Yes it is amazing that astronomers are the most brainwashed bunch on
the planet that they answer questions regarding gravity without one

Mr. Scientist:

How does gravity work? Is there a new theory?

Ralph Hertle

You know its funny, the moon's gravity is considered to be the primary
cause of earth's tidal forces in the oceans. The other factors which
are supposed to account for the earth's tides are angular momentum and
centrifugal forces. Yet the moon takes about 28 days to go around
Earth, but the earth has a high tide and low tide twice on a daily
basis. Since the orbital path of the moon around the earth is
considered to be elliptical

Astronomers claim another cause is the earth-moon center of gravity
known as the barycenter. Another explanation given by astronomers and
apparently supported by many people is, "at perigee, the moon's
gravitational tug on Earth is at its maximum and so the waters of the
world rise and fall to their maximum extent", and this would seem to
make sense to most people when you tell them the moon's gravity causes
tidal forces.

Yet again we have high and low tide twice daily. This means that the
moon would have to be closest to earth twice daily and since we know it
takes about 28 days to make one revolution around the earth, this would
translate into a high and low tide twice a month, not twice daily.

What is your answer for this Ralph? Or what web site would you refer me
to explain high and low tide as experienced on earth twice daily?

Yes, because the Earth rotates in 24 hours. I cannot beleive how dumb you
are.

I wasn't talking to you psychopath.

The interesting effect of the tides is at the exact time of the high
tide on one side of the Earth there is a high tide on the other side.
Gentlemen Earth tides have been gone over many times in this group over
the years. Bert

So the high tide on one side of the Earth is being pulled by the Moon.

What is your explanation for the high tide on the other side of the Earth?

Double-A

Hi Double-A A high tide takes place on the side of the Earth facing
the Moon because the moon's gravity attraction pulls more strongly on
water there than it pulls on the center of the Earth itself "An because
the Moon's gravity tugs on water on the opposite side even less than it
does on the Earth's center,a high tide occurs on the other side.
Double-A The Earth has a 3ft bulge on both sides. Well these facts
give me an idea for today's "What if" Bert

Double-A

The Moon's pull is weaker on the other side of Earth as a
result of about 8,000 miles greater distance (inverse-square
law).

They don't have one that stands up to real scrutiny. Just lke those who
say CMBR is not 'infrared photons', they too don't understand basic physics.

Just because *YOU* cannot understand basic physics, don't expect everyone
else is as stupid as you.

Hardly. It is patently absurd to say to that CMBR is not infrared just
because it is a lower frequency. Fact is it is still considered a heat
signature. Fact is it is still considered a photonic field. Take your
simplistic brainwashed astronomy to the dustbin where it belongs.
