Title: Asteroids and Comets
Post by: astronomy101 on March 01, 2007, 12:03:05 PM

I imagine that is what the Big Bang looked like. After the Big Bang happened, that means everything is moving up and away from each other. So my question is, how can there be asteroids and comets? Everything in the universe would be moving away from each other, not zig zag and other ways like asteroids and comets move. I guess the Oort Belt is fake.

The Big Bang was at LEAST 14 billion years ago. Gravity and other forces would allow for comets and other objects to move around in other directions.

Aren't asteroids (just like planets) caused by the formation of stars, just like our sun....which is a tiny 32 mile disk....hmmmm

Well, this is how it happened. About 380000 years after the "singularity", the first atoms formed, and about a million years all the universe was was hydrogen, forming into clouds. About 200-600 million years after the big bang, galaxies have already formed. Now at a smaller scale, when stars form, they start out as nebulas, with the force of gravity compressing enough to begin nuclear reaction. The "leftover" material turns into planets and asteroids orbeting the star, in some cases stars form binary star systers, sometimes with 4 or 5 stars in one system. That is the natural way that the universe came to existence, and made everything that we see. I cant even think of how the FE universe has to work to create a flat planet that surprisingly does not collapse into itself due to gravity, and the sun, moon, stars, shadow object, conspiracy, OWW i think i have a migrane!

Maybe it's related to the random gravity fields that exist from stars but not from other matter, yet still affects the matter which doesn't have gravity, thats my guess.  Of course, a much better explanation would be the gravity from all matter.

No offense to Tom, but please ignore what he said. It isn't at all compatible with FE consensus. In FE, there was no Big Bang, or at least it was very different from the one in the traditional model. Here's how asteroids and comets impact Earth:

Earth is, of course, moving 'upwards', constantly accelerating at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared. This creates the illusion of gravity. Meteors are simply objects in the Earth's path that are either moving at a constant velocity or accelerating more slowly than the Earth; either way, they are decelerating relative to us. Thus, Earth catches up to them and smashes into the meteors (from the meteor's perspective; from our frame of reference the meteor smashes into the Earth).

Does anyone have a solid FE Theory? It seems like all of the FE'ers have their own version of it, some more extreme than others. Tom's version includes the big bang, which doesnt exist in the FE theory right? how could something as big as the "big bang" be confused if it is there or not. The FE'ers need to get their shit straight, lol. No offense to any of them, its just everything is different from on FE'er to the other.

Yes, a mysterious force that without the stars would not form, so no nuclear reaction to make elements more complex than hydrogen (remind me how many elements are there now?) , planets would not form, and the universe would just be a cloud of stray atoms floating off ino nowhere... so yea the existence of gravity is hard to believe.

No, the non-euclidean model will do without breaking any laws of physics.  I've already floated it on the "Why ships' hulls disappear, photos from space and other mysteries" thread - I've started with simple examples of the curvature of light, as hyperbolic space-time is a big topic without differential geometry but that's where it's going.  Ultimately, it will require a singularity, but if we can let RE get away with one for the big bang, why can't FE have one of its own?

"if we can let RE get away with one for the big bang"?
How do we "get away" with it? You make it soud like a crime  ;). Big bang is one of the most widley accepted theorys of creation, and i think mentioning it isn't something to "get away" with if you mention it. Also, there is much proof for the big bang, and none for the singularity theory.

Well, I admit that it is possible, but I think it would have to be extremley stabelized for it to work. It would have to be in the exact right place, bend light exactly like that, give off constant whatever, just to make the illusion of a round earth? That sounds a lot loke intelligent design, along with the shadow object, and the like, it's as if someone or something has made all this just to study us?

Tom - according to your FE big bang diagramm i have come to the conclusion the earth was "propelled" upwards (or whatever direction you want in space). Wouldn't the velocity of the earth at some point become so little that it would be burnt up by some stars etc. or something similar?

As far as I can see, FEs havn't been able to come up with a natural explanation for any of their theories.

OK, this has gotten off topic.

