Planets Orbit Not Because Of Gravity Energy But Because Of Griff Energy
 
Why does the moon not fly off?

Why do astronauts float in space?

Objects fall to earth at the same speed?, All of this does not make sense.

If astronauts "float" in space, then there is no gravity in space. So whats the moon doing? I thought there is no gravity in space? Very confusing :)

It may be that each planet or moon is held in a gravity ring and between these rings is no gravity. I doubt this is true.

Or is there such a thing I would like to call "Griff" in our universe that keeps things draging along such as the moon orbiting the earth while the earth orbits the sun. (Griff Energy Theory, Paul Garry Griffiths, England, United Kingdom, 20 February 2010,)

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

I think a grasp(or at the very least a quick read) of some Of Issac Newton's laws are needed.

Basically and very roughly, if an object has enough mass, then it will attract other objects towards it. The moon is close enough to be attracted by the earth's pull.

This also explains why the planets orbit the sun, they are "held" in this orbit by the sun's gravity.


I think the observation and problems that you have explained by "Griff" were explained by Newton and Einstein.

Gravity actually is one of the scientific concepts that is falling over. There simply is not enough of it to do what science says it does ie holding the planets in orbit. I was talking to my Dad recently and he is a physicist and he was explaining this to me. It just goes to show science does not hold all the answers

In answer to the op anyway

weightless in deep space…
Well, deep space and Earth orbit are two very different environments, requiring two very different answers. No doubt this accounts for a substantial share of the confusion. In either case we must deal with the effects of both gravitational attraction and acceleration.
Weightlessness in deep space is due to the tremendous distances between massive objects. Stuff is so far apart out there that the gravitational attraction imposed on an interstellar spacecraft is very subtle, but certainly not escapable. So long as we avoid accelerationi by changing neither the speed nor direction of our motion during our observations, our vehicle and its contents will indeed exhibit that freefloating state of being we call weightlessness. But alas, we have escaped nothing - far from it. It is gravity, after all, that organizes solar systems into galaxies and galaxies into clusters. It is gravity that controls the expansion of the universe. Our spacecraft would be subject to these same influences. Although this subtle influence is not strong enough to create 'both feet planted firmly on the ground'-style gravity conditions, the very idea of actually "escaping" gravity is the cosmological equivalent to windmill jousting

There is also an interesting bit on the zero gravity myth

There is loads of cool unexplained things in science, I forget all the details but if you split an atom and take two of the particles to opposite ends of the earth and start one spinning, the other will spin in the other direction at the exact same time at the exact same speed. :shocked:

I was under the impression that astonauts 'float' because they are technically in 'freefall'

Re: Planets Orbit Not Because Of Gravity Energy But Because Of Griff Energy
 
If more people stopped watching vapid crap on the TV, and reading celebrity jizz mags like OK and Hello, and instead picked up a couple of popular science books (which try to explain in laymans term) how the laws of physics work. Then misnomers like "zero gravity" would be explained and understood. Its hardly Newtons fault, that several hundred years after his death, that some idiot coined a sexy, yet factualy incorrect phrase that is now part of everyday language.

To borrow a passage from the christian bible.... Seek and you shall find, ask and it shall be given unto you.

Thanks for all trying to make me look the fool, but,

How can the moon be effected by gravity and not the astonaut? everything falls at the same speed!

Care to explain?


Gravity does not reach out that far so it must be something else, Griff!! You are not taking that from me! :)

Both the moon AND the astronaut ARE effected by gravity - just to a different degree. You could start by reading the thread and paying attention to post 11 for example.

Personally I think you are just on a wind up.

I'll tell you how I learned about gravity.... by choosing to study Physics as a GCSE, and later reading numerous books by learned and intelligent men who try to bring enlightenment to the ignorant....

As a starter for 10 I'll link some sites that explain gravity below, starting with the ever popular (but occasionally incorrect Wikipedia)....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History...ational_theory

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%...al_gravitation

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_principle

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introdu...ral_relativity

http://www.howstuffworks.com/question232.htm

http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/l...ewtongrav.html

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/grav.html

There are many more sites online that can explain Gravity, but happy reading with the list above. ;)

Because the moon has enough mass to show an attraction towards the earth, a person(even in a spacesuit) only has a very small percentage of mass compared to the moon.

Your all are a bit stupid, if everything falls at the same speed, then size an wieight does not come in to it.

So how can the moon be effected by gravity and not the astronaut?

you can all throw links at me but none explain this!

things fall at the same speed, so that makes no sense! the astronaut is closer so should be effected more, but its only floating as theres no gravity away from the earth!

what makes you think the astronaut is not affected by gravity?
astronauts DO NOT FLOAT they orbit the earth at around 17-18,000 mph the same speed as the vehicle that got them there

think of a piece of elastic with a ball tied to the end spin it round and the ball will "orbit" your hand spin it faster and the ball will get further away from your hand ,spin it fast enough and the elastic will break and the ball will shoot off out of "orbit" of your hand and into "deep space" ,....or the neighbours window

Heres another of my theorys:

Infinite Or Not Infinite Universe? - The Simplist Largest

This evidance points to not infinite as Matter has to have ends.

