Do you really think a few scientists couldn't come up with a way to... ...send men to the moon?

Here's somebody who sees what I see. And he's wrong, too.

Are you saying that the fact that they didn't sift and wash some sand to make it dust-free to make a movie means that it's impossible to make sand dust-free? No, we're saying the fact that nobody (this means you) has actually demonstrated that it's possible means that it's impossible. ...actually send men to the moon. Because it's your claim. Then you do the calculations and prove us wrong! You mean, the viewers with science backgrounds whom already all disagree with you? Point out a single dust particle in the video with a non-parabolic trajectory. Wrong. No printing or monetary expenditure is necessary to answer Bob's questions in post #213Our sincere apologies for asking you to invest a few hours and employ the help of "several" other people to support your claim that the work of thousands of people over the course of a decade or so was a complete lie. Then point it out. I can follow a pink unicorn across that same scene if I don't have to actually point out where it is to anyone.

Wow. Listen to those gears grind as rocky tries to dig himself out of the mudhole of his own self-contradictions. He's busily re-aligning the goalposts so that the sand/dust/dirt flies between them, but only after suddenly and gradually being slowed down by, yet not aerosolizing in, the 1g atmosphere.

Where are your answers to Bob's questions in #213?

It would take years of erosion to produce enough dust-sized particles to form a cloud as big as the ones in these pictures when driven over. Then do it. Make some of this magical dust-free sand and show us footage of a vehicle driving on it in Earth's atmosphere without leaving a cloud of dust.

There's no place where I could do this experiment. Then you don't know how "easy" it would be, or if it can be done at all.

It would have been very easy to sift and wash a few dozen truckloads of sand and place it in the area where the rover was going to drive at high speed. Then do it. Make some of this magical dust-free sand and show us footage of a vehicle driving on it in Earth's atmosphere without leaving a cloud of dust.

As I said before--sand can be made dust-free by sifting and then washing for as long as necessary. Then do it. Make some of this magical dust-free sand and show us footage of a vehicle driving on it in Earth's atmosphere without leaving a cloud of dust.

In a vacuum it shouldn't slow down. The speed should stay the same thoughout the whole trajectory. False. Gravity reduces the vertical component of the velocity vector to zero at the apex of the arc. The velocity vector does not retain a constant magnitude, ergo it should slow down.

How curiously worded. This implies TLI is a continuous state in-and-of-itself, into which the spacecraft transitions from another, such as parking orbit. I'd consider trans-lunar coast to be such a state, the initiating event of which would be TLI... but not TLI itself.

While you're at it, ask him, if all objects orbit the earth in 90 minutes, how is a geostationary orbit achieved?

Did anyone else notice that Neil chopped the top of Buzz's helmet off in AS11-40-5951Sylar!
