is it using as LEVERAGE? And why doesn't the equivalent work for the rocket to allow it to move.

Can you even attempt to answer it?

Telling me it can't stay in the tube because there is a vacuum is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Telling me it is expanding is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Saying what happens in the atmosphere is not answering the question as that is talking about a completely different issue.
Providing a one or two word response is not answering the question as that does not explain why the equivalent doesn't work for the rocket.


Until you actually tell me what the gas is pushing off in this situation to allow it to move out of the rocket and into the vacuum, and also address why this doesn't work for the rocket or also result in the rocket moving you have failed to answer the question.

So again, what is the gas pushing off and why doesn't that mean the rocket will move as well?
Refer back to the answers I gave and stop pretending you didn't get answers.
I have explained why the "answers" you gave are not actually answers.
I am not the one pretending here.

The closest you have come to an answer is saying the gas, but that would mean that rockets work in a vacuum because the rocket can use the gas as well.

If you want that to be taken as the answer, then admit that rockets work in a vacuum.

If not, then you have failed to provide an answer.

I will continue to ask for an answer until you actually provide one.

So again, what is the gas pushing off to move?

But thanks for yet again showing that your claims of being happy to deal with one topic are nothing more than blatant lies.
You are only happy to deal with things that don't show you to be completely wrong.

At no time did I ever use sponge people

Where you gave an analogy of people on a bus, magical people just like your magical sponge molecules, trying to expand?

They do change in size.
You have no evidence that gas molecules change size.
All the evidence indicates they remain the same size.

Think gobstopper and the peel.
Which don't change size either.

It's not just about dreaming, it's about seeing things in life visually/physically and understanding why things work and realising what you were told is not entirely the truth and is only a theory itself.
That's the difference and you can't deny that.
We don't need to deny it when it is so blatantly false.
You are not able to a single problem with mainstream science's explanation of gasses.
You just invent a pile of delusional nonsense to escape the reality of a round Earth.
Meanwhile, plenty of problems in your model have been shown and you just ignore them.

So no, I would say for you it is just about dreaming.
It has no connection to reality at all and you aren't even attempting to make one.
Your pile of nonsense isn't even a theory. it is a collection of contradictory, refuted hypotheses.

Essentially the world has to be flat
And that is the entire basis of your model, the delusional belief that Earth must be flat, which causes you to reject so much of science, because it shows Earth isn't flat.
You have no justification for any of it.

So yes, you are the one with the dreamt up nonsense with no concern for the truth. All of your denspressure nonsense stems from your dream of a flat Earth.

It is so disconnected from reality that you need to avoid extremely simple questions which expose the fact that it doesn't work.
It is so full of contradictions that you only ever want to discuss a single issue in extreme isolation because you know the "explanation" you give for it will contradict another very simple observation.

How do you make a sponge ball in a clenched fist get bigger?
The physical size of the sponge doesn't get bigger.
It just changes its orientation/arrangement such that it has larger openings.

It loses layers.
When a gobstopper loses layers it gets smaller.
How does fewer layers equate to a larger size?
And where are these layers going?

Applied energy to put it back into the compressed state it was originally in.

Quote from: Stash

How many layers in a sea level air molecule?
Not sure, I have no physical way to tell.


Quote from: Stash

What is each layer comprised of?
A variation of compressed elements.
What that is is anyone's guess. How long is a piece of string.
No point going down this route to be honest.
It's like me asking you what's in the space between your space. You'll say nothing and I'll say there has to be something, then you'll say " no there doesn't" and I'll say " of course there must be something."

How long is a piece of string?
Basically just avoid this type of questioning as it just goes nowhere.
I have told you, so heed what Jackblack cannot heed.

No need to argue this particular point.
Quote from: Stash

As far as shape, would a molecule be more like a cube? If they were spherical, there would be gaps in between, right?
No.
Think of washing up bubbles and how they attach.
This is what would be happening.

Go and look in your sink full of bubbles and notice the massive difference in bubble size and then think what's inside that bubble and what happens when the big bubble pops. Does it disappear or does it lose it's layer and get smaller and attach to other bubbles to fill gaps and even compress into other bubbles?

Can you push a bubble inside another bubble?

It might seem over simplified by what I'm saying but it's only because we cannot physically see what's happening , even with microscopes to get right down to the nitty gritty, but we can observe what happens with what we can see.

There is no mechanism to remove all molecules of air unless you flatten the container which then ceases to be a container.

Your so called "suction" cup has very little force once you push out many air molecules. All the force is now added back into the atmosphere which is then added back to the cup and it's this added extra that causes your cup to be pushed against whatever surface it's against...as long as the seal is capable of not being breached by the added eternal pressure.

That is complete nonsense.
Your denp theory is that the molecules of matter displace sponge air and compress the stack upwards.
By removing air below a suction cup the denP density of the suctoon cup itself didnt change.
The only change isbthe minute amount of air added to the sponge stack above.
That minute amount is what you claim is giving the cup the force.
Which is nonsense because the difference in amount is easily demonstrable.

No it's not. Pay more attention.

Quote from: Themightykabool

It's not about removing air below the cup. It's about pushing the air from the cup back into the atmosphere so it immediately adds to the pressure already on it whilst not allowing it to get back inside to equalise the molecules robbed from it.


Quote from: Themightykabool

There's nothing minute about it and it's added to the entire atmosphere.
I tried to explain it with a swimming pool but it just flies right past the likes of you.
Quote from: Themightykabool
That minute amount is what you claim is giving the cup the force.
The cup doesn't have the force, the atmosphere on the cup is the force.
The force is external to the cup when you force out some of the air within the cup.

Tell me about it and we'll go from there.
Mine is easily demonstrable but you refuse to see it. Maybe because you know it's correct.

You can't say I didn't warn you.
You haven't warned me about anything.
You have just repeatedly avoided simple questions, lied and insulted me and others.

I gave you a chance to just deal with the one issue and you just threw it back at me, still refusing to answer simple questions. Instead you just provided the same non-answers which were already refuted and then just repeated the same lie that you had already answered.

This shows that even those statements where you claimed that you would be happy to just deal with the 1 issue were a blatant lie. You are not happy to deal with anything that shows you are wrong. Instead you will use whatever dishonesty you can to get out of it.

Your continued avoidance of this very simple question shows you have no case.
Until you answer it you have no justification for your claim that rockets can't work in a vacuum.

Again:
What is the gas PUSHING off to allow it to move? What is it using as LEVERAGE? And why doesn't the equivalent work for the rocket to allow it to move.

Can you even attempt to answer it?

Telling me it can't stay in the tube because there is a vacuum is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.

No, it means the non-existence of matter there, not anything.
Logically we can't just ignore that.
But yes, you can ignore it, for obvious reasons as it shows you are wrong, nothing to do with logic.

Because you release the pressure of a layer.
And why would that cause it to expand? You have reduced the size.
At best the layer inside which move out very slightly to produce a size smaller than the original.

And again, is this meant to be a single molecule made up of layers, or are these layers of molecules?
And again, where does this layer go? Where does it come from when it is compressed.

No point going down this route to be honest.
Yes there is as it shows you have no idea.
It shows you rely upon pure nonsense and wild speculation/ignorance.

Basically just avoid this type of questioning as it just goes nowhere.
I have told you, so heed what Jackblack cannot heed.
I can heed it, I'm just not going to give you the satisfaction of kissing your ass as you spout mountains of BS.

The only reason this type of question goes nowhere is because you have no idea what you are talking about and are relying upon wild speculation to try and prop up the complete failure you call a model.

Go and look in your sink full of bubbles and notice the massive difference in bubble size and then think what's inside that bubble and what happens when the big bubble pops.
Air is inside the bubble. When it pops, that air is free to intermingle with the air outside the bubble.
The thin film that made it up will go a few places. A small portion will be aerosilised, some may splatter outwards and some will fall back onto the other bubbles.
No layer BS required.

It might seem over simplified by what I'm saying but it's only because we cannot physically see what's happening , even with microscopes to get right down to the nitty gritty, but we can observe what happens with what we can see.
With electron microscopes we can get atomic resolution. So try again.

Until you actually tell me what the gas is pushing off in this situation to allow it to move out of the rocket and into the vacuum, and also address why this doesn't work for the rocket or also result in the rocket moving you have failed to answer the question.

To remove everything would be to create the free space you people say exist which means a nonexistence of anything and logically we can forget about that....or I can, for obvious reasons.
No, it means the non-existence of matter there, not anything.
Logically we can't just ignore that.
But yes, you can ignore it, for obvious reasons as it shows you are wrong, nothing to do with logic.

Because you release the pressure of a layer.
And why would that cause it to expand? You have reduced the size.
At best the layer inside which move out very slightly to produce a size smaller than the original.

And again, is this meant to be a single molecule made up of layers, or are these layers of molecules?
And again, where does this layer go? Where does it come from when it is compressed.

No point going down this route to be honest.
Yes there is as it shows you have no idea.
It shows you rely upon pure nonsense and wild speculation/ignorance.

Basically just avoid this type of questioning as it just goes nowhere.
I have told you, so heed what Jackblack cannot heed.
I can heed it, I'm just not going to give you the satisfaction of kissing your ass as you spout mountains of BS.

The only reason this type of question goes nowhere is because you have no idea what you are talking about and are relying upon wild speculation to try and prop up the complete failure you call a model.

Go and look in your sink full of bubbles and notice the massive difference in bubble size and then think what's inside that bubble and what happens when the big bubble pops.
Air is inside the bubble. When it pops, that air is free to intermingle with the air outside the bubble.
The thin film that made it up will go a few places. A small portion will be aerosilised, some may splatter outwards and some will fall back onto the other bubbles.
No layer BS required.

It might seem over simplified by what I'm saying but it's only because we cannot physically see what's happening , even with microscopes to get right down to the nitty gritty, but we can observe what happens with what we can see.
With electron microscopes we can get atomic resolution. So try again.
Let me know when you have something to add.

Let me know when you have something to add.
Let me know when you can answer very simple questions which are key to this topic and show you are spouting pure nonsense, and when you can stop avoiding reality just because it doesn't fit your delusion.

Again:
What is the gas PUSHING off to allow it to move? What is it using as LEVERAGE? And why doesn't the equivalent work for the rocket to allow it to move.

Can you even attempt to answer it?

Telling me it can't stay in the tube because there is a vacuum is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Telling me it is expanding is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.

Face it, you have absolutely no justification for your claim that rockets cannot work in a vacuum.
To try and back it up, you rely upon your model which is full of contradictions and need to repeatedly avoid such a simple question.

Why don't you cut the crap and admit you have absolutely no justification and the sole reason you reject rockets working in a vacuum is because they show you are wrong?

It's really quite simple; fundamental to how you think rockets can't fly in a vacuum has to do with your idea as to how molecules exist and behave. And you seem pretty clear on what you think a molecule is and how one relates to another and what they do: Molecules, comprised of layers of something, due to something you call "Applied Energy" makes layers vanish or appear. In doing so, molecules squeeze themselves out the container opening and because they have fattened up by shedding layers they push off of the more svelte molecules of air below that have formed a stack of resistance.

 Things to explore:

- What is Applied Energy?
- How do molecules grow layers?
- How do they make layers disappear? Where do they go?
- We can see molecules - humanity has never seen what you describe - What gives?

But when pressed on the fundamentals of the fundamental nature of your ideas you shut down. Why is this?

here's one that could nip this.

Lackless and scepti insist atmoplane is required for the exhaust gas to push off of.
They believe the medball guy is using the ball to push the air to propell him in the opposite direction.

so.
they contend that inertia is not a thing?
Conservation of momentum is a fundamental law of physics which states that the momentum of a system is constant if there are no external forces acting on the system. It is embodied in Newton's first law (the law of inertia).


so if we had two toy cars with the same sized electric motor.
one weighs 100lbs, the other 10lbs.
it obviously takes the 100lbs car more time to get up to speed because it's weight.
is it because it's pushing against air?
or is it because it's heavier and the "conventional" physics is correct?

Layers.
That is all you will be doing, imagining, because there is no way to make it work.
Do you have any idea how such bubbles work?
There is a small amount of fluid trapped between layers of surfactant, typically with excess surfactant and potentially more layers.
This makes it very flexible and gives it the ability to flow.
This doesn't work for solids. If you don't believe me, go try it with a window.

It's what is pushed back onto the cups by the strength of what is pushed out of those cups to add to the pressure already on them.
You only need to understand what's happening to realise I'm right.
Try looking into how the magdeburg hemispheres work and you'll easily understand why the cup works.

I'm not on about crating a suction seal. I've told you many time there is no suction.
It's a seal created by atmospheric push onto the cup after the cup has had applied energy to it to push out the air molecules to make them too few to push back, meaning they get clamped to the surface of whatever can hold the atmosphere from equalising the cup interior with the exterior so that it creates the same push inside as outside onto the actual material itself.

The 'too few to push back' molecules that are left after applying applied energy must be enormous because you don't believe there is space between them, right?

 Things to explore:

- What is Applied Energy?
Don't make things difficult for yourself. Applied energy is simply just that. It's energy to create a force.
You pushing down on a lever would be applied energy.
Compressing molecules of gas into a tank is applied energy. There's nothing difficult about it.
Quote from: Stash
- How do molecules grow layers?
By compression to create matter/material/elements.
Stuff such as gold to lead to oil to water to sand to air and all particle compressions lead to ever growing layers to make something denser by compression of those layers.

Take the gobstopper and imagine it as in what I'm saying.
Imagine this gobstopper to be super compressed and imagine it as one molecule of matter encased as part of a dense material, for instance.

You can break that material down by stripping layers and making a less dense material. You do this by expanding the material and losing whatever layers depending on manner of expansion.
The opposite happens if you super compress the material to make even more dense material by adding molecular layers by force or applied energy to lock on layers.
Eventually you'd end up with layers pushed into layers of each molecule to make it look like a dense set of olympic rings on whatever scale the material is that is having this applied energy added, or taken away.




Quote from: Stash
- How do they make layers disappear? Where do they go?
They can simply peel away and decompress to form a smaller molecule from the outer layers or expand to form a larger molecule if enough applied energy is upon it to allow that release by expansion.
It's basically an action and reaction sequence all dependent of whatever energy is applied or allowed to be released from the potential energy that is stored in certain molecules/elements.
Quote from: Stash
- We can see molecules - humanity has never seen what you describe - What gives?
It depends what you think can be seen.
We can see a dust mite. Can we see the mites on the dust mite? Do we know if they exist? And if so, can we see the mites in the mites that are on the dust mite?

Do you get my gist?
And also, if you can see molecules you have to be looking through something to see them, which are? Gas/fluid molecules.
We can only see so much and the rest is all about working out potentials by what we actually do observe/feel and experiment on.

Seeing as there is always external forces acting on any system, however small, it kills that law stone dead, meaning inertia is just a word that basically means nothing and a constant is something that cannot ever be achieved.

Yep, it's because it has to displace much more air than the less dense car, meaning more air is being pushed away by it, creating a larger clamping effect by the external atmosphere it is pushing against.

Quote from: Themightykabool
or is it because it's heavier and the "conventional" physics is correct?
It's obviously heavier by scale measurement but it is due to the atmospheric clamping, so conventional physics isn't correct on this.

Put your mind into gear here. Start picturing what I'm about to tell you.

If you had half a tennis ball and filled it full of sand then turned it over onto a solid surface, then poured tons of sand over it, would you crush the half ball?

I think you can say, no....right?

Ok this would be your so called suction cup that has resistance to the air (sand) above because it's cavity is filled to stop it being crushed.

Fair enough?

You can understand from this point that the sand above is clamping the half ball down but only by the skin of the ball all the way to the ground where the thin skin is basically clamped, yet inside is sand that stops that skin from being crushed.

Marry all this up to how air stacks onto anything on the ground...but seeing as we're dealing with a so called suction cup we can understand this part to give you all a leg up.

Now bear in mind that us humans are built to withstand this atmosphere, meaning anything we pick up that is clamped down under this type of circumstance, we can deal with, mainly.

However, add pressure to any object, such as this half ball/cup and things become much different, because, if you push down on the ball with your energy you can push out the sand inside the ball, out to the sides and adding that sand to the sand already around the ball but now you notice the sand has filled the big delve you made in the ball adding more clamping pressure to that ball against the ground.

Now it becomes much harder to try and pick up.

All you have to do is marry it up with atmospheric pressure and understand the stack above everything that pushed into that particular part and how much is pushed back.


Pretty simply if you really put your mind to it.

I'm not on about crating a suction seal. I've told you many time there is no suction.
It's a seal created by atmospheric push onto the cup after the cup has had applied energy to it to push out the air molecules to make them too few to push back, meaning they get clamped to the surface of whatever can hold the atmosphere from equalising the cup interior with the exterior so that it creates the same push inside as outside onto the actual material itself.

The 'too few to push back' molecules that are left after applying applied energy must be enormous because you don't believe there is space between them, right?

If so, they must have grown to fill the void where the others were that left? What's the different between one big molecule and a bunch of little ones?

Additionally, how do they make layers disappear in order to grow?
Put your mind into gear here. Start picturing what I'm about to tell you.

If you had half a tennis ball and filled it full of sand then turned it over onto a solid surface, then poured tons of sand over it, would you crush the half ball?

I think you can say, no....right?

Ok this would be your so called suction cup that has resistance to the air (sand) above because it's cavity is filled to stop it being crushed.

Fair enough?

You can understand from this point that the sand above is clamping the half ball down but only by the skin of the ball all the way to the ground where the thin skin is basically clamped, yet inside is sand that stops that skin from being crushed.

Marry all this up to how air stacks onto anything on the ground...but seeing as we're dealing with a so called suction cup we can understand this part to give you all a leg up.

Now bear in mind that us humans are built to withstand this atmosphere, meaning anything we pick up that is clamped down under this type of circumstance, we can deal with, mainly.

However, add pressure to any object, such as this half ball/cup and things become much different, because, if you push down on the ball with your energy you can push out the sand inside the ball, out to the sides and adding that sand to the sand already around the ball but now you notice the sand has filled the big delve you made in the ball adding more clamping pressure to that ball against the ground.

Now it becomes much harder to try and pick up.

All you have to do is marry it up with atmospheric pressure and understand the stack above everything that pushed into that particular part and how much is pushed back.


Pretty simply if you really put your mind to it.

you description is of conventional physics and how pressure works.
but is complete nonsense when you consider the "seal" effect.
by your nonsense theory it shold work regardless of a seal or not.
but reality shows a seal is necessary.

How can it work without a seal?

You can't keep pumped air in a tyre without having a seal/valve.

You can't keep air from entering a container you just pushed it out of if you don't have a seal.
All it shows me is, you're not paying attention.

It exactly shows conventional physics is correct and that gases apply pressure in ALL DIRECTIONS.
The seal prevents air from pushing up and euqalling or cancelling out the pressure from the other side.
Thats why a suction cup can be applied down onto a piece of glass, that glass can be picked up and changed from horizontal to vertical.
Your denP theory of air pushing down has no way to magically changed to pushing sideways.

Why don't you try and help yourself and answer the question:
What is the gas PUSHING off to allow it to move? What is it using as LEVERAGE?
Gas.
I see you ignored this part:
Providing a one or two word response is not answering the question as that does not explain why the equivalent doesn't work for the rocket.
So yet again you are avoiding the question.

As I have said before, if it is pushing off the gas that means the gas can be used as leverage and thus the rocket can use the gas as leverage and thus rockets work in a vacuum.

So if gas is the answer, then the answer is also that rockets work in a vacuum.

Ignoring this and continuing to provide one word answers doesn't help you at all.

It's what is pushed back onto the cups by the strength of what is pushed out of those cups to add to the pressure already on them.
You only need to understand what's happening to realise I'm right.
No, if we understand what is happening we realise you are wrong.

The air getting pushed out isn't what gives the force to push the cups to the glass.
Instead the atmosphere is.

Try looking into how the magdeburg hemispheres work and you'll easily understand why the cup works.
Yes, it is based upon air pressure, pushing outwards in all directions.
The same principles is what results in rockets working in a vacuum.

I'm not running.
If you aren't running, why are you avoiding so many simple questions?

You are yet to even attempt to answer this one in any honest way:
What is the gas PUSHING off to allow it to move? What is it using as LEVERAGE? And why doesn't the equivalent work for the rocket to allow it to move.

Telling me it can't stay in the tube because there is a vacuum is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Telling me it is expanding is not answering the question as that does not identify what the gas is using as leverage to move.
Saying what happens in the atmosphere is not answering the question as that is talking about a completely different issue.
Providing a one or two word response is not answering the question as that does not explain why the equivalent doesn't work for the rocket.


Quote from: Stash
- How do molecules grow layers?
By compression to create matter/material/elements.
So you are claiming that compressing things literally creates matter from nothing?

If that was the case, the mass of compressed gas would be much higher than the mass of non-compressed gas, but it isn't.
If you take an amount of gas, and then compress it by reducing the volume the mass remains the same.

But why would compressing magically make matter?

You can break that material down by stripping layers and making a less dense material. You do this by expanding the material and losing whatever layers depending on manner of expansion.
The material of the layers are still there. It doesn't just magically disappear, and the inner material doesn't expand.

The opposite happens if you super compress the material to make even more dense material by adding molecular layers by force or applied energy to lock on layers.
Where you need those materials to begin with, and it gets larger.
You don't just magically create the layers from nothing, and it doesn't make that gobstoper smaller.

We can see a dust mite. Can we see the mites on the dust mite?
No, because they don't exist.
Again, electron microscopes allow atomic resolution.

People like you are struggling with my musing as it is so why go further into something you're struggling to grasp from my side.
We aren't struggling. If you truly thought we were, you would go to the basics/fundamentals of it to make it clear.
The problem is you have none as that would create a single system which would almost immediately be contradicted by something else.

Seeing as there is always external forces acting on any system, however small, it kills that law stone dead, meaning inertia is just a word that basically means nothing and a constant is something that cannot ever be achieved.
No, it doesn't, as we can still consider what would happen if there was no net external force, and it still describes a key property of motion.

Quote from: Themightykabool
so if we had two toy cars with the same sized electric motor.
one weighs 100lbs, the other 10lbs.
it obviously takes the 100lbs car more time to get up to speed because it's weight.
is it because it's pushing against air?
Yep, it's because it has to displace much more air than the less dense car, meaning more air is being pushed away by it, creating a larger clamping effect by the external atmosphere it is pushing against.
Nope. It has nothing to do with the air.
If the size and shape of the car were the same they displace the same amount of air when they move.
If what you were saying is true, no one would waste money or time on aerodynamics, and a streamlined car would be no better than a brick.

If you had half a tennis ball and filled it full of sand then turned it over onto a solid surface, then poured tons of sand over it, would you crush the half ball?
I think you can say, no....right?
Now consider if you just never filled the inside with sand in the first place.
Would it crush it?
Yes.
But what happens without the sand above? It isn't crushed.

That means it is the sand above it crushing it, with the sand inside preventing that.
It has nothing to do with displacing the sand inside so it can push back.

But more importantly, notice that this relies upon the sand pushing down.
That means it shouldn't work at all when you have it on the side.

So to link it back to the suction cup, it clearly has nothing to do with the stacking and instead is due to the air pushing outwards in all directions.

Pretty simply if you really put your mind to it.

The world is full of people musing, only some of it is cast out as truth and some of it is cast out as a peer reviewed theory or basically a best guess scenario by those who planted themselves into the authority seats.
You mean some is backed up by mountains of evidence and can actually explain what is observed in reality, while some is based upon rejection of reality, being nothing more than wild speculation full of contradictions incapable of explaining anything.


How can it work without a seal?
By the stack above pushing down.
That is what you continually focus on, the stack pushing down, rather than air pushing outwards in all directions.
That is because your nonsense needs it to push down as that is what you have chosen to replace gravity.

The reason it doesn't work without the seal is because the air doesn't just push down.

Then there is the issue that according to you the air magically penetrates everything, as otherwise so many things easily show your model is wrong, meaning a seal wouldn't exist in your model.
Pointing out that a seal is needed just further shows your model is nonsense.

No. The seal prevents air from pushing back into the cup, not up.

There's no such thing as suction. Nothing sucks.
Pressure is applied in all directions depending on where the cup is placed at any point in the stack and onto a solid surface and then having air pushed out of that cup.

Of course gas is used as leverage but it's against gas. It's a gas on gas fight .
I honestly don't know if you are deliberately not understanding or you genuinely don't understand.

If there is no waiting gas/fluid external to that gas expansion from inside to outside then you have zero work down. No gas fight. No gas collision and nothing for the rocket to rest on to be moved by this gas fight.

Instead of running at this like a bull in a China shop, sit back and think about what I've actually said, in detail and don't come out with the  "oh I know it all, I've read it all." You clearly haven't or you wouldn't be arguing these points.

The air getting pushed out isn't what gives the force to push the cups to the glass.
Instead the atmosphere is.

Of course the atmosphere is but only because you allowed it to by creating extra atmosphere external to the cup by pushing it out of the cup and back into the atmosphere to add to that pressure.
The atmosphere is already exerting pressure on the skin of the cup before that cup goes anywhere.

The cup doesn't clamp to anything with any force that we can't overcome, unless you change that force by pushing out air from inside that cup and adding it to the outside.
That's when you start to feel that extra pressure on the cup because you cannot simply just directly pull it off.

Go back to the sand analogy and pay attention to what was said.

It isn't a case of me not understanding.
Your primary objection to rockets working in a vacuum is that they have nothing to use as leverage.
But the exact same argument would apply equally well to the gas in the rocket.
Either there is nothing to use as leverage and neither can move, meaning gas will remain trapped inside an open tube exposed to a vacuum; or there is something that can be used as leverage and thus the rocket can work in a vacuum.

If there is no waiting gas/fluid external to that gas expansion from inside to outside then you have zero work down.
Which would then mean the gas can't leave.

Again, stop with the insults.
I have clearly thought about what you have said and I realise why it is wrong.

Perhaps it is time for you to sit back and actually think about what has been said and realise that any argument you provide for a rocket not being able to move in a vacuum applies just as well to the gas.

Again, me realising your explanation makes no sense is not me not understanding you.

Of course the atmosphere is but only because you allowed it to by creating extra atmosphere external to the cup by pushing it out of the cup and back into the atmosphere to add to that pressure.
That extra atmosphere is basically nothing.
And more importantly, the force doesn't depend upon how much atmosphere is available.
It clearly has nothing to do with the atmosphere outside being increased.

Go back to the sand analogy and pay attention to what was said.
Good advice. Go back to it and make the modification I suggested.
What happens when you don't initially have the sand under the ball?
Does it still just happily sit there, holding back the rest of the sand and not getting crushed?

Either there is nothing to use as leverage and neither can move, meaning gas will remain trapped inside an open tube exposed to a vacuum; or there is something that can be used as leverage and thus the rocket can work in a vacuum.

The gas inside the rocket expands out naturally due to the energy applied to compress it into the rocket in the first place. That natural expansion can only happen if it comes up against an external gas/fluid that is less compressed than it of which that exiting gas can compress further as a direct reaction to that expanding action.
The gas inside the rocket expands out, it does not equally kick back into the rocket to push the other way.
 A gauge will clearly explain why this is the case, which I've tried to explain in as much detail as I can.

The gas molecules follow the molecules at the front as they expand out and all the molecules behind all the way to the back of the container are all expanding slowly and all being a resistance to the molecules in front,
 creating a massive resistance externally against opposite resistance of atmosphere

The gas inside the rocket expands out naturally ...
The gas inside the rocket expands out, it does not equally kick back into the rocket to push the other way.
This does not answer the question at all.
I have asked what the gas is pushing against to move.
Telling me the gas is expanding is no better than just saying the gas leaves the rocket.
it does not tell me what the gas is pushing against to allow it to move.

A gauge will clearly explain why this is the case, which I've tried to explain in as much detail as I can.
No, as clearly discussed previously, the gauge still shows a pressure while the gas would leave a container, indicating the gas is still pushing on the container.

The gas molecules follow the molecules at the front as they expand out and all the molecules behind all the way to the back of the container are all expanding slowly and all being a resistance to the molecules in front
Again, if this is the case and these gas molecules can provide the resistance necessary for motion, why can't they do so for the rocket?

atmosphere
This is not a discussion of the atmosphere. This is a discussion of rockets in a vacuum.
Are you trying to answer my question regarding gas in a tube in a vacuum? If so, what does the atmosphere have to do with it?

No wonder you are confused and no wonder you can't grasp anything I'm saying.
I'm being serious here, put your mind to it and you might just start to realise what's what.
You are yet to demonstrate in any way that I am confused or not grasping what you say.
Instead I have clearly explained why it is wrong.

If it really was that extra push into the atmosphere then all suction cups should start working together. Instead, one working or not has no bearing on the others.
This shows you are not changing the external atmosphere in any significant way.

If you don't have the sand under the ball then the sand under that ball has to be with the sand on top of it and around it, right?
Nope, it is in the other container you were pouring the sand in from.
It was never put into the system.

The air pressure is being more compressed by that pair of clamped hemispheres by what was allowed out to be added to the pressure back on them.
If that was the case you would see that change in everything, not just these hemispheres. The atmospheric pressure would increase, and all spheres would work or not work at once.
The fact that this doesn't happen shows that it has nothing to do with the air that was originally inside.
Instead it is just the absence of the air inside, and more importantly, the presence of the air outside.

Start learning because I'm not backtracking.

How is it pushing equally in all directions?
Basically equal resistance overall.

But in your example, you're saying the sand is pushing down on the cup. How is the sand pushing sideways or up?
If I was to pour sand over you as you were stood up, first it would build up around you, right? Each build up layer around you would be s stack.
As that stack builds, you will feel it pushing against you as your body resists that push all around you whilst it builds by stacking.
Eventually it goes above your head and still stacks all around. Up and up and up it goes and you are now a fair distance under that stacked up sand as well as encased in a mass of it around you.

The sand above your head is applying lots of pressure to it but your feet are resisting that pressure, coupled with your body being squeezed all around. It's a sort of push alla round but equally a resistance to all that pushing by the actual body.
All around is basically equal. Above is unequal because of the amount but is offset by the feet using a more solid base to counteract that push down as you resist that push by pushing into it to stop it crushing you and using your feet as your leverage.

I'm sure you can accept this.


Now this would be normal atmospheric conditions for us if it was atmosphere instead of the sand analogy.
Place a half tennis ball under that condition but ensuring the half ball was filled with sand, you wouldn't crush it in terms of volume but you would clamp the skin of it which would be equally resisted by the sand inside against the inner skin.
An equal resistance.

No outside sand can get in because it's full of sand.
However, if you use force to push away the sand around that  ball by pushing on that ball to push out the sand within it, you now create a excess pressure upon that ball as the sand above fills the delve you made in that ball which clamps it to the ground as the sand you pushed out is also pushing back with equal force around the half ball.

You need to seriously engage your mind to it.
Maybe it's too logical or simple for you.
Maybe you're trying to go down the mainstream scientific route to figure it out and are causing yourself numerous issues.

Don't give me the old "one or two word response" garbage.
Pay more attention to the massive explanations I've given.
I'm actually taking time to answer you. Time for you to pout some real effort in to understand because you clearly aren't, whether that's deliberate or not, I'm not too sure.
I have paid attention to the explanations you provide. You repeatedly refuse to address the actual issue at hand.
I have repeatedly explained why, but you just ignore it. Time for you to put some real effort in to understand because you clearly aren't, whether that's deliberate or not, I'm not too sure.

The gas inside the rocket expands out naturally ...
The gas inside the rocket expands out, it does not equally kick back into the rocket to push the other way.
This does not answer the question at all.
I have asked what the gas is pushing against to move.
Telling me the gas is expanding is no better than just saying the gas leaves the rocket.
it does not tell me what the gas is pushing against to allow it to move.

A gauge will clearly explain why this is the case, which I've tried to explain in as much detail as I can.
No, as clearly discussed previously, the gauge still shows a pressure while the gas would leave a container, indicating the gas is still pushing on the container.

The gas molecules follow the molecules at the front as they expand out and all the molecules behind all the way to the back of the container are all expanding slowly and all being a resistance to the molecules in front
Again, if this is the case and these gas molecules can provide the resistance necessary for motion, why can't they do so for the rocket?

atmosphere
This is not a discussion of the atmosphere. This is a discussion of rockets in a vacuum.
Are you trying to answer my question regarding gas in a tube in a vacuum? If so, what does the atmosphere have to do with it?

No wonder you are confused and no wonder you can't grasp anything I'm saying.
I'm being serious here, put your mind to it and you might just start to realise what's what.
You are yet to demonstrate in any way that I am confused or not grasping what you say.
Instead I have clearly explained why it is wrong.

If it really was that extra push into the atmosphere then all suction cups should start working together. Instead, one working or not has no bearing on the others.
This shows you are not changing the external atmosphere in any significant way.

If you don't have the sand under the ball then the sand under that ball has to be with the sand on top of it and around it, right?
Nope, it is in the other container you were pouring the sand in from.
It was never put into the system.

The air pressure is being more compressed by that pair of clamped hemispheres by what was allowed out to be added to the pressure back on them.
If that was the case you would see that change in everything, not just these hemispheres. The atmospheric pressure would increase, and all spheres would work or not work at once.
The fact that this doesn't happen shows that it has nothing to do with the air that was originally inside.
Instead it is just the absence of the air inside, and more importantly, the presence of the air outside.
I'd like to ask ordinary logical people if I'm explaining this as to what you ask. I don't mean globalists, I mean logical people, because I need to know if you either can't grasp what I'm saying or are refusing to grasp it because you can clearly see what I'm saying.


Anyone willing to help me out here?

I'm looking for flat/alternate thinkers to tell me if you grasp what's been said and whether you think I've explained properly to JackBlack.

Your denP theory of air pushing down has no way to magically changed to pushing sideways.
It doesn't just push down. You need to pay more attention.
Start learning because I'm not backtracking.

How is it pushing equally in all directions?
Basically equal resistance overall.

But in your example, you're saying the sand is pushing down on the cup. How is the sand pushing sideways or up?
If I was to pour sand over you as you were stood up, first it would build up around you, right? Each build up layer around you would be s stack.
As that stack builds, you will feel it pushing against you as your body resists that push all around you whilst it builds by stacking.
Eventually it goes above your head and still stacks all around. Up and up and up it goes and you are now a fair distance under that stacked up sand as well as encased in a mass of it around you.

It would be more of a mound on top of me, like a pyramid, so to speak. With less sand circling my shoulders than the widest amount circling my feet. As well, there's nothing pushing the sand in from the sides, just from the top.

So there you go. Rockets do not and cannot and will not ever work in a space vacuum because one cannot exist for starters.
Rockets cannot work in extreme low pressure environments because they absolutely do require an external resistive force to act against the gas expansion coming from the rocket in how I explained.

What does this mean?

It means one hell of a lot.
It means we've been duped since fantasy space rocketry was dreamed up and put out as a supposed physical reality for us all to watch on our TV's and radio listening, plus launched missiles to cater for the supposed space rocket launches, as well as gimmicks...most likely models and what not, or helium filled effigies passed off as real space rockets.

It also means the Earth cannot be a spinning ball.
It also means gravity is a lie.
It also means we are encased inside our own little prison of a flattish Earth with a dome covering.
We are basically in a cell.

Everything we see and touch is all part of this very same cell.
All that we can see and can't touch are all part of the holographic show the centre of this cell produces.


However, the crux of this topic is rockets not being able to fly in a vacuum.

The reasons for it are simple if people care to put their logical minds to it.

I'd like to ask ordinary logical people if I'm explaining this as to what you ask.
I wouldn't call myself extraordinary, but I certainly call myself logical.

because I need to know if you either can't grasp what I'm saying or are refusing to grasp it because you can clearly see what I'm saying.
Again, I grasp what you are saying quite clearly.
The issue is if you are grasping what I am saying.

Again, a key part of your objection to the reality of rockets working in space is that you claim that the rocket needs something to push against.
But if this was the case and that acceleration requires something to push against and it isn't there for the rocket, it also isn't there for the gas and thus there is nothing for the gas to push against to leave the rocket.
This means the gas would be trapped in the rocket without any way to leave.

This is why I asked what the gas is pushing against, because you claim that objects needs something to push against/use as leverage to move.

Anything you provide as a solution to the gas works equally well for the rocket (or has an equivalent that does).
Anything you provide falls into one of three categories:
1 - Itself. This rejects the claim that you need something external to push against. This means the rocket can push against itself and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
2 - The rocket. This means that the gas is pushing on the rocket and thus the rocket will move and thus work in a vacuum.
3 - Something else. This means there is something else which both the rocket and the gas can use as leverage and thus rockets work in a vacuum.

That is the problem you seem to fail to grasp.

Either rockets work in a vacuum or the gas remains trapped in an open container.

In order to explain you need to say just what the gas is pushing against and also explain why that doesn't then mean that rockets work in a vacuum as the above would indicate.

That is why saying "itself" or "the gas" isn't an answer/explanation. Because that would lead to rockets working in a vacuum, thus refuting your claim.
And that is also why saying "it expands" or "it can't stay in" or the like isn't an answer/explanation. Because that isn't telling us what the gas is pushing against.

In order to be consistent you either have rockets work in a vacuum or gas remain magically trapped in an open container.

So there you go. Rockets do not and cannot and will not ever work in a space vacuum because one cannot exist for starters.
You wanting a vacuum to be a perfect vacuum doesn't negate the existence of real vacuums.

Rockets cannot work in extreme low pressure environments because they absolutely do require an external resistive force to act against the gas expansion coming from the rocket in how I explained.
Which would also mean that the gas needs an external resistive force to act against.

What does this mean?
What does this mean?
It means as I said above, either rockets work in a vacuum or the gas remains trapped.

Either the rocket and gas need something external to both to resist to act against in order to move, or they don't.

What does this mean?
You are rejecting reality and trying to reject rockets to prop up that rejection of reality, because if you accept that rockets do work in a vacuum, then why think we have been duped? Why not then accept the photos from space as there is nothing stopping them being real.

It also means the Earth cannot be a spinning ball.
There is no logical connection here at all.

That would be like saying because the Simpsons is fake, Trump is fake.


However, the crux of this topic is rockets not being able to fly in a vacuum.
The reasons for it are simple if people care to put their logical minds to it.
Yes, that is the crux of this topic.
However the reasons for the refutation of that claim are simple if people care to put their logical minds to it.
Again, in order for rockets to not be able to work in a vacuum one would need to claim that gas will remain trapped in an open container exposed to a vacuum.

It seems you have lost whatever logical bearing you may have had left. Case in point, the earth as a spinning ball and gravity bits were figured out long before the whole rocketry in a vacuum thing. Considering there's no evidence of a dome and all evidence to the contrary regarding some sort of holographic-ness, what you think it means is just that, what you think. Just your musings. No evidence.

What you've asked is for people to put their logical minds to your musings and all logic and evidence has been shown to defy your musings. I mean seriously, something as simple as a pressure gauge you ask of people the world over to abandon how they are designed, manufactured, and used to satisfy your musings? That's not logic, that's narcissism. Not to mention, as shown over and over again, to be wildly incorrect.

As for rockets in a vacuum, as Jack has laid out 100 times, "In order to be consistent you either have rockets work in a vacuum or gas remain magically trapped in an open container."

And thars the point we re trying to make.
You contradict yourself.

In all directions - contradicts yoyr theory that an opening in a tube says the gases cease to push on the inside of the tube.

Suction - exisrs as a negative pressure, using the proper and conventional definition of the word, as in the opposite of positive. 
Your theory is bonkers when you tried to redefine a well understood term and decided you werent going to tell any one else for 10pg.

Not just down - what do you mean not just down!?   Your whole denP is that air pushes people down.  If denP air is suddenly able to push left right up down then how are we able to walk around?   
Eveeytime i move forward I should be pushed backwards.
Aah but then one might say maybe that my leftward denP displacement csncels my rightward?
No sorry, then suction cups cease to work and so does your down.

Backtracking - its not backtracking, as jackB continuds to point out, you havent answered any questions except to continue parrot "gas on gas".

No
It exactly shows conventional physics is correct and that gases apply pressure in ALL DIRECTIONS.
I know they apply pressure in all directions. Have you actually bothered to take any notice of what's been said?

Quote from: Themightykabool
The seal prevents air from pushing up and euqalling or cancelling out the pressure from the other side.
No. The seal prevents air from pushing back into the cup, not up.

Quote from: Themightykabool
Thats why a suction cup can be applied down onto a piece of glass, that glass can be picked up and changed from horizontal to vertical.
There's no such thing as suction. Nothing sucks.
Pressure is applied in all directions depending on where the cup is placed at any point in the stack and onto a solid surface and then having air pushed out of that cup.
Quote from: Themightykabool
Your denP theory of air pushing down has no way to magically changed to pushing sideways.
It doesn't just push down. You need to pay more attention.

Correct, externally.... in direct opposition to the gases coming from the rocket.

Quote from: JackBlack
But if this was the case and that acceleration requires something to push against and it isn't there for the rocket, it also isn't there for the gas and thus there is nothing for the gas to push against to leave the rocket.
This means the gas would be trapped in the rocket without any way to leave.
It wouldn't if the pressure outside of the rocket was equal to the pressure inside of it.

However (pay attention to this) if gas is super compressed into the rocket,as in what we know of compressed air/gas containers, then....just like compressing a spring....if you release that spring it will decompress on it's own, just like each molecule of gas will decompress on its own.....but seeing as they are tightly packed and there is no free space between them, they decompress by using each other as the resistance to keep pushing out of the container or rocket and it's this gas on accumulation that aids in the push into the atmospheric resistance waiting at the open valve, which gets compressed and then decompresses back, like a spring going backwards and forwards as long as energy is applied.

The only thing your rocket walls are doing, inside, is holding the molecules as they expand out. The molecules are not pushing the rocket from inside, the rocket merely rests on the gases outside and is pushed up by the crash of those gases on gases outside for as long as that gas crash continues to be able to hold that mass, which it does because the rocket loses mass of gas which allows this.

Pretty simple but you're struggling to grasp it....clearly.

Quote from: JackBlack
This is why I asked what the gas is pushing against, because you claim that objects needs something to push against/use as leverage to move.

And now you know (which you should have earlier by being explained to)...but somehow I doubt you'll bother to grasp it and simply come back with " yes but what's happenings to the gas."

Logical you are not.

However (pay attention to this) if gas is super compressed into the rocket,as in what we know of compressed air/gas containers, then....just like compressing a spring....if you release that spring it will decompress on it's own
Stop focusing on compression/decompression, it is just avoiding the issue.

A spring will decompress due to the force acting upon it.
Each section of the spring pushes against the connecting parts.
This leads to one of 2 options:
Either the spring has nothing around it and just expands, while the centre remains in the same location; or there is something against it and the spring pushes it. The spring moves one way while the other object moves the other way.

they decompress by using each other as the resistance to keep pushing out of the container
That means the gas can be used as resistance.
That means the rocket can use the gas as resistance and push against it.
That means that rockets work in a vacuum.

atmospheric
Again, stop talking about the atmosphere.
This is meant to be a discussion of rockets in a vacuum.

The only thing your rocket walls are doing, inside, is holding the molecules as they expand out. The molecules are not pushing the rocket from inside
Again, if that was the case, the gas can't leave.

Pretty simple but you're struggling to grasp it....clearly.
While it is extremely simple, you are the one clearly struggling to grasp it or knowingly misrepresenting it.

Quote from: JackBlack
This is why I asked what the gas is pushing against, because you claim that objects needs something to push against/use as leverage to move.
And now you know
No, you are still no closer to an explanation.
You still ignore the motion of the gas and the requirement that that pushes against something and the logical consequences of that being applied to the rocket; and you still try to conflate a vacuum and the atmosphere.

Again, cut out all the garbage and just address the issue:
You have a tube in a vacuum with one end open and the tube full of compressed gas.
What happens?
If the gas moves out of the tube, HOW?
What is it pushing against?
If it is pushing against the gas that means the gas in the tube is capable of acting as resistance for motion/leverage and thus the rocket can use it to move.
If it can't, then the only options you have are for the gas to push against the rockets, and thus rockets work in a vacuum; or to have it push against itself, and thus objects can push themselves to move and thus rockets work in a vacuum; or the gas remains trapped.

If you want to claim there is another option you need to clearly identify what the gas is pushing against and why this can be used as leverage for the gas, but not the rocket.

Just asserting the gas isn't pushing the rocket doesn't address this at all.

Again, all of this is very simple and clearly shows you are wrong.
You just don't want to accept that because accepting rockets work in a vacuum brings down your entire fantasy.

AAAH and we re back to the contradiction that you keep affirming doesnt exist.

The denP force transfer as described by scepti goes as follows (water rocket):

Foundation
Water
Exiting gas
Inside gas
-
-
Rocket.


Theres a gap because you just repeated a claim that the gas inside the tubing isnt pushing the rocket up.
Because you claim gas only pushing in ONE directiom towards the opening.
Pay attention.

A spring will decompress due to the force acting upon it.
Each section of the spring pushes against the connecting parts.
This leads to one of 2 options:
Either the spring has nothing around it and just expands, while the centre remains in the same location; or there is something against it and the spring pushes it. The spring moves one way while the other object moves the other way.
The compressed spring will decompress from the very place it is allowed to and continue to decompress all the way to the other end. It will not push into the other end. It will follow the decompression from the other end and back to that end, meaning the force is one way only.....unless it hits a barrier.
Guess what that barrier is?


So basically your space rocket is nothing more than a fantasy. A good story but a story of fiction.

It's not avoiding the issue, it is the issue.
No, I have made it quite clear what the issue is.
According to you, the rocket cannot work in a vacuum as there is nothing for it to push off.
But that applies to the gas as well.
Thus the key issue here is what the gas is pushing off to allow it to move and why this doesn't mean the rocket can work as well.

Talking about compression/decompression is avoiding the issue as it is not telling us what the gas is pushing off.

In order to address the issue you need to tell us what the gas is pushing off to allow it to exit the rocket.

If what you are saying is true, and there is nothing to push off (so the rocket can't move) then the gas can't move and it remains trapped in the tube, exposed to a vacuum.

It will not push into the other end.
Repeating the same nonsense wont help you.
This is the exact same issue.
If the spring is not pushing against the other end, THEN IT CAN'T MOVE! That means it remains trapped in the tube.
As you have stated before, in order for an object to move it needs to push against something, using it as leverage.
That means it is going to pushing against the tube.

It is the same issue as before.
Either it pushes against the tube and thus rockets work in a vacuum or it remains trapped.

To say it exists the tube without pushing on it is saying it can move without needing something to push against, directly rejecting your claim for why rockets can't work in a vacuum.

Your own argument against rockets working in a vacuum demands (for consistency) that the gas can't leave the tube nor could a spring, because neither have something to use as leverage.
The only ways to be consistent and have the gas/spring leave are to either reject that claim and say things can move with nothing to push against, which would mean the rocket can work in a vacuum; admit the gas/spring would push against the tube, meaning rockets work in a vacuum; or claim there is something to push against and allow motion and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
i.e. the only options are to accept rockets work in a vacuum or to have the gas and spring remain magically trapped.

This is the same issue you have been avoiding ever since it was brought up.


Again, if you want to actually address the issue then stop with all this expansion/decompression nonsense and tell us what the gas is pushing against and why this doesn't mean the rocket can work as well.

Withou that push no molecues would exit, and that push unavoidably causes the reaction push.

I understand that it requires a force to accelerate a mass and that force can be the thrust of a rocket.
The huge mass of the propellant is accelerated before it leaves the rocket so no outside barrier or "resistance" is required. It's so simple a child could understand it!

You mean how we stick to reality and verifiable models rather than accept your self-contradictory, unsubstantiated nonsense?

We listen to outside views. That doesn't mean we just accept whatever is said.
Your complete inability to answer a very simple question which destroys your claims shows quite clearly that the issue is not us not wanting to listen and instead it is entirely your inability to defend your nonsense.

Meanwhile, you actually describe yourself fairly well, with how you rigidly stick to your pure nonsense and reject any alternative even though you can provide no argument against it.

