Velocity is a vector, thus having a direction, while acceleration is a scaler or something. 9.8m/s/s is an acceleration. It adds 9.8 m/s every second.ChaosRequiem flat Earth people cant dispute red/blue shifts. As you can see "the engineer" has no idea what he is talking about. He says the starts can move relative to us. That would lead to no shifting of the wavelength.Well, in the RE, the stars are moving relative to us, yet there is shift. I think you don't know what relative means.QuoteThe fact that they think the Earth is accelerating upwards also shows this. I would be able to jump out of a plane and hit the ground at 9.8 m/s since I wouldn't accelerate any more then Earth.I don't know what I am talking about? You do know that there is a difference between velocity and acceleration, right?
You mean besides the fact that GPS still works on every square inch of the earth as long as 4 satellites can be seen.As long as 4 transmitters can be seen at start up and three thereafter, yes.
Everything in the FAQ is hypotheses, and hypotheses can NEVER EVER EVER be proven!Yeah, we all totally know that hyptheses can't turn into theories and laws.
Gravity is not an example of this, obviously.
I once hiked a hill near San Francisco, by the Golden Bridge. From there, you can clearly see from one end of the edge of the horizon... the city, and all the way across the CURVATURE of the world to out into the pacific ocean... there is no doubt you can clearly see a curve on the horizon.
What is this curve?
You mean besides the fact that GPS still works on every square inch of the earth as long as 4 satellites can be seen. I sure wish my cell phone worked everywhere, but then again it actually uses towers. Also why would countries that hate us allow us to build towers on there land?QuoteThe GPS argument is a favorite of mine.
please share your stand on GPS
Accurate clocks+transmitter+known position+receiver+computer+clock=position of receiver.
There is no part of the GPS system that requires that the transmitter be in orbit.
The feel free to post it. Then I will post on how GPS works with the atomic clocks and all. And now GPS works on ever single inch of the plant and how if it was using towers it wouldn't. The GPS satellites orbit above the Earth. They have a known location. They broadcast the time. The GPS receiver reads the time and calculates how far it is from the satellite. The satellites are moving so fast time dilation has to be taken into account to get an accuracy in feet. Everyone knows moving clocks tick slower.And all my other arguments you skipped?The GPS argument is a favorite of mine.
As I constantly state:And all my other arguments you skipped?

Google does not own any satellites.No way you are a real Engineer. Why can people see satalites at night? Why can people see the spaceship orbiting? GPS does use satellites. There are many expirements to prove the Earth is round, besides just looking outside. I cant believe what I read on this site. I think people take up the argument that the Earth is flat, just to have something to do.
