<<  Irrelevant and off-topic! >>
You are unable to explain the insane claim that water stays in place in the form of oceans, sea, rivers, lakes, on the outside surface of a sphere.
That's been answered already! But the short answer is "Exactly the same thing that stops you from floating off into space, gravity! "

But why should anybody try to answer all that when you refuse to give the simplest of explanation to something fairly close to the topic?
Now stop wasting everybody's time.
But you could explain exactly your calculations leading your Sun being 600 m in diameter and 20 km, 15 km, 12 km or is it 10 km above the Earth.

And you seem to be the one repeatedly bringing up that claim as well. You were the first to mention it in this thread.

You mean that is not your claim as well?

That is, you agree that four trillion billion liters of water stay in place next to the outer surface of a sphere by PURE MAGIC?

Do you know what that means?
It isn't the original set of equations.
Instead it is a derivation based upon an assumption.


You are trolling the upper forums, yet again.

That is the basic assumption made by Maxwell and BY EVERYONE ELSE since 1861.

The original set of Maxwell's equations leads to INVARIANCE UNDER GALILEAN TRANSFORMATIONS.

Take a look at your pathetic presence here: you have accepted the Heaviside-Lorentz equations with no problem at all, yet now you are in a uproar over the REAL SET OF MAXWELLIAN EQUATIONS.

You are showing to everyone here your true colors: you are refusing to accept reality.

Yes, this is the original set of Maxwell equations.







SUPERLUMINAL WAVES WITH GALILEAN INVARIANCE.

Fully proven.

So, Newton's explanation as to the refraction of light through a prism is correct.

I have provided the references which PROVE the existence of the LOCAL-ETHER MODEL.

This ether is located above the atmosphere.

This is the Dome itself.

As for the speed of light to Venus, I have provided the GERSENSHTEIN-ZEL'DOVISH EFFECT, where photons are converted into gravitons in the presence of a strong magnetic field.


Nothing is more insane than claiming that four trillion billion liters of water stay in place on the outside surface of a sphere for five billion years.

Take a look at yourself: you are unable to provide any kind of an explanation for terrestrial gravity.

You are unable to explain the insane claim that water stays in place in the form of oceans, sea, rivers, lakes, on the outside surface of a sphere.



That's been answered already!

You have not provided any kind of an explanation.

You claimed that gravity is not attractive.

Then, you tried to use general relativity, which however is derived directly from Newton's attractive law of gravity, as plainly and directly shown in the paper quoted in my previous messages.

So we are back where we started.

Please explain to your readers how four trillion billion liters of water stay in place next to the outer surface of a sphere.

This is yet another very strange discussion where the person who posts all the mathematical formulae and continually quotes strange references appears to ignore commonly accepted principles and facts that can be checked by use of a simple telescope. Measuring is very much my thing and it's well known that radar can be used to measure and plot locations of objects both stationary and moving very precisely. I don't think there is anyone who would argue about the fairly basic principles of Radar which were first put to use here in the UK during the early part of WW2 to great effect. A source produces electromagnetic waves they travel in a specific direction and if they bounce off any object in their path the reflected waves are picked up and the position of the object doing the reflecting is determined. Since WW2 the technology has evolved greatly and is used in a wide variety of applications. Because it has been in use for over 80 years the underlying physics is well understood. I think that is a given. One of the areas where it is used is Astronomy as the original post mentioned. The moon being relatively close was an obvious target and the distance to the moon and its dimensions have been long established. The question regarding the distance to the moon is one that is not open for debate as which ever method you choose to use from one of the following:
Radar
Laser
Parallax
Using lunar eclipses
Experimentation involving hi res photography, GPS and the Moons occlusion of Regulus.
etc, as there are a number of other methods.
 Which ever method you choose you are going to come up with more or less the same answer. I always think if you approach a problem, the distance to the Moon, and you attempt to solve this by using a number of very different methods that all yield the same result within a fairly tight tolerance band then you can assume that the distance that was arrived at is a fairly accurate one.
To say the Moon is only a few Kilometres above the surface of the earth is just plain silly as this ignores all the know facts and the measurements arrived at by a number of different methods.
The distance to the moon is 384,400 Kilometres with a diameter of 1,737 Kilometres.

In regard to the jet engine, to set the record straight, this was first patented by Frank Whittle in 1930. ( apologies to  Maxime Guillaume 1921.)
This post was produced without resorting to pages of meaningless mathematical mumbo jumbo but rather just stuck to plain facts.
Really…..what a laugh!!!

You haven't debunked anything at all.

The video starting at 15:20 shows very clearly the passage of the jet plane above a balloon whose maximum altitude is 4,000 ft. The altimeter shows some 7,000 ft.

That is the real altitude of that plane, which was flying at cruising speed.

These are the facts.

When and where did you debunk anything?

Are you sure you are posting in the right thread?

Have YOU even read the paper?
Just look at even the title, "From Newton’s Universal Gravitation to Einstein’s Geometric Theory of Gravity by Donald H. Kobe and Ankit Srivastava".

