Good evening everyone.

I am thinking we can celebrate this festive period by having a get-together mini party at one of the beaches where we get to meet one another and make some merriment. cool

I believe this is a good idea just that I'm bereft of ideas on how to go about it

To make it work out, we need to rub minds together by telling us your opinions, suggestions, date, suggested venues and contribution fee etc...

Please your comments are welcomed

Rossikki:
High falutin noise that does NOT address the issue. The reason you are so convoluted in your explanation is because you have no option but to confuse people. Talking about ''gravitational weight''. What nonsense is that? PROVE the existence of gravity first before talking of ''gravitational weight''. Everything around us indicates that objects fall down to the air when their are heavier than the air. When they are lighter, like a helium balloon for instance, they rise unaided. Beyond that, NOTHING LIKE 'gravity' is proven to exist. The only reason Newton came up with the 'gravity' scam is so that they could explain how it was possible for humans and buildings and matter to stick to the underside of their phantom globe without falling off, and to explain their claim that the earth and other 'planets' were spinning around the sun.



EXCERPTS - GRAVITY DOES NOT EXIST

1) “Any object which is heavier than the air, and which is unsupported, has a natural tendency to fall by its own weight. Newton's famous apple at Woolsthorpe, or any other apple when ripe, loses hold of its stalk, and, being heavier than the air, drops as a matter of necessity, to the ground, totally irrespective of any attraction of the Earth. For, if such attraction existed, why does not the Earth attract the rising smoke which is not nearly so heavy as the apple? The answer is simple - because the smoke is lighter than the air, and, therefore, does not fall but ascends. Gravitation is only a subterfuge, employed by Newton in his attempt to prove that the Earth revolves round the Sun, and the quicker it is relegated to the tomb of all the Capulets, the better will it be for all classes of society.” - David Wardlaw Scott, “Terra Firma”


2) ''The ‘law of gravitation’ is said by the advocates of the Newtonian system of astronomy, to be the greatest discovery of science, and the foundation of the whole of modern astronomy. If, therefore, it can be shown that gravitation is a pure assumption, and an imagination of the mind only, that it has no existence outside of the brains of its expounders and advocates, the whole of the hypotheses of this modern so-called science fall to the ground as flat as the surface of the ocean, and this ‘most exact of all sciences,’ this wonderful ‘feat of the intellect’ becomes at once the most ridiculous superstition and the most gigantic imposture to which ignorance and credulity could ever be exposed.” -Thomas Winship, “Zetetic Cosmogeny”


3) ''Einstein’s theory of relativity and the entire heliocentric model of the universe hinges upon Newton’s “law of gravitation.” Heliocentrists claim that the Sun is the most massive object in the heavens, more massive even than the Earth, and therefore the Earth and other planets by “law” are caught up in the Sun’s “gravity” and forced to orbit perpetual circles/ellipses around it. They claim that gravity also somehow allows people, buildings, the oceans, and all of nature to exist on the under-side of their “ball-Earth” without falling off.


4) Now, even if gravity did exist, why would it cause both planets to orbit the Sun and people to stick to the Earth? Gravity should either cause people to float in suspended circular orbits around the Earth, or it should cause the Earth to be pulled and crash into the Sun! What sort of magic is “gravity” that it can glue people’s feet to the ball-Earth, while causing Earth itself to revolve ellipses round the Sun? The two effects are very different yet the same cause is attributed to both.


5) “Take the case of a shot propelled from a cannon. By the force of the explosion and the influence of the reputed action of gravitation, the shot forms a parabolic curve, and finally falls to the earth. Here we may ask, why - if the forces are the same, viz., direct impulse and gravitation - does not the shot form an orbit like that of a planet, and revolve round the earth? The Newtonian may reply, because the impulse which propelled the shot is temporary; and the impulse which propelled the planet is permanent. Precisely so; but why is the impulse permanent in the case of the planet revolving round the sun? What is the cause of this permanence?” -N. Crossland, “New Principia”



6) “If the sun is pulling with such power at the earth and all her sister planets, why do they not fall down upon him?” -A. Giberne, “Sun, Moon, and Stars”


7) ''Furthermore, this magnetic-like attraction of massive objects gravity is purported to have can be found nowhere in the natural world. There is no example in nature of a massive sphere or any other shaped-object which by virtue of its mass alone causes smaller objects to stick to or orbit around it! There is nothing on Earth massive enough that it can be shown to cause even a dust-bunny to stick to or orbit around it! Try spinning a wet tennis ball or any other spherical object with smaller things placed on its surface and you will find that everything falls or flies off, and nothing sticks to or orbits it. To claim the existence of a physical “law” without a single practical evidential example is hearsay, not science.''

