i explained that yes

2018-10-16 06:05:09 UTC  

it propels something forward by pushing off something

2018-10-16 06:05:17 UTC  

yep

2018-10-16 06:05:24 UTC  

there isn't enough surface area to propel the rocket forward with nothing to push off of

2018-10-16 06:05:35 UTC  

it pushes off of the fuel coming out of the nozzle

2018-10-16 06:05:52 UTC  

just like in this latest video the air balloon will not move the car in a vacuum

2018-10-16 06:06:07 UTC  

propellant of the air won't push it forward just like a rocket won't

2018-10-16 06:06:33 UTC  

are you comparing blowing air to push a car to a rocket?

2018-10-16 06:06:33 UTC  

look at latest video

2018-10-16 06:07:09 UTC  

I'm comparing stuff that works in atmosphere that doesn't work in a vacuum

2018-10-16 06:07:22 UTC  

both throwing stuff out the back end to push it forward

2018-10-16 06:07:54 UTC  

(propellant)

2018-10-16 06:08:03 UTC  

a vacuum is one of the lightest things out there, so a helium balloon wouldn't float

2018-10-16 06:08:04 UTC  

and both are gas in nature

2018-10-16 06:08:16 UTC  

a drone wont fly because there is no medium

2018-10-16 06:08:18 UTC  

vacuum is basically nothing

2018-10-16 06:08:21 UTC  

yep

2018-10-16 06:08:36 UTC  

a rocket, generating its own thrust, would fly in the vacuum

2018-10-16 06:08:54 UTC  

don't think so

2018-10-16 06:09:07 UTC  

thrust needs something to push off of

2018-10-16 06:09:09 UTC  

here, tell me how rockets work

2018-10-16 06:09:19 UTC  

what they do to generate thrust

2018-10-16 06:09:42 UTC  

they are propelling gas out the back end to push it forward

2018-10-16 06:09:50 UTC  

thats all you need to say

2018-10-16 06:09:51 UTC  

in an atmosphere they have something to push off of

2018-10-16 06:09:59 UTC  

and something to push into

2018-10-16 06:10:06 UTC  

which slows down the rocket

2018-10-16 06:10:15 UTC  

in a vacuum they have nothing to push off of

2018-10-16 06:10:18 UTC  

rocket won't move

2018-10-16 06:10:21 UTC  

and nothing to push into

2018-10-16 06:10:34 UTC  

you have a guy with a master's degree in technical physics

2018-10-16 06:10:42 UTC  

telling you it won't move

2018-10-16 06:10:50 UTC  

lol

2018-10-16 06:10:52 UTC  

did you watch the videos I linked?

2018-10-16 06:10:52 UTC  

i saw your example already

2018-10-16 06:10:59 UTC  

i did for a bit

2018-10-16 06:11:18 UTC  

one guy with a MSc > 100% of rocket physicists

2018-10-16 06:11:23 UTC  

just showed a disturbing portrait of a man

2018-10-16 06:11:45 UTC  

this guy has a master's degree in technical physics

2018-10-16 06:11:52 UTC  

let me see

2018-10-16 06:11:57 UTC  

he's telling you it has nothign to push off of, it won't work