That paper does not derive General Relativity "from Newton's attractive law of gravity" but traces the development of General Relativity.
If you bothered to read the paper you might learn that Donald H. Kobe and Ankit Srivastava show that under GR gravitation is an inertial resulting from the curvature of spacetime.

The intrinsic curvature of four-dimensional spacetime must involve the second derivatives of the metric component g00 with respect to all spacetime coordinates.

You haven't explained anything at all!

This is the crux of the problem.

You tried to use relativity, but it is based totally on Newton's attractive gravity model.

So we are back where we started.

Please explain to your readers how four trillion billion liters of water stay in place next to the outer surface of a sphere, for five billion years.

But are YOU any more able to explain why "water stays in place in the form of oceans, sea, rivers, lakes, on the surface of your earth"?

The surface of the Earth is flat!

No, it is NOT! And the paper quoted in "your previous messages" does not "plainly and directly show" that General Relativity "is derived directly from Newton's attractive law of gravity"

BUT IT DOES!

That paper does not derive General Relativity "from Newton's attractive law of gravity" but traces the development of General Relativity.

No, it derives Einstein's gravitational field equation DIRECTLY FROM NEWTON'S LAW OF GRAVITATION.

If you bothered to read the paper you might learn that Donald H. Kobe and Ankit Srivastava show that under GR gravitation is an inertial resulting from the curvature of spacetime.

The authors derive Einstein's gravitational field equation DIRECTLY FROM NEWTON'S LAW OF GRAVITATION.

The Laplacian of g00 measures the curvature and is derived from the Poisson equation, which in turn is derived directly from Newton's attractive gravity model.


Now, the proof.

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1309.4789.pdf

From Newton’s Universal Gravitation to Einstein’s Geometric Theory of Gravity

From the very start, section 2, the authors indicate and do mention that NEWTON'S APPROACH IS BASED TOTALLY ON THE ATTRACTIVE LAW OF GRAVITATION.


"In this paper Einstein’s gravitational field equation is obtained from a step-by-step generalization of Newtonian gravitation.

We thus obtain a single component of Einstein’s gravitational field equation in local coordinates. From the principle of general covariance applied to a single component, we obtain all tensor components of Einstein’s gravitational field equation.

The result is Einstein’s equation for the gravitational field."


EINSTEIN'S GRAVITATIONAL FIELD EQUATION OBTAINED DIRECTLY FROM NEWTON'S ATTRACTIVE LAW OF GRAVITY.


"In most presentations of Einstein’s general theory of relativity[8] his gravitational field equation is given in tensor form as embodying some general principles.
It is then shown that in the limit of weak gravity and small speeds it reduces to Newtonian gravity.[9, 10, 11, 12] This top-down approach makes it difficult for the student to understand the gravitational field equation. In this paper we use a bottom-up approach to obtain Einstein’s field equation from Newton’s universal gravitation."


"Newton’s universal law of gravity[1] states that the attractive force F01(x0)..."


EVERYTHING THAT FOLLOWS IS BASED STRICTLY AND DIRECTLY ON THIS ATTRACTIVE GRAVITY MODEL.

You claimed that attractive gravity does not exist.

So there isn't any attractive gravity, we have you on record again.

Fine - you have ME on record! So what? I said that "there isn't any attractive gravity" big deal!

I said that "there isn't any attractive gravity" big deal!

Then, General Relativity is just as wrong.

Now, explain to your readers how four trillion billion liters of water stay in place next to the outer surface of a sphere, for five billion years.

Five billion years is a bit of an exaggeration. Firstly the Earth is only 4.6 billion years old (geological rock analysis tells us that) and there was no water on Earth for about the few millions of years.  It was too hot.

General relativity HAS NO MECHANISM WHATSOEVER TO DESCRIBE GRAVITY.

General Relativity postulates that gravity is a curvature of spacetime created by mass, but it does not explain how that curvature occurs. Actually, it is just a DESCRIPTION that leaves unanswered the key question of exactly how matter affects space and time.

Dr. Erik Verlinde:

General Relativity remains just a description of the force we call gravity. It leaves unanswered the key question of exactly how matter affects space and time.


General Relativity HAS TO rely totally on Newton's ATTRACTIVE MODEL.

This is what you wrote earlier:

The huge mass of the Earth bends spacetime

Explain to your readers HOW mass bends spacetime. You haven't done so at all.

No one else can explain how mass/matter interacts with spacetime, not even Einstein.

Einstein could not explain how mass warps space. What's worse is that with the advent of the Aharonov-Bohm effect (electromagnetic and gravitational) physicists found out that Einstein's general relativity is incomplete, since it cannot detect the gravitational potential:

G. 't Hooft discovered that "by using light rays alone, one cannot detect the scalar component of the energy-momentum tensor":

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1410.6675.pdf

Feynman resolved the energy-momentum tensor problem by the field approach: the gravity force between Newton's apple and the Earth is caused by the exchange of gravitons. Gravitons (real and virtual) are mediators of the gravitational interaction.

Then, you have a huge problem: how do gravitons produce curvature?

