Title: Escape velocity and Speed of light?
Post by: E E K on June 21, 2020, 02:41:03 AM
Why is the speed of light constant in all frames of reference when the speed of light is much greater than the escape velocity of any celestial body except the black hole?
Any special reason.

Any special reason.

Simply because black holes are far more massive than most celestial bodies we are familiar with in our solar system. Bigger objects have larger escape velocities, and if it's big enough that velocity becomes greater than the speed of light.

In reality, there are bodies of all sizes in our galaxy and the universe. From dust to grains of sand to rocks and asteroids, small planets like Earth, large planets like Jupiter, small Suns like ours, to massive stars 800 times bigger than ours, to small black holes, to huge black holes like in the center of our galaxy.

A black hole is simply what we call ANY object that is so heavy it's escape velocity is greater than the speed of light. Once that happens it is now a black hole, as we can't see what goes on inside.

I don't know about E E K but Einstein does "claim that the speed of light varies with gravity" with gravitational potential to be more precise.

Quote from: J D Franson
Apparent correction to the speed of light in a gravitational potential (https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1367-2630/16/6/065008)
Einstein was the first to predict that the velocity of light would be reduced by a gravitational potential [37]. According to general relativity [38, 39], the speed of light c0 as measured in a global reference frame is given by

                                       (https://cdn.iopscience.com/images/1367-2630/16/6/065008/Full/njp494531eqn1.gif)

where c0 is the speed of light as measured in a local freely-falling reference frame. This reduction in the speed of light can be observed if a beam of light passes near a massive object such as the Sun, as illustrated in figure 1. The transit time from a distant planet or satellite to Earth can be measured as a function of the distance, D, of closest approach to the Sun and then compared to the transit time expected at a velocity of c0. The results from such experiments are in excellent agreement with the prediction of equation (1).

If the speed of light varies with gravity then it means the equation of escape velocity is wrong.

Light travels or follows the curvature of the black hole but so curvy that it can’t escape however it doesn’t mean that the speed of light varies with gravity. I would say it never slowed down when following the curvature.

If the speed of light varies with gravity then it means the equation of escape velocity is wrong.
Unless the mass of the object (asteroid, moon, planet or star) has an extremely large mass the escape velocity has nothing to the speed of light.

A measure of "extremely large mass" is the radius of the object compared to the the Schwarzschild radius for that same mass.
If all the objects mass is contained within the Schwarzschild radius it collapses into a "black hole".
Quote from: Wikipedia
Schwarzschild radius (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius)
The Schwarzschild radius is given as (https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/6680e9cae59537f42b415588530607e5369c8bc5) where G is the gravitational constant, M is the object mass, and c is the speed of light.
For the Earth, that radius is only 0.9 cm so any error in neglecting the speed of light is quite negligible.

Even for our Sun, that radius is only about 3 km but the radius of the Sun is 696,340 km so any error in neglecting the speed of light is still negligible.

But none of the Solar system objects are anywhere close to being "black holes" so forget the speed of light in calculating the escape velocity.

Yes, the speed of light in a vacuum is always the same to any observer.

Each observer in an inertial frame of reference will measure the same speed of light but the speed will not be the same when observed from another inertial frame of reference moving at a different velocity.

But why this hang-up over the speed of light in relation to escape velocity.

The escape velocity from the surface of the Earth is only about 11.2 km/s and c is about 300,000 km/s and
the escape velocity from the surface of the Sun is only about 618 km/sec still far less than c.

To get an escape velocity comparable with c you need a neutron star with escape velovities over 100,000 km/s,

So forget c when it comes to escape velocities from planets.

Escape velocity requires for the jet on the surface of earth = [2GM/R]^0.5

This means this jet breaks the gravitational environment of earth or free from its grasp.

Let there are two observers A and B. A is at rest on the surface of the earth while B is in the inertial frame, moves with constant speed relative to A. B stands by the jet inside moving frame. What would be the escape velocity of the jet relative A and B? Will it still be  [2GM/R]^0.5 for both?

VE = [2GM/R]1/2 is the escape velocity from a point R from the centre an of an object of mass, M.

The speed of light is irrelevant when R >> Schwarzschild Radius (RS=  2GM/c2).

The Schwarzschild Radii for the Earth = 8.7 mm (REarth = 6,371 km) and even for the Sun is only 3 km (RSun = 695,700 km).

Forget the velocity of light when talking about the Escape velocity!

I'm not really sure what you're asking here.

Escape velocity for an object isn't going to change no matter where you observe it or how fast any other observer is moving.

The whole business about escape velocity being higher than the speed of light is a bit of a misconception.   While that does happen at the Schwarzschild radius, the reason we can't see inside a black hole is that from our perspective, there's nothing happening inside.  Time has stopped, hence the term Event Horizon.

First check out one of the best videos on the internet:

Then why a pulse @ 05:50 in the video doesn’t escape the same way instead of bouncing up and down in between the two mirrors despite knowing that the velocity of pulse (300,000 km/sec) is way greater than the escape velocity as explained above.

I watched the video and nothing in there has anything to do with escape velocity.

I'm not sure I understand why you keep linking the speed of light and escape velocity but they have nothing to do with each other.

Where would the light bouncing up and down escape to?

The velocity of a pulse (video) is greater than the escape velocity of the aforementioned jet - Right
if yes, then shouldn't a pulse also be considered as escaped - Right

Escaped from what? 

Escape velocity is just a measure of how fast you have to move to get off of a large body like  a planet.  It's just the speed at which if you throw something up, it won't come back down.  That's all escape velocity is.

In a space craft there is no escape velocity. To have a measurable 'escape velocity' you have to have a large object it's trying to escape from, like a planet or a star or a black hole.

Question remains if a thing like a black hole is a celestial body. There should be one such thing at the center of our Milky Way galaxy but I haven’t seen it and I look all the time when the sky is clear. Our Milky Way galaxy is pretty big, i.e. approximately 100 000 light years in diameter, but I haven’t seen any black hole there at the center.
I have of course looked around the nearest star in our Milky Way galaxy, aside from the Sun, i.e. the star Proxima Centauri, which is about only 4.24 light years away. Experts say there is a black hole lurking there. Same experts suggest however, that it is nearly impossible to detect such a black hole aside from measuring its gravitational distortions on the light from visually nearby objects. Problem is that visually nearby objects, i.e. other stars, are many light years away. To be honest … I doubt black holes exist! http://heiwaco.tripod.com/moontravelb.htm . So their escape velocities are nothing to worry about.

Yeah, you're not going to see a black hole 50,000 light years away through everything in the way with the naked eye.  ::)

But infrared telescopes can see all the way there, and we can literally watch stars orbiting something extremely massive there.

(https://www.universetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Black-hole-workable.gif)

How about this, a radiation jet ejected from a supermassive black hole in another galaxy.  Can't see this with the naked eye either but that's why we have telescopes.

Escape from the gravity, which is almost zilch as compared to the jet with escape velocity in a similar frame on earth.

No resistance of gravity means – the frame doesn’t have control over the direction of speed of a pulse therefore it should move in the escape mode instead of bouncing up and down and get along with.

Light travels in the direction it was emitted.  In a space craft in space there would be very little gravity.

Light bounces off mirrors regardless if there is gravity or not.

Escape velocity has nothing to do with light bouncing off a mirror.

A pulse should go straight vertically up from the point from where a pulse was emitted but it doesn’t. This is what I am trying to explain.
Question: Would an apple fall if dropped from the ceiling of the said moving frame? What causes the said pulse to bounce in between the mirrors?

The mirror causes the photon to bounce back off of it.  An apple wouldn't fall from the ceiling of the space ship, but would certainly bounce off the ceiling back at you if you threw it.

Yeah, you're not going to see a black hole 50,000 light years away through everything in the way with the naked eye.  ::)

But infrared telescopes can see all the way there, and we can literally watch stars orbiting something extremely massive there.

How about this, a radiation jet ejected from a supermassive black hole in another galaxy.  Can't see this with the naked eye either but that's why we have telescopes.

Escaped from what?
Escape from the gravity, which is almost zilch as compared to the jet with escape velocity in a similar frame on earth.

No resistance of gravity means – the frame doesn’t have control over the direction of speed of a pulse therefore it should move in the escape mode instead of bouncing up and down and get along with.

Light travels in the direction it was emitted.  In a space craft in space there would be very little gravity.

Light bounces off mirrors regardless if there is gravity or not.

Escape velocity has nothing to do with light bouncing off a mirror.
A pulse should go straight vertically up from the point from where a pulse was emitted but it doesn’t. This is what I am trying to explain.
Question: Would an apple fall if dropped from the ceiling of the said moving frame? What causes the said pulse to bounce in between the mirrors?

The mirror causes the photon to bounce back off of it.  An apple wouldn't fall from the ceiling of the space ship, but would certainly bounce off the ceiling back at you if you threw it.
once a pulse is fired/emitted it actually escapes from the momentum of the frame just like a jet with escape velocity on ground escapes from the gravity on earth.

Question remains if a thing like a black hole is a celestial body. There should be one such thing at the center of our Milky Way galaxy but I haven’t seen it and I look all the time when the sky is clear. Our Milky Way galaxy is pretty big, i.e. approximately 100 000 light years in diameter, but I haven’t seen any black hole there at the center.
I have of course looked around the nearest star in our Milky Way galaxy, aside from the Sun, i.e. the star Proxima Centauri, which is about only 4.24 light years away. Experts say there is a black hole lurking there. Same experts suggest however, that it is nearly impossible to detect such a black hole aside from measuring its gravitational distortions on the light from visually nearby objects.

Yes, some stars get swallowed if they get too close, others orbit if they are far enough away.  Basic physics.

You can feel, whatever it is you feel when you see images like that.  Pity.

I am confused about a few things.

When you say the photon 'escapes from the momentum of the frame' what do you mean by frame?  This is on the spaceship yes?

Jets don't ever reach escape velocity, they are far too slow.  Earth's escape velocity is 25,020 mph and most jet airliners fly at 500 mph.

I think you are still confused what escape velocity actually is.  It's not simply getting off the ground, it's going so fast that you don't come back even if you turn off your engines.

Yes, spaceship, because laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames of reference. Spaceship, in which a vertical light clock is installed, moves with constant speed relative to a stationary observer on earth. A pulse is emitted at a velocity of about 300, 000 Km/Sec .

Don’t be confused.

Just compared the velocity of Jet (escape) on earth and a pulse in the spaceship.

When a jet attains a velocity of just 11.2 km/Sec. It doesn’t fall back on earth.

No, imagine the velocity of a pulse when emitted which is way greater than 11.2 km/sec

There is a huge difference between 11.2 Km/Sec and 300,000 Km/Sec (approx.).

Therefore to me, a pulse doesn’t go along with mirrors or spaceship but goes straight vertically up with its initial direction set by its emission.

Sorry my bad,
Its a rocket, not a jet.
For simplicity, let the said rocket is used for the purpose of covering a distance in between the two mirrors. Let it fired and in between the two mirrors, its speed is 11.2 km/sec or greater. Would this rocket escape from the spaceship or not? if yes then we are on the same page otherwise not.

Escape velocity for the Earth is 11.2 km/sec.

The escape velocity for a spaceship, say something the size of the Space Shuttle would only be 0.0000001420628 km/sec.

So yes, a rocket launched from a spaceship would not come back.

Top is relative, we just look at it that way because it makes sense to us.  Aliens might decide to draw their solar systems viewed from the side.  Who knows.

Objects only spin on one axis, so a spinning cloud of gas will rotate in one plane, and as it collapses to form stars and planets they will keep that rotation.

IMPOV – For symmetry, the solar system should have a spherical shape. It should have axial as well as orbital motion just like the earth which spins about its axis and orbits around the sun.

Spinning objects only spin around one axis, so a gas cloud is going to flatten into a disk, not stay a sphere as it rotates faster.  Anything that spins is going to stretch out along the axis of the spin.

It's the same mechanics that make water start to rotate when you drain it from your sink or bathtub.

And the solar system DOES have both of those.  It has an axial motion, the planets orbiting, and an orbital motion, it orbits around the center of the Milky Way.

I am not a stationary observer of the Universe. I am moving at great speed through the Universe doing my observations from Earth. Photons ejected from stars hit my eyes all the time, so I know that the stars exist.
But how do stars/suns orbit one black hole in the center of the Milky Way and what started that show? What stars orbit our Milky Way black hole? Does our Sun also orbit this black hole?

