He tweeted a picture that used a default MS Paint shape, so he's obviously an antisemite, duh
Hillary "fucking Jew bastard" Clinton is perfectly clean, though :^)
And the probe is re-opened. Wouldn't it be great if it's proven that she committed perjury (even if it is just a congressional inquiry)?Trey Gowdy's questioning of Director Comey proves the FBI knew she lied to them and did so under oath. But Comey will STILL not act. He is addicted the breathing, and AG Lynch has been promised a seat on the SCOTUS
Sorry, hill-dog.
It would only make the lifting ability worse with the added weight of the additional balloons.For what purpose may I ask?The picture clearly shows a curved horizon.You know the lifting ability of helium. It's fairly easy to calculate the lift based on total weight and amount of helium used and the type of balloon.
I'm interested in how you determine how to reach the altitude you want with a balloon
I aim for an accent rate of 5 m/s. That way, I ensure that the balloon will actually burst, but not burst too soon, while going as high as possible.
Try this calculator http://habhub.org/calc/
My normal payload is CA 1200g, but the next launch will have an extra camera for raw format images which adds to the weight in both camera and batteries. Probably 1850 g this time.
Thanks. I was wondering about filling 4 balloons. Fill one as normal the one below that to 80% the one below that to 60%, the next and last to 40%
Also, you don't fill balloons to 100%. Even given the flexibility of the material, the balloon expands quite violently during its ascend
I would think the system I described would get the most altitude. The 100% just means to fill it as you would a single balloon. The other's below would be expanding and more buoyant by the time the first one pops, and then the second, and so on.
Or am I missing something here?
The lift doesn't amount to the size of the balloons but the amount of helium they contain. Helium is lighter than the atmosphere so it will keep ascending until there is no more atmosphere. There's an upper limit to the altitude you can gain with helium. You won't go much higher than 40km, the atmosphere is simply too thin.
The amount of helium in the balloon decides how fast the balloon ascents. A lot of helium and the balloon ascents quickly, but pops at a lower altitude (lesser space in the balloon for expansion), too little helium and it ascends slowly, but might not burst at all.
Hydrogen would allow you to go higher, but on a low budget level, hydrogen is dangerous as hell since it reacts with oxygen.
IF.......You can't see the sun "because of the thickness of the 'atmoplane'" why can you see the stars after the sun sets ?
Because the stars are over you and the sun is not.

Clusters of eclipse? This will come as a shock to both professional and amateur astronomers. There is a minimum of 2 each per year, but there can be as many as a total of 7.
And I agree with you about the lunar phases. The explanation is junk. As written it would mean the observed phase would be different at different locations on the same night.
And the explanation on eclipses begs another question; Why is the "Shadow Object" not illuminated by the sun?
I tried to get some answers in Why should anyone believe the earth is flat? « Reply #75 on: March 16, 2016, 11:08:14 PM ».
And how ANYONE can see a full moon in How does a Full Moon appear Full for everyone? « on: April 28, 2016, 08:40:55 AM »
And again in How does a Full Moon appear Full for everyone? « on: April 24, 2016, 01:29:43 AM »
The geometry I interpret from the Wiki for a lunar eclipse is:
Flat Earth Sun, Shadow Object and Lunar EclipseI cannot see any possibility of the "Shadow Object" causing ANY shadow on the moon.
The whole "Zetetic" approach seems to be "The earth looks flat so it must be", then guess everything else without a shred of evidence.
Wait a wall of ice 150 feet tall! Wow that's totally impassible. /end sarcasm
I've climbed ice cliffs that are 600 feet tall in Scotland for fun. Nobody's ever heard of ice axes and crampons then?
Hello all,You're not having much luck! Maybe the "experts" in Flat Earth Theory in TFES don't know.
Being new to that flat Earth world, I tried to get information about the Moon. Some say it's a disc, others a dome. I've searched the wiki and the current forum.
What about its orbit ?
Thanks.
When you have found out about the moon's shape and orbit see what you can find out about what causes the phases of the moon and lunar eclipses.
No-one seems to have any satisfactory explanations.Quote from: the WikiThe Phases of the MoonWhen I try to picture the geometry it makes absolutely no sense. Then for lunar eclipses:
When one observes the phases of the moon he sees the moon's day and night, a shadow from the sun illuminating half of the spherical moon at any one time.
The lunar phases vary cyclically according to the changing geometry of the Moon and Sun, which are constantly wobbling up and down and exchange altitudes as they rotate around the North Pole.
When the moon and sun are at the same altitude one half of the lunar surface is illuminated and pointing towards the sun, This is called the First Quarter Moon. When the observer looks up he will see a shadow cutting the moon in half. The boundary between the illuminated and unilluminated hemispheres is called the terminator.
When the moon is below the sun's altitude the moon is dark and a New Moon occurs.
When the moon is above the altitude of the sun the moon is fully lit and a Full Moon occurs.QuoteThe Lunar EclipseI am afraid I find that this makes less sense to me than the explanation of the phases.