My question was how comets and asteroids exist in FE hypothesis. No Big Bang and singularities.

ANd after thinking about Tom's model, it doesn't seem possible because some objects would have to be moving faster than others or have a higher rate of acceleration which I don't believe is possible, correct me if I am wrong.

(http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h101/suburbpirate/BigBang.jpg)

In accordance with the above picture, I will try and prove that Asteroids and Comets probaly can't exist in a FE model.
If you view the first picture, labelled Big Bang, it is a very generalized picture of what the Big Bang would have looked like if somehow you could have seen it.
At the Big Bang, everything exploded outwards from the center of the Big Bang, which, in FE hypothesis is considered down. At this point, everything began accelerating.
Now, if one looks at the second picture, it shows how the universe, from what I believe the FEers say, would look. Since everything began accelerating, everything would be on that line. Nothing would be inside it and nothing would be outside of it. Everything would be on the line of the circle.
So, therefore, I can come to the conclusion that there should be nothing thnat far above us, such as observable comets and asteroids, according to the FE model.
Correct me if I am wrong.

in RE, gravity is a constant force, it can be fluctuated but still remains constant unless variable will initiate a large change

acceleration is a variable increase in speed increase is speed. the increase can be constant but it does not remain the same speed at any point else it wouldn't be acceleration

think of a car getting faster, thats acceleration. think of a car on the motorway at a steady 70 miles per hour. this is not acceleration as it has already risen to its desired speed

gravity is a pulling force

it brings object closer to it's core

the faster it gets, the more pulling force it will give

therefore crushing once it accelerates over a constant speed

read the FAQ if u think im making it up :P

and yes it does make sense, u know ur wrong and denial is the first stage

acceleration is speed increasing

gravity (in FE and RE) makes things stick to the ground in basic terms

more acceleration means higher gravity

therefore the strength increases if acceleration does not stop

this force would eventually crush every living thing and eventually compressing it all ready for another big bang

logically, that is what FE leads us to

because its on the notion that more speed will produce more gravity therefore increasing the push/pull/watever into the ground. if the speed rises and never stops rising, it will inevitably crush everything on the ground because I don't know about you but my backbone can only take a certain amount of G's of pressure

im not talking about velocity

we're talking about

world moves "upwards" as it moves upwards so quickly, things are forced to the ground. for this to work, something must push down on them to counteract the move upwards (otherwise we would go same speed as the world therefore negating effect to keep us on it, so we'd float off)

example

get on a bus, sit at the back, let the bus reach 30 miles per hour. then walk to the front

what does this prove??

well if we jumped on a world that pushes us up, there is nothin to make us come back. therefore something must push us back down

now the faster we go into that "thing" keeping us down. the more pressure we'll receive

if we constantly accelerate, this pressure would continue to get more and more

well if we jumped on a world that pushes us up, there is nothin to make us come back.
You are right, we don't come back to the earth, it comes to us.

if we constantly accelerate, this pressure would continue to get more and more
If the acceleration was increasing, then yes, however, the acceleration is constant.


idiot answers there

you've proved nowt

and acceleration is the constant increase in speed

did not pass physics at school?

and acceleration is the constant increase in speed

So what?  WE CAN'T FEEL VELOCITY, ONLY ACCELERATION.  If our instantaneous velocity is 20m/s, and we continue to accelerate at 9.81m/s^2, and our instantaneous velocity at some point in the future is 3*10^7m/s, we would still only feel the 9.81m/s^2 acceleration.  The velocity does not matter.

YES i finally get to do it

use search

i've read a few posts that state if we walk off the edge of the earth, we would move at the same rate as the earth because of the "upwards" push

so if everything is being pushed up, it describes that jumping will increase our acceleration. and since there is no friction is nothingness space, would would continue to move faster than the upwards push

using FE "logic" it don't make sense

RE gravity does

You would move at the same VELOCITY that the earth had when you walked off. You would not continue to accelerate, and you would see the earth accelerating away from you.

