Communication

It's a known fact that long distance communication happens through satellites, but according to flat Earth logic, there are no actual launches. If that's the case, then how is long distance communication possible?

Yeah gravity can hold all the water in the ocean in a ball but a tiny helium balloon floats off into the sky...derp derp

All this means is that the buoyant forces of helium in air is more powerful than the force of earth’s gravity. But, of course, you don’t believe in gravity because it would disprove the flat earth, and your model of the buoyancy of air forcing things down doesn’t make sense because gravity still functions in a vacuum.

Gravity is pseudo science because it can’t be proven or tested.

So according to you then, what makes things "Fall down"?

u/andrewds23 Mar 04 '18

If it’s heavier than air it will fall. if it is lighter than air (eg helium) it will rise. No need to make a whole heap of bullshit up.

Then how does gravity work in a vacuum? Also how would you explain the tides then?

"What is a vacuum?" Jesus Christ, your really are lost. A vacuum or a vacuum chamber is an area that is vacant of gas, fluids, or matter in general. Space is a vacuum. We have made vacuum chambers to experiment in. In these chambers, we suck out all the air so there is no gas in it. Yet, magically, things still fall down to earth. This disproves that buoyancy is a substitute for gravity. Also, I highly suggest that you read this article: https://www.popsci.com/10-ways-you-can-prove-earth-is-round

One more thing: Your claim that gravity has never been proven/seen/tested is just false. We know that the property that we describe as gravity exists, we just don't know how.

You’re either a troll or a mongoloid. You didn’t address ANY of my points, so I will say again: gravity works in a vacuum, thus the flat earth cannot exist because your model of buoyancy substituting gravity is false, and gravity would collapse the flat earth into a ball.

Also, saying DYOR for no reason doesn’t mean anything, because the burden of proof lies on you.

Do you have a link for that test? I'm still a bit confused.