Understand why this does what it does and you'll start to understand why your space rocket doesn't work.
Try again, with an actual understanding of how it works you will understand how a space rocket works.

Again, you have completely ignored the question and the key issue for this thread.

The reason is quite obvious. YOU HAVE NO ANSWER!
You know that either rockets work in a vacuum or the gas needs to be trapped by pure magic.
You can't handle that so you just avoid, avoid, avoid.

The question and issue is really very simple, yet you continue to avoid it.
Again, you claim that a rocket can't work in a vacuum because it has nothing to push off.
If that was the case then the gas cannot exit the tube, because it has nothing to push off.

So either accept your claim is wrong and that either things don't need to push off something, or there is something in the vacuum to push off; or admit that your model requires gases to remain trapped inside open containers.

If you wish to disagree then tell us what the gas is pushing off and why that doesn't mean rockets work in a vacuum.

But they can fly in the atmosphere, that's how they get to space. And the reason they don't plummet back down is because the acceleration provided by the rocket launch keeps the spaceship mobile. As they're in 0 gravity, they float there. Gravity does not act on the object as it is either moving to fast for the force to get a hold of it or it has already reached a low enough orbit not to fall back into the Earth. Remember, gravity is one of the weakest natural forces in existence, and is the reason life is possible on this planet; if it was too strong, it would crush us and the pressure from the above atmosphere would be emmensely overpowering and it would make it extremely difficult to move but if it was too weak, the atmosphere would escape from the planet and we would be unable to breathe (much like what has happened on the moon).

That cup is not clamped as tight because it is a weak structure, meaning the air inside it is already small in terms of psi.
This means the spring can push the atmosphere away from it, resulting in the uncoiling.

You said rockets work on a recoil type of action. Basically kicking themselves up from inside with zero help externally.

Clearly you don't get it. And pretending you do only sets you back further.
No, clearly we DO get it, and realise your model is nonsense.
Pretending no one gets it and your model is fine only sets you back further.

How about you stop with the insults and start with the explanation, or if you can't explain it, just admit you are wrong?

What you're all saying is not what my theory is so you're all wrong.
You don't have a theory. You have wild speculation supported by nothing.
What we are saying regarding your model is based entirely upon what you have said.

Again, you claim that rockets cannot work in a vacuum because they don't have anything to push off (/use as leverage/resistance/wahtever) and without something to push off things can move.
But if that is the case, that things do need something external to push off, and there is no such thing in a vacuum, then the same applies to the gas. That means the gas would be unable to leave the rocket/tube as there is nothing for it to push off.

Again, if you want to honestly claim we don't get it or what we are saying isn't based upon your model you need to address this massive problem of yours.

Again, either the rocket works, or the gas can't leave.
You are yet to even attempt to provide an alternative. Doing so requires telling us what the gas is pushing off and why that doesn't meant the rocket works as well.

You said rockets work on a recoil type of action. Basically kicking themselves up from inside with zero help externally.
No, I have never said that. That has repeatedly been your strawman as you can't actually attack how rockets really work.
However you have come close to saying the gas basically kicks itself up from the inside with zero help externally.

Again, there are 2 simple ways to think about it.
One is similar to recoil. The rocket expels gas at a high speed and the rocket recoils in response to that.
That is not the rocket kicking itself, that is the rocket "kicking away" the gas.
The other way, which provides more detail is that the gas inside the rocket exerts pressure in all directions. This is accelerates the gas closer to the edge in one direction and accelerates the rocket (and gas closer to the rocket) in the other direction.

No "kicking themselves up".

In fact you people go on about external atmosphere being a massive hindrance to the rocket.
No, I have never said it is a hindrance. And for everyone who actually understands how rockets actually work it doesn't beggar belief at all.

A simple pop up spring easily shows your space rockets to be nonsense.
It also clearly shows why my gauge argument is correct.
No, it shows nothing of the sort.
It works entirely with conventional physics.

If you really think it does, why don't you explain how?

Or better yet, why don't you address my question which clearly shows your claims to be pure nonsense.

Again, what is the gas pushing off?

Sets me back from where?

We already established that the portion that exits wouldn't go anywhere without force.
We also established that every force has opposite reaction force of the same intensity.

Now you are trying to tell us that pushing portion of gas out won't produce the back push of the rocket off that portion?

You get a small portion of it then totally lose it.

You had a whole thing about "push on push" and now it's an "expand on no push". What are we to think?
No it's not. It's the inability of people like yourself to grasp it or decide to twist it all to suit yourselves.
Carry on doing it but smart logical people will get it.

Oh, I do get it.
Better than you would like.
And I'm pointing out the difference between your wishes and the reality.

In your wishes the exiting molecules get out without force.
In reality thet get pushed out by force (there is no push without force).

In your wishes they accelerate outwards without resisting the force that pushes them.
In reality EVERY force gets reaction, including the force that pushes those molecules out.
Clearly you don't get it. And pretending you do only sets you back further.

Sets me back from where?

We already established that the portion that exits wouldn't go anywhere without force.
We also established that every force has opposite reaction force of the same intensity.

Now you are trying to tell us that pushing portion of gas out won't produce the back push of the rocket off that portion?
Of course it has back push but on the gas. On the gas. On the gas....not the rocket interior.

Can you grasp this?

something has to push on the rocket.
i think that's what everyone's trying to tell you.
you keep saying the interior is not pushing on the rocket.
but you have a disjoint.

if the force arrows that shoot the water rocket up goes as follows (using denP terms):

foundation->regular air->water->decompressing air->interior air at high compression->rocket

but you claim the last two doesn't happen.
that's the problem.

at 0.04 the spring is fully compressed storing its potential energy.
at 0.05 the finger is removed releasing the energy stored in the spring,
at 0.06 the spring cannot push down the board, so it pushes the head up, flying off the board.


But do you agree, what is happening with the spring Head?
The part above, yes.

In order for it to push the head up it has to have leverage. Something to push off, which it does, it has the plate under it, attached to it.
However, in order for that plate to make the spring jump into the air, it has to also have leverage for that plate.
The table provides this. That's the external leverage anything needs, whether it's a physical start by the end result of potential energy  against a solid base for leverage or compressing a gas/fluid to achieve the same result.
It's all about the ability to compress to create the biggest decompression for every object ready for motion.

You mean is is the ability of smart, logical people like us to grasp it and realise it contradicts itself.

Again, what is the gas pushing off?
Gas/fluid.
Which means you have the gas/fluid there for the rocket to push off and thus rockets work in a vacuum.

Again to actually address the issue you either need to admit that rockets do work in a vacuum; claim that the gases stay trapped in the tube open to vacuum; or explain what the gases push off and how that doesn't allow the rocket to move.

See, this is what I mean.
Smart logical people realise that if the rocket can't work because motion requires pushing against something to use as leverage and there is allegedly nothing there for the rocket to push off then the gas can't leave the rocket for the same reasons.
Smart logical people realise that that makes no sense at all as the gas must leave the tube which means the gas must be pushing against the rocket (or something) which that either the gas must push the rocket or their must be something else out there for the gas and rocket to be able to push against and thus rockets must work in a vacuum.

They are your only 2 options. Either both the gas and the rocket can move or neither can.
If you want to pretend there is a third option you will need far more than a few word answer.

If you want to say the gas is pushing off the gas/fluid, that means that there is something to push off in the vacuum of space and thus rockets can push off that and work in a vacuum.

Yes, I DO understand it, but I also understand more than you would like me to.

The gas is still expanding and transfering the pressure to the wals of the chamber.

When pushing the portion out, the remaining gas has support in the chamber walls and the force transfers whether we like it or not.

Hi, this is my first post.  I have been reading this and thought I would relate my experience of what I have seen and done. 
I won't go into how things, just that they do work.  I worked on the Joint Test Assembly(JTA) for the warhead of the MinutemanIII missile. 
The JTA is a warhead without any explosives.  We instrumented the JTA.  The JTA was equipped with telemetry that gave the height,
the velocity, and the distance it went until it splashed down near Kwajalien island.  We were in Vandenburg Air Force Base when they
launched the missile and we monitored the telemetry in real time.  The Minuteman has a range of about 6100 miles, velocity of 15,000 mph,
and a height of 700 miles.  I know these values to be correct because we are the ones that instrumented it and we monitored it in real time.

Now a little bit about vacuums.

I have also worked with vacuums in doing several things that would not work if there was not a very good vacuum.

1: Making metal hydrides
    I had to make metal hydrides from rare earths such as Yttrium.   We would get some Yttrium which is a metal and we would
   melt in an arc melter in a vacuum chamber.  If we did not have a good vacuum the metal would oxidize and we would not be
   able to introduce hydrogen to it.  I would calculate the amount hydrogen that would be introduced to the Yttrium to make a
   hydride of a certain concentration of YH2 or some other concentration of Hydrogen.  I would then place the Yttrium metal
   in a sealed container and put the proper amount of Hydrogen in a container of a known volume.  I would then evacuate all the
   air in the system using a fore pump and a diffusion pump to get a vacuum as close to zero as we could.  I then heated the
   container of the Yttriuim to a temperature of about 500 deg C.  When the temperature reached the correct value I would then open the
   container of Hydrogen which was not heated and let it react with the Yttrium to make the Hydride.  If we have any air other than a very small
   amount the Yttrium would not react with Hydrogen.

2: Superconducting magnet.
   I have also used superconducting magnets to make Nuclear Magnetic Resonance measurements on the Hydride that was made from #1
   above.  I used liquid Helium to cool the magnet and the Hydride sample.  Liquid He has a temperature of about 4.2 deg K. That is 4.2 deg
   above absolute zero.  We used a dewar(a fancy thermos bottle) that had an outer jacket, then a vacuum between it and the next jacket,
   then liquid nitrogen between it and the next jacket, then a vacuum between it and the final jacket.  After that would the magnet and it would
   be filled with liquid He.  If any one of those vacuums was not a good vacuum it would impossible to keep the liquid He boiling off rapidly and
   the magnet would not work.

I may not have explained it very well.  This happened in the seventies so I am writing this memory.  If anybody needs clarification I will try to
explain things better.
The bottom line is I am relating things that I did and saw which some say is all you can believe.  I could not have done any of those things if
there was no such thing as a vacuum.  I apologize if this is too long. Thanks for the opportunity to tell folks of my very real experiances.

The gas pushes on the gas/fluid. The rocket sits atop of it and simply rides on it.
If the rocket simply sat on top then there is no force on the rocket and it wouldn't go up.

If the gas is pushing on gas that means there is gas which can be used as leverage and thus rockets work in a vacuum.

Again, you will not have addressed the issue until you either admit rockets do work in a vacuum, claim the gas will magically remain trapped or tell us what the gas is pushing against and address why that doesn't mean the rocket will work as well as there is something to push against.


because the board is pushed up with you along for the ride.
Again, you have 2 options here, either way is defeat for you.
Either the board pushes you up and that is why you go up, or objects can magically without being pushed, directly contradicting your explanation for why rockets can't work in a vacuum.

I simply look to the logical people to understand what's being said and why rockets do not and cannot work in extreme low pressure.
No external pressure and zero work to happen because there's no resistance to exiting expanding gas to compress that external gas/atmosphere.
Your space is pointless for what you are told happens.

The pressure valve is spring loaded. It will only read pressure over the pressure it was designed in.
Lose the compression from a container back to normal conditions and your gauge reads zero. That zero can be called equalisation, meaning the air inside it is the same as the air outside of it, meaning it is under that pressure, meaning it cannot leave the container unless physically allowed to expand against external pressure by pushing that external pressure away and allowing that expansion to make the container into a lower pressure which would or could read a negative on a gauge of it was set up to do that.

No, you didn't. You repeatedly failed to explain it and instead repeatedly contradicted yourself, provided one or 2 word answers which in no way address the issue, or just went off on a tangent about expansion or the atmosphere to further try to confuse things, or just ignored it.

I simply look to the logical people to understand what's being said and why rockets do not and cannot work in extreme low pressure.
Cut the crap, you aren't looking for logical people, you are looking for gullible fools.
The logical people that think about it understand quite well that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

The only argument you have to claim they can't requires that gas remains trapped inside an open container.

The fact you are yet to address this issue and tell us what the gas is pushing against to leave the open container which doesn't allow the rocket to work shows this quite well.

Again, if you want to try to actually explain it you must address what the gas is using as leverage which isn't the rocket itself and which the rocket cannot use as leverage as well, explaining clearly why that is the case.

Again, there are really only 3 options:
1 - Itself. This means objects can push themselves to move so the rocket can push itself to move and not need any external resistance.
2 - The rocket. This means the gas is pushing the rocket and thus the rocket will work.
3 - Something else. This means there is something else out there in space to use as leverage and thus the rocket can use it and move.

Either way, the rocket works. The only other alternatives are to say you don't need anything at all to push against, which again means rockets can't work, or go back to your argument against rockets, where you claim you do need something to push against/use as leverage/resistance and there is no such thing in space so neither the rocket nor the gas can move.

That is the MASSIVE problem with your insane claim. In order for the gas to be able to leave the rocket, the rocket must work in a vacuum. Any argument presented against the ability of the rocket to function in a vacuum works equally well to the gas in the rocket.
So either rockets work in a vacuum or gas can be magically contained inside an open container exposed to a vacuum.

That is why logical people accept that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

There is therefore something obviously wrong with what you call "logical thought".
Try some logic applied to real experiments on the properties of gasses rather than your imagined ones might lead to a more realist conclusion.
You might learn a bit from this Gas Laws (http://chemistry.bd.psu.edu/jircitano/gases.html).
In there you'll find:
The Gas Laws: Pressure Volume Temperature Relationships:
Boyle's Law:  The Pressure-Volume Law
Boyle's law or the pressure-volume law states that the volume of a given amount of gas held at constant temperature varies inversely with the applied pressure when the temperature and mass are constant.
Charles' Law:  The Temperature-Volume Law
This law states that the volume of a given amount of gas held at constant pressure is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
Gay-Lussac's Law:  The Pressure Temperature Law
This law states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
Etc.

Pooh pooh as much as like but you cannot dream science up, you must do experiments to find out how things work.

There's a problem here. You claim that as the gas is escaping it's no longer pushing on the pressure gauge. But when you close the valve, the gas presses on the gauge and you get a pressure reading.
In all instances, according to your notion, a container can never be evacuated of ALL the pressurized gas because it needs some to push off of. So the last bits must stay behind, yet they are still pressurized. So when the valve is closed, there should still be some sort of pressure reading left.

If that was the case you would have been able to defend your nonsense with logical thought rather than evasion.
I have shown clearly how logical thought leads to the unavoidable conclusion that rockets must work in a vacuum.

Again, if you wish to claim they can't work, and be consistent you would need to claim high pressure gas remains trapped in an open tube exposed to vacuum.
Otherwise you need to explain what the gas is pushing off and why that doesn't mean rockets can work as well.

Until you can actually manage to address that, logic is not on your side.

Boyle's Law:  The Pressure-Volume Law
Boyle's law or the pressure-volume law states that the volume of a given amount of gas held at constant temperature varies inversely with the applied pressure when the temperature and mass are constant.
Charles' Law: The Temperature-Volume Law
This law states that the volume of a given amount of gas held at constant pressure is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
Gay-Lussac's Law:  The Pressure Temperature Law
This law states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
Etc.

Pooh pooh as much as like but you cannot dream science up, you must do experiments to find out how things work.
I'm not interested in what temperate difference containment meets.
I'm talking about a simple pressure fight of internal against external gases/fluid.

Simple as that.
Your vacuum provides zero or next to zero pressure resistance, so your rocket is not only not going to work in it, it's not going to exist in it because the vacuum cannot exist.

That's as simple as it gets.
Your rockets are good for the atmosphere. After that they're good for scrap.

There's a problem here. You claim that as the gas is escaping it's no longer pushing on the pressure gauge. But when you close the valve, the gas presses on the gauge and you get a pressure reading.
Only if there's gauge pressure inside the container as you close the valve, It will then stop expanding out of the valve and immediately be rendered equalised meaning it tries to expand against all sides.

 
Quote from: Stash
In all instances, according to your notion, a container can never be evacuated of ALL the pressurized gas because it needs some to push off of. So the last bits must stay behind, yet they are still pressurized.
Only against equal external pressure which the gauge itself is basically calibrated to.


 
Quote from: Stash
So when the valve is closed, there should still be some sort of pressure reading left.
The reading would be zero because the gauge will be set at 1 atmosphere and that atmosphere will be internal and external in an open valve and equalised container.

You've shown me nothing that means anything in reality.

Your vacuum provides zero or next to zero pressure resistance, so your rocket is not only not going to work in it
Again, if that was the case that means the gas can't leave it either.

You not liking the word vacuum and wanting to pretend something must be a perfect vacuum to be a vacuum doesn't negate the existence of vacuums.

All your baseless assertions that rockets can't work in a vacuum with absolutely no justification does not mean that they can't.

If you want simplicity it has already been provided for you, in several ways, and you just ignored it because it shows you are wrong.
The rocket pushes off the gas which means the gas goes one way and the rocket goes the other.
The gas exerts pressure outwards, but as it is not entirely contained by the rocket the force on the rocket is unbalanced and results in a force on the rocket.

Either way, rockets work in a vacuum.

Again, if the things need resistance to push off in order to move, then both the rocket and the gas need it. So either both can move or neither can.
So either rockets work in a vacuum or high pressure gas can be magically contained in an open container.

It is as simple as that.
Rockets work in a vacuum and you have nothing to show otherwise and can't address any simple questions that show your argument to be nonsense based upon wilful ignorance/contradictions.


If you wish to assert that rockets can't work and have it be in any way logical in a vacuum you NEED to address the massive issue with that claim that you have failed to do so for so long.
Tell us what the gas is pushing off which allows it to leave the rocket and why that doesn't mean that there is something for the rocket to use as leverage and push off to work in a vacuum.

Yeah, there is this huge gaping hole in the Sceptimatic notion - And JB has brought it up a million times. If the gas 'unfurls', expands, or whatever and pushes off itself when leaving the rocket it would be pushing the rocket as well.

When logical thought is applied it becomes pretty obvious as to why rockets cannot work in a so called vacuum.
Logic says that if there is no such thing as a vacuum, then space is not a vacuum, therefore rockets should work just fine in space.

Everuthing?

A portion of the gas in chamber, before it became exhaust, had the speed zero.
That portion also has non-zero mass.
To get out, the mass of the exhaust-to-be has to gain some speed.
To reach that speed it needs acceleration.
And for the acceleration it needs force.
The remaining gas inside gives that force as action, and receives reaction force from the exhaust-to-be.
The reaction force pushes the remaining gas in the opposite direction and gives it the proportional acceleration.
The remainin gas can't can't stay in place without support from something else.
That something else are the walls of the chamber that give action force to the remaining gas.
The remaining gas exerts the reaction force on the chamber.
In vacuum of space the chamber (and the whole rocket) has no support to resist that reaction and stay in place.
That's why the rocket can't stay where it was.

But you can't, because what you are saying is full of contradictions.

Force equals mass times acceleration means nothing unless you put it up against external atmosphere, then you have your force by internal verses external gaseous/fluid fight to accelerate your mass.

It doesn't work in your fictional vacuum and barely works in extreme low pressure and for a reason.

Only if there's gauge pressure inside the container as you close the valve, It will then stop expanding out of the valve and immediately be rendered equalised meaning it tries to expand against all sides.

If that were the case, like mentioned many times before, as soon as the valve is opened the gauge would literally drop to zero. It doesn't. It lowers in direct correspondence to the amount of gas/pressure released. If the valve is halfway open, the gauge will slowly go down. If the gauge is opened 3/4 of the way, the gauge will go down quicker, accordingly.
There's a direct correlation between how/what the gauge reads and the amount of and at what rate the gas is being released. The only way for that to occur is for the gas to still be pressing on the gauge. i.e., expansion. There's no other way around that fact I'm afraid.

Yes, it is quite hard for those trying to reject reality to find things which are legit.
Look at how hard it is for you, still not being able to answer a very simple question, all because you need to reject the conclusion of that question.


Simple common sense should tell anyone that rockets need an atmosphere in order to work.
Except as clearly shown by your repeated avoidance of a simple question, IT DOESN'T!
Instead, simple common sense shows that it isn't needed at all.

Gas, like I said.
Again, that doesn't address the issue.
You can't just say a single word like that. You need to explain how the gas can push off something when you claim there is nothing there to push off, which in facts means there is something there to push off, which means there is something there for the rocket to push off.

If the gas leaving the rocket is capable of using the gas inside the rocket as leverage, then why can't the rocket?

If you bothered to pay attention you wouldn't need to type so much and have it ignored.
You mean I would realise you have absolutely no interest in the truth and I would just stop posting because I know you will honestly address the issue as it shows you are completely wrong and you have absolutely no rational nor honest way out?
If so, no, I am quite aware of that.

Perhaps you should try paying attention to what the actual issue is and then address that?

Perhaps I should try another question?
Is there anything in space for things to push off to move, or will they be unable to move as there is nothing to push off?

Again you have the same impossible situation for your insane claims, if the former, that means rockets work. If the later, that means the gas can't leave the rocket.

Force equals mass times acceleration means nothing unless you put it up against external atmosphere
So you are saying the gas can't accelerate out of the rocket as there is no external atmosphere to push off?
So the lack of an atmosphere magically keeps high pressure gas trapped inside an open container exposed to the vacuum?

Again, if simple common sense indicated that rockets can't work in a vacuum you should easily be able to address this issue, but you can't. Instead you just repeatedly contradict yourself by claiming the rocket can't accelerate in a vacuum because there is nothing to push off and there is no atmosphere, but the gas magically finds a way and pushes of something and manages to accelerate even though there is no atmosphere.

Again, you can't have it both ways.
Either rockets work in space, or gas stays trapped in an open container. Which is it?

If I run on my own (unlike gas in chamber), my feet would push the floor backwards.

Is there sponge in the room to push me out through that door, or I run out on my own?
You run at it on your own, under your own energy.

Explain what would happen.

If I run on my own, I can decide not to. :)

If I run on my own (unlike gas in chamber), my feet would push the floor backwards.
If the room is fixed to the ground, room floor (and the whole room) would have support and wouldn't move.
If the room was at some boat, it would move backward with momentum equal to
my momentum forward, minus the water drag.

Door opened or closed have no influence. (Rocket apperture and nozzle are always open.)

After I go through the door I could decide if I will keep running those 10 feet across the dirt in front.
From that point on, my movement has no further influence on the room.

If I later run into the sponge, it would compress where my body hits it.
I knew it was a complete waste of time with you but I gave you a shot.

Because after all this time you still haven't grasped what I put forward.
No, we grasp it quite well, we just realise it is pure nonsense.

Not accepting your BS doesn't mean we don't grasp it.

It does.
The only way for it to address the issue is if you accept that it means that there is something to use as leverage/push against and thus that rockets can work in a vacuum.

If you disagree, then it doesn't address the issue at all.
Again, you need to explain how the gas can move while the rocket can't.
You need to identify what the gas is pushing against and clearly explain why that doesn't allow the rocket to move.

Again, there are really only 4 options:
1 - Nothing - As you assert in your argument against rockets working, there is absolutely nothing to push against and thus the gas CANNOT move.
2 - Itself - This means your argument is wrong, and the rocket can push against itself to move and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
3 - The rocket - This means the gas is pushing against the rocket and thus the rocket will move and thus rockets work in a vacuum.
4 - Something else - This means there is something that both the gas and the rocket can push against to move and thus rockets work in a vacuum.

Again, it all boils down to 2 options:
Rockets work in a vacuum or the gas is magically trapped in an open container.
Which is it?

There's a problem here. You claim that as the gas is escaping it's no longer pushing on the pressure gauge. But when you close the valve, the gas presses on the gauge and you get a pressure reading.
Only if there's gauge pressure inside the container as you close the valve, It will then stop expanding out of the valve and immediately be rendered equalised meaning it tries to expand against all sides.

Again, this is where your musing fails. Gas doesn't just stop expanding in all directions because you create an opening at one end of a container. If that were the case, like mentioned many times before, as soon as the valve is opened the gauge would literally drop to zero. It doesn't. It lowers in direct correspondence to the amount of gas/pressure released. If the valve is halfway open, the gauge will slowly go down. If the gauge is opened 3/4 of the way, the gauge will go down quicker, accordingly.
There's a direct correlation between how/what the gauge reads and the amount of and at what rate the gas is being released. The only way for that to occur is for the gas to still be pressing on the gauge. i.e., expansion. There's no other way around that fact I'm afraid.
Because after all this time you still haven't grasped what I put forward. You simply haven't and you can sit and argue that you have all day long. You cannot grasp what I'm telling you. If that's deliberate then fair enough but it's your time you're wasting by playing this game.
If you genuinely don't get it then you need to pay more attention.

It's not that I haven't 'grasped' what you've put forward. It's just that what you've put forward fails to make sense in reality. How would the gauge go down at the speed corresponding with how much the valve is opened if there was nothing pressing on the gauge?

If I open the valve all the way the gauge will go down faster than if I open the valve only halfway. How does the gauge know to make that corresponding adjustment if there's nothing pressing on the gauge to cause a reading? Because, you know, that's how the millions of pressure gauges in the world work.

Not to any sane, logical person.
To them it looks like you are still avoiding very simple questions and issues which show your claims to be nothing more than fantasy.

So far all you have done amounts to nothing more than just baselessly asserting that rockets don't work in a vacuum.
You are yet to substantiate your claim in any way.
In fact, you have directly contradicted your own arguments rockets not working in space.


If you want to honestly and rationally claim that rockets cannot work in a vacuum then you need to deal with the issue you have been avoiding since it was brought up.
Again, do you accept that if you have a tube of compressed gas, in a vacuum, with one end open that the gas will leave the tube?
If so, as you claim that such motion is impossible in space as there is no atmosphere to push off, just how is the gas leaving? What is it pushing off which magically works for the gas but not the rocket?

Dismiss these argument which show you have no case at all, just further shows you have no case.

Because the pressure inside is decreasing faster.
If the gas wasn't still pushing on the gauge, how quickly the gas left wouldn't matter.


Most of it but not all of it.
Which means your prior claims about motion in this vacuum are completley wrong as if they were true, it couldn't leave.

Quote from: JackBlack

It's own expansion from being compressed, like I told you.
You mean like you have repeatedly avoided the issue?
"its own expansion" doesn't tell me what it is pushing off.
Nor does it tell me how it and only it manages to move without the atmosphere.

Again, either there is no atmosphere and nothing to push against so nothing can move, or your claims about rockets not working are pure garbage.

Again, in order to actually address the issue you need to tell us what the gas is pushing off and why that doesn't mean the rocket has something to push off.

I've not only not dismissed them I've told you enough times already. It's you that dismisses them and is why you generally get very little answers when you repeat the same thing.
Telling me you have dismissed them doesn't help either.
You need to actually refute them.
You need to deal with the issues raised.

I haven't dismissed what you have said, I have refuted it.

The reason I generally get very little answers from you is because you cannot answer as the question shows a fundamental flaw with your argument and you don't care about the truth or having a model which can actually describe reality.
So instead all you provide are pathetic non-answers or you otherwise avoiding the issue.

Why don't you try providing an honest, rational answer for once?

Again, is there nothing to push against in the vacuum meaning the rocket can't move? If so, the same applies to the gas and thus the gas can't leave the tube.
In order for the gas to be able to leave the tube it needs something to push against, which means there is something to push against, even in a vacuum, and thus rockets can work in a vacuum.

If the gas wasn't still pushing on the gauge, how quickly the gas left wouldn't matter.


When the container is sealed the gas is in equal compression, meaning each gas molecule is compressed and trying to expand against each other....but can't because there's no opening for expansion.

The gauge spring is also compressed and this shows on the needle. It's positively pushed against.

However, once that valve is opened, the gas immediately at the valve opening expands out against the external environment and every other gas inside starts to expand in a chain reaction towards that valve opening.
The gauge spring is not positively pushed against as this happens. The gauge spring now does what the gas is doing in following that chain reaction which is why you see the gauge needle drop as long as that valve remains open.
If you open that valve a little then the needle will fall a little because the spring is not positively pushed agaiuned, it's now expanding itself with the gas flow of expansion.

The result is, no positive force is pushed in the opposite direction to the valve opening.

Put this mindset towards a rocket and it's clear to see why rockets do not work on the principle of internal push, because there is zero positive push.

It means something has to be a resistance to that consistent flow coming from the valve/nozzle and we have it. It's called ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE.

Now let's make this clear.
You can happily go against this as you obviously will. That's fine. Just accept that I will not be changing my mind and also accept that this is my explanation and everytime you ask me the same question and then telling me I haven't explained, I'll cut out everything of your post and answer one or two words.

What's the gauge spring pushing faster against?
Let me try and make this easier. (I'm absolutely sure you'll have difficulty in this and skew it)

Imagine a bath with a pressure gauge on it that, as you fill the bath the gauge reacts to the air pressure in the pipe as the water is pushing that air up and compressing it against the gauge needle.
I'm sure you can understand this.

Ok, you fill the bath and the gauge needle says it's full because the air inside the tube is now compressed enough to keep that gauge at that full point because the gauge spring can't push the air away and the air cannot compress any more because the dense water has stopped pushing that air. We now have a sealed unit where there is a POSITIVE pressure on that gauge spring and that gauge spring has a positive push due to it being compressed and storing potential energy but is reliant on it being allowed to be expanded.


Now pull the plug out and think of this as opening a valve.
Once that water starts to go out of the plug hole, so does the compressed air expand out of the tube and gauge and the gauge spring decompresses in following that. No positive pressure is applied to the spring. The spring is now applying the positive pressure behind the air as it turns that potential energy into energy by being allowed to expand that spring, which means you see the pointer drop.

There is zero positive pressure in the opposite direction to the plug hole/valve/nozzle.

Nope, still doesn't work. When the valve is opened, the gauge goes down in accordance with how fast the pressure is being released. Open the valve more, the gauge goes down faster, open it less, the gauge goes down slower. I'm sure you understand this.

There must be some pressure resistance on the gauge that tells the gauge at what speed it needs to go down. Otherwise, the gauge would immediately drop to zero regardless of whether the valve was opened fully, partially or somewhere in between. I'm sure you understand this.

You realize that how you want pressure gauges to work is not how any pressure gauges work the world over? Now pressure gauges are part of our indoctrinated sheep-like populace conspiracy? At a certain point you have to face at least some simple, rudimentary facts. I mean c'mon.

So how does the gauge know to go down at the speed in accordance to the amount of pressure being released? None of your explanations address this.

Rambling off the same nonsense with your false definitions doesn't help your case.

You have been unable to explain how your allegedly non-sentient gas displays sentience and only moves away from the opening, nor why the gauge doesn't almost instantly drop to 0.
The rational explanation is that the non-sentient gas still pushes outwards in all directions and thus there is still pressure on the gauge (which strange people like to call negative pressure just because it was less than what it was before), and the gauge shows the pressure as the pressure in the container drops.

You are yet to substantiate your nonsense in any way, and you are yet to show any problem with the conventional explanation.

Put this mindset towards a rocket
And you will get no where because it is just pure nonsense.
If instead you use rational thought it is clear to see why rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

You can happily go against this as you obviously will. That's fine. Just accept that I will not be changing my mind
I know you likely wont change your mind as you have no concern at all for the truth, but how about being honest for once and admit you aren't looking for logical people at all.
If you want me to stop calling you out on your BS, stop spouting it or admit it is BS.
Or do the impossible and actually justify it.

Until you do, I will continue to press you for an explanation as you are yet to provide one.

Again, how does the gas leave the rocket?
You claim that the rocket can't move because there is nothing to push against. That also applies to the gas inside the rocket, and thus the gas can't leave the rocket.
Any excuse you provide for why the gas can leave destroys your argument against rockets working.


Until you can actually deal with this problem, all you have is pathetic BS.

Put this mindset towards a rocket and it's clear to see why rockets do not work on the principle of internal push, because there is zero positive push.

It means something has to be a resistance to that consistent flow coming from the valve/nozzle and we have it. It's called ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE.

Now let's make this clear.
You can happily go against this as you obviously will. That's fine. Just accept that I will not be changing my mind and also accept that this is my explanation and everytime you ask me the same question and then telling me I haven't explained, I'll cut out everything of your post and answer one or two words.
I'm just letting you know.
If you persist in going on then so be it.

Real rockets don't have needles, springs, nozzle valves, blocked and unblocked flow, ...

Real rockets pump fuel and oxidizer into the combustion chamber and burn it there,
which increases the pressure inside and pushes some mass of gas out (backward).
It is long-lasting controlled explosion, with intensity regulated by flow of fuel and oxidizer.
Every explosion generates pressure (force per area) in all directions and pushes all matter away from the center.

Gas does not get out on its own, it gets pushed. (And not only gas.)

You can't push (accelerate) any mass without force.
And you can't have any force without the adequate reaction force.

What's the gauge spring pushing faster against?
Let me try and make this easier. (I'm absolutely sure you'll have difficulty in this and skew it)

Imagine a bath with a pressure gauge on it that, as you fill the bath the gauge reacts to the air pressure in the pipe as the water is pushing that air up and compressing it against the gauge needle.
I'm sure you can understand this.

Ok, you fill the bath and the gauge needle says it's full because the air inside the tube is now compressed enough to keep that gauge at that full point because the gauge spring can't push the air away and the air cannot compress any more because the dense water has stopped pushing that air. We now have a sealed unit where there is a POSITIVE pressure on that gauge spring and that gauge spring has a positive push due to it being compressed and storing potential energy but is reliant on it being allowed to be expanded.


Now pull the plug out and think of this as opening a valve.
Once that water starts to go out of the plug hole, so does the compressed air expand out of the tube and gauge and the gauge spring decompresses in following that. No positive pressure is applied to the spring. The spring is now applying the positive pressure behind the air as it turns that potential energy into energy by being allowed to expand that spring, which means you see the pointer drop.

There is zero positive pressure in the opposite direction to the plug hole/valve/nozzle.

Nope, still doesn't work. When the valve is opened, the gauge goes down in accordance with how fast the pressure is being released. Open the valve more, the gauge goes down faster, open it less, the gauge goes down slower. I'm sure you understand this.

There must be some pressure resistance on the gauge that tells the gauge at what speed it needs to go down. Otherwise, the gauge would immediately drop to zero regardless of whether the valve was opened fully, partially or somewhere in between. I'm sure you understand this.
There is a pressure resistance. I've been telling you all along but you refuse to see it for some strange reason.
The point I'm making is, it's a negative one, not a positive one.


Quote from: Stash
You realize that how you want pressure gauges to work is not how any pressure gauges work the world over? Now pressure gauges are part of our indoctrinated sheep-like populace conspiracy? At a certain point you have to face at least some simple, rudimentary facts. I mean c'mon.
You do realise I'm giving out alternate thought to what we're told, don't you?


Quote from: Stash
So how does the gauge know to go down at the speed in accordance to the amount of pressure being released? None of your explanations address this.
It goes down at whatever rate of expansion allows it to go down.
The rate of expansion out of the valve determines how that spring can push on the gas going out.
The more expansion the more chain reaction of following molecules expanding more.
All molecules will not be expanding at the same rate. Every stack of them will expand at a slightly different rate all the way to the back of the container. This is why there's resistance but why there is no positive push in the opposite direction.

Put some effort in because you're clearly not trying to understand it from my side, you're merely looking at your book of gas molecules and saying "nope" it's not like that.

Let's be clear here. This is about rockets working or not in what you class as space but I do not identify as the space you adhere to. Right there we have a conflict and you have the mainstream so called science of it on your side. You know I do not follow it and you know I have an alternative reason as to why I don't think they work.

You telling me I'm wrong can only be you doing it from your adherence to the books/schooling you go with. That does not mean you know the reality and it doesn't mean I know the exact reality.

But here's the key.
You cannot have free space between molecules. No matter how much you accept you can, I'm 100% sure you can't for a very simple reason.
Free space means nothing and you cannot have nothing, which should be absolute logic at its most basic.

So on that note I suggest you try and understand my side. Nobody's asking you to accept it. Just understand it and stop pretending you do. I'll know when you fully understand it.

If the gas wasn't still pushing on the gauge, how quickly the gas left wouldn't matter.


When the container is sealed the gas is in equal compression, meaning each gas molecule is compressed and trying to expand against each other....but can't because there's no opening for expansion.

The gauge spring is also compressed and this shows on the needle. It's positively pushed against.

However, once that valve is opened, the gas immediately at the valve opening expands out against the external environment and every other gas inside starts to expand in a chain reaction towards that valve opening.
The gauge spring is not positively pushed against as this happens. The gauge spring now does what the gas is doing in following that chain reaction which is why you see the gauge needle drop as long as that valve remains open.
If you open that valve a little then the needle will fall a little because the spring is not positively pushed agaiuned, it's now expanding itself with the gas flow of expansion.

The result is, no positive force is pushed in the opposite direction to the valve opening.

The point I'm making is, it's a negative one, not a positive one.
And the point we are making is that you are just lying about what the words mean.
It is still a positive pressure. Even with it being less than before, it is still positive.

It goes down at whatever rate of expansion allows it to go down.
Which only makes sense if it is still applying pressure to the gauge.
If the gas was no longer applying pressure in all directions then there is no reason for the gauge to read that pressure and thus the guage should drop to 0.

Put some effort
Follow your own advice.
Try and actually put in some effort to come up with a coherent model and address the issues people have raised rather than simply repeating the same non-answers.

You cannot have free space between molecules.
Prove it.
Repeatedly asserting the same baseless nonsense doesn't magically make it true.
You are yet to substantiate that claim in any way.
Just like the rest of your model. All you have is wild speculation and baseless assertion. Absolutely nothing to back any of it up.

So why are you giving me the time of day?
Because unlike you, I actually care about the truth, so I will continue calling out your pathetic BS.

Again, repeating the same lie will not help your case.

The only reason you have for rejecting how rockets work is because they show Earth isn't flat.

It's a burn not an internal explosion in any form or your rocket would be a crumpled, shattered mess in short order.
It's a controlled burn against atmospheric resistance. It really is as simple as that but far too simple for a space rocket because a space rocket has to cut out the obvious and this is why the internal explosion nonsense comes about.

The only thing that shocks me about people believing this space rocket stuff is, anyone who's taken a short amount of time to use their logic and still accepts space rockets.

No, I'm not lying.
You are literally trying to redefine words to pretend the pressure is negative rather than positive.
That is lying.

Just because the pressure is dropping doesn't mean it is negative.
The direction of the force is still the same. It is only the magnitude which has decreased.

It's my theory.
No, it isn't. It is your collection of incoherent ideas which have no chance of explaining reality.

It's a burn not an internal explosion in any form or your rocket would be a crumpled, shattered mess in short order.
This depends entirely upon how you define explosion.
By most people's definition it would be an explosion as it very rapidly increase the volume of gas present.

It's a controlled burn against atmospheric resistance. It really is as simple as that
Again, the atmosphere has nothing to do with it.
It is simply high pressure gas pushing the rocket, or alternatively, it is simply conservation of momentum with the gas getting thrown backwards and the rocket moving forwards.
You are yet to justify your insane claims that the atmosphere is needed.

far too simple for a space rocket because a space rocket has to cut out the obvious
No, that would be you. You need to cut out the obvious and act oblivious to pretend they can't work in space.

Your "obvious" argument obviously requires gas to be magically trapped inside an open container, defying all reason.

Simple, obvious thought processes show you have 2 options, either rockets do work, or gas remains trapped in an open container.
You still haven't managed to find an excuse to get out of it.

The only thing that shocks me about people believing this space rocket stuff is, anyone who's taken a short amount of time to use their logic and still accepts space rockets.
Why would people believing things supported by logic shock you? Are you surprised that people aren't as foolish as you hoped?

It's called not giving up and rattling globalb heads who have a mission to ensure nobody actually see through the global nonsense.
You mean to try and prevent people from realising you are just spouting pure nonsense and accepting the reality of a round Earth.

But thanks for once again showing that your objection to rockets has nothing to do with rockets and instead is entirely based upon you not wanting Earth to be round.
Even without rockets Earth is still round, but with rockets we have obtained photos of Earth, clearly showing it is round. You can't handle that so you need to reject (not refute) rockets.

But you have no basis for your rejection.

If you want to honestly claim it is nonsense and that rockets can't work in a vacuum then you need to address the issue you have been avoiding which was raised before you even joined this thread, an issue that all the FEers have been avoiding because they know that an honest answer would lead to the inescapable conclusion that rockets work in a vacuum and consistent answers would lead to either rockets working in a vacuum or gas magically staying trapped.

Again, you claim that there is nothing to push against so it can't move. You claim there is no atmosphere so it can't move.
The same applies to the gas.
So either there is nothing to push against and no atmosphere so the gas remains trapped in the rocket, unable to leave it, or motion is possible and your argument is BS.
There is no third option.

Let me remind you that explosion IS a burn that generates pressure.
You DO know that the intensity is regulated to be insufficient to break the combustion chamber walls.
The walls contain the pressure increase, so the pressure pushes gas only through the nozzle.

You are also very well aware that no burn needs atmosphere when the oxygen is supplied from an oxidizer.
The pressure inside the combustion chamber will build up regardless of the presence of an atmosphere.

We know that you DO know these things, but still continue to blur them by sneaking your own "explanation" in.

Yes, this is how ridiculous it gets.
Not even an attempt at an argument, just a demand to not tell you reality.

You have been unable to provide any rational objection to the reality of rockets working in a vacuum so you just need to assert nonsense and claim it can't be true.

No atmosphere, no burn. Pretty simple.
No, not simple at all.
A complete lack of understanding of how combustion works.

Your rocket would be left in a heap on the floor after a pressurised explosion. It would go nowhere and literally be a standing bomb.
Again, you have literally nothing to back this up.

Of course I know these things.
If you actually knew these things you would be able to justify your insanity instead of just repeating it.
You would be able to answer very simple questions which show your claims to be pure garbage.

The actual difference is that we actually understand it rather than spouting nonsense to prop up an ancient failed model of the universe, which is so far removed from that ancient model it isn't funny.

The direction is not still the same.
So you have a pressure gauge on a tank oriented horizontally.
Initially the tank is nice and pressurised and sealed and pushing to the left on the gauge, with the spring trying to push it back to the right.
Now you open the tank.
What direction is the gas pushing on that gauge? Left or right (or not at all)?
If not at all, the gauge will very quickly go to 0.
If right, the gauge will return to 0 even faster.
The only way to slow the gauge returning to 0 is if the gas is pushing to the left to provide resistance against the spring.

So what direction?


And again, figured out how your gas can move when you claim such motion is impossible?

Don't tell me that walls hold pressure to allow explosions to lift a rocket when we're told a number of 3000 (yes, three thousand) tonne rockets supposedly launched in the 60's....etc.

If the pressure is unbearable for the "3000 tonne rocket", then what lifts it off the ground?
The internal to external expansion of gases against the atmosphere becoming more compressed and resisting it. This is what the rocket sits on....and no I don't mean 3000 tonne so called space rockets. They don't exist.

Your word salad means nothing.
"Internal to external expansion" means that the pressure inside is higher than the pressure outside.

Saturn V used Rocketdyne F-1 engine, which had chamber pressure of 70 bar (69 atm).
At the Earth surface the difference is 68 atm (external pressure is 1 atm), and up there is 69 atm (external pressure is virtually zero).

Lower pressure difference at the surface means slower exhaust and lower thrust.

In reality, the thrust of F-1 at surface is 6770 kN and in vacuum 7770 kN.
That is because in the atmospere the exhaust speed is 2.58 km/sec compared to 2.98 km/sec in vacuum.

Now multiply that with the mass of the exhaust and the number of engines and tell us that
the rocket can push all that without force, regardless of the presence of the atmosphere around.

And that force can get away without reaction force back to the rocket?

1 bar of the atmospheric pressure sitting outside can hold the rocket,
and 70 bar of the chamber pressure pushing through the nozle can't?

Pressure in a fluid (a gas or a liquid) is a scalar and does not have any direction.
Wrong.
No, while pressure at a surface has a direction, for a fluid it is the same in all directions and thus does not have a direction, just a value.

?
My questions were quite simple.
Avoiding them yet again just shows you have no interest in the truth.

Why not just admit you don't give a damn about the truth and you are spouting nothing but lies?

Again:
What direction is the gas pushing on that gauge? Left or right (or not at all)?
And how can the gas leave the tube when you say that motion in vacuum is impossible as there is no atmosphere and nothing to push off?

These simple questions destroy your claims. It's understandable why you need to repeatedly ignore them, as you don't care about the truth.

What does a hovercraft sit on?
The high pressure gas below it which is pushing it upwards.
Just like with a rocket, the only thing that can push it up is the gas.

But this also shows a key difference between the hovercraft and the rocket.
The hovercraft needs a solid or liquid object to push against to keep that gas pressurised, as the pressure is based upon how quickly the gas can escape, and that is what controls its altitude. If it gets too close to the ground, the pressure increases as not as much gas can escape which pushes it up more. If it gets further away the pressure drops as more air escapes.

If the nonsense you are saying was true, and the air is fine to create that resistance then a hovercraft should work equally well in mid air. But it doesn't.
So this shows it isn't the air creating the resistance for the rocket.

Nothing will fly in a vacuum, just so you understand.
So you admit that your gas can't "fly" in a vacuum and thus must remain trapped inside the rocket?

If a rocket had an engine like this F1 it would not work.
Why?
You are yet to substantiate that in any way.

As soon as you show me exactly what you believe that water rocket is doing by clearly pointing it out on a diagram of your doing and I'll happily do one showing you how it really works.
Stop lying.
You have no interest at all in providing a diagram of how one really works. You still need to do that for my simple rocket remember?
I met your challenge, and you were then completely unable to provide a diagram showing how it works.


Now how about you cut the crap and answer the simple question. Tell us how the gas manages to leave the rocket if nothing can fly in vacuum, that motion requires the atmosphere, and that you need something to push off to move and there is nothing to push off in the vacuum.

If you can't figure out anything then admit that either rockets work in a vacuum or according to your "model" the gas would need to remain trapped in an open container.

Test two: fill the bottle halfway, put the cork in,

No wonder you can't get your head around it.

Get it right and understand the action and reaction sequence.
Also don't just sit and give out the one bar as if that's it.
It's around 15 lbs per square inch of external pressure.
Per square inch.
Per square inch.

You have to try and push that 15 lbs per square inch away by creating a pressure to do just that.
Where's that pressure?

From the ignition of the gases coming from the rocket that hits and compresses that atmosphere to a much higher pressure to create a much higher resistance in that stack below, which creates the push back onto those gases of which the rocket basically rests on for a nano second and then a nano second and then a....well you get the point.
It's basically a gas fight as long as that rocket gas is burning at the strength (thrust) it's burning at into that super compressed resistance below.

And yet none of you can string together a response from your own minds. You have to look it all up and copy and paste diagrams that show nothing of what we're arguing.
When asked to show what you mean in easy detail, you can't and your argument comes down to, "we don;t need to."

Yes you do if you want to prove something to someone who doesn't believe the official narrative.
Or, deck out.

Don't tell me that walls hold pressure to allow explosions to lift a rocket when we're told a number of 3000 (yes, three thousand) tonne rockets supposedly launched in the 60's....etc.

If the pressure is unbearable for the "3000 tonne rocket", then what lifts it off the ground?
The internal to external expansion of gases against the atmosphere becoming more compressed and resisting it. This is what the rocket sits on....and no I don't mean 3000 tonne so called space rockets. They don't exist.

Your word salad means nothing.
"Internal to external expansion" means that the pressure inside is higher than the pressure outside.

Clearly it does mean something. You managed to get it.


Quote from: Macarios
Saturn V used Rocketdyne F-1 engine, which had chamber pressure of 70 bar (69 atm).
At the Earth surface the difference is 68 atm (external pressure is 1 atm), and up there is 69 atm (external pressure is virtually zero).

Lower pressure difference at the surface means slower exhaust and lower thrust.