The bounds of Space is infinite. Theres nothing stopping you travelling forward forever, as space is not matter so has no ends.

Gravity pulls, so the astronaut should be pulled to the earth, if he was closer he would, it's called falling!

Actually you don't as your Griff energy/effect is totally forgetting about the centrifugal force that is counteracting the effect of the gravity on items in orbit. If though an astronaut or the moon wasn't in orbit (orbit being the act of rotating around another body) then yes they would drop at exactly the same speed towards earth until they hit some form of resistance like the atmosphere..

Now whilst you desperately go away to try and find some other piece of fiction to explain away centrifugal force let me remind you that the Griff effect has just been commuted to now mean the amount of minimum brain cells a human being can posses and still be able to type ;)

Nope as he's in orbit so the centrifugal force of him being in orbit counteracts the gravity..

if he was close to the earth he would fall to the earth! explain this!

When he gets close to the earth, he starts to fall, the effect of becoming in to contact with gravity.

Extremely easy, close to the earth the atmosphere resistance would slow him down thus cancelling the centrifugal effect of orbit hence he would drop to earth..

It's how a spaceship returns back to earth, they SLOW themselves down and they start dropping..

Now you are doing extremely well with this griff effect.. I believe you're now down to triple figures on the brain cell count and your IQ is a new negative world record :clap:

Jon T 20-02-2010 13:00

Re: Planets Orbit Not Because Of Gravity Energy But Because Of Griff Energy
 
You can reduce this down thus:

Let the force of gravity = -1

Let Centrifugal force = 1

If the end result is -1 the objects falls to earth, if the result is +1 the object is travels away from the earth, if the end result is 0, then the object stays where it is.

Force on the object, ie astronaut, is: Gravity+Centrifugal force = No movement
or..........-1+1=0

no ,because he has enough mass and enough speed to stay at the same distance from earth ,if he speeds up he will move away from earth ,if he slows down he will move closer to earth .The same goes for all objects in space from the planets to the moon

you do realise that if your "griff energy" theory is correct then the bridge you live under will fall on your head cos there's no gravity to keep it up :rolleyes:

I see the griff effect is starting to take it's toll, your word count per post is dropping.. Now it's time to turn off the computer and ask your 6 year old son the true effects of gravity and how it's counteracted by the force produced perpendicular to an object you are orbiting at speed

Gravity extends throughout space, it just gets weaker the further you are away from a body in space. If you put a man at an exact point in space he would extremely slowly start being pulled towards the gravitational pull of the densest object around.

You can't see electrons floating round a 240v cable, but if you touch it it proves it's thier, the same way as the moon not floating away from the earth demonstrates gravity

does that not tell you THERE IS NOT ANY GRAVITY IN SPACE!

astronauts don't float in space

really you should go back to school this is stuff 10year olds do at school and manage to understand

does that not tell you THERE IS NOT ANY GRAVITY IN SPACE! IT'S GRIFF ENERGY!

Tinky Winky floated away and he's looking for an explanation :D

Yes and he floats because there is a cancellation effect of his speed and the pull of gravity...

Repeating yourself and shouting isn't gonna change that..

PMSL!!!!

They orbit the centre of mass of the galaxy they are in.

Have you not heard the saying "outside the force of gravity?"

Play nice without baiting each other, or this thread gets closed.

if i jump on earth, i return to the earth. theres gravity! i lose force because of gravity!

out in space, i just float away!

they are going really,really fast ,a bit like your car that you drive fast enough to bend inertia...and probably space and time aswell :rolleyes:

I take that saying with others like "Jumping out of your skin" or "loud enough to wake the dead".. Just because it's a saying doesn't mean to say it's true..

As it's going around in circles and achieving nothing due to the OP not listening to anybody, it may as well be closed anyway.

Yes. I've also heard the phrase "would spin in his grave" - which is what Albert Einstein would be doing if he could read this nonsense.

Is there nothing more productive you could be doing with your time this morning ... like tidying your bedroom or doing your homework?

Suppose there is that:D

I think im wasting my time here but...

if i jump on earth, i return to the earth. theres gravity! i lose force because of gravity!

out in space, i just float away! i never get pulled to the earth because there is no gravity in space.

Newton did not have a rocket to test this.

I don't know which is worse, the circular reasoning or the flat refusal to read any of the sources that would have cleared up the original question within a couple of hours of it being asked.

Either way, this thread is clearly going nowhere and I'm not about to sit here watching our members get wound up into the sort of feeding frenzy that requires infractions to be issued in order for calm to be restored.

Everybody move along please, there really is nothing to see here. Thread closed.