Again, general relativity DOES NOT offer any kind of a mechanism.

That is why physicists have to rely on Newton's attractive gravitational model.

Exactly proven in this paper.

Einstein's gravitational field equation is derived directly from the attractive gravitation equation of Newton.

Incorrect!
"Four trillion billion liters of water stay in place next to the outer surface of a sphere" by exactly the same thing that stops YOU flying off into space and that is gravitation.

Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation is extraordinarily accurate for velocities << c and masses that are "not too large".
When velocities become appreciable compared to c or when close to huge masses Einstein's General Relativity gives the best current solution.

If YOU don't like it, tough cheese, as they say in the classics.

Now stop posting irrelevant material in this topic.

If you want to go on and on about gravitation make you own topic.
In that, you might start by explaining what holds your sun 20 km, 15 km, 12 km or is it 10 km (you seem to have NO idea which) above the Earth.

And you seem to be the one repeatedly bringing up that claim as well. You were the first to mention it in this thread.
You mean that is not your claim as well?
No, it is your claim.
If you want to defend it, go ahead.
Otherwise, stop bringing it up and start dealing with your other claims.

Do you know what that means?
It isn't the original set of equations.
Instead it is a derivation based upon an assumption.

You are trolling the upper forums, yet again.
No, that would still be you.
You fully admit that it is based upon an assumption, the very assumption which you are trying to prove.

i.e. you may as well be saying this:
"I'm right. If you assume I am right, then it clearly shows that I am right."

It is entirely circular and proving nothing.

Equations will not help you there.
Instead what you need is evidence.
i.e. if you want to prop up the aether model (which is directly contradicted by your equations) then you need to show that the speed of light is dependent upon your speed relative to the aether.
if you want to prop up the ballistic model (which doesn't use the aether at all) then you need to show that the speed of light is dependent upon the speed of the source.

But you have done neither.

Nothing is more insane than claiming that four trillion billion liters of water stay in place on the outside surface of a sphere for five billion years.
Sure there is. Someone repeatedly bringing it up in a thread where it doesn't belong and someone repeatedly trying to use themselves as a reference and pretending circular reasoning is valid and proves their assumption is true.


Now care to actually try and address the issues raised, rather than continuing to spam?
Again:
Where is your evidence for this magic dome of impossibility?
Where is your math to show the time values obtained for the moon and Venus?
Where is your explanation to avoid the fact that the prism splits light based upon the refractive index being dependent upon the wavelength?
Where is your explanation, which doesn't rely upon the variable index of refraction to explain why the prism is needed?
Where is your explanation, which doesn't rely upon the variable index of refraction to explain why red is on one side and blue is on the other?

Your video source for whatever has been completely debunked

You haven't debunked anything at all.

The video starting at 15:20 shows very clearly the passage of the jet plane above a balloon whose maximum altitude is 4,000 ft. The altimeter shows some 7,000 ft.

That is the real altitude of that plane, which was flying at cruising speed.

These are the facts.

When and where did you debunk anything?

Are you sure you are posting in the right thread?

You have not done your homework again. The altimeter he shows is the pressurization of the cabin which is pressurized to an "altitude" between 6-8000 ft. Hence his reading of 7000.

Have you ever flown on a plane? Do you not understand why a cabin is pressurized? And do you really believe every pilot, ever air traffic controller, every manufacturer of aircraft thinks their plane is at one altitude when they are really at another one 10's of thousands of feet off? How would they calculate their fuel? How would planes not be crashing into each other left, right, and center if the true altitudes are that wrong?

That's your logic? And all based upon a video of some nut job who thinks planes don't use fuel, the windows should be bigger than they are for reasons, planes aren't really as big as we think they are, etc., etc., etc.,

He was measuring the cabin pressure. How do you not get that? I thought you were smarter than that. Apparently I was wrong.

Go ahead, hang your theories on that guy's miserable video. Your credibility as a scientist and thinker just plummeted.

In the mean time, here's a debunking of your video and everything Enslaved by No Media has ever said about aviation.

~15 kilometers?! Like less than two Everests?

What the hell?

Like, if you drove around you would see the sun rise and recede faster than distant mountains. Holy shit that is easy to disprove.

Sandokhan, how dare you peddle your faulty wares here? You tried to convince a peer group on another forum, and got locked out, right? So even though you know you are wrong, you continue as if it makes it okay?
Getting locked out of an internet forum is proof of what?

After reading whole thread, i can say it is realy helpfull. It answered some questions i had about C.C Su's papers. (
https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=83972.msg2218541#msg2218541 )

But math and quotes sandokhan posted form "From Newton’s Universal Gravitation to Einstein’s Geometric Theory of Gravity" are mainly unanswered. For example:

Quote
"In this paper Einstein’s gravitational field equation is obtained from a step-by-step generalization of Newtonian gravitation.

We thus obtain a single component of Einstein’s gravitational field equation in local coordinates. From the principle of general covariance applied to a single component, we obtain all tensor components of Einstein’s gravitational field equation.

The result is Einstein’s equation for the gravitational field
