So there are no satellites on the orbit?No GPS?Funny works for me.Sometimes one should get his nose out of his math books and look at the sky.

I will give all my money (and even my life) to the first person who knows a scientific publication, f.i. in PHYSICAL REVIEW, that contradicts the current 28.800km/hr-limit.

Is he trying to go for the first Darwin award for lack of physics knowledge...

He states: In the air and at ground-level, the highest speed is 1.190km/hr .
Which is Mach 1... every time you hear a sonic boom from a plane this moron is disproved.

[Ianofsmeg16]

There are hospitals specially designed to hold people like him...i think the phrase 'Mad raving lunatic' comes to mind. Or maybe he's watched to much conspiracy programs

[English assassin]

At last, something stupider than creationism.

[The Stranger]

i think he;s totally right...finally a smart man....hey why is everyone staring at me ... AAAAAAAAAH RUN STRANGER RUN ...

no furreall

Exactly. Even basic scientific knowledge and everyday sightings disprove this nutter. This kind of nonsense is almost as bad as the Biostabil 2000.

[Marcellus]

In the air and at ground-level, the highest speed is 1.190km/hr .
High in the sky and only at the equator and only with a flight to the west, airplanes can get 2.860km/hr and nothing more, due to the rotation of the earth (40.000km in 24 hours = 1.666km/hr).
This is the reason why the Concorde is NOT supersonic from NY to Paris.

The Earth may be moving at 1,666km/h, but so is everything on it, even when we think we're stationary. Thus the movement of Earth just isn't counted when talking about the speeds of objects on Earth. The man is talking rubbish.

[BDC]

Heh, funny.

How does he explain using a telescope and tracking satillites in orbit visually?

[discovery1]

IDIOT! Or he needs to hook me up with what he's smoking......

[Arcanum]

Heh, funny.

All Telescopes are sabotaged by the government!

He states: In the air and at ground-level, the highest speed is 1.190km/hr .

Uhh, oh... wait... there must be a plausible reason for that. Ahh! Yes! The sonic booms are faked! There is only Mach 1! Nothing above exists, they just make us believe they exist!

Hah. Now that's informative...

[Viking]

We all knew this already...the fact that the Moon is a big cheese. Despite that, the lunar astronauts brought back stone, wich is a clear evidence that they never were there!

[The Stranger]

yeah thats what i've been saying for years...not me but the rest belongs in this nuthouse damn

[Sardo]

I can't believe I'm seeing this on this site. That is one of the saddest individuals I have ever seen in this town, and I haven't even had to listen to his theories yet. I saw him for the first time two or three years ago, at a public debate between Belgian politicians. At the end of such a debate, people in the audience get to ask questions, and he asked wether any of the politicians would be willing to bet that man had ever walked the moon.
Yesterday, I went to another one of those debates, and good ol' spaceman was present once more. Only this time, questions were to be asked by text message, so I guess he had to walk away disappointed.
Anyway, what I mean to say is, after all those years of scouring debates and classrooms (as a friend of mine can attest) and probably being laughed at a lot, shouldn't it be clear to him that maybe, just maybe, he ought to move on to something else? It seems pretty obvious that he's not going to get anywhere with this, if you ask me.

[The Stranger]

he's the reason why dutch people say belgians are Stupid :P just a joke m8

Sniff-sniff... "Do I smell international nastiness?"

[Sardo]

Nah, you probably smell Dutchiness.

International nastiness between our two countries are sort of a tradition.

Of course, we're right in our nastiness and they're wrong, but that's a whole other story.

Only thing smelling 'round here are my armpits

Of course the moon is made of cheese. Haven't you watched 'Wallace and Gromit: A Grand Day Out'? Conclusive proof that the moon is made of Wensleydale Cheese and inhabited by sentient ovens.

Someone make a dummy email account and send this fool his proof. Natural selection must be enforced.

[Kekvit Irae]

Hurray for backroom material!

EDIT: OMG! 1000 posts!

I saw foton. Moving on...

He's been saying this for over ten years, the things he claims are hard to disprove, since he won't accept certain other 'known facts', several engineers, professors and helpful individuals have tried to convince him, but he won't bulge.
There's even a response from someone at NASA on his site.

[Sigurd]

From his site... written by one called Walter.

Q. - What about supersonic flight ? Not only fighter jets, but even= Concordes fly faster than sound nowadays; and they're accessible to everybody who'll pay....
A. - A plane can never fly faster than 340 m/s or 1200 km/h at sea level. (All of you AngloSaxons, please convert these figures to the= appropriate units..). You'll find out when asking an air company about flight times Europe - U.S. The air at the Earth surface rotates along with the= ground (that's one full tour in 24 hrs). But higher air layers move slower, and eventually the top layers hang perfectly still. This means there's a constant "draft" high above the ground; an aeroplane can take advan- tage from this by climbing high enough. Then, it still flies no faster than the speed of sound, relative to the air surrounding it. But to an observer at sea level, it does seem to break the barrier.... Note that this effect will only work in one direction - and that's why a transatlantic flight can take substantially more time in one= direction than the other.

Some people have contacted air companies (here in Belgium, that's Sabena : 02/723.23.23). A Concorde of British Airways flies from London (Heathrow) to New York (JFK Airport) in 3h50, and back in 3h40, twice a day. Unfortunately, the price is 2,642 =9C for single flight and 4,367 =9C for= retour. This means 1550 km/h - but Mark Peeters didn't find these figures= convincing. As you notice, some of us take this real seriously indeed !

[edit]: Damn, I forgot my important point:

[Beirut]

Hmm, received a complaint about this thread. To be honest, don't really see why though. Better play it safe...

Be nice or else!

My job's done, back to my cereal.

I know, i'm just saying sometimes Natural selection needs a helping hand (as in this case)... *hides axe* but it wont be me who does it... no not me.

(by the way i am joking about killing him )

are you sure he isn't a dutch guy in Belgium
