re: Why are we looking to space?

Read a book on astronomy before posting for starters…
I've read astronomy books by the dozens. None of them divulge how the so-called planets, suns, "millions-of-Light-Year" distances and compositions are/were calculated. (Turns out they are all based on loose "theories" over the centuries).
If we aren't told that "astronomy" fundamentals are based purely on theories, how and why then should we take their word for any of it?

One time I tried to throw a baseball softly up to myself while we were driving on the interstate. Sadly that bitch went straight into my face at 76 mph, because that’s how Liberator demands that physics works.

The answer is that the atmosphere that the aircraft is flying within is rotating with the earth. In a broad sense, the Earth and the atmosphere can be thought of as a single integral system.
Thank you for answering the bell.
So, your theory is, the earth's atmosphere is somehow attached to the physical earth like a electro-magnetic velcro?
But then at what point is the separation and detachment between the "atmosphere" and the so-called "vacuum of space"?
(and IF this is actually the "science", why aren't we taught it in Science / Astronomy books?)

Is the above addressed to me?

Yes it’s addressed to you..
The actual answer is that the vacuum of space does not exert any force on the atmosphere at all. It does not “suck” the air. We associate the word “suck” with “vacuums” but it’s a misnomer. That’s not what vacuums do.
Consider an example where we’ve pumped all of the air out of some box and created a vacuum inside of it. Let’s say we’re on Earth, at sea level, and we poke a hole in the box. What will happen?
Air will rush into the box and fill it. Okay. But why did it do that? Was it because the vacuum sucked the air into the box? No.
What’s actually happening there is that the air pressure around the box is forcing air into the space with no pressure. The air that fills the box is being PUSHED by air pressure into the empty space.
Vacuums never “suck” air. What they do is present an empty space and then air pressure forces the air into the vacuum.
Air pressure is not uniform throughout the atmosphere. The lower the altitude, the higher the air pressure; thus, as you move higher, the air pressure decreases. In fact, at the upper limits of the atmosphere, the air pressure reduces to basically nil.
And since there’s no real air pressure to speak of up there, then there is no force pushing the air into the empty space.
Now, this doesn’t mean gravity isn’t at work here. In fact, gravity is the reason we have air pressure in the first place. Gravity pulls on the atmosphere, compressing it, and creating pressure.
If we could magically turn off gravity then the atmosphere would be released from that compression and spring away from the Earth.
So, at the root of it, gravity is the thing that keeps the atmosphere near the surface. It just isn’t fighting the vacuum of space to do it.

Yes, millions of light years has to be theoretical - how would you go about proving it.
Are you asserting we will learn more about the origins of the universe, matter and life in Antarctica or space?

Yeah, I remember when Santa used to eat those cookies, drank his cocoa and left me my presents!!...
I also remember watching Star Trek and Star Wars. AND watching the Moon Landings!
Oh wait.
That was all the same fairy tale bullsh#.

Great deflection corky
And if you’re a young POS that doesn’t get my corky reference. Google life goes on. Loser.

The aliens that live near the center of the earth told us to stay away so we are exploring space instead.

The "vacuum of space" is just more purely theory and cover for the Astronomy Deception, NOT proven. So your intricate explanation-- though noble -- is for naught.
Do you believe we live on a 1000 mph orbit around the sun spinning ball, whirling through space at 66,600 mph?
You can't have it both ways. The atmosphere is not "attached" to the physical plane.
Ergo, IF you and your fellow Spinning Ball Earthers want to believe the earth spins 1000 mph, an "anchored" balloon launched at unknown altitude from your back yard could merely hover for three hours and wind up 3000 mile WEST.

Please provide your data to back up your insane theory.
Otherwise, your break from licking windows is probably over and it’s time to get back to work.

Obvious no point in arguing with you. Good luck to you sir and hope you find the answers you are looking for.

Huh??
What about the centrifugal force of your 1000 mph Sinning Ball?? Why doesn't it fling the atmosphere out into space?
Oh. "Gravity" is a THEORY. Look it up, Newton. Even he acknowledged it is NOT proven nor a tangible force of "nature".
Your explanation: DENIED by Fact. Science. And common sense.

All that reading and you never encountered parallax and trigonometry?
Did you ever come up with a way to explain the Coriolis effect on projectiles like bullets, other than to say it doesn't exist?
Posted on 4/4/24 at 10:15 pm to Liberator
Actually, my theory is that you have no common sense.
Posted on 4/4/24 at 10:16 pm to LSU713Tiger
I already found the answers.
I'm merely trying to help convince some of you of the (Cosmological) lies and deception and schemes from the same Luciferian Trickster Overlords who insist "Men can be women", "Climate Change", "'The Science' and Vaxx will save you" and and "Fair Elections" etc etc.
Choose wisely, sir.

Great!
Tell me teach -- how did astronomers calculate distance to the Sun and Moon AND planets?

It doesn't exist. STILL
(Is it in your manual?) No gunner "accounts" for a "spinning" earth.
