No, mikeman v2.0: it is YOU who is stupid enough to think that you can get to space just by lifting on your ankles; because that is EXACTLY what your nonsensical model of rocket thrust implies.
&, as you clearly cannot, it is therefore PROVEN FALSE.
So stop spamming us with it, ok?
Poko: stop trying to fudge; the gun is Object A; the bullet is Object B; the propellant sits between them.
When the propellant is ignited, it creates an interaction between Objects A & B, thus propelling Object B (the lesser of the 2 masses) out of the barrel.
But a rocket does NOT fire bullets.
So; to be analogous with a rocket, you must remove the bullet, Object B, from the equation, leaving only the gun, Object A, & the propellant, which now represents the exhaust of the rocket.
What other mass, then, will replace Object B in order to create an action/reaction pairing - as explicitly demanded by Newton 3 - & produce thrust, Helen Keller?
Answer that correctly & this whole ludicrous sham can end; answer it incorrectly & you demonstrate you have no understanding of even the most basic Newtonian physics & simply want to believe in sci-fi nonsense, like a good little brainwashed & proselytising Cultist.
As you said earlier: Take Your Pick...
Sock-arul: if you lied to me yesterday, does that make it true today?
Idiot.
Markjo: IGNORED for being a proven sock-puppeteer, troll & shameless liar.
Still; the JPL/NASA Thought-Police night-shift seems to have called in for duty now - so goodnight, Cultists; happy space-dreams...
& of course; to conclude: LOL!!!