Yes, the Sun orbits the central black hole. Stars orbit black holes the same way they orbit anything else, gravity.
Thanks! So 4.6 billion years ago our Solar System was a wispy cloud of gas and dust that then collapsed into itself and became a spinning disk, where material collected at the center and nuclear fusion began, etc, etc. It sounds fantastic. But where did the gas and dust come from originally – before 4.6 billion years? I am told that there are millions of other Solar systems in our Milky Way galaxy. Do they all start out the same way?

From link:

Quote
Photon always travel at light speed "c" from the moment of its creation, therefore, it doesn’t have acceleration. A light signal bouncing between the two plates / mirrors in the light clock.
Thus how does a photon (either in particle or waveform) maintain its speed “c” again in the light clock after REFLECTION from the aforesaid mirrors repeatedly, Similarly, time still needed from its absorption to re-emission or using an auto-sensor to generate a new one?

I’m not exactly an expert on all this, but I’ll try.  Firstly quantum physics is weird as all hell.  Relativity is pretty weird too.  Neither are very intuitive.

It seems like you are thinking of photon “particles” almost like tiny solid objects and trying to apply logic from everyday experience to what happens on a quantum level.

This appears to be quite common, and maybe largely due to illustrations always showing photons, electrons, etc. as little balls.  But remember the illustrations are very vague representations.  They have to draw something on the diagrams after all.  But how do you properly draw some kind of wave-particle-energy-probability-WTF thing?

So, unless I misunderstood the question, you seem to think a photon should lose some velocity on reflection, much like a ball bouncing off a wall does?

It doesn’t.  There is some loss in light intensity when you average out lots of photons, but each individual photon is either reflected with no loss of energy or absorbed (and possibly re emitted).

Photons are massless and travel at full speed always, regardless of reference frame.

No, the Big Bang creation is religious Moses, Abraham, Jesus, Mohamed SF nonsense. I prefer the old Oden, Tor, Frö gods that normal people could see in nature on Earth. What is wrong with that? Nature has always existed.  It just changes with the seasons in spite of Greta T.

Nothing is wrong with anything you choose to believe.

But the Big Bang is science.

Moses, Jesus, Oden, and whatever else you believe in is religion.

There is a difference.

You can choose your religious beliefs.  If they conflict with science, that's your problem.  The Pope doesn't have a problem, and most people don't.  That you do is between you and  your Gods.

Yes. We discuss the escape velocity from a black hole in the Universe and I suggest such holes do not exist.

There are plenty pseudo-scientists around just inventing things for their particular interests. My favorite is Trofim Lysenko but Oppenheimer and Einstein are not far behind. Another criminal clown is Bazant who says that any structure T/B collapses by gravity into dust, when you drop the small top part T of it on the big, intact bottom part B. I have checked it many times and the result is that T always bounces on B but when CIA and FBI heard about it I stopped traveling to the USA. According Bazant bottom B becomes dust by top T dropping on it by gravity and, when top T finally hits the dust of B on the ground, it also becomes dust.
The ground hits T from below into dust.
US president GWB paid Bazant a fortune to say so 2001.

No, only reason I am here is that I am accused of not paying €1M to anyone showing me how to do manned space travel to the Moon, Mars and an asteroid (see top of page). To go to Mars or an asteroid your spacecraft incl. fuel have to accelerate and exceed escape speed 11.2 km/s (and stop on arrival and then take off again and return to Earth) and it is simply not possible. Basic physics as somebody says.

Somebody said that a black hole is simply what some call ANY object that is so heavy that it's escape velocity is greater than the speed of light. Once that happens it is now a black hole, as he can't see what goes on inside, he added.
I just pointed out that I have been watching our Solar System, one of million such systems in our Milky Way galaxy, for 70+ years and not seen the outside of black hole anywhere here or there.
Just to escape from Earth requires very high speed, and after that you cannot brake and stop anywhere. It seems we are all prisoners on Earth forever. So anybody suggesting he visited the Moon 1969 and pissed there (and then returned home) must be an alcoholic liar.

Ever heard of telescopes?  Ever seen thermal cameras?  Ever used binoculars?  These things are all real and exist, I suggest you try one.
Sorry, it is my fault. I live on the northern hemisphere with a sea view, so I can only see 70% of the Solar System from there with a telescope or binoculars. The black hole is maybe out of my sight. But let's face it. Shouldn't a black hole in the sky show up as a ... black hole ... in the sky ... sometimes? But No! It is too far away even using a telescope. It cannot be seen ... even using a telescope. Of course, remote stars/suns have been filmed orbiting this black hole in the sky - see above - but the orbits look funny. A joke, in my opinion.

What the hell are you ranting about?  You seem to understand that you shouldn’t be able to see a black hole, yet you’re whinging that you can’t see it, so it’s a joke.

That’s some grade A science denial.

Somebody said that a black hole is simply what some call ANY object that is so heavy that it's escape velocity is greater than the speed of light. Once that happens it is now a black hole, as he can't see what goes on inside, he added.
I just pointed out that I have been watching our Solar System, one of million such systems in our Milky Way galaxy, for 70+ years and not seen the outside of black hole anywhere here or there.
,
Since there's no black hole anywhere near the Solar System that's not surprising. ;D
There is one about 1000 light years from hear.

Quote from: Heiwa
Just to escape from Earth requires very high speed, and after that you cannot brake and stop anywhere. It seems we are all prisoners on Earth forever. So anybody suggesting he visited the Moon 1969 and pissed there (and then returned home) must be an alcoholic liar.
Totally incorrect but irrelevant in this thread.
Thanks! It is my fault. The black holes were too far away from me to see them.
But NO! I looked. And saw nothing.
You sound like an idiot. Telling people seeing non-existing things. Why? How much are you paid for it?

Well, I suppose since the orbits "look funny" to you I'll have to take your word for it rather than astronomers who spend their entire lives studying such things.  ::)

Maybe you should try to understand things before you just start denying them.  If you think a black hole 50,000 light years away is going to show up as a hole in the sky, you really need to educate yourself.  At least UNDERSTAND something before trying to deny it's existence. ALl you are doing is showing you have zero idea what you're talking about.

Please, I don't deny things. You say there is a black hole in the center of the Milky Way galaxy (around which stars/suns orbit) and that there are other black holes in centers of billion other galaxies like the Milky Way in the Universe but you don't provide any evidence for these billion black holes. Only a stupid video! So I simply don't believe you. You suggest I should use a telescope to see this black hole, etc, etc. I have done it for 70 years! But  suddenly it is too small to be seen according you. I thought a black hole would swallow all light around it to be a little bigger so it could be seen. Like stars. Orbiting the black hole. But I haven't seen any stars orbiting anything in the sky.

You don't deny things?  I could spend all day listing things you deny and don't believe in.

You never asked for evidence of the billion other black holes, and now you deny the exist because you're too lazy to look them up or even ask about them now.  Even if I bothered to find evidence, you would just simply not believe me some more.

I presented evidence of stars orbiting a black hole, and you can call it stupid all you like, and deny that it's real, then deny that you deny anything.  Seriously? 

You suggest I should use a telescope to see this black hole, etc, etc. I have done it for 70 years! But  suddenly it is too small to be seen according you.

Yes, it's too small to be seen with the naked eye, I said that more than once.  It's also too dim to see in visible light, which is why they use an infrared telescope. Why do you have such a hard time understanding this?  You can't just look at it from your back yard, you need a high power infrared telescope.

I thought a black hole would swallow all light around it to be a little bigger so it could be seen. Like stars. Orbiting the black hole. But I haven't seen any stars orbiting anything in the sky.

How many times do you need it explained to you, you can NOT look up at the sky in your backyard and see stars 50,000 light years away that are only visible in the infrared.  Stars that it took 10 years of observations to see moving too, so yeah, you aren't going to look up and see them circling around.  Seriously.  How many times do you need to be told to understand?

Things you can't directly see can still exists.  No astronomers call YOU up to ask if you saw something in the sky before they publish it, because if Heiwa can't look up and stare at it, it must not exist!  ::)

Yes, unless your telescope is the size of planet Earth it is too small! The Event Horizon Telescope Array was used to "photograph" the black hole at the centre of the  a massive galaxy, Messier 87, over 50 million light years away.

The Katie Bouman picture is black with an orange/white thing in the center (light from behind?) with a black dot in the middle of it. She says it is a Black Hole.

The North Pole is very important to spot Black Holes from. Great view in all directions. But today the Sun is shining all the time there so difficult to spot Black Holes. Better go Sun bathing. >40C in the Sun. Great place.

My principal interest is safety at sea. Seafarers make up stories what happens there. They watch the sky all the time since thousands of years and no black holes have been reported. I use critical thinking to check the info. So I got interested in safety in space and human space travel. You know plenty stupid people – cosmokrauts and asstroclowns – say they have flown in the Universe. A powerful rocket catapulted them away from Earth into the Universe at high speed (topic) but only evidence was noise and smoke at take-off. The rest was all lies! Reason is that all space trips are one way only! There is no way to brake, return and land on Earth coming from space. It is basic physics.

Uh, once more for the tenth time... there are no black holes visible with the naked eye.  You keep being astounded nobody has seen one, but clearly have no idea what you're talking about.  Wondering why people don't see giant black circles in the sky all the time just proves you really are clueless when it comes to astronomy.  Read a book.

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2019/04/first-picture-black-hole-revealed-m87-event-horizon-telescope-astrophysics/ says:
Using a telescope the size of the planet, astronomers have captured the first image of this space oddity - a black hole. Here's why that matters.
More than 50 million light-years away, in the heart of a giant elliptical galaxy called Messier 87, a gargantuan beast is devouring anything that strays too near. Stars, planets, gas, and dust—not even light escapes the monster’s grasp once it crosses a threshold called the event horizon.
Today, scientists unveiled an image of that object, a supermassive black hole containing the same mass as 6.5 billion suns. Resembling a circular void surrounded by a lopsided ring of light, this landmark image is the world’s first glimpse of a black hole’s silhouette, a picture that creeps right up to the inescapable edge of the black hole’s maw.
The new image is the stunning achievement of the Event Horizon Telescope project, a global collaboration of more than 200 scientists using an array of observatories scattered around the world, from Hawaii to the South Pole. Combined, this array acts like a telescope the size of Earth, and it was able to collect more than a petabyte of data while staring at M87’s black hole in April 2017. It then took two years for scientists to assemble the mugshot.


Well, this gargantuan beast didn’t devour the petabyte of data making a picture of a black hole.  I feel sorry for people making up this garbage.

The hand is an IR image. Real

Using a telescope the size of the planet, astronomers have captured the first image of this space oddity - a black hole. Here's why that matters.
More than 50 million light-years away, in the heart of a giant elliptical galaxy called Messier 87, a gargantuan beast is devouring anything that strays too near. Stars, planets, gas, and dust—not even light escapes the monster’s grasp once it crosses a threshold called the event horizon.
Today, scientists unveiled an image of that object, a supermassive black hole containing the same mass as 6.5 billion suns. Resembling a circular void surrounded by a lopsided ring of light, this landmark image is the world’s first glimpse of a black hole’s silhouette, a picture that creeps right up to the inescapable edge of the black hole’s maw.
The new image is the stunning achievement of the Event Horizon Telescope project, a global collaboration of more than 200 scientists using an array of observatories scattered around the world, from Hawaii to the South Pole. Combined, this array acts like a telescope the size of Earth, and it was able to collect more than a petabyte of data while staring at M87’s black hole in April 2017. It then took two years for scientists to assemble the mugshot.


Well, this gargantuan beast didn’t devour the petabyte of data making a picture of a black hole.  I feel sorry for people making up this garbage.

Yet again, another post where you do nothing but insult the people doing the work.  At least this time you didn't complain it was a "girl" doing the work, which somehow invalidates it?  :-\

Did you really think the black hole was going to suck the data right off the hard drive, or are you just trolling the thread?

Nobody has seen the Horsehead Nebula with their naked eye, so I guess you think that's fake too?
(https://i.imgur.com/rfqxcex.jpg)

The above image has been manipulated to look aesthetically pleasing to humans and does not represent reality

Do you admit that the nebula is a real object in space, but are somehow upset that people take pictures of it using advanced imaging techniques?

Or do you think you think hands also don't exist, and don't emit heat because of 'manipulated' pictures like this one?

(https://i.imgur.com/BwaYyUy.jpg)

Both the images above are real.  Or do you dispute that?