In reality, the thrust of F-1 at surface is 6770 kN and in vacuum 7770 kN.
That is because in the atmospere the exhaust speed is 2.58 km/sec compared to 2.98 km/sec in vacuum.

Now multiply that with the mass of the exhaust and the number of engines and tell us that
the rocket can push all that without force, regardless of the presence of the atmosphere around.

And that force can get away without reaction force back to the rocket?

1 bar of the atmospheric pressure sitting outside can hold the rocket,
and 70 bar of the chamber pressure pushing through the nozle can't?

If a rocket had an engine like this F1 it would not work.
The Saturn V had five Rocketdyne F-1 engines in the first stage - hence the name!
So prove "it would not work" because the Saturn V obviously did work! Look:

It's more of a word salad fight than a 'gas fight'. This whole bit, "From the ignition of the gases coming from the rocket that hits and compresses that atmosphere to a much higher pressure to create a much higher resistance in that stack below, which creates the push back onto those gases of which the rocket basically rests on for a nano second and then a nano second and then a....well you get the point." is like Caesar with grilled chicken, dressing on the side. Wow, that's a whole bunch of words strung together that don't mean anything in aggregate.

It's more like:

"What you are told is basically baloney but it needs to be baloney otherwise space rockets would be clearly shown to work as advertised. Because I don't believe in 'space', pressure gauges, well studied biochemistry and how things work on a molecular level, I have concocted a musing, if you will, replete with strung together words regarding stacks and sponges and such and endeavor to pass it all off as a well founded theory. Yet, I never math, oh no. Nor experiment, absolutely not. Just me and my musings. Enjoy."
- Sceptimatic - 2019
And yet none of you can string together a response from your own minds. You have to look it all up and copy and paste diagrams that show nothing of what we're arguing.
When asked to show what you mean in easy detail, you can't and your argument comes down to, "we don;t need to."

Untrue. In easy detail, which has been expressed in all manners, example, a pressure gauge registers pressure. That's what they are designed to do, the world over. Yet you claim, against the pressure gauge industry and the millions of people who use them and rely on them, that they actually work differently than designed - They are incorrect instruments, according to you and you alone.

Yet you provide no evidence of such, an audacious claim other than it's just what you think. No math, no experiments, nothing. Talk about, "I don't need to"? Seriously?

The world over uses math, calculations for flight, transport, both human and goods. Would you ever fly on a plane knowing that all involved are reading gauges that comport what you deem as incorrect, miscalculated, mis-interpreted, mis-used? Do you get outside? I mean seriously?

If the rotors were strong enough and fast enough
i.e. if it was a helicopter, which relied upon moving atmosphere from above to below, rather than generating its own gas and pushes that away?

This is why your rocket works with atmosphere and why it lifts off quickly.
You are yet to show how rockets work with atmosphere rather than just a lot of pressure.
As has already been pointed out, hovercraft use the atmosphere, as in they use fans/rotors which move it.
Rockets don't.

It's complete nonsense
So far the only nonsense in this thread is that presented by FEers trying to refute the reality of rockets working in space.
They need to resort to pure nonsense which results in the insanity of high pressure gas being trapped in an open container, while rejecting extremely well established laws of physics backed up by mountains of evidence.

Again, if you want to assert they are nonsense and have anyone take you seriously you need to address the very simple issue you have been avoiding for so long.

One bar of atmosphere?
No wonder you can't get your head around it.
So reality gets in the way?
1 bar isn't anything significant for a rocket, especially considering it is pushing all around the rocket.

Get it right and understand the action and reaction sequence.
We do. You are the one massively struggling with it.
The rocket pushes a lot of gas out at a very high velocity (action).
In reaction the gas pushes the rocket up.
Not very difficult.
But of course, as it doesn't need the atmosphere that would mean rockets work in space so you need to reject it.
But up in space, just consider the action reaction sequence. Does the gas leave?
If so, that demands a reaction, and the only thing that can be is the rocket moving.

It's around 15 lbs per square inch of external pressure.
Or around 10 000 kg/m^2. Not much.
For a rocket like the Saturn V which weighed 2 970 000 kg, you would need more like 300 bar, like what was produced by the engines.

You have to try and push that 15 lbs per square inch away by creating a pressure to do just that.
And the much higher pressure of the engine can easily do that, making it as if the atmosphere wasn't there.
The atmosphere cannot resist that pressure and push back by any significant amount.
It is only the high pressure gas from the rocket that can push the rocket up.

If it was a gas fight like in your fantasy you would see the exhaust stay with the rocket or at best fly out to the sides.

What you are told is basically baloney but it needs to be baloney otherwise space rockets
Yes, what you repeatedly say is baloney. But you need it to be otherwise they clearly show Earth is round, and you can't handle that.

If it was all baloney then why are you incapable of addressing such a simple issue?

And yet none of you can string together a response from your own minds.
More pathetic lies.
Plenty of us have made a quite coherent response which exposes your nonsense by ourselves.
I don't need to go and copy and paste to refute your nonsense.

I did that quite early on in the thread and you still haven't figured out a solution which can prevent rockets from working in space without magically containing gas.

Again, how does the gas leave the rocket when you claim such motion would be impossible as there is no atmosphere and nothing to push off?

Get it right and understand the action and reaction sequence.

Then why are you ignoring the action and reaction?

Rocket is pushing the exhaust "without the reaction to push back"?

Rocket pushes the mass of the exhaust backwards with the force.
Reaction to that force pushes the remaining mass of the rocket rocket forward.

Same things happens always: action and reaction.

Wheels of a ground vehicle push road backwards, the reaction pushes the vehicle forward.
Ship propeller (or wheel at Mississipi, or paddles on boat) pushes water backwards, the reaction pushes the ship forward.
Airplane propeller pushes the air backwards, the reaction pushes the airplane forward.

Yes, it's all "your opinion" because you refuse to research the available material on these things that you claim are "are hidden behind a smokescreen".

But most of the theories about gases are based on the Gas Laws that were initially developed from experimental work as far back as 350 years (Boyle's Law). Back there the reasons for these laws were not known and that came later with the kinetic theory of gases, developed during the 1800s.

So there is pressure from the outside, pushing on the exiting, which pushes on the inside of the tube pushing the rocket up.

Thata the point weve been trying to make way back on pg50 when you joined this party.

Rockets don't need the atmosphere to work, gravitation doesn't need the atmosphere to work, hence everything does not need the atmosphere to work.
Wrong.
Incorrect. The fact that rockets don't need any atmosphere has been explained numerous times and demonstrated.
Don't blame us for your inability or unwillingness to understand it.

And, whatever you might dream up, reality does not need your approval, Mr SkeptiManiac.
It certainly doesn't. All we do need is for those who bypass reality to actually give us back the reality. That's all that's needed.
However, if that happens then we would have very little news to go on to play with our heads, from war propaganda to silly space adventures that get sillier every day.
Just look in a mirror to learn one of those "who bypass reality".
But the whole point is that the shape of the Earth is not a recent theory and predates any of your claimed "silly space adventures that get sillier every day" by millennia!

Quote from: rabinoz

Whatever you claim, it is impossible to deduce how everything works from "common sense".
Deducing how out how everything works requires a tremendous amount of research and careful measurement.
One person, however smart he thinks he is, simply cannot do that - get used to that.
We simply have to rely on the work of others.
Your problem is, you think I go against everything. I don't.
You reject all of physics that goes against the hypotheses you dream up yet those hypotheses have no useful applications.

Whenever you are asked to make a calculation based on those hypotheses you refuse because you can't.
But the real physics of gases and the atmosphere allows the design of aircraft and to predict just how they will fly and perform.

Quote from: sceptimatic
I just don't trust a lot of stuff and also think a lot of stuff is told in an alternate way to the reality.
They still work in reality but the explanations of how and why are hidden behind a smokescreen, in my opinion.
Yes, it's all "your opinion" because you refuse to research the available material on these things that you claim are "are hidden behind a smokescreen".

But most of the theories about gases are based on the Gas Laws that were initially developed from experimental work as far back as 350 years (Boyle's Law). Back there the reasons for these laws were not known and that came later with the kinetic theory of gases, developed during the 1800s.

If that wasn't true why would there be such a plethora of flat Earth "theories" none of which agree with each other.
Take for example the flat Earth "theories" presented in:
      TFES.org: The Flat Earth Wiki (https://wiki.tfes.org/The_Flat_Earth_Wiki),
      Sandokhan's Advanced Flat Earth Theory (https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.0) and
      Your flat Denpressure Earth Theory described somewhere.
These are all vastly different so cannot all be correct - and after looking into them it seems far more likely that none are correct.
Yep, including a spinning globe and many many more theories.
Nope, it does not include the rotating Globe.
That was developed gradually over millennia and for some 1800 years the Earth was thought "For truly it is an orb placed in the centre of the universe", the Venerable Bede, around 700 AD.

The Earth's being a slowly rotating was developed over the period from the late 1500s till the early 1700s.

There's enough stuff out there to observe, test and repeat to know that anything from inside a container allowed to be released from that container, will follow a flow, whether it's a liquid/fluid/gas.

I simply can't understand how anyone can believe a rocket can burn fuel inside of it to kick it's own arse into the sky or into so called fantasy space. It really does beggar belief...for those who have given plenty of thought to it, I mean.

That's been done over and over! It's needs nothing more than Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, force = mass x acceleration
Surely you accept that bit of basic physics.
It's what creates the force and how it's created to accelerate a mass.
Just simply using that equation means absolutely nothing with your fantasy space rocket unless you absolutely prove it works or at least explain how and why it works.

Quote from: rabinoz

It's not "our vacuum"!
A perfect vacuum might not be possible but even on Earth a pressure so low that you could never tell the difference is quite possible.

Nope. The pressure can be so low but it's not so low as to be indistinguishable from your vacuum. Why?
Because your vacuum does not and cannot exist but an extreme low pressure can exist.

And that's all you can work on, unless you want to carry on with arguing for a space vacuum that means a nothing which would mean it literally wouldn't exist.

I simply can't understand how anyone can believe a rocket can burn fuel inside of it to kick it's own arse into the sky or into so called fantasy space.
It's easy!
 Burning fuel and oxidised (making up the propellant) in the combustion chamber (not in a vacuum) increases the pressure of that propellant tremendously.
That propellant usually starts as liquid hydrogen, methane or RP-1 (kerosene) as the fuel and liquid oxygen as the oxidised.
This burnt propellant ends up as a very high temperature gas and so is under a very high pressure (up to say 300 times normal atmospheric pressure).
As the burnt propellant escapes through the throat and bell of the nozzle it expands greatly in volume so decreasing the temperature and increasing the velocity to thousands of metres per second.

The force needed to accelerate around 1000 kg of propellant from zero to thousands of km/sec is the force that produces the thrust of the rocket.
And all that burning, expansion and accelerating is within the rocket before it's reach the vacuum of space.

So I fail to see why you find it impossible to grasp.

I challenge you to measure the difference between a pressure of 1 Pascal (about 1/100,000 th of normal atmospheric pressure) and a perfect vacuum. Yet a pressure of 1 Pascal is classed at the better end of a "good vacuum" and far far removed from an ultra high vacuum.

Stop trying to distract from you inability to explain.

Explain it in enough detail to show exactly what's happening.

I will as soon as you or someone like you makes it clear as to how your rocket works in your vacuum.
Again, cut the crap.
You have absolutely no intention of doing so, as if you do, you would be admitting rockets work in a vacuum.
You have already been provided with such a diagram, which you just dismissed and acted like rockets are pure magic, with the gas just magically moving without needing to push against anything.

Now why don't you try making the drawing you promised ages ago, and show how the gas magically leave the rocket when you claim such motion is impossible?
Again, the only thing for it to push against is the rocket, so either the rocket gets pushed by the gas and thus works in a vacuum, or the gas can't leave the rocket.

The rocket engine's bell might be open but the burnt propellant cannot get out infinitely fast.

That is such a pity ;D because then the rocket engine would also produce infinite thrust because thrust = (mass flow rate) x (exhaust velocity)!

If it's open it's also open at all times,  which means there's no need for any combustion chamber to be separated from the atmosphere.

And saying propellent not being able to get out infinitely fast means what?
You said it's mixed in the chamber and it then combusts in that chamber and then it does it's job in that chamber of working the rocket.

Tell me how?

Because the big burn that comes out of the rocket is apparently just exhaust....meaning it's supposedly exhausted gas burn which you and others keep saying, is irrelevant.

Rocket pushes the mass of the exhaust backwards with the force.
Reaction to that force pushes the remaining mass of the rocket forward.
What reaction?
Reaction to the force that pushes the exhaust backwards.

Remember when you were talking about action and reaction?
Action is the pushing of the exhaust by the rocket, reaction pushes the rocket off the exhaust.

Explain exactly what's happening, because that's as sketchy as all hell.
As the next portions of the fuel and oxidizer get pumped into combustion chamber they continue
the volatile chemical reaction that keeps the temperature and the pressure in the combustion chamber
high enough to push the next mass of the exhaust at designated speed.

Quote from: Macarios
Wheels of a ground vehicle push road backwards, the reaction pushes the vehicle forward.
Using atmosphere in order to do so.
The only use of the atmosphere would be the oxygen from it if the vehicle burns some fuel.
Electric or spring vehicles don't.

Quote from: Macarios
Ship propeller (or wheel at Mississipi, or paddles on boat) pushes water backwards, the reaction pushes the ship forward.
Using water and atmosphere in order to do so.
Electric, spring, or paddle vessels don't need the atmosphere. Submarines also don't need the atmosphere.

Quote from: Macarios
Airplane propeller pushes the air backwards, the reaction pushes the airplane forward.
Rocket pushes exhaust backwards, the reaction pushes the rocket forward.
Using atmosphere in order to do so. You're answering your own questions to be fair.
Airplane needs the atmosphere around wings to counteract the Earth's gravity. Rocket doesn't.
Airplane uses air to push it backward for moving forward. Rocket pushes the exhaust instead.

For more details you have tons of messages in this thread, and some videos at YouTube...
There are no details on what I'm arguing against with how so called space rockets work.
Your denial won't disqualify them, except in your wishes / daydreamings.
Your attempts to "explain" that "rocket is pushing the exhaust without force" won't cancel that force in reality.

The mass of the exhaust can not be accelerated without force to push it.
That force equals the mass of the exhaust times the acceleration required to speed it up to the exiting velocity.

Look, while the operation of a rocket can be explained in very simple terms you seem unable to accept that but, whether you like it or not, the detailed explanation of how a rocket works is not all that simple but I'll do the best that I can - sorry if I fail.

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hfc4w1ybngwk9dh/Electropaedia%20-%20rocket%20motor.gif?dl=1)
Electropaedia - rocket motor
     You say, "which means there's no need for any combustion chamber to be separated from the atmosphere" but that separation is a vital part of the operation of the rocket engine.

You can have an air cylinder at 100 psig (100 psi above atmospheric pressure) and drill a hole in it and that air will not escape instantly.
You could have an air cylinder at 100 psia in a vacuum and drill a hole in it and that air will not escape instantly.

In all cases, the flow rate depends on the pressure difference and whatever is impeding the flow. In a rocket engine, the throat of the nozzle is impeding the flow.

In the diagram of a rocket motor on the left, the combustion chamber is separated from the outside by first the throat and then the bell. The throat looks large but there is an almost unimaginably flow-rate of burnt propellant that has to flow through it. For reasons I won't go into now (look up de Laval steam turbine nozzles) the velocity in the throat is limited to to the velocity of sound at that temperature and pressure.

The propellant flow rate is determined by the fuel and oxidiser pumps feeding it and the combustion chamber pressure is determined by that flow rate of the burnt propellant and the throat size. A very important point is that once the velocity in the throat reaches the velocity of sound that flow rate is completely independent of the outside pressure - be it normal atmospheric pressure or a vacuum.

Quote from: sceptimatic
And saying propellent not being able to get out infinitely fast means what?
You said it's mixed in the chamber and it then combusts in that chamber and then it does it's job in that chamber of working the rocket.

Tell me how?
As above the flow-rate through the throat is limited by other factors. A vacuum is not "magic": it is only a region of almost zero pressure.

Now that burnt propellant exits the throat at a very high temperature but with the velocity limited to the velocity of sound (commonly around 1000 m/s).
The shape and exit size of the bell is designed to allow the gas (burnt propellant) to increase in velocity and decrease in temperature and pressure as it travels to the exit.

So in the combustion chamber, throat and bell the propellant's velocity is accelerated fron zero (relative to the rocket) us to the exit velocity of thousands of metres per second.
And the force needed to cause this acceleration (the force = mass x acceleration equation) is the thrust of the rocket.

Ideally, the exit pressure should equal the external pressure but this is not possible with very low outside pressures because the exit area of the bell would be impractically large.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Because the big burn that comes out of the rocket is apparently just exhaust....meaning it's supposedly exhausted gas burn which you and others keep saying, is irrelevant.
The burnt propellant (exhaust) performs its purpose while still inside the rocket engine. Once it leaves the rocket it is irrelevant so long as it cannot build up pressure outside the rocket - then it will change things.

To burn something inside a sealed container would be to blow it to smithereens. It really is as simple as that.
What you're proposing for your space rocket, is a bomb.
Good thing it isn't a sealed container.
What you are proposing is a strawman.

Try putting your own brain into gear and use your own realistic views
Try following your own advice.
Again, our own realistic views demands that rockets must work in a vacuum.

All the evidence indicates that you can't just have motion magically appear from nothing.
Instead there must always be an interaction which involves an action and an equal and opposite reaction.
This also applies to gas.

So we go back to the gas in a tube example I provided before.
We have 2 options, either the gas stays in the tube or it leaves.
If it leaves, this means that the gas is accelerating which demand an action and reaction.
The only object this interaction can occur with is the rocket.
This means there must be an interaction with an equal and opposite reaction involving the gas and the rocket.
That means the rocket must go one way and the gas must go the other.
This means rockets MUST work in space.

The only other option is to have pressurised gas remain trapped inside an open container, which makes no sense at all.
But even in that case, consider the container (i.e. the tube):
It has pressurised gas (presumably at equal pressure throughout) pushing outwards on the tube.
This applies a force to the tube.
The force on the sides is balanced by the force on the other side.
But there is only one end.
This results in an unequal force with the gas pushing against one end creating a net force on the tube which demands motion along with the equal and opposite reaction of pushing the gas out of the tube.
This shows that the assumption that the gas remains inside is wrong.

So either way you do it, rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

That is what a logical mind would conclude.

Let's see you make one showing clearly how and why your space rocket works.
I already did and it is from the quote chain that was recently quoted.
You then ran away from it because you know that providing an honest answer will show yourself to be wrong.

Here it is again:
Your promises are worthless.
You have made such promises before, and just ran away when I met my end.

But here you go again:
(https://i.imgur.com/iTlCgNi.png)
For the simplest explanation, we just focus on the right hand side.
There is pressurised gas.
This gas exerts pressure outwards in all directions.
This applies force to the rocket, pushing it away to the left (red arrow).
This results in a reactionary force being applied to the gas, pushing it to the right (black arrow).

This means the rocket is pushed one way while the gas is pushed the other.

For a less basic view, the gas in the middle can't just leave the rocket, as there is gas in the way on the right hand side.
So the gas in the middle, in its attempt to expand, will push the last layer of gas (in purple) out to the right.
Again, this results in a reactionary force pushing the gas in the middle to the left.
Is this way the gas in the middle is acting as a force carrier, allowing the gas at the edge to push the rocket while the rocket pushes the gas at the edge to the right.
This means the gas at the right will be pushed out and the rocket will be pushed to the left, and the gas in the middle will expand outwards, and a new layer will take the place of the purple.
This continues until the pressure drops to 0.

Either way, the end result is the gas pushes the rocket one way and the rocket pushes the gas the other way.

Or in your terms, the gas uses the rocket as leverage/resistance, and the rocket uses the gas as leverage/resistance.

Thus rockets work in a vacuum.


Your turn.
Once this was provided you showed just how worthless your word is as you refused to provide an explanation of what you claim actually happens which is consistent with your claims.

So again, your turn. Going to provide an explanation of how the gas moves, nothing that you claim that motion requires using an object as leverage.
Put in all the necessary force arrows showing the action and reaction.

Show me, in a diagram, how the internal combustion
Until you can grasp a cold gas thruster moving on to an rocket which uses combustion is pointless.

Because the big burn that comes out of the rocket is apparently just exhaust....meaning it's supposedly exhausted gas burn which you and others keep saying, is irrelevant.
Only once it is actually out of the rocket.

To tell the truth would be to tell the truth and telling the truth means rockets only work in our atmosphere and all this space stuff is complete and utter nonsense in how we are told.....including the fantasy rocket explanation.
No, that would be a blatant lie.
At best (for you), telling the truth would be you admitting you have no idea if rockets work in space or not because you are completely incapable of making a consistent, coherent argument against rockets working in space.

All the evidence shows rockets work in space.
There is literally nothing to shows rockets do not or can not work in space except your baseless, contradictory claims (and those of other reality deniers).

Again, if you wish to claim they don't work in space, then clearly explain what happens to the cold gas thruster described before.
Does the gas remain in the tube? How does it leave the tube, considering such motion requires leverage, something to push against (which you claim doesn't exist out in the vacuum of space and according to you such motion would also require the atmosphere)?

Again, the only consistent options are either there is nothing to push against which results in the gas remaining trapped in an open container which defies reason; or for it to be pushing off the rocket so rockets must work in space.

Action is the pushing of the exhaust by the rocket, reaction pushes the rocket off the exhaust.
Show me in a simple diagram how this happens.

Quote from: Macarios
Explain exactly what's happening, because that's as sketchy as all hell.
As the next portions of the fuel and oxidizer get pumped into combustion chamber they continue
the volatile chemical reaction that keeps the temperature and the pressure in the combustion chamber
high enough to push the next mass of the exhaust at designated speed.
Why do you need a pump for compressed fuel?

Post by: sceptimatic on December 22, 2019, 02:41:28 AM

I never said that it was a "sealed container". I said nothing of the sort.
The rocket engine's bell might be open but the burnt propellant cannot get out infinitely fast.
If it's open it's also open at all times,  which means there's no need for any combustion chamber to be separated from the atmosphere.
Look, while the operation of a rocket can be explained in very simple terms you seem unable to accept that but, whether you like it or not, the detailed explanation of how a rocket works is not all that simple but I'll do the best that I can - sorry if I fail.

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hfc4w1ybngwk9dh/Electropaedia%20-%20rocket%20motor.gif?dl=1)
Electropaedia - rocket motor
     You say, "which means there's no need for any combustion chamber to be separated from the atmosphere" but that separation is a vital part of the operation of the rocket engine.

You can have an air cylinder at 100 psig (100 psi above atmospheric pressure) and drill a hole in it and that air will not escape instantly.
You could have an air cylinder at 100 psia in a vacuum and drill a hole in it and that air will not escape instantly.

In all cases, the flow rate depends on the pressure difference and whatever is impeding the flow. In a rocket engine, the throat of the nozzle is impeding the flow.

In the diagram of a rocket motor on the left, the combustion chamber is separated from the outside by first the throat and then the bell. The throat looks large but there is an almost unimaginably flow-rate of burnt propellant that has to flow through it. For reasons I won't go into now (look up de Laval steam turbine nozzles) the velocity in the throat is limited to to the velocity of sound at that temperature and pressure.

The propellant flow rate is determined by the fuel and oxidiser pumps feeding it and the combustion chamber pressure is determined by that flow rate of the burnt propellant and the throat size. A very important point is that once the velocity in the throat reaches the velocity of sound that flow rate is completely independent of the outside pressure - be it normal atmospheric pressure or a vacuum.

Quote from: sceptimatic
And saying propellent not being able to get out infinitely fast means what?
You said it's mixed in the chamber and it then combusts in that chamber and then it does it's job in that chamber of working the rocket.

Tell me how?
As above the flow-rate through the throat is limited by other factors. A vacuum is not "magic": it is only a region of almost zero pressure.

Now that burnt propellant exits the throat at a very high temperature but with the velocity limited to the velocity of sound (commonly around 1000 m/s).
The shape and exit size of the bell is designed to allow the gas (burnt propellant) to increase in velocity and decrease in temperature and pressure as it travels to the exit.

So in the combustion chamber, throat and bell the propellant's velocity is accelerated fron zero (relative to the rocket) us to the exit velocity of thousands of metres per second.
And the force needed to cause this acceleration (the force = mass x acceleration equation) is the thrust of the rocket.

Ideally, the exit pressure should equal the external pressure but this is not possible with very low outside pressures because the exit area of the bell would be impractically large.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Because the big burn that comes out of the rocket is apparently just exhaust....meaning it's supposedly exhausted gas burn which you and others keep saying, is irrelevant.
The burnt propellant (exhaust) performs its purpose while still inside the rocket engine. Once it leaves the rocket it is irrelevant so long as it cannot build up pressure outside the rocket - then it will change things.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Your rocket is a fantasy. It really is.
Nope! That's just your opinion based on nothing more than what you think is common sense.

Quote from: sceptimatic
To tell the truth would be to tell the truth and telling the truth means rockets only work in our atmosphere and all this space stuff is complete and utter nonsense in how we are told.....including the fantasy rocket explanation.
Again, that is simply your opinion and the truth is that the atmosphere "gets in the way" in two respects:
  • The simple static outside pressure reduces the effective thrust. For example the common SpaceX Merlin 1D engine has a sea-level thrust of 854 kN (about 87,000 kg.force) but a vacuum thrust of 981 kN (about 100,000 kg.force)

  • The air outside a rocket causes high drag and shock-waves as the rocket crosses the "sound-barrier".

To burn something inside a sealed container would be to blow it to smithereens. It really is as simple as that.
What you're proposing for your space rocket, is a bomb.
Good thing it isn't a sealed container.
What you are proposing is a strawman.


Let's play this really carefully. Simple answer will suffice and see where we get to.

Is your rocket combustion chamber similar to a car's combustion chamber, except it's not pushing down on a piston?

If not, explain simply, why not.

Basically saying its a balance of forces.
If a push out is matched by a push in, no movement.
No, absolutely not. It's the reason why anything works.
The more you push against something the more resistance has to be applied. It's a perfect example of you get out what you put in.
Or, back to a simple wording of " for every action there is and equal and opposite reaction.

So basically, you saying a balance of forces nullifies movement, is wrong in terms of moving vehicles.

You would be perfectly right if the balance of forces where of equal resistance, for example two twins pushing against each other on a solid surface equal at both sides and wearing exactly the same attire.

And stuff like it.
The thing is we don't have that with something moving against something to actually move off from.

For instance, a person can push a wheeled vehicle by using the ground as his resistance to allow that push. The wheeled vehicle cannot because it can free wheel.
However, if that wheeled vehicle used reverse pressure  to nullify the person's push with equal force then you get all effort and zero work done, other than expending fuel from both sides.

Again, you have absolutely nothing to think that except your desire for Earth to be flat and such things showing FE is wrong.

A rocket cannot push on its own exhaust for lift. It's so stupid it beggars belief.
No, your objection to it is so stupid id beggars belief.
You have the rocket, you have the gas.
Why can't the rocket push the gas?

Unless there's an external reactionary force to resist that ejected fuel the rocket goes nowhere.
It is the mass of the ejected fuel which resists changes in motion which provides all the necessary resistance.

Let's play this really carefully. Simple answer will suffice and see where we get to.
You are the one that needs to answer simple questions.
You accept the gas moves away from the rocket even in a vacuum, and you accept that things need to push off something in order to move, and that objects cannot push off themselves.
So what is the gas pushing off?

Again, until you understand simple cold gas thrusters you have no chance at explaining more complex rockets.
So again, simple question:
If there is nothing to push off in space, how does the gas leave the tube?

Tidy this mess up and get back to me.
So, you think you know everything so aren't prepared to try to understand something new.

OK, the short version.

The propellant (often some 1000 kg burnt every second) starts at zero velocity before being burnt.

In the combustion chamber, throat and bell of the converging-diverging nozzle that propellant is accelerated to an extremely high velocity (sometimes over 3000 metres per second) before exiting the nozzle.

Accelerating that huge mass to such a high velocity requires a huge force and that force is the source of the rocket engine's thrust.

The atmosphere has not come into it anywhere!

Sure, the highly compressed air will escape rapidly but not instantly! Look how long it takes:

Now imagine a combustion chamber feeding gas continually into that tank at a similar pressure.
The expanding bell is to convert the very high pressure right at the exit to a lower pressure and higher velocity.
Quote from: sceptimatic

Yes I get it but it makes zero sense to return that power back into the rocket. The flow is to the exit or nozzle, into the atmosphere.

There's no return pressure to push any rocket in the opposite direction.

The combustion chamber is open to the elements so what are you talking about?
This is why I say you should understand the cold gas thruster first.
You clearly have no idea how pressure in gas actually works.
It is not an instant equalisation of pressure.

Yes, the combustion chamber is open to the elements, but it has a pressure gradient across it, being at extremely high pressures at the the throat of the nozzle, and then the pressure decreases as the gas expands to the end of the nozzle.

That makes zero sense and I find it hard how people can be fooled by it.
Again, what part doesn't make sense?
The gas is pushed backwards by the rocket and the rocket is pushed forwards by the gas. A nice simple action-reaction.

The only reason you say it doesn't make sense is because otherwise you would need to admit that rockets work in a vacuum and that kills your fantasy.

Here you go, this is reality.
(https://i.postimg.cc/kGvhPHfd/rocket-propulsion-reg-0.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)
Are those black lines meant to indicate the force from the skin?
If not, that isn't reality as we are discussing rockets in a vacuum, unless you want to claim the vacuum is pushing back.
Also it can't make sense at all. You have literally nothing pushing the balloon or rocket forwards.
The only force you have on the rocket is pushing backwards, meaning it would need to move backwards.
Meanwhile, you have a greater force on the back of the gas leaving the rocket/balloon which would cause that to go forwards.
So that isn't reality at all. It makes no sense at all for trying to explain what is happening.
Would you like to try again?

Now again, deal with the cold gas thruster.
How does the gas leave when you have clearly indicated that such motion is impossible as there is nothing to push off and no atmosphere?

If not "open" then the combustion chamber certainly has restricted access to "the elements". And that access is restricted by the throat and the bell part of the nozzle.

Yes, obviously.
Your "open" is a very misleading way of describing it.
The ISS had a tiny hole between the inside that was at 14.7 psia and the outside at 0 psia causing a very slow loss of pressure.
An astronaut initially blocked the hole with his finger - yes, his finger!

Who's on about instantly?
Is your the rocket acting like a compressed air tank and if so, where's the pump on the compressed air tank?
Yes! The rocket is propelled by exactly same mechanism that makes that SCUBA tank fly around.
The air in the SCUBA tank at 0:21 in the video sends the TANK flying around for about 9 seconds.
But if there were a larger supply of gas it could fly for much longer.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Basically you do not need a pump on a rocket. It's pointless because it cannot do the work of what compressed gas can do when released into the atmosphere.
It certainly is not "pointless" because it is the fuel pump continuously feeds liquid propellant into the combustion chamber which burns providing a continuous supply of gas at a very high pressure.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Quote from: rabinoz
Now imagine a combustion chamber feeding gas continually into that tank at a similar pressure.
The expanding bell is to convert the very high pressure right at the exit to a lower pressure and higher velocity.
Feeding gas into a tank?
Explain this a bit more clearly.
See the above about the fuel pump etc.
If the burnt propellant left the rocket after the throat at a very high temperature, high pressure and velocity it would produce a lot of thrust but a lot of energy would be wasted.
The outside pressure is comparatively low, starting at about 14.7 psia at sea-level and falling to close enough to zero at extreme altitudes.
The pressure of the gas leaving the rocket needs to be no higher than that outside pressure.

The expanding part of the nozzle, the bell part, is to allow the gases to increase in volume and velocity while its pressure and temperature fall.

What matters in generating thrust is the mass and velocity of the propellant expelled.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Quote from: rabinoz
Quote from: sceptimatic
What higher pressure and how is it higher than a release of compressed gas into it and ignited?
The fuel (liquid hydrogen or kerosene ) and oxidiser (liquid oxygen) when burnt make a gas at a very high temperature so in the limited volume of the combustion chamber, are very high pressure.
Yes I get it but it makes zero sense to return that power back into the rocket. The flow is to the exit or nozzle, into the atmosphere.
The energy isn't fo much returned "back into the rocket" but is used to increase the velocity of the exhaust gas and it is the velocity of that exhaust gas that matters.

Quote from: sceptimatic
There's no return pressure to push any rocket in the opposite direction.
If there is then explain this bit in simple terms and don't give me the hogwash that it isn't simple.
You are getting no "hog-wash", though I might be failing to explain things simply enough for you.

But what do you mean by "there's no return pressure to push any rocket in the opposite direction"?

To accelerate a mass, m, to a velocity, v in one second requires a force, Fm x v - that crucial equation! Just Newton's Second Law of Motion, force = mass x acceleration.

That force is driving the exhaust back out of the rocket and is supplied by an equal and opposite force on the rocket engine, the rocket's thrust.
And note that it is all inside the rocket engine. What is outside has little influence other than to "get in the way" and reduce the effective thrust a little.

Why the pump?
To pump the fuel and oxidiser into the high pressure of the combustion chamber.
Is the fuel and oxidizer under tank/container pressure?
Let's use the fictional Saturn V as a yardstick.
The Saturn V certainly is not fictional! Millions saw it in "real life" and billions on "real-time" TV though you might question how it performed.
The fuel (RP-1, basically purified kerosene in the F-1 engines of the Saturn V) and oxidiser (liquid oxygen) tanks are pressurised enough to feed them to the fuel pumps. That is little problem on Earth and while there is thrust being generated but is a problem in "zero-g" between main engine cutoff (MECO) and the ignition of the second stage - but that's for another time.

But the high-pressure fuel and oxidiser pumps needed pump the propellant into the very high pressure in the combustion chamber are huge "beasts" powered by gas turbines that use the same fuel.
Read this if you are really interested, SP-4206 Stages to Saturn: III. Fire, Smoke, and Thunder: The Engines (https://history.nasa.gov/SP-4206/ch4.htm).
The massive fuels pumps and the fuel and oxidiser injector plate design took a great deal of research and experimental work in their development.

From that pressure the pumps are transporting it to the chamber where the pressure is 70 bar.
So, ofcourse they are under pressure. It is not vacuum in those tanks.
But that pressure is much lower than the pressure they generate while burning in combustion chamber.
Without the pumps some gas would return from the chamber to the tanks.
It would prevent the intake of more fuel and oxidizer.

There's a reason why access is restricted in the throat to the nozzle. It's because the throat harbours the gas and air mix and the nozzle allows the expansion from ignition and burn against the atmosphere.

Yep, it's called compressed air against the atmosphere which is equally compressed by the exiting compressed air as the valve is opened.
This atmospheric pressure is pressurised in the direction of the exiting compressed air and that creates a massive resistance which allows the container to be pushed against that consistent air crash until the pressure becomes less greater than the mass of the container.

There's absolutely nothing inside that container that can push the inside of that container in the opposite direction to it's exiting gas. It's all done external to it.
And it really is simple observation and simple experiment.

Your rocket exits fire. A burn. A burning thrust of compressed gases....in one direction only....into the atmosphere.
The atmosphere is the resistance and the resistance that becomes equally as compressed as the hot gases hitting it which create a perfect gas on gas fight.
The rocket rests on this fight at each millimetre as that gas on gas fight ensues for as long as the rocket expels a burning thrust.

Your supposed space rocket is upright.
It's supposedly holding pressurised tanks.
Pumps cannot make the flow any faster coming from those pressurised tanks.
If you want to argue tanks that are not pressurised, such as kerosene then that kerosene would need to be stored in massive tanks and fed down to the nozzle for burn, along with a propellent or oxidiser.
A pump would not be needed.

How about you cut out all the junk and explain why a pump is needed.

All the rest of it is basically fictional nonsense set out ot baffle those who are mesmerised by space rockets.

You are trying to twist the reality again.

The fuel-oxidizer mix starts burning in the combustion chamber before it reaches the nozzle.
That is the purpose of the oxidizer in the first place.
To provide oxygen for fuel burning where there is no atmosphere to get it from.

One of the common liquid fuel mixture is methane and oxygen.

One CH4 molecule needs two O2 molecules to make one CO2 molecule and two H2O molecules.
Both methane and oxygen are pumped from tanks, atmosphere is excluded completely.
Both CO2 and H2O are getting pressurized by the burnng and get pushed with high energy through the nozzle,
together with the small quantity of not yet burned remains of the CH4 and O2 that finish burning outside.

Pumps CAN transfer fuel and oxidizer from 1-4 bar to 70 bar the same way as water pumps can transfer water upwards from rivers and lakes to water towers and other reservoirs. You don't need upward pressure of river water to make pump push it up.

When exhaust exits the rocket its involvement in the pushing process is over.
The atmosphere outside is not returning the exhaust back to push the rocket more.
That is why the existence of the atmosphere is irrelevant.
The next portion of the exhaust keeps pushing the rocket further, not the portion that is out already.

allows the expansion from ignition and burn against the atmosphere.
You are yet to provide any sort of rational explanation as to why it needs to push against the atmosphere or how it achieves that.
The actual reason is to provide the maximal thrust
You not liking something because it shows you are wrong doesn't make it nonsense.

Basically your ISS would be un able to sustain it's structure.
Why? that is just another pathetic assertion from you.
What makes you say it can't sustain its structure?
Is it because you need to grasp at whatever BS you can to reject reality so you can cling to your FE fantasy?

Ohhhh....and if you want to understand what would happen to a container in your so called space....or let's call it an extreme low pressure environment, all you have to do is reverse the process and apply it to a glass thermos that is under low pressure.
No, you don't. That doesn't help at all. We have been over this plenty of times already.
Crushing a container is quite different to blowing it up.
All you need to see that is a simple plastic drinking bottle.
First suck in all the air and you easily collapse the bottle.
Try try to burst the bottle and you will find no matter how hard you push, you can't.
You can even attach a pressure gauge to it and see what pressure it can take.
You will find it is far more resistant to higher pressures inside than higher pressures outside.

Now knock the welded nib off the bottom and see how fast that thermos fills with external pressure.
It's almost instant.
Because it is a tiny volume with a large hole.
Amazingly enough, size and scale is important.
A key thing to note is that the volume scales with length cubed, while the area scales with length squared.
What that means is that as a first approximation if you simply scale up the object such that a linear dimension is doubled, the volume will be multiplied by 8 and the area by 4. That means the flow rate of the gas will be multiplied by 4 while the volume it needs to fill is multiplied by 8, making it take twice as long.

Your space rocket is fantasy.
Then provide a viable alternative. Explain what is happening with the cold gas thruster. Because so far the only options are either rockets work in space, or pure nonsense.

Why would anyone need a fuel pump on a pressurised container? It makes zero sense.
It only makes 0 sense when you ignore the explanations which have already been provided.
But like I said, deal with a cold gas thruster first, then move on to more complex issues.

We know how they work on trucks and stuff, so tell me about this on a so called space rocket that somehow manages to super pump this fuel into a chamber faster than a compressed tank can release it.
You are aware it is the exact same principle, but different scales?
If it makes no sense for a rocket, it makes no sense for a truck.
If it makes sense for a truck, it makes sense for a rocket.

A burning thrust of compressed gases....in one direction only....into the atmosphere.
In one direction only, because that is the direction the rocket has pushed it into, with a resulting reaction pushing the rocket in the other direction.
No need for the atmosphere.
The gas provides the resistance.

A simple analogy would suffice to show me from your side.
Except such analogies have already been provided and you just ignore them.

Let's make this simple.
I have already made it extremely simple for you, yet you still fail to address the issue and provide a viable alternative to the reality of rockets working in space.

Again, you have a simple tube open at one end with pressurised gas inside. What happens?
Does the gas stay put? If so, what is keeping it there?
If not, then what is it pushing against to move as you have clearly indicated that you believe there is nothing for it to push off and such motion would require the atmosphere.

Until you can actually address this extremely simple case you have absolutely no basis to claim rockets cannot work in space.

So tell us, either how the gas magically stays inside an open container, or what it is pushing off which doesn't allow the rocket to work.

Incorrect! The ISS has been proven numerous times to appear exactly when and where it's been predicted.
It's been photographed numerous times with telescopic showing it looks exactly as it should and a few times simultaneously from different location enabling it's altitude and distance to be to be determined.

You deny the ISS simply because it doesn't fit with your believe and not because you've any evidence.

Rubbish! The structure of the ISS has been designed to withstand that stress.
An "ISO Tank Container" is designed to fit the space of a standard 40' ISO shipping container and has a similar diameter to the ISS is tested at 6 Bar, i.e. 6 x normal atmospheric pressure.
Quote
The most common type of tank is UN type T11 which can carry more than 1000 types of dangerous goods. T11 tanks are the most common tank in use, tested to 6 bars of pressure and have a working pressure of 4 bar. (Qualitank keep a number of tanks available which have current valid test certificates.)
This sort of thing:
(https://qualitank.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/RIMG1717.jpg)
So why do you find it hard to believe that the ISS cannot withstand an internal pressure of only 14.7 psia?

There's nothing magic about a vacuum - as far as stresses are concerned it's nothing more than a region of almost zero pressure.
A similar sized structure on earth with an internal pressure ot 29.4 psi would be subject to the same stresses.

But who says "only a stray manages to hit at thousands of mph." All that was said is that micro meteorite caused a tiny hole. The ISS has, in fact, been hit numerous times with damage to solar panels etc.

But the pressurised section of the ISS is largely protected with shields like this:

The modules of the ISS (http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/ISSRG/pdfs/mmod.pdf) are protected by Whipple shields (http://ares.jsc.nasa.gov/ares/hvit/basic.cfm): basically an extra wall outside the main pressure hull.

Thanks.
Can we clarify if we know the difference between force lines and flow of fluid lines?

Scepti is distracting you all away from this diagram that shows zero motion!
This technical mumbojumbo is all a distractioon when he cant even explain away the medicine ball or a balloon or a water rocket - the basic premise of his argument - that ejecting mass will cause a body to move in opposite direction and does not reuqire atmosphere to "springboard a gas-on-gas fight".

Hes provided a picture with no net forward force that would result in water rocket motion.
He failed to show where the water is, or its function.
It is nonsense.

I posted a message a while ago(#2372) and was totally ignored. I am curious as to why.  I took what I thought was a Zetetic approach which I thought was the preferred method.  Most of the people explain very well why a rocket can work in a vacuum.  I thought I would relay things I actually saw and did.  So I would be interested in why there were no responses to my post.

Come back to me when you're more civil.
I have been civil.
You are the one continually being uncivil by your repeated accusations of us all being brainwashed fools incapable of thinking and you repeatedly ignoring what has being said and/or dismissing it as hog-wash or the like.
You are in no place to complain about people allegedly being uncivil.

Calling you out on your repeated baseless assertions is not being uncivil. If you don't want me to call you out on them then either stop making them or actually back them up. So far it seems all you have done on this thread is repeatedly claim that rockets can't work in space, yet provided absolutely no justification for it, no problem with the explanations for how they work, no viable alternative, and just a bunch of insults and distractions.

Now how about you leave us all and come back when you have a coherent model which can actually explain such a simple issue.
Again, you have a simple tube open at one end with pressurised gas inside. What happens?
Does the gas stay put? If so, what is keeping it there?
If not, then what is it pushing against to move as you have clearly indicated that you believe there is nothing for it to push off and such motion would require the atmosphere?
If the gas can move it entirely refutes your argument about rockets allegedly not working in space.

How about addressing the failure of your image to explain anything.
Again:
Are those black lines meant to indicate the force from the skin?
If not, that isn't reality as we are discussing rockets in a vacuum, unless you want to claim the vacuum is pushing back.
Also it can't make sense at all. You have literally nothing pushing the balloon or rocket forwards.
The only force you have on the rocket is pushing backwards, meaning it would need to move backwards.
Meanwhile, you have a greater force on the back of the gas leaving the rocket/balloon which would cause that to go forwards.
So that isn't reality at all. It makes no sense at all for trying to explain what is happening.
Would you like to try again?

Until you can address both of these, providing a viable alternative explanation for how a rocket works in the atmosphere and providing a viable explanation for how the gas leaves while magically not allowing the rocket to move you have literally no basis for your claim that rockets cannot work in a vacuum or that an atmosphere is needed for motion.
Both of these completely destroy your false ideas.

Rubbish! The structure of the ISS has been designed to withstand that stress.
An "ISO Tank Container" is designed to fit the space of a standard 40' ISO shipping container and has a similar diameter to the ISS is tested at 6 Bar, i.e. 6 x normal atmospheric pressure.
Quote
The most common type of tank is UN type T11 which can carry more than 1000 types of dangerous goods. T11 tanks are the most common tank in use, tested to 6 bars of pressure and have a working pressure of 4 bar. (Qualitank keep a number of tanks available which have current valid test certificates.)
This sort of thing:
(https://qualitank.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/RIMG1717.jpg)
So why do you find it hard to believe that the ISS cannot withstand an internal pressure of only 14.7 psia?

There's nothing magic about a vacuum - as far as stresses are concerned it's nothing more than a region of almost zero pressure.
A similar sized structure on earth with an internal pressure ot 29.4 psi would be subject to the same stresses.

Are you saying this tank is what holds the fuel in a rocket?
Or is this tank far too small to be a tank for the saturn V?

How big would the saturn V tank be to hold the pressure?

Your rocket is not getting off the ground.
As for the so called ISS, are you saying this tank is the skin of it?

Not good at reading are you?
He is saying nothing about the Saturn V. He is discussing the ISS.

Good advice, you should try following it.
Go and actually read the thread and absorb what has been said. Look at all the arguments presented for why rockets MUST work in a vacuum, and then only come back when you can actually refute those arguments, such as explaining what the gas is magically pushing off to allow it to move but not the rocket.

Do you even know what you're saying?
Quote where you think I don't know.
I'm pretty sure he does, just like others have already shown.

There are 2 main ways you can stress a cylinder (or any object for that matter).
One is by placing a force on the outside pushing inwards. This is called compression.
The other is by placing a force in the inside pushing outwards. This is called tension.
The ability for objects to withstand these forces without failing are vastly different.
For an object under compression it can buckle and deform.
For an object under tension it needs to actually break apart the structure.
This means if you have a hollow object like a cylinder it will be much stronger under tension than compression.

Again, I already provided you with an example of how you can confirm this, but in your typical uncivil way, you just completely ignore whatever shows you are wrong.

Now again, care to explain how the gas can move when you claim such motion is impossible without the atmosphere and how it can move when you claim there is nothing for it to push off?
If it can move that shows that you don't need the atmosphere to do so and that either there is something in space for it to push off (such as the rocket) or you don't need something to push off. Either way, rockets work.

The only way to not have rockets work in a vacuum is to claim that the gas remains inside the rocket. But then you don't have the gas leaving the rocket so it is back to pushing outwards in all directions, in which case it is pushing the rocket forwards and again rockets need to work.


And with your diagrams you are yet to show one which either shows how the gas leaves in a vacuum or how the rocket moves in the air. You have no lines of force pushing your rocket forwards and have completely unbalanced (i.e. no reactionary forces) lines of force acting on your gas.

In short, like always you have no explanation.

But I expect you will just ignore this yet again.

No, you claimed that the ISS could not withstand the stress of 14.7 psia (almost exactly 1 Bar) inside and 0 psia (the vacuum of space) outside.

So I showed a photo of a tank that has a working pressure of 4 Bar above the outside pressure. That tank is regularly pressure tested to 4 Bar.

If a tank like than can be built to withstand 6 x the pressure difference experienced by the ISS why should the ISS present an engineering problem?

The pressure in the tanks has to be enough to feed the fuel to the fuel pumps.

So the five generated a total thrust of just over 3,450,000 kg.force.
And the launch mass of the Saturn V was 2,970,000 kg so why would it "not get off the ground"?

Yes there is. Pay attention to it.
Technically you are right, but it is pushing it backwards, not forwards, and thus doesn't work as an explanation, and isn't balanced in any way.

