Then we are inside a vacuum, as you both keep saying and protesting.
We are a cell that is in suspended animation, kind of thing. When a vacuum is mentioned...people immediately think of a vacuum made in atmospheric pressure...but as I've explained before, we cannot make a vacuum down here, we can just evacuate molecules in a chamber.
Outside of this cell of ours, space does not exist. it's nothing. It's a true vacuum. We cannot see through it but it does make a perfect barrier of a mirrored reflection of all of the things that are happening inside this cell, except our eyes cannot see the lesser light reflections, only the brighter ones.
You're going to have to explain how 'expansion of molecules' is occurring if a component is air-tight, given that internal pressure would remain consistent, and how it would 'tear the hull apart' if they aren't, given the molecules could escape through the nearest hole should it not be. And that's assuming your utter nonsense 'exponentially expanding molecules' claptrap is real.
We could argue this bit till the end of days but all I'll say is....Look at a helium balloon before lift off and how flimsy it is and how expanded it becomes, the higher it goes. Yes we know a rockets skin is thicker but that skin is not overly thick when compared to the fuel it carries, plus it's carrying pressurised air at higher than atmospheric pressure. It will be torn apart. Say it won't if you want...but we shall have to beg to differ on that.
Also, what keeps a vessel from travelling laterally to the dome?
The sides of the dome are no different. It's still the same molecules of gases, so the same situation arises. Plus a rocket is highly unlikely to hold a lateral path unless it was finding it's way to a target on earth, not above or towards the side of the dome.
Light but dense? You are now being oxymoronic. Next you will tell us it is cold but warm and liquid but solid.
What material do you think the 'underdome' is made of?
Yeah, ok, let's forget dense, let's just say it's a light dormant solid.
I don't know what the under dome is made of, I can only assume it is made of something like diamond. If it were possible to view the earth from outside, which it isn't...but let's pretend it is....what you would actually see, is a glass looking ball or cell and within that cell, it would resemble a kind of unshaken snow globe..
All hypothetical of course, so it's basically down to the imagination.
The diamond under dome is most probably the purest diamond there is or maybe a more purer crystal. We see the remnants of that as super dense rocks are spewed out in volcanoes, etc or under sea volcanoes, which we see the small crystals of various densities that we call jewels.
Not necessarily. A ballistic arc is merely one that follows a certain path. While, yes, the idea would be that the ICBM would eventually come down, if it travels far enough in any direction, it will make it to the dome. For example, the side of the dome, where the 'pressure' and 'expanding molecules' nonsense should not be an issue.
It won't make it to the dome. It won't even make it into the ultra thin air before it's ejected rocket fuel becomes pointless against the atmosphere below it. Yes I'm well aware that you all say rockets don't need atmosphere to work. I know different, but let's just beg to differ on this, as I've been through it and diagrammed it, time and time again.
Scepti, about how far up and out do you think this Ice Dome of yours rests? About what is its radius from the North Pole, for example?
Hard to say. I can only guess, so here's my guess.
I'd say that the full earth is about 4 times bigger than we are told it is.
The part that we live on and can reach, alive maybe something like 48,000 miles around. The full size to the actual dome barrier, (which we will never reach), maybe, could be approximately 100,000 miles around.