The hand is an IR image. Real

The nebula was tweaked to assign different colour values to certain elements to help our primitive eyes differentiate between them such as Sulfur and Hydrogen which would otherwise both appear reddish. Nebula is real but depiction is not

And what's the point of that challenge, to prove that we can make fake images of things? That's nothing new. So what?

The point is not to trust what you see on the internet. And not to display pretty pictures as some kind of evidence of existence. Yes it may exist but not like you show

Well, I suppose since the orbits "look funny" to you I'll have to take your word for it rather than astronomers who spend their entire lives studying such things.  ::)

Maybe you should try to understand things before you just start denying them.  If you think a black hole 50,000 light years away is going to show up as a hole in the sky, you really need to educate yourself.  At least UNDERSTAND something before trying to deny it's existence. ALl you are doing is showing you have zero idea what you're talking about.
Please, I don't deny things. You say there is a black hole in the center of the Milky Way galaxy (around which stars/suns orbit) and that there are other black holes in centers of billion other galaxies like the Milky Way in the Universe but you don't provide any evidence for these billion black holes. Only a stupid video! So I simply don't believe you.

You don't deny things?  I could spend all day listing things you deny and don't believe in.

You never asked for evidence of the billion other black holes, and now you deny the exist because you're too lazy to look them up or even ask about them now.  Even if I bothered to find evidence, you would just simply not believe me some more.

I presented evidence of stars orbiting a black hole, and you can call it stupid all you like, and deny that it's real, then deny that you deny anything.  Seriously? 

You suggest I should use a telescope to see this black hole, etc, etc. I have done it for 70 years! But  suddenly it is too small to be seen according you.

Yes, it's too small to be seen with the naked eye, I said that more than once.  It's also too dim to see in visible light, which is why they use an infrared telescope. Why do you have such a hard time understanding this?  You can't just look at it from your back yard, you need a high power infrared telescope.

I thought a black hole would swallow all light around it to be a little bigger so it could be seen. Like stars. Orbiting the black hole. But I haven't seen any stars orbiting anything in the sky.

How many times do you need it explained to you, you can NOT look up at the sky in your backyard and see stars 50,000 light years away that are only visible in the infrared.  Stars that it took 10 years of observations to see moving too, so yeah, you aren't going to look up and see them circling around.  Seriously.  How many times do you need to be told to understand?

Things you can't directly see can still exists.  No astronomers call YOU up to ask if you saw something in the sky before they publish it, because if Heiwa can't look up and stare at it, it must not exist!  ::)

If you go to Australia you can look up and have a good view at the star system HR 6819. It is visible and its orbiting a stellar mass black hole. Only 1100ish light years away from us.

Congratulations, you discovered that we have to make judgment calls when presented with information. Again, nothing new here.

To me, that means you should collect more information when you are not sure.

For you I guess it means you can simply decide not to believe anything.

If my Dad says we are out of Coke and I should get more, I just do it. Sure, he could be lying to me? But why should I search the entire house for hidden Coke just to make sure, and even then, maybe he buried some in a hole in the backyard?

If I see a picture of a black hole that researchers spent a year collecting data for and processing and published in a peer reviewed journal, I don't think it's OBVIOUSLY a scam and I can't believe it.

There is being skeptical, and then there is being in denial.

So yes, that's a picture of a black hole.  I trust those researchers to know what they are doing more than I trust Heiwa's knowledge of black holes and cutting edge astrophysics and imaging equipment!

Thanks for the picture of a Black Hole that a girl, Ms Katie Bouman, found in her computer one day.
"That girl" was a 29 year-old computer scientist and she did the computer processing needed to convert the enormous amount of data into an image.


Yes, but you would suppose you don't need a girl to convert the data into an image. And she didn't know how the data became a picture. And the image doesn't look like a Black Hole. It looks like something else.

How do you know what a black hole is supposed to look like?
The Katie Bouman picture is black with an orange/white thing in the center (light from behind?) with a black dot in the middle of it. She says it is a Black Hole.
I just suggest it cannot be a photo of a Black Hole! Lit up from behind??????

Precisely, you have no idea what a black hole would look like. So why even "suggest" that it is not based upon your zero knowledge of what a black hole should look like?
That seems to be your MO: Just because you don't possess an expertise in something, you conjure up something based upon your limited knowledge and then allege you are correct. Otherwise known as delusional dunning-kruger syndrome.

Why not? Astronomers have been taking pictures of celestial objects (galaxies) millions of light years away for near a century.

So I simply suggest that you are an ignoramus.

50 million light years away i's right next door in astronomical term's.
The Andromeda Galaxy can be seen with the unaided eyes but is 2.537 million light years away.

But you seem to know nothing about anything so we'd expect you to be ignorant about astronomy as well.

No, I only know young Ms. Bouman. Her 100+ astronomer colleagues collecting data for her magic picture of a black hole in space are unknown to me. Media would not name them. It was only Ms. B that suddenly found the image in her computer. But there were other scientific comments.

"The data is like an incomplete puzzle set," said team member Monika Moscibrodzka, an astronomer at Radboud University. "We only see pieces of the real true image, and then we have to fill in the gaps of the missing pieces."

"What we see in the image is the shadow of the black hole's rim—known as the event horizon, or the point of no return—set against the luminous accretion disk," Gueth told AFP.

The unprecedented image—so often imagined in science and science fiction —- has been analysed in six studies co-authored by 200 experts from 60-odd institutions and published Wednesday in Astrophysical Journal Letters.

"I never thought that I would see a real one in my lifetime," said CNRS astrophysicist Jean-Pierre Luminet, author in 1979 of the first digital simulation of a black hole.

"We were desperately waiting for the data from the South Pole Telescope, which—due to extreme weather conditions during the southern hemisphere winter—didn't arrive until six months later," recalled Helger Rottmann from the Max Planck Institute. It would take another year, however, to piece together the data into an image.

"To be absolutely sure, we did the work four times with four different teams," said Gueth.

"We are looking at a region we have never looked at before, that we cannot really imagine being there," said Heino Falcke, chair of the EHT Science Council.

Etc, etc.

No, I only know young Ms. Bouman. Her 100+ astronomer colleagues collecting data for her magic picture of a black hole in space are unknown to me. Media would not name them. It was only Ms. B that suddenly found the image in her computer. But there were other scientific comments.

Hm, don't you agree that this American HERO Buzz Aldrin, second (LOL) on the Moon 1969, sounded like a drunken sailor, when he explained about pissing there. (There was no loo in his spacecraft!) So I consider all other people suggesting they have been in space to be Buzz clones. And now they are joined by astronomers suggesting they are taking pictures of celestial bodies (black holes) 50 million light years away. I simply suggest Katie made the photo herself pissing on Earth to become famous. I think she is not credible.

You have to concentrate and not drink too much alcohol and study my findings.
This black hole image involved 100's of astronomers incl. some at the South Pole with their telescopes of all kind taking pictures of the Universe and the center of a galaxy 55 million light years away. Then plenty people tried to put these pictures together and ... MAGIC ... Ms. Bouman got the bits right. It was checked four times but it was Ms. Bouman that got it right. All alone.
She just added some missing pieces and ... a black hole appeared.

Do you 'see' the physical object in andromeda casting the light or only the light itself...

Everything you see is because photons of light hit your eyes, technically you see nothing but light, never the actual object, ever.

So yes, you see Andromeda the same way you see your own hands, or any other physical object.

You can find another dozen news articles about her involvement and how she became internet famous about it.

Here is one how internet trolls are attacking her.  Sound familiar?

All you have, are insulting and ridiculing sources and the people involved.  That's it, your entire argument is you just making fun of people and making up lies about women. Just you and your made up stories.

You have zero evidence, just your inability to understand or accept anything. I'd love to see you in an actual court, you would be hauled off for contempt in about 30 seconds and wind up in a psychiatric hospital.

If you don't understand something do you always assume it's fake? Seems to be a pattern for you. The epitome of Dunning-Kruger at full strength. And once again, you have your facts wrong and suggestions unfounded. Not to mention you're being ridiculous.

Case in point, your idiotic statement: "It was checked four times but it was Ms. Bouman that got it right. All alone. She just added some missing pieces and ... a black hole appeared."

You have literally no idea what you're even commenting on:

"Bouman led the development of a computer program called CHIRP, or Continuous High-resolution Image Reconstruction using Patch priors. CHIRP helps account for differences between when data arrived at telescopes in difference places on Earth, fill in gaps between the telescopes' coverage, and single out the black hole data from everything else in that patch of sky. The program made it possible to create the images which another program (designed by Mareki Honma and his team) stitched together into the final picture that awed everyone on April 10. Her CHIRP team was actually one of three teams working to turn the data into images -- a total of about 40 people, led by Bouman, Andrew Chael, Kazunori Akiyama, Michael D. Johnson, Jose L. Gomez, and Sara Issaoun.

Those 40 people spent several years working on just one aspect of a project which involved around 200 people from 60 research institutions in 18 countries. It turns out that combining 8 radio observatories around the world to make the next best thing to a 10,000 km-wide antenna, then processing all of that data into an image of the event horizon of a black hole 54 million light years away, is a big, complex, collaborative project."

Topic is an image of a celestial object with a diameter of say 10 km which is 5.2 x 1020 km away (55 million light years) at the center of a galaxy in our Universe. 200 astronomers of multiple telescopes on Earth have taken plenty photos of this far away object but none have been published. It is suggested that the telescopes at different locations on Earth can jointly take photos of this object so that a composite image can be created using bits and pieces of available footage. Missing bits have also been added during several years. The final image is black (the background color of the Universe) with a hole with a black dot in the middle of the hole. The hole is illuminated. The rim of the hole is a shadow of some sort and the light is coming from somewhere. What the dot in the middle is, is not clear. It is suggested that celestial object in the image is a Black Hole. If you try to find out more of the history of this image, you are told that it just popped up on a computer screen of a poor girl part of the team. I just suggest the image is simple fakery and that the girl is a fraud. Reason I do it, is that I don’t believe Black Holes exist in the Universe.

Well, there are plenty original footage of this big, strange object, we are told, so let's see part of it. I simply suggest it doesn't exist. Anyway, Black Holes are not 40 billion km across. Maybe it is a quasar?  A quasar is a compact (sic) region in vacuum space surrounding a super massive Black Hole and emitting enormous amounts of electromagnetic energy/light, as mass from the core of a surrounding galaxy. Under the influence of the Black Hole's gravity it  falls onto its accretion disc. Sounds magic. Let's see some photos of it!

How would YOU know the size of the super-massive M87 Black Hole? The size of a black hole is taken as the size of its event horizon.
Quote
Here’s How Big the M87 Black Hole is Compared to the Earth (https://futurism.com/the-byte/big-m87-black-hole-compared-the-earth)
Pale Black Dot
On Wednesday, a team of scientists from around the world released the first-ever directly-observed image of the event horizon of a black hole.

The black hole, M87*, is found within the constellation Virgo — and as the webcomic XKCD (https://xkcd.com/2135/) illustrated, it’s as big as our entire solar system.
(https://wp-assets.futurism.com/2019/04/m87_black_hole_size_comparison.png)

Stellar Giant
The gigantic black hole, not counting the giant rings of trapped light orbiting it, is about 23.6 billion miles (38 billion kilometers) across, according to Science News.

Meanwhile, the Earth is just 7,917 miles in diameter — meaning our planet wouldn’t even be a drop in the bucket of the giant, black void. Based Futurism’s calculations, it would take just over 2.98 million Earths lined up in a row to span the length of M87*.

OK, so the celestial object observed by plenty astronomers on Earth at the center of a galaxy 55 million light years away from Earth is bigger than our Solar System (Sun + planets) and ... it is a Black Hole. Far away. No evidence of anything except a composite image. But there is another Black Hole much closer! At the center of our galaxy the Milky Way. Only 25000 light years away? 2200 times closer! But no photos of it are available. I wonder why. Any ideas?
Shouldn't we start exploring our own galaxy first?

Far away. No evidence of anything except a composite image. But there is another Black Hole much closer! At the center of our galaxy the Milky Way. Only 25000 light years away? 2200 times closer! But no photos of it are available. I wonder why. Any ideas?
Shouldn't we start exploring our own galaxy first?
We are but Sag A* is far smaller with a mass of a bit over 4.1 × 106 M (solar masses).

Not only that but Sag A*, being in our own Galaxy is hidden by stars and dust clouds around the Galactic centre.

