This was quoted as proof of a stationary Earth in a you-tube video, people actually believe this nonsense.

Education usually cures stupidity, but not always.

Strange how the pole star has been in the same place for all of human history when the earth is said to move such vast speeds in multiple directions.

Astronomical and geological time scales are vast, Jerome. If you compressed the entire existence of our planet into a single year, human history begins on December 31st at about 23:58:46. It takes about 250,000,000 years for the solar system to make one trip around the galactic core; we've made about 1/50000th of the trip since people started writing shit down. Also, everything else is also very very very far away. So as fast as we ARE actually moving, it takes a quite a while before it will look as though we've moved at all.

Yea, I have heard the bullshit excuses, everything is soo far away even though we are moving in a number of different directions at vast speeds, we can't tell we are moving because everything is soo far away.

Its nonsense.

The pole star has not moved in human history.

Don't believe your lying eyes, nor the lying historical record, believe time/space curves. lol

So do you have a better explanation?

Actually the Pole Star has moved very slightly, you need to just pay attention.

You might actually learn something from this,

The funny part here is the 'vortex' view is wrong, we don't travel around the galactic center flat face on, but angled.

Its the same nonsense with the moon is moving away from us, if so, with the gravity calculation, the moon would have been inside the earth not that very long ago on the time scale you are working with.

You have to run these calculations out and they are easily shown to be nonsense.

Has that angle changed over time? or has it somehow stayed the same since the origin of the solar system 4.5 billion years ago. How long does it take the Sun to orbit the Milky Way galaxy, perhaps this will help,

All scientific methods have shown absolutely no motion of the earth. Einstein was needed with his maths to imagine a moving earth.

A moving earth has never been scientifically shown.

A moving earth can only be shown in theoretical maths, no repeatable observable experiment (real science) shows the earth in motion.

They show you cartoons and you are soo caught up in the belief system, you will fall for any nonsense.

Hey, remember when Branson was going to be flying people in orbit like 5 years ago?

Space X will be sending people around the moon next year!!

They keep telling you they are about to do something, then never do it, yet you desire to believe the next soon to come advancement!!

Astronot Don Pettit says that we can't go to the moon because "We don't have the technology anymore, we destroyed that technology and its a painful process to build it back again."

Baahaaaa

The technology to go to the moon has been destroyed and its too hard to make it again!!11!!!11!!1


You goobers will believe anything these frauds tell you.

Because the gale force winds would blow everyone and everything off the face of the Earth, very good, but wrong.
Science has shown the motion of the Earth, unless you deny all scientific evidence that contradicts your own pet theory.

Hey, so how does the air 'stick' to the earth, holding to its rotation, with a vacuum in space?

There should be absolutely no helium, for example, with the time scales you imagine.

I bet you believe water drains opposite ways depending upon the hemisphere.

These old 'proofs' of a moving earth can easily be debunked with the information technology we have today.

Gravity.

There is some helium, but very little. Who is telling you that there should be no helium?

It hasn't. Read the link. Names referring to the star as at the pole date back only to medieval times.