You showed me a tank that works under atmospheric conditions, noit in your space.
The absolute pressure doesn't matter. What does is the differential.
That is what produces a force on the skin of the tank.

1. It would need to be of a certain thickness of metal skin to hold in the near 15 psi of pressure and don't even bother to pretend it's a nothing.
And what certain thickness is that?
An aluminium drink can can hold considerable pressure.

2. A hole punctured into the so called ISS, even a small hole would depressurise extremely quickly against near  zero resistance.
I showed you why with the thermos nib.
You "showed us why" by completely ignoring the scale.

A small hole would take a long time to depressurise because the gas has mass and thus won't just magically accelerate out instantly.

There would be none of this slow hissing like you'd get in normal atmospheric conditions we are used to, because your so called vacuum would be vast and not allow any resistance to escaping internal pressure.
That is only your delusional fantasy. Back in reality, all the atmosphere does is determine the pressure differential. The gas itself is what creates the resistance, as it can't just magically fly out.

Bring my amendment to that diagram up and take a little bit of time to see where the reaction to action is.
It is quite clear where it is. You have the main force acting on the gas, with the gas being pushed backwards by pure magic and then being pushed forwards by the atmosphere.

Now how about you stop all the BS and address the issue you have continually been avoiding.
You claim that rockets can't work in space because there is nothing for it to use as leverage and that you need atmosphere for motion.
Yet you also claim the gas leaves the rocket, even though that motion would be impossible according to your claims about the rocket.
How does the gas magically leave the rocket without the rocket working? What is the gas pushing against?

Rubbish! There is nothing magic about a vacuum and in this case the tiny hole limits the flow and with a pressure difference of only 14.7 psi the hole could be temporarily sealed with a bit of suitable tape, which the do have on the ISS for just that.

Yep, so tell me how they built this mock up?

Possibly but they would never have to finish the mock-up to the standards needed for putting into space.

If internal pressure is 6 bar, then the resultant is 5 bar.
It means that the tank can withstand pressure difference of 5 bar (or more, but it was not tested).

If the habitat of the ISS is under pressure of 1 bar, and external pressure is 0 bar,

If the common technology can routinely produce the tank that can withstand at least 5 bar,

But that's just the point. The argument is about extreme low pressure against atmospheric pressure, whether inside pressure being 15 psi against extreme low pressure or external pressure being 15 psi against extreme internal low pressure/or the tank I put up.

Either way you have a severe problem and would also have it even worse if you pit a so called ISS against so called space vacuum with internal pressure of around 15 psi.

Sorry, this dictates otherwise...and that's reality.
An "ISO Tank Container" is designed to fit the space of a standard 40' ISO shipping container and has a similar diameter to the ISS is tested at 6 Bar, i.e. 6 x normal atmospheric pressure.
Quote
The most common type of tank is UN type T11 which can carry more than 1000 types of dangerous goods. T11 tanks are the most common tank in use, tested to 6 bars of pressure and have a working pressure of 4 bar. (Qualitank keep a number of tanks available which have current valid test certificates.)
This sort of thing:
(https://qualitank.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/RIMG1717.jpg)
So why do you find it hard to believe that the ISS cannot withstand an internal pressure of only 14.7 psia?

There's nothing magic about a vacuum - as far as stresses are concerned it's nothing more than a region of almost zero pressure.
A similar-sized structure on earth with an internal pressure of 29.4 psi would be subject to the same stresses.
That "ISO Tank Container" can withstand 6 Bar (87 psi) above atmospheric pressure on Earth.
Why should it be difficult to make a similar diameter container to withstand only 14.7 psi in a vacuum on Earth or in space?

How big would the saturn V tank be to hold the pressure?
Who brought the Saturn V into it? We were talking about the ISS.
But "the LOX tank was maintained at 18 to 23 psia during flight" and I can't find the pressures in the RP-1 tank but it was probably similar.
The pressure in the tanks has to be enough to feed the fuel to the fuel pumps.
Ok so forget the Saturn V and work out what rockets took up those massive sections. Was it all shuttles?

So the five generated a total thrust of just over 3,450,000 kg.force.
And the launch mass of the Saturn V was 2,970,000 kg so why would it "not get off the ground"?

Quote properly instead of using snippets and answering them without meaning or you'll get this back and waste your own time.
The only one wasting time here is you.
You continually provide the same refuted garbage and baseless claims and do whatever you can to avoid the key issues which shows your claims to be pure garbage.

Let me make this abundantly clear.

Is that clear enough?
Yes, quite clear. You either have no idea what you are talking about or you are blatantly lying to everyone.
Notice how that has a lower pressure inside, not a higher pressure?
Like I said before (and provided a simple experiment you can do yourself), tanks like that are much more capable of withstanding high pressure inside as that requires literally tearing it apart as opposed to a lower pressure inside which just requires buckling the container.

So this either shows that you have no idea what you are talking about as you do not understand the importance of the directionality of that force and thus this example doesn't show anything to support you, or you are lying because you know that doesn't support you yet you still present it as if it does.

Like I said, go get a simple plastic drinking bottle. Then suck all the air out and you easily crush the bottle. But try breathing into it all you want and you will find that you can't break the bottle at all.

Another simple example is a sheet of paper. Try holding something with a sheet of paper, and seeing just how much weight is required to break it, making sure the paper is fixed at the top and the weight is at the bottom.
Then try doing it again with the weight at the top and the paper fixed and the bottom. You will find it takes a lot less weight to have the weight at the top fall than it does to have the paper be torn apart.

The argument is about extreme low pressure against atmospheric pressure, whether inside pressure being 15 psi against extreme low pressure or external pressure being 15 psi against extreme internal low pressure/or the tank I put up.
No, the actual point is that those 2 scenarios are very different. The directionality of the force matters. You equating the 2 shows you don't understand or are lying.
The equivalent scenarios would be a tank at 2 bar in the atmosphere and a tank at 1 bar in a vacuum. In both cases there is a pressure differential of 1 bar.

Another set of equivalent scenarios would be a tank at 1 bar (kept at one bar by adding or removing gas as needed) in an atmosphere at 2 bar, vs a tank under vacuum in an atmosphere of 1 bar.

And you still don't understand that it isn't the same. The direction matters. That rail tank could withstand the pressure difference in the other direction easily, just as the ISS could.
The rail tank dictates otherwise...and that's reality.

In order for that to be true you would need to have that tank full of 1 atm of pressure and put it in a vacuum. Until you do that you cannot honestly say that it dictates otherwise. Again, you are relying upon your fantasy to try and reject reality.

Meanwhile, my simple experiment with a water bottle or sheet of paper shows otherwise, that the directionality matters, because an object under tension behaves differently to an object under compression.

Now again, why not address the key issue?
How does the gas leave the rocket in a vacuum, when you have declared that such motion is impossible?
Again, it needs to push against something, and the only thing available is the rocket, meaning the rocket would be pushed and work in a vacuum.
Until you actually address this, your claim will remain pure fantasy and the reality of rockets working in a vacuum will remain unchallenged.

It doesn't show the other direction because the tank is under atmospheric pressure.

Let's make this even plainer.
What do you think would happen to that tank if pressurised and placed in an extreme low pressure environment and punctured?


Let me give you a few hints.

If that tank had a puncture whilst under pressure, against normal atmospheric pressure external to it, you would lose pressure against that resistance. It would be a pretty fast release but the release would be resisted and it would take a good while for the tank to be emptied.

Place that same tank in an extreme low pressure environment and you have very little resistance to the pressure inside getting out of that puncture hole, meaning you would have a massive exodus of air pressure, losing that pressure in that container in extreme short order.


The very same would happen if you reverse it, as in the tank in the picture being evacuated and put into extreme low pressure internally with the evacuated air adding to the pressure externally which will eventually crush the tank....but....but.....if you punctured a hole in that tank before it buckled, it would immediately fill with external atmosphere from what was taken from it, just like the snapped nib of a thermos.

Your space stuff is fantasy and will remain sci-fi.

As far as any stresses on a container are concerned it makes not the slightest difference whether

The stress on a tank, a tyre or the ISS depends only on the difference in pressure.

No, the tank collapsed because the pressure outside (about 15 psia) was too much more than the pressure inside so the sides buckled.

But if the pressure inside were greater than the pressure outside the stresses would have tensile and the sides could not buckle.

A standard rail tanker car like this can "operate at pressures up to 600 PSI":

It rests on the gases it ejects against gases it compresses into.
The rocket itself balances on the gas fight.
Like  hovercraft sits on its cushion of air, so does the rocket.
The only difference is in the mass of expansion to compression build at all times for the rocket and the massive fact that the rocket expends it's fuel in massive amounts to enable it to sit on that gas on gas fight as it'#s pushed up.

Pretty simple really but it will be extremely difficult for people to grasp who hold the thought that a rocket can actually kick itself up its own arse consistently to gain altitude without using any atmosphere in order to do so.

If this were the case then you would see the rockets exhaust gases impacting against this condensed layer and being deflected in some way.

In reality this is not observed in any way.

Post by: JackBlack on December 30, 2019, 01:24:30 PM
What do you think would happen to that tank if pressurised and placed in an extreme low pressure environment and punctured?
It would vent, over a considerable time depending on how large the hole is and how much gas is in there. As this gas has changed velocity it would necessitate a force to act upon it and thus a reactionary force and thus it would also move the tank.

What do you think would happen?
According to you, motion requires the atmosphere and something to push off. You also claim that isn't there in the vacuum of space. So according to you, all the gas needs to remain inside as it can't leave the tank as it has nothing to push off and there is no atmosphere around it.

Repeatedly asserting your fantasy as fact will not help you.

Gas has mass. That means it will resist motion. That means it can't just magically accelerate out of a container. That means the gas itself will provide resistance.

There is also a simple way you can test this.
Try getting a tank of compressed gas, placed in a very large pressure container (such that the release of gas from the tank wont significantly change the pressure) where you can change the pressure.
Then go and try different combinations of pressures inside the tank and container, and see what effect it has on the release of the gas.
If you do you will find the pressure differential is what is important as that determines how much gas needs to flow, and also how the gas will accelerate.

Also, do you not notice the hypocrisy? You object to the high flow rates of fuel for rocket engines, yet you are fine pretending that the gas should leave almost instantly?

Tanks like that can hold 26000 l, yet you claim it all leaves extremely quickly, where if we assume it takes 1 second, that would be a flowrate of 26000 l/s, all through a tiny pinprick.

Your rejection of space will remain a fantasy.

Nobody's asking for it to be broken from the inside. It's irrelevant at this point of argument.
No, you are. You are acting like this shows a massive problem for the ISS because it is exposed to a vacuum. The only way for it to be a problem is if you are suggesting the vacuum will cause it to fail, as the vacuum inside the tank did in the video.
But unless you are claiming the vacuum will crush it that means the gas inside will cause it to be broken from the inside.
So unless the video is just irrelevant garbage, you are asking for it to be broken from the inside.

Pay close attention to it.
(https://i.postimg.cc/tTW8dtv5/rocket-propulsion-reg-0.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)
Still no arrow of force acting on the rocket or balloon to push it forward.
It was a very simple request.
Draw a green arrow clearly indicating where the force is being transferred to the rocket and balloon to move it to the left.
Note:
This must be an arrow which touches the rocket.

If you don't like it just observe and say nothing.
No, I will continue to call out your BS, even if you continually ignore me. It just shows that you really have no case, and that you know you are here lying to everyone. You know your claims are pure garbage which cannot withstand any form of rational scrutiny, yet you continue to spout them, knowingly lying to everyone here.

You people need to sort out your own because none of yours makes any sense of reality.
If none of it makes any sense, why is it capable of explaining so many observations?
Why are you completely unable to show any problem with it?
All you seem to be able to do is dismiss it as false and assert fantasy instead, fantasy which is easily contradicted by actual experiments?

It is your nonsense which makes no sense at all.
You repeatedly contradict yourself.
You claim that motion requires something to push against and the atmosphere, yet you then go straight out and reject that and claim that things can still move without that.
You try to have motion with no force acting on the object, yet pretend there is no problem.

Try to actually come up with a coherent model which can actually explain things and which doesn't contradict itself.

Again, try telling us what happens to a tube, open at one end, filled with compressed gas, in a vacuum.
Does the gas stay put?
If so, then by your own claims it will be exerting pressure against the tube and thus push the tube away.
If not, then how does it leave when you claim such motion would require the atmosphere and something to use as leverage? The only thing available to use as leverage is the tube, meaning the tube would move.
Either way, it clearly shows rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

If you wish to disagree come up with an idea of what happens with a clear and simple explanation which does not contradict itself and clearly explains why the gas can leave but the tube can't move, or how the gas stays trapped in an open container and how that doesn't then push the rocket away.

Until you have such an explanation, you have literally nothing to back up your insane claims and nothing to challenge the reality of rockets working in space.

Quote from: rabinoz
So I showed a photo of a tank that has a working pressure of 4 Bar above the outside pressure. That tank is regularly pressure tested to 4 Bar.
You showed me a tank that works under atmospheric conditions, noit in your space.

If a tank is in atmosphere, then the external pressure is 1 bar.
If internal pressure is 6 bar, then the resultant is 5 bar.
It means that the tank can withstand pressure difference of 5 bar (or more, but it was not tested).

If the habitat of the ISS is under pressure of 1 bar, and external pressure is 0 bar,
then the resultant is 1 bar, which is 4 bar weaker.

If the common technology can routinely produce the tank that can withstand at least 5 bar,
then why the Space technology wouldn't produce the tank that withstands 1 bar? :)
Let me make this abundantly clear.



Is that clear enough?

It is to me.
Looks like it is not to you.

The tank shown in your video can be pumped back to the shape.
The material is still whole, only bent.
To break it from inside you need much higher pressure difference.

So: do you really don't understand it?
Or you already understand but hope we can be deceived so easily?
Nobody's asking for it to be broken from the inside. It's irrelevant at this point of argument.
The argument is the puncture hole and release of internal pressure to supposed space of zero resistance to it.

You're arguing it without knowing what you're arguing against.

So, to illustrate the higher internal pressure case and a puncture,
you use the video where internal pressure is "extremely low" and there is no puncture?

LOL

If this were the case then you would see the rockets exhaust gases impacting against this condensed layer and being deflected in some way.

In reality this is not observed in any way.
The rocket burn, which you call exhaust, which is not exhaust at that point, compresses the atmosphere below that burn by massively expanding into it.
This creates a massive resistance and spring back against that burn every nano second, kind of thing. The rocket rests on this gas fight and is pushed up.

If you want to use your imagination then picture atmospheric warping or basically making a dent in the stack through massive expansion of gas burning, compressing that stack and making a delve through direct action into that area.

To make this easier to visualise just picture what happens on water when gases expand into it. It creates a delve. A cup because the water is pushed away leaving that delve which crushes right back.

The only difference here is, it's atmosphere being pushed away and compressed.

The rocket you people adhere to has no rational explanation for how it works.

You need to pay attention.
The gas is compressed and it's that compression being allowed to decompress being the reason why the gas pushes into a resistance, externally.

Nope. I use that video as a simple proof of what 15 psi is capable of if you take away equilibrium as would be if there was a so called ISS against a so called space vacuum.

From this point on I'm also arguing that a puncture in this scenario would decompress the so called ISS is super short order, killing all onboard who would have zero chance to plug the hole nor get into any such suit to survive.

The only thing that wouldn't happen is explosive decompression because there would be zero external reaction to the internal decompressive action. meaning the container would almost empty until the remaining gases/air simply had zero compressive force and became dormant or ice.

Put basically, it would not have the ability to further decompress meaning, theoretically you'd have a large continuous line of ice extending from the hole due to immediate ceasing of expansion external to it due to zero resistance to it.

Nope. I use that video as a simple proof of what 15 psi is capable of if you take away equilibrium as would be if there was a so called ISS against a so called space vacuum.

Apparently the 15 PSI can collapse the tank, and still can't damage the material.
(And can't do anything to the tank when presses from inside - hehe)

Now tell us why much higher pressure (say, 100 PSI) can't pop a bicycle tire?
The 100 PSI from inside is 85 PSI more than the 15 PSI from outside.

Quote
Proper tire pressure lets your bike roll quickly, ride smoothly, and avoid flats.
Narrow tires need more air pressure than wide ones:
Road tires typically require 80 to 130 psi (pounds per square inch)

And when you evacuate air from the tire and make vacuum it gets squeezed inwards. :)

You can clearly see it.
No, we can't.
You do not have any arrow of force acting on the balloon or rocket to move it forwards.

This was a very simple request which you completely failed to do.

The real issue is, you nor anyone else can provide a diagram that shows where your transference of force is.
Did you mean can't?
Because you were provided with plenty of diagrams showing the transfer of force. The "problem" was that it showed that your claims were nonsense.
The real problem is that you are rejecting reality and trying to replace it with pure nonsense and thus need to avoid extremely simple requests like this and simple questions/issues which destroy your claims.

This creates a massive resistance and spring back against that burn every nano second, kind of thing.
As has been said by me and others plenty of times. If that was the case, you would see the exhaust being pushed forwards of the rocket or at the very least blowing straight out to the sides, not backwards.

Also like I had said, if that were true, MOTION THROUGH THE AIR WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE!
Any time you tried to move through the air you would compress it which would cause it to spring back and push you backwards.

This is never observed. So that clearly isn't the case at all.

The rocket you people adhere to has no rational explanation for how it works.
If that was true you would have been able to show a problem with the explanation rather than just repeatedly dismissing it.

You need to pay attention.
No, you need to come up with a coherent model and actually address the numerous issues you have been avoiding rather than just repeatedly spouting the same refuted garbage.

The gas is compressed and it's that compression being allowed to decompress being the reason why the gas pushes into a resistance, externally.
No, it is the fact that gas has mass and, like everything with a mass, thus resists changes in its motion. This is needed in order for the air to be able to provide resistance. If it didn't, then you would be freely able to move through the air with no resistance at all, and that means the gas pushing out wouldn't create any resistance.

But I understand, you need to do whatever you can to avoid this fact of reality, as admitting it means admitting that almost everything you have said in this thread has been a blatant lie.

Nope. I use that video as a simple proof of what 15 psi is capable of if you take away equilibrium as would be if there was a so called ISS against a so called space vacuum.
And as already pointed out, YOU FAILED!
That is showing what a 15 PSI differential, with a greater pressure on the outside can do, i.e. cause steel to buckle.
It in no way indicates any problem with 15 PSI on the inside.

From this point on I'm also arguing that a puncture in this scenario would decompress the so called ISS is super short order, killing all onboard who would have zero chance to plug the hole nor get into any such suit to survive.
No, you aren't. You are baselessly asserting it.
You have absolutely no basis for that assertion at all.
To argue it you would need an argument, i.e. a line of reasoning to reach the conclusion.

What is required is for people to take some time to understand just how the dupe works and understand why it is not reality.
I think I'm showing that.
Only if by "showing that" you mean showing that what you are providing is the dupe, not reality.
You aren't demonstrating any problem with reality, nor are you presenting a viable alternative. Meanwhile we are all doing quite well and showing problems with your dupe.

Now care to address the issue you have been avoiding from the start?

How does the gas leave the tube? Again, you have declared that such motion is impossible.
You need to explain how the gas can leave the tube, while the rocket can't move.

Until you do, you have nothing.

Pretty simple really but it will be extremely difficult for people to grasp who hold the thought that a rocket can actually kick itself up its own arse consistently to gain altitude without using any atmosphere in order to do so.

If this were the case then you would see the rockets exhaust gases impacting against this condensed layer and being deflected in some way.

In reality this is not observed in any way.
The rocket burn, which you call exhaust, which is not exhaust at that point, compresses the atmosphere below that burn by massively expanding into it.
This creates a massive resistance and spring back against that burn every nano second, kind of thing. The rocket rests on this gas fight and is pushed up.

If you want to use your imagination then picture atmospheric warping or basically making a dent in the stack through massive expansion of gas burning, compressing that stack and making a delve through direct action into that area.
Once the burnt propellant has left the rocket and become the exhaust gases they no longer can have any effect on the the rocket.
The area travelling much faster than the speed of sound in that gas so no influence can flow upstream. If you don't understand that then you don't know the very first thing about supersonic aerodynamics.

So all your mish-mash is black arrows is just so much graffiti.

Here is one way to look at it. All you need are these two arrows:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/vy31n4q5nhm027h/Rocket%20engine%20forces.jpg?dl=1)
A force to the right is needed to accelerate the burnt propellant from zero to the exhaust velocity.
The reaction to that force, a force to the left, is the thrust pushing the rocket and note that the air outside never came into it.

It's so simple a child could understand but a "smart person", like you, with a "narrative" (you cannot allow rockets to work in space) can never accept it.

Gas has mass. That means it will resist motion. That means it can't just magically accelerate out of a container. That means the gas itself will provide resistance.

You need to pay attention.
The gas is compressed and it's that compression being allowed to decompress being the reason why the gas pushes into a resistance, externally.

So the compressed gas (exhaust), which has a higher pressure then uncompressed gas, is decompressing.  During that decompression, the high pressure gas is interacting with the atmosphere (uncompressed/low pressure gas), which is then providing enough resistance for the high pressure exhaust to move the rocket.

Is that accurate?

rocket?
Colour it green or something so everybody knows.
Why talk so mysteriously.
Make yourself plainly and obviously clear.
Pay close attention to it.

Thanks for updating it.
You still, very clearly, have no physical force line directly pushing on the rocket/ balloon itself causing it to move.
It rests on the gases it ejects against gases it compresses into.
The rocket itself balances on the gas fight.
Like  hovercraft sits on its cushion of air, so does the rocket.

Yes
Its very simple.
There is the balloon or rocket and it is moving because a transferrance of force.
Show that arrow.
You show nothing directly pushing it forward (to the left)
You can clearly see it.
The real issue is, you nor anyone else can provide a diagram that shows where your transference of force is.

clearly see what?
the arrow
phsycially contacting the rocket body
where is it?
i see no arrow ON the rocket, POINTING left
maybe colour the ONE arrow, ON the rocket, POINT left, Blue or something

Clearly the exhaust gas is a high pressure gas as it is decompressing.  The atmosphere is clearly at a lower pressure (You can't decompress into a higher pressure).  The higher pressure gas (exhaust) is meeting resistance from the lower pressure gas (atmosphere).

As you said, the rocket sits on top of the gas.  If the gas stacks and moves upward, the rocket which sits on top of it thus moves upward.

Try paying attention yourself.
The only person clinging to gas on gas is you.

We want to know WHAT IS PUSHING THE ROCKET!
You are yet to demonstrate that at all.
So far all your arrow is doing is pushing the gas to the left, not the rocket.

Draw in an arrow indicating where the rocket is being pushed to the left.

See how in the earlier version of the picture that was provided to you before you doctored it, the picture provided by Rab, and the picture provided by me there is an arrow of force acting on the rocket, pushing it to the left?

You need something akin to that, an arrow pushing the rocket to the left.

But don't worry, we all understand why you refuse to do this, or even admit there is a problem.
The only thing available to provide that force is the gas.
That means if you do show the arrow you would be admitting that the gas is applying a force to the rocket, even though it is leaving the rocket. That is effectively admitting that the gas can apply a force to the rocket, even while it is leaving the rocket, and thus effectively admitting that rockets do work in a vacuum, and you can't have that.

What I put is correct. What you put is complete hogwash.
If that was the case we wouldn't be so easily able to destroy your claims by asking such simple questions like "where is the arrow of force that is accelerating the rocket to the left?" and you would easily be able to point out problems with what we are saying rather than dismissing it as hogwash.
You would also be able to address very simple questions, like in a vacuum, how does the gas leave the tube when you have clearly indicated that such motion is impossible as you claim there is nothing to push off.

Yes the atmosphere is at a lower pressure initially in the area that's directly in line with the thrust/super decompression from the rocket gas BURN. Not exhaust.

Start thinking back to the trampoline. The delve and the spring back against the energy applied to that trampoline.
Simply use that train of thought when thinking about the atmospheric stack against the thrust of the burning gas.

There's a massive difference in what you say and it has to be addressed so people understand the difference between a rocket thrusting it's compressive gases into a BURN and the exhaust immediately after that BURN.

Just so people do understand. The Burn is the effort. It's the super expansion of gases already expanding from the rocket. It's just clearing a bigger path or making sure there's a much lower pressure to allow that decompression into to quickly compress it in order to create a massive reaction to that overall action from that rocket.

That reaction becomes the fight in that area.
The exhaust is the plume from the burn, which serves no forceful purpose of its own.

Take some time to absorb this.

Way back in 1903 Konstantin Tsiolkovsky developed the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation based that same basic idea that I've been presenting.

Then in 1926 Robert H. Goddard started build liquid fueled rockets as described in  Robert H. Goddard's "A METHOD OF REACHING EXTREME ALTITUDES". (http://www2.clarku.edu/research/archives/pdf/ext_altitudes.pdf)
And he had great trouble convincing some that rockets did not need air to push on.

Post by: JackBlack on January 03, 2020, 01:44:01 PM
Start thinking back to the trampoline.
Sure, think back to a trampoline and compare how that works with what is observed for the rocket.
According to you, the rocket is like your head and torso and the exhaust is like your legs.
Your legs push into the trampoline, stretching it out, putting it under tension, until it stops you and then pushes you (entirely) back up. Technically it pushes your legs upwards, which in turn push your body upwards. This applies from the moment you land on the trampoline until the moment you leave it.
According to you, it shouldn't do that, instead your legs should pass through the trampoline while your torso is pushed up. This makes no sense at all and is contradicted by simple observation.
Noting the real life observation of your entire body being pushed up, this would lead any sane, rational person to conclude that if the same principle was at work with a rocket, with the exhaust taking the place of your legs, then the exhaust should be pushed up, towards the rocket, and it is still the exhaust that is pushing the rocket up.

They are really the 2 key parts:
It is still the exhaust gas pushing the rocket up, and more importantly, if this was actually what was happening, the exhaust would be thrown up with the rocket, not flying out behind it.

Pay attention.
Again, FOLLOW YOUR OWN ADVICE!
You were clearly asked for something very simple, something which is needed if you want any hope of your ideas about rocket motion to be correct.
Ultimately something needs to be pushing the rocket. In order for your ideas to be correct you need to be able to show and explain what that is. You need to be able to draw on that diagram and arrow of force indicating what is pushing the rocket.

This is a very simple request. If you actually cared about the truth and having a model that works, you would either provide it or tell people that you have no idea at all and that you cannot explain how rockets work.
Instead you just insult people and tell them to pay attention.

They have a higher thrust against extreme lo0w pressure because there's very little reactionary resistance to the thrust.
Yes, there is little resistance to that thrust, so what? Once it is thrust they have already gotten what they can out of it.
It is the generation of that that thrust, the expelling of the gas at a high velocity, which causes the rocket to move.

It's a near one way street which creates next to zero reaction to the action.
This is literally impossible.
All action must have an equal and opposite reaction.
The only way for the gas to accelerate is by pushing off the rocket, which causes the rocket to accelerate as well.
To say otherwise you would need to say that you don't action and reaction to move, that things can just accelerate, without pushing against anything, which would mean all your objections to rockets working in space amount to nothing at all.

The Burn is the effort. It's the super expansion of gases already expanding from the rocket.
No, the expansion primarily occurs in the rocket, rapidly accelerating the gas with it then leaving at a very high velocity.

The action and reaction occurs inside the nozzle.
Once it has left the nozzle it is no longer capable of interacting with the rocket and pushing it forwards. That is why you have been repeatedly to draw where the rocket is being pushed forwards.

I mean those that are after the reality, not the fiction you adhere to.
It is quite clear from your actions that you are the one adhering to fiction here.

And that's what really happens.
It happening or not is irrelevant to the question at hand and irrelevant to the discussion.

The rocket is just the holder of one set of gases against the atmosphere.
As long as that rocket can allow extreme expansion against the atmosphere to extremely compress it for that atmosphere to extremely push back, you get the gas on gas fight and that pushes the rocket up.
All the rocket does is sit ion that fight. Just sits there.
HOW?
How does the rocket get pushed up?
That is what you have repeatedly failed to address.
You just assert the same nonsense of "gas on gas fight"
Well guess what? The rocket isn't involved in that and thus can't be pushed up by it.
If it is just gas-on-gas, that means there is no force on the rocket, and the rocket will not move.

In order to have the rocket move you need to have something other than that gas on gas fight, you need to have a force act on the rocket. That is what you are repeatedly refusing to show, and like I have already pointed out, it is quite clear why. The only thing available to provide that force is the gas inside the rocket, but that would mean admitting all your prior claims are pure garbage and accepting that gas will continue to push outwards in all directions, even when leaving a container, which would then mean accepting that rockets do work in space, which then destroys the main argument you have against photos from space which is just a step away from accepting Earth isn't flat, and you can't handle that.

And of course, yet again, you ignore the very simple issue that shows your entire argument is nothing more than infantile nonsense.
Again, how does the gas magically leave the tube in a vacuum, without allowing the rocket to move?

Let me ask them, what is the difference between the way a rocket operates in the atmosphere and in a vacuum?
In the atmosphere the external pressure means that the burnt propellant cannot expand as much as it can in a vacuum.

This reduces the exit velocity of the burnt propellant at sea-level and hence the thrust.

Quote from: hoppy

Sure, there is "a big difference in rocket power in 2 totally different mediums".

As explained above rocket engines produce quite a deal more thrust in a vacuum than at sea-level.

I hope you can follow this line of reasoning.

Skeppy you are doing a good and Noble work explaining reality to these brainwashed stooges. Let me ask them, what is the difference between the way a rocket operates in the atmosphere and in a vacuum?
 Surely there should be a big difference in rocket power in 2 totally different mediums.

That "big" difference is about 15 PSI, which is 1 bar.

Internal pressure of F-1 engine is 70 bar.
In vacuum the difference is 70 bar.
At sea level the difference is 69 bar.

Obviously, the pressure difference in vacuum is about 1.5% higher, with higher exhaust exit velocity which gives more engine thrust.

Gas on gas.
Pay attention.

So, no rocket, just gasses? :)

Wow. Is this all you have left.
 ::)

What more do you need? :)

It all boils down to the one simplest thing:
Is there any force by rocket, or on rocket?
Or just gasses push on each other without it?
Clearly the rocket sits on the gas fight at every stage of that gas fight.
The rocket is being pushed up on that continuous gas fight.
All the rocket is doing is decompressing fuel in order for the reaction of external atmosphere to do it's job.

No, YOU haven't been paying attention! The expansion of gases while IN the rocket engine is all that matters.
Once those gases have left the rocket they can have no further effect on the rocket. If you claim otherwise you are simply proving that you have no understanding of supersonic flow.
Once the gases have burned, I agree they have no more use. The point is, they burn external to the rocket and work against atmosphere.
It's pretty simple to understand why this is needed but it is not pretty simple to accept the nonsense you adhere to about not needing atmosphere.
Quote from: rabinoz

Quote from: sceptimatic
It's just clearing a bigger path or making sure there's a much lower pressure to allow that decompression into to quickly compress it in order to create a massive reaction to that overall action from that rocket.

That reaction becomes the fight in that area.
SO YOU say but, as I've said, if there's any fight it can have no effect on the rocket - it's gone!
Nope.

Quote from: rabinoz

Quote from: sceptimatic
The exhaust is the plume from the burn, which serves no forceful purpose of its own.
Take some time to absorb this.
Absorbing what you say is easy but believing it is another matter. You only write what you imagine happens and imagination is not enough.
The exhaust is the gas as soon as it has left the rocket engine bell. After that, it serves no forceful purpose.
Once the exhaust becomes smoke, its served its purpose and not until.

Quote from: sceptimatic
Not you Rab, I mean those that are after the reality, not the fiction you adhere to.
I'm certainly after reality and in the basics of how a rocket I'm certain that I have it and what I have explains what happens in reality.
But you have to deny observed reality because it does not fit the narrative that you have dreamed up about reality.

Reality is under not obligation to follow your dreams. Reality is there to be discovered by observation and experiment.

Get used to it!
I will not get used to anything other than getting used to knowing rockets require atmospheric pressure to work.
The stuff you put forward from your mainstream books, is basically fiction.


Quote from: rabinoz

But I fail to see why believing you is any better than believing the experimental done on rocket engines dating back to at least the 1920's right through to the present time.
Nobody's asking you to believe me. I'm simply saying I don;t believe what you adhere to and I have my reasons, which I'm stating.
Feel free to discard anything I say.
Quote from: rabinoz

Way back in 1903 Konstantin Tsiolkovsky developed the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation based that same basic idea that I've been presenting.

Then in 1926 Robert H. Goddard started build liquid fueled rockets as described in  Robert H. Goddard's "A METHOD OF REACHING EXTREME ALTITUDES". (http://www2.clarku.edu/research/archives/pdf/ext_altitudes.pdf)
And he had great trouble convincing some that rockets did not need air to push on.
Of course because people weren't so indoctrinated as to be brainwashed into believing the nonsense.

How am I using exhaust wrong?  Propellant is burned in a combustion chamber.  Once it begins to leave the chamber it is exhaust.
No, not at all.
Once it leaves the nozzle as smoke/cloud then it is exhaust and not until.


Quote from: NotSoSkeptical

I know they are different, but I made no mention of thrust.  Since you want to bring it into the discussion, why don't you define both exhaust and thrust so I understand your point of view.  I wouldn't want to use a definition that is incorrect.
Put simply, the thrust is the violent expansion of gases and it's this violent expansion of gases that leaves the rocket under a burn that creates the massive violent compression of atmosphere from that violent expansion.
Once that atmosphere is compressed enough it creates the massive resistance to that thrust and ever lessening mass of fuel to keep pushing back onto that thrust for as long as the every lessening mass of the rocket fuel keeps violently thrusting into it.

Having zero resistance to that violent expansion means no reaction to it and no rocket movement.
Pretty basic and simple but it's cast aside in favour of nonsensical explanations in order for the fictional stories of space to be told as fact.

Post by: JackBlack on January 04, 2020, 01:43:36 AM
Let me ask them, what is the difference between the way a rocket operates in the atmosphere and in a vacuum?
Surely there should be a big difference in rocket power in 2 totally different mediums.
In the atmosphere, there is atmospheric drag. This reduces the effective thrust of the rocket.
Also, in the atmosphere, the exhaust cannot expand as much and thus the velocity will be less and thus the thrust will be lesser in the atmosphere.

Now, perhaps you can answer the question/address the issue that has been plaguing Jamas, Tom and Skepti?
You have a tube, with one end open and pressurised gas in it.
What happens?
Does the gas magically remain inside? If so how?
If not, doesn't this mean that the gas is accelerating and thus needs a force applied to it? (If not, why should a rocket need a force applied to move?)
Doesn't that then mean that it needs to interact with some other object and apply a force to it? (If not, again, why should a rocket need to?)
Isn't the only thing available the rocket? (If not, then why can't the rocket push off whatever else is available)?
Doesn't that then mean that the rocket will be pushed and thus accelerate as well?

Simple logical reasoning shows that rockets MUST work in a vacuum, or gas need to magically remain trapped in an open container.

Clearly the rocket sits on the gas fight at every stage of that gas fight.
The rocket is being pushed up on that continuous gas fight.
All the rocket is doing is decompressing fuel in order for the reaction of external atmosphere to do it's job.
Then draw in the arrow to show where it is getting pushed. That shouldn't be hard.

The point is, they burn external to the rocket and work against atmosphere.
The point is, THEY DON'T!
They burn inside the rocket, being ejected as plasma (i.e. hot, ionised gas, also known as fire).
They work against the rocket to leave the rocket, or else they would be trapped inside.

It's pretty simple to understand why this is needed but it is not pretty simple to accept the nonsense you adhere to about not needing atmosphere.
The one spouting nonsense here is you, as shown by you avoiding simple issues yet again and still refusing to put a simple arrow on your diagram because you know it refutes you.

There is no reason for it to need the atmosphere. Again, if that was the case then gas could be magically contained inside a tube that is open, just by having it in a vacuum.

I will not get used to anything other than getting used to knowing rockets require atmospheric pressure to work.
Then PROVE IT!
Address the massive issues plaguing your nonsense.
So far all the evidence and rational argument indicate that they do not require an atmosphere to work.

I'm simply saying I don;t believe what you adhere to and I have my reasons, which I'm stating.
No, you aren't stating your reasons. The only reason you have to dismiss rockets working in reality is because they show your fantasy to be wrong.
If you want to state the reason, then do so honestly.
You are yet to present any reason for why rockets can't work in a vacuum.

Put simply, the thrust is the violent expansion of gases and it's this violent expansion of gases that leaves the rocket under a burn that creates the massive violent compression of atmosphere from that violent expansion.
Once that atmosphere is compressed enough it creates the massive resistance to that thrust and ever lessening mass of fuel to keep pushing back onto that thrust for as long as the every lessening mass of the rocket fuel keeps violently thrusting into it.
Like I have said before, if this pile of garbage was true, you would see the exhaust being thrown in front of the rocket by the atmosphere.

Having zero resistance to that violent expansion means no reaction to it and no rocket movement.
Pretty basic and simple but it's cast aside in favour of nonsensical explanations in order for the fictional stories of space to be told as fact.
No, what is pretty basic is that the gas itself will provide that resistance. In order to have it so rapidly leave the rocket it will require a significant force and thus generate a significant reactionary force.

The arrows both sides of it show what I'm talking about in terms of action and reaction.
And it in no way shows any force on the rocket.

Yep, my resistance to his push.
He's using his internal energy to push me externally and my mass is creating a resistance to that push.
Just like the mass of the gas creates a resistance to that push, which pushes the rocket, without any need for the atmosphere.

I could make the drawing way more informative but I expected so called intelligent people to simply see what's what and somehow you can't.
No, we can easily see what's what.
The gas inside the rocket/nozzle is pushing on the rocket to move it forwards, because gas will always push outwards in all directions.
This means there is no need for the atmosphere.

An intelligent person would have made a diagram similar to the initial one before you decided to remove the truth from it and put fantasy there instead.

I still await the drawing from your side that shows what happens to a rocket in propulsion
You have been provided it plenty of times, with plenty of explanations. You are yet to demonstrate a single problem with it, and instead you just repeatedly dismiss it because you cannot accept rockets being real.

You are not correct in the slightest.

If you were correct, you would easily draw in the arrow showing where the force on the rocket is applied, but that would refute you.
If you were correct, you would easily explain what happens to the tube in the vacuum, and why, but that would refute you.
If you were correct, you would easily explain what is wrong with the diagrams that had been presented to you and the explanations which had been presented to you rather than dismissing them as hogwash.

No matter how much you lie and pretend, you will not magically be correct.

Let me ask them, what is the difference between the way a rocket operates in the atmosphere and in a vacuum?
In the atmosphere the external pressure means that the burnt propellant cannot expand as much as it can in a vacuum.

This reduces the exit velocity of the burnt propellant at sea-level and hence the thrust.

As explained above rocket engines produce quite a deal more thrust in a vacuum  extreme low pressure than at sea-level.

The thrust against extreme low pressure means the gas can expand much more, meaning it hits little resistance, meaning the rocket is a dead stick.

That's right. Once the burnt propellant has left the rocket engine it is just exhaust gases and can have no further effect on the rocket.

Here are the only forces that are significant.
In the diagram below force to the right is required to accelerate the burnt propellant from zero to the exit velocity.
That force is provided by the inside of the bell of the rocket engine and that force is the thrust on the rocket.

Whether there is sea-level air pressure or a vacuum outside has only a secondary effect on those forces.

My guess is that the compressed air, being contained by the elevator shaft, would push on all sides of the chamber (shaft) below the elevator car and push the car upwards. Ironically, this is exactly how submarine missiles are launched out of their tubes. But I digress.

However, this does not equal nor address how a rocket with stronger thrust pushes off of a weaker atmosphere as the atmosphere is not contained within a 'shaft' like the elevator car. So how is your thought process relevant to the rocket scenario and why?

Spent fuel.

How does a lower pressure gas resist a higher pressure gas to the point where the higher pressure gas stacks and pushes off it?
The lower pressure gas resists the higher pressure gas by being pressurised more by that higher pressure gas. It's action and reaction in equal terms.

What you put in, you get out.

So, there IS force between the rocket and the exhaust?
Forget the exhaust it has no bearing on the force, only the spent energy that created the force.

That's right. Once the burnt propellant has left the rocket engine it is just exhaust gases and can have no further effect on the rocket.

Here are the only forces that are significant.
In the diagram below force to the right is required to accelerate the burnt propellant from zero to the exit velocity.
That force is provided by the inside of the bell of the rocket engine and that force is the thrust on the rocket.

Whether there is sea-level air pressure or a vacuum outside has only a secondary effect on those forces.

Exactly but they cannot explain it except
Except that it has been repeatedly explained to you and you have literally no refutation against it so instead of even trying you just dismiss it as nonsense.

The thrust against extreme low pressure means the gas can expand much more, meaning it hits little resistance, meaning the rocket is a dead stick.
No, meaning it can expand more and accelerate more, meaning it provides more force to the rocket, meaning the rocket is anything but a dead stick.

Let's give you a though process.
Or how about you deal with the one I provided right at the start which you have still failed to address.

You have a tube, with one end open, in a vacuum. Inside the tube is highly pressurised gas.

Explain what would happen and why, making sure you also identify any source of leverage/push-on-push/action-reaction.
Draw the diagram and explain it and I'll copy it and add in what happens.
Over to you.

I know they are different, but I made no mention of thrust.  Since you want to bring it into the discussion, why don't you define both exhaust and thrust so I understand your point of view.  I wouldn't want to use a definition that is incorrect.
Put simply, the thrust is the violent expansion of gases and it's this violent expansion of gases that leaves the rocket under a burn that creates the massive violent compression of atmosphere from that violent expansion.
Once that atmosphere is compressed enough it creates the massive resistance to that thrust and ever lessening mass of fuel to keep pushing back onto that thrust for as long as the every lessening mass of the rocket fuel keeps violently thrusting into it.

Having zero resistance to that violent expansion means no reaction to it and no rocket movement.
Pretty basic and simple but it's cast aside in favour of nonsensical explanations in order for the fictional stories of space to be told as fact.

Here's where I always get confused: What is the level of atmospheric resistance versus the violent expansion of gases thrust from the rocket? Seemingly the thrust is far more powerful than the atmospheric resistance it is pushing against. Is the atmospheric resistance stronger, for lack of a better term, than the violent expansion of gases thrust from the rocket?
Let's give you a though process.

Imagine an elevator with a rocket nozzle on it that pumps compressed air into and imagine this elevator being a snug fit in the shaft.

What would happen if the compressed air was turned on under the elevator?

Explain what would happen and why.

My guess is that the compressed air, being contained by the elevator shaft, would push on all sides of the chamber (shaft) below the elevator car and push the car upwards. Ironically, this is exactly how submarine missiles are launched out of their tubes. But I digress.

However, this does not equal nor address how a rocket with stronger thrust pushes off of a weaker atmosphere as the atmosphere is not contained within a 'shaft' like the elevator car. So how is your thought process relevant to the rocket scenario and why?
But it is contained in the rocket scenario.
Why?
Because it's a direct thrust against the atmosphere that actually makes that delve into the stack below and compressing it, which basically caves in the atmosphere around it back against the exhausting burn.

If you want a better analogy then think of pushing a football into a bath of water. You make a delve by the energy you place on that football and that water you pushed away has made a minor stack compression, raising it or basically you seeing the bath level raise a bit due to that ball being pushed down against a resistance which became bigger when you thrust the ball into it and that resistance crushes back.


The atmosphere is doing the very same.

That is more like a compressed air "gun" not a rocket so the analogy is meaningless - try again.

Fule is burnt in the chamber, creating pressure and exhaust.
Rocket is pushing the exhaust out using pressure.
The exhaust has mass.
You can't push any mass without force.
And since every force has reaction, the reaction to this pushing force is the force that pushes back on the rocket.

You can use any other name while the "exhaust" is not yet outside.
For example, you can name it "exhaust-to-be".
But semantics won't change the operating principle.

You really can't think for yourself, can you?

Put your books down and think.
No, you wake up and do some serious thinking.

I do think and the projectile in the cannon or the "rocket" in the elevator shaft are pushed out by the force of the compressed air of the back of the projectile or the "rocket".

On the other hand, a rocket in space is pushed by the pressure of the burnt propellant on the inside of the rocket nozzle.

Just put some effort into thinking about that and then explain what is wrong with it.

Rocket engines work better in a vacuum than in air - get used to the real world.
If you disagree please tell us at what air pressure the rocket engine ceases to provide thrust because the rockets keep accelerating way above 100,000 feet where no winged aircraft can fly - just how is that possible?

PS You can also explain the thrust by using action-reaction and get the same result.

Draw the diagram and explain it and I'll copy it and add in what happens.
Over to you.
I already did. You then drew pure nonsense which was refuted straight away.
Here was the basic diagram showing the setup:
(https://i.imgur.com/mP5b3FP.png)

And here it is with some arrows of force drawn in:
(https://i.imgur.com/iTlCgNi.png)
The gas (in red) is under extreme pressure, and pushes outwards in all directions. This results in a force on the tube (in red, pointing left) with a reactionary force on the gas (in black, pushing right). You can even consider the gas right at the edge separately, where you have the high pressure gas pushing this thin layer (in magenta) to the right as indicated by the red arrow pointing right. This has a reactionary force shown by the purple arrow pointing left, pushing on the remaining gas.

Try actually providing a solution which doesn't have a force on the rocket, but still has the action-reaction pairs.
Remember, the gas needs to be pushing off something to move, or else there is no reason to assume the rocket needs to.

This is the massive problem you have been avoiding right from the start which clearly shows that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.
Title: Re: HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)
Post by: JackBlack on January 05, 2020, 12:43:47 PM
You see, a real exhaust is spent fuel.
Or expelled gas.
Words can have more than one meaning.

But yes, it is fairly spent when it becomes exhaust and leaves the rocket, no longer capable of providing any more thrust to the rocket.

Or are you going to refuse?
So far you have been the one repeatedly refusing to explain quite simple things, at least simple for those who don't reject reality.

That diagram makes no rational sense at all with how it's set out.
Then why are you completely incapable of pointing out any problem with it?

It seems to make perfect sense. The gas is pushing outwards in all directions. This results in the gas immediately adjacent to the nozzle pushing against the nozzle, providing a force to the rocket and pushing it forwards, while the gas is pushed backwards. Action and reaction. This makes perfect sense.
Importantly it has a force on the rocket to push it forwards.

Meanwhile your diagram makes no sense at all.
You have your action and reaction separated by a vast distance, and instead of being an action-reaction force, it is just 2 forces on the gas.
You haven't even bothered attempting to balance it and have a much greater force pushing the gas left than right, so it most certainly is not an action and reaction. These are 2 completely separate forces with no reactionary force in the diagram at all.

But most importantly, you have no force acting on the rocket itself.

This is why your rejection of reality remains pure fantasy.
You are completely incapable of explaining even extremely simple things.

In order for this to be an explanation of how a rocket works YOU NEED A FORCE ACTING ON THE ROCKET! YOU DO NOT HAVE ONE!
Do you understand that?

But it is contained in the rocket scenario.
No, it isn't.
In the rocket scenario the nozzle of the rocket is open. That means it is not contained.
Do you understand what contained means?

Because it's a direct thrust against the atmosphere that actually makes that delve into the stack below and compressing it, which basically caves in the atmosphere around it back against the exhausting burn.
If you want a better analogy then think of pushing a football into a bath of water. You make a delve by the energy you place on that football and that water you pushed away has made a minor stack compression, raising it or basically you seeing the bath level raise a bit due to that ball being pushed down against a resistance which became bigger when you thrust the ball into it and that resistance crushes back.
Like I said before, which you have repeatedly ignored, if this is actually what was happening then the exhaust would be getting pushed upwards by the atmosphere and be pushed in front of the rocket, or at the very least out to the sides.

So we can easily tell THAT ISN'T WHAT IS HAPPENING!
The atmosphere is not pushing the exhaust up to have it in turn push the rocket up.

