I have long worked on this topic in the background, allow me to post this first here in the Living Room.
Two important topics to understand:
Satellite research on Cluesforum
Does Rocketry Work in the Vacuum?
Two suggestions:
Space Travel is impossible
Space Travel will always be impossible
This means:
Everything that has to do with Space Travel until now must be faked
Everything that will ever be done with Space Travel must be faked
First thoughts:
In the current model of us all, Space is the area above the atmosphere.
Under atmospheric conditions, three main factors play a role:
Temperature - temperature isn't something, it is the registration of something; thermal energy
Pressure - pressure isn't something, it is the registration of something; mechanical energy
Gravity - that mysterious force that keeps us on the ground
Under space conditions, only one of those factors play a role in the space that is almost void of the first 2 (that only can function with an internal source):
Gravity
Gravity is the defining factor of what Space is, so zero gravity is impossible. Cannot exist. The exact opposite is the case; gravity is everywhere.
What is presented to us as "zero gravity" is a physical-mathematical trick of leveling out -a/a, but those are not the conditions of Space. They are the conditions of a vomit comet.
Thermal energy sources under no Space conditions are:Temperature - temperature isn't something, it is the registration of something; thermal energy
Pressure - pressure isn't something, it is the registration of something; mechanical energy
Gravity - that mysterious force that keeps us on the ground
- the Earth >90 %
- the Sun <10%
Numbers are rough, for an idea: try warming up on an unclouded polar ‘night’ with a bright far away Sun.
Mechanical energy sources under no Space conditions are:
- the Earth, mainly the atmosphere - resulting in pressure
- conversion of thermal energy - every man-made propulsion mechanism known including thermal balloons
- us; engineering of other sources
Gravity always just is. The background force that drives us all enslaved to it.
Thermal energy is transferred by three mechanisms:
1 - conduction
2 - convection
3 - radiation
Conduction takes place because of particles moving (some call them atoms and molecules and all) transferring the heat energy and giving as result temperature, mostly in solids.
Convection also is based on moving particles but then in gases, liquids and plastic materials. Needs a pressurized medium to function.
Batteries use a combination of convection and conduction to work.
Radiation is transferred and does not need pressure to work; light, electromagnetical and radiated thermal energy do not stop. A remote control or communication tower uses radiation to process energy to another place.
Space doesn’t have any pressure, hardly, with estimated values, on mostly proper science, as we cannot get there as very very low.
This means 2 cannot exist and 3 gets much more important
1 exists in materials in that space (the Moon, Mercury, meteors), but not in Space itself
That leaves the only heat energy mechanism in empty Space: radiation
And of course the old master around: gravity
Both of these depend on: the Sun
Some propose an electrical or magnetical universe, but if we cannot go into Space we cannot gather data and telescopes are limited and always Earth-bound, so it's useless to speculate about this idea. It may or may not be true, it doesn't matter.
Others propose an aether, that works just as gravity, but then rewritten and rearranged a bit, it may or may not be true, it doesn't matter.
This topic holds the flawed mainstream science against the faked Space Travels.

This is the first idea I would like you to think about, as this defines your understanding of the later steps in my thinking. Probably considering this point, letting it mature for a while, visiting nature far away from all the other hoaxes, you'll see already why and how this makes the whole Space Travel theater crumble apart.
Banned readers as Anders, daddie_o and VexMan will certainly profit from it. And pass it on to Miles.
