Theory about the ISS

While I do theorize that that objects can float in orbit to an extent, the space station I would suggest is too large to be suspended in a circular orbit around the cylindrical earth. I believe all footage of the interior of the ISS is simply taken from a falling airplane, similar to how they simulate anti-"gravity" in movies. They piece it together and make it similar to how they make these films. For the live feed, it is either a low-faring aircraft or a possible smaller satellite in circular orbit, but if you are to look at it, you can see it is obviously filtered. Take a basketball and rotate it steadily while recording. Do you see any "fuzzy" edges or a pitch black blotting out the surroundings? Now look at NASA's live feed. You can tell it is stretched, fuzzy around the edges and anything beyond the earth is pure black. It is evident, the ISS is a fake.

  • I get that this is a joke and all. But if you believe anti-gravity is a thing you obviously don't understand how gravity works

    • Misread it as ISIS...

      • Interesting take. It just goes to show that NASA's claims hold about as much water as a strainer.

          • It's not possible to do continuous "anti-gravity" using a plane for the time-frames you are implying.

                • It's orbit is always steadily decaying; it fires small engines to "boost" (if you will) it into its optimal orbit about once a month. [spoiler]Waits for irrational counterclaim[/spoiler]

                • If you were brought on a rocket into a high orbit around the round earth, would you stop believing it was flat, or would you find some loop hole like "It was all a fake hallucination"

                    • This is bad and you should feel bad. There really are people out there with severe mental instabilities that believe this kind of thing. You and your gimmick buddy should think on that for a while.

                      • Um, have you looked up into the sky and seen the ISS? I have, and it was pretty clear. It looked sort of like the Sputnik (although I didn't see it, I know people who have and described the experience).

                        • I always wonder how it hasn't been destroyed by high energy particles yet...
