Does that mean that the idea that the universe is a giant rubber duck is more likely than a long distance force?

But seeing how you were trying to prove that the moon is orbiting that’s not a real good accomplishment

Radar measurements just like we do on earth

Point it at the moon

Record distance and speed

Just like you car

I mean I know you can’t prove Orbitz without looking up and presupposing it I’m just trying to get you to understand that

I can touch my car

Pixels in a screen move

You don't have to know it's speed

All you did was time the movement and make up a speed and distance

The police can do that just fine without

They will point a similar device at you and boom....

You look at the moon which is a light in the screen move you timed how long it took and then made up of speed and distance

No we don't

Simple

Yup

That’s how they do it

We bounce radar there and back again

Like the police do

They watch all of the stars they see how long it takes for them to move then they just make up distances and speeds that work out with the times that they know it takes

It’s backwards engendering

Time first

Then the distances and speeds to match

I know this is fact because I can do nothing but look at the sky and record how long it takes each light to make its complete cycle and I could make all of the predictions that gravity does

in practical science, can radar actually do that though?

can it shoot through earth's atmosphere

penetrate the Van allen belts

travel 280thousand miles to the moon

After reading a bit more, I think they use lasers, but the principle is the same. I can read some more and figure out exactly how feasible it actually is @carlito

and all the way back again

right @Albert Einstein

I don't think "penetrating" the van allen belts is much trouble actually

That's just an area of increased radiation right?

what i meant is doesn't the high levels of radiation affect the signal

i guess it is yes

Not sure actually, intersting stuff!

My guess is not with lasers

I will find out later

also, doesn't light itself require a medium through which to travel

say: "aunts"
