The earth is spinning at 1000 miles per hour
 

Yet flying a plane let's say 1000 miles in the opposite direction and back takes about the same time.

lol, must be gods work, ROFL

I believe its because the atmosphere rotates with the earth.

and the other way around

What kind of plane?

No, the earth must be flat. Only solution.

They explain things like this when you get your concealed carry permit.

So...the moment you leave the ground and hover...within an hour you should be 1000 miles away from your starting point?

Yes, obviously :)

it's gravity. :2 cents:

what he said. :2 cents:

this all is fake?

Edit. Wrong quote

Did you see the retarded Reddit post where the guy simply could NOT be made to understand this? "The atmosphere rotates with the Earth." "Yeah, but .. but .. derp."

Explain please

Franck's on to us! What do we do?

Relativity. :2 cents::2 cents:

It's like driving 120 miles per hour and bitch slapping a hoe.
The hoe is actually traveling at the same speed of the car(120 MPH) but
your pimp swing is only traveling at 60MPH. Yet that bitch's head could not out run
the pimp slap.

:1orglaugh

Prove it!!

Can a plane take off if it is on a treadmill?

Can a helicopter take off if it is on a turntable?

So if I jump off a high dive the pool might not be there when I land?

If you're a high enough jumper, yes :)

Not necessarily. If there's a good jet stream you can gain or lose time depending. :thumbsup

I wonder how many people in here have even taken a physics course, even a conceptual one.

Imagine though in the future they will shoot us to the edge of space and then drop us back in at the right time. Maybe this really what these space tourism people have in mind. Imagine the fuel savings.

I wanna go fast!

can go back in time one day:thumbsup

must be trolling...but im not sure about others in here...wow..lol
