    It doesn't need drag. A bullet fired and a bullet dropped from the same height will hit the ground at the same time. Even on the moon that'll only be a few seconds

    It's a great link tbf. The idea of holding your breath being a massive mistake was interesting as well. But I did think that holding your breath isn't about keeping hold of oxygen, it's usually to prevent water getting in under drowning situation. So in space... you could breathe out as much oxygen/CO2 to empty your lungs as much as possible and then hold your breath?

  6. What is gravity? Even Newton could not define it.

    How do stars work? The Standard Model still tries to stick with Eddington's idea that stars are giant thermo-nuclear reactors in space, but no one has been able to produce a working model that explains the workings of all stars. Instead, we have an hoc models for each type of Star.

    Dark Matter and Dark Energy. No scientist on Earth can prove that either exists. They are fudges invented and employed by theoretical mathematicians to explain the Universe on idealised Einsteinian principles.

    I could go on, but there is little point in it, because it won't make any difference. You are far too blinded to even want to try to look.

    No Kipper. What I have is a critical mind that looks at the evidence, rather than forming my opinions based on myth.

    yeah, but not for long, about 15 seconds until black-out from oxygen deprivation

    Gravity isn’t a thing.

    The World according to Kipper.

    Yeh in terms of blood oxygen and the rest of the fatal effects of being in space. I was just trying to cover one point in terms of holding your breath causing your lungs to rupture because of difference in pressure - tried to tackle that just for the fck of it <laugh>

    Camels don't store water in their humps. The water is stored in the camel's bloodstream, rather than being stored in its fatty hump, which serves as a source of nourishment when food is scarce.

    So scientists have never been proven wrong in the past?

    I'm sure I've seen/read of scientists in the modern era rebuke some old theories

    I would quite like to see a well-established widely known set of scientific principles completely turned on their head. Would be fcking great tbh <laugh>
