i have seen the original video as to why they setup the blue background in the ISS, you can still see inside of the spacecraft around the small tarp that was placed. i have not found the original yet i am looking for it. it was a school class project i think.

Hurricanes rotate only because the round earth spins on its axis. Otherwise high winds would blow straight.


Hurricanes always rotate in one direction in the northern hemisphere, and always rotate the opposite direction in the Southern Hemisphere - just as you’d expect to happen on a rotating globe..


To understand this effect , get a globe map of the earth - you know - one of those round balls that turn on an axis, and have a friend turn it clockwise while you look down at it while standing over it - then lay down on the floor and look up at it - now it’s turning counter-clockwise to you, and clockwise to your friend, simultaneously(at the same time).

So what about this dropping a inflatable globe earth on the iss, whose claim is they are in micro gravity. Where objects are supposed to float around.





The inflatable earth globe drops at 5:15

wow really his arm was squeezing it and it popped out floated downwards the direction from him. it did not just drop because of gravity it would of fell a lot faster. boy will people spin anything. its clear it floats downward not fall, what a idiot who ever made the video.

If you are still around, you have ask a few times for a flat earth map. Well i do not have one and will not be getting one unless God draws up one for me.

But i would like to ask how about you show a globe with the land masses (continents) in their actual size and in proper relation to each other.

Hi d taylor,

Good to hear from you again!

A globe showing the continents in their proper size and relations? I thought a standard globe did that.

(Of course, if I post a picture of a globe here, it will be two dimensional but a globe in real life is three-dimensional.)

If you haven't got a map, how do you know the continents' actual size and relation to one another?

No not looking for a flat globe map but the actual sphere with the land on it.

I see information like this and just wondering where is the real globe model.

So anyone could show you anything and you wouldn't have the faintest idea if it was correct or not. Seems a waste of time asking.

I am not asking because i know. I was just wondering if someone has produced a globe earth and said this is it.

This is the exact land masses their shapes and exact sizes, proper proportion and relationship.

I'm not sure if I understand what you're asking. I think any of the first 10 or so of the images here would be reasonably accurate.

Or are you asking how they figure out things like the dimensions of Africa? I assume it's standard map making and navigational skills.

In more recent decades there are satellite images and GPS.