Here's Why Scientists Did Not Take Image Of Sagittarius A*, Black Hole At The Heart Of Milky Way (https://www.techtimes.com/articles/241299/20190413/heres-why-scientists-did-not-take-image-of-sagittarius-a-black-hole-at-the-heart-of-milky-way.htm)

Ok, we discuss the super massive Messier 87 Black Hole. That Black Hole itself has a diameter of only 10 km but its gravity force is so strong that it cleans away everything within 37 billion km, the size of our Solar System. Of course you cannot see it or take a photo of it BUT due to MAGIC the vacuum void around it lights up and becomes visible. And photos can be taken! And according to Ms. K. Bouman:
 "We developed ways to generate synthetic data and used different algorithms and tested blindly to see if we can recover an image," she says. "We didn't want to just develop one algorithm. We wanted to develop many different algorithms that all have different assumptions built into them. If all of them recover the same general structure, then that builds your confidence."
This is 101% standard pseudoscience.
The NSF photo is 200 billion km from right to left, up down. Nothing else to be seen than a point in the center hole illuminated from … ? It is a composite of millions of photos taken from Earth.

Re the the Sagittarius A*, the Black Hole located in our Milky Way galaxy 25,000 light-years away from Earth, it is 2200 times closer, but it doesn't mean it's a better subject to photograph, we are told. There are too many cosmic objects in between the two with billions of stars, planets, and dust floating in the same flat disk of the Milky Way.
This is 102% pseudoscience.
But people on Earth believe it. Some are well paid to promote the propaganda and … I just laugh about them. They are like Mr. Buzz Aldrin, PhD MIT 1963 that invented the human space travel hoax. He arrived at the Moon summer 1969, pissed on it … and never had a real job since.
Ms. Bouman! Welcome to the pseudo science club of fame. It is a big hole of nobodies. Many become alcoholics. What else to do there?

The diameter of a black hole is taken as the diameter of its event horizon. There is no way that you can determine anything inside the event horizon.
Anyway, Black Holes are not 40 billion km across.
How would YOU know the size of the super-massive M87 Black Hole? The size of a black hole is taken as the size of its event horizon.

The gigantic black hole, not counting the giant rings of trapped light orbiting it, is about 23.6 billion miles (38 billion kilometers) across, according to Science News.

I've looked at your web page and it's explains things about as well as the Time Cube website, although with slightly less annoying fonts and colors. A big list of conspiracy theories is not very compelling in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence. And reality.

The radius of the event horizon is The Schwarzschild Radius (http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/Astro/blkhol.html) radius for that mass

An event horizon according astronomers is a boundary beyond which events in the Universe cannot affect an observer.

Say that the event is a Black Hole in the Universe and that the Black Hole has an event horizon. So beyond it, the Black Hole cannot affect an observer, i.e. any observer hasn't a clue what is inside this event horizon.

Now some astronomers suggest that there is Black Hole in a far away galaxy and that its diameter is greater than our Solar System, i.e. it is pretty big. Same astronomers have taken 2D photos of it from Earth and the result is a composite of photos that has become the 2D image we have seen. A girl made the image using some fancy software.

The image itself shows something that is 10 times bigger than our Solar System. It is mostly Black with a Hole in the middle with a Black Dot in the Hole. The Hole is illuminated around the Dot. Outside of the Hole is black. No stars, etc, are seen. The diameter of the black Dot is bigger than our Solar System, I am told. I can see it on the image. The astronomers say the Dot is a Black Hole.

But where is the event horizon?

The volume of the Dot must be enormous BUT it is solid! And its gravity is big so the escape velocity from the Dot is greater than the speed of light. That is why the Dot is black. No light escapes.

It is MAGIC. But relax! God Allah Jahve made the Dot once upon a time.

Your definition of an event horizon is wrong.  An event horizon is the point where the gravitational pull of a black hole prevents light from escaping.

A Black Hole certainly CAN affect an observer, it will still pull you inside.  That's quite an effect. You just can't see inside.

A radio telescope is pointed at the sky. It collects lights of long-wavelength or radio waves, which lie in the very specific part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

We know light travels in a straight direction unless reflected. Let sun spread its light evenly in all directions. Earth receives a very small fraction of that sunlight as most of the sunlight is in the spacelike region (unable for us to see) and their direction of traveling keeps them away further in the spacelike region of lightcone - True. 

How do we see the full image of the sun when a very small portion of the sunlight (For simplicity, say circle of earth’s diameter) reaches the earth?

The same is applied to the formation of the above image of the black hole. Lots of questions arise about the reception of light, their timing, covering an area in the space, etc via radio telescopes.

How do you see a light bulb, when only a tiny fraction of it's light reaches your eyes?

If you are standing 6 meters away from a light bulb, your 2mm iris is only receiving 1/100,000,000th of the light from that light bulb.  How do you see it?

Same way you see the Sun, both objects are bright, and our eyes can literally detect single photons.  They are very sensitive!

Also keep in mind how bright the Sun is.  It's emitting 10^45 photons a second. A small portion of that number is still very large!  Large enough that if you were to look directly at the sun, each eye would be receiving 18.61 quadrillion photons a second. More than enough to see it, and burn your retinas if you stare too long.

Radio and visual light telescopes work the same way, except they have an even better advantage that you can leave them running for hours or even days to collect enough light to make a picture. I've done long exposure pictures of nebula myself, so I know this works.

So there are no questions about being able to see objects.  A light bulb, the Sun, or a distant black hole.  It's just a matter of using sensitive enough equipment.

The image we see is made up of either direct or reflected light from the object we look at. On earth, we see things around us due to reflection. There are direct sources of light in space such as stars and indirect sources such as reflection from the moon etc.

Light travels in a straight direction with a speed of about 300, 000 km/sec, not just in all directions randomly. The diameter of the earth is negligible as compared to the size of whole universe, therefore, a radio telescope catches a very small fraction of the light of space, including direct or indirect interference even if the diameter of its dish (parabolic reflector) is equal to the diameter of the earth.
 
We see a vast image of the space by our tiny eyes therefore the question remains how scientifically? The human eye is not the source of emitting light towards the object. It is the light that comes to our eyes straight from the object we see either directly or indirectly. The following diagram may help what I said if I'm not wrong.

Have you gone through one of my posts which shows a light clock can be designed in an infinite number of ways?  This includes anti-time dilation light clock, time contraction light clocks, and time dilation clocks. No time dilation means no event horizon. No event horizon means no black hole - simple. I was just arguing that it is impossible to gather lights for portraying BH.

Thanks for the picture of a Black Hole that a girl, Ms Katie Bouman, found in her computer one day. I describe the event at my website - http://heiwaco.tripod.com/moontravelb.htm#BH . You don't really believe that?
I think it was a selfie! LOL!

I just suggest the image is simple fakery and that the girl is a fraud.

What is your problem with women scientists, or do you just have a problem with women in general?

Would you have believed the image was real if only men worked on it?

Let me try to put it in nautical terms that you might understand.  Modern submarines are so quiet and stealthy that sonar operators say that they look for the hole in the ocean. That is, the ocean tends to be fairly noisy, so if you can find a quiet spot that's moving around, it must be a submarine.  In the same way, they aren't directly imaging the black hole.  Rather, they're imaging the cloud that happens to have a hole in it.

Anyway, Black Holes are just fantasy. They do not exist at all … except between women legs.
And between your ears.

Time dilation has been shown experimentally for 50 years now, in many experiments and in hundreds of satellites and on the ISS.

It's very real.

I have no idea what your anti-time dilation light clock idea is, but unless you build it and show it defies current the laws of physics, it's just a hypothesis.

Do you even know what a quasar is?  Why do you think you should see one?  Do you just make things up as you type them?


Thanks for asking. I describe quasars at my website based on info provided by astronomers. They should be seen adjacent to Black Holes. See also - http://milesmathis.com/black4.pdf
"the most dishonest scientists love to hide out in data holes, where they can say whatever they wish and get famous for nothing".

A perfect example of where you get your dunning-kruger syndrome from: Miles Mathis. Miles has quite a number of thoughts on various topics. Here's just a few to give you a sense of his (and your) credibility, or lack thereof:

PAPER UPDATE, added 6/6/20, The George Floyd Killing was Faked. I have added brief comments from another reader at the bottom.
PAPER UPDATE, added 5/20/20, Obama's Genealogy. See p. 3, where I show you a few new things.
NEW PAPER, added 3/14/20, The Coronavirus Hoax. A guest writer gets us started on this one.
NEW PAPER, added 2/19/20, The 22 July Massacre in Norway was Fake, part 5. A guest writer from Norway continues my 4-parter on Anders Breivik, discovering some tasty additions.
NEW PAPER, added 12/13/19, Yes, Diana Faked Her Death. You always knew it. This is probably the closest thing to proof you are going to get.
NEW PAPER, added 11/15/19, The Assassination of Malcolm X was Staged. Also analysis of Willie McGee, William Faulkner, Madame Chiang Kai-Shek, Bella Abzug, and others.   
PAPER UPDATE, added 5/29/19, Abe Lincoln. See p. 25, where we find more evidence Lincoln's death was faked.

It goes on like this for page after page after page.

It's good to know where you get your astronomy and physics knowledge from.

I haven’t gone through their experiment in detail but either they exaggerated or might missing something very important.

Time dilation may or may not be real but the way it was modeled mathematically is wrong. Einstein derived his time dilation equation with the help light clock, which consists of two mirrors in between which a pulse was bounces.

First of all, there is no such "standard light clock" either invented by Einstein or someone else as shown.  You can design your own. Just play with the number of mirrors and angles.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Time_dilation/Archive_2018#Is_the_Einstein%E2%80%99s_light_clock_shown_in_article_standard?

The rhombus shape anti-time dilation clock consists of four mirrors. Time is dilated in the first half cycle while contracted in the last half cycle. However, after the completion of one cycle, it ticks at the same rate with the clock used for observation, either moving wrt the stationary observer or at rest as both dilation and contraction cancel each other.

Your affection for Miles speaks volumes about your personal credibility. Based upon that partial list I provided of his "work" I can't imagine he can spot much of anything. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. He's got a hundred more papers of his "findings" that are just as asinine and insane as "Abe Lincoln faked his death..."

Here's a full list of his insanity:

Whatever, I just linked to Miles about space. My expertise is safety, i.e. probability of no accident. Humans have no chance and nothing to do in space, so the NASA human space program is fraud since the beginning in the 1950's. But thanks to Fake News media NASA has got away with its Hollywood show. It is similar to this fake image of a Black Hole >50 million light years away.

Yes. I also have a family and they all agree with my findings. Some time ago our town was visited by some fake asstronuts and we went and talked to them. Of course they could not explain anything about returning back from space. They were simple liars/actors.

Re A-bombs I don't know anybody that disagree with me. A-bombs are just propaganda since 1945. But in Japan and USA it is illegal to say so. I happened to know people in East Germany helping Stalin building fake A-bombs! I also know people from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I have worked in and visited Japan many times.

I am famous for having shown how M/S Estonia sank 1994. That's when my fame started. I wrote about it in the biggest Swedish daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter. I operated similar ships and it was easy to show full scale that visors do not fall off ships. I have attended many public meetings about it in Scotland, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, France, etc, and all agree with me except the governments 'experts' suggesting that the visor fell off with nobody hearing it. The Swedish Navy blew off the visor from the wreck after sinking at the bottom of the sea. I happen to have done my military service in that shit Navy 1965/70. Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter will not mention my name since. That newspaper just publish Fake News today. I feel sorry for the editor & Co.

Re 911 - same thing. I have made public speeches about it in the USA - skyscrapers do not collapse into dust from top down by gravity after Arabs have attacked - and invited FBI to learn something but then I was stopped. Just study my website. I report it all there.

Re fusion on Earth the ITER scandal is still going on down the road from me. Some clowns are spending € billions there saying that 2037 the plant will start producing clean energy out of deuterium and tritium, bla, bla, bla.

Who were these astronauts that you just so happened to bump into and strike up a conversation with?


Re A-bombs I don't know anybody that disagree with me.

So? We humans tend to run inside our own bubbles of beliefs. It means nothing that you run with like minded people of ignorance. Evidence of nothing.


A-bombs are just propaganda since 1945. But in Japan and USA it is illegal to say so.

I don't know about Japan, but it's not illegal to disbelieve in A-Bombs and say so. Right there you have fabricated a lie.

I happened to know people in East Germany helping Stalin building fake A-bombs!

Stalin faking military might is no proof that A-Bombs don't exist. Probably more proof to the contrary. Why would Stalin try to bother to match western might/bluster if he thought the might didn't exist?

I also know people from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I have worked in and visited Japan many times.