Rossikki:
You make no sense. If "gravity" is powerful enough to keep all matter glued to the earth, including oceans and buildings, how do birds and insects rise up and fly? Saying it is because they eat and have energy is utterly ludicrous and fails to address the question. What sort of energy does an insect garner that can defy the powerful 'gravity' holding whole oceans and all land and objects to a spinning globe?
You still don't get it my man.
I'm trying to break it down for you as simple as possible. Try and rationalize. We are all objective here, stating facts and figures. Forget about theory this, theory that.

Gravity has magnitude, direction. It keeps all object to the surface of the earth. Even clouds are suspended in the air (all they are, are floating waters). They rise and increase in weight till they evaporate to drop at rain at certain temperatures and heights. Do you know that, if not for force of gravity, water (clouds) will rise indefinitely? And never fall back?

Buildings and seas have their "resoved" force in the direction of gravity. They are of great weights and have zero kinetic energy. This simply means, they do not have any tendency to oppose gravitational force. Do you know how loads for building are calculated?

It is called a dumping process, the load from the roof is sent to beams, beams sent to columns, sent to foundations deep below the earth surface. Water bodies met loads are far below sea level. In fact, there is no water load at 1cm above sea level.

Earth is denser at subsurface level. And mountains masses lies more below the ground. That is if you see a mountain of 10m height, about 20m is buried below ground level.

Now what I'm trying to explain to you is that, every natural and engineered mass on the circle is so designed by God (copied by the engineers) to have its weight in the sphere. It weighs "nothing" outside the sphere.

Now come to dynamic objects id est insects, birds, helium balloons, planes, helicopters, etc. The principle here is to make the overall weight less than the gravitational weight (do you know the 4 forces of a plane? Lift, drag.. .etc).

These objects are so designed that their shape makes it easy for them to 'walk' on a air. Basically sir, that's what all flying objects do. If the world is a vacuum, nothing will fly. Objects are made with lightweight material, with wings and some amount of internal energy to 'propel them.

It's simply physics. For insects, they are constantly flapping their wings in air, just like fishes are flapping their wings in water. For one downward flap, they rise by an inch. The wings curve in and flap down again. Continuously they fly. Their weights (are so small, that is zero load) and they are constantly generating energy. This makes them fly.

Others glide through air. Gravity is a simple concept my man. Open your mind wide and you will find the possibilities endless.

What if Gravity doesn't exist? Gravity is the answer we were given for the theory that the earth is spherical and spinning.

If gravity keeps us on earth like a string then how come insects fly? These are genuine questions from me so please don't dismiss but enlighten me...
Gravity does not keep us on earth 'like a string'. In fact dear, there are no strings attached.

An insect does not fly forever. It flys for some period, then come down to rest, take off again, and the cycle continues.

It uses energy to fly, it gets that energy from the food it eats. Now the weight of an insect is so small (in fact negligible).

It has very small insignificant weight with very large amount of energy. It does not find it difficult to lift and move. But at a point when it uses up that temporary kinetic energy, it comes down to find food again.

That is the principle used by aeroplanes, fans, helicopters, etc. They all obey the basic gravitational law.

Proven milady, well proven.

The image of the Earth is not photoshopped image.This is what NASA said concerning the quality of the image

...This color image of Earth was taken by NASA’s Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC), a four megapixel CCD camera and telescope. The image was generated by combining three separate images to create a photographic-quality image. The camera takes a series of 10 images using different narrowband filters -- from ultraviolet to near infrared -- to produce a variety of science products. The red, green and blue channel images are used in these color images.



There are billion billion planets in the universe.
Of course we've left the earths atmosphere many times and we've also sent probes to study other planets and the solar system. NASA sent Galileo to Jupiter(it was crushed by Jupiter atmosphere after traveling less than 200km in it),voyager 1&2 to study the solar system, etc...




I didn't wake up one day and accept the "blue marble" theory I was convinced by the large amount of evidence available.

We've used the blue mable theory to
1. Calculate Time
2. Launch satellites and spacecrafts
3. Navigate around it
etc ,successfully.
Now the question is, the flat earth theorists should predict one thing with their theory and let see it outcome. I know it will fail grin

Help me understand why there is no evidence of the spherical earth. The blue marble model is computer generated image so with all the satellites up there how come we need to relay on this photoshoped version of the spherical earth image. And if in fact earth is rotating then why haven't we seen the image live?
Milady, there are satellite videos of the rotating earth. You can google it up. And because most of the satellite in space are in fact orbiting (going round) the earth, you will get most videos as time-lapse videos.