A Lunar Eclipse occurs about twice a year when a satellite of the sun passes between the sun and moon.
This satellite is called the Shadow Object. Its orbital plane is tilted at an angle of about 5°10' to the sun's orbital plane, making eclipses possible only when the three bodies (Sun, Object, and Moon) are aligned and when the moon is crossing the sun's orbital plane (at a point called the node). Within a given year, considering the orbitals of these celestial bodies, a maximum of three lunar eclipses can occur. Despite the fact that there are more solar than lunar eclipses each year, over time many more lunar eclipses are seen at any single location on earth than solar eclipses. This occurs because a lunar eclipse can be seen from the entire half of the earth beneath the moon at that time, while a solar eclipse is visible only along a narrow path on the earth's surface.
Total lunar eclipses come in clusters. There can be two or three during a period of a year or a year and a half, followed by a lull of two or three years before another round begins. When you add partial eclipses there can be three in a calendar year and again, it's quite possible to have none at all.
The shadow object is never seen because it orbits close to the sun. As the sun's powerful vertical rays hit the atmosphere during the day they will scatter and blot out nearly every single star and celestial body in the sky. We are never given a glimpse of the celestial bodies which appear near the sun during the day - they are completely washed out by the sun's light.
It is estimated that the Shadow Object is around five to ten miles in diameter. Since it is somewhat close to the sun the manifestation of its penumbra upon the moon appears as a magnified projection. This is similar to how during a shadow puppet show your hand's shadow can make a large magnified projection upon your bedroom wall as you move it closer to the flashlight.

Yeah, he's selling his gun and selling it on the point that he killed an unarmed teenager. I'm sorry but that's just wrong. You wanna sell the gun, fine, but don't promote its significance.
And its up to nearly a fucking million dollars?! How the... Who the fuck has that kind of cash for a politically chaged gun?
Not only that but...QuoteOn this day, 5/11/2016 exactly one year after the shooting attempt to end my life by BLM sympathizer Matthew AppersonFrom what I can find, he was ahot at but never pulled the gun. In fact, he states it was not used despite being in the truck. Yet Apperson claimed george pointed it at him moments before and that's why Apperson took the shot.
"Can Count Sanders"? What can he count? Why is that an insult
What? "That tells me not going along to along"? Are you trying to say something along the lines of "That tells me he was not going to get along with the Republican establishment"
Where live, do the offer adult reading classes?
I'm sorry, are you really implying that Trump is a paragon of honesty?
No, I was mostly commenting on how your message doesn't consist of a single coherent sentence. Originally I hoped you're just spamming copypasta, but that doesn't seem to be the case.Trump is better than Hilary The Serial Liar or Can Count Sanders.
I like Cruz, most of the party insiders hate him. That tells me was not going along to get along. We require someone, a whole lot of someones, in office that are will stand castrate the opposition in order to stand for the Constitution and therefor the people.
But now, now we have to settle for Trump.
Maybe they support The Serial Liar or Can't Count.Trump's campaign was pretty much just a publicity stunt a year ago, just like all his previous campaigns were. I'm sure that Trump was as surprised as anyone when this time it really took off.lol you're still trying.
Saddam. It's okay. You were wrong. We were right. It's not a big deal. It's a thing that happens. You don't have to keep defending yourself every time something doesn't go your way. Shrug it off and move on.
For example i don't believe that i didn't see.
Stellarium
Did the open source programmers who made Stellarium really travel the world to chart which stars can and cannot be seen, or are they making it how they were taught in school?
Okay! I live in England. I watch the skies, I have this and it is 100% accurate here, anybody else from around the world?
Did you chart every star in the night sky in the last 2 hours since I last posted to prove that Stellarium is 100% accurate?
You are not ready to learn everything but still you are deflecting.
Human don't need to eat the animals. But somebody claim it as a religion. This is not fair and appropriate.
I dont understand your stance.
Do you think eating meat is bad, or good?
Surely eating meat is bad. how is it be a good thing?
To kill a creature and eat it. This is not fair and ethical. What we feel if another animal continuesly kills and eats our friends and our family members? This is a terrible atrocity.
As a human we have strong so we can easily kill and eat other animals. I said that this is not fair and ethical. To see it requires a bit empathy.
Religions allow to do it, but here there is a mistake according to ethical values, human values, moral values.
Making the claim is not proof. Proof requires independent conformation
Where is your proof?
Math and geometry.http://www.csgnetwork.com/righttri.gif The North Pole angle C and Polaris, angle B form side a of a triangle. The FE is at a Right Angle to that side, which gives you the second side, side b. The line of sight gives the third side, side c. The furthest possible point for side c and b to meet is 12,000 miles from side a at Angle A. The angle of side a is ALWAYS higher that side b. This means that Polaris, at night is always visible, as the SMALLEST possible angle for side c is 7 degrees ABOVE side c.
The link shows how it works and it provides a calculator to give the proper value for the angles
Math alone doesn't prove anything about how the world works. Where are the experiments which prove that Polaris disappears at the equator?