So? And again, meeting some random people who say something about whatever is not evidence of anything.
You really have no idea what evidence is, do you?

A cursory search around the subject that brought you "fame" reveals that you're just another conspiracy theorist nobody.

"One of Bjorkman’s comrades in arms is the Swedish-German author and lawyer Henning Witte who, in 1999, released a book titled “MS Estonia Was Sunk: New Facts and Theories on Estoniagate.” Witte repeated Bjorkman’s argument and asserted that the ferry might have been hit by a Russian torpedo fired from a submarine in order to thwart the export of sensitive military technology. Today, Witte runs White TV, one of the most prolific channels for the dissemination of conspiracy theories in Sweden, ranging from 9/11 to 5G and the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, mind control of Swedish politics."

Your best argument: Apollo = Where do they urinate = I can't figure it out = Must be fake. That's about the depth of any of your arguments/observations. Your ignorance is overwhelming across the board.

All info there is correct. I have checked all myself on the spot.

Self checking your ignorance is hardly an argument for anything credible. It's a closed loop of stupidity.

How about a new Heiwa Challenge? I'll give you $1 million dollars if you can show that anyone has hired you based upon your website and all that your conspiratorial lunacy entails.
No, the present five Heiwa Challenges - http://heiwaco.tripod.com/chall.htm - are OK. No winners.
And I don't need your $1 million. I have enough already.

So you don't accept the challenge? If so, I think it's safe to say zero people have employed your services since you went over the edge with half-baked conspiracies. I mean who in their right mind would hire you to ensure the safety of a bathtub let alone a merchant ship seeing that you can't even wrap your head around what is mass and what is weight?

I am famous for having shown how M/S Estonia sank 1994. That's when my fame started. I wrote about it in the biggest Swedish daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter. I operated similar ships and it was easy to show full scale that visors do not fall off ships. I have attended many public meetings about it in Scotland, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, France, etc, and all agree with me except the governments 'experts' suggesting that the visor fell off with nobody hearing it. The Swedish Navy blew off the visor from the wreck after sinking at the bottom of the sea. I happen to have done my military service in that shit Navy 1965/70. Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter will not mention my name since. That newspaper just publish Fake News today. I feel sorry for the editor & Co.

A cursory search around the subject that brought you "fame" reveals that you're just another conspiracy theorist nobody.

"One of Bjorkman’s comrades in arms is the Swedish-German author and lawyer Henning Witte who, in 1999, released a book titled “MS Estonia Was Sunk: New Facts and Theories on Estoniagate.” Witte repeated Bjorkman’s argument and asserted that the ferry might have been hit by a Russian torpedo fired from a submarine in order to thwart the export of sensitive military technology. Today, Witte runs White TV, one of the most prolific channels for the dissemination of conspiracy theories in Sweden, ranging from 9/11 to 5G and the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, mind control of Swedish politics."

The case was closed out years ago and you haven't had a job since.
Well, I am still, July 2020, quite popular and in good health with plenty work at hand. I explain all at my website.
But I repeat.

So 1989 US oil tanker Exxon Valdez went aground in Alaska waters and oil polluted the water. US fishermen got upset, etc.
I worked at the time for one of the biggest, private ship/tanker owners in the world based at Monte Carlo, Monaco.
United Nations decided to investigate how to prevent oil pollution from tankers at sea. I was asked to assist as an expert in a committee. We the experts met regularly at London 1991/8.
Then 1994 M/S Estonia sank in the Baltic.
The chairman of the UN/IMO oil pollution prevention committee, BS, had also been appointed to explain how M/S Estonia sank. BS was an expert of everything.

I met BS the next month at London. We knew each other since 1991. BS & Co had then told media that M/S Estonia sank because the bow visor had fallen off a month earlier.
In the meantime my principals, operating identical ships with bow visors had asked me to check, if it could happen to us. We concluded it was not possible. Which I told BS at London end October 1994. BS became very unhappy. He told me I didn't know anything about safety at sea. Poor BS. We met regularly until end 1996 when BS disappeared. He had suddenly died February 1997.

I think he was murdered.

Imagine what can happens when you are an expert of safety at sea.

The UN/IMO committee about oil pollution prevention lost its chairman 1996. BS was replaced by a Russian.

The Estonian, Finnish, Swedish investigators regretted that BS had passed away 1997 and issued a report end 1997 that the visor had fallen off, bla, bla, bla.

But the case goes on.

Topic is the escape velocity from a newly found, far away object in space >50 million light years away. This enormous object is solid and has a diameter same as our Solar System >50 AU, i.e. its mass is very, very big. It is suggested that an image has been done of this object using radio telescopes on Earth and that the object is a solid Black Hole, from which light cannot escape. I just suggest that this object/image is complete fantasy by astronomer clowns - it doesn't exist. They just make it up to fool people. Like the atomic bomb fantasy 1945 invented by nuclear scientist clowns at the request of a US President and a Secretary of War. It was also a fantasy that people still believe in.

No, the scientific method of procedure that has characterized natural science since the 17th century, consists in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.

Building a fake A bomb is certainly plausible though. With the mutually assured destruction threat, you only really need a threat of an A bomb and not the real deal. No one is going to expect to use it

As long as governments 'think' the other side has a working A bomb, it's all that matters. So Stalin could have had some fakes built to sure up his strength. As long as people believed they were real and he never had to use them, then what's the difference? Not like he'd invite his enemies over to inspect and scrutinise his arsenal

People make empty threats all the time. If Australia said we were getting into the business of nuclear weapons and we had a stockpile, who is going to check/validate that?

Easier to start with bow visors! Three governments and their experts suggested 1994 that a bow visor of the MV Estonia ferry fell off a dark, stormy night; nobody noticed it and the ship sank killing ~1000 persons. We had similar ships carrying 1000000 passengers, so we tested the hypothesis. One night when the storm was B9 with huge waves and strong winds, I just asked the Captain to speed up. And suddenly the bow pitched up and then down into a solid, steep wave! The result was a big shock, bang, >140 dB and splash followed by vibrations of the complete ship waking up all aboard. Many passengers complained that they could not sleep due to noise and vibrations. But the bow/visor was intact. Air had been trapped between it and the wave and was compressed; the air pressure elastically/plastically compressing the ship’s structure until the air bubble exploded, etc, etc. I have myself described it in a peer reviewed scientific paper. The three governments announced that I was an idiot. They just covered up by a lie that the ship was sunk by sabotage of terrorists. Shit happens.

Re nuclear weapons; Nobel Prize winner physics M Siegbahn had 1945 been asked by the Swedish government to build a Swedish A-bomb! Siegbahn agreed subject he would describe it in a peer reviewed paper. But No! All had to be secret 1945. 1964 I discussed the matter with Siegbahn who suggested I did shipbuilding instead. So 1972/6 I built oil tankers in Japan and met Japanese from both Hiroshima and Nagasaki and which had served in the Japanese Imperial Navy. They indicated to me that no A-bombs had exploded in Japan 1945. It was all propaganda to allow quick, negotiated surrender, which had to be kept secret. I forgot the matter until 1999 when a ship of mine broke down at Mombasa, Kenya. I went to fix it and at a hotel I met a beautiful woman. We chatted. She had spent her childhood at Freiberg i.Sa, East Germany where her father secretly worked 1948/58 for Stalin mining 0.02% Uranium ore for the fake Stalin A-Bomb. Her father and mother disappeared one day 1958 and she was told they were dead. Mining fake Uranium in a communist country invited to do business at the side!! Anyway, it ended happily and I could confirm 1999 on the spot that no Uranium had been mined in Sachsen ever and that Stalin never built an A-bomb. It was just copy/paste propaganda of the fake US one!. Life is full of surprises. I just report it at my website. I find it fascinating. Why would I lie about it?

Building a fake A bomb is certainly plausible though. With the mutually assured destruction threat, you only really need a threat of an A bomb and not the real deal. No one is going to expect to use it

As long as governments 'think' the other side has a working A bomb, it's all that matters. So Stalin could have had some fakes built to sure up his strength. As long as people believed they were real and he never had to use them, then what's the difference? Not like he'd invite his enemies over to inspect and scrutinise his arsenal

Mutually assured destruction relies upon the threat being plausible. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a threat. It's as simple as that.

People make empty threats all the time. If Australia said we were getting into the business of nuclear weapons and we had a stockpile, who is going to check/validate that?

So when China inevidebly decides that the South China Sea extends far beyond Australia and that we belong to them, they may think twice before attacking. 8)

I can guarantee the ANZUS treaty under Trump is null and void. He doesn't give a shit. It's about time Australia understood America is full of crap and won't come to our aid. America First and all that nonsense

We're talking close to 70 years of "empty" threats and globally. Not likely empty. At a minimum, logic dictates otherwise. And yes, stockpiles are checked, among allies.

And I agree, don't trust the US right now. Run away, run away.

I consider myself quite good at spotting lies and fantasies like these. I use the scientific method and critical thinking.

The extent of your scientific method and critical thinking amount to you claiming to have had a conversation with some astronauts in a bar and that you once talked to someone from Japan. You have no method and not even one discernible critical thought. And on top of that you fabricate things like Americans will be put to death if they talk disparagingly about nuclear weapons. Why lie?

No, the scientific method of procedure that has characterized natural science since the 17th century, consists in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.

The most of which you don't even remotely follow. By even pretending to associate yourself with the method is sullying the method itself. You form a hypothesis then fail to systematically observe, measure, experiment, formulate, test anything. That's like 9/10ths of the scientific method you don't follow.
All you do is formulate a hairbrained hypothesis and then try to anecdotally surmise why something can't work. That's not science. "You know, I talked to some astronauts in a bar once and they agreed that the urination facilities on Apollo were woeful..." Totally made up and unscientific as it gets.


Just producing an image of something doesn't prove that nuclear weapons and black holes exist, that asstronuts have visited the Moon, that Arabs attacked USA or that ships sink when the bow visor falls off, etc.

Of course it doesn't. But just because you don't understand any of the science involved doesn't mean that these didn't or couldn't happen. That's your fatal flaw: Delusions of Grandeur. You think that your logical mind precludes all of these things actually happening when you don't even remotely possess the knowledge to make that determination.


And US laws are what they are and US have executed people for telling the truth about its nuclear weapons. Or you die in prison or police custody. Life is not easy.

And no, because you don't have the expertise or even a method, you resort to making things up. Fabricating. Lying. You said:

Re A-bombs I don't know anybody that disagree with me. A-bombs are just propaganda since 1945. But in Japan and USA it is illegal to say so. I happened to know people in East Germany helping Stalin building fake A-bombs! I also know people from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I have worked in and visited Japan many times.

That is just an out-and-out made up lie. It is not illegal to say A-bombs are just propaganda in the USA. Why do you lie? Why?

Easier to start with bow visors! Three governments and their experts suggested 1994 that a bow visor of the MV Estonia ferry fell off a dark, stormy night; nobody noticed it and the ship sank killing ~1000 persons. We had similar ships carrying 1000000 passengers, so we tested the hypothesis. One night when the storm was B9 with huge waves and strong winds, I just asked the Captain to speed up. And suddenly the bow pitched up and then down into a solid, steep wave! The result was a big shock, bang, >140 dB and splash followed by vibrations of the complete ship waking up all aboard. Many passengers complained that they could not sleep due to noise and vibrations. But the bow/visor was intact. Air had been trapped between it and the wave and was compressed; the air pressure elastically/plastically compressing the ship’s structure until the air bubble exploded, etc, etc. I have myself described it in a peer reviewed scientific paper. The three governments announced that I was an idiot. They just covered up by a lie that the ship was sunk by sabotage of terrorists. Shit happens.

So you decided to run a live test to see if the same phenomena that brought down the Estonia and killed 1000 people could be replicated, in real life? And you asked the captain to replicate the Estonia scenario with passengers on board and such? And the Captain was like, "Oh yeah, sure Anders, I'll replicate exactly what took down the Estonia, here, with all these people on board my ship, just to see if your theory is correct, we may all die, but I'll give it a go..."
You expect anyone would believe that a captain would risk his entire ship and all souls on board just so you could test out a theory? You're beyond delusional. And lying some more. Your credibility is zero.

Re nuclear weapons; Nobel Prize winner physics M Siegbahn had 1945 been asked by the Swedish government to build a Swedish A-bomb! Siegbahn agreed subject he would describe it in a peer reviewed paper. But No! All had to be secret 1945.

Ummm, it was 1945, still pretty secret stuff back then. WWII and just post WWII and all. Yeah, all had to be secret. That's a mystery to you?



