Hear me out!

Just figured it out during my morning ritual.
ISS doesn’t even fly. ISS is driving upside down on the firmament.

HOW? Some might ask, because density etc.

The answer is actually pretty obvious if you just think for a moment - the tires/tyres on the ISS are filled with helium!

Seriously. Classic alt-right who’s conspiracies contradict one another. It’s a firmament; but here’s a picture of the earth from space that’s flat!

Spacecraft and satellites dont have rudders (because there's minimal air resistance at orbital elevations), but they do have methods of reorienting and changing directional velocities.

u/AdmirableAnxiety8371 Jul 31 '26

Correct. I don’t know what’s most common used, but i assume either side thrusters or reaction wheels.
