@Fading DAILY REMINDER GRAVITY IS A JOKE THAT CAN BE DEFEATED WITH A CHILDREN'S HELIUM BALLOON

I haven't found any balls on amazon

2019-04-15 13:11:05 UTC  

Unless there's something more to that gif are we just ignoring buoyancy?

2019-04-15 13:11:07 UTC  

might have to get it custom made

2019-04-15 13:11:17 UTC  

yeah that seems like something you'd have to commission

2019-04-15 13:11:20 UTC  

I'm not quite sure why flat earthers deny gravity. Gravity doesn't really change whether or not the earth is flat.

2019-04-15 13:11:50 UTC  

@Fading Sheeple got it wrong because adding balloons of the same mass and volume does not change the density

2019-04-15 13:11:50 UTC  

@Bannebie it depends on what their explanations for the other planets and things are

2019-04-15 13:12:12 UTC  

@Hamburger Guy That makes even less sense than I thought but okay

2019-04-15 13:12:13 UTC  

@Fading Except we don't know what planets are

2019-04-15 13:12:32 UTC  

@Hamburger Guy You don't understand negative relative density

2019-04-15 13:12:35 UTC  

@Bannebie My point is the source of denial of gravity can be dependent on the explanations for planets that flat earthers provide, which gravity might prove an issue with

@Fading LOGICAL FALLACY: SHIFTING THE BURDEN OF PROOF: https://imgur.com/tSgXe5B

2019-04-15 13:13:04 UTC  

@Fading Burden of proof is on you to PROVE gravity

2019-04-15 13:13:12 UTC  

Then they should find a different explanation for planets, because gravity is simply an effect we observe

2019-04-15 13:13:13 UTC  

If I have a ton of balloons of the same density individually adding more balloons will not change the density

2019-04-15 13:13:16 UTC  

Do the math

2019-04-15 13:13:45 UTC  

You mean balloons filled with WATER?

2019-04-15 13:13:50 UTC  

right you won't take off no

2019-04-15 13:14:00 UTC  

The point is that we have no idea what planets are, so using gravity to explain anything about planets is senseless.

2019-04-15 13:14:08 UTC  

How would Helium be different

2019-04-15 13:14:21 UTC  

10 fold lower density than air

2019-04-15 13:14:29 UTC  

@Bannebie So just to be aware of what we're talking about here, you don't believe we know whether or not planets are large masses in space?

@Fading 😂

2019-04-15 13:15:12 UTC  

The light you see in the sky weighs NOTHING

2019-04-15 13:15:13 UTC  

it's light

2019-04-15 13:15:13 UTC  

Yes, I don't believe anyone knows what exactly planets are since there's no way we can directly observe their size or weight.

2019-04-15 13:15:31 UTC  

@Bannebie You can measure angular size

2019-04-15 13:15:44 UTC  

Yeah uh you can view their size with telescopes lol

2019-04-15 13:16:02 UTC  

Observable testable repeatable, that's science

2019-04-15 13:16:05 UTC  

Yes, but that's just the *apparent* size.

2019-04-15 13:16:09 UTC  

@Fading Where's the testable and repeatable part?

2019-04-15 13:16:17 UTC  

Oh whoopsie you forgot that bit didn't you

2019-04-15 13:16:21 UTC  
2019-04-15 13:16:24 UTC  

SCIENCE

2019-04-15 13:16:26 UTC  

Testable and repeatable part of what?

2019-04-15 13:16:26 UTC  

For the *actual* size you'd need the distance, which can't be measured

2019-04-15 13:17:10 UTC  

If I can SEE a streetlamp 10km away, am I allowed to say it's a burning ball of fusion gas? Or if I climbed that lamp post and disassembled it and tested what it's made of, would I find a bunch of LEDs?

2019-04-15 13:17:12 UTC  

Well we use planetary orbits combined with angular size to calculate a planet's true size

2019-04-15 13:17:33 UTC  

@Human Sheeple We're talking about different things, I'm just saying we have _some_ information of what a planet is whereas Bannebie appears to be claiming we have _none_