1964 I discussed the matter with Siegbahn who suggested I did shipbuilding instead. So 1972/6 I built oil tankers in Japan and met Japanese from both Hiroshima and Nagasaki and which had served in the Japanese Imperial Navy. They indicated to me that no A-bombs had exploded in Japan 1945.

So? Hardly empirical. Simply here-say from some sailors. Perhaps better known for their yarns than not. Their "indication" is not evidence of anything one way or the other. I don't even believe, based upon your lack of credibility and fabrications, that you ever even met these blokes.


It was all propaganda to allow quick, negotiated surrender, which had to be kept secret. I forgot the matter until 1999 when a ship of mine broke down at Mombasa, Kenya. I went to fix it and at a hotel I met a beautiful woman. We chatted. She had spent her childhood at Freiberg i.Sa, East Germany where her father secretly worked 1948/58 for Stalin mining 0.02% Uranium ore for the fake Stalin A-Bomb. Her father and mother disappeared one day 1958 and she was told they were dead. Mining fake Uranium in a communist country invited to do business at the side!!

Cool story. You met a girl and she told you her parents mined ore and were "disappeared". Like I said, cool story that literally means nothing in terms of evidence of anything.

And what you do with your 'cool' stories is that you make them into lies. Like your lie about Americans not being able to talk ill about nuclear weapons under penalty of death. Lie.

You're just not a credible narrator of your own life and times.

Yes, I do it all the times. No risk! Cost little. Just speed up! Notice the impact, noise and vibrations. You have to test your ships. Best in full scale.

I'm going to call you on this too.

You asked a captain of a ship with 1000 passengers to speed up in a storm to test if the ship would survive, and he happily said sure, lets ram those waves and see if we sink like the other ship did!

The only believable part of your story is three governments being upset that you risked the lives of 1000 people to test a theory.

Thanks for your call.
Yes, I have demonstrated full scale that in a storm impacts at the bow of a ship occurs when you increase the speed. The ship belonged to me and my associates.

The bow and the ship was of course built to withstand such wave impacts high above waterline, which, when they occur, are noisy and will wake up all aboard. I had already 1978 written a report about it about big oil tankers with small crew living 250 meters aft of the bow ... not hearing it.
An article of mine about same thing for ferries with bow visors was 15 August 1996 published by the biggest Swedish Daily Dagens Nyheter. I simple suggested the visor could not have been struck off by a wave or two due to storm and too high speed. You would notice it and slow down.

The response of the Swedish government via public news agency TT came same day. I was an idiot.  I describe the matter at my popular website since >20 years. Pls study it! When I tried to reply to this accusation, Swedish media would not publish it. Imagine that. In France you have a right to respond.
 
After that article was published I got plenty new information how the visor was removed from the ship, i.e. by the Royal Swedish Navy divers at the bottom of the sea using explosives. I was not surprised. I did my military service in that Navy 1965/70 and know plenty madmen there.

Easier to start with bow visors! Three governments and their experts suggested 1994 that a bow visor of the MV Estonia ferry fell off a dark, stormy night; nobody noticed it and the ship sank killing ~1000 persons. We had similar ships carrying 1000000 passengers, so we tested the hypothesis. One night when the storm was B9 with huge waves and strong winds, I just asked the Captain to speed up. And suddenly the bow pitched up and then down into a solid, steep wave! The result was a big shock, bang, >140 dB and splash followed by vibrations of the complete ship waking up all aboard. Many passengers complained that they could not sleep due to noise and vibrations. But the bow/visor was intact. Air had been trapped between it and the wave and was compressed; the air pressure elastically/plastically compressing the ship’s structure until the air bubble exploded, etc, etc. I have myself described it in a peer reviewed scientific paper. The three governments announced that I was an idiot. They just covered up by a lie that the ship was sunk by sabotage of terrorists. Shit happens.

I'm going to call you on this too.

You asked a captain of a ship with 1000 passengers to speed up in a storm to test if the ship would survive, and he happily said sure, lets ram those waves and see if we sink like the other ship did!

The only believable part of your story is three governments being upset that you risked the lives of 1000 people to test a theory.

You have a link to your paper in an actual journal, or just on your web page?  What Journal punished it, who reviewed it? Give me an actual link.

And where did the governments announce you were an idiot? There had to be news coverage of that announcement. Where is it?  Link please.

Thanks for your call.
Yes, I have demonstrated full scale that in a storm impacts at the bow of a ship occurs when you increase the speed. The ship belonged to me and my associates.

The bow and the ship was of course built to withstand such wave impacts high above waterline, which, when they occur, are noisy and will wake up all aboard. I had already 1978 written a report about it about big oil tankers with small crew living 250 meters aft of the bow ... not hearing it.
An article of mine about same thing for ferries with bow visors was 15 August 1996 published by the biggest Swedish Daily Dagens Nyheter. I simple suggested the visor could not have been struck off by a wave or two due to storm and too high speed. You would notice it and slow down.

The response of the Swedish government via public news agency TT came same day. I was an idiot.  I describe the matter at my popular website since >20 years. Pls study it! When I tried to reply to this accusation, Swedish media would not publish it. Imagine that. In France you have a right to respond.
 
After that article was published I got plenty new information how the visor was removed from the ship, i.e. by the Royal Swedish Navy divers at the bottom of the sea using explosives. I was not surprised. I did my military service in that Navy 1965/70 and know plenty madmen there.

Right.  So you tested a ship with 1000 passengers and wrote a peer reviewed article about it, but can't find it, but wrote a letter to a newspaper instead, but can't find that either, then the government complained and the newspapers wouldn't print your complaints.

Sounds legit.  ::)

If you really had a peer reviewed published paper about your experiment, I'd think you could name the Journal and issue.

Your web page is NOT a reference. If that's the only source you can cite then you don't have anything to back up your claims.

You find them at my website. I happened to be aboard our ship in a great storm between Genoa and Tanger and in spite of slowing down in the Golfe de Lion I (everyone) was awoken by this enormous wave impact at the bow that took place in the middle of the night. I went up to the bridge and discussed the matter with the Captain. There were more impacts and I decided to go down and have a look at the visor. No problems whatsoever. But the ship became 12 hours delayed. It is very easy to repeat the test. But it can only take place in a big storm. The waves were really big. The storm wind came from the Atlantic/Bisqay Bay and passed France north of the Pyrennees. Imagine that.

Not that it has anything to do with the topic, but did you personally inspect the bow visor and latching mechanism on the Estonia before or after the sinking?

I knew the owner a little before he died and the company went bankrupt by the sons. I have worked with safety at sea >40 years. I have also my doubts about safety in our Solar System and escape and light velocities (topic) and mysterious black holes. There are plenty pirates around making it unsafe.

You have to look again. Anyway, we bought the very good ship for scrap in Greece 20 years ago and then operated it a couple of years in the Red Sea until Comanav chartered it to carry passengers/guest workers Genoa/Tanger. It worked fine until fuel costs increased so the ship was sold for scrap, i.e. more than we had paid five years earlier. It became cheaper to fly or to go by car (and take a ferry across the straight of Gibraltar). Those were the times. Why are you curious? Have you problems with speeds of ships and light?

Hm, all ships pitch in heavy weather and, if you go too fast, a wave impact will occur at the bow waking you up. So you have to slow down. It is the escape of wave impacts velocity valid for any ship. It is much slower than the speed of light.

It is illegal for people like me to inspect the wreck of the Estonia at the bottom of the sea. Swedish law doesn't allow an inspection on site.
But yes, I have inspected the certificates, drawings, records of M/V Estonia and talked to crew members, etc, after the incident and it is clear to me that the ship was not seaworthy at departure. And I am not alone to have reached that result. Just study the books I have written about it.

Correct. You have to study my website for full info and all ships I have inspected, etc. I am happy to note that you agree I have been in shipping biz since 1966. Were you born then?
Re the asstronuts I met, I think it is better not to disclose more about them. I leave it to media journalists to contact me about  interviewing the heroes and promote their lies.

You have no problem calling Buzz Aldrin a drunk and a liar, yet you are protecting the identity of a couple of astronauts who you said you met in a bar and they told you the "truth" about NASA? Yeah, that totally doesn't reek of a complete fabrication on your part.  ???
Correct! All clowns stating that they have been in space are liars. Any travel in the Solar System is one way only! There is no way to return. Haven't you understood that?

Right. So you willingly call Buzz Aldrin a drunk and a liar.

Yet:
Re the asstronuts I met, I think it is better not to disclose more about them. I leave it to media journalists to contact me about  interviewing the heroes and promote their lies.

I'm asking as a citizen media journalist. What do you have about their heroic lies?

Do you get that you have zero credibility in ship safety let alone any knowledge in spaceship safety? You literally fabricate arguments, patently lie. And you wonder why no one takes you seriously? It's a grand delusional thing you have going on here predicated on zero facts. You claim you're in the shipping business. I believe that only because of the tall tales you tell.

Who were the astronauts you 'drank' with and what did they tell you? If you can't answer that, then your credibility rating has dropped so far below zero, I'm not even sure how to chart it. I mean you have no problem slandering Buzz. Why stop there?

So far, you can't produce any evidence you've even worked on ships, let alone safety of them. You can't produce anything other than slander in regard to those who went to space. You don't produce any science because you're fixated on technology you don't understand. I mean your Dunning-Kruger level is somewhere above the chartable regions of the phenomenon. It's remarkable how delusional an individual can be. You've broken some barriers in that regard.

Zero people have hired you after being exposed to your mania. That much is known.

Do Heiwas sea faring ships reach the speed of light or something? Why is this talked about in a thread about escape velocities and the speed of light? Weird.
We all agree that you need velocity to escape from Earth and that it is not the speed of light. The problem arises when you return from space and try to land in front of passport control and health security. How to reduce the arrival velocity to zero?
Then there is the problem of illegal immigrants from space and their flying saucers. It seems to have solved itself! No saucers seen landing recently.

Actually, it's quite simple. You don't understand the science or engineering around doing so.
Because of this non-understanding on your part you fabricate stories of cavorting with astronauts and meeting someone from Japan and, more dauntingly, actually being a safety engineer for seafaring ships. No one in their right mind would hire you for an engineering task given your lack of knowledge regarding physics so loudly exhibited on your web site. You have zero credibility in things you claim to know about and less than zero credibility in things you know nothing about.

Just quit with the charade. Since you've gone full conspiracy theorist, no one has hired you for engineering of anything. And it's kind of insane that you are delusional enough to think that someone did. Like I said, you have zero credibility.

So you arrive from space with velocity 7000 m/s at 120 000 m altitude at point A in the upper atmosphere and shall land in the ocean 15 minutes later at point B, where somebody in a boat shall pick you up. So how to go from A to B and land safely in front of the boat?

It's extremely simple. It's called aerobraking. Atmospheric drag slows the capsule down to the point where they can use this astounding device called a parachute.

Ever hear of rockets? When astronauts return from the ISS the capsule fires rockets to push it down to where there is atmosphere, which does the majority of the slowing down.

No, in the old times there was a Shuttle that returned from the ISS. The Shuttle had same speed as the ISS - 7000 m/s - at 400 000 m altitude and it used rocket engines to slow it down so it started to drop down on Earth. Dropping down the speed increased ... etc, etc.
And the Shuttle didn't have any fuel aboard for braking.
So the 135 returns by Shuttle from the ISS never took place. http://heiwaco.tripod.com/moontravel2.htm

Quote
Flight altitude record (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_altitude_record)
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
53.0 km is rather higher than your 20 km and the atmosphere doesn't suddenly stop there but the density simply keeps gradually falling so that there's still enough at 150 km to bring a spacecraft down.

How many of these scientific, peer reviewed description how to do a re-entry without being vaporized by heat generated when braking papers do you need? There appears to be a lot of them.

You published findings that it's impossible to return from space? Citation required, I don't believe you. And making a web page doesn't count as publishing.  ::)

You've provided no proof or any valid reasoning or logic other than claiming it's impossible. That's it, just you saying NO. Not much evidence, other than showing your profound ignorance.

Sorry, there are no peer reviewed scientific descriptions of how to re-enter from space and land intact on Earth anywhere. I know re-entry is taught universities, etc, but without any evidence at all! NASA, ESA, etc say it is easy but ... no evidence. Nobody can explain how to return from space and land on Earth.

What?

