It does though?

I don’t see people surfing lakes?

Is it easier to move one pound or ten pounds?

It says they are non tidal lol. Bias bias unreliable source lol. The NOAA is sponsored by NASA and the shadow government

Would you be willing to send me some psilocybin in the mail?

going to ignore your willfull ignorance re: NOAA and NASA and whatever other tinfoil you have on today.

... because the shift is 5cm, as opposed to an ocean which has much greater volume, and is thus much more affected by the gravity of the sun and the moon.

or do we also not believe in gravity in your creationist world?

I am an evolutionist. I keep telling People this and they never ask me about it.

It just seems counter intuitive. It is easier to escape the side control of a featherweight than an ultraweavy weoght using the same force.


I know this seems stupid but it is a fair common sense question:

Hey moon, how come you come you act stronger on the ocean then you do on the lake or stream.


Fair?

Also... concerning the moon:


Why are the craters perfectly round.
How as Nixon able to call the moon and our cellphones can’t work in elevators?

The actual amount of shift is a matter of relativity. Perhaps you misunderstand how vast oceans are. The couple feet of tide difference in the ocean is the same as a few centimeters in the Great Lakes.

Here - learn a thing:

They are not "perfectly round"
Elevators are gigantic faraday cages.

That was interesting and a good explanation. Fair enough. I was just curious about the moon, and that didn’t add up to me, but now I understand. Thank you.

Is it true we only see one side of the moon because the earth is always spinning in front of it?

Honestly, thank you for taking the time to learn things.

No problem. I like to ask questions and think about things.

Ok so the rotation is synchronous. How then do meteorites strike it and cause the craters if the earth is always in front of it?

Does my question make sense?

The moon is 238,900 mi from the Earth.

So the meteorites curve around the earth and then hit the moon flush like a bullet from the movie Wanted? I mean I guess that could happen...?

The universe is 3 dimensional. Not sure what you're getting at.

Though not relevant here, gravitational slingshots are constantly used for space travel, so what you are describing can and does happen frequently.

This is perfect. I drew something similar. Which is back to my other question. If the meteorites come in on angles then shouldn’t there be jagged edges on the moon? And not just perfect cercular craters? As if it was always being hit flush and not an angle?

I know this may seem stupid to you, but I have been ok a quest lately of re examining my understanding of reality and I find that there are things that don’t make sense.

Also: how is the moon a sphere yet it is the same brightness on the edges when a full moon? It should be darker on the edges. Fair?
