What assumptions are being made? What can we actually observe?

2019-08-28 03:25:15 UTC  

You'll find out quickly that there actually is no celestial parallax and all distances are assumed

2019-08-28 03:25:40 UTC  

It's more likely the objects in the sky are just really small specks not far away

2019-08-28 03:26:24 UTC  

You could be actually just be looking at the ceiling of an enclosure

2019-08-28 03:30:14 UTC  

key word is “could”

2019-08-28 03:30:56 UTC  

Well you would need evidence otherwise

2019-08-28 03:31:09 UTC  

I could be black, but there is no evidence

2019-08-28 03:31:16 UTC  

No reason to believe so

2019-08-28 03:31:16 UTC  

lol is anyone here flat earther im round earther willing to debate civililly

2019-08-28 03:31:34 UTC  

@racecartacocat read the book I posted

2019-08-28 03:32:19 UTC  

m8 this was made in 1922

2019-08-28 03:32:33 UTC  

I could be totally wrong but

2019-08-28 03:32:48 UTC  

The very real fact that all observable science requires is that pressure is sealed by a container

2019-08-28 03:33:00 UTC  

That we experience and can demonstrate

2019-08-28 03:33:03 UTC  

ah the vacuum argument

2019-08-28 03:33:13 UTC  

Nothing about space is something we can demonstrate

2019-08-28 03:33:19 UTC  

as in?

2019-08-28 03:33:29 UTC  

The medium is a fairytale

2019-08-28 03:33:43 UTC  

We can demonstrate that rockets work in vacuums

2019-08-28 03:33:48 UTC  

exactly

2019-08-28 03:33:50 UTC  

plus

2019-08-28 03:33:55 UTC  

the atmosphere isn't a constant pressure

2019-08-28 03:34:02 UTC  

it gradually decreases in pressure with altitude

2019-08-28 03:34:04 UTC  

which proves that it is possible to go into space

2019-08-28 03:34:12 UTC  

Via rocket

2019-08-28 03:34:22 UTC  

so there's no huge pressure difference between the edge of our atmosphere and the beginning of a near-vacuum that is space

2019-08-28 03:34:36 UTC  

Oh yeah well my unicorn knows how to use a time machine

2019-08-28 03:34:41 UTC  

?

2019-08-28 03:35:14 UTC  

Rockets don't thrust in vacuums unless you can create a medium to push off

2019-08-28 03:35:24 UTC  

They thrust off themselves

2019-08-28 03:35:28 UTC  

And then it wouldn't be a vacuum

2019-08-28 03:35:35 UTC  

it's not a perfect vacuum

2019-08-28 03:35:40 UTC  

You simply cannot demonstrate it

2019-08-28 03:35:46 UTC  

rockets work

2019-08-28 03:35:46 UTC  
2019-08-28 03:35:52 UTC  

by seperating matter from the craft

2019-08-28 03:35:57 UTC  

this creates kinetic energy

2019-08-28 03:36:02 UTC  

Even if you COULD demonstrate it, your medium doesn't exist

2019-08-28 03:36:04 UTC  

that applies thrust to the craft