No evidence? Five hundred people that went to space and back from several countries don't count? Dozens of space agencies launching satelites and rockets, including several private companies aren't evidence?  Maybe not to you, because you just blanket deny anything involving space.  Easy to say there is no evidence when you just see no space, hear no space.

You again, provide nothing but YOUR assertion it's impossible. Reality would disagree.

Nobody can explain it to YOU because you are simply incapable of understanding it. That's not NASA's fault. The rest of us can understand it just fine.

Your inability to understand doesn't make it a lie, it just make you, well, figure it out.

Yes, >500 persons say that they have done a re-entry and then landed either in an ocean or in a Khazak desert or in a Shuttle at a USAF base but ... no re-entries ever took place. I have explained why at my website since many years. It is not a conspiracy theory but a simple fact. Just ask any of the 500 how they did it. They haven't got a clue. They just await that you shall kiss their feet and admire them.
I still await a scientific, peer reviewed description how to do a re-entry without being vaporized by heat generated when braking.

Thanks. But none of the papers are peer reviewed and approved by the scientific community. NASA & Co encourage all the time students to write papers about space, bla, bla.
I always love the suggestion that a re-entry starts at point A in the upper atmosphere where there is no air - 120 000 m altitude - and 7000 m/s speed and that you then drop down to point B (the impact location!) at ground/sea level during 15 minutes and stops there at 0 speed. A soft impact, LOL!
If you ask how to find point A (so you can start), there is nobody to answer. And the trajectory A to B you better forget, too. Is it straight, curved, how do you know that you slow down, where you are, etc? Nobody knows! Imagine that >500 asstronuts have landed not knowing how the braking went to avoid hitting something during the re-entry.

I remind you that the #1 re-entry was done by the Hero of the Sovietunion, Yuri G back in 1961. When he was dropping down from A above, he opened a door of his spacecraft, jumped and landed by parachute. His spacecraft landed intact not far away. And there were people there to witness it. I describe it at my website. http://heiwaco.tripod.com/moontravelw1.htm#18

Those that do plan these things base their reentry trajectories on much research, measurement and theory.

So you don't have the brains to understand controlled atmospheric braking.

Every new re-entry vehicle needs considerable research, experimental work design and testing.

And atmospheric braking (though from sub-orbital speed) has been done since the 1950s.

I just note that NASA asked these people to produce their pseudo scientific garbage or my funny theories for other NASA people (the scientific community? LOL) to adore to see what nonsense you can get away with. US universities are full of such PhDs. It is simple - there is no Aerodynamic Drag at 120 000 m altitude to enable a re-entry. So Gagariin and Glenn faked it 1961/2 with their orbits around Earth and re-entries. Just study my findings about them.

It is simple - there is no Aerodynamic Drag at 120 000 m altitude to enable a re-entry.
Would you please stop saying such stupid things?  The atmospheric pressure at 120,000 is very low, but it is not zero.  At 17,000+ mph, it doesn't take very much atmospheric pressure for a blunt body to cause aerodynamic drag, especially considering that the atmosphere gets more dense as you get lower.

So what is the atmospheric pressure (Pa) at 120 000 m? Why not copy it in a wind tunnel and do a test? How much is the drag (N)? Can it slow down a spacecraft returning doing a re-entry? According Gagarin and Glenn their spacecrafts slowed down in <10 minutes to enable landnings 1961/2. My finding is that both events never took place.

Your 'findings' are nothing more than you simply stating it's impossible because you can't understand it.

I find it baffling that someone who claims to be a smart engineer thinks we should just build a wind tunnel capable of pushing air at 17,000 mph at 0.0000000049 atmospheres of pressure. Really. Just build that you say? I'd love to see your design. A really big fan I bet.

You also don't seem to understand that the drag at 120,000m slows it down a little, which drops it deeper into the atmosphere, which slows it more, which drops it further, ect until it's fully inside the atmosphere and slowed enough to use a parachute.

Why do you keep posting on subjects you do no research on? Look up some answers before just throwing your hands up in surrender and deciding it's impossible because you don't know anything.

My finding is that both events never took place.

My finding is you have no idea what you are talking about.

I have worked at two ship model testing tanks and knows the physics of model testing in interface water/air where wave and friction resistances follow different scale laws and done many model tests to obtain full scale results.
So it should be very easy to test a wingless spacecraft with a shield at the front to measure its resistance/drag at various speeds. But it has not been done!Reason? No wingless spacecraft has ever flown anywhere.

I never tested spacecrafts in ship model tanks, but we measured impacts on the bow in severe weather. Already 1968! Imagine that!
I assume that a spacecraft dropping from vacuum space into the Earth solid atmosphere will either bounce or be destroyed. It will not be slowed down intact, so it will land. I wonder why NASA has never tested it.

Probably because you are the only one stupid to suggest "a spacecraft dropping from vacuum space into the Earth solid atmosphere".Atmospheric braking has been explained often enough! You're just trying to be perverse.

If you ever actually took the time to research things or look up your 'wonderings' you might actually find answers.

But that would require you to actually think and process information which seems to be beyond your abilities.

Much easier to just decide that it's not you that's confused, it's the entire world which must be a vast series of lies and conspiracies.

Did Gagarin or Glenn claim that they were at 120,000 m the whole time that they were slowing down or did they claim that they started slowing down around 120,000 m and continued slowing down more and more as they descended into thicker air?

Glenn flow 3 times around the Earth 1962 at say 400 000 m altitude starting from Florida going east. He quickly disappeared in the sky! His spacecraft can be seen in a museum! Top speed > 7000 m/s! To land Glenn started to slow down by firing 'retro-rockets' on his space craft over the Pacific! Where the fuel came from nobody knows. Most of the flight was automatic followed from ground by IBM computers. Glenn then continued to slow down flying over the whole of USA from California to Florida and apparently started the re-entry over Florida (where he had started >4 hrs earlier) at 120 000 m altitude to drop into the Atlantic Ocean water from the sky 437 seconds later north of Santo Domingo, to be picked up by a USN ship. Hole in One!! I describe it at my website - see http://heiwaco.com/moontravelw1.htm#19 . During the final re-entry through the atmosphere radio contact was lost for a couple of minutes due to his heat shield getting hot - friction drag!!. It seems Glenn flow straight fwd all the time only changing altitude and speed. Glenn later became a US senator to fly with the Shuttle around the Earth to do a second fake re-entry and landing. He was in my opinion just a lying actor all the time. He was never in space.

Post by: Heiwa on July 12, 2020, 08:24:28 AM
We discuss escape velocity and use Gagarin and Glenn as examples. Their spacecrafts were just catapulted to orbit Earth at 7000 m/s high speed and 400 000 m altitude by strong rockets 1961/2. You need much more speed to escape but here it was just an orbit test at low altitude and speed. Gagarin made one orbit, Glenn made three! To stop orbiting both heroes reduced velocity to landing velocity using brake rockets to lower altitude by gravity, so they entered the atmosphere at 120000 m altitude, where very weak air friction drag reduced velocity from say 8100 m/s to 100 m/s during 10 minutes, so parachutes could be used for vertical landing. OK, Gagarin jumped out of his craft and landed himself with his personal parachute.
Question is can any spacecraft slow down from 8000 m/s to 0 just by air friction during 10 minutes. My finding is that it is not possible. Either you burn up or crash but you cannot rely on air friction. Of course there are plenty people suggesting the opposite and their only evidence is that they consider me a liar. They apparently believe Gagarin and Glenn and air friction. To solve the question I offer anyone €1M proving me wrong since many years.

Your findings are just you saying it's not possible.

Sorry, just because you can't understand is not proof of anything but your ignorance of how re-entry works.

Once again... you SAYING it's not possible isn't proof.

And 'plenty of people' would be pretty much the entire scientific community, NASA, and a dozen other space agencies, plus all the countless engineers who work on aircraft that demonstrate drag and friction and compression heating of airplanes and rockets. Basicly the whole world.

And then there is you saying... no.

Well, I am called a liar and idiot by several governments, so I am used to it. But nobody has proven that I am wrong.
You are proven wrong every time a successful manned space flight happens.  That you don't believe those missions are real is irrelevant.

But no manned space flights ever happens. There is no evidence! A rocket goes up in the sky with heroes. A little later a box full of heroes drops down from the sky after a mysterious re-entry. What kind of evidence is it? And what did they do in space? Scientific research. LOL! Could have been done by a robot at 1/100 price. I always ask the heroes about going to the toilet. They never went there!

Once again, just because it blows your mind and you can't understand or believe it is not evidence.

If you have proof, show it.

Simply repeating "Golly gee that can't be real!" is not anything but evidence that you lack the ability to comprehend reality.

Science Experiments - Laser Ranging Retroreflector[ (https://www.lpi.usra.edu/lunar/missions/apollo/apollo_11/experiments/lrr/)
The Laser Ranging Retroreflector experiment was deployed on Apollo 11, 14, and 15. It consists of a series of corner-cube reflectors, which are a special type of mirror with the property of always reflecting an incoming light beam back in the direction it came from. A similar device was also included on the Soviet Union's Lunakhod 2 spacecraft. These reflectors can be illuminated by laser beams aimed through large telescopes on Earth. The reflected laser beam is also observed with the telescope, providing a measurement of the round-trip distance between Earth and the Moon. This is the only Apollo experiment that is still returning data from the Moon. Many of these measurements have been made by McDonald Observatory in Texas. From 1969 to 1985, they were made on a part-time basis using the McDonald Observatory 107-inch telescope. Since 1985, these observations have been made using a dedicated 30-inch telescope. Additional measurements have been made by observatories in Hawaii, California, France, Australia, and Germany.

Laser beams are used because they remain tightly focused for large distances. Nevertheless, there is enough dispersion of the beam that it is about 7 kilometers in diameter when it reaches the Moon and 20 kilometers in diameter when it returns to Earth. Because of this very weak signal, observations are made for several hours at a time. By averaging the signal for this period, the distance to the Moon can be measured to an accuracy of about 3 centimeters (the average distance from the Earth to the Moon is about 385,000 kilometers).
Were you using a 107-inch telescope and a high power pulsed laser?

Why do you avoid answering this? You have been asked a dozen times and never give an answer. Can you not think of ANYTHING?

I haven't avoided that question. If you study my website you find that I support one way, high speed space trips putting satellites in orbits in space at various altitudes. I am a small  shareholder of one such company since many years. We send anything into orbits. But not humans.

The problem is the return trip of a spacecraft, reduction of altitude and the associated reduction of speed for landing on Earth, a.k.a. braking.

Our friends Gagarin and Glenn suggested 1961/2 that they used retro-rockets to reduce altitude even if their spacecrafts lacked fuel for it.

And then the altitude was reduced and they started entering, at a certain angle, the atmosphere , which is very thin at the top and denser at ground level.

It is suggested that a force developed when you penetrated the atmosphere - friction drag - which is a function the local speed of the spacecraft and the local density of the air.

There doesn't exist any scientific method to calculate that variable force and resulting trajectory of the spacecraft attempting to land on Earth after a trip in space. You can ask any university teaching astronautics and none can provide the answer.

Simple calculations of the energy (J) required to slow down any spacecraft for landing shows that that energy would heat up the spacecraft 40000 C, i.e. it would vaporize in smoke at once. 99.99% of all meteorites dropping down from the Universe end up like it.

But Buzz, PhD, invented a fantastic 'heat shield' that absorbed that energy, bla, bla, bla. The details are top secret. National security, you know!

I always feel sorry for people having spent plenty time and money to become astronautic scientists that then must lie that re-entries from space is easy, bla, bla. to be employed by NASA, ESA, SpaceX and similar criminal organizations.

Mainstream media are not interested. They support the criminals. It is just a question of money.

Every time you are asked you just re-state that it's not possible.  Yes, we know you think that.  Now tell us what it would take to convince you otherwise?  How can we state this any clearer?
Well, I only accept truth as an answer. An image of a spacecraft dropping down below parachutes in an ocean or a remote place in Russia or Kazaksthan is not sufficient.

You did it again.  You didn't say WHAT truth you would accept, you just once more said what you wouldn't accept. We know this. You keep repating it.

There has to be SOMETHING you would accept as proof?  Will you answer the question?

Why do you avoid answering this? You have been asked a dozen times and never give an answer. Can you not think of ANYTHING?

I haven't avoided that question. If you study my website you find that I support one way, high speed space trips putting satellites in orbits in space at various altitudes. I am a small  shareholder of one such company since many years. We send anything into orbits. But not humans.

And please, no photos of spacecrafts dropping down below a parachute as proof of visiting the Moon. Study my funny website about these hoaxes.