Again, for a simple trampoline analogy, it would require your legs to pass through the trampoline while your body (which isn't touching the trampoline) get pushed up. It makes no sense at all.

What actually makes sense is the ejection of the exhaust at a high velocity requires a force which produces a reactionary force pushing the rocket.
Or if you like, the extremely high pressure gas pushes the rocket upwards.

Look at the exhaust stream of a real rocket and note that at sea-level it does not expand greatly into the atmosphere because the pressure in that exhaust stream in very little if any above atmospheric pressure.
Look at this when near sea-level:

Then, at high altitude and very low air-pressure:

Draw the diagram and explain it and I'll copy it and add in what happens.
Over to you.
I already did. You then drew pure nonsense which was refuted straight away.
Here was the basic diagram showing the setup:
(https://i.imgur.com/mP5b3FP.png)

And here it is with some arrows of force drawn in:
(https://i.imgur.com/iTlCgNi.png)
The gas (in red) is under extreme pressure, and pushes outwards in all directions. This results in a force on the tube (in red, pointing left) with a reactionary force on the gas (in black, pushing right). You can even consider the gas right at the edge separately, where you have the high pressure gas pushing this thin layer (in magenta) to the right as indicated by the red arrow pointing right. This has a reactionary force shown by the purple arrow pointing left, pushing on the remaining gas.

Try actually providing a solution which doesn't have a force on the rocket, but still has the action-reaction pairs.
Remember, the gas needs to be pushing off something to move, or else there is no reason to assume the rocket needs to.

This is the massive problem you have been avoiding right from the start which clearly shows that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.
Draw a diagram like I asked and explain it.

This isn't making any sense. How is the atmosphere contained like the elevator shaft when it's not contained?

How is the atmosphere compressed without containment? What's causing the atmosphere directly below the thrust of the rocket only to become rigid enough for it to push off of without containment? Do you have a diagram that explains this and why?
Its contained by atmosphere crushing back against the thrust.
Once that thrust is exhausting so does the containment.

Draw a diagram of what you think happens in the elevator shaft with the scenario I gave you and we'll go from there.
Why would I need to?

Surely simply explaining that, if the seal is good enough, the pressure air in the shaft  builds up until the force on the "rocket/projectile" is sufficient to expel it.

But that's totally irrelevant to a rocket tens of kilometres above the Earth. Why would I waste my time on irrelevancies?

Why would I waste my time? It has very little to do with a rocket!
You really can't think for yourself, can you?

Put your books down and think.
No, you wake up and do some serious thinking.

I do think and the projectile in the cannon or the "rocket" in the elevator shaft are pushed out by the force of the compressed air of the back of the projectile or the "rocket".

On the other hand, a rocket in space is pushed by the pressure of the burnt propellant on the inside of the rocket nozzle.

Just put some effort into thinking about that and then explain what is wrong with it.

Rocket engines work better in a vacuum than in air - get used to the real world.
If you disagree please tell us at what air pressure the rocket engine ceases to provide thrust because the rockets keep accelerating way above 100,000 feet where no winged aircraft can fly - just how is that possible?

PS You can also explain the thrust by using action-reaction and get the same result.

Several people told you how already:

Fule is burnt in the chamber, creating pressure and exhaust.
Rocket is pushing the exhaust out using pressure.
The exhaust has mass.
You can't push any mass without force.
And since every force has reaction, the reaction to this pushing force is the force that pushes back on the rocket.

You can use any other name while the "exhaust" is not yet outside.
For example, you can name it "exhaust-to-be".
But semantics won't change the operating principle.
Burning fuel is not exhaust.
Burned fuel is exhaust.

Two entirely different things.
Burning fuel creates the exhaust which is directed by the nozzle to the right (action force) : the reaction force is to the left ( moving the rocket ) as the exhaust leaves the nozzle.

Because it's not irrelevant, it's pertinent.
It shows how the elevator is resting on a gas on gas fight, just as the rocket would be, only in a different form, in terms of a burn to create the expansion to compression.

A rocket will fly as high as its fuel allows, which is not for long.
The reason why the rocket gains the height it does is due to loss of mass (fuel) whilst still thrusting against ever lessending resistance.
It marries up to keep that rocket atop the gas on gas fight.

Of course the atmosphere is weaker but the thrust is a direct hit into it and super compresses that atmosphere by the super expansion created by that burn.
It creates a containment because the atmosphere crushes back against that direct hit.
Underneath that direct hit is the delve into the atmosphere and that delve has to lose atmosphere. Where does it go?

Draw a diagram like I asked and explain it.
I did. I drew a diagram, I provided it here, I gave you an explanation of how it works in reality, completely with action-reaction pairs.
It is your turn now, in fact it has been for quite some time. EXPLAIN IT!
If you can't, then see if you can explain what is wrong with my explanation.

If you can't do either you have no basis for your claim that rockets cannot work in space, or that the mainstream explanation is wrong.

Its contained by atmosphere crushing back against the thrust.
If that was the case it wouldn't go far from the rocket. It would all be stuck at the nozzle.
Instead we can easily see it going very far from the rocket.

The atmosphere is not containing the gas.

A rocket will fly as high as its fuel allows, which is not for long.
For a tiny rocket it isn't long. For a much larger rocket, it lasts much longer, several minutes, long enough to get it to space.

The reason why the rocket gains the height it does is due to loss of mass (fuel) whilst still thrusting against ever lessending resistance.
No, the reason why it gains height is because the thrust produced is greater than the weight.
This thrust is produced as part of the action-reaction of expelling the gas at a high velocity.

The atmosphere is only far weaker until it becomes more pressurised. The massive expansion of burning fuel from the rocket sees to that massive pressurisation/compression.

Surely you are capable of understanding that.
Compressed air cannot magically compress the atmosphere to a pressure greater than it. The best you can do is go to a midway point.
That is because at this midway point, the 2 pressures are equal.
That means the compressed air will always be greater (or at best equal to) the pressure of the air (assuming it is higher to begin with). It cannot compress it higher to have it force it back.

But in reality, as there is no containment, then as soon as you compress the atmosphere slightly, it is going to move out of the way by compressing the air around it. It is not going to push back with a greater force.

You can easily see this with something even better than compressed gas, a solid object. If what you are saying is true, objects should not fall. They should compress the air and be pushed back and then just sit on the air.

All that air can do is slow the motion.

Surely you are capable of understanding that.

The rocket sits on the gas fight. What about that can't you understand?
The part where you diagram doesn't have an arrow of force acting on the rocket.
What force is acting on the rocket to move it?

The problem with you and others is, you can't or will not let go of that fictional space vacuum and to admit what I'm telling you will kill it off, so I well understand why you pretend you have no clue.
Again, you are projecting your own inadequcies.
Your problem is that you cannot let go of your FE fantasy, and rockets in space have put satellites in space which have taken pictures of Earth clearly showing it is round. So you need to reject rockets working in space as they kill of your FE fantasy. So we all understand why you pretend you have no clue.

The problem is you are unable to justify any of your claims or refute mainstream science.

Again, if you actually had a clue you would easily provide a diagram showing a force arrow on the rocket clearly explaining what is pushing it. But again, the only option is the gas, like the conventional diagrams, which would then mean it works in space.

Again, if you actually had a clue you would easily be able to refute mainstream explanations by clearly showing what is wrong, rather than pretending they haven't been provided or dismissing them as hogwash.

So again, it is quite clear who is clinging to fantasy.

Think of the water analogy in the bath to understand what I'm saying.
Why not stick to the trampoline?
Notice how you can easily place an object on the trampoline and have it stay there, rather than fall through?
Again, in order for it to work like you claim, when jumping on the trampoline you would need your feet to pass through it and your torso to go up, without any force acting on it.

Notice how stupid that sounds?

If you really want a water analogy, then do it properly, instead of a pathetic football, try a cannonball thrown at high speed. What happens? It breaks the surface of the water and quickly sinks, with the water just serving to slow it down.

You people need to pay attention and use your own brains.
Just put your fictional space rocket books down for a minute and pay attention.
Again, follow your own advice. We are using our brains, and that is what leads us to conclude your nonsense is nonsense.
Put away your fantasy of a FE, put away your fantasy of rockets not working in space and pay attention.
Actually try dealing with what has been said and address the issues raised, or just rationally think about them, and see what the logical conclusion is.

Again, you have a tube of compressed gas, with one end open (i.e a rocket), in a vacuum.
By simple understanding of forces, the force on the container from the gas is unbalanced and will result in a force towards the closed end, meaning rockets work in space.

Ignoring that and instead just focusing on a few simple questions:
1 - Does the gas leave? If not, then there is absolute no argument against the pressure argument above.
If so, that means the gas has accelerated.
2 - Does accelerating matter require a force? If not, that means no force is needed to accelerate the rocket and thus they work in space..
If so, that means there must be a force acting on the gas.
3 - Does this force need a reactionary force, or as you would say, leverage or something to push off? If not, then the rocket doesn't need one and can work in space.
If so, that means it must be pushing against something.
4 - What is it pushing against? If not the rocket, that means there is something else out there that the rocket can push against and thus work in a vacuum. If the rocket, that means the gas is pushing against the rocket and thus will accelerate the rocket.

No matter what choice is made, rockets work in space.

See, actually using your brain, in an honest, rational manner will inescapably lead to the conclusion that rockets work in space.

So stop telling us to use our brain, pay attention and put aside fictional nonsense.
Do that yourself. Put aside your fictional nonsense of a FE and rockets not working in space.
Pay attention to what has been said, the arguments put forwards and the issues raised.
And then use your brain, honestly and rationally, and see what the honest, rational conclusion is.

  • the nozzle (throat and bell) convert that very high pressure (70 to 300 Bar) burnt propellant into low pressure very high velocity gas and thrust

  • and the exit from the nozzle is the exhaust.
The thrust is the force necessary to accelerate that burnt propellant from it's very high pressure, Mach 1 velocity state to the [low pressure, hypersonic velocity state[/i] at the exit.

What's so hard about that?
There's nothing hard about it as long as the truth is told and what you're saying is not the whole truth.
No, I'm telling the the "whole truth" as far as I know it for the part of the thrust produced by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.
There is an extra component when the rocket is in low the pressure environment of space.

That extra thrust is produced when the pressure of the burnt propellant at the exit exceeds the outside pressure.

If you need to include this extra thrust it is (exit area) x (exit pressure - outside pressure). In the vacuum of space that outside pressure is, of course zero!

But I omitted this because of your aversion to equations.

Of course it doesn't explain anything to you and your like minded pals. I wouldn't expect it to, when your stance is entirely on the space rocket nonsense and how it supposedly works.

Your game was to deflect the conversation away from you failng to answer your own theory.

Several people told you how already:

Fule is burnt in the chamber, creating pressure and exhaust.
Rocket is pushing the exhaust out using pressure.
The exhaust has mass.
You can't push any mass without force.
And since every force has reaction, the reaction to this pushing force is the force that pushes back on the rocket.

You can use any other name while the "exhaust" is not yet outside.
For example, you can name it "exhaust-to-be".
But semantics won't change the operating principle.
Burning fuel is not exhaust.
Burned fuel is exhaust.

Two entirely different things.
Burning fuel creates the exhaust which is directed by the nozzle to the right (action force) : the reaction force is to the left ( moving the rocket ) as the exhaust leaves the nozzle.
If the burn from the nozzle is thrusting, it is not exhaust.
A car burning fuel inside a piston is using that burn to push the piston.
The exhaust pipe is the waste gases from that burn.
This thrusting is the ( action force ) to the right, the ( reaction force ) is to the left against the nozzle moving the rocket to the left. Leaving the exhaust trailing behind.
Internal  combustion is not relevant.

Clearly you are making things up on the fly when stumped and not paying attention to your own words regarding a 'delve'. Try and keep up.

In your analogy the space underneath the passenger car is a closed containment inside the elevator shaft. You claim that the thrust creates a 'delve' (e.g. a shaft) beneath the rocket that contains the thrust and then propels the rocket upward. However, here's where you really need to pay attention, the atmosphere on all sides of the 'delve' is weaker than the thrust. And there is nothing to contain this 'delve' to make it stronger and more resistant than the thrust from the rocket.

Do you not understand your own 'delve' bit?

Again, please explain what forces create this stronger than thrust atmospheric containment, how, and why. You have failed to do so thus far.
Of course the atmosphere is weaker but the thrust is a direct hit into it and super compresses that atmosphere by the super expansion created by that burn.
It creates a containment because the atmosphere crushes back against that direct hit.
Underneath that direct hit is the delve into the atmosphere and that delve has to lose atmosphere. Where does it go?

Think of the water analogy in the bath to understand what I'm saying.

You people need to pay attention and use your own brains.
Just put your fictional space rocket books down for a minute and pay attention.

This has nothing to do with books of knowledge and you are not paying attention and simply not using your brain. Apply some logic, it will take you a long way.

First, to super compress the atmosphere it would need to be contained. It it is not. There is no mechanism for the atmosphere to 'crush back'. How would it know to do that? What is the atmosphere pushing against to 'crush back'?

Second, the atmosphere gets thinner (weaker) as the rocket ascends. How does an even weaker atmosphere at higher elevations provide the same super compressed 'crush' as with lower elevations?

Third, you ask where does the atmosphere go below the rocket. Equally, where does the atmosphere go above the rocket?

Lastly, your water analogy has to do with buoyancy in a tub, not a rocket in the atmosphere. So it it is incorrect, illogical, and wildly irrelevant.

How do stacked sponges explain the opposite of lift off?

For example:  A rocket that is fired straight down toward earth from a high altitude.  What is causing the rocket to accelerate beyond terminal velocity compared to the same just free-falling?  How does this stacking work then?

Additionally, why wouldn't the stacked sponges that are underneath the rocket compress to the point where they would resist the rocket?  When a rocket lifts off there is little atmospheric stack underneath it, yet it resists the rocket allowing it to gain altitude..  A much large stack should easily resist the rocket that comes from above.

if it was just exhaust shooting out the back that moves a rocket, then you would not need the bell nozzle. The nozzle collects the exhaust force to "stack" it under the rocket. You wouldn't need a nozzle if it was just exhaust shooting out the bottom of the rocket to produce lift.

Yes, you certainly do need the bell nozzle. It is not just the mass of burnt propellant but it's velocity is just as important.

The bell nozzle, as has been explained numerous times, converts the high-pressure gas moving at the speed of sound in the throat into a much higher velocity but lower pressure gas at the exit.

The major part of a rocket's thrust is simply (mass flow rate) x (exit velocity).

No, because there is no way for it to transfer it back.
Can't you see from this the gas is already pushing the rocket upwards.

In fact, if the nozzle is shaped perfectly, the pressure at the end of the nozzle will be the same as the atmosphere.

If the were a vacuum around the bell the exhaust pressure would just dissipate instantly.
How?
How do you plan on having the gas magically accelerate to faster than the speed of light instantly?

Gas can only dissipate at a finite speed, even in a vacuum, so even in a vacuum, you still have that exhaust pressure pushing on the rocket.

Why do you even need the nozzle if the power of the exhaust is what is moving the rocket?
That is akin to asking why a gun has a barrel. It has one to harness the pressurised gas.
To harness the power of the rocket.
If you just had the gas behind the rocket and expand, only a small portion would push the rocket.
Likewise, if you just had highly compressed gas pushed out the back of the rocket, then only a small portion of that pressure is going towards pushing the rocket.
The point of the bell is to expand the gas and harness that pressure, so the rocket gets the most force out of it.

The easier way to understand it is based upon momentum and Bernoulli's principle.
Momentum must be conserved.
Thus the faster the gas is expelled, the more force must act on the rocket.
By expanding the gas, you lower the pressure and increase the velocity, and thus increase the force on the rocket.

It changes it from high pressure gas leaking out of the rocket to a low pressure gas shooting out at a very high velocity.

What is clear by watching rockets is that it clearly has nothing at all to do with collecting the atmosphere as the exhaust very quickly leaves the rocket.

Now as I said before, perhaps you can address the problem that has plagued jamas, Tom and Skepti?
You have a tube of compressed air in a vacuum with one end open (i.e. a rocket with a cold gas thruster). What happens?

Rational thought dictates the following:
1 - The gas leaves the rocket.
2 - This means it needs to accelerate.
3 - This means it must have a force act on it.
4 - This means it must have a reactionary force with it acting on another object.
5 - The only other object is the rocket.
6 - This means the gas must apply a force to the rocket.
7 - This means the rocket must work in a vacuum.

It doesn't "build up pressure". In an optimally designed rocket engine the exit pressure is almost equal to the outside pressure though this "optimally designed rocket engine" is impractical in a vacuum.

Compressed air cannot magically compress the atmosphere to a pressure greater than it. The best you can do is go to a midway point.

It only has to compress the atmosphere enough to create a barrier in the stack. A delve directly in the path of it and that compression cannot be compressed any more than what the object compressing it, offers, as you mention.

But that's just the point. It doesn't need to.
The energy is stored in the actual object releasing the pressure.
The atmosphere merely acts as the resistance to compression, to then, as you mention again, to be equally compressed. It's a stacked compression.

I keep saying time and time and time again for people to pay attention but too many are hell bent on merely creating their own resistance to understanding it from my side because of fear it destroys their side. You included.

If the burn from the nozzle is thrusting, it is not exhaust.
A car burning fuel inside a piston is using that burn to push the piston.
The exhaust pipe is the waste gases from that burn.
Burnt propellant/exhaust are just words but if that's the way you want it.

In a rocket engine, and it's just as much an engine as a car engine,
  • the fuel and oxidizer is burnt in the combustion chamber,

  • the nozzle (throat and bell) convert that very high pressure (70 to 300 Bar) burnt propellant into low pressure very high velocity gas and thrust

  • and the exit from the nozzle is the exhaust.
The thrust is the force necessary to accelerate that burnt propellant from it's very high pressure, Mach 1 velocity state to the [low pressure, hypersonic velocity state[/i] at the exit.

Care to actually bother reading what has been said and responding to that?
It is quite clear the atmosphere magically stacking has nothing to do with it.

Why should you need a nozzle to magically capture the atmosphere in a way which is never observed?
If it is just about pushing into the atmosphere and having it push back, then it shouldn't matter how you do it.
The nozzle only makes sense with conventional physics.

It only has to compress the atmosphere enough to create a barrier in the stack.
And as clearly observed from how the exhaust behaves, it never does that.

I keep saying time and time and time again for people to pay attention
All the while you keep your eyes closed and avoid as much of reality as possible.

Just because we don't accept your BS doesn't mean we aren't paying attention.

Let me try and help you out.
Then do so, rather than appeal to more pathetic distractions.
If you want to help it is quite easy. Actually provide the diagram you said you would.
Show us a diagram which actually has an arrow of force acting on the rocket to move it upwards.
Or you can actually explain what is wrong with the explanations already provided, rather than just dismissing it as hogwash.

Or you could deal with the issue that was raised before you even joined this thread and explain what happens in a vacuum. Tell us how the gas manages to leave the tube, without moving the tube or allowing it to move.

Picture a massive water tank.
Put a nozzle underneath that water tank and open it up.
Tell me where the forces are acting in that flow of water in terms up pushing the water tank up.

See, this is unhelpful. Rather than deal with the issues you just appeal to a completely different situation.
The water tank isn't pressurised. It is just gravity pulling it out. The equal and opposite reaction is on Earth, and the water tank doesn't go flying up.

So how do you expect your refuted rocket idea to work, when you have no force acting on the rocket?

If it did that it would cancel everything out.
Come on for crying out loud, surely you can see this.
WHY?
Don't just baselessly assert garbage and claim that "surely you can see this".
There is absolutely no basis for your claim.

Just look at the rocket. What force is acting on it?
It has a net force from the gas pushing it upwards.

The only way it could possibly work is if it has an opposing resistance to the mass expansion of that burning fuel.
It does....it's called
inertia, because the gas requires a force to move it, and that creates the reactionary force on the rocket.

Again, don't just dismiss things which show you are wrong as nonsense, actually explain what is wrong with it.

First, to super compress the atmosphere it would need to be contained. It it is not. There is no mechanism for the atmosphere to 'crush back'. How would it know to do that? What is the atmosphere pushing against to 'crush back'?
Because you will not accept it can. You refuse to even dare to understand it.
You think you need a container to contain. You don't if you super compress something DIRECTLY.
You've also got to remember that the containment in this scenario is not permanent. It's ongoing, meaning it's catch, compress and release, every second or nano second or whatever time needs to ber placed on the gas on gas fight.
You just refuse to understand it from my side.

Quote from: Stash
Second, the atmosphere gets thinner (weaker) as the rocket ascends. How does an even weaker atmosphere at higher elevations provide the same super compressed 'crush' as with lower elevations?
Loss of mass with the same thrust, meaning the rocket can navigate ever decreasing atmospheric pressure. It's a marriage made in the skies.


Quote from: Stash
Third, you ask where does the atmosphere go below the rocket. Equally, where does the atmosphere go above the rocket?
If you paid attention to everything I said previous, over many pages and many pages in other topics, you'd have a better understanding but you choose to rebel it rather than learn it.

The atmosphere above the rocket is the pressure to push through. It's the resistance to the energy applied below. It's always there, just every decreasing in pressure.

Quote from: Stash
Lastly, your water analogy has to do with buoyancy in a tub, not a rocket in the atmosphere. So it it is incorrect, illogical, and wildly irrelevant.
It's all buoyancy if you want to argue it that way.

Buoyancy in very simple words is the below mass resistance to the above mass pushed against it.

Now that is against anything, including atmosphere.
The only difference is in what is applied directly to whatever below is below in terms of what is pushed aside by pushing INTO, directly.

I agree, the nozzle is important for atmospheric travel. It helps produce the stacking effect that skeppy talks about. In a vacuum it wouldn't help.

Then you have to ask yourself, does the stack extend all the way to the ground no matter the altitude of the rocket? If not, what is supporting the stack? What is the containment that is allowing a stack to form and build a greater resistance to the thrust from the rocket?
The atmosphere is stacked at every level.
Every millimetre all the way up.

The more energy you push into it the more you compress it to create a crush back to equal that thrust.
From this point the thrust cannot compress trhe atmosphere any more so it returns the pressure back to the rocket but each time it does, the rocket sits atop of it and simply rides on it.

There is absolutely nothing inside that rocket that pushes that rocket up..................... Nothing.

Put some thought into it if you want to find the truth.

Hops is making the drag effects to overcomplicate the diagram and introduce more elements in an attempt to distract that sceptis diagram fails to show what specifically is touching the rocket to lift it.
if it was just exhaust shooting out the back that moves a rocket, then you would not need the bell nozzle.
Yes, you certainly do need the bell nozzle. It is not just the mass of burnt propellant but it's velocity is just as important.

The bell nozzle, as has been explained numerous times, converts the high-pressure gas moving at the speed of sound in the throat into a much higher velocity but lower pressure gas at the exit.

The major part of a rocket's thrust is simply (mass flow rate) x (exit velocity).

the nozzle can also be used for steering if equipped with a gimbal.

By the way, air to air missiles have a higher speed and longer range when shot at high altitudes than at sea level. Yet another thing that doesn't fit with skeppy's version.
Throwing a ball has a longer range at higher altitudes than throwing it more horizontal, so what's your issue with my set up?

Quit with the insults. We don't accept it because it is pure nonsense and you just repeatedly assert the same refuted nonsense and insult us for not accepting it.

Again, if what you were saying was true, the exhaust would not go significantly below the rocket. It would remain trapped with the rocket and/or be blown in front of the rocket.

If what you are saying was true, motion would be basically impossible because as you try to move you would compress the atmosphere and it would push you back.

This is why we don't accept it. Because it does not match reality and makes no sense at all, and because you repeatedly ignore these massive problems.

Perhaps you should start trying to understand things from reality's side?

The atmosphere above the rocket is the pressure to push through. It's the resistance to the energy applied below. It's always there, just every decreasing in pressure.
Which would then prevent the rocket going upwards.
Why doesn't the rocket flying into that air above it cause the air above it to be super compressed and then push the rocket back down?

Buoyancy in very simple words is the below mass resistance to the above mass pushed against it.
No, buoyancy, in very simple terms, is any fluid applying an upwards force on any object inside it.
If it was just buoyancy causing a rocket to go up, they wouldn't need any fuel. It would be like a helium balloon.

From this point the thrust cannot compress trhe atmosphere any more so it returns the pressure back to the rocket but each time it does
HOW?
Draw a diagram, clearly showing the arrow of force acting on the rocket to push it up.

Put some thought into it if you want to find the truth.
That's your problem, we have put thought into it and found the truth, and it isn't your nonsense.
Thinking results in people finding the truth, not your nonsense.

Why not just say what you really think? Why not just honestly tell not to bother even trying to think at all and to instead just blindly accept your nonsense unquestioningly?

Again, you have still failed to address the simple issue which demands that rockets must work in a vacuum.
Like I said before, until you do, you have nothing.

What happens to the gas in the tube in the vacuum? How does it leave without pushing the tube and allowing rockets to work in a vacuum?
Put some thought into it if you want to find the truth.

Or just keep refusing to think and keep having your lies exposed.

Rocket pushes gas in one direction, gas pushes rocket back in opposite direction would "cancel everything out"? :)

Your attempts to fit your "atmospheric resistance" into the whole picture are obviously flawed.
Expelled gas is not rigid enough to serve as a paddle.

Now when we cleared that out, tell us what are you trying to claim:

1. Gas that rocket expells has no mass?
2. Or the expelled mass of the gas exits on its own, without the force to push it out?
3. Or the action force that pushes on the mass of the expelled gas does not have the reaction force that pushes back on the rocket?

Two non-anchored things with mass
that push on each other
will always both move
in the opposite directions from each other.


All that atmosphere can do to a rocket is to slow it down.

All this time and you still don't grasp ,it. Surely you must be playing games.
The exhaust is the real spent fuel.
The atmosphere saw to that by compressing back onto the actual BURN which the rocket sits upon and is moved at each millisecond of BURN, leaving behind the real exhaust...the cloud. Ther atmosphere that has no effect on the rocket, except to be a channel left behind the force, known as spent gases/fuel/energy.

It's a different "kettle of fish"!
An "air to air missile" is not thrown but is propelled by a rocket engine that generates more thrust in the lower pressure air at higher altitudes.
Of course it generates more thrust. It generates more thrust against lesser pressure because it has less pressure to resist that thrust.
However the thrust does not propel it any faster, it would be much less energy for power...unless the air to air missile was fired from above to below.

So basically, if your rocket has maximum thrust at lift off it will never attain any more energy for acceleration, because every vertical advancement means  less atmosphere than before, meaning the rocket produces higher thrust for no extra return.
The higher thrust simply means the rocket can hold it's own mass against the ever decreasing atmosphere due to fuel mass depletion and ever lessening resistance to the expelled burning fuel, meaning higher thrust, as I said.


Pretty simple when you understand the basics without being coaxed into nonsense territory of arse kicking rockets supposedly not needing atmosphere.
It's a great con but  a con, nonetheless.

If the burn from the nozzle is thrusting, it is not exhaust.
A car burning fuel inside a piston is using that burn to push the piston.
The exhaust pipe is the waste gases from that burn.
Burnt propellant/exhaust are just words but if that's the way you want it.

In a rocket engine, and it's just as much an engine as a car engine,
  • the fuel and oxidizer is burnt in the combustion chamber,

  • the nozzle (throat and bell) convert that very high pressure (70 to 300 Bar) burnt propellant into low pressure very high velocity gas and thrust

  • and the exit from the nozzle is the exhaust.
The thrust is the force necessary to accelerate that burnt propellant from it's very high pressure, Mach 1 velocity state to the [low pressure, hypersonic velocity state[/i] at the exit.

What's so hard about that?
There's nothing hard about it as long as the truth is told and what you're saying is not the whole truth.
No, I'm telling the the "whole truth" as far as I know it for the part of the thrust produced by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.
There is an extra component when the rocket is in low the pressure environment of space.

That extra thrust is produced when the pressure of the burnt propellant at the exit exceeds the outside pressure.

If you need to include this extra thrust it is (exit area) x (exit pressure - outside pressure). In the vacuum of space that outside pressure is, of course zero!

But I omitted this because of your aversion to equations.

Quote from: sceptimatic
You neglect one very important factor. Can you guess what it is?

Let me try and help you out.

Picture a massive water tank.
Put a nozzle underneath that water tank and open it up.

Tell me where the forces are acting in that flow of water in terms up pushing the water tank up.
You can clearly see the water being expelled from the tank to the ground but where is the opposite push, vertically up into the tank?

If there is none then how in  the hell do you expect your rocket to produce the same opposing force?

You fail to realize the reason why i used a WATER rocket as my example.

Yep, as long as the rocket uses atmosphere to be pushed, it has to come up against a resistance of that same atmosphere to slow it down and it's up to the consistent energy being applied to push into the opposing atmosphere that keeps the rocket at a consistent speed.

Please pay attention! I have explained that numerous times.

When the fuel and oxidiser (ie the propellant) are burnt in the combustion chamber they generate gas at a very high pressure but still comparatively low velocity.

That burnt propellant leaves the combustion chambers through the narrower throat and enters the bell of the nozzle still at a very high pressure.

But the exit pressure at the outlet of the bell is at a low pressure as little above the outside pressure as possible.
This pressure differential between the high pressure at the inlet end of the bell and the low pressure at the exit it the cause of the gases acceleration.

And note that at 3:27 into the video the Falcon 9 is travelling at 6366 km/hr at 50 km altitude and it still accelerating though the main engines will shortly cut-off fro stage separation.
At 50 km altitude, the air pressure is only about 0.04 psi compared to 14.7 at sea-level.
And  at 4:26 into the video the Falcon 9 2nd stage is travelling at 8456 km/hr at 100 km altitude and it still accelerating.
Here the air pressure is only about 0.000004 psi and so close to a vacuum that it would make no difference to a rocket.

When the fuel and oxidiser (ie the propellant) are burnt in the combustion chamber they generate gas at a very high pressure but still comparatively low velocity.
The combustion chamber being where we are told it is in these rockets makes zero sense, especially with the diagram of pumps to aid the supposed fuel transfer.
Compressed gas has zero requirement for a pump and to even contemplate putting two fuels together under the pressures we're told and then igniting them in such a small space would blow up the rocket.
No argument needed. It simply would.

The combustion chamber is a fiction.
In fact, rocket engines are a fiction for a vertical wingless rocket.

Quote from: rabinoz

Nothing is leaving anywhere through a narrower throat under a burn to transfer that burn into rocket power.

This pressure differential between the high pressure at the inlet end of the bell and the low pressure at the exit it the cause of the gases acceleration.
Let me explain your rocket very simply. I mean a real rocket.

You have your propellent/fuel.
You release the fuel under pressure which is higher than external atmosphere but not high enough to do much in terms of lift for a rocket of decent mass.

However, as the fuel reaches the neck of the nozzle it's ignited and the burn causes massive expansion of that fuel and gas into the wider nozzle against the lower atmosphere, which is immediately expanded into by the direct thrust of those fuel and gases/burn.
This super compresses that atmosphere by pushing it out of the way and compressing it away from the burn but the atmosphere has to go somewhere once compressed to the max the fuel burn can do and it does. It decompresses to create a crash back and this happens every nano second as long as the thrusting burn is doing its job cosistently.

The rocket merely sits atop this.

There's no internal combustion chambers and no silly engines. They are counter productive to the vertical operation of the rocket.
You're being duped.

We do and we have found the truth on that matter.
But you cannot accept that rockets can work in space because it doesn't fit with your preconceived narrative.
It doesn't fit my narrative because they don't work in the space you're told of.
No, "It doesn't fit your narrative because" you claim that "they don't work in the space " we accept is there.

And you are quite wrong because real rockets work extremely well in real space!

SpaceX launches Starlink 2, third batch of 60 Starlink satellites (1/6/2020)


And note that at 3:27 into the video the Falcon 9 is travelling at 6366 km/hr at 50 km altitude and it still accelerating though the main engines will shortly cut-off fro stage separation.
At 50 km altitude, the air pressure is only about 0.04 psi compared to 14.7 at sea-level.
And  at 4:26 into the video the Falcon 9 2nd stage is travelling at 8456 km/hr at 100 km altitude and it still accelerating.
Here the air pressure is only about 0.000004 psi and so close to a vacuum that it would make no difference to a rocket.
It would make no difference to the rocket because the rocket is not working in near zero atmosphere. It's fiction. It cannot work, no matter how you dress it up.

You can't even give me a simple explanation as to why they work in your space, in your mind.

Hops is making the drag effects to overcomplicate the diagram and introduce more elements in an attempt to distract that sceptis diagram fails to show what specifically is touching the rocket to lift it.
if it was just exhaust shooting out the back that moves a rocket, then you would not need the bell nozzle.
Yes, you certainly do need the bell nozzle. It is not just the mass of burnt propellant but it's velocity is just as important.

The bell nozzle, as has been explained numerous times, converts the high-pressure gas moving at the speed of sound in the throat into a much higher velocity but lower pressure gas at the exit.

The major part of a rocket's thrust is simply (mass flow rate) x (exit velocity).

the nozzle can also be used for steering if equipped with a gimbal.

By the way, air to air missiles have a higher speed and longer range when shot at high altitudes than at sea level. Yet another thing that doesn't fit with skeppy's version.
Throwing a ball has a longer range at higher altitudes than throwing it more horizontal, so what's your issue with my set up?
Not related to my statement. I was not talking to you. The point is that they don't lose power at all when the air gets thinner.
Correct, they maintain a consistent speed due to losing mass and gaining more thrust against ever lessenging atmospheric resistance.
This is an absolute requirement for the rocket to keep a stable speed but it does not last for long before the fuel is spent enough to lose its ability to carry on that thrust build and so your rocket becomes a dead stick on the vertical or an arcing ocean missile.

I agree, the nozzle is important for atmospheric travel. It helps produce the stacking effect that skeppy talks about. In a vacuum it wouldn't help.

Then you have to ask yourself, does the stack extend all the way to the ground no matter the altitude of the rocket? If not, what is supporting the stack? What is the containment that is allowing a stack to form and build a greater resistance to the thrust from the rocket?
The atmosphere is stacked at every level.
Every millimetre all the way up.

The more energy you push into it the more you compress it to create a crush back to equal that thrust.
From this point the thrust cannot compress trhe atmosphere any more so it returns the pressure back to the rocket but each time it does, the rocket sits atop of it and simply rides on it.

There is absolutely nothing inside that rocket that pushes that rocket up..................... Nothing.

Put some thought into it if you want to find the truth.

This directly contradicts your reply before it:

" ever decreasing atmospheric pressure."

Several people told you how already:

Fule is burnt in the chamber, creating pressure and exhaust.
Rocket is pushing the exhaust out using pressure.
The exhaust has mass.
You can't push any mass without force.
And since every force has reaction, the reaction to this pushing force is the force that pushes back on the rocket.

You can use any other name while the "exhaust" is not yet outside.
For example, you can name it "exhaust-to-be".
But semantics won't change the operating principle.
Burning fuel is not exhaust.
Burned fuel is exhaust.

Two entirely different things.
Burning fuel creates the exhaust which is directed by the nozzle to the right (action force) : the reaction force is to the left ( moving the rocket ) as the exhaust leaves the nozzle.
If the burn from the nozzle is thrusting, it is not exhaust.
A car burning fuel inside a piston is using that burn to push the piston.
The exhaust pipe is the waste gases from that burn.
This thrusting is the ( action force ) to the right, the ( reaction force ) is to the left against the nozzle moving the rocket to the left. Leaving the exhaust trailing behind.
Internal  combustion is not relevant.
Did you miss this?

You don't tell me how it works you just say that it does.
No, we have told you repeatedly and you just repeatedly ignore it and dismiss it as hogwash or nonsense.
Meanwhile, you actually haven't explained anything.

Why don't you tell us how the gas accelerates.
What is the gas pushing on to accelerate? Or is the gas magic which can just accelerate all by itself?

Time for me to grill you and see what you know from your own head.
Not until you have provided what you said you would.
Provide us a diagram showing how a rocket works, with a force acting on the rocket.
Tell us how the gas will accelerate, especially in my example where you have pressurised gas in a tube in a vacuum with one end of the tube open.

According to you, any motion (or change in motion) in such an environment is impossible as there is nothing to push off and no atmosphere. Yet you claim the gas will leave. HOW? How does the gas leave the tube? How does it accelerate? What is it pushing off?

It doesn't fit my narrative because they don't work in the space you're told of.
You mean because in your narrative they don't work in space.
i.e. it doesn't fit your narrative because it doesn't fit your narrative.

All this time and you still don't grasp ,it. Surely you must be playing games.
No, all this time and I still grasp it. I still understand you are spouting whatever pathetic BS you can to avoid admitting reality.

I don't care what semantics you want to play.
The gas, when it leaves the rocket, goes massively below the rocket, often many times the size of the rocket.

It is clearly not compressing the atmosphere and getting pushed back up.
Instead, it is going straight through.

If the nonsense you were spouting was true the gas would not fly down like that. Instead it would stay with the rocket, either being pushed out to the side or upwards in front of the rocket. But that would then cause more compression and force and so on. In fact, motion would be impossible.

Of course it generates more thrust. It generates more thrust against lesser pressure because it has less pressure to resist that thrust.
Which when extrapolated means the atmosphere is doing nothing except hindering it so in a vacuum it would generate more thrust and thus rockets would work in a vacuum.

However the thrust does not propel it any faster
It will accelerate it more. If it didn't, it wouldn't be greater thrust.

The higher thrust simply means the rocket can hold it's own mass
No, higher thrust means more force acting on the rocket, meaning more acceleration (and even more when you note that the mass has decreased).

Pretty simple when you understand the basics without being coaxed into nonsense territory
Yes, rockets are pretty simple when you actually understand the basics without any of your foolish nonsense.
Even a basic understanding based upon conservation of momentum is enough to understand the FACT that rockets work in a vacuum.

But rather than even attempt to understand these basics you just reject it all and cling to nonsense that you have coaxed yourself into believing.

The force to push it out is entirely by the decompression of the gas against itself, not against the rocket.
This makes no sense at all.
You objected to the rocket pushing itself but now you are asserting the gas is pushing itself.
This is pure nonsense and an extremely dishonest double standard.

The only time gas "pushes itself" is when the gas can go in multiple directions and the different parts of the gas push each other, effectively splitting it in 2.

This is why you have been repeatedly asked to draw a simple diagram and to actually explain what the gas is pushing against; because you are appealing to pure nonsense and directly contradicting yourself.

Literally the only thing available for the gas to push on to leave the rocket, is the rocket.

So like you have been repeatedly asked, draw a diagram, showing the forces, making sure you show the action-reaction pair.
Noting that this is the gas inside the rocket, being accelerated out of the rocket.

The reaction is the atmosphere resisting by compression.
No, that is an entirely separate force.

The action is the force accelerating the gas out of the rocket, acting downwards. The reaction needs to be a force on something else pushing it upwards.
Again, the only thing this can act on is the rocket.

As long as there's a medium, any non-anchored opposites will push against each other and move.
Why is a medium needed?
Just what do you think would happen if there is no medium and these 2 non-anchored objects push against each other? Do they just sit there, doing nothing?

It's not lifting it up from inside of it, is it?
Have you even bothered looking at the diagrams?
The is exactly what is happening.
The air directly below the hovercraft, inside the region contained by the skirt, being at a higher pressure than the air above the hovercraft, pushes the hovercraft upwards.
This also acts as a negative feedback loop maintaining the hovercraft at a fairly consistent altitude above the ground.

That is quite an important part, it shows arrows of force acting on the hovercraft to keep it up. That is what you are completely missing with your diagram for rockets. You are yet to show any force acting on the rocket to move it.

Compressed gas has zero requirement for a pump
There is a requirement, because unlike in your fantasy where compressed gases just move by magic instantly, back in reality the flow rate is based upon the pressure differential and a pump will allow you to pump the gas much faster. A pump also allows you to pump it into a higher pressure region, such as the combustion chamber.

to even contemplate putting two fuels together under the pressures we're told and then igniting them in such a small space would blow up the rocket.
No argument needed. It simply would.
No, an argument is most certainly needed. Otherwise you have nothing more than a pathetic baseless assertion.
There is absolutely no reason to conclude that it would blow up the rocket.
What you are suggesting is akin to suggesting a standard combustion engine in a car is impossible as when the fuel-air mixture is ignited it would blow up the engine.

Let me explain your rocket very simply. I mean a real rocket.
Again, try to actually explain it. You are yet to even attempt it.
Explain how the gas accelerates out of the rocket. What force is acting on it? What is the reaction to this force?
Then explain what is forcing the rocket forwards or upwards?
Draw a simple diagram with these arrows of force.

Oh wait, you refuse to because that shows you are spouting pure garbage and that real physics is correct.

If it has wings the engines are genuine and generally work as told.
The wings are irrelevant and have no bearing on how the rocket works.
If you are happy accepting real rocket engines when there are wings, what do you think would happen if the wings are removed?
That suddenly the engine, which was working perfectly fine until the wings were removed, suddenly blows up for no reason at all, just because you say it will?
That suddenly, the laws of physics drastically change to make the rocket function in a completely different way?

It's only essential to have a background knowledge of something that is entirely physically real.
You mean like space rockets?
Yes, it is very important to have background knowledge of them, especially when you repeatedly they are fiction, yet can mount no rational argument against them.

In fact, if you wish to assert anything is fictional, you will need a decent background knowledge on it, or else you have no basis to assert it is fictional.

You can't even give me a simple explanation as to why they work in your space, in your mind.
Stop lying. We have repeatedly given you explanations.
Explanations which actually provide an origin for the force on the rocket.
Explanations which you are completely unable to refute in any way.

Meanwhile, you provide us with nothing.
You are yet to explain how the gas accelerates out of the rocket.
You are yet to provide any diagram which shows a force on the rocket.
You have literally nothing except your pathetic, baseless dismissals of reality and pathetic, baseless assertions of pure nonsense.

My drawing's fine. Work out why it's fine.
It works fine because you are just a pathetic troll with no interest in the truth at all and weren't trying to make a diagram to describe reality?

Because if you were going for a diagram to describe reality it completely fails as you have no force acting on the rocket or balloon to move them to the left, and you have completely unbalanced forces, where you have an action without a reaction.

The initial diagram, which actually had them was fine, but you had to reject it because it meant rockets work in space.

Your drawing is rubbish with meaningless arrows going all over the place. There is no barrier where exhaust gases hit the atmosphere.

Look at the exhaust stream of a real rocket.
Note that at sea-level it does not expand into the atmosphere because the pressure in that exhaust stream in very little if any above atmospheric pressure.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/r29xdblpx6bd5si/Rocket%20Exhaust%20-%20Falcon%209%20heavy%20low%20altitude.jpg?dl=1)
Note how narrow the exhaust trail is, hardly wider than the rocket's width.

Then, at high altitude and very low air-pressure the exhaust stream can spread out:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/o85a851ewg6h9ou/Rocket%20Exhaust%20-%20Falcon%209%20heavy%20very%20low%20air%20pressure.jpg?dl=1)
See how wide the exhaust trail has expanded in the much lower pressure air.

But it neither case is there the slightest sign of the exhaust gas hitting any barrier.

2. Or the expelled mass of the gas exits on its own, without the force to push it out?
The force to push it out is entirely by the decompression of the gas against itself, not against the rocket.

Are you trying to say that the expanding gas will decompress in one direction only?
It will press backwards, and for some reason refuse to press forward? :)
What would stop it?

Quote from: Macarios
3. Or the action force that pushes on the mass of the expelled gas does not have the reaction force that pushes back on the rocket?
The action force is the gas. The rocket is just the passenger riding on it.
The reaction is the atmosphere resisting by compression.

Gas exits from the rocket pressed by gass itself and not the rocket?
And when the atmosphere slows it down the rocket suddenly receives some force?
So, 70 bar of the engine pressure will not move the rocket, but 1 bar of the atmosphere will?
Are you deliberately avoiding the fact that the same atmosphere presses the nose of the rocket, not only the tail?
It presses with 1 bar on both ends.

Quote from: Macarios
Two non-anchored things with mass
that push on each other
will always both move
in the opposite directions from each other.

As long as there's a medium, any non-anchored opposites will push against each other and move.

So, two springs in vacuum will not move away from each other because there is no medium?
Don't be silly. Not even mid school students would believe you that. :)

Quote from: Macarios
All that atmosphere can do to a rocket is to slow it down.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yep, as long as the rocket uses atmosphere to be pushed, it has to come up against a resistance of that same atmosphere to slow it down and it's up to the consistent energy being applied to push into the opposing atmosphere that keeps the rocket at a consistent speed.

Let me repeat: the same atmosphere presses the rocket from both ends, not only from the tail.
(It also equally presses from all sides.)
As much as it gets compressed by the exhaust moving backward,
that much gets compressed by the rocket itself moving forward.
This is where happens the cancelation you were talking about before.

The mentioned "positive effect of the air drag" may occur on airplane wings,
as the force that keeps airplane in air. Also on flaps when slowing down is desired effect.

But you already know that airplanes don't use rocket engines.
They use either propellers, or jet engines.
And, unlike rockets, they do lean on air.

There is no issue with hovercrafts.
Tge issue is your diagram you edited with force arrows pushing on a green bar doesnt show force arrows hitting the bottom of the balloon to lift it up.

Say it out loud:
Arrows
Directly
Touching
The balloon.

Fix your drawing

(https://i.postimg.cc/tTW8dtv5/rocket-propulsion-reg-0.jpg) (https://postimages.org/)
My drawing's fine. Work out why it's fine.

See them side by side.
Seriously.
Note the difference?
You missing force linss ON the rocket.
Maybe we can try another approach.
Why do you feel arrows dont need to be pudhing on thebrocket - when you claim the rocket sits on the barrier.
If the barriee ia pushing the rocket, dosa it not mean there ahould be a force line?

Of course it generates more thrust. It generates more thrust against lesser pressure because it has less pressure to resist that thrust.
Which when extrapolated means the atmosphere is doing nothing except hindering it so in a vacuum it would generate more thrust and thus rockets would work in a vacuum.
No....no...no....no.
The atmosphere is far from a hindrance and you should know fine well this is the real case.
The atmosphere enables EVERYTHING  to work and provides the equal and opposite reaction to the action.
As simple as that.
Anything different to this is simply fictional......including your space rockets.

This more thrust in a vacuum stuff is really more thrust in lower pressure, which is true because there is less atmospheric pressure resistance to the exiting decompression of gas from the rocket, meaning the gas can decompress much easier, allowing much more immediate expansion into a wider area due to less atmospheric crush back.


It's needed to balance out the force aided by the ever decreasing mass of the actual rocket due to fuel mass loss.
It works like a treat and keeps a nice fine line of action and reaction in many different stages.

Quote from: JackBlack

However the thrust does not propel it any faster
It will accelerate it more. If it didn't, it wouldn't be greater thrust.
The greater thrust is merely what the rocket can give out against what opposes it.
A rocket lifting off at full thrust is doing so at sea level.
That rocket cannot gain any further vertical acceleration after this, it can only maintain it by being allowed to thrust more into a burn and that can only happen if the atmosphere reduces the external pressure, which it does, all the way up.

More thrust but no extra gain other than a stable in flight rocket, until the fuel on board is not enough to continue the fight.

Quote from: JackBlack

The higher thrust simply means the rocket can hold it's own mass
No, higher thrust means more force acting on the rocket, meaning more acceleration (and even more when you note that the mass has decreased).
There is no more force. It's all a case of equalling out based on stacking atmosphere the rocket is thrusting against, which is (like I said) ever lowering pressure resistance to the thrust, meaning more thrust is allowed by ever changing air pressures as a weaker resistance to the exiting gas burn.

Quote from: JackBlack

As long as there's a medium, any non-anchored opposites will push against each other and move.
Why is a medium needed?
Just what do you think would happen if there is no medium and these 2 non-anchored objects push against each other? Do they just sit there, doing nothing?
If they were pushed against each other then the gases inside would create their own medium between the objects and push them apart by means of stacking that gas.
To make this easier to understand, just imagine two plungers facing each other and allowing those two plungers to push each other apart by the gases stored inside of them.
All they would do is push each other to the extent of their lever and stop dead.

