I'm saying you should test it if you don't believe that it is an insignificant variable

2019-11-07 23:00:27 UTC  

lower air density makes things lighter

2019-11-07 23:00:41 UTC  

hmmm

2019-11-07 23:00:47 UTC  

interesting

2019-11-07 23:00:48 UTC  

btw

2019-11-07 23:00:59 UTC  

do you know how sattelites work @rivenator12113 ?

2019-11-07 23:01:04 UTC  

it's very interesting

2019-11-07 23:01:05 UTC  

I don't have all the results to test it out, I only have the location and how much it weighs with what the guy gave.

2019-11-07 23:02:07 UTC  

many flat erthers say it's impossible because sattelites and gravity are a huge contradiction

2019-11-07 23:02:07 UTC  

I don't have any good evidence against that but flat earthers would say that they are attached to high altitude balloons

2019-11-07 23:02:18 UTC  

but actually

2019-11-07 23:02:32 UTC  

without gravity sattelites would just make a straight line into the space

2019-11-07 23:02:51 UTC  

when I was a child I have a small Apache helicopter toy

2019-11-07 23:03:06 UTC  

it had a little propeller which made it go foward

2019-11-07 23:03:22 UTC  

and it was attached to the celling

2019-11-07 23:03:32 UTC  

by a small nylon string

2019-11-07 23:03:50 UTC  

when it wasn't turned on it goes to the middle right?

2019-11-07 23:03:58 UTC  

but when you turn it on

2019-11-07 23:04:23 UTC  

it goes foward and then starts rotating

2019-11-07 23:04:42 UTC  

now imagine that where the string is attached is Earth

2019-11-07 23:04:58 UTC  

and the helicopter is a space station

2019-11-07 23:05:26 UTC  

speed is vectorial

2019-11-07 23:05:57 UTC  

so we can decompose it on Vx (speed of it going foward) and Vy (speed of it going down)

2019-11-07 23:06:08 UTC  

it's not a very good example but imagine the string been gravity

2019-11-07 23:06:28 UTC  

and it's velocity foward been Vx

2019-11-07 23:06:32 UTC  

(it is 😄 )

2019-11-07 23:06:39 UTC  

it's almost the same thing

2019-11-07 23:07:31 UTC  

I have never heard the argument that satellites and gravity are a huge contradiction sorry. I think it would work on your model but I was very surprised to find out that there was no real images of them in space if you try to look it up.

2019-11-07 23:07:46 UTC  

hmmmm

2019-11-07 23:08:38 UTC  

well it must be vry complex to take such pics

2019-11-07 23:08:48 UTC  

it's an object moving at very fast speeds

2019-11-07 23:08:57 UTC  

and it's very small and far away

2019-11-07 23:09:02 UTC  

we can but why should we?

2019-11-07 23:09:21 UTC  

there is really no purpouse to take pictures of a sattelite

2019-11-07 23:09:33 UTC  

there may be

2019-11-07 23:10:24 UTC  

also fun fact, there is so much junk orbiting on earth that it may become a problem in any second ;-;

2019-11-07 23:11:05 UTC  

one cool game if you want to literally explore the space realistically

2019-11-07 23:11:07 UTC  

Another good argument for globe earther that I found was the ISS moving at high speed, flat earthers would usually reply with it's a U2 spy plane and a hologram but you can calculate the speed the ISS goes and it doesn't match the U2 spy plane max speed.

2019-11-07 23:11:12 UTC  

is kerbal space program

2019-11-07 23:11:39 UTC  

U2?

2019-11-07 23:11:45 UTC  

@rivenator12113 thats assuming the distance
