The moon landings never happened. No one knows how fast/slow someone would fall on the moon. Likely, objects would fall on the moon at the same rate as on earth, due to the universal accelerator. However, since the noon is a sphere (much smaller and closer to earth's surface), it is an intuitively obvious fact that any object not fixed to its surface would roll towards its south pole until it eventually fell off into space. Only Flat planetary bodies can support life (like humans) that do not directly root themselves to the planet's surface.

  • Okay, since the moon landings are fake (why would NASA and the gov. fake it?) I have another scenario for you. So when you fire a sniper, you have to account for bullet drop, right? Well, the average sniper shot moves about 900 meters per second, and let's assume our target is 450 yards away for simplicity. That means that in that 1/2 a second the earth will have moved upwards 4.91 meters. Since the shot is suspended in the air, the earth will have moved 4.91 meters upwards and hit the bullet, assuming the gun was lower than 4.9 meters or 16 feet above the ground. That would mean to hit that target they have to aim 16 feet above it to account for the bullet drop/earth rise. Now obviously they don't have to do this, because the earth doesn't move upwards.

  • The Universal Accelerator (UA) acts on the bullet due to the temporary thrust produced by the gun. For planes, bullets, and other small objects thrust+surface area= ability to be acted upon by the UA.

  • [quote]Thrust+surface area= ability to be acted upon by the UA.[/quote] So now the UA not only affects earth, but "small" objects as well? So the UA now makes earth and high speed projectiles move upwards?