Anything in a so called vacuum would immediately go dormant upon release and act like a big pushed out ice pop from a tube, then stop.
It's all about putting your mind to work.

Quote from: JackBlack

It's not lifting it up from inside of it, is it?
Have you even bothered looking at the diagrams?
The is exactly what is happening.
The air directly below the hovercraft, inside the region contained by the skirt, being at a higher pressure than the air above the hovercraft, pushes the hovercraft upwards.
This also acts as a negative feedback loop maintaining the hovercraft at a fairly consistent altitude above the ground.

That is quite an important part, it shows arrows of force acting on the hovercraft to keep it up. That is what you are completely missing with your diagram for rockets. You are yet to show any force acting on the rocket to move it.
The skirt is the air trap. It stops the air from above pushing out the curtain to quickly giving the chance to pressurise and the hovercraft sits on that.

A rocket manages it due to massive depressurisation by burn, which super compresses the air and creates the delve in the stack required for compressed resistance to mass expansion, which the rocket sits atop of at each nano second of thrust.
Go and get a bicycle pump and seal off the end then stand it up like a rocket and push the plunger down.
Now leave loose.
What happens?

Exactly, the plunger springs up due to compressed air being allowed to decompress.

Now think about what's happening from rocket nozzle into atmosphere in the delve into stack scenario I've mentioned, time and time again.


Quote from: JackBlack

Compressed gas has zero requirement for a pump
There is a requirement, because unlike in your fantasy where compressed gases just move by magic instantly, back in reality the flow rate is based upon the pressure differential and a pump will allow you to pump the gas much faster. A pump also allows you to pump it into a higher pressure region, such as the combustion chamber.
The pump is pointless.
It's like saying you need a pump on a firework to make it go higher when you know the solid fuel burn does a perfect job of pushing against the atmosphere in a burn.

Adding engines to enable so called kerosene and hydrogen and oxygen to make a faster burn is clear and utter nonsense. It's fiction. It's a dupe of the minds of the public.



Quote from: JackBlack

to even contemplate putting two fuels together under the pressures we're told and then igniting them in such a small space would blow up the rocket.
No argument needed. It simply would.
No, an argument is most certainly needed. Otherwise you have nothing more than a pathetic baseless assertion.
There is absolutely no reason to conclude that it would blow up the rocket.
What you are suggesting is akin to suggesting a standard combustion engine in a car is impossible as when the fuel-air mixture is ignited it would blow up the engine.
There is every reason.
A car has a controlled air intake and fuel intake.
It's not based on allowing a fuel pump to super pump fuel and air into the piston chamber. The carb regulates it so you get just enough air and fuel to ignite and create a burn with each spark and in turn pushing down a piston to mechanically operate the gears and drive shafts.

The rocket has zero need to create this. It would be counter productive and massive added m,ass for zero return.
You cannot regulate hydrogen, oxygen and kerosene into a so called combustion chamber at the rates we are told and then expect to ignite it  for an internal push, for crying out loud.
It would blow the rocket to smithereens.

We are filled full of garbage and treated to diagrams as a pass off of so called legitimacy...which , when looked at, make zero sense.

Quote from: JackBlack

Let me explain your rocket very simply. I mean a real rocket.
Again, try to actually explain it. You are yet to even attempt it.
Explain how the gas accelerates out of the rocket. What force is acting on it? What is the reaction to this force?
Then explain what is forcing the rocket forwards or upwards?
Draw a simple diagram with these arrows of force.
Already done. Refusal to accept it is not my issue, it's your issue.



Quote from: JackBlack

In fact, if you wish to assert anything is fictional, you will need a decent background knowledge on it, or else you have no basis to assert it is fictional.
I may not be able to put it out as any official story of fiction but I can certainly believe it to be fiction from my own point of view....which is all I'm doing.
Nobody is telling you to accept it as that. I'm simply counteracting your stance on your belief of official stories told to you or what you read and accepted as fact, based on zero physical knowledge.

Quote from: JackBlack

You can't even give me a simple explanation as to why they work in your space, in your mind.
Stop lying. We have repeatedly given you explanations.
Explanations which actually provide an origin for the force on the rocket.
Explanations which you are completely unable to refute in any way.
I think I've refuted them quite easily but then I'm biased for myself, just as you are for yourself and the WE you keep mentioning.

Quote from: JackBlack

Meanwhile, you provide us with nothing.
You are yet to explain how the gas accelerates out of the rocket.
You are yet to provide any diagram which shows a force on the rocket.
You have literally nothing except your pathetic, baseless dismissals of reality and pathetic, baseless assertions of pure nonsense.
I explained it well enough for anyone who wished to try to understand it.
Does it require further explanation?
Yes, most likely but only for those who will take the time to actually try to genuinely understand it without using schooled so called science to create a shield at every available opportunity.
That would be counterintuitive..

Quote from: JackBlack

My drawing's fine. Work out why it's fine.
It works fine because you are just a pathetic troll with no interest in the truth at all and weren't trying to make a diagram to describe reality?
A pathetic troll. Hmmmmm.
You seem to be getting mad. Why?
You're losing the argument by doing this. You need to sit back and give yourself some breathing space.

Quote from: JackBlack

Because if you were going for a diagram to describe reality it completely fails as you have no force acting on the rocket or balloon to move them to the left, and you have completely unbalanced forces, where you have an action without a reaction.

The initial diagram, which actually had them was fine, but you had to reject it because it meant rockets work in space.
The diagram I gave is fine. It shows exactly what's happening in reality.
Your balloon diagram is fictional. It cannot work and any rational person should see that.

My drawing's fine. Work out why it's fine.
Your drawing is rubbish with meaningless arrows going all over the place. There is no barrier where exhaust gases hit the atmosphere.

Look at the exhaust stream of a real rocket.
Note that at sea-level it does not expand into the atmosphere because the pressure in that exhaust stream in very little if any above atmospheric pressure.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/r29xdblpx6bd5si/Rocket%20Exhaust%20-%20Falcon%209%20heavy%20low%20altitude.jpg?dl=1)
Note how narrow the exhaust trail is, hardly wider than the rocket's width.

Then, at high altitude and very low air-pressure the exhaust stream can spread out:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/o85a851ewg6h9ou/Rocket%20Exhaust%20-%20Falcon%209%20heavy%20very%20low%20air%20pressure.jpg?dl=1)
See how wide the exhaust trail has expanded in the much lower pressure air.

But it neither case is there the slightest sign of the exhaust gas hitting any barrier.

Fix your drawing!
Your rockets are fictional.
But even so...regardless of them being fictional...what you are arguing, I've just answered, above.

Quote from: Macarios
2. Or the expelled mass of the gas exits on its own, without the force to push it out?
The force to push it out is entirely by the decompression of the gas against itself, not against the rocket.

Are you trying to say that the expanding gas will decompress in one direction only?
It will press backwards, and for some reason refuse to press forward? :)
What would stop it?
Expanding gas will only expand if it hits a resistance it can push into, at first. Once that resistance builds up against that expanding gas, that gas starts to be compressed and the following expanding gas also becomes more compressed in a chain reaction, until a barrier is created to build that gas and leave anything on top of is as a passenger riding on that gas....including the rocket.


Quote from: Macarios
Quote from: Macarios
3. Or the action force that pushes on the mass of the expelled gas does not have the reaction force that pushes back on the rocket?
The action force is the gas. The rocket is just the passenger riding on it.
The reaction is the atmosphere resisting by compression.

Gas exits from the rocket pressed by gass itself and not the rocket?
And when the atmosphere slows it down the rocket suddenly receives some force?
So, 70 bar of the engine pressure will not move the rocket, but 1 bar of the atmosphere will?
Are you deliberately avoiding the fact that the same atmosphere presses the nose of the rocket, not only the tail?
It presses with 1 bar on both ends.

It's all about thrust and how much of it can create a massive compressive reaction to it.
If you don't apply enough thrust you do not compress the atmosphere enough to create the stacked compressive build up.
This is why you have to get a thrust to mass ratio to ensure your rocket rides atop the gas fight or ride the compressive kick back of atmosphere at each nano second of full on thrust to mass ideal.

Quote from: Macarios
Quote from: Macarios
Two non-anchored things with mass
that push on each other
will always both move
in the opposite directions from each other.

As long as there's a medium, any non-anchored opposites will push against each other and move.
So, two springs in vacuum will not move away from each other because there is no medium?
Don't be silly. Not even mid school students would believe you that. :)
Assuming you could do it in a vacuum then yes they would move away from each other but only by the amount of energy placed into them in the first place by uncoiling, but then they would stop dead in their uncoiled position and still attached, only moving by the length of their uncoiled state.

The rocket thrusts and compresses the air under it and around the area of thrust. The atmosphere compresses massively and crushed back like a big spring barrier.
Your rocket rides atop this gas fight.
The rocket stays stable because it;s pushed through the upper atmosphere and its pointed end creates that friction grip down the sides, ensuring the rocket is stable in flight.

Quote from: Macarios
The mentioned "positive effect of the air drag" may occur on airplane wings,

They use either propellers, or jet engines.
And, unlike rockets, they do lean on air.
A propeller or jet engine or rocket engine. They all perform the exact same function of burning fuel to gain lift/movement by using atmospheric pressure as their compressive ally to negotiate the very same atmosphere for movement within it.

Just like swimmers have to drag back the water behind them to create a higher pressure to push back against then, so does any other vehicle in atmosphere or water....etc.

There's no difference in terms of requirement, on ly in energy needed to aid in the function of moving mass in all directions.

That directly contradicts everything observed in reality and what you said.
If the atmosphere was not a hindrance then you would have more thrust with higher atmospheric pressure, the exact opposite of what you just said.

Stop just asserting nonsense and actually deal with what has been said.

The atmosphere enables EVERYTHING  to work and provides the equal and opposite reaction to the action.
Again, that makes no sense. You have the gas in the rocket, in a vacuum, how does it accelerate out? There is no atmosphere and thus no possibility for the action-reaction to be met with the atmosphere.

Even in the atmosphere it still doesn't work. You have the gas in the rocket, it needs a force to move it out. The atmosphere is on the wrong side.

The only thing that it can use for the reaction is the rocket.

The action-reaction is the rocket moving forwards and the gas moving back, as simple as that.

Again, stop just asserting pathetic nonsense and actually deal with what has been said.

That rocket cannot gain any further vertical acceleration after this
Again, stop just repeating the same baseless garbage.
You have absolutely no basis for that at all.


There is no more force.
Then there is no more thrust.


If they were pushed against each other then the gases inside would create their own medium between the objects and push them apart by means of stacking that gas.
Right, so a rocket works by the gas inside making a medium and stacking that gas?
So rockets do work in a vacuum.

Good job refuting yourself yet again.
It also makes your earlier statement entirely meaningless.

But what about cases where there is no gas?

All they would do is push each other to the extent of their lever and stop dead.
Why?
Why would they magically stop dead? What is there to stop them?

It's all about putting your mind to work.
Again, you should really try it some time.

A car has a controlled air intake and fuel intake.
You mean like the rocket with it's fuel and oxidiser pumps?

It's not based on allowing a fuel pump to super pump fuel and air into the piston chamber.
It is effectively the same, with the car having fuel and air injected into the chamber.

You cannot regulate hydrogen, oxygen and kerosene into a so called combustion chamber at the rates we are told and then expect to ignite it  for an internal push, for crying out loud.
It would blow the rocket to smithereens.
Again, PROVE IT!
Again, that is just like saying you cannot regulate air and petrol into a so called combustion chamber at the rates we are told and then expect to ignite it for an internal push. It would blow the engine to smithereens.

Already done. Refusal to accept it is not my issue, it's your issue.
Stop lying.
You are yet to present a diagram which has an arrow of force on the rocket.
You are yet to present a diagram which has action and reaction pairs.

Nobody is telling you to accept it as that. I'm simply counteracting your stance on your belief of official stories told to you or what you read and accepted as fact, based on zero physical knowledge.
And that is the problem, what you are spouting is based upon zero physical knowledge. What you are dismissing is based upon plenty of physical knowledge.

I think I've refuted them quite easily
Dismissing them as hogwash is not refuting them.
You are yet to even attempt to refute them.

I explained it well enough for anyone who wished to try to understand it.
You mean you have "explained" it well enough for anyone wanting to just accept the BS.
You haven't even begun to explain it as you are still yet to explain what is pushing the rocket up, nor how the gas can leave the tube without pushing the rocket.

Again, try to genuinely explain it.

You're losing the argument by doing this.
No, the argument was lost for your side before you even joined, by the same simple issue you are still avoiding.
Until you actually deal with that issue, you have lost.

The diagram I gave is fine. It shows exactly what's happening in reality.
So in reality there is no force acting on the rocket? So the rocket just sits there.
Sorry, simple observations show that to be pure BS.

Your diagram doesn't match reality at all.

Your balloon diagram is fictional. It cannot work and any rational person should see that.
If it can't work, then explain what is wrong with it. Don't just assert a bunch of garbage or dismiss it, actually explain what is wrong with it.

It's not based on allowing a fuel pump to super pump fuel and air into the piston chamber. The carb regulates it so you get just enough air and fuel to ignite and create a burn with each spark and in turn pushing down a piston to mechanically operate the gears and drive shafts.

Wow, you're really starting to make stuff up. Ever hear of a supercharger?

A supercharger is an air compressor that increases the pressure or density of air supplied to an internal combustion engine. This gives each intake cycle of the engine more oxygen, letting it burn more fuel and do more work, thus increasing power.

"Max, look at the blower..."

My 2006 Cooper has a supercharger. Hasn't blown up...yet.

The rocket has zero need to create this. It would be counter productive and massive added mass for zero return.
You cannot regulate hydrogen, oxygen and kerosene into a so called combustion chamber at the rates we are told and then expect to ignite it  for an internal push, for crying out loud.
It would blow the rocket to smithereens.

How so? I regulate the gas flow and air intake into my barbecue and it hasn't blown up...yet. For crying out loud.

If the barrier is pushing the rocket, does it not mean there should be a force line?

It's not a case of simply having A force line. There's never one particular force line. It's a case of mass expansion to mass compression in a chain reaction scenario.

It's like allowing a compressed spring (rocket gas to burn) to be released from above so it expands (uncoils) towards the ground. BUT..........BUT..... imagine directly under that uncoiling spring you have a uncoiled spring (atmosphere) which absorbs the expansion of the above spring (rocket gas/burn) and is then compressed itself, until that strength of uncoiling from above cannot compress it any more.
It's at this exact point where the rocket is at a stage of being able to be held, or ride atop of that spring uncoiling from it whilst balancing on that spring below.


Now all you have to understand from this point ion is the rocket thrusting continuously or to get back to the spring, the spring from above (rocket/gas/burn) continuously uncoiling at that strength and the below spring (atmosphere) compressing and holding to enable that ride on that spring.


Now equate that to the trampoline analogy I gave with the direct push into a delve in the trampoline and you see how it's directly contained for only the specific time required at each thrust.

It's not a case of simply having A force line. There's never one particular force line.
Then draw multiple pictures showing how the forces change over time to manage to push the rocket.
Or show lines which are an average.

Either way, YOU NEED AN ARROW OF FORCE ON THE ROCKET!

Now equate that to the trampoline analogy I gave
Or pay attention to what I have already said about it.
Your nonsense requires that when we bounce on a trampoline, our feet go through the trampoline while our torso goes up by magic, with no force acting on it.

Again, a simple trampoline shows your nonsense to be wrong, as the gas doesn't go up with the rocket.

The only thing that it can use for the reaction is the rocket.
The rocket is merely a container for the gases to be released against the atmosphere and the rocket rides atop of that fight.

There's no push inside of the rocket. It's all done externally.

Note how narrow the exhaust trail is, hardly wider than the rocket's width.

Then, at high altitude and very low air-pressure the exhaust stream can spread out:

See how wide the exhaust trail has expanded in the much lower pressure air.

But it neither case is there the slightest sign of the exhaust gas hitting any barrier.

The greater thrust is merely what the rocket can give out against what opposes it.
A rocket lifting off at full thrust is doing so at sea level.
That rocket cannot gain any further vertical acceleration after this, it can only maintain it by being allowed to thrust more into a burn and that can only happen if the atmosphere reduces the external pressure, which it does, all the way up.

More thrust but no extra gain other than a stable in flight rocket, until the fuel on board is not enough to continue the fight.

This rocket seems to gain quite a lot of speed after take-off (Watch the telemetry HUD, lower left). What are you talking about?

Quote from: Stash
A car has a controlled air intake and fuel intake.
It's not based on allowing a fuel pump to super pump fuel and air into the piston chamber. The carb regulates it so you get just enough air and fuel to ignite and create a burn with each spark and in turn pushing down a piston to mechanically operate the gears and drive shafts.

Wow, you're really starting to make stuff up. Ever hear of a supercharger?

A supercharger is an air compressor that increases the pressure or density of air supplied to an internal combustion engine. This gives each intake cycle of the engine more oxygen, letting it burn more fuel and do more work, thus increasing power.

"Max, look at the blower..."

My 2006 Cooper has a supercharger. Hasn't blown up...yet.
I've bolded the pertinent part.

Just in case you're scratching your head, your super charger is compressing the atmospheric air.
Your rocket is carrying compressed oxygen and hydrogen. It does not need and cannot be super charged by compression....it already is and when released under it's own expansion, you would need to control the flow, not add to it, so a pump is about as much needed as a chocolate fireguard on a cold winters fire warming evening.

Let's hark back to the saturn V nonsense.
Show me the combustion chamber and show me the pumps, then explain to me how each chamber manages to not only fill with gas and kerosene but also be ignited and burned at the mammoth amounts we're told about.

Let's see you sort this old mess out.
By all means use as much info as you can get to try and back yourself up.
Nobody has managed it yet.....let's see you do it.





Quote from: Stash
The rocket has zero need to create this. It would be counter productive and massive added mass for zero return.
You cannot regulate hydrogen, oxygen and kerosene into a so called combustion chamber at the rates we are told and then expect to ignite it  for an internal push, for crying out loud.
It would blow the rocket to smithereens.

How so? I regulate the gas flow and air intake into my barbecue and it hasn't blown up...yet. For crying out loud.
Yep you regulate it to cook.
If you want your rocket to lift off at full thrust you are regulating nothing after that. It's a burn at full thrust for the atmosphere it is in at each point.
There's no regulation and none required unless you were to shut it down or starve it, which would kill it, so it's pointless.

It's not a case of simply having A force line. There's never one particular force line.
Then draw multiple pictures showing how the forces change over time to manage to push the rocket.
Or show lines which are an average.

Either way, YOU NEED AN ARROW OF FORCE ON THE ROCKET!

Now equate that to the trampoline analogy I gave
Or pay attention to what I have already said about it.
Your nonsense requires that when we bounce on a trampoline, our feet go through the trampoline while our torso goes up by magic, with no force acting on it.

Again, a simple trampoline shows your nonsense to be wrong, as the gas doesn't go up with the rocket.
When you show me exactly how your space rocket works by simple and basic explanation of a clear and simple to see diagram, I'll be happy to go through varying stages on the rocket.
In fact I'm in the middle of putting such a thing together to explain it in as basic a way as possible, using many rocket diagrams (crude drawings in paint) to show stages both in atmosphere and what low pressure would do to a rocket.

In the meantime, you get to work showing why they work in your vacuum, because you still haven't explained anything other than one arrow going one way into the rocket and another going the other way into that rocket nozzle, so explain what's happening and why.

Title: Re: HAPPY HOAX ANNIVERSARY!!! (Rockets can't fly in a vacuum)
Post by: JackBlack on January 09, 2020, 01:32:24 AM
There's no push inside of the rocket. It's all done externally.
Again, what is pushing on the rocket? Can you explain that at all.
Stop just saying it sits on crap. Actually explain what provide the force to the rocket to push it up and where this is happening.

Again, until you do you have not even attempted to explain how rockets work.

I've bolded the pertinent part.
No, just like always you have completely ignored the pertinent part.
The part you have ignored is that it pumps air.

Your rocket is carrying compressed oxygen and hydrogen. It does not need and cannot be super charged by compression
Again, pure nonsense.
If that was the case the same would apply to the piston.
The piston is at a very low pressure when the air is injected in. It is just like a rocket. You have an absolutely massive tank of pressurised air, yet to get the most power out of the engine, the car is driving forwards at a high rate of speed to force more air in and a supercharger pumps even more in.

According to you, all that isn't needed at all and the pressure of the atmosphere alone should be enough.

But even that isn't the main point.
You claimed that pumping the fuel and air in causes a rocket to explode, yet it doesn't make a car explode, so why should it make a rocket explode?

If you want your rocket to lift off at full thrust you are regulating nothing after that.
Again, pure nonsense.

You have a massively circular argument which refutes itself.
You say if it isn't regulated it would blow up and that you shouldn't regulate it (as if you want it to blow up).

If instead you had a brain and were trying to design a rocket to fly instead of blow up, then you do regulate it.
Regulation is useful if you don't want it to blow up and if you want to be able to control it.

When you show me exactly how your space rocket works by simple and basic explanation of a clear and simple to see diagram, I'll be happy to go through varying stages on the rocket.
Stop lying. You have made plenty of promises like that before, yet every time I meet my end you just skip out on yours.
What is even more dishonest, is that that explanation has been provided to you countless times, and you have just dismissed it as nonsense each time with no rational objection to it.

Again, the most basic way is simple conservation of momentum. The gas forces the rocket forwards and the rocket forces the gas backwards.
Nice and simple action-reaction.

Another simple way is just focusing on the pressure, that high pressure gas is not balanced on the rocket and as such produces a net force.

This has already been provided to you, complete with diagrams.

Give me a hit of whatever you're smoking. Of course rockets can be governed/regulated toward max acceleration or less if designed to be operated in such a way. So can my BBQ. Who told you they can't snd why?

There's plenty of signs of a gas fight.You can view it every day with everything.
All you need to do is to use a small bit of logical understanding of the simplicity of it.

Of course not. But why am I supposed to suspect otherwise that it's not real? It's not the only one out there for one. There are plenty.

You're not supposed to do anything. You can choose what you want to do and you have. You chose to accept it all as legitimate without (as you admit) knowing the truth.

It also does not give you grounds to call me wrong in questioning it and refusing to believe it until satisfied that facts prove me wrong.
This hasn't happened and this is where I am.

Thousands and thousands of pictures, words, models and even video of all kinds of stuff, that, to any normal everyday go about your life person will accept as a truth and argue as a truther, without actually knowing the truth.

It depends on what you decide is evidence.
I have done small  experiments with evacuation chambers and also simple logical deductions as well as seeing what I believe to be discrepancies with a lot of what we're shown.
Silly stuff like atmosphere changing as a rocket launches, for no reason legitimate wise but it makes perfect sense why things would be altered if we were being duped.

Rockets dropping rovers into mars atmosphere that was supposedly so close to a vacuum and yet used parachutes.
I could go on and on and on with all this so called evidence.
Voyager 1 and 2 supposedly billions and billions of miles into deep space and still sending back data.
Something sent from the 70's, apparently.
And yet we struggle to communicate on Earth.

It beggars belief that people fall for this utter utter garbage but they do.


Quote from: Stash

Very simple.
Visiting a rocket on the launchpad to see and inspect it to see if it is made of what we are told.
Then viewing the space where the so called astronauts sit.
And then once satisfied with that, watching those same so called astronauts get into the rocket and be strapped inside with a camera videoing the capsule door firly closed as well as any other potential exits under camera surveillance.
Then watch it lift off from the very same vantage points of the so called experts seen looking out of windows at the supposed same thing.

That's it. If that happened I would not even want to see it go out of sight. I would accept I'm totally wrong from that point.

What's the chances of that happening?



Quote from: Stash

Not being able to see he physical truth of any of this stuff. That's evidence enough that something is amiss but only physical proof of seeing what I'm arguing against will put the cat amongst the pigeons.

You don't have to take notice. You can ditch this right now and just sit back and smirk.

What I argue with you people is not for your benefit. You lot are merely the counterargument to my counterargument. Or basically, you lot are the resistance to the potential reality by adhering to fiction as your reality...from my side...and obviously vice versa.

The people who really count are those who are interested, who can see there's issue with what we're told.
They're the people that will sit back and take notice, amid you and others attempts to try to badger me out of it.

No, you are the one that differs from what almost everybody else claims is real so the onus is one you to come up with evidence.
So you show some proof that your idea of how gases behave is correct when it simply does not make sense to anyone else.

You claim that the atmosphere "stacks" and causes a nett downward force on objects but fluids cannot do that.

And I don't remember you ever having given any logical reason why all these space agencies, including SpaceX, Blue Origin, Arianespace, ROSCOSMOS, ISRO, JAXA, NASA, Rocket Lab, Virgin Galactic and a few others would waste billions of dollars a year launching rockets that do nothing!

Why would they do that?

Maybe we can try another approach.
Why do you feel arrows don't need to be pushing on the rocket - when you claim the rocket sits on the barrier.
If the barrier is pushing the rocket, does it not mean there should be a force line?

It's not a case of simply having A force line. There's never one particular force line. It's a case of mass expansion to mass compression in a chain reaction scenario.

It's like allowing a compressed spring (rocket gas to burn) to be released from above so it expands (uncoils) towards the ground. BUT..........BUT..... imagine directly under that uncoiling spring you have a uncoiled spring (atmosphere) which absorbs the expansion of the above spring (rocket gas/burn) and is then compressed itself, until that strength of uncoiling from above cannot compress it any more.
It's at this exact point where the rocket is at a stage of being able to be held, or ride atop of that spring uncoiling from it whilst balancing on that spring below.


Now all you have to understand from this point ion is the rocket thrusting continuously or to get back to the spring, the spring from above (rocket/gas/burn) continuously uncoiling at that strength and the below spring (atmosphere) compressing and holding to enable that ride on that spring.


Now equate that to the trampoline analogy I gave with the direct push into a delve in the trampoline and you see how it's directly contained for only the specific time required at each thrust.

We all understood your pov and are attempting to help you work through your thoughts....

See above in bold.
The top side of the rocket spring also pushing the rocket UP.
There would be a force line transmitting from groubdspring to the rocketspring up to rocket.

Draw that arrow on your green bar.

Post by: JackBlack on January 09, 2020, 01:51:17 PM
I didn't say it sits on crap.
I paraphrased.
The point is you are just repeatedly saying it is sitting on crap without telling us what force is acting on the rocket.
Until you tell us what force is acting on the rocket and where that force is applied to the rocket you haven't even attempted to explain it.
Likewise, until you tell us what force is acting on the gas to have it exit the rocket and what the reactionary force to that is (i.e. what the gas is pushing off to leave the rocket), you have failed to even attempt to explain it.

Stop just repeatedly lying by saying you have explained it when you have made no attempt to.

Again, tell us how the gas accelerates out of the rocket and how the rocket moves forwards.
Tell us what 2 bodies are interacting for each of these situations and what force is being applied where.

The only thing in your favour is, nobody is willing to back me up to say that I did explain it
And the fact that you never explained it and never made any attempt to, instead repeatedly dodging requests to explain it and just lying and saying you have.
And the mountains of evidence that rockets do work in space which you just ignore.
And basic physics and the evidence which backs that up.

Now what is in your favour?
People that feel a need to reject the reality of rockets working in space because they disprove their FE fantasy, who are incapable of providing an explanation of how rockets work and instead just repeatedly assert that they have, and who are completely incapable of showing any problem with the conventional explanation of how rockets work.

However, I know I have explained and that's good enough for me.
See, it is statements like these which show you aren't acting like you are just providing your opinion. These statements show that you are acting like you are providing facts.

In the meantime show me how your space rockets work.
I already have repeatedly. You were unable to show a single thing wrong the explanation and instead just dismissed it as nonsense.
Go back and read what has already been provided.
Or if you don't want to do that, actually provide an explanation of how rockets work.
Or address the issue that has been plaguing your side of this thread before you joined.
What happens in a vacuum? Does the gas leave the tube? If so, how?
What is it pushing against? The only object available is the rocket, which would mean it is pushing against the rocket and thus rockets work.
If it isn't pushing against the rocket then the only options are that it pushes against itself or it doesn't need to push against anything, either way allowing rockets to work in a vacuum.

And you've watched many or some or one...have you?
I'm not the paranoid one rejecting reality. I have enough evidence to conclude that rockets will work in space and see no need to go watch them.
You are the one who should be going to watch them considering you think they are fake.

Now, if someone claimed NCC1701 USS enterprise was being launched, that I would want to go and see, as that would either be a stealing of a name, or almost certainly a fake as it relies upon pure fiction to work.

I'm not doubting rocket launches.
Yes you were. You dismissed the launches people see as fake.

I'm not questioning real rockets
No, you are outright rejecting them. Remember, real rockets work in space. If you reject rockets working in space, you are rejecting real rockets.

No I'm not, so who's sitting there reeling off bullcrap?
Still you, where you quite happily change your story as it suits you, repeatedly contradicting yourself.

Simple physics do not dictate rockets work.
Then why are you completely incapable of refuting this very real simple physics which demands they do work?

Just repeating the same pathetic dismissals shows that you have no case and that you know you have no case.

Trust me on this; if I didn't see anything that gave me a mind to question it, I wouldn't be questioning.
And what gives you a mind to question it?
The fact that they are incompatible with your FE fantasy?

What from reality gives you mind to question it?
You are yet to demonstrate any problem at all with it.
Instead, the only "problem" seems to be that they show you are wrong.

I have done small  experiments with evacuation chambers and also simple logical deductions as well as seeing what I believe to be discrepancies with a lot of what we're shown.
Silly stuff like atmosphere changing as a rocket launches, for no reason legitimate wise but it makes perfect sense why things would be altered if we were being duped.
You know what I'm talking about so don't waste your time asking me to prove it. It's all there in the videos we are told to accept as a truth.
No, we don't know what you are talking about.
So far the only experiment you have provided is one where beads bounced off a spinning disk in a vacuum chamber.
Nothing challenging real physics or the reality of rockets working in space.

Simple logical deductions show you to be completely wrong, which is why you have been repeatedly ignoring them or dismissing them as nonsense.

Of course it doesn't fit my world view. It doesn't fit because I see too many discrepancies.
[/quote]
What discrepancies?
Discrepancies with reality, which you are unable to provide a single one?
Or just discrepancies with your FE fantasy?

Again, stop with the insults. It fits our world view because it is backed up by mountains of evidence and actually makes sense. It has nothing to do with being brainwashed or peer pressured into it.

It beggars belief that people fall for this utter utter garbage but they do.
Except again, you are yet to show a single problem with it.
The only problem seems to be that it shows you are wrong.

Why should people reject reality, just because it shows you are wrong?

Visiting a rocket on the launchpad to see and inspect it to see if it is made of what we are told.
Then viewing the space where the so called astronauts sit.
And then once satisfied with that, watching those same so called astronauts get into the rocket and be strapped inside with a camera videoing the capsule door firly closed as well as any other potential exits under camera surveillance.
Then watch it lift off from the very same vantage points of the so called experts seen looking out of windows at the supposed same thing.
i.e. an extremely high standard which you know you will not get unless you pay a lot of money.
i.e. you have absolutely no interest in finding out the truth and instead just want to reject it at all costs because it shows you are wrong.

Not being able to see he physical truth of any of this stuff.
No, that is not evidence to any sane person.
The people who own it all have no obligation to meet your demands to show you that it is real.

That is not evidence that you are correct at all.


I'm simply putting my point across as strongly as you people are, whether you accept any of it or none of it.
You might think you are, but you are not.
You are failing to provide any logical arguments to back up your claims, or any evidence to back them up, while repeating having your claims refuted.

In order to be putting your point as strongly as we are putting ours, you would need to provide diagrams clearly showing a force on the rocket. You would need to explain how the gas and rocket accelerate, including what force is acting where and what the reactionary force to it is.

You would need to address the issues which you flee from.

However, I will tell you that rockets into the space they tell us about, is nonsense...and this is what we're arguing.
And that is the problem.
You "tell" us. You don't provide any rational argument against them. You don't provide any problem with the explanations of how they work. You don't provide any alternative explanation which actually explains anything and you flee from the issues which show they MUST work.

Stop just "telling" us and start justifying your claims.
Provide actual explanations.
Provide actual problems with the explanations we have provided.
Deal with the issues that have been presented.

There's evidence been posted many a time.
What evidence?
I am yet to see any from you.
There has been plenty of claims of such evidence being presented, but never any actual evidence.

How do satellites get into position?
They don't.
Then you need to deal with what is faking them, where for GPS, with so much information available, the only option would be to completely blanket Earth in transmitters which would very noticeable and still has the potential for serious failure.
The only rational explanation for how GPS works is with satellites.

You can photograph it with an ordinary camera or better through a telescope and see its shape.

Only someone quite out of touch with reality could possibly deny that something is up the travelling at about 7 km/sec and no helium balloon or aeroplane can do that.

Wrong.

Whatever it is, it is not travelling. That requires fuel and it's been up there for years.

It is actually falling.

Not wrong! The ISS is travelling along a trajectory in curve spacetime. You can call it "falling" if you like but the ISS is still travelling.
And I'm far from the only one that uses travelling in that context:
Quote from: Phys.org
ISS completes 100,000th orbit of Earth: mission control (https://m.phys.org/news/2016-05-international-space-station-100000th-orbit.html)
"Today the ISS made its hundred thousandth orbit around Earth," the mission control centre based in the Moscow region said in a statement.
Travelling at an altitude of about 250 miles (400 kilometres) and a speed of about 17,500 miles (28,000 kilometres) per hour, the space station circles the Earth once every 90 minutes.
Its "anniversary orbit" lasted from 7:35 am to 9:10 am Moscow time (0435 to 0610 GMT), mission control said.
The ISS has now travelled 2.6 billion miles "or about the distance of 10 round trips to Mars," NASA said on the station's official Twitter feed.

"This is a significant milestone and is a tribute to this international partnership made up of the European Space Agency, of Russia, Canada, Japan and the United States," US flight engineer Jeff Williams said from the station in a video posted by NASA.


Quote from: Shifter
That requires fuel
The only fuel used in that the ISS used as it travelled those 2.6 billion miles was a relatively small amount for the periodic reboots.

Quote from: Shifter
and it's been up there for years. It is actually falling.
You can look on it as falling if you need simplistic explanations like that but the ISS is still travelling.

Evidence, not just your musings is required. A million points of evidence have been shown as to how rockets work and how they work in a vacuum and you haven't presented a lick of evidence of how they don't.

What would evidence look like to you that shows you are wrong? What would evidence look like to you that shows you are correct?

If you presented a video, or a paper, or a book, or, god forbid, some math, that showed you had an actual reality stance, I would take notice and not dismiss out of hand like you do for everything. But you present nothing to even remotely back your musings up. Nothing. Just dismals for the not so modern world and insults. Curious that you have no evidence.

You're not supposed to do anything. You can choose what you want to do and you have. You chose to accept it all as legitimate without (as you admit) knowing the truth. Maybe you should adjust your musings to accommodate evidence rather than just dismiss everything as fake. Far more sciency to do so.

It also does not give you grounds to call me wrong in questioning it and refusing to believe it until satisfied that facts prove me wrong.
This hasn't happened and this is where I am.

I just look at it logically. Lots of amateur rocketeers post their launches on YT with telemetry info. They show their rockets gaining speed. I'm not of a mind that these regular folks are conspiring to dupe people. No motive, no crime. There's a lot of stuff, most stuff in fact, we as humans don't have first-hand truth of. That doesn't mean all of those things are fake.

There are plenty of pictures of men on the moon or rovers on mars or drawings of voyagers into deep space....as we are told. And son on and so on and so on.
Thousands and thousands of pictures, words, models and even video of all kinds of stuff, that, to any normal everyday go about your life person will accept as a truth and argue as a truther, without actually knowing the truth.

Can you understand that?
Of course you can jump up and shout as loud as you want that they're all real.
They're being questioned because people see too much dodgy stuff with a lot of it.

Trust me on this; if I didn't see anything that gave me a mind to question it, I wouldn't be questioning.

That is simply not the case in all instances within humanity. Your hubris in this regard is overwhelming. Many people study, learn, experiment, and explore to conjure, engineer, and build many of the modern devices we have that would have seemed like magic decades earlier. It's called progress.

To perpetually insult people with this notion shows a distinct lack of credence to any of your musings. Your musings should support themselves under extreme scrutiny alone - Because they are extreme, alternate notions without evidence your burden is great and must be handled with humility, not hostility. Again, you may want to examine the evidence put forth and see if it can be accommodated within your notions rather than just dismiss and rail against. You just might find out even more, maybe even learn something.

Quote from: Stash
Sorry, that's not good enough. Evidence, not just your musings is required.

My evidence will never suit you.
Equally you do not possess the evidence that will suit me.
I simply want facts.
Can you provide the facts from your person?

I guess according to you, unless you've had a heart transplant or been in the OR when someone did, heart transplants are a fiction, bereft of fact.

Your evidence would never suit me because you have never attempted to provide any and for that reason alone. If you showed me a video from an amateur rocketeer that showed, for instance, theirs never gained speed, and a bunch of them, I would definitely take notice. So far, there doesn't seem to be anything on the planet from a third party that backs up your musings.

Quote from: Stash
A million points of evidence have been shown as to how rockets work and how they work in a vacuum and you haven't presented a lick of evidence of how they don't.

Of course.
We've been told rockets placed satellites 23,000 miles into space.

My Direct TV dish on my house points up into the sky in the exact direction where it is claimed a geostationary satellite is. If I don't believe now I have to add AT&T to the the ever deepening conspiracy bucket.

Rockets dropping rovers into mars atmosphere that was supposedly so close to a vacuum and yet used parachutes.

"...there is an atmosphere on Mars — just not much of one, It’s less than 1% of Earth’s...On Earth a parachute can easily slow a spacecraft (or a person) down enough to achieve a gentle landing, but InSight’s parachute could only slow the spacecraft to about 200 miles/hour — still way too fast...InSight then used rockets to slow the spacecraft down enough for a gentle landing...the Martian atmosphere couldn’t slow InSight down enough for a safe landing, but it did a lot of the work. Between aerodynamic braking and the supersonic parachute, the Martian atmosphere was still responsible for slowing InSight down from a screaming 11,300 miles/hour to about 200 miles/hour. Not bad for a few wisps of carbon dioxide..."

See, this is something you could poke around and explore, even debunk after knowledge gained. Even I could see how your musings could accomplish this after learning as much as I have about DP.

I could go on and on and on with all this so called evidence.
Voyager 1 and 2 supposedly billions and billions of miles into deep space and still sending back data.
Something sent from the 70's, apparently.
And yet we struggle to communicate on Earth.

It beggars belief that people fall for this utter utter garbage but they do.

"Voyager 1 data takes about 19 hours to reach Earth, and signals from Voyager 2 about 16 hours." I'm not sure why you would have a problem with that.

Quote from: Stash
What would evidence look like to you that shows you are wrong?
Very simple.
Visiting a rocket on the launchpad to see and inspect it to see if it is made of what we are told.
Then viewing the space where the so called astronauts sit.
And then once satisfied with that, watching those same so called astronauts get into the rocket and be strapped inside with a camera videoing the capsule door firly closed as well as any other potential exits under camera surveillance.
Then watch it lift off from the very same vantage points of the so called experts seen looking out of windows at the supposed same thing.

That's it. If that happened I would not even want to see it go out of sight. I would accept I'm totally wrong from that point.

What's the chances of that happening?

Zero chance. But the same goes for just about everything. What are the chances of me believing that F1 drivers really rip around Monaco like I've seen on TV? I'll never be in Monaco, I'll never be in the pit, I'll never see the driver get strapped into the most advanced land vehicle ever designed. Ergo, I don't believe an automobile can exist that supposedly performs all of those wondrous duties, nor do I believe the people privy to and responsible for it?

Quote from: Stash
What would evidence look like to you that shows you are correct?
Not being able to see he physical truth of any of this stuff. That's evidence enough that something is amiss but only physical proof of seeing what I'm arguing against will put the cat amongst the pigeons.

Then why do you believe in a dome as opposed to myriad other explanations of our world? There is no physical truth to a dome or a carbonite sun buried in the north pole. How do you reconcile that those notions you have aren't amiss due to lack of 'physical truth'?

Quote from: Stash
If you presented a video, or a paper, or a book, or, god forbid, some math, that showed you had an actual reality stance, I would take notice and not dismiss out of hand like you do for everything. But you present nothing to even remotely back your musings up. Nothing. Just dismals for the not so modern world and insults. Curious that you have no evidence.
You don't have to take notice. You can ditch this right now and just sit back and smirk.
I'm not asking you to accept what I say. I'm simply putting my point across as strongly as you people are, whether you accept any of it or none of it.

You're not putting it across as strongly because you present no evidence, experiments, backing of any sort for you claims. The proponderence of evidence is vastly against you especially considering you present zero.

What I argue with you people is not for your benefit. You lot are merely the counterargument to my counterargument. Or basically, you lot are the resistance to the potential reality by adhering to fiction as your reality...from my side...and obviously vice versa.

The people who really count are those who are interested, who can see there's issue with what we're told.
They're the people that will sit back and take notice, amid you and others attempts to try to badger me out of it.

You could upend the course of history and revolutionize the bulk of technology used around the world if you could show a smidge of what you claim is true. So far, no takers. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar and maybe you're barking up the wrong tree.

How do satellites get into position?
They don't.
Then you need to deal with what is faking them, where for GPS, with so much information available, the only option would be to completely blanket Earth in transmitters which would very noticeable and still has the potential for serious failure.
The only rational explanation for how GPS works is with satellites.
The places are blanketed in transmitters and many are atop skyscrapers, not to mention the every increasing amount of towers being built. They're all over, so don't be giving me that flannel.

They can't be in space because it doesn't exist.
All that is left is higher altitude for man made objects that can sit in it, such as helium/hydrogen, etc blimps or whatever can sit above a atmospheric cut off point to balanced out a buoyancy.

The rocket is still pushing on the atmosphere, it is obvious because there is nothing else there. What kind of drugs are you on that makes you so dense?

Dense? For not allowing to get forced by you into misconceptions?

Inside a rocket engine there is burning mixture of fuel and oxidizer.
The burn creates pressure that pushes in all directions.
At the nozzle side the pressure of 70 bar pushes (and carries) the exhaust out into open space (atmosphere or vacuum),
where the pressure is between 1 bar and 0 bar, depending on where the rocket is.
At the opposite side the chamber pressure (still 70 bar) pushes the closed side of the chamber
and "like a tidal wave" carries the engine, and the rocket with it.

Additionally, inside the nozzle funnel (and after it) the exhaust expands sideways as well.
On the angled funnel walls the expansion creates forces whose longitudinal components add to the rocket's acceleration.

So, when we patiently show you how rocket engine works in and out of atmosphere,
and you stubbornly keep denying and twisting the explanations, then who is really dense in the whole picture?

Of course, you believe that there's a millennia old conspiracy (started by NASA ;D) to hide "THE TRUTH" but I don't.

Sure, spacecraft have been sent to rendezvous with asteroids - why is that a problem?

The real problem is whether any current technology could guarantee to deflect the asteroid.
Nuclear weapons are puny compared to asteroids posing a serious threat.
Not only that but our predictions are not yet perfect and a near miss might be turned into a collision.

No, I most certainly would not consider that Star Wars trash was real! You ask my wife what I think of Star Wars Space Westerns!

I dont believe things simply because I'm told! I examine the evidence and make sure that I can understand that such things are feasible.

And rockets in a vacuum present not the slightest problem because they fit with what I have understood from physics for decades.

In fact I'm such a sceptic that when transistors were first announced I simply said "That is impossible ???!  How can electrons be controlled ina solid?  Someone is trying to fool us!"
Little did I know that semiconductors were very real, though then rather primitive, and that much of my working life would be designing systems using them.

"Real space rockets" are eminently feasible and I and most others understand why and how they work.
Not the slightest problem at all!

Your "coal fired pyramid hovercraft" is quite out of the realm of feasibility though not totally impossible.

The only possibly reason that i can see for you failure to understand rockets is that admitting that they are real would totally destroy your "world-view".

Come on guys.  Less than 5 pages to go to get another scepti century thread.
I'm only on page 58.

The rocket is still pushing on the atmosphere, it is obvious because there is nothing else there. What kind of drugs are you on that makes you so dense?
No, it isn't obvious at all.

There is something else there, something very obvious; the gas which is being ejected at a very high velocity.

Again, can you address the issue that has been plaguing the reality deniers from near the start of this thread?
What causes the gas to leave the rocket (especially in a vacuum).
The only thing it can push off to leave is the rocket (either directly or indirectly by pushing on the gas which in turn pushes the rocket).

That would mean that the rocket is pushed by the gas as it pushes the gas away.
No need for the atmosphere.

The places are blanketed in transmitters and many are atop skyscrapers
That is still not blanketed to the level needed for GPS, and I don't see many skyscrapers or the like out of cities.

Your argument would only work if GPS only worked in cities.

So don't give me that crap.

They can't be in space because it doesn't exist.
Except that is the only place they can be, so space must exist.
Again, you have provided absolutely no justification for the nonexistence of space, or for rockets nor working in a vacuum, or even how they work anywhere.

If you were told the starship enterprise was reaL you'd accept it.
No, I would reject it as it relies upon pure fantasy.

If you were told both armageddon shuttles were real and were headed to blow an asteroid up, you'd believe it.
No, I would reject it unless they told me the "asteroid" they were going to blow up was more appropriately called a tiny rock.

Your entire argument is based upon assuming we are all gullible fools that are incapable of thinking and will just accept whatever BS is spouted so you can then just dismiss everything as BS.

How about you stop with the insults and try defending your nonsense?
Tell us how the gas accelerates to leave the tube in a vacuum?
Tell us what it is pushing against.
Do the same for when it is in the atmosphere.
Draw a diagram showing the arrow of force on the rocket, or provide an actual explanation of exactly what forces the rocket up and where this force is applied.
Tell us how 2 objects separated by a spring will magically stop when the spring is relaxed, even though there is no force on them to make them stop?

Correct, it will depend on who is telling the stories or who sells the storylines for fiction told as fact or fact told as legitimate fact.
And you left out the key part, EVIDENCE!
That is something you are severely lacking, but which plenty exists for rockets.
You need to reject all that for rockets with a massive conspiracy which is pure insanity, all so you can cling to your FE fantasy.

Now again, how about you stop with the insults and distractions and deal with one of the major issues plaguing your claims.

Tell us how the gas accelerates in a vacuum, or provide a diagram showing the forces acting on a rocket and the gas, clearly showing the action-reaction pairs.

So you telling me those rockets are real space rockets is like telling me the pyramids are coal fired hovercrafts.
The thing is that we aren't just telling you, but we're also explaining how the space rockets work based on well known and well established scientific principles.  You're the one who is saying that everything that we think we know about physics is wrong and we should just take your word on how things really work.

Fix your drawing or tells us why the green bar doesnt exert a force on the balloon
The bar is merely to show the crash compression from internal to the compression externally.
Now all you need to do is picture this happening in nano seconds until the fuel is depleted.

What's this crap about "nano seconds"?
Do you even think about what you write? Apparently not!
The Falcon 9 second stage carries about 64,000 kg of propellant. It would impossible to burn that in nano seconds.

It fact that engine burns for over 6 1/2 minutes. Stop talking utter rubbish and face reality.

And it does absolutely nothing to show us how the gas accelerates from the rocket or how the rocket is accelerated.
Especially as already pointed out, you have no arrow of force acting on the rocket, and your force arrows are completely unbalanced.

For example, consider the arrow furthest to the left.
I presume this is meant to be an arrow of force accelerating the gas towards the right.
What is the reactionary force for this?
What is this gas pushing against to accelerate out of the rocket?

Newtons so called laws have not been proven to work at all in terms of what really happens.
They simply state so called inertia or f=ma but not what causes it.