If he believes a return trip to space or the Moon is fundamentally impossible then the question is pointless

He'd have to delve into 'what if' about technology that doesn't or may never exist

For example, if antimatter was a fuel, then the problem of the weight of fuel to carry is eliminated which is one such problem about going to outer space and back again. The energy we would have at our disposal for applications within the solar system would be enormous

But we dont have antimatter fuel yet and wont in Heiwas life time. If we did, we could get to Mars in 6 weeks with only a few mg of fuel weight.

Oh that's easy

First present us with the complete works and nature of the universe in its entirety. Then we can have a look at the data and see.

We already know though from a photons perspective the Earth would 'appear' to be pretty flat. As would the entire universe. Who is to say that a photons perspective is not the default view and we are just an anomaly? Until you get that data we cant be sure. So dont bank on any particular shape

That question is one everyone should ask themselves whenever they want to be sure they are thinking with logic, and not blind faith.

You do not need the "complete works and nature of the universe in its entirety" to simply know the shape of a large solid object!

And what is done in science is make a hypothesis based on the available evidence available at the time and then test that hypothesis against further evidence as it comes in.
In the case of the Earth you could say that around 500 BC the chose the sphere over the then accepted flat Earth.
The spherical shape was confirmed by both observation and measurement until Isaac Newton claimed it should be very slightly ellipsoidal.
And I guess you know the rest.

Now has the flat Earth stood up to such scrutiny?

Photons move at the speed of light. At the speed of light, time is no longer in play. If you had a starting point A on one side of the universe an B on the other side of the universe, if there were no obstacles, the start and finish line would be on top of each other. The time taken from the photons reference would be 0s. There is no 'z' dimension.

We perceive the universe the way we do because of a dimension unrelated to shapes and that is time. On a microcosmic scale where time is irrelevant, what shape is the Earth? Or how about a scale that could view the entire universe in a single frame? If our universe is a black hole singularity in a 'mother' universe, from that universes perspective, what is our shape?

We aren't flat because we aren't in the frame of reference of a massless particle traveling at the speed of light.  Doesn't matter what some other object, entity, god or space alien see us as. Our reality is right here.

We aren't flat because we aren't in the frame of reference of a massless particle traveling at the speed of light.  Doesn't matter what some other object, entity, god or space alien see us as. Our reality is right here.

Can I be a sweet potato?

I did not make up nonsense. Unless you consider many scientists that you probably respect, to postulate nonsense when questioning the nature of our universe. None of what I said is original there.

Your reality may not be the reality

No, it was nonsense.

You are claiming because someone in another frame of reference sees us as flat, that we are flat in OUR frame of reference.

That's not how it works.

If I play peek-a-boo with you, it doesn't actually make me disappear, even though it might look that way.

Putting on rose colored glasses doesn't make you rose colored.

A photon 'seeing' us as a flat disk doesn't make us a flat disk, and a photon can't see anything anyway.

We already know though from a photons perspective the Earth would 'appear' to be pretty flat. As would the entire universe.
We do? When did that little photon tell you that?

Photons move at the speed of light. At the speed of light, time is no longer in play. If you had a starting point A on one side of the universe an B on the other side of the universe, if there were no obstacles, the start and finish line would be on top of each other. The time taken from the photons reference would be 0s. There is no 'z' dimension.

We perceive the universe the way we do because of a dimension unrelated to shapes and that is time. On a microcosmic scale where time is irrelevant, what shape is the Earth? Or how about a scale that could view the entire universe in a single frame? If our universe is a black hole singularity in a 'mother' universe, from that universes perspective, what is our shape?

You dont have the answer so it seems an exercise in futility to assert any narrative you have

A baby dragon perceives you as a quantum line extending through the 67th trans-dimensional plane. Therefore you are a potato.

Just explain the truth about landing on Earth after a space trip.
Why don't you just read a text book about it?  There are several on the topic:
https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/book/10.2514/4.861741
https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783540736462
https://www.amazon.com/Investigation-Atmospheric-Reentry-Maneuver-Vehicle/dp/1288326645
Try to use your intelligence to show I am wrong instead.

That's what we are trying to do, but you are simply denying everythign you are told.

Which is why you are being asked... what do YOU need to see or learn to believe it's possible?

Why won't you answer that question?  It's very simple.
Try to use your intelligence again to show I am wrong.

And here you go yet again, avoiding this simple question.

Are you incapable of understanding it, or do you not have an answer?  It's got to be one or the other.

Why can't you tell us what proof or evidence you need?
Try to use your intelligence to show I am wrong instead.

Once more, you didn't answer the question.

This is actually pretty funny, but sad too. You literally don't understand the question, do you? You just keep repeating the same thing over and over. You're not avoiding it really, you just don't understand what's being asked.

This more than anything shows you just are not capable of a rational discussion. If you can't think of any evidence that would convince you otherwise, it means you're not thinking logically, and not really thinking at all. You have your beliefs based on faith and you can't even comprehend being wrong. It's beyond your ability, and your closed-minded tiny world you made for yourself.

All you can do is repeat that non-answer and spam links to your web page.
No, you didn't understand the answer. Happens all the time.

If you mean you say things and people don't understand you, I can believe that.

No, you can't understand a simple question, "what evidence would you accept" and have spent days being unable to understand it and just confusedly repeating the same non-answer over and over.
I hear what you say, i.e. you don't understand my answer about acceptable evidence to a simple question. It always is what any court of law in a democracy requires. You may get away with all sorts of lies, though, but not with me.

Re space travel I recommend it! You relax in your spacecraft at the top of a powerful rocket and - off you go! After a while your speed is 7000 m/s and you can do a LEO around Earth. If your speed becomes >12000 m/s you can go to Mars and arrive close to it at 0 speed ... and drop down on it at increased speed
But try to return and land on Earth again? Sorry. No way. Space travel is always one-way in any orbit. That's why I recommend it to Russians and Americans. And Norwegians.

That just proves beyond a shadow of a doubt you are not THINKING about this subject.  You have just decided it's not real, and you won't accept any evidence presented.  You pretend you will, you demand evidence, but you won't accept anything at all.

If your speed becomes >12000 m/s you can go to Mars and arrive close to it at 0 speed ... and drop down on it at increased speed
But try to return and land on Earth again? Sorry. No way. Space travel is always one-way in any orbit. That's why I recommend it to Russians and Americans. And Norwegians.

Once more you fail to answer the question.

You just deflect, rant about hoaxes and denials.

But answer the question?  Nope.  You refuse, again ad again.

That just proves beyond a shadow of a doubt you are not THINKING about this subject.  You have just decided it's not real, and you won't accept any evidence presented.  You pretend you will, you demand evidence, but you won't accept anything at all.

That is not thinking rationally.  That is operating purely on faith and ignorance.  You literally can't comprehend the possibility of being wrong.  And the sad thing is, you can't even understand your own failure here.

Perhaps it is YOU that keeps missing the point. At this stage there is no evidence he could accept because he believes it impossible and never happened. That's why there is a CHALLENGE.

Otherwise, why have a challenge if he's already worked out an answer?

Your challenge is to give him the evidence that he can accept. So OK...................Go!

Just explain the truth about landing on Earth after a space trip.
Why don't you just read a text book about it?  There are several on the topic:
https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/book/10.2514/4.861741
https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783540736462
https://www.amazon.com/Investigation-Atmospheric-Reentry-Maneuver-Vehicle/dp/1288326645
Try to use your intelligence to show I am wrong instead.

That's what we are trying to do, but you are simply denying everythign you are told.

Which is why you are being asked... what do YOU need to see or learn to believe it's possible?

Why won't you answer that question?  It's very simple.
Try to use your intelligence again to show I am wrong.

And here you go yet again, avoiding this simple question.

Are you incapable of understanding it, or do you not have an answer?  It's got to be one or the other.

Why can't you tell us what proof or evidence you need?
Try to use your intelligence to show I am wrong instead.

Once more, you didn't answer the question.

This is actually pretty funny, but sad too. You literally don't understand the question, do you? You just keep repeating the same thing over and over. You're not avoiding it really, you just don't understand what's being asked.

This more than anything shows you just are not capable of a rational discussion. If you can't think of any evidence that would convince you otherwise, it means you're not thinking logically, and not really thinking at all. You have your beliefs based on faith and you can't even comprehend being wrong. It's beyond your ability, and your closed-minded tiny world you made for yourself.

All you can do is repeat that non-answer and spam links to your web page.
No, you didn't understand the answer. Happens all the time.

If you mean you say things and people don't understand you, I can believe that.

No, you can't understand a simple question, "what evidence would you accept" and have spent days being unable to understand it and just confusedly repeating the same non-answer over and over.
I hear what you say, i.e. you don't understand my answer about acceptable evidence to a simple question. It always is what any court of law in a democracy requires. You may get away with all sorts of lies, though, but not with me.

No, it's you still not understanding.

That question requires something SPECIFIC as an answer.

Not "Truth" or "Proof" or "Legal" or anything abstract.

Give me an experiment that could be conducted, that could produce a result you would accept that shows it's possible to go to space, and return safely.

Answer with an actual, specific example.

Now you are joining the club of people who can't understand the point of the question. You just don't get it.

It's not my job to hand-feed him, or you information while you spit it all out.

If you can not think of any evidence you would accept, then you are thinking with a cult-like mentality and there is nothing that can change your mind.

I can think of experiments and results that could convince me of a flat earth, but if Heiwa and you can't even imagine any evidence that you would accept, you are closed-minded and unable to think critically about the subject.

Which has been shown again and again.  You throw insults out a lot about us.  Mainstream, brainwashed, conditioned, sheep. But it's you who actually is unable to escape from the box you built.

If you issue a challenge, then that implies that you're at least open to the possibility that it can be done and are willing to be proven wrong.  Anders is neither.

There is no stupid challenge! Just concentrate on return from space.
Atmospheric braking has been used right back from the earliest ICBMS though not then from orbital speeds.
Heiwa won't believe it but live animals then humans have been returning from orbit since about 1960.
As for research, Russia was the first and they have been returning crew from space for the longest times.
NASA did a tremendous amount in the 1960s for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo missions Heiwa denies it but that work is still available.

And every new vehicle that is built to reenter needs more design and research and there have been many - including the Space Shuttle, X-37, SpaceX Crew dragon and Orion.

So why would anyone waste time explaining it to Heiwa - he wouldn't believe it anyway.

Well that seems part of the challenge. If by some fluke you do manage to convince him then you really have earned the 1 million euros

If Anders isn't open to the possibility that he might be wrong, then it's impossible to convince him that he's wrong.  That isn't a challenge, it's an exercise in futility.

It's rubbish because the fakes here are Heiwa and his faux-challengers.

Look, it's not just this site where Heiwa spouts his rubbish! He and his infamous website are well known outside here.
Quote from: Heiwa
Another finding of mine is that structures do not collapse from top down by gravity 911-style and becomes dust. I have been invited to US institutions of high learning to explain it but FBI or CIA stopped it.
What a joke! Why would the FBI or CIA be interested in the rubbish you claim?
But I do wonder why you were turfed out of the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. Were your conspiracy ideas to rich for even them.

Wow, how bad do you have to go from "Petitioner of the Month" to "hit the road, Jack" by AE911T?

It appears that Anders has been shown the door at Gage's group.

Disclosure: I say "appears" because I have no idea where or when this happened.

However I see no reason to believe that this was initiated by Bjorkman. I suspect that Anders own nonsense at his Tripod site (i.e., all photos & videos showing planes impacting towers are fake, a-bombs don't work & shuttle flights, Mars landers & Apollo missions are all NASA hoaxes) was too much even for Gage.

Many years ago I assisted Richard Gage to start AE911Truth so I know him and have met him. AE911T has an airplane in its logo and when I pointed out to Gage that no planes hit any WTC towers at NY on 911 back in 2001, he wasn't happy.
It is not easy to live with lies that airplanes were hijacked on 911 with FBI and GWB looking on.

Well, don't lie about it! Just admit that you are wrong and that the aeroplanes so many saw really did crash into the WTC and the Pentagon!

How did the plane parts end up buried deep inthe Pentagon if no plane crashed into it?
Now scram everybody's sick of you!

Please, no planes crashed into WTC/NY or Pentagon 2001. NY was a great show 'live on TV' seen by plenty people. Imagine three skyscrapers completely destroyed by ... controlled demolitions. And the plane parts at Pentagon were just scrap planted there from other planes. Just check the numbers of the parts.
All these done by 19 Arabs!
