Simple question about the speed of atmosphere
This question is for those cranks who hallucinate gravity waves and a speed of force. I was just watching the space shuttle (Endeavour) on NASA TV on its final re-entry, and I was wondering if the lunatics could tell us what the speed of atmosphere is as the shuttle experiences a force slowing its speed. Is the speed of atmospheric force waves c or Mach 1? What does it have to do with slowing the shuttle from 17000 mph to zero as the parachute is finally deployed on the runway? Perhaps morons like Wormley know the answer. |

Perhaps morons like Wormley know the answer. First off we have to understand the question. |

Second, understand there are imbeciles that support that ridiculous hypothesis who would argue in its favour. By analogy, the gravitational field of the Earth (or any other massive body) can be likened to its atmosphere, in that it is part of the body, an extension of its range of influence that attenuates with distance. There is no hard edge to the top of the atmosphere. Imagine if you will that a body such as the Sun simply vanishes out of existence into some imaginary sci-fi "higher dimension" or "alternate Universe" or "spacetime". Is there a delay between the time it vanished and the time the Earth, eight light minutes away, ceases to move in its orbit and flies away from the other planets? |

Then there are the folks who assume that gravity is a force. Second, understand there are imbeciles that support that ridiculous hypothesis who would argue in its favour. The ridiculous hypothesis was made by Androcles. By analogy, So we were expected to understand the question not as a physical question about a physical situation but as an analogy to something that Androcles does not himself understand in the first place. All the stuff about the shuttle and Mach 1 was in reference to the [unstated] analogy, not in reference to anything physical. Rather than understanding the question, the first step is to pose it. Let us agree not to hold our breath waiting for that to happen. |

Perhaps morons like Wormley know the answer. Speed is 1030mph at the equator relative to the Earth's surface that is going at that speed. Shuttles go west,and pick up this added speed to get into orbit with less fuel TReBert |