This is the issue and if it's not explained then it's a nonsense, just like space rockets are a nonsense.

Newtons so called laws have not been proven to work at all in terms of what really happens.
They are backed up by mountains of evidence and rational thought.
All you can do to counter them is dismiss them as nonsense.
If it actually was nonsense you would be able to explain why.

None of the one's you lot put down are coherent.

No, it doesn't.
The diagrams we have put down are coherent.
You have been unable to identify a single flaw with them.
Meanwhile we have clearly explained why your diagrams are incoherent, the most obvious being that THEY LACK A FORCE ACTING ON THE ROCKET!

So no, it doesn't work both ways.

I perfectly explained it and if you'd paid attention you'd grasp it
You mean you repeatedly failed to explain it because you know there is no way you can explain yet cling to your fantasy, so you just lie and repeatedly claim to have explained it.
The problem is I have been paying attention and clearly see that you haven't explained it.

You are still yet to offer any explanation for the gas is forced out of the rocket which actually address what even you claim is required for motion, something for it to push off.
Likewise you have completely failed to offer any actual explanation for what is pushing the rocket, instead avoiding that question at all costs, just like you are doing now.

Did you ever watch an episode of mythbusters where they wanted to see if a helicopter inside a truck would make the truck weigh less if it was hovered inside of it instead of laid on the floor of that truck?

If you did, do you recall no change in measured weight because the blades pushed the atmosphere down to create  a much larger compression of the atmosphere under that helicopter, meaning it could push into the atmosphere above by resting on this compressed air?

You see, to hover it has to push down on the truck with it's own mass of compressed air.
The more it compresses the more it can sit on that compressive build up, meaning it can move higher.

The rocket does the same thing in essence, except it uses a different way of performing the compression, as I've stated before.

There is no evidence. It cannot be explained.
We went through this before and you were stumped to explain.
You ignoring the evidence (just like you ignoring the rest of my post) doesn't mean it isn't there.
We have been over this before, and plenty of others. I was easily able to explain, and you repeatedly failed with your explanations severely lacking or just entirely absent, then because you can't explain you just resort to outright lies claiming that you have and claiming that others can't.

I told you what force was on the rocket. You chose to ignore it and pretend you weren't told.
You'll continue to ignore it no matter what, because that's what you people do.

The diagrams are there so take some time to understand them if you're genuine.
No, you repeatedly avoided saying what force was acting on the rocket, likely because you know that it refutes you.
Yes, your diagrams are there, which do not explain it at all.
As well as that, we have our diagrams, which do actually explain it.

A helicopter shows you the simple way a rocket works by using atmosphere.
No, a helicopter works using vastly different principles.
It works by redirecting air, moving it from above to below, generating lift a the air passes over the wing and is deflected downwards.
The force acts on the blade to push the helicopter up.
No ridiculous gas on gas fight.

The reason it needs the atmosphere is because it is using that atmosphere and changing its momentum.

A rocket doesn't need that because it has its own gas which it expels.

If you did, do you recall no change in measured weight because the blades pushed the atmosphere down to create  a much larger compression of the atmosphere under that helicopter, meaning it could push into the atmosphere above by resting on this compressed air?
What the air does after it has left the helicopter is irrelevant.
The air is pushed down by the helicopter. The only thing to then change its momentum is the truck.

Again, this brings us back to the ball and skateboard example.
The person on the skateboard moves as the ball is thrown. The ball doesn't need to hit the wall to have the person move.

Yes, it is pretty simple to grasp, yet you keep either failing to grasp it or intentionally not grasping it.
Probably because grasping it would mean accepting that rockets work in a vacuum.

Now again, care to address the issues you have repeatedly avoided?
What force is pushing the rocket? Where is the arrow of force in your diagram?
What force is accelerating the gas? What is it pushing against?
You are yet to address either of these issues.
Yet our side has easily explained it.

So what would any sane person take?
We have your option of pure nonsense with no attempt at an explanation and instead continued avoidance and lies; vs conventional physics which easily explains it and doesn't rely upon rejecting mountains of evidence.

In reality, they are the same issue as they go hand in hand.
The only object that the gas can push off to accelerate out of the rocket/tube is the rocket/tube.
Everything else is in the opposite direction and would cause it to accelerate into the rocket.
This means the gas MUST be pushing off the rocket/tube and thus must be pushing the rocket/tube.
Of course, you wont admit that because it means the same applies in a vacuum, with the gas accelerating out and accelerating the rocket.
But I don't care.

Either admit it or clearly explain an alternative.
Clearly explain what the gas is pushing off to accelerate out of the rocket/tube (including in a vacuum), including providing a diagram showing the action-reaction pair.
Clearly explain what force acts on the rocket to accelerate it, including providing a diagram showing the force acting on the rocket.

The rotors provide a force on the air equal and opposite to the lift force.  This in turn provides an equal and opposite force on the floor of the truck. 

Just as rocket propellant provides an equal and opposite force on the rocket.

It gets the force when it throws mass out the back. 

I know this because I studied it.  I’ve derived the basic fluid flow equations (although that was a while ago, not sure I could do it now).  I’ve used the equations to design, build and test gas systems and vacuum systems.  Just like millions of other physicists and engineers have done to create the technology that you use to deny basic science.

You haven’t studied this.  You haven’t tested your ideas.  You haven’t even bothered to learn how the rest of the world understands it, which should be the absolute first step before claiming they are wrong.

You just dream it up and spout your fantasy version on the internet.  That’s fine.  Believe what you want.

Newton's 3 laws have been proven to work just fine over and over again for hundreds of years.  It's your "pressure on pressure" that has yet to be proven.
Newtons so called laws have not been proven to work at all in terms of what really happens.
They simply state so called inertia or f=ma but not what causes it.

This is the issue and if it's not explained then it's a nonsense, just like space rockets are a nonsense.
Who cares what causes inertia?  I don't need to know what causes an internal combustion engine to work in order to drive a car.  Newton's laws describe motion well enough so that engineers can build all sorts of things, including rockets that work in a vacuum.

It is very simple if you understand it's all happening externally, meaning your rocket does not get its uplift force from inside it.
Again, HOW?
How does somethign external to the rocket magically accelerate the gas inside the rocket? How does that then magically accelerate the rocket, with no connection to the rocket?

Trying to have it all happen externally to cling to fantasy of requiring an atmosphere, all so you can dismiss the reality of rockets working in space and having plenty of pictures of the clearly round Earth, all so you can cling to your FE fantasy is not simple at all.

It requires so much convoluted nonsense and self-contradictions it isn't funny.

What is simple is reality. You have the gas inside the rocket. This is accelerated to a very high speed. This requires a force and a reactionary force which can only apply to the rocket, which means the rocket will accelerate, even without the atmosphere.
i.e. rockets work in space
This is very simple.

If you wish to disagree, then stop with the pathetic BS and actually start explaining.
Address the issues that have been plaguing your side since before you joined this thread.
Tell us what is accelerating the gas?
What force is acting on it? Where is it coming from? What is the gas pushing against in order to accelerate to leave the rocket at such a high velocity?

And then tell us what force is acting on the rocket to accelerate it? Were is it coming from? What is it actually pushing against?

Again, the only sane option is that the gas is pushing on the rocket and the rocket is pushing on the gas.
This is because the only available thing for the gas to push on IS THE ROCKET!
Everything else is in the wrong direction.
Likewise the only thing that is touching the rocket from the right direction is the gas.

There is no other option.

That is why you have repeatedly failed or outright avoided even attempting to provide an explanation; because the only possibly explanations require the gas to push against the rocket, meaning rockets work in a vacuum.

Now like I said, stop with all the BS and address this very simple issue.

How does somethign external to the rocket magically accelerate the gas inside the rocket?
It allows the gas to expand into the much less resistant external atmosphere until that expanding rocket gas compresses that weaker atmosphere to now react in equal terms to that expansion.
From this point on the expanded gas moves the rocket because the compressive force back from atmosphere creates a consistent barrier against that thrust/expansion/burn.

Bring up each supposed law and let's go through it. You'll soon understand the so called laws are not laws at all, because they do not exist as a reality in terms of explanation of what is happening.
That has been done, and then you fled, because you know you cannot rationally refute these laws of motion.

But why bother, regardless of if you accept them or reject them, you end up with rockets working in space.
You have accepted the key point regardless. In order for an object to accelerate it needs something to use as leverage, i.e. something to push off, which it pushes.

That is effectively the key law of motion explaining how rockets work.
That is what you have been repeatedly avoiding because it destroys your fantasy of rockets not working in space.

There is but it's overlooked
No, there isn't, as there is clearly no arrow on the rocket at all.

You just need to repeatedly lie and say there is because if you admit the truth, that will mean admitting you have no explanation for how rockets work, other than the mainstream one of the gas pushing on the rocket.

If you wish to disagree, clearly highlight a single arrow which you claim is acting on the rocket to provide a force to move it forwards.

If you can't do that then it is quite clear that you are lying.

It allows the gas to expand
Allowing something to happen is not providing a force.
Try again.
You need to tell us what magical object external to the rocket is somehow accelerating the gas TOWARDS it.

We have been over this repeatedly, with you repeatedly failing to address the actual issue and instead doing whatever you can to avoid it.

By having the rocket simply sit on top of the gas on gas fight,a s explained aplenty in this topic and also the above quote.
No, as pointed out plenty of times, THIS EXPLAINS NOTHING!
Tell us what is actually providing the force on the rocket.
Is it the atmosphere pushing it up? Or is it the gas leaving the rocket which is?
Where is this force being applied? To the nose cone of the rocket? Inside the bell of the rocket nozzle? Along the side of the rocket? Where?

I'm giving you a reality
Your complete inability to provide an explanation which actually addresses the issues shows you are clearly not giving us reality.
You are the one adhering to fantasy here.

Like I said, if you wish to refute that, you need to provide an actual explanation for the issues raised, rather than repeatedly avoiding them or just lying and saying you have.

There's no self contradictions, at all.
You merely saying it means nothing.
Good thing I'm not just merely saying it and instead have provided examples of these contradictions repeatedly.

For example, in this thread, you can't even make up your mind if something needs to push against something else to move or not, or if something can push against itself to move. Nor can you decide if an atmosphere is required for motion.
You repeatedly switch back and forth. You claim that an atmosphere is needed for motion and that you need to have something external to push against to try and dismiss the reality of rockets working in space, yet go and directly contradict that by claiming the gas can magically accelerate out of the rocket by pushing on nothing or just by pushing on itself.

As pointed out plenty of times with my example, in order to be consistent (i.e. not contradict yourself), either the rocket works in space because both the gas and the rocket can accelerate in opposite directions (for one of several reasons depending upon which choice you make), or neither can move and the gas will remain magically trapped inside an open container exposed to the vacuum.

If you have one being able to move but not the other then you have a direct contradiction.

And that is ignoring all the other contradictions raised by your nonsense which are irrelevant to this thread.

You merely lying and saying there are no contradictions means nothing except you have no integrity and no interest for the truth.

Again, if you wish to disagree and instead claim there are no contradictions then you have to very clearly and specifically address this issue, telling us what the gas is pushing against which allows it to move which doesn't work equally well for the rocket.
You are yet to even attempt that, likely because you know you can't.
Until you do, all you have is a pile of self-contradictory garbage.


I'll make this simple for you.
Give me a perfect analogy of what would be happening in your space with a container of compressed gas and losing the entire lid from one end.
There is no perfect analogy, and why bother with pathetic analogies when there are much better explanations?

I have already given a very clear explanation which you were unable to find a single fault with.
If you don't like it, go back and deal with it.

Over to you.
How about over to you?
You have repeatedly had it explained to you.
You then just completely ignore these explanations or just dismiss them out of hand.

All you are doing is trying to get out of explaining it yourself. This is because you know you cannot explain it without having rockets work in space.
Now quit with the pathetic BS.
Quit with the pathetic distractions.

Either provide an explanation to these issues that have been plaguing your side since before you joined this thread or admit that rockets do work in space, or just leave.

Once you do this I'll be happy to amend it.
Cut the BS.
You have been provided plenty of diagrams. Your idea of "amending" it, is to completely strip out all the forces acting on the rocket and make it completely unbalanced with no reactionary forces.

You already have plenty of diagrams to work with.
Why not try to correctly amend one of them.
Make sure you have a force on the rocket if you are trying to show how the rocket works in the atmosphere.
Regardless, make sure you have action-reaction pairs. This means you can't just have an arrow sitting by itself pushing in one direction with no reactionary force.

Seriously, but that wasn't a very good example. These might give a better view of the steps taken to deflect the exhaust:
Quote from: Michel Mephit
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/vr5823ogq4kygs4/LC39A%20Flame%20Trench%20-%2028%20April%202011.jpg?dl=1)
LC39A Flame Trench - 28 April 2011 (https://www.youtube.com/embed/dTAjGiZvI9k)
The day before the first launch attempt of Endeavour on STS-134, I and a coworker went out to LC39A to document the placement of pressure, heat, and temperature sensors on the SRB side of the main flame deflector inside the flame trench.  This video gives an idea of what conditions are one day before a shuttle launch.  The dripping water that you hear is from the water deluge system which is filled and primed to douse the launch pad at liftoff for sound suppression and heat mitigation.

And here is a Shuttle launch showing where the exhaust stream is deflected too:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/29kkkvo50nlzs6u/STS-134%20-%20The%20final%20launch%20of%20Endeavour%20-%20Full%20Launch%20in%20HD.jpg?dl=1)
STS-134 - The final launch of Endeavour - Full Launch in HD at 10:01 (https://www.youtube.com/embed/ShRa2RG2KDI)
That's no example, either.
Open you eyes! The exhaust stream is deflected to either side to minimise the blast reflected back on the rocket.

But what does it matter? Once the rocket has lifted to a few hundred metres nothing from the ground can affect it.

This is especially true when you realise that the exhaust velocity of those rockets around 2500 m/s and far above the velocity of sound.
And the velocity of sound is the velocity that any disturbance to the exhaust stream would propagate back to the rocket.
So, your claims are totally impossible with rockets like that!

Seriously, you need to take an introductory lab physics course.  Newton's laws are pretty much the first thing that they cover and have you perform experiments to verify for yourself.
Ok then, show me an experiment to confirm Newton's supposed first law.
Explain it.
An object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an external force.  What part of that is so hard to understand?  If you want an example, just get into your car, accelerate to about 5 mph and then slam on your brakes.  That sudden lurch forward is your body wanting to stay in motion while the car wants to stop.

However, the next one is the clincher.
An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
It clearly will not stay in motion then, because there's always an external force acting upon the object.


The only way you can argue this is to use the fiction of a vacuum of so called space to say something will move forever once in motion or stay perfectly still forever if left in space.

It becomes a nonsense.

Yes, that's what the law says.  An external force (usually friction) pretty much always acts on an object in motion.  However, there are ways of reducing friction and keeping the motion relatively constant.  A car sliding on ice is a good example.

The only way you can argue this is to use the fiction of a vacuum of so called space to say something will move forever once in motion or stay perfectly still forever if left in space.
Or, you could learn the delicate art of abstraction which allows you to break events down into simpler terms.  Yes, friction always exists in the real world.  No one is saying anything different.  However, it's often preferred to think of an imaginary idealized environment doesn't exist so you can get a clearer idea of a concept.  Once you grasp the concept (in this case, the notion that an object in motion will stay in motion), then you can bring the problem into the real world and add various external forces (friction, inclines, etc.) to get a better understanding of how an object moves.

It becomes a nonsense.
This is why the law is not a law at all. It's made up nonsense.
No, it isn't nonsense.  It's simply a starting point, not a final destination.  After all, you have to learn to stand on your feet before you can run.

I think sceptis weirdo mind has issue with the fact you can never proove the base claim by removing all forces because there is always a force somewhere that needs to be taken into consideration.

Basically saying there is no such thing as absolute zero temp because as soon as you try to measure it, you would introduce a heat source and void it.

Same as his "vauum doesnt exist" arguemtn because there is always somethi mng, like the exhaust gas of a rocket, space dust, or etc.

But again, its a non argument.

The problem is, it's not showing a reality and cannot show a reality.
No, it does show a key part of reality.

Yes, there is almost always some external force, but that doesn't change the fact of what happens without it, and the impact of the force.

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
It clearly will not stay in motion then, because there's always an external force acting upon the object.
No, it is actually that it continues with its motion. An external force will change the motion, which can be to stop it (in some reference frame) or it could be to speed it up, or just change the direction.

The only way you can argue this is to use the fiction of a vacuum of so called space to say something will move forever once in motion or stay perfectly still forever if left in space.
Or, as was originally done, we can look how the different forces impact motion, and extrapolate back to no force.
We can see how applying a force in the direction opposite motion slows it down. We can see how applying it for a longer amount of time or a larger force will slow it down more.

You can also apply a force to negate an external force to see what happens when the net force is 0.

So no, it very much describes reality.

But lets consider what if this law was fiction.
Well that would mean objects at rest could magically spring into motion with no application of force, and objects could just magically stop for no reason.

It would mean rockets could be fine in space, as without the first law there is no requirement for a force for them to move.

No. That sudden lurch forwards is the atmospheric slosh effect.
While pure nonsense, that just pushes the problem back. Why does the atmosphere slosh?
Is it because it is an object in motion and will continue that motion?
Sure sounds like you are just using it for the atmosphere so you can pretend it doesn't work for other objects.

But we can see what effect that has by looking at a helium balloon.
The atmosphere sloshing forwards causes the balloon to be pushed backwards.

But the best way to show it is nonsense is to not be in a car. Instead be on a bike. The same thing happens.
In fact, if you do it bad enough, you go flying off the bike due to your momentum.

But of course, all of this is just another pathetic distraction from your complete inability to address the issues which clearly show your claims to be nonsense, which clearly show rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

Again, TELL US HOW THE GAS ACCELERATES!
What is it pushing on (noting that means it is pushing that object)?
Again, the only thing which it can push on is the rocket. Everything else is on the wrong side.

Likewise, tell us how the rocket accelerates.
What is pushing on it? We know it can't be the atmosphere as it is on the wrong side or the rocket is protected from it by the gas coming out of the rocket engine. The only option is the gas.

But if the rocket is pushing the gas out of the rocket and the gas pushes the rocket, that means that there is no need for the atmosphere and the rocket will work in a vacuum.

It's not about nailing it to the floor. It's about contraction and expansion. It's always under external force, is what I'm saying, which means it's never at rest in reality....only to the naked, immediate eye view..

Picture a tube of water in freezing conditions where, as soon as the water is released from the tube, it freezes.
So, inside the tube the water is protected from external atmospheric interference.
Once allowed to flow, atmospheric interference immediately hits the flow and freezes is. Do you agree?

I'll take it you do, because you can't dent it.

Ok, now imagine that water consistently flowing into these conditions.
What will happen?

Seatbelts, not worthy. Airbags, unneeded. What we need are baffles in cars to stop the 'atmospheric slosh effect'. You manufacture so much anti-logic/science, it's hard to keep up:

- Pressure gauges don't measure pressure when pressure is released even though the fundamental design of a pressure gauge the world over measures pressure only when pressure is pressing on the gauge. Check
- Your explanations and diagram only show how a rocket would never move, an atmosphere or not being present. Check
- Now, your made up atmospheric slosh effect. Triple check.

What's next? A carbonite sun shining through a crystal at the north pole melting a constantly re-freezing dome, all of which have never been discovered, witnessed, documented, whatever.

And if that's the case then it makes the law a nothing.
Do you understand what a law is in the scientific context?
A mathematical relationship.
All that law is stating is that if F=0, then vt=v0.

The best way to understand it is to sit in a bath and swish the water away from you.
What happens?
The momentum of the water keeps it moving.
Can you explain why it keeps moving?
Why should this apply magically to the atmosphere and the water, but not to people or other objects?
Yet again, you have a direct contradiction in your nonsense.


Picture a tube of water
Why do you need to continue to appeal to these pathetic analogies rather than just explaining what is happening?
Quit with the pathetic distractions and actually try to explain.

Once allowed to flow, atmospheric interference
We are dealing with something happening in a vacuum. What atmospheric interference is there?
NONE!
You are appealing to a fantasy with no connection to reality.

It also has absolutely no connection to rockets. With rockets, the gas doesn't just freeze and stop dead when it leaves, instead it leaves the rocket at a very high velocity and continues moving until it is well away from the rocket.

Again, quit with the distractions.

Answer the extremely simple questions you have been asked.
Tell us what is accelerating the gas.
Even in your pathetic analogy you just have the being "allowed to flow", with nothing to actually make it move.

Without something to accelerate the gas, the gas should remain sitting inside the rocket.

So again, tell us what accelerates the gas.

Then once you have figured that out, tell us what accelerates the rocket.

Until you can actually address these issues you have literally nothing to defend your garbage as these issues destroy your garbage and clearly show that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

Of course I can and I will.
WHEN?
You said you would ages ago, but all you seem to want to do is try and deflect.
You have had ample opportunity to provide such a diagram and you have repeatedly failed to provide one with any hope of working due to no force on the rocket and loads of forces existing with no reaction force, or just deflected, saying that you will provide it later or coming up with some other BS.

Stop deflecting and actual deal with the issues addressed.

First of all I'd like you to draw your diagram of how your rocket works by making it perfectly clear as to what is happening.
This has been provided for you countless times.
Stop with the pathetic distractions and draw your diagram to explain how the gas accelerates including clearly identify the force acting on the gas and the reactionary force, and then what force acts on the rocket.

So far in this thread we have had people who accept reality being able to clearly explain how rockets work in a vacuum, completely with diagrams clearly showing how, vs you and your friends who have been completely unable to address extremely simple issues or provide a simple diagram.

Picture a tube of water in freezing conditions
If it's in "freezing conditions" why hasn't it already frozen?

Quote from: sceptimatic
where, as soon as the water is released from the tube, it freezes.
So, inside the tube the water is protected from external atmospheric interference.
But "external atmospheric interference" has virtually no effect on the freezing point of water.
So who cares if it is or is not "protected from external atmospheric interference"?

Quote from: sceptimatic
Once allowed to flow, atmospheric interference immediately hits the flow and freezes is. Do you agree?
No! it would have already frozen and would not flow!

Is it that idfficult to show a force transfer through the grren bar?
You keep insisting the rocket rides the green bar.
So draw some arrows showing the bar pushes on the rocket.

Or

Post by: markjo on January 16, 2020, 07:00:28 AM

So you're saying that your kitchen table is not at rest?  How do you keep it from moving around the room?  Did you need to nail it to the floor?
It's not about nailing it to the floor. It's about contraction and expansion. It's always under external force, is what I'm saying, which means it's never at rest in reality....only to the naked, immediate eye view..
Contraction and expansion aren't considered motion in the classical mechanics sense.  Motion is moving from point A to point B.


Quote from: markjo

However, the next one is the clincher.
An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
It clearly will not stay in motion then, because there's always an external force acting upon the object.
Yes, that's what the law says.  An external force (usually friction) pretty much always acts on an object in motion.  However, there are ways of reducing friction and keeping the motion relatively constant.  A car sliding on ice is a good example.
It's not a case of ways to reduce friction. It's about having to totally rid the object of any friction. Any external force.
It cannot be done, so admit that.
And if that's the case then it makes the law a nothing. It's a fiction.
There's simply no reality about what is said.
By all means argue it but it's hard to deny.
No one, not even Newton, is denying that external forces exist and can't be completely removed.  That's why he put in the "unless acted upon by an external force" bit in his first law.  I don't know why you think that external forces invalidate the first law.


Quote from: markjo

The only way you can argue this is to use the fiction of a vacuum of so called space to say something will move forever once in motion or stay perfectly still forever if left in space.
Or, you could learn the delicate art of abstraction which allows you to break events down into simpler terms.  Yes, friction always exists in the real world.  No one is saying anything different.  However, it's often preferred to think of an imaginary idealized environment doesn't exist so you can get a clearer idea of a concept.  Once you grasp the concept (in this case, the notion that an object in motion will stay in motion), then you can bring the problem into the real world and add various external forces (friction, inclines, etc.) to get a better understanding of how an object moves.
No....no....no.
Either it is something or it's not, in terms of reality.

If you want to say the laws are imaginary and would work in that imaginary scenario then I'll happily go along with that.
If you want the scenario to be a real life law then it has to have real life implications.
These so called laws do not in terms of explanations as to showing a bonafide reality..
Reality can get complicated, so sometimes it's easier to use a simplified imaginary scenario to explain what's going on.  That doesn't mean that the first law doesn't work in real, complex scenarios.


Quote from: markjo

It becomes a nonsense.
This is why the law is not a law at all. It's made up nonsense.
No, it isn't nonsense.  It's simply a starting point, not a final destination.  After all, you have to learn to stand on your feet before you can run.

By all means use sayings but standing on your own two feet before running is something of a reality that can be shown.
What is postured with the so called laws, cannot be shown to be real.
Of course it can.  You're just overthinking things.


Quote from: markjo

Quote from: markjo

If you want an example, just get into your car, accelerate to about 5 mph and then slam on your brakes.  That sudden lurch forward is your body wanting to stay in motion while the car wants to stop.
No. That sudden lurch forwards is the atmospheric slosh effect.
"Atmospheric slosh"? ???  Never heard of such a thing.  How does it work?
The best way to understand it is to sit in a bath and swish the water away from you.
What happens?

Or, this.




The only difference is in pressure build of air and the immediate release of it.
Granted air and water are both fluids and share some similar properties, but air is far less dense than water and can't push nearly as hard as water can.  In fact, Newton's second law can help you figure out how hard water and air can push based on their mass and how fast they're moving.  You should look into that some time.

No, he explained issues with your "analogy" because it has nothing to do with what we are talking about.
Meanwhile, all you seem to be is dodge, because you can see what the end result would be. If you don't dodge, you would be admitting rockets work in a vacuum.

I seem to see all that with you people.
Draw your diagram on how your space rocket works.
Again, you are projecting your own inadequacies onto others. It is the only way for you to cling to your fantasy.
We have provided you with plenty of diagrams, which can actually explain what is being discussed and which you have been unable to find a single issue with.

Meanwhile, you have repeatedly refused to draw a diagram which can actually explain it.
Stop telling us to draw a diagram and draw your own.


Again, stop with the pathetic distractions.
Clearly explain how the gas accelerates from the rocket, including in a vacuum.
This is easiest to do by drawing a diagram showing the forces acting on the gas and the reactionary forces.
Clearly identify what the gas is pushing against.

Then once you have done that, do the same for the rocket (unless doing it for the gas did it for the rocket...).

Again, until you do that, you have literally nothing to back up your fantasy and the rational conclusion remains that rockets work in a vacuum as it has been clearly explained how they do, with you being completely unable to show any problem with it, nor provide an alternative.

How does the freezing temperature of water vary with respect to pressure? (https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/60170/how-does-the-freezing-temperature-of-water-vary-with-respect-to-pressure)
Q:
I know when the pressure is reduced, the boiling temperature of water is reduced as well. But how does the pressure affect the freezing point of water?

In a low-pressure environment, is water's freezing temperature higher or lower than 0oC?

A1:
If you decrease the pressure, the freezing point of water will increase ever so slightly. From 0° C at 1 atm pressure it will increase up to 0.01° C at 0.006 atm. This is the tripple point of water. At pressures below this, water will never be liquid. It will change directly between solid and gas phase (sublimation). The temperature for this phase change, the sublimation point, will decrease as the pressure is further decreased. To learn more details, image google "water phase diagram" and study the pictures.

You can have a look at this pressure/temperature phase diagram of water:

Hi

I already posted this elsewhere but would like your opinion on it

If the moon landing was faked and all world governments, space agencies etc are on board with this lie, Why?  Why are they throwing money at something that if it was announced tomorrow the world is flat nothing would change.  Why throw that money at space agencies when it can be thrown at something else and if we did announce it was flat today the people who are rich and in power, today still would be tomorrow.  99.99999999% of the lives of the world's population would not change if the world is flat compared to a globe, they still go to work get paid, pay bills and taxes, eat food, care for loved ones.  Actually, it probably would as they money going to the 72 yes 72 space agencies around the world, not just NASA can then be diverted to something that would better them like healthcare, lower taxes, better education etc etc.  Why no single world leader hasn't revealed the truth to f**K over another like the Russians screwing over the Americans to prove the landings were faked.  The Russians spent $5.6bn on their space program I'm sure there are better things they could have spent it on whilst screwing the Americans over.  Everyone forgets the Russians were in space first.  Both with a dog that didn't come back and a cosmonaut later that did.

*sigh* 
How many time does it need to be explained before you get it?  Seriously, is there a number?  Are we getting close?  Well, let's increment that counter by one.

Do you know how when you put a book on a table and the book doesn't move if you leave it alone?  That's because inertia says that objects at rest stays at rest unless you do something to move it.

Do you know how when you roll a ball down the sidewalk and it keeps going after you let it go?  That's because inertia says that objects in motion stay in motion unless something happens to make it slow down or stop.

I don't know how to explain it any more simply than that.


Remember it has to have a reason for being a name in reality.
Huh? ???  What do you mean?  What do names have to do with reality?  Inertia is a certain innate property of matter that was identified and they had to name it something.  It's like asking why they named a certain color green.

How many time does it need to be explained before you get it?  Seriously, is there a number?  Are we getting close?  Well, let's increment that counter by one.

Do you know how when you put a book on a table and the book doesn't move if you leave it alone?  That's because inertia says that objects at rest stays at rest unless you do something to move it.
So, inertia is anything that is still until something moves it?
You know something is always moving any object by expansion and contraction, right?
It's fine for you to argue that it's not really moving but, if you want to be honest, it's not true.
Just because something isn't moving to the naked eye, does not mean it's still.

So, in this case, inertia means nothing. the word can be erased because it's worthless as a reality.

Quote from: markjo
Do you know how when you roll a ball down the sidewalk and it keeps going after you let it go?  That's because inertia says that objects in motion stay in motion unless something happens to make it slow down or stop.
Something will never stay in motion, because something will always be acting upon it, so that explanation is also void.
You see, what's being said is, an object will simply go on forever at the same rate of energy applied to it. Then the key reality kicks in to say, " unless it's acted upon by an external force."

An object will always be acted upon by an external/unbalanced force. Always.
The saying is meaningless and so is the word, inertia, unless it pertains to a reality.

Once you provide me with a diagram showing exactly how your rocket works.
Show exactly what's happening and why it happens.

Once you do this I'll certainly expand (pardon the pun) on my diagram to show what really happens.
Again, stop lying and stop stalling.
You have been provided with plenty of diagrams, and have failed to provide any diagram to show what really happens. Every diagram you have provided has lacked a force acting on the rocket and thus is incapable of explaining how the rocket moves. They also lack action-reaction pairs and thus failed to address what the gas is pushing off/using as leverage and instead just had it magically obtain a force from nowhere.
Now provide your own or otherwise actually address the issues.

Tell us what the gas is pushing in in order to accelerate and leave the rocket.
No more pathetic distractions. Just answer the extremely simple question.

No, inertia is a measure of how difficult it is to change an object's velocity.

We call the rate of change of velocity acceleration so inertia is a measure of how difficult it is to accelerate an object.

If the change in an object's velocity is in a straight line we call the acceleration linear.
In this case of linear acceleration the inertia of object is simply it's called it's mass and that is the quantitative definition of mass.

I do have a question for sceptimatic. Can you explain how rockets from a firework works? The thrust these rockets provide are not able to press the atmosphere yet they will go into the air at a pretty high altitude. So how can these rockets fly?
They are able to expand into the atmosphere, just like any rocket or missile under a burning thrust.

Skepti go and place bowling ball on the ground (relatively unmoving and still).
Place a volley ball beside it (they are roughly the same volume as defined in the conventional sense).
Give each a kick as hard as you can.

That exploding fire doesn't rely on air to push the rocket body.  It relies on the tons of exploding rocket fuel for this force.

In order for combustion to occur, there must be oxygen. A fiery explosion is oxygen burning. The difference in air pressure is what would cause perpendicular momentum in a foreign object. Without air, there cannot be combustion or a difference in air pressure.

How does a flat Earth digress into rockets supposedly not being able to work in space, anyway? Rockets clearly do work in space, and that has no bearing whatsoever on the shape of the Earth. It's a completely separate matter.

Because if rockets are not real, there is no proof for a globular earth or even space and therefore gravity, on which all the physical sciences are based upon.

You mean 1 atmosphere which is sea level air pressure. If you are saying there is less air pressure the farther up you travel then air pressure will decrease steadily until you leave the atmosphere in which there is no air pressure so no possibility of thrust.

The guy with the medicine ball is just jerking his body a bit - the ball is not in effect at all.

What you are seeing is the counter motion on an axis (his shoulder) of a dense object moving from being close to his chest to being moved to away from his chest then released. The release does not generate thrust, but the movement of the dense object at speed via his arm muscles, repositioned the center of his body & trolley slightly, causing it to move a few inches backwards.

Edit: I said 'mass' at first, instead of a 'dense object', but I just remembered that 'mass' is a meaningless term that relies on gravity for explanation which is as far as I'm concerned, an unproven quantity. The actual term I should have used is 'weight'.

The oxygen in more than just compressed. It is liquefied into a liquid with a density a little greater than that of water at room temperature.

What does that mean? Rockets do not needto generate thrust from any difference in air pressure.

I assume that you haven't bothered to read the numerous posts showing that most of a rocket's thrust is generated internally by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.

A typical rocket engine like the SpaceX Merlin 1D  burns about 329 kg per sec of propellant and accelerate it to about  2570 m/s.
A huge force is needed to accelerate that mass and that force is the thrust of the rocket.

You use the word "resistance" but that can describe "inertia" or "friction".

But the effects of "inertia" and "friction" are very different.
A force against friction results in the conversion of one form of energy into heat energy and is wasted.
A force against inertial results in the conversion of one form of energy into kinetic energy which can be recovered.
A common example of this is the kinetic energy stored in a rotating flywheel.

- Gas being released out of the open end is pushing on the closed end as well, opposite.
- Vessel moves

In your world/diagram, the vessel never moves.
In a closed vessel the gas is pushing on all sides of the container and on the molecules themselves.

Once the container is opened at one end, the gas molecules at the very front of the opening expand out against whatever pressure resistance opposes them, externally and as they expand, every molecule inside that container expands....but not in the same way. It's a gradual expansion all the way to the back of the container.

This is why I advised you to pay attention to the sponge ball in the container analogy I gave. It would've helped you massively in understanding.

The very back of the container is the least speed of expansion because all the way down that container is a resistance to that expansion of each set of molecules of gas.

A gauge at this end can only follow that same principle, meaning the spring will decompress against the back of the gas just as each molecule of gas is doing to each molecule of gas all the way to the opening.

The gauge still reads a pressure drop but the actual gauge itself does not have any positive force upon it but it does have a positive resistance to the decompressing spring.

If you look at this in terms of how you people say rockets work, you can clearly see there is no positive push upon gas release from the opposite end.

If you have to read this 100 times to grasp it, then do so. It might help you.
I doubt you want to but I implore anyone to try to understand it and you'll soon see why we're being duped with rocket propulsion.

What does that mean? Rockets do not needto generate thrust from any difference in air pressure.

I assume that you haven't bothered to read the numerous posts showing that most of a rocket's thrust is generated internally by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.

A huge force is needed to accelerate that mass and that force is the thrust of the rocket.
"...accelerate the burn propellent." is not a meaningful or logical sentence. Why would you want to apply a motion to the fuel itself?

Yes, a difference in air pressure must be present to initiate movement within an object in the context of aeronautical flight.

That is how they are propelled. By generating a cushion of high air pressure that must be replaced by low air pressure which moves into the place of the high pressure area, pushing the body of the aircraft in the opposite direction of space where low pressure air is replacing the high pressure air.

"The thrust of the rocket" also lacks any required qualifier to form a identifiable statement. Perhaps you meant 'the thrust generated by the force of the engine upon the overall body of the rocket.'

But you have failed to separate the force from the vehicle itself. Which is a fairly fundamental misunderstanding of the most basic principles of physics.

Having said all that. It's not like I fully understand it all. I rather get the feeling even my logic has lead me down the garden path a bit.

But according to thermodynamics, you cannot propel an object in space without air pressure. By propellers, jet engines or rockets.

Energy to mass transference against resistance of external matter.
You use the word "resistance" but that can describe "inertia" or "friction".
Ok then, let's call it resistance.
But remember, to do that you cannot have the saying " an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by a resistive force" as a reality, because every object will be acted upon with resistance in motion.

It needs to be changed to, " all objects will be acted upon by a resistive force."
As simple as that.

If you want to call that, interia, then carry on.

Quote from: rabinoz
But the effects of "inertia" and "friction" are very different.
A force against friction results in the conversion of one form of energy into heat energy and is wasted.
Resistance is friction. Vibration is friction. If you call resistance inertia then you call friction the same.
Also energy is never wasted. Energy is given and taken in equal measures.

Quote from: rabinoz
A force against inertial results in the conversion of one form of energy into kinetic energy which can be recovered.
Of course it can be recovered but like above, what you put in you get out. It's just how energy is applied.
First of all you have to use energy to store energy to then reap the exact amount of energy back when required.
You do not get out more than you put in.....ever. All you can do is to reap all or close to all of the energy you put in, back.

See this Swedish paper Flywheel Energy Storage for Automotive Applications by Magnus Hedlund et al (https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1073/8/10/10636/pdf).
Same thing applies.
Energy is required to set the flywheel in motion and once in motion you reap the energy back what you put in. It's another way of storing the energy you put in, which is now potential energy build up.

The gauge still reads a pressure drop but the actual gauge itself does not have any positive force upon it but it does have a positive resistance to the decompressing spring...

If you have to read this 100 times to grasp it, then do so. It might help you.

If the gauge had no force upon it, it would read zero.

What does that mean? Rockets do not needto generate thrust from any difference in air pressure.

I assume that you haven't bothered to read the numerous posts showing that most of a rocket's thrust is generated internally by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.

A huge force is needed to accelerate that mass and that force is the thrust of the rocket.
"...accelerate the burn propellent." is not a meaningful or logical sentence. Why would you want to apply a motion to the fuel itself?

Yes, a difference in air pressure must be present to initiate movement within a heavy object in the context of aeronautical flight.

That is how they are propelled. By generating a cushion of high air pressure that must be replaced by low air pressure which moves into the place of the high pressure area, pushing the body of the aircraft in the opposite direction of space where low pressure air is replacing the high pressure air.

"The thrust of the rocket" also lacks any required qualifier to form a identifiable statement. Perhaps you meant 'the thrust generated by the force of the engine upon the overall body of the rocket.'

But you have failed to separate the force from the vehicle itself. Which is a fairly fundamental misunderstanding of the most basic principles of physics.

Having said all that. It's not like I fully understand it all. I rather get the feeling even my logic has lead me down the garden path a bit.

But according to thermodynamics, you cannot propel an object in space without air pressure. By propellers, jet engines or rockets.
And this is the ultimate crux of it all.

Read what I said.

The only time the gauge would read immediate zero is if all the gas molecules over atmosphere resistant pressure were instantly removed.
This is not the case, so the spring rides on the back of the gas molecules towards the front where there is an opening.
It can only rest on the back of the molecules and follow them out as they slowly expand behind those in front and those in front and those in front.

Take some time to engage in what I'm telling you. Your own inability to grasp it is borne from your own fear of going against your mainstream peer pressured views.

How is this simple notion lost on you? If there is no resistance there is no measurement. But there is a measurement. There is resistance. There is pressure. It's so bloody simple. It's not even rocket science.

Gas being released out of the open end is pushing on the closed end as well, opposite

You seem to think that gas is pushing upon the inside of the vessel at the front end of the craft. Think about this. This would only generate tension within the fuselage walls,  pushing the container from the exit point to the front end, resulting in the vessel tearing apart.

Because if force was being applied to the nose cone of the interior of the rocket, then the walls would have to withstand increased tension from the forces of the gas as they moved to the exit point which would require a very durable material. Far more durable than the flimsy construction that are supposed to be being used.

But that is not the science as it is currently understood. Because it would require all the gas to be acting upon itself as a collective unit. Current science states that the only force in play in a rocket based scenario is from air friction on the exterior of the cone and thrust, generated by the expulsion of fuel at the point of exit. Not from within the pool of fuel itself.

So the tension is being sent up the sides from the rocket nozzles or specifically the point at which the nozzles connect to the fuel container being the main point of tension.

Thermodynamics is about heat replacing cold things and visa versa. So when something is heated, it will generally expel that heat, or energy, which is then replaced by cold matter.

So thrust is generated as cold air replaces hot air, filling the high pressure generated by the heated air with low pressure air. As the air rushes to replace the high pressure, hot air, it buffets the vessel along.

That's my best attempt at an explanation.

"It is a common misconception that rockets are unable to accelerate in space. The fact is that rockets do accelerate. There is indeed nothing for rockets to push off of in space - at least nothing which is external to the rocket. But that's no problem for rockets. Rockets are able to accelerate due to the fact that they burn fuel and push the exhaust gases in a direction opposite the direction which they wish to accelerate."
https://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/newtlaws/Lesson-4/Newton-s-Third-Law
Answer D

This is the official explanation of how rockets can move in space.

"...they burn fuel and push the exhaust gases in a direction..."

This is not an explanation. If air is required for movement or flight on earth, it has not been explained here as to why it is no longer required in space.

In all other explanations of aerodynamic flight, a difference in air pressure results in propulsion. But in space, this condition is no longer required. But it is not explained as to why this is.

My conclusion to Newton's Laws of Motion is that they are divisive and deliberately opaque. That is, he could not have believed them himself. They simply defy understanding or explanation.

It's the emperor's new clothes.

I'm going to find some numbers that don't add up. This could take some time. In the meantime, maybe you could explain why air is not needed for propulsion in space which is what I think everyone is trying to understand.

In order for combustion to occur, there must be oxygen.
You mean like that provided by the tank often full of liquid oxygen?

The difference in air pressure is what would cause perpendicular momentum in a foreign object. Without air, there cannot be combustion or a difference in air pressure.
You mean like the large difference in pressure between the engine of the rocket and the vacuum of space?

You don't need air in the sense of an atmosphere. You need gas in the sense of the rocket fuel and oxidant.

An oxidant (or oxidizing agent) is something which creates oxygen, which is present in air.
No, an oxidant is something which causes oxidation to occur. This is a chemical process where electron are lost from one species (the species being oxidised) and gained by another species (the species being reduced, the oxidising agent).

Oxygen is a common oxidant, which makes no sense under your definition, as it is oxygen, it doesn't create it.
An even more fun one is fluorine, which is a more powerful oxidant that oxygen.

Because if rockets are not real, there is no proof for a globular earth or even space and therefore gravity, on which all the physical sciences are based upon.
Wrong, and all counts.
Even without rockets, there is still plenty of proof for a round Earth. Earth was known to be round thousands of years ago.
The massive distance between objects would demand some kind of space between them, and the fact that objects (like the moon) can stay in orbit for so long, necessitates no significant friction.
Gravity was proven on Earth, long before rockets existed.
And plenty of science doesn't care about the shape of Earth, space or gravity.

For example, what part of that is required to know how things burn?

You mean 1 atmosphere which is sea level air pressure. If you are saying there is less air pressure the farther up you travel then air pressure will decrease steadily until you leave the atmosphere in which there is no air pressure so no possibility of thrust.
You have already admitted a gradient is required. i.e. a difference in pressure.
If you have a pressure greater than 1 atm, then the higher up you go, the more thrust you get.

The guy with the medicine ball is just jerking his body a bit - the ball is not in effect at all.
No, the ball is crucial, without it, he won't move much at all.
You can even try this yourself. Try it with no ball, then with balls of various weight.
Then try it with those same balls, but keeping a hold of them.

What you are seeing is the counter motion on an axis (his shoulder) of a dense object moving from being close to his chest to being moved to away from his chest then released. The release does not generate thrust, but the movement of the dense object at speed via his arm muscles, repositioned the center of his body & trolley slightly, causing it to move a few inches backwards.
Yes, it is the acceleration of that object which requires a force and thus an equal and opposite force.
The release itself doesn't cause it.
However, if it wasn't released then it would require another acceleration to stop it moving, which stops the motion.

I just remembered that 'mass' is a meaningless term that relies on gravity for explanation which is as far as I'm concerned, an unproven quantity. The actual term I should have used is 'weight'.
No, you have it the wrong way around.
Weight is the force acting on a mass due to the very real phenomenon of gravity.
Mass does not rely upon gravity at all.

"...accelerate the burn propellent." is not a meaningful or logical sentence. Why would you want to apply a motion to the fuel itself?
No, it is quite logical and meaningful, at least the version without your typos.
It is accelerated for the same reason airplanes accelerate the air. Doing so requires a force and demands a reactionary force which is used to accelerate the rocket.

Your ideas about it sitting on a cusion of air have been refuted countless times in this thread.
Perhaps you can meet the challenge where all your budies failed.

Tell us what force acts on the gas to accelerate it so it can leave the rocket.
Then also tell us what the reactionary force to this is.

Then see if you can tell us what accelerates the rocket, specifically what is providing the force to the rocket.

Think about this. This would only generate tension within the fuselage walls,  pushing the container from the exit point to the front end, resulting in the vessel tearing apart.
How?
It is open at one end. That means the gas isn't pushing on that section of the exit point.
Your claim only makes sense for a closed container, not one with one end open.
With one end open there is an unbalanced force, which accelerates the rocket, without any need for the atmosphere.

That's my best guess.
Perhaps you should stop guessing then?

By the same absence of reasoning one would "conclude" that electric motors are impossible.

Thermodynamics in no way indicates rockets are impossible.

The numbers don't add up.
Care to provide the numbers and show how they don't add up?

If air is required for movement or flight on earth
And that is a MASSIVE if.
In reality, it is not needed.

It has been repeatedly asserted, because if people like you admitted it wasn't needed on Earth it would raise the question of why it is needed in space; but no one has ever been able to demonstrate it.

The best they have been able to show is that rockets need gas, such as that from the burning fuel and oxygen, not the atmosphere.

In all other explanations of aerodynamic flight

a difference in air pressure results in propulsion. But in space, this condition is no longer required.
Technically it is still there in space.
In front of the craft you have effectively 0 pressure.
In the engine/nozzle, you have the high pressure of the burning fuel/oxygen mixture.
Why can't that accelerate the rocket?

My conclusion to Newton's Laws of Motion is that they are divisive and deliberately opaque. That is, he could not have believed them himself. They simply defy understanding or explanation.
Your inability or unwillingness to understand them has no bearing on others.
They are extremely simple and easy to understand.
The first indicates that objects will continue with whatever motion they have and that you need to do something (i.e. apply a force) to change it.
The second indicates that this force is proportional to the mass times the acceleration, or perhaps more easily understood as:
If you apply a greater force to the same object it will accelerate at a faster rate. If you apply the same force to a more massive object (i.e. one with more mass) it will accelerate slower.
The third law indicates that if you apply a force to something, it applies a force back.

Again, they are very easy to understand.
Just what do you find difficult?

But again, perhaps you can address the issue plaguing the FEers (and other reality deniers) in this thread?

You have a tube of compressed gas in a vacuum, one end is opened.
What will happen?
Will it all just sit there doing nothing, with compressed gas contained in an open container?
Or will the gas leave? If it leaves, that means it needs to accelerate. That means it needs a force and something to push against to provide a reactionary force to.
The only object available is the tube, which means that it will push against the tube.
That means the tube will accelerate.
That means rockets will work in a vacuum.

Or from using pressure:
You have pressurised gas in the tube. On the side walls you have an equal pressure pushing in each direction and thus no net force.
But you have one end having pressure applied while the other end is missing so no pressure is applied.
This results in a net force on the object.
Why wouldn't this accelerate the object?

OK Jack Black.

That's about 3 hours of reading and answering to tie me up for a good day. I need to contact my central heating company as there is a problem first though. Then I need to make calculations for someone else. Then I will set about trying to answer all your questions and rebutals to rebuts I never made like you are suggesting I don't think you can liquify oxygen or extract it.

