Gravity, according to an FEer
« on: April 10, 2009, 07:06:16 PM »
Before I start, please don't send me any links to any "Fact" page.  I read all that stuff before, I just want a few things clarified by some of you FEers out there.


In a round Earth universe, we believe gravity to be caused by both mass and distance.

In a flat Earth universe, you believe the Earth does not have a gravitational pull.  Although, you believe other masses do have a gravitational pull.  I would like to know what this is based off of, why these particular masses have a gravitational pull and then I would like to know the causes of gravity for those particular masses.

it probably doesn't fit in the FET so they made it up to make the cogs of the FE machine run more smoothly
There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of creatures Chuck Norris has allowed to live.
Uh, first of all you're an idiot.

I believe the earth likely does exhibit an indiscernible gravitation. Also, the infinite plane theory features earth producing gravitation.

The following facts might be of help to you:

The current model accepted by the FET society, that of a travelling Earth at the speed of light through space, not to mention the other facts (50 km diameter sun) is wrong, that is why there is no end in sight to these discussions.

The correct model is this: the Flat Earth in the center of the Universe absolutely stationary, with the Sun/Moon/Planets/Stars orbiting above it.

There is no such thing as an attractive gravity, please read this, starting here:

G.B. Airy experiment of 1871:

'Airy's failure' (Reference - Proc. Roy. Soc. London v 20 p 35). Telescopes have to be very slightly tilted to get the starlight going down the axis of the tube because of the earth's 'speed around the sun'. Airy filled a telescope with water that greatly slowed down the speed of the light inside the telescope and found that he did not have to change the angle of the telescope. This showed that the starlight was already coming in at the original measured angle so that no change was needed. This demonstrated that it was the stars moving relative to a stationary earth and not the fast orbiting earth moving relative to the comparatively stationary stars. If it was the telescope moving he would have had to change the angle.

(Imagine the telescope like a tube, sloped so that the light from one star hits the bottom of the tube. Even if the starlight is slowed down inside the tube (using water), it will still hit the bottom of the tube because its direction is already determined. If it were the tube that was moving, slowing down the starlight would mean that the angle of the tube would have to change for the light to hit the bottom of the tube.)

It is interesting that the original short two page report merely lists the results and discusses the accuracy of the telescope used. There is not the slightest reference to the astonishing result that this experiment demonstrates - that the stars are moving round the stationary earth.

Airy's experiment proved that the starlight was already coming into the earth at an angle, being carried along by the rotating aether.

Until we truly understand all the mechanics of gravity and gravitation, we will never know why the earth lacks gravity while other objects do.

The model currently accepted (why, we are still wondering) by FES can be proved to be wrong quite easily, if we just take into account the orbits of the Sun/Moon/Planets, above the flat earth.

That the earth is flat is very easy to show, the supporting theory is what makes the whole thing a joke in the eyes of the round earth proponents; once the correct model is accepted, there is no limit to what could be done...

Let us take as an example the western shoreline of Lake Ontario:

Here, once and for all, the extraordinary proof that there is no curvature at the surface of the Earth.

Mississauga - Toronto 26.4 km, curvature of 13.6 meters

Port Credit - Toronto 14.4 km, curvature of 4 meters

Some photos are taken from a distance of over 20 km, but, for the sake of our discussion, we will assume all photographs were taken from the 14.4 km distance.

Then, on a round earth, we should see: AN ASCENDING SLOPE, A MIDPOINT VISUAL OBSTACLE OF 4 METERS, AND NOTHING UNDER 6 METERS FROM THE OTHER SHORE.

ALL PHOTOGRAPHS WERE TAKEN FROM THE BEACH.

Here now is the ultimate proof that the Earth is Flat:

Map of Lake Ontario:

Now, let us visit Beamer Falls, Grimsby, Lake Ontario, 45 meters in height.




http://www.flickr.com/photos/suckamc/53037827/

Beamer?s Falls #071114
River Forty Mile Creek
Class Ramp
Size Medium
Height: 45
Crest: 20
The Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority acquired Beamer Memorial Conservation Area in 1964, to protect and preserve the Niagara Escarpment and the Forty-Mile Creek valley system. The site is home to a variety of Carolinian plants and wildlife.

One of the best proofs that there is no curvature over lake Ontario; from 45 meters, we need another 10 meters just to reach the top of the curvature, right in front of you, and then miss the bottom 65 meters of the buildings in Toronto (the visual obstacle). But there is no curvature, no midpoint 55 meter obstacle, the Toronto downtown buildings visible top to bottom. Of course, if you still do not believe it, you are free to go there and see it for yourself.

Here is Beamer Falls:

So you agree THERE is a solar system, meaning objects spin around a real sun? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_system

As far as the age of the universe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_universe, its been worked on. Strange that every scientist in the world never noticed the earth accellerating at 9.8m/s/s as youd think that would come into the calculations.

And as far as black holes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_holes there appears to be at the center of each galaxy, and since we have brilliant examples such as Cygnus X-1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cygnus_X-1 we can make guesses. Also, strange that they say that you need something larger then 40 solar masses to create a black hole, as that would imply a much bigger sun then the FE one.

No, but REers do, so I feel comfortable using the term "solar system" when talking about RET.

All in freefall, are they?

And as far as black holes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_holes there appears to be at the center of each galaxy, and since we have brilliant examples such as Cygnus X-1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cygnus_X-1 we can make guesses.

Please explain how we can guess what happens inside a black hole from observations of emissions from the accretion disk. Also, stellar collapse is only one way in which physicists have theorised that black holes may be formed. It is possible, at least in theory, for a black hole of any mass to exist.

There are no black holes, the complete proof:

http://theflatearthsociety.net/forum/index.php?topic=688.0


Some papers are from Charles Bert Schreiber - who for the record - spent most of his late life writing papers AGAINST currently accepted theories on most things and even then, he started writing scientific research papers AFTER he retired, so how long exactly had he been active in the field?

Stephen J Crothers wrote some of the other papers, and I dislike his attitude:

"So if it's a fight they want then it's a fight they'll get. Pasty-faced softies however, cloistered away in universities are not much of a challenge; but there are so many of them, like cane toads in the breeding season. And so I now make no bones about how I view blokes who, like K. Thorne and Ned Wright, prance about with long pony tails and matching sandals, or wear earings and otherwise dress and behave like girls (most "male" physicsts nowadays)."

I have read what he has written, but alas the math is above me. I do await the conclusion to this, but just taking what he sais as "proof" of lack of black holes is liek dismissing a RE based on the "conspiracy" ie you cant do that, so how about we all wait how Crothers first fairs in the scientific community, hey.

The FE model of the universe is geofocused, not geocentric.  I don't believe there's any reason to assume that the Earth is in the center of the universe; all that we know for sure is that rest of the observable universe orbits above us at some height around a fixed point directly above the center of the Earth (the Celestial Hub).  But who's to say that the observable universe is even all that's out there?