When you jump, you increase your velocity relative to the earth.  Once your feet leave the ground, you are no longer accelerating, just moving at that constant velocity.  It will take a small amount of time for the earth to accelerate past your velocity in order to catch up to you.

ok basically im gonna get no-where by repeating myself

so think of this

if the big bang caused all the planets (which is part of FE)

what creates the acceleration????

and explosion would cause a constant speed

In accordance with the above picture, I will try and prove that Asteroids and Comets probaly can't exist in a FE model.
If you view the first picture, labelled Big Bang, it is a very generalized picture of what the Big Bang would have looked like if somehow you could have seen it.
At the Big Bang, everything exploded outwards from the center of the Big Bang, which, in FE hypothesis is considered down. At this point, everything began accelerating.
Now, if one looks at the second picture, it shows how the universe, from what I believe the FEers say, would look. Since everything began accelerating, everything would be on that line. Nothing would be inside it and nothing would be outside of it. Everything would be on the line of the circle.
So, therefore, I can come to the conclusion that there should be nothing thnat far above us, such as observable comets and asteroids, according to the FE model.
Correct me if I am wrong.

You're assuming that there is only one layer to the Big Bang. If we look up into the night sky we can quickly realize that there are many layers above us. Lightyears of layers above us. Otherwise, our sky would be quite starless.

By analogy, we can assume that the Big Bang was a continuous spout of matter and force, perhaps continuing to this very day. These multiple levels of the Big Bang would have run into each other as a direct result of the acceleration of mass, sending matter in all directions, creating potential asteroids and comets for matter further down to accelerate into.

Actually, I am telling you to look into the sky and see the many layers. According to FE, I do not believe there would be more than one layer. That is how I am trying to disprove your arguement.
In earlier arguements, and according to FE hypothesis, the stars aren't lightyears away.
So your answer is, since there is seemingly many layers of astronomical bodies, that means that there must be many layers and the Big Bang is still spouting matter? Wow

Your argument is flawed. Flat Earth literature says nothing about there being only one layer of matter to the Big Bang.

I didn't say the closest stars were were light years away, I said that there was light years of layers above us.

I don't see why a continuous Big Bang can't explain the expanding, accelerating universe. Certainly a much better explanation than Dark Energy. After all, the Big Bang is the entity which created the very fabric of space-time itself.

What you mean is the acceleration of earth causes a gravitational force in space that is exactly equal to the gravitational force the round earth would have so the comets orbit FE with the same trajectories as if the earth was round and had the same dimensions it supposedly has?
Bam.

If you knew anything about physics or the Equivalence Principle, you would know that acceleration bends space-time in such a way that causes gravitation.

Until you find yourself a modicum of education, stop posting.

Some more questions for your mighty intellect to work out.

The comet orbits what exactly?

What causes the magical curve in space time to cause the acceleration of the comet?

The acceleration of mass causes gravitation. That much is obvious to a two year old.

Unless you have something meaningful to add to the conversation, you can take your fundamentalist, poorly written, Round Earth rhetoric out of here. No one here gives two hoots about your petty little round earth beliefs. If you actually think we care enough about you to hold your hand through basic physical concepts then you are sorely mistaken.

Here's an idea. Maybe you can do a little research for your own damn self and discover the reason acceleration bends space-time. I'm not your teacher.  I'm not your father. Don't go looking for parental guidance on the internet.

You don't believe the Earth is Flat so what are you banging on about now?

Acceleration of mass causes gravitation? Wow whwy didn't I think of that. So the Comet orbits...nothing. It accelerates towards a central point in it's orbit but there is nothing at that point causing to accelerate. However do not worry because the very fact that it's accelerating means that it can accelerate and....no this is just getting too ridiculous. Did you get a 2 year old to come up with this horse manure?

If you cannot answer questions, Tom just say so. People will have much more respect for you if you just admit when you don't know the answer. Better than spouting literally anti-science and making yourself out to be a complete tool.

but wat causes the acceleration

yes it is possible that multiple big bands could of occurred. very possible because we do not know how the universe was created

but this cannot explain how something will constantly accelerate

u would need explosion after explosion after explosion to even cause this push. you'd need a constant source to accelerate