But I ask you, if you are carrying apparatus that can use an oxydizing agent to extract that oxygen like substance in order to create combustion. How is that more efficient than simply carrying the oxygen-like material in the first instance?

Why is it more weight efficient to extract it within the craft itself from some material and can you reveal the material the oxygen-like substance is being extracted from?

PS. There were 3 cuts in that video for some reason.

Inertia is how difficult it is to change an objects velocity?
Make up your minds.
We aren't the ones who need to make up our minds.
That is what inertia is and always has been.
You misunderstanding people doesn't mean we haven't made up our minds.
There are several ways to express basically the same thing.

You seem to be hiding behind your attempts to make out I'm hiding.
And now you are hiding behind your projection of you hiding. Good job.
We have already provided what you have asked for, while you have repeatedly failed to do so or just refused.
If you would like to see it, just go back through the thread.

Now again, quit with the pathetic distractions and tell us what is accelerating the gas.
What is the gas pushing against?

Once you have made up your mind on that, tell us what is accelerating the rocket, specifically what is in contact with it which is providing a force to accelerate it.

It'll tell me nothing about inertia.
My own reactionary force against my kick will tell me that one ball is much more dense than the other
No, it tells you one is harder to move, i.e. has more inertia.

We have been over this countless times before. The atmosphere has nothing to do with it.
You are appealing to the inertia of the atmosphere.
Why does the atmosphere "slosh"?

Resistance is friction. Vibration is friction. If you call resistance inertia then you call friction the same.
No, they are fundamentally different.
Inertia is resistance to change in motion.
Friction is resistance to relative motion.
They are vastly different.

The only time the gauge would read immediate zero is if all the gas molecules over atmosphere resistant pressure were instantly removed.
Or if they just magically stopped pushing on it.
The only way for the gauge to read 0 is if nothing is pushing on it.

Now I know you want to lie about definitions and pretend that that is magically not a positive pressure because it is less than what it was before, but to everyone else, it is.

Now again, quit with the pathetic distractions and deal with the issue that has been plaguing your side since before you joined this thread.

What does that mean? Rockets do not need generate thrust from any difference in air pressure.

I assume that you haven't bothered to read the numerous posts showing that most of a rocket's thrust is generated internally by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.

A huge force is needed to accelerate that mass and that force is the thrust of the rocket.
"...accelerate the burn propellent." is not a meaningful or logical sentence. Why would you want to apply a motion to the fuel itself?
I did not write "...accelerate the burn propellent". Try reading what is written.
But without a difference in air pressure, there cannot be thrust.
What does that mean? Rockets do not need to generate thrust from any difference in air pressure.

I assume that you haven't bothered to read the numerous posts showing that most of a rocket's thrust is generated internally by the force needed to accelerate the burnt propellant.

A typical rocket engine like the SpaceX Merlin 1D  burns about 329 kg per sec of propellant and accelerates it to about 2570 m/s.
A huge force is needed to accelerate that mass and that force is the thrust of the rocket.
You tell me what force is needed to accelerate a mass of 329 kg from zero to 2570 m/s in one second.

That's about 3 hours of reading and answering to tie me up for a good day.
And all it was was responding to your nonsense.

If defending all your nonsense is too hard, perhaps just focus on the one key issue which shows your side cannot be correct.

What accelerates the gas (i.e. the compressed gas for a cold gas thruster or the burnt/burning fuel-oxygen mix or the like) out of the rocket?

I don't think you can liquify oxygen or extract it.
Really?
You want to go down that route?
Just what would magically prevent it?
Do you accept that you can liquefy water vapour?
What about nitrogen?

But I ask you, if you are carrying apparatus that can extract an oxydent to extract that oxygen like substance in order to create combustion. How is that more efficient than simply carrying the oxygen-like material in the first instance?
Liquid oxygen isn't being used to extract oxygen, it IS oxygen.
Liquid oxygen is far more dense than gaseous oxygen, and thus takes up less space.
That means the tank weighs less.
It isn't extracting it from something, it is simply storing it in a more compact form.

As a simple example, lets say you have a tank which holds 1000 L of liquid oxygen.
If instead of it being liquid, you wanted to hold pure gaseous oxygen at 20 C and atmospheric pressure, you would need a tank which is ~860 000 L, or 860 times the size.
Assuming you were just scaling it, that means the tank would have to weigh ~90 times what you would need for liquid oxygen.

But otherwise, like I said, some oxidants are better than oxygen.

If you would like another example, consider gunpowder. That has an oxidant in it so it can burn a lot faster and not need access to air.

If the internet can only say "it pushed out the fuel" and not saying against what the fuel is pushing, then it is clear you are guessing or using vague psuedo science and just calling me names.

Already people are calling me names, taking things I said out of context and putting words in my mouth.

This isn't me being defensive. It's right up there for the world to read.

If you think you are doing your side of the argument justice then bravo to you.

I'm now going to actually do some research and you can pick teeny tiny holes in every little thing and ignore the key point of how something can push itself in a vacuum.

I don't think anyone reading this is going to view your argument favourably and the zealousness with which you are attacking me is not reflective of a clear conscience or confidence of your convictions.

In short. If your motive is to educate me, it is much closer to an attack on my intelligence and somehow possibly my character as well. Hardly taking the high ground are you?

I now have about 20 defences to make and I will have to go and read this whole 100 page thread because it is lazy of me not to do so or expect you to post a simple explanation because it is too convoluted or complicated to explain in any kind of truncated form.

Classic filibustering.

Does this look real to you?



Also re. this official video. If they are in orbit, how is there a microphone attached to the hull and how did it survive the journey through the stratosphere at thousands of miles an hour and how is it picking up sound within the vacuum of space? ...ok I see it is not supposed to have not left the atmosphere but there is a cut at 35:20.

No successful rocket launch "veers off at about 2000 feet". If you think that you're a terrible judge of distance.

It might be a bit hard videoing a rocket "going all the way into space" from the ground but this one is from a camera on the rocket from launch to orbit:

Rocket cam shots from launch to orbit

I guess you'll justifying ridicule it but ridicule is a very weak argument.

And here's a Shuttle launch seen from a commercial aircraft:

That Shuttle gets to a far higher height than that aircraft.

Nobody in their right mind could call that a "big tin filled with helium with tacked on afterburners to make loads of noise and 'splosions."

This doesn't look at all like the jet fighters I see which use the same technique. They burn almost invisible. I'm only guessing as I'm not a rocket science but that video looks pretty phoney. Why can't I see it's contrails or the launch pad? It's trajectory is precisely at the angle as to obscure the launch pad for the whole 10 minute video.

I'm not sure why it's so difficult to point a camera at the sky for a period longer than 10 minutes to put my mind at rest re. the entire world system of science and education.

It's also pretty bad video quality considering it was filmed in 2017. It looks like my logitech webcam which cost £5.

The film from the plane looks nice but I am aware of the miracle of compositing and special effects so it's possible it is a couple of actors and an afternoon in After Effects.

The original moon landing footage is pretty much on par with the filmic techniques of the time, too.

This is the official explanation of how rockets can move in space.

"...they burn fuel and push the exhaust gases in a direction..."

This is not an explanation. If air is required for movement or flight on earth, it has not been explained here as to why it is no longer required in space.

In all other explanations of aerodynamic flight, a difference in air pressure results in propulsion. But in space, this condition is no longer required. But it is not explained as to why this is.

My conclusion to Newton's Laws of Motion is that they are divisive and deliberately opaque. That is, he could not have believed them himself. They simply defy understanding or explanation.

It's the emperor's new clothes.

The rocket engines has to go somewhere when it's close to the ground and it is direct out each into huge flame trenches, as in:

The day before the first launch attempt of Endeavour on STS-134, I and a coworker went out to LC39A to document the placement of pressure, heat, and temperature sensors on the SRB side of the main flame deflector inside the flame trench.  This video gives an idea of what conditions are one day before a shuttle launch.  The dripping water that you hear is from the water deluge system which is filled and primed to douse the launch pad at liftoff for sound suppression and heat mitigation.

And here is a Shuttle launch showing where the exhaust stream is deflected to:

You want everything! If the video showed both the rocket and the launch pad the rocket would be so small tou'd hardly see it!

Here is what the exhaust stream looks like after the rocket has left the ground.

Note that at sea-level it does not expand into the atmosphere because the pressure in that exhaust stream in very little if any above atmospheric pressure.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/r29xdblpx6bd5si/Rocket%20Exhaust%20-%20Falcon%209%20heavy%20low%20altitude.jpg?dl=1)
Note how narrow the exhaust trail is, hardly wider than the rocket's width.

Then, at high altitude and very low air-pressure the exhaust stream can spread out:

Air isn’t required for flight or movement on earth.  It’s just much much easier and cheaper to use it, both as a medium to generate lift and as a free supply of oxygen.

In space, that’s not an option, so rockets have to carry their own.

Rockets are big, expensive and noisy, with a pretty huge carbon footprint.  Not really suitable for transporting millions of passengers per day.

If the internet can only say "it pushed out the fuel" and not saying against what the fuel is pushing
The fuel is pushing against the rocket.
That is quite simple.
It is like the medicine ball example, where the person was pushing against the ball. It doesn't matter what the ball pushes against other than the person.

Already people are calling me names, taking things I said out of context and putting words in my mouth.
Just what is being taken out of context? Who is calling you names?

You seem to just be playing the victim to avoid defending your claims, or dealing with the key issues which show rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

I'm now going to actually do some research and you can pick teeny tiny holes in every little thing and ignore the key point of how something can push itself in a vacuum.
And now you are projecting.
We are not the ones ignoring how an object can "push itself" in a vacuum.

The rocket isn't pushing itself. It is burning fuel to create very high pressure gas which pushes it.
That gas doesn't push itself forwards with the rocket. It goes one way and the rocket goes the other.
Just like the medicine ball.

Meanwhile, I am yet to find a someone who rejects rockets like you who can explain how the gas manages to leave in the first place.

I now have about 20 defences to make and I will have to go and read this whole 100 page thread because it is lazy of me not to do so or expect you to post a simple explanation because it is too convoluted or complicated to explain in any kind of truncated form.
Except I provided a simple explanation, as have others, which you just dismissed or brought up pure nonsense to attack it, which was then refuted.

Don't act like it hasn't been provided. If you aren't willing to put in the effort to actually bother reading what people post for you, don't expect them to do it repeatedly.

Again, there are a few simple ways.
The rocket generates high pressure gas by burning the fuel.
This acts outwards in all directions, pushing on the rocket. However the force on the rocket is unbalanced as it has a large opening in it.
This results in it providing a net force to the rocket which accelerates it.

Alternatively, the rocket pushes the exhaust away at a high velocity which pushes the rocket away. Simple action-reaction.

Again, if you want to claim they can't work, then either tell me the gas will remain trapped inside an open container exposed to vacuum, or explain how that gas is accelerated so it can leave the rocket. The only thing it can interact with to push off is the rocket.

Thing is. How is it efficient to have such a fiery burning fuel that is directed out to the side and billowing out in such a way?
Where is it directed out the sides?
Do you mean on the ground at launch, where the ground directs it? If so, it has left the rocket then and doesn't matter.
If you mean at high altitude where once it leaves it bulges out, the reason it ends up not just going straight out is the large range of pressures that the rocket goes through.
It is very difficult to have a single nozzle work for all altitudes perfectly, so some efficiency is lost to make it so loads of stages aren't needed.

This doesn't look at all like the jet fighters I see which use the same technique.
Jet's use a fundamentally different technique and have a much smaller pressure range to deal with.


Pretty much sums it up.
Yes, it does. You guys get a simple explanation, and then blatantly misrepresent it to pretend it is completely wrong, complete with setting up pathetic strawmen to attack.

Figured out what accelerates the gas yet, i.e. what it pushes off?
Or what actually pushes on the rocket?

Combustion requires a fuel and oxidant. Air is not a requirement.

An oxidant (or oxidizing agent) is something which creates oxygen, which is present in air. But oxygen can be isolated and compressed, yes.

But without a difference in air pressure, there cannot be thrust.
An oxidant does not create oxygen.

There are pressure changes going from the combustion chamber to the exhaust plume.  Not to mention in subsystems like the turbo pumps on the fuel and oxidant lines.

My books don’t explicitly state that rockets work in a vacuum, possibly because they were written long before flat earthers starting claiming they didn’t. 

It just doesn’t need saying because the physics of thermodynamics is perfectly compatible with rockets working in space.  Same with all the other engineering subjects.  You can look at the fluid flow, the heat transfers, the basic laws of motion, and it’s all just fine.

You might have missed it on the 100+ pages before you joined, but in the simplest terms:

Rocket throws mass out the back, rocket goes forward.  An equal and opposite reaction.  That’s really all you need to know to get the principle.

Combustion requires a fuel and oxidant. Air is not a requirement.

An oxidant (or oxidizing agent) is something which creates oxygen, which is present in air. But oxygen can be isolated and compressed, yes.

But without a difference in air pressure, there cannot be thrust.
An oxidant does not create oxygen.
According to wikipedia "In chemistry, an oxidizing agent (oxidant, oxidizer) is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances."

Nowhere in my thermodynamics texts does it state that you can’t propel and object in space.  I’ve seen such a claim from the field of Thermodynamics (which I did study, btw).

Is it stated anywhere in your texts that this is possible? I never heard that before. Because two opposing pressures is key to thermodynamics working at all isn't it?

There are pressure changes going from the combustion chamber to the exhaust plume.  Not to mention in subsystems like the turbo pumps on the fuel and oxidant lines.

Throws mass out of the back, how?

And throwing anything against zero resistance will not push a rocket forward. It just won't.
Allowing mass to compress the atmosphere will create an equal reaction to that mass. This includes your rocket burn expand out of being compressed inside a rocket to compressing the atmosphere it expands into.

A rocket burn cannot do anything against extreme minimal resistance.

Please stop posting the gif of that idiot on a trolley. That is in no way an acceptable scientific experiment. You can clearly see him rocking himself backwards.

Look carefully. At the point the ball is released, no motion is in effect. Then he rocks his body and low and behold he rolls back a bit. I mean. Wow. Just. Wow.

How do you account for the pause in motion before the 2 distinct slight movements that follow shortly afterwards?

You could do that experiment with a spring, a catch and a pool ball. All that will happen is the trolley containing the spring and ball will shift to the amount the center of the combined weight of the ball and aparatus is moved by the spring up until the point the ball is no longer affecting the apparatus by it's contact at which point the apparatus will come to a halt.

Try it and record it because I an't be bothered. I don't think I can do any more here.

You mean the “Check your Understanding” question:


2. For years, space travel was believed to be impossible because there was nothing that rockets could push off of in space in order to provide the propulsion necessary to accelerate. This inability of a rocket to provide propulsion is because ...

a. ... space is void of air so the rockets have nothing to push off of.

b. ... gravity is absent in space.

c. ... space is void of air and so there is no air resistance in space.

d. ... nonsense! Rockets do accelerate in space and have been able to do so for a long time.

If you click on the “see answer” button, you’ll discover the answer is d: nonsense!

A gas effectively consists of multitudes of small particles bouncing around.

When those particles are in a sealed container, the action of all these particles bouncing around exerts pressure on the walls of the container.

This pressure is equal on all sides and therefore an equal force acts on walls of the container.

Now make a hole in one wall of the container.

Gas particles pass through the hole without exerting pressure on container and this force on that wall is lower.

Therefore there is a higher force on the wall opposite the hole.

If there is more force one one side of the container than the other then it will accelerate.

What forces cause the object to expand and contract?
Atmospheric pressure changes upon the object.
What happens if the atmospheric pressure doesn't change?

Quote from: markjo

It's fine for you to argue that it's not really moving but, if you want to be honest, it's not true.
Just because something isn't moving to the naked eye, does not mean it's still.
If you're talking about the microscopic vibrations of individual atoms and molecules, they don't count because when you look at the object as a whole, those vibrations cancel each other out and there is no overall motion.
That's like saying the bugs living on a bed bugs body are not relevant to us but are relevant to the bed bug, most likely, but can be discarded as nothing to us in terms of us not being capable of seeing, so are irrelevant in terms of how they move or operate.
The reality is, big or small, it all matters, because without the small you do not get the big and for this to happen there has to be movement.
You can't see the forest for the trees can you?


Quote from: markjo

So, in this case, inertia means nothing. the word can be erased because it's worthless as a reality.
No, it means that you're overthinking your scenario.
Or maybe I'm simply giving you a bit of realism.
No, you're just making things more complicated than they need to be.


Quote from: markjo

An object will always be acted upon by an external/unbalanced force. Always.
The saying is meaningless and so is the word, inertia, unless it pertains to a reality.
The "unless it's acted upon by an external force" part is exactly why the law does pertain to reality.
Unless means nothing.
I can say to you, do this work unless you want to be sacked. Nothing has happened other than me mentioning a scenario.
Let's call this inertia threat.
If you do the work you won't be sacked, so the threat only exists if you do not do what is asked of you.

If you refuse to do the work then you get sacked. It is no longer a threat, it's a reality that you were sacked. The threat simply existed as nothing more than a verbal.

Inertia is nothing more than a word that does not mean anything as a reality.
No, that scenario has nothing to do with what I said.

"Inertia" is a word that we use when we want to discuss a certain property of matter in much the same way that "color" is a word that we use when we want to discuss another certain property of matter.

Quote from: markjo
Remember it has to have a reason for being a name in reality.
Huh? ???  What do you mean?  What do names have to do with reality?  Inertia is a certain innate property of matter that was identified and they had to name it something.  It's like asking why they named a certain color green.
They key word is in bold.
Imaginary. A dreamed up piece of nonsense to describe something that cannot happen.

Definition of innate

1 : existing in, belonging to, or determined by factors present in an individual from birth : native, inborn innate behavior
2 : belonging to the essential nature of something : inherent
Innate is a good word to use because it gives the impression that it's a natural occurrence borne out of nothing other than the mind of an individual but not fitting anything of reality to anyone else.

Again, if all of this is too long because of just how much nonsense you have said sinse I last posted, feel free to focus on the key issue, every rocket denier has been avoiding:

What accelerates the gas out of the rocket? What is it pushing against to accelerate? (Including in a vacuum, unless you want to claim that gas will remain trapped in an open container.)
And then what is in contact with the rocket which accelerates it?


I'm still waiting just for a continuous video of going from launch pad to turn round and look at the whole world without any cuts.
Then go make your own rocket.

Everyone is.
No, only those looking to deny reality.

I would have thought this would be simple given their funding.
How?
That would involve multiple stages which typically include fairings. So either the camera is jettisoned with an earlier stage, or hidden by the fearing for a significant part of the journey.

Please find that video for me.
No. It has no bearing on the discussion at hand.

There's probably something in here...
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/337460709_Aerodynamic_Thermodynamic_Modeling_and_Simulation_of_Turbofan_Engine
"An  engine component  model  is  established  by  means  of the  gas flow path of the engine. "
That means you can't fly without gas. In thermodynamics at least.
No, that means a turbofan engine wont work without the atmosphere.
Again, what you are claiming is pure nonsense.

Just because a turbofan engine wont work in a vacuum doesn't mean no engine can.

Is it stated anywhere in your texts that this is possible?
There are plenty of texts regarding rocket flight, including in space.

Because two opposing pressures is key to thermodynamics working at all isn't it?
No, it isn't.
The key to thermodynamics, is the flow of energy, i.e. the dynamics of heat.
In the context of rockets, it is the combination of the fuel and oxidant to produce high pressure gas, which then acts on the rocket, specifically doing work on it.

You don't need 2 opposing pressures for motion, you need a net force.
This can come from a single source of pressure, or from 2 different pressures acting on each side.

According to wikipedia "In chemistry, an oxidizing agent (oxidant, oxidizer) is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances."
Yes, like I said before.
Notice how it is nothing to do with creating oxygen?

The pressure changes need to be opposing from an exterior and interior system to create thrust in the body of the vehicle. Is how I understand it.
And your understanding has a significant flaw. One of these pressures can be 0. There is no need for both to be a significant pressure.

All you need to do is consider the pressure acting on the rocket.
You have the vacuum of space, providing effectively no pressure in front of it. You then have the engine and nozzle burning fuel to create very high pressure gas, which applies a pressure to the back of the rocket.

So we now have 2 different pressures. One is effectively 0 (the vacuum) and one is very high.
This should make the rocket move.

Flat earther's did not claim you can't create thrust in a vacuum, that was the scientific consensus up until the moon landing proved them wrong. Not my words, the words of https://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/newtlaws/Lesson-4/Newton-s-Third-Law
No, they certainly did. They objected to all the pictures from space clearly showing Earth being round, so to attack it they claimed that rockets can't work in space.
Some other conspiracy people also want to claim they can't so they can deny the moon landings.
But there was no scientific consensus that they can't work in a vacuum.

If anything, the scientific consensus was that they can. What some scientists objected to was going all the way to the moon due to the massive distance involved.

Newton's third law shows that quite easily, and directly relates to the issue you and every other FE or rocket denier in this thread has avoided.
You start with the gas and the rocket together, moving at the same velocity.
Then the gas leaves the rocket. This means it must accelerate and thus must have a force applied to it.
That means that there must be an equal and opposite reaction.
That means that there must be a force on the rocket that accelerates the rocket.

The only other option is for the gas to remain trapped in an open container.

Please tell us what the gas is pushing off to accelerate out of the rocket, unless you want to claim it will remain magically trapped inside an open container?

That is actually crucial to the thread, and is a point that your side has been ignoring or avoiding ever since it was brought up.
It seems that everything else being brought up is just to try and distract from this key issue.

This is because honestly answering it shows that rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

No-one on the internet was saying global earth theory was accepted even before the 1940's until about 5 years ago when history was revised again.
That is pure nonsense, even for FE standards.

If that was the case, why did FEs high prophet Row Boat make a book trying to claim Earth is flat and trying to disprove the real Round Earth much earlier?

At the point the ball is released, no motion is in effect.
Look harder. There clearly is motion then.

Feel free to try the experiment yourself with no ball and see how far you can go.
Or even better, do it in a more controlled way where a rigid mechanism shoots out a ball.

All that will happen is the trolley containing the spring and ball will shift to the amount the center of the combined weight of the ball and aparatus is moved by the spring up until the point the ball is no longer affecting the apparatus by it's contact at which point the apparatus will come to a halt.
No, it will keep moving.
What magic force is there to bring it to a halt?

Try it and record it because I an't be bothered. I don't think I can do any more here.
You are the one that seems to need help. You are rejecting reality based upon nothing more than wild speculation.

Also, are you one of the fake FEers you are complaining about?  Spouting pure nonsense which is easily debunked?

Throws mass out of the back, how?
Already explained, the high pressure gas. Remember?

That is what you need to address.
How does this gas accelerate to leave the rocket?
What is it pushing against?

And throwing anything against zero resistance will not push a rocket forward.
The mass of the gas provides the resistance.
The acceleration of that gas is the resistance which demands a force which produces a reactionary force which moves the rocket forwards (technically which accelerates it forwards).

I don't expect to have to defend myself on here.
There is the believers only section for that.

If you don't want to defend yourself, go make your claims there.

And as an added extra, I'm still waiting for your diagram.
They have already been provided to you.
So you aren't waiting for us. You are waiting for yourself to actually bother looking at and understanding the diagrams.

Meanwhile, we are still waiting on your diagrams, which need to clearly show a force acting on the rocket to accelerate it, and need to show action-reaction pairs.
You are yet to produce a diagram that has that.

Are you afraid to do a diagram or can't you do a diagram because you actually have no clue how in the hell your rocket is supposed to work?
And there you go projecting again.

Again, WE HAVE PROVIDED DIAGRAMS!
Diagrams you have been unable to refute.
Diagrams which actually show the action-reaction pairs.
Diagrams which actually show a force acting on the rocket.

You have not provided such a diagram?
Are you afraid to do so because you know such a diagram will show that rockets do work in space?
Or are you just not doing it because you don't know how to make such a diagram which doesn't show rockets will work in space?

Quit stalling and start to actually address the issues plaguing your side.
Provide a diagram clearly showing action-reaction pairs and what is actually acting on the rocket, providing a force to accelerate it.
Clearly explain what is wrong with our diagrams and explanations.
Provide an explanation for how the gas accelerates out of the tube/rocket in a vacuum, clearly identifying what it is pushing off in order to accelerate.

Anything else is just pathetic stalling.

Just a new person here and no FE'r.

I do have a question for sceptimatic. Can you explain how rockets from a firework works? The thrust these rockets provide are not able to press the atmosphere yet they will go into the air at a pretty high altitude. So how can these rockets fly?
They are able to expand into the atmosphere, just like any rocket or missile under a burning thrust.

If this is the case then they will not going higher then 1 or 2 inches from the ground. While in practice these rockets are going much higher then the 1 or 2 inches. So again, how can these tiny rockets compress the atmosphere so much that they can go that high in the sky.
How do you manage to work that out?

Quite simple. You say that the exhaust of a rocket 'super compress' the air beneath in such way that at a certain point this air push back and lift the rocket. Am I right about this? So with a firework rocket this 'compression' can not be that high since the exhaust of this rocket is not able to compress this air. So again my question. How can these tiny rockets can go up that far in the air as we see them do?

Throwing any mass backward will require force to accelerate that mass, to overcome its inertia.
While doing that you also push yourself off that mass, that's the resistance you failed to see.

I did read all the 100+pages and now that rockets will work in space. However I am wonder how scepti will answer this simple thing, because in essence both type are working with the same principle. So if scepti can explain that this little rocket works the same as a space rocket then there is a major flaw in his theory.

No. I am not scepti since I know that rockets are working in space and satellites are very real. Therefor I don't draw the diagram since the correct one is already drawn. That is the original drawing before scepti draws his green bar where no arrow is pointing towards the rocket and therefor no force is pushing the rocket forward.

I have a strong feeling the new guy hatty is actually scepti.
Scepti typically gets very excited to start denP froms scratch with new comers.
Im very surprised he didnt after 3pg of relative agreement between the two.


So
Would new guy and old guy please draw hiw the green bar pushes on the rocket?

Thanks

Possible.  Might also be a danang alt.  Look at Hatty's hand drawn avatar and danang's hand drawn south pole flat earth.  Suck horribly.
Seems to be on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/user/Hattyfatner/) saying dumb shit about space.  And Hearthstone.

New guy hatty is now bright and now believes in rockets?

Very confusing because when hatty/ bright first joined, he was promoting denP.
No. 2 different new guys accounts.

No. I am not scepti since I know that rockets are working in space and satellites are very real. Therefor I don't draw the diagram since the correct one is already drawn. That is the original drawing before scepti draws his green bar where no arrow is pointing towards the rocket and therefor no force is pushing the rocket forward. Hence my question about the firework rocket.

What an odd thing then to respond to a direct reply to someone elses post.

@Themightykabool. I agree that it is a bit odd to respond to 1 person and putting in the same line a question for Scepti.

For all the other ones I am not hatty or scepti. Just a new person that wants to join this 'little' discussion. I hope that this makes everything clear for everyone

Of course it's capable of doing it. What do you think that fire is doing coming out the arse end of it?
It's expanding into the atmosphere and compressing it and the atmosphere is crushing rights back, creating  a platform against the thrust and following it for as long as that thrust is capable.

So many pages ago?

Again, this has already been provided to you.
Stop using it as a tactic to stall.

Perhaps the reason why people aren't just providing it again and again is because they want you to stop with the dishonest stalling tactics and actually address the issues you have been ignoring since you joined this thread?

Senseless.
Yes, you most certainly do seem senseless.
You have been unable to provide a single issue with the diagrams provided.
Instead you just repeated dismiss them as nonsense or ignore them in their entirety.

Again, the simple fact that gas starts in the rocket and accelerates demands that there is an action-reaction pair inside the rocket.
If there wasn't the gas wouldn't accelerate out of the rocket.

What do you then try to replace that with?
A magic force unpaired with anything.

Again, what causes the gas to accelerate out of the rocket?
If you cannot answer this question you have no case at all.

I don’t really care if you understand or not the mainstream principles and designs of rocket propulsion. You are free to learn about it or choose not to.  It’s a free world and you can believe whatever you want, and as long as you are well in body and mind I’m happy for you. 

But I do like your stories, so if you don’t mind, I would appreciate if you could work more on this one and try to describe the actual force that pushes the rocket in the world you have built in your mind.

The rocket's thrust is due to the high pressure on the nozzle as the burnt propellant is accelerated from transonic to hypersonic (up to 3000 m/s) velocities.

- How is the expanding gas making a 'platform'
- How is the expanding gas pushing off this weaker 'platform'?

By compressing the opposing resistant gas into being one. As above.

By this time it is not a weaker platform, it's a equal reactionary platform which now springs back after the crash of thrust, all he way up for as long as that thrust remains consistent.

- How is the expanding gas 'compressing' a weaker resistance?
The very same way you would compresses a weaker resistant sponge until your mass compressed it enough to support it.

The 'sponge' would only be compressed in one direction, from the top, in this instance. That wouldn't make the 'sponge' rigid enough to provide a suitable resistance. There's nothing underneath the 'sponge' for it to compress against. How might the levitating 'sponge' float there under the rocket thrust with nothing beneath it?

A rocket's thrust is simply the force required to accelerate an enormous mass of burnt propellant (hundreds of kilograms per second) from zero to the version high exhaust velocity (thousands of metres per second).

What happens to the exhaust gas after it leaves the rocket engine is neither here nor there.

And again, that is entirely due to your wilful ignorance. You have been provided with plenty of diagrams and explanations of how they work, which you just dismiss as nonsense.
You have no intention of ever accepting any explanation of how they work, because if you do your entire fantasy comes crashing down.

So instead of repeatedly expecting people to provide you with what has already been provided, why don't you start doing what has been asked.

Tell us what the gas pushes against to accelerate out of the rocket.
Then tell us what actually pushes on the rocket.

Your diagrams have all been complete failures with no hope of ever matching reality.
You had no force on the rocket, and thus no way for the rocket to move.
You had completely unbalanced forces, where the gas just has a force acting on it from nothing with no reactionary force.

Any diagram with any hope of matching reality would need to include 2 important things:
A force acting on the rocket to accelerate it forwards.
Balanced action-reaction pairs.

By this time it is not a weaker platform, it's a equal reactionary platform which now springs back after the crash of thrust, all he way up for as long as that thrust remains consistent.
Again, we know this isn't the case.
If it was, the gas would be thrown forwards, in front of the rocket instead of continuing to blast back into the air.
It would also mean motion would be basically impossible.
Any motion would likewise compress the air until it crushed back and pushed you back.

Now again, what does the gas push off in order to leave the rocket?
We know it can't be the atmosphere as that is in the wrong direction.
In fact the only thing in the right direction is the rocket.
Do you have an alternative? Without one, the only conclusion is that the gas pushes on the rocket and thus rockets work in space.

I find it odd you do not get it. I mean the whole world knows they work.
He knows how they work.  He has his game to play.
I have no clue how a space rocket works. There's no diagram that shows how it works. Just nonsensical stuff that tells us to accept that it does when it goes against the grain of reality.

Great

I think Sceppy has given up.
No you didn't.
It sure seemed like it.
But why do you bother when it so obvious that you haven't the slightest understanding how large "space rocket engines" work?
Here's the pressure distribution through a typical pump-fed liquid-fuelled rocket engine:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/ogr8d6bjvh3jlas/Scheme%20of%20pressure%20distribution%20in%20a%20pumping%20fed%20rocket%20engine.png?dl=1)
Scheme of pressure distribution in a pumping fed rocket engine.

The rocket's thrust is due to the high pressure on the nozzle as the burnt propellant is accelerated from transonic to hypersonic (up to 3000 m/s) velocities.
I guess that you have heard that force = mass x acceleration?
Have fun!
What the hell is all that nonsense.
Do I have to spell this all out in bigger letters?

Show me a diagram of how a space rocket works. Show me exactly what's going on and why,
 so I can understand what you and other push out as your reality.


None of you seem to know but rely on finding obscure diagrams that show nothing.
I'm willing to show how my gases work to propel a rocket but I need to see how your gases actually propel your rocket in atmosphere and in your vacuum of your space.

Why
Why do you need to know the "false" information first?
What bearing does it have in anyway when youve tine and tjne agin call it fake news.
If its wrong then it has no revelance and should MUST! be replaced with the truth

- How is the expanding gas 'compressing' a weaker resistance?
The very same way you would compresses a weaker resistant sponge until your mass compressed it enough to support it.

Quote from: Stash
- How is the expanding gas making a 'platform'
By compressing the opposing resistant gas into being one. As above.

Quote from: Stash
- How is the expanding gas pushing off this weaker 'platform'?
By this time it is not a weaker platform, it's a equal reactionary platform which now springs back after the crash of thrust, all he way up for as long as that thrust remains consistent.

Quote from: Stash
Once and again, many diagrams have been shown here as to how a rocket works in our world, yet, you have shown none that work in your world.
Yet you keep on asking for diagrams and such that have already been provided.

Scepti. What I said previously. How is it possible that a firework rocket can fly if you say that the air will be 'super compressed' by the exhaust. This little firework rocket is not capable to do this, yet it will fly. Please explain how this is possible with your 'theory'.
Of course it's capable of doing it. What do you think that fire is doing coming out the arse end of it?
It's expanding into the atmosphere and compressing it and the atmosphere is crushing rights back, creating  a platform against the thrust and following it for as long as that thrust is capable.

Ok Scepti. So you think that the exhaust of a firework rocket has the same pressure as from a spare rocket?
Nope. I don't argue for the exhaust, I argue the point before exhaustion which is the burn, which is far from exhaust.
And I presume you mentioned space rocket instead of spare rocket, right?
If so, I can't think the exhaust of a firework is the same as a space rocket if I do not believe in space rockets.
You won;t get far putting words into mouths.


Quote from: bright
Another question. What amount of force is needed to compress the air beneath the exhaust of a rocket?
 I bet that you are not able to tell this us.

Already done! So maybe you could answer these simple questions:
  • Does it require a force to increase the velocity of a mass Y/N?

  • Does gas have mass Y/N?

  • Therefore does it require a force to accelerate a mass Y/N?

  • Is the propellant accelerated in the rocket engine Y/N?

  • Does gas pressure on a surface cause a force on that surface Y/N?

  • In the bell of the rocket engine shown on the right, does the pressure of the propellant
    on the walls of the bell have a component directed towards the front of the rocket Y/N?

If you answered Y to all the above then the rocket thrust it the total forward force of that gas on the bell of the rocket.

Do you think that the 101st explanation will suddenly work when the previous 100 failed?  While I think your explanations (and those from many others) have been clear and useful, at this point no one is saying anything really new, right? And after it has been repeated ad naseum for more than a hundred pages, he just admitted that despite this, he doesnt understand it at all.  While I appreciate everyones (including sceptimatics) dedication to the topic, how many more times are you going to try? 

Perhaps people should just accept he is incapable of understanding it?  Wouldn't that be okay?  Some people just have poor comprehension skills - for whatever reason their minds are unable to understand ideas being conveyed, no matter how simply they are stated and they number of times they are repeated.  What's the point of deluging such people over and over with the same information?

- How is the expanding gas 'compressing' a weaker resistance?
The very same way you would compresses a weaker resistant sponge until your mass compressed it enough to support it.

The 'sponge' would only be compressed in one direction, from the top, in this instance. That wouldn't make the 'sponge' rigid enough to provide a suitable resistance. There's nothing underneath the 'sponge' for it to compress against. How might the levitating 'sponge' float there under the rocket thrust with nothing beneath it?

Let's see if your head can absorb this.

If you jumped onto from a height and landed on 1 mattress what would happen to your body and the mattress?

You can accept that the mattress would provide very little spring back to your fall, right?
What about 5 mattresses?
Which one would take the biggest impact and would it be more springy on you as you hit it...and why?


What about 10 mattresses?
Would this be more springy and create a much .
What about 20 and 30 and 40.
Now start thinking of the rocket thrust and that analogy.

Nope. I don't argue for the exhaust
No, you do, you just pretend it is something else by inventing new definitions.
Once it has left the rocket, it is exhaust.

Try explaining how your rocket works, first.
Our side already has plenty of times.
You were unable to find a single problem with it.
Instead you just dismiss it or ignore it.

Now quit with the pathetic distractions and YOU explain how rockets allegedly work.

Explain what the gas is pushing off to leave the rocket.
Then explain why is actually pushing the rocket.

Again, the only sane option is that the gas is pushing against the rocket, as that is the only thing available for it to push off to accelerate it in the correct direction.
But that means rockets MUST work in a vacuum.

This is the issue you have been avoiding from the moment you joined this thread.
This the key issue which destroys your fantasy.
Yet you KNOW you cannot possibly provide an answer, because either you accept it pushes off the rocket and thus rockets work in space, or you go with the fantasy of not pushing off anything where you don't need to push off anything to move, which means that the same should apply to a rocket.
Either way, rockets work in space.

So cut out all the pathetic distractions and just deal with this key issue:
What is the gas pushing off to accelerate out of the rocket.
This may be easiest to explain by drawing a diagram which shows the action-reaction pair. 2 forces side by side, equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. One pushing on the gas inside the rocket to accelerate it out and one pushing on something right next to the gas (which again, your only option is the rocket).

I try to come up with simpler and simpler ways of putting it but I guess it's "Rocket Science".
Sceptimatic thinks that he's so brilliant that, using "common sense" alone he can come up with the "theory of everything".

So he point-blank refuses to look at all the experimental work done by Galileo Galilei, Robert Hooke, Isaac Newton on the "Laws of Motion" and those like Robert Boyle, Jacques A. C. Charles, and Joseph Gay‐Lussac who worked out the "Gas Laws".

In the end, Sceptimatic uses quite a different language and he uses common words

Then he thinks that single-handed and without any meaningful experiments he can replicate all that himself.
Of course, he's not the only one who thinks that way.
Sandokhan does a lot more research but seems to think that he alone can interpret this correctly and so comes up with a whole new chronology and flat-Earth "model".

But the flat-Earth of the two are in no way similar and quite different from the "usual" flat-Earth model (if there is one).
Yet each of them will explicitly state that they alone are correct.

Go figure!

This might (or might not) help:
Back on February 13, 2017 I asked Sceppy to fill in his meaning for the list of words below:
(Sceppy filled the definitions into the Quote of my post.)

You claim "I understand what they mean." OK, please define:
"mass",.....The amount of material that makes up an object.
"weight",....The amount compactness of a material that can displace atmospheric pressure.
"volume",...The amount of porosity in any object.
"density"....The structure of a material that can displace atmospheric pressure to create a scale reading. (Denpressure)
"speed",....The ability to go a distance in a certain time in any direction.
"velocity",..... The speed of something in one direction, only.
"acceleration",.....The continuous build up of movement.
"force",..... Any energy push in any direction
"inertia",..... Something that cannot be explained as anything, to be fair.
"pressure",.....I think pressure can be lumped in with force. there's actually no difference to what they both mean in the grand scheme of things.
"pressure gradient",........ The difference in energy force that goes from low to high or high to low.
"power",....  Energy push.
"energy"......Vibration and friction, which basically are the same thing.

There you go. I took the time out to answer them in my own words. Sit and argue them all you want by looking in your, all knowing no wrong science book of mainstream answers to any questions that you follow without question.
Also, only 9 months later Copper Knickers asked the following question:

Would a litre of water and a litre of mercury have the same mass in denpressure theory?

What is mass?
And Sceppy did not know even though he earlier said "mass",.....The amount of material that makes up an object. - go figure!

The smoke coming out of a car is exhaust.
As would flames coming out of a car's exhaust pipe be exhaust.

They key part is that the gases have been expelled and no longer do work on the vehicle.

In both cases the exhaust is still hot and capable of having its energy lowered.

But again, this is just another pathetic distraction.

You sure seem to love avoiding the issue, as if you KNOW you cannot resolve it.

As do you.

The big difference is that I do accept that I could be wrong, but all the evidence and rational thought shows that rockets do work in space.
Meanwhile you assert that you are right, but can't even explain how the gas leaves the rocket.


Again, what does the gas push against to leave the rocket?
The only thing available is the rocket.
If it pushes against the rocket, that means it pushes the rocket and rockets work in space.
If it doesn't and just magically moves without needing to push on anything then why should the rocket need to push on anything?
Either way, rockets work in space.

Again, how about you stop with the deflection and address this issue?
What is the gas pushing against to leave the rocket?

And still not a good explanation from scepti of how a simple firework rocket works. And don't come with your gas-on-gas fight, super-compressing the air and all that kind of words. A firework rocket is not able to create a huge amount of force that is capable of super-compress the air. Yet the firework rocket will go into the air, so what force is responsible to get this into the air?

And I agree with Jackblack that once the gas is leaving the firework rocket it is an exhaust. It doesn't matter if there is a flame or not.

Having different vernaculars definitely makes shared comprehension difficult, and its obvious that you can not project the precise and meaningful conventional descriptors of science onto the way that he sees the world in his mind.  Thats probably one of the reasons why he struggles so desperately to actually understand the conventional scientific body of knowledge.
Conventional
adjective
1.
based on or in accordance with what is generally done or believed.

Not struggling as such, just not accepting stuff handed out as science which isn't potentially that and more like duping or at best, mostly, pseudo-science or metaphysics.

You are entitled to believe what you want, imagine what you want, and reject whatever you want.  You are welcome to believe in your magic crystal and strange atmosphere, it doesn't matter.  Go ahead and think the sun is a fire dragon named Steve who winks at you during eclipses, and as long as you are healthy and happy and not sacrificing virgins to appease his fiery hunger, all the best to you. 

That said, unless you are just play acting here, it is clear you are struggling to understand the conventional description. Besides the 106 pages of people here patiently (and impatiently) explaining, the world of information is at your fingertips, with textbooks, video tutorials, and web based resources all describing the modern understanding of rocket propulsion.  I dont care if you reject all of it as Reptillian plot, but the fact that you still dont understand how it works at all is a clear sign that you have some sort of emotional, psychological, or cognitive block to being able to process the information. 

This is fine, we all have our limitations. (and strengths, I really do like your imagination, you are a much more creative person than I am).  Just something you might want to think about.

I've done many meaningful experiments that prove to me what the Earth is not.
So you say, now where are all these experiments that verify all your weird definitions and your hypothetical behavior of gases.
Because unless you've verified this hypothetical behavior of gases it remains no more than guesswork.
Basically what the theoretical science world is doing with a lot of stuff. Including yourself with simply accepting it without verifying it yourself.
The properties of gases were not "theoretical science"! They were all found by direct experiments with measurements.
I believe them because they are consistent with what is observed.
There are now theories as to why those old "gas laws" were nearly true and these theories also show the limitations of those old laws.

Nevertheless, those old gas laws are all that is needed in most situations.

But I see no need nor would it be possible for every individual to personally repeat every experiment and measurement of science.
Were that the case there could never be any progress.

Quote from: sceptimatic
What I think it all is is down to my own hypotheses and I do not pass them off as facts. I pass them off as my potentials against what I believe are lies and errors of a global, rotating, Earth.
So why are all your explanations and your flat-Earth model so different from those of Sandokhan, Wise or Tom Bishop.

Are they all complete wrong?
All may be completely wrong or all wrong in some ways and in others, correct.
There's no way of knowing the absolute truth of everything and this is why debates happen and continue to happen.
This is why philosophies and theories....hypotheses and what not, happen.
While "there's no way of knowing the absolute truth" many things reach a point where they can be "regarded as proven beyond reasonable doubt"

And for centuries Newton's Laws of Motion and Universal Gravitation were "regarded as proven beyond reasonable doubt".
Then along came Einstein and extended Newton's Laws into regions that Newton could not envisage in his day.
Quote from: sceptimatic
You need to accept that what you adhere to could also be wrong.
Sure but until there is evidence suggesting that "what I adhere to might be wrong" I see no reason to believe things that I can easily see cannot be correct.

Would love to, probably some fascinating insight there. I like the subject too, I have to say even 20 years later, seeing Cherenkov radiation in person still stands out as one of the coolest things I can remember. 

That said, this thread is making so much progress seems a shame to disrupt it.  ;) Link to old discussion?

I agree.
The only way to figure out scepinese is to walk through the language word by word.
It took us nearly 20pg to discover negative presure meant negative rate in relation to its previous state, not in relation to outside the vessel as most normal humans consider it.
The only way to understand it is to pay attention and put the global shield to one side whilst you do that.
Failure to do this will naturally render any effort to try to understand, as pointless.

I suggest you actually take the time to look at the model handed to you on a plate before you even try to engage with my thought process.

Great
Lets do that then
Put the duped fake science to the side and work on our green bar diagram.
Quit asking for concentional rocket diagrams.
Show us the way.

No it's not exhaust.
Yes it is.
You wanting to lie about definitions doesn't change that.

The smoke coming out of a car is exhaust.
As would flames coming out of a car's exhaust pipe be exhaust.

They key part is that the gases have been expelled and no longer do work on the vehicle.

In both cases the exhaust is still hot and capable of having its energy lowered.

But again, this is just another pathetic distraction.

You sure seem to love avoiding the issue, as if you KNOW you cannot resolve it.

Again, what is the gas pushing against to accelerate out of the rocket?

IE
If that car was the batmobile (micahel keaton)

Good
You looked up a word that we currently dont have issue with.
But its all your other purposefully misrepresented use of language as posted by rab that was the problem.
Keep on missing the point.

Or purposefully avoiding it.

It's raining here and I was bored so I thought I'd check out the FES. It's been like six months since I was here, and you guys are still arguing about whether rockets can work in a vacuum??? I'm actually kind of impressed that those of you who are sane can keep it up this long. So maybe I can clear it all up:

The reason we know that rockets can work in a vacuum is that rockets do work in a vacuum. Since they do, they can. Hope this helps.  :)

Welcome back but I'm afraid facts, logic and common sense have no place in the minds of Rockets in Space Deniers.

When shown numerous videos and eye-witness reports of rockets they just claim that they go up arc over and are dumped into the sea.
This is all supposedly part of some ridiculous Global conspiracy controlled by "somebody" to "hide God and the true shape of the Earth from the ignorant masses.

What anybody would gain from conspiracy this is a complete mystery but so is what goes on in the minds of these Rockets in Space Deniers!

When you point out that most people can see the ISS at exactly the specified times some say that it's just a helium balloon shaped like that!

Go figure!

Scepti. What I said previously. How is it possible that a firework rocket can fly if you say that the air will be 'super compressed' by the exhaust. This little firework rocket is not capable to do this, yet it will fly. Please explain how this is possible with your 'theory'.
I think Sceppy has given up:

Thats too bad, :( I was really hoping sceptimatic would finally try to explain the force that pushes a rocket in his world.  Probably something to do with a sloshing, stacked, atmosphere, but you cant discount that maybe his magic crystal at the center of the (flat) world was involved?

Did you pound your chest as you typed that?

That probably did come across too aggressively.  Apologies.  I do actually really like Sceptimatic's fantasy world and enjoy hearing about it, I think he has a wonderful imagination.

What are your thoughts on it?  Do you like the idea of an invisible magic crystal at the center of the world shining on a dome to give us the sun, moon, stars, and planets?  What about the idea that we are all 'swimming' through semisolid mattress like structures as we wander about in our daily lives?  I'm currently enjoying imagining there is no such thing as inertia, and instead it is always just the viscoelastic atmosphere sloshing at our backs.

Its great stuff.

It's not a magic crystal, it's a gigantic carbon arc lamp.  And the imagination of sceptimatic is not very good.  He rips off ideas from movies.

Well I don’t accept your definition of “conventional”.  I’ve decided that “conventional” means “a bit socialist”, and no so called dictionary is going to tell me otherwise.

So you can stick your conventional meaning of the word conventional where the sun don’t shine.

Of course it's capable of doing it. What do you think that fire is doing coming out the arse end of it?
It's expanding into the atmosphere and compressing it and the atmosphere is crushing rights back, creating  a platform against the thrust and following it for as long as that thrust is capable.
Interesting. This is a bit different from your previous stance on the subject. However, I disagree and my reasoning is presented in the video below.