There are a thousand and one evidence of the sphericity of the earth. It's all over the internet. From images from space (all this conspiracy people will tell you it's computer generated, when in fact, it's satellite imagery), to day/night (can you notice the smooth transition from light to darkness? That's because of the smooth rotation of the earth away from the sun), to the growth and decline of the moon, to the horizon view, (go to the nearest harbour and try to look for an approaching ship - in a flat earth, it will grow from a very small ship to the standard size, but what you will see is the flag, the hull, and the body.. Rising out of the water).

Nokia CEO ended his speech saying this “we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”.

Nokia CEO ended his speech saying this “we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”.

During the press conference to announce NOKIA being acquired by Microsoft, Nokia CEO ended his speech saying this “we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”. Upon saying that, all his management team, himself included, teared sadly.

Nokia has been a respectable company. They didn’t do anything wrong in their business, however, the world changed too fast. Their opponents were too powerful.

They missed out on learning, they missed out on changing, and thus they lost the opportunity at hand to make it big. Not only did they miss the opportunity to earn big money, they lost their chance of survival.

The message of this story is, if you don’t change, you shall be removed from the competition.

It’s not wrong if you don’t want to learn new things. However, if your thoughts and mindset cannot catch up with time, you will be eliminated.

Conclusion:
1. The advantage you have yesterday, will be replaced by the trends of tomorrow. You don’t have to do anything wrong, as long as your competitors catch the wave and do it RIGHT, you can lose out and fail.

To change and improve yourself is giving yourself a second chance. To be forced by others to change, is like being discarded.
Those who refuse to learn & improve, will definitely one day become redundant & not relevant to the industry. They will learn the lesson in a hard & expensive way.

Rossikki:
Your post is filled with inaccuracies and wild, unproven, hand-me-down assertions. A plane's speed is such that it WILL fly out of the earth atmosphere and into 'outer space' on a four hour flight if the earth were spherical, UNLESS it constantly dipped its nose downwards to curve round the 'globe'. No plane ever does that because the earth is flat.


See earlier quote:
''If we were living on a spinning globe, airplanes would constantly have to dip their noses down every few minutes to compensate for the curvature of the earth (with a circumference of 25,000 miles the earth would be constantly curving at the speed of an airplane). In reality however, they never do this! They learn how to fly based on a level flat plane.''

Also, can you explain to us why there are no direct flights between Cape town and Sidney? See start of thread for details in case you missed it.
So you ignored the fact I told you about gravity and choose to still be deluded by unfounded hypothesis in the internet. Seems you already agree with me on gravity, lemme leave that aside.

The circumference of the earth (yes the earth is spherical!) is about 40200km. Let me shoot you down.

1. I know the earth has a circumference of 40,200.
2. I know the arc distance (as crow flies) between Nigeria and United States is about 11,000km.

Using the laws of gravity, I measure the mass(a function of weight) of a plane and use it to get the speed. Say the average speed of a commercial plane is 1000km/hr. I can confidently say a plane leaving Nigeria will arrive US in the next eleven hours excluding stopping times. This is a fact.

We calculate times, distances taking into cognizance the curvature of the earth and pilots, airport official and engineers like me have NEVER been wrong. All these will be very incorrect using a flat imaginative earth.

And yes, planes do not fly straight lines over VERY LONG distances, but they do at short distances. Planes bank, and change direction. Just as you cannot notice that the earth is curved at zero or small altitudes, same way you cannot notice/measure the curve of a plane because it is seemingly negligible considering the distance wrt to height. I wish you can understand.

You should bring solid questions, and not hearsay.
Science/TechnologyRe: The Earth Is FLAT. Discuss! by FutureSenator: 7:14pm On Dec 24, 2016
@OP stop reading confusionists hypothesis. Yes, hypothesis is all it is. The earth is not flat. Science and religion has proved that over and over again.

I would not want to bring out basic geography facts here, you know it all. And if you don't, just google "proofs of earth sphericity".

The radius of the earth is something above 6400km if I remember that figure correctly. That means the circumference of the earth is 2 * π * 6400. Or will you tell me there is nothing like π too?

What I'm saying that the height/distance (slope) ratio is too gentle to be significant for most journeys made by a commercial plane? And all normal measuring instruments will read it as near level. Dig deeper and learn more.

Forget all those cock and bull stories making round on the www. The earth is near spherical, gravity (9.8m/s) is a FACT. if not, everything that has ever need designed would have failed. Ships, cars, houses, Towers etc.

Science and mathematics revolve around the basic Newtonian law, F = mass * acceleration due to gravity.

Everything that exists move. The earth, the sun, the stars, the moon, the winds, etc. Science never opposes religion, it supports it.

What's your question?
