I didn't say I was right I said I was speculating and looking for answers. answers that I can understand Part of the problem is you came to a science site, looking presumably for science replies to your questions, yet when they're given you reject them because you don't understand them. You speculate, misconceptions and mistakes in your ideas are pointed out by others who've studied science extensively, yet you take that to mean you're not allowed to speculate. If you're looking to learn, why do you push back so hard against those trying to help? Sorry this is really off-topic, but clarity is needed in order to progress.
Theredbarron Posted August 29, 2018 Author Posted August 29, 2018 I have not rejected any of them. I only speculate to the possibility of something else. I never said anyone here is wrong. As a matter of fact I came here because of exactly that. Do you think I can get this type of information from people just hanging out? Just because I'm contradicting does not mean I'm not listening. A response with "your wrong and I'm right" logic does not make me understand things. I ask for links as to see what information it has so in can understand more and ask questions. What is it do you think I'm doing? Have I once said that all that's wrong? Maybe to know the whole picture you would have to see it so I'm trying to see it. Maybe I'm actually looking how it parallels with all of it. 3 hours ago, studiot said: I blame the education system for fostering the popular myth about the existence of suction and the famous phrase "Nature abhors a vaccum" Neither are true. Even (medical) doctors who are intelligent folk and should know much better fall into this trap. It is the devils own job getting over to them that we do not suck air into our lungs. It is pushed in by outside pressure. I heard it all. I do get how this all sounds. I'm not trying to disprove anything or prove anything. I'm merely speculating as to a possible method of application not that its a new thing either. What else is this forum for. I mean come on its speculations. No need to be so uptight about it all.

Theredbarron Posted August 29, 2018 Author Posted August 29, 2018 Can anyone tell me what elements are not typically effected by static electricity?
t686 Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) 3 hours ago, Theredbarron said: Why is everyone stuck on gravity? I'm talking about static electricity. I get that it looks as though a vacuum is suction and that pressure is actually pushing on it. Wouldn't that intensify the effects of the static electricity attraction or make it stronger in a direction as to appear to suck it up? Isn't static electricity the balancing of electrical properties as material moves near or while in contact with other matter of different properties? Since gravity is constant all around the surface and the surface is contacting itself all around the planet or moon and the matter in the core is moving past and rubbing against under the surface could it then generate static electricity? Not only does the core already have magnetic properties couldn't it amplify the static electrical difference that are being created all around it? This is saying that the crust itself has magnetic properties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field_of_the_Moon The static electricity of the Moon. http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2007/04/static-electricity-could-short-circuit-moon-missions Earth creates Lightning With its size of magnetic field correct? Wouldn't that mean that your entire device should be grooved out in mountains and spinning under vacuum to reduce all pressure off the device, and inside the device would be zero vaccuum. So if you pretend your device is a glass jar under vaccuum you could spin that and do away with the spinning wheel inside the vaccuum (and the outside of the glass jar would be grooved out in mountains, and then inside the glass jar is very close to true vaccuum). There are devices that you can put on top as a lid that will allow spinning, but won't tangle the two hoses. According to what you've shown, it should get very close to a vaccuum. However, like I said there is the problem of the "tilt", which won't allow getting to true vaccuum until that's solved. It's the grooved mountains that cause slippage like the guy above said, so there's no friction or grab that air pressure can hold onto. ie with the grooved mountains on the outside of the glass jar, you could keep sucking air pressure out until very nearly a true vaccuum without causing collapse of the glass, but you won't get to the exact true vaccuum until you solve the "tilt" that I saw in the video that showed the inside of the cylinder (not the vacuum one).

Theredbarron Posted August 29, 2018 Author Posted August 29, 2018 What I'm going for is to make one possible to use static electricity as a force. For what I'm not sure yet but how can I find out how to use something like static electricity in low density environments? I'm not sure if this helps but if I were to add something to the mix in a low density environment in order to increase its effects, What kinds of element's could be used possibly to generate more efficiently. This is why I'm so interested in the moon. It would be a perfect scenario for a low density environment.

I mean come on its speculations. No need to be so uptight about it all. I'll let you know about a "rule of thumb" with regards to science and the scientific methodology. First and foremost, before you let your imagination run free, searching/looking for any new ideas that are not mainstream, please make an effort to get to know the mainstream product, and why it is mainstream and held as valid by most scientists...learn its predictions that have been shown to be valid...research the experiments that have supported its validity...check out all the observational data that support it. Then if you really and truly believe there is a serious fault with the particular incumbent model, start imagining why over so many years, the professionals and experts in that particular discipline, have not found this serious fault. You see that is the scientific method. Theories/models do not get established and then just rest on their laurels. They are conducting experiments everyday, testing the limits and accepted successes of the theories. Even long established theories are tested everyday...Even SR and GR are continually asked to live up to their deserved reputation. If you do that honestly, you will see why the chances of any Tom, Dick or Harry, coming to a forum open to all, to invalidate or propose some new model over-riding the incumbent is pretty close to zero. Best of luck anyway. 5

What I'm getting at is just telling me it doesn't work does not help me understand why nor does it argue or support itself. Why is it flawed? and what is flawed I'm trying to get information so again with the other subject and not this one. If vacuum or gravity gets brought up again then I will ignore all questions related and the person who keeps bringing it up. Would this help? if so then what words or jargon should I use in terms of attracting matter with static electricity? I haven't had time to look at the links that I have been given to me and I was asked to ask so can I have a few to understand some of this stuff.

Theredbarron Posted August 30, 2018 Author Posted August 30, 2018 Ok so as far as I understand the moons gravity is holding the gas that it has but it is also possible that in part static is attracting and repelling some of this gas. Do this sound right?
