What is the visual difference between a stone and a satellite?
"Ed Cannon" wrote in message ... In articles says... A lot of very good comments. I agree with Bill that the guy was trolling (or else is a complete oaf), but I like and also appreciate your well-said messages! Thank you Ed and Bill. I initially posted "don't feed the trolls" myself, but since there is so little traffic here to begin with and since he actually responded (in the past he's never acknowledged my challenges to his logic) I thought I'd present a case for reality. I'm genuinely curious how far the "logical" constructs of his worldview extend. I won't go back and forth with this guy, if it's apparent he's covering his ears and going "Lalalalalala!". Clear skies to all! -- Stephen Home Page: stephmon.com Satellite Hunting: sathunt.com |

So the moon and the planetes are articifial satellites,
because of their predictable positions... No, they're natural satellites, so they don't appear in the hours after a rocket is launched, or dissapear when a satellite is de-orbited, or in the case of the shuttle... lands. Some meteorites appear and disappear at the same time-interval, as a so-called "artificial satellite"..., but they really are natural satellites... Some of your pictures surely look like a meteorite or a natural satelliete, not an artificial... See, the whole problem with your theory that such speeds are impossible (and I've told you this before, but you ignored me) is that a bullet recieves only a momentary force as the expanding gasses force it out of the barrel. A rocket has continuous accelleration, until the fuel runs out. Do you know one experiment in which a "military rocket" goes faster than a (starting) bullet? I don't think so... The rockets were invented to transport explosives... They could not start to quickly in order not to ignite the explosives... So you can see them all the time...and especially with military rockets they do accelerate to much after launching... and they certainly do no get faster than a starting bullet, which goes so fast that you can not see it... That is why your chart of maximum speeds doesn't seem to allow for rocket launches (BTW, amateurs in the western desert are getting close to putting homemade rockets into orbit. For the cost of a Greyhound ticket, you could go watch a rocket launched by ordinary people, if you're so distrustful of the world's governments). What is the VELOCITY reached by those home-made rockets? 2,000KPH? That is FAR AWAY from 28,000KPH.... Why do you write "getting close to putting rockets into orbit"? Do you believe in "Santa Claus"? Is 2,000 close to 28,000? I DO NOT THINK SO! |

What is the visual difference between a stone and a satellite?
I've seen also the rendez-vous of the shuttle with the station -
but that was with just binoculars and without the scope. Are you sure that you did not see a two stone or two meteorites? The next time, assumming they're going to restart the flights soon, I'm going to try to make out the shuttle. I expect there will not come a new launch of the shuttle... and if they really claim it... Go to Cape Canaveral, follow the launch... and see it never exceeds a velocity of more than 300KPH, although you need a velocity of 28000KPH... (and so I suppose they wil not dare to do this anymore) www.geocities.com/markpeeters96/a.html |

Is the speed of a home-made rocket more than 2,000KPH? Is 2,000 close to 28,000? www.geocities.com/markpeeters96/a.html |
