Does this make you happy? Probably not.
.

Thank you very much Neil. Yes, this makes me very happy. :applause:

Even mud larks can be paid to leave...

As the thread shows, this concept and series is fighting the erroneous claim that satellites do not exist.
.
Now, if it were not for the incessant and retarded posts of Truth is Transitory, critics could accuse me of "making it up" and "There isn't anyone in the modern world who denies the existence of satellites."
.
But here they are, for the world to see.
.
Of course, there may be some who would claim there are no satellite-deniers here on this thread.
.
Actually, I'd rather deal with the accusation of satellite-denier than h0Ɩ0cαųst-denier.

So you are, at least in general, contending with "the other white meat" them. 

Each GNSS constellation - depends on which system you're talking about
In the U.S. they're called a GPS constellation
every GPS satellite broadcasts a “navigation message”
navigation message -- broadcast by each satellite
    -- contains the information needed to identify ALL the satellites in the constellation
    -- contains information needed to compute each satellite's approximate position in orbit

network of ground-based observing stations
constantly tracks the satellites
computes predictive models of each satellite’s orbit.
predicted orbital parameters for a given satellite
      recorded in a docuмent called an “ephemeris”
    ephemeris ------> plural = “ephemerides”
satellite orbits vary over time
each ephemeris needs to be updated regularly
    ground-based Master Control Station performs regular updates of satellite orbits
    updated orbits (ephemerides) are transmitted to the GPS satellite constellation



navigation message is broadcast by each satellite
   it includes its own ephemeris
   this ephemeris is called the “broadcast ephemeris”
          updated at frequent intervals
          contains the “almanac”
almanac is the less-frequently updated collection of the ephemerides for ALL GPS satellites in the constellation
almanac is updated at much longer intervals
orbital parameters are less accurate in almanacs than the broadcast ephemeris from each individual satellite
.

What computes each satellite's orbit information?
What does an almanac provide?
Which is plural, ephemerides or ephemeris?
What do ground-based observing stations do?
What kind of updates does a Master Control Station provide?
Where does a GPS satellite constellation obtain its ephemerides?
Does any particular satellite receive and use all the ephemerides broadcast?
What component sends out a navigation message?
What is used to compose a navigation message?
Why are GPS satellites grouped into constellations?
When a particular satellite leaves Libra and moves into Sagittarius does it change constellations?
What is the almanac a collection of?
Which is updated more often: almanac ephemerides or broadcast ephemerides?
Which is more reliable, almanac ephemerides or satellite signals?
Why bother with a less reliable set of data?

I'm not Moslem. I have nothing against pork.
.
Nor do I go around preaching, "The earth is flat!" like a Moslem.
.
How many Moslems use GNSS while they deny the existence of satellites?
.
Is Truth is Transitory a Moslem?
.
That would make a lot of sense, actually. They both act like pit bulls, as you adroitly observed!!
.

I hear you but what I'm, granted rather ineptly, trying point out is that there seems to be a "mixed signal" if you'll pardon the expression:

1. On the one hand you seem to be saying that you are, simply and solely, offering some instruction.
2. However, on the other you seem to be also acknowledging that this is an actual point of contention deliberately being offered as such, which is only reinforced by its categorization under "... errors of the modern world"; this only justifies their likewise admittedly inept as well as inane commentary, not that "they" need excuse.

If you framed it such that you were merely teaching that taught by others, regardless of its in/accuracy, then the only basis for protest would be if you were deviating from the subject matter.

At the very least you could then protest any actual irrelevancies introduced such as "that's not true!"

Example: a Catholic giving a course on Hegelian Dialectics or, more generally, Communism.

You seem rather tenacious yourself, with all due; this isn't necessarily a bad thing, and can sometimes be indispensable.

However, in the case of idiocy, such as with Flat Earth "SCIENCE!"...

So I am assuming that the photos of the ISS crossing in front of the sun were rejected as evidence. Is that correct, and if so, why?

.
As far as I could tell the flat-earthers did not specifically reject your evidence but ran off instead on a flurry of obfuscation, which is their wont when they're frustrated by hard evidence.
.
So you did a good thing. Thank you.
