Don’t worry, herpes grows strong on international spacewater station Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59202682 I like to show off my skills by using a vacuum cleaner to disprove my lying eyes and to prove to everyone else's my complete lack of understanding. Refute one thing in this video with actual science Do you have anything evidence of rockets in space? |

Nope, well at least not any more than the third trial where the vacutwas still behind the car but away from the opening. The container on the scale also verifies no opposite reaction |

Refute one thing in this video with actual science Do you have anything evidence of rockets in space? Yes. No I explained exactly why they are are false. Does a rocket in space push off a bullet or a metalframe? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77003244 No metal frame, no apparatus at all, just a rocket working in space: Measurements made from the video indicate that the booster is above the Karman line and in space during the boostback burn. My telescope has an altitude dial on the side which was previously recorded using a gopro during launch. From my launch viewing site, the telescope is angled up about 40 degrees above the horizon during the boostback burn. This sped-up video is zoomed in the altitude dial, apologies the resolution isn't good enough to read the numbers but you can see where the numbers are marked and they're in 10 degree increments, the video starts at launch (0 degrees) and ends at the end of the boostback burn (40 degrees): [link to drive.google.com (secure)] At launch the Falcon boosters are about 22 pixels wide in my camera: [link to drive.google.com (secure)] I'm 21.1 km from the launch site and the boosters are each 3.7 meters wide, so that corresponds to an angular size of 0.01 degrees. By the end of the boostback they're only about 3.2 pixels wide: [link to drive.google.com (secure)] Given that we know from the launch that a 3.7 meter wide booster is 22 pixels wide in the view from 21.1 km, that means a pixel size of 3.2 pixels corresponds to an angular size of about 0.00146 degrees. The range between my telescope and the booster is therefore about 145 km at that time. Given that it's about 40 degrees above the horizon, then even if we assume a flat earth the altitude above the ground of the booster was roughly 122 km. Let's be generous here and say I could be about 5 degrees off on either side of that 40 degree measurement. Even at 35 degrees above the horizon the altitude (even assuming a flat earth) would be 102 km. At 45 degrees it would of course be 145 km above the earth. So it was somewhere between about 102 - 145 km in altitude, above the Karman line and in space. My video indicates it had no trouble reversing course to come back and land near the launch site. Please show your evidence that the video indicates it was not in space. |

LHP598 User ID: 77436004 United States 03/19/2019 02:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 1 out of 6 people have genital herpes (herpes simplex 2) and most don't know it. Even more have the form of herpes (herpes simplex 1) that causes cold sores, estimated at about 67%. If you have to insist that you've won an Internet argument, you've probably lost badly. - Danth's Law |
