Above the planet on a wing and a prayer, My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air, Across the clouds I see my shadow fly Out of the corner of my watering eye A dream unthreatened by the morning light Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this Suspended animation, A state of bliss Can't keep my mind from the circling skies Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

Impressive picture. Any chance to get that in high resolution?

It's fake, I wouldn't bother with it. Do some critical thinking. If the earth is spinning at a high speed and it's also going around the sun at extreme speeds and the space station is supposedly going around the at incredible speeds....then how did the dude make it back to a rapidly moving space shuttle with only compressed air?

When he navigates away from the shuttle it doesnt accelerate off into the distance. It is not under any force of acceleration. Its like if you get out of a car while its moving super fast. You move with the car until the air or ground slow you down. Theres no air or ground out there. So he just moves with the shuttle. The reason the shuttle moves relative to earth rather than relative to the sun along with earth is due to the exponential nature of gravity. The suns gravity is not nearly as strong as the earths gravity when youre so far from the sun and so close to the earth. And so the shuttle and the astronaught outside the shuttle just orbit the earth. Maintaining their paths until some force acts on them. He could float next to the shuttle for hours without any propulsion at all. But im sure you have read and failed to understand basic physics explanations like this countless times in your quest to remain retarded.

If 2 objects are traveling together, then become decoupled the one with the thrust will keep moving. The other will immediately begin to decelerate. Fairly straight forward physics. It would take more thrust to catch back up. You act as if there is no drag. They are supposedly in low earth orbit so there is still an atmosphere so there is drag. Use some logic here.

Momentum and the exponential nature of gravity as you get closer to things are the two physics components that make such a thing possible... the problem with flat earthers is that they all say things like what you just said. Which clearly demonstrates you have absolutely no actual understanding of the things youre trying to disprove. Maybe youre right, maybe youre wrong. But you definitely dont actually understand the concepts youre trying to refute.

When you throw an object out of your window while driving down the highway the object has forward momentum but slows down as soon as it's decoupled. Same principle here. Once decoupled the man is moving much slower than the shuttle. There would be no way to catch back up without considerable forward momentum. I think it's you who does not understand the physics or the concept. Try again, except this time use logic.

I wouldn't bother with it.

Why do you then?
