Explaining dark energy is no different than explaining an animal with wheels instead of legs. You can make all the convincing models of how both work you want...but at the end of the day it's still just somebody's fantasy. Find evidence for it, then it will be taken seriously. :)

The point being that when the cosmic microwave background maps are analysed they show a consistency in ANY direction from ANY POINT. Meaning there is no center, or all points are the center. Because it looks the same in ANY direction from ANYWHERE. Just because you were taught something doesn't in ...

However you wish to reconcile the opposing views is up to you. One is a philosophical convention; the other is not. All I know is that all observations of the heavens place earth at the center and that every experiment ever conducted to prove any motion has failed. The universe is proved to be rotat...

Dax...exactly :D

The transfer of momentum does not come from gravity , it is from the momentum of the planet you sling by , gravity is just the " rope between the skier and the boat " Agreed. A skier might say the boat powered their slingshot. They probably wouldn't say the rope powered anything. They wou...

Hey daan. Look up "projectile motion." It will help explain why slingshot maneuvers can't work without gravity. Think of growing up playing with a tetherball. Now imagine another much smaller ball tethered to the primary on a much shorter string. This is the model for the slingshot maneuve...

Hey dax. I know it doesn't seem to make sense. I'll try to make it easier if I can. If the earth moves around the sun, you can bump your spaceship off of that acceleration. Conversely, if the sun is instead moving around a static earth, the inertial forces do the same exact job...or "work"...

I would concede that as a fair reaction. I'm going to go out on a physics limb and say that the fact that the universe does rotate is indicative that it is finite with a boundary at some distance away from us where there is no mass...but without observation to back that up it's just a guess on my pa...

I never said that a spacecraft would not be getting a transfer of momentum...I said that the "cause" is gravity. Even then Fletcher, you can still describe it as an effect of the inertial forces of the universe. The "orbital bump" would still be the result of gravity, of which th...

Hm...there must be a reason that it's also known as a "gravity assist," wouldn't you say? Without gravity, no slingshot maneuver could take place. They are performed to accelerate a craft without expending too much propellant...which is achieved via a "gravity assist."

...Earth once... Whether the earth is static or not, a slingshot maneuver can still be performed...since it has gravity. Gravity doesn't care if you're spinning or not; it won't go away if you aren't. If I place the Foucault pendulum 6300km under the surface of the earth do you think the pendulum w...

Case in point.

It's because there is zero net torque acting on the earth, since the earth's COM is also at the COM of the universe. For anything ON the surface that has free range of motion however, whereby any low friction coefficient is practically negated due to the earth's shear mass, there IS a net torque app...

Yes, He has...but not just Robin. There are thousands, and many more who are up and coming, and God says they are HIS. The road of a prophet is harder than any other road because they are at the forefront of everything. They take the slander, the mocking, the ridicule, the disbelief, and even the co...

Robin’s net worth is 42million dollars. He is named as the top 20 richest pastors in the world. I always have a problem with these people. Wouldn’t an ardent follower of Christ and a Prophet be worth nothing? “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly the...
