I'm very sorry to hear that and I'm sure that @prodromos didn't know. Unless you've announced it on here, how would he?
If our atmosphere was enclosed in a container then air pressure would be the same whether you were on the beach or on the top of Mt Everest. The fact that air pressure decreases as you go higher proves our atmosphere is not enclosed.
No. It actually perfectly follows the laws of physics.
No, we can't see it because it doesn't exist.
Or you can go out into a remote area and simply look up. It sill isn't a dome.
Yes, the 'appearance', not the reality.
No, I had no idea he had passed away.
I'm so sorry; I didn't see your announcement.
Well, there is the issue that the lines of force are nearly perpendicular to the earth's surface at the North and South poles whereas they are parallel to the earth's surface everywhere else. Most compasses only work with the latter.
Absolutely but was trying to keep it simple.
Alas, it doesn't seem to make a difference how simple we make it. Certain people will still not understand.Absolutely but was trying to keep it simple.
Never mind what a video says. Polaris, or the Pole Star, is part of the constellation of stars known as Ursa Minor. In the bible, is mentioned three times ,each mentioning it alongside other groups of stars:
Yes, as I said, when the moon is shining, there are no clouds obscuring it. Clouds would have an insulating effect, keeping some of the warmth of the previous day in, so the earth doesn't get so cold on cloudy nights.
Not being an expert on weather satellites, I would have to guess that the white material in your picture is probably a parachute to enable the actual satellite to land back on earth without being damaged. Here is one of literally thousands of pictures I found of an actual weather satellite:
I didn't know, so I looked it up, and found this:
Yes really. That map of the Arctic was born out of imagination, not observation.
No, not a black rock. But yes, the nearer one gets to the magnetic north pole, the more the compass needle tries to point downwards.
