Proof of no gravity

  • From spaceweather.com today:

    What's wrong with this picture?

    This is an amateur, non-NASA photo. The curvature of the horizon is from a Go-Pro camera attached to a balloon. But, the false curvature of the straight horizon line isn't what is wrong with the picture.

    It's the ring. The ring that is NOT FLOATING.

    If there was a force called gravity that is somehow stopped in space so that everything "floats" why isn't the ring floating?


    I'll explain.

  • The ring is not "floating" because it has no velocity.

    It is motionless because it ascended due to the buoyancy of the balloon.


    What we call "zero gravity" when we see astronauts in LEO is not actually caused by a loss of gravity.

    It is caused by the extreme velocity of the vehicle they are in, a vehicle that is moving in an environment with no air density nor air resistance.


    In other words, an aircraft in LEO has been propelled to an incredible speed by a rocket and so it is in a continuous state
    of falling in the horizontal direction.


    The exact same thing would happen if you were in an elevator car at the top of the Empire State building and the cables were cut: you would float as the elevator car fell downward.

  • Therefore, "zero gravity" is not really a point where gravity "stops working."


    It's the craft falling and staying in motion because there is no drag to stop it. And it will continue in motion like this, called "orbit," until something applies "brakes" to slow it down.

    The balloon however, was not propelled by a rocket.  It has no velocity,  no speed. Therefore, it will ascend until the temps or pressure burst the balloon and it will immediately fall back to earth. 

    It falls back to earth simply due to the fact that the ring weighs more than the vacuum. It does not fall due to a mysterious force called gravity. 


    And there is no "point" in altitude which one can cross over and suddenly become "weightless."


    This photo is a simple proof there is no such thing as gravity.

  • Gravity is over.  Its a non-thing, and the supposed operation is full of holes.  Scientists cannot show it, measure it, or describe it without a microphone.  The anomalies are myriad.  Even modern scientists know that it doesn't exist.  How does the ring remain suspended in "zero gravity"?  Well, some scientists are backing away from gravity big time.  Like this guy:
     


    “We’ve known for a long time gravity doesn’t exist,” Dr. Verlinde said, “It’s time to yell it.”


    Verlinde is decent enough to admit the common notion of gravity is false.  Still, these scientists try to veil the truth by inventing new ones:

    From Wiki:
    Erik Peter Verlinde (Dutch: [ˈeːrɪk ˈpeːtər vərˈlɪndə]; born 21 January 1962) is a Dutch theoretical physicist and string theorist. He is the identical twin brother of physicist Herman Verlinde. The Verlinde formula, which is important in conformal field theory and topological field theory, is named after him. His research deals with string theory, gravity, black holes and cosmology. Currently,[not verified in body] he works at the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the University of Amsterdam.
    At a symposium at the Dutch Spinoza-institute on 8 December 2009 he introduced a theory of entropic gravity. In this theory, gravity exists because of a difference in concentration of information in the empty space between two masses and its surroundings; he also extrapolates this to general relativity and quantum mechanics. He said in an interview with the newspaper de Volkskrant,[1] "On the smallest level Newton's laws don't apply, but they do for apples and planets. You can compare this to the pressure of a gas. Molecules themselves don't have any pressure, but a barrel of gas has." It appears that Verlinde's approach to explaining gravity leads naturally to the correct observed strength of dark energy.[2]



    What is being said here? It appears...?  The laws apply for apples and planets? It's like gas pressure? 

    Modern science is certainly full of hot gas.

    Thumbs up since I can't. 
    Neil cannot explain why the ring is not floating on his so-called globe, when it ought to be.

    .
    Explain what? No data is given for your "ring" photo. On what basis do you claim the ring "ought to be floating?"
    What was the environment for the photo? What was the elevation? Where was the location? How do you know it wasn't CGI?
    .
    Flat-earthers refuse to recognize any photos of earth, claiming they're CGI but turn around and use CGI for their own purposes.
    .
    Hypocrites.

    .
    This is a pretty good example of how flat-earthers in their attempt to cherry-pick topics to their advantage, due to their ignorance of the real world, fail in their weak attempt.
    .
    No one "floats" inside a falling elevator car as you smugly predict, Smugley. FAIL.

    There is nothing "scientific" about flat-earthdom syndrome, it's just a mental disorder.
    .
    Psychologists are going to need a term for this condition, and "flat-earthdom syndrome" might be too politically incorrect. 
    .
    Which is too bad, because it really nails the topic.
