What does a rocket push against in space?

I can feel it why can't you?

do you have a neurological disorder? you may want to get that checked

it sounds bad.

(it may even explain other things as well)

Then why are those satellites never seen in space photos or live streams of space?

Nice of you to ignore the post by OneBigMonkeyToo

What’s that about never.....

Sorry, the utilization of the every day uses of satellites prove beyond a doubt they exist.

And you didn’t answer:

How do I know there are satellites. I grew up rural in the 80’s. My parents went to having only three local channels to hundreds by installing an 8 foot diameter satellite dish. The dish could picked up different satellites by repositioning itself. Where I lived, everyone and their bother had one in their backyard. Some of the early dishes were solid and 10 foot in diameter.

Correct me if I am wrong, but satellite TV and internet is a present thing.......


There is no doubt there are tens of hundreds of satellites in orbit around the earth in the vacuum of space. So how did they get there.

Lol hahaha you can feel it lol.

I now see, I now understand, I now beleive NicSign is correct, why dont you join us, we have the answers



This game has played for far to long, If for the sake of argument we concede rockets can not fly in space, what then will be your summaration and what is the conspiracy being hidden?

give us the truth, please

The ORBITAL distance of the satellites that's why also due to size most are small and the bulk of them are well above the ISS orbit lack of thinking by people like you is so common on here.

For the same reason you can't see cars, or even houses, on the ground in live streams from the space station. The space station is 250 miles away from those cars and houses, so they are too small to be seen from that distance.

Most satellites are 100s, 1000s, and even 20,000+ miles away from the space station. For example, geosynchronous satellites orbit at an altitude of almost 23,000 miles, while the ISS orbits at 250 miles. So they are too small and too far away from the space station to be seen.

Of course, if they catch the sun just right, their reflection can be seen from the ISS, just like we can see a satellite's reflection from Earth.

What are you ignoring now. People have posted links to photos of satellites in space. Is that false? A picture of the international space station as seen in the earth’s night sky has been posted. Is that false? You can see the international space station from earth, is that false? An article citing how to track and spot satellites from earth was quoted, is that false? The source has photos of satellites streaking overhead, is that false? Links to a video of a satellite being deployed has been posted. Is that false? Sources were sited how to obtain information from the Sentinel one satellite, and radar images from the satellite was posted. Is that false? Mirrors were placed on the moon to help measure the distance from earth to the moon, and are still utilized. Is that false? Second by second, satellites provide GPS information, weather information, satellite internet, satellite TV, relay tv broadcasts, and provide satellite phone service. Is that false. Cited first hand accounts and video have been provide of rockets traveling to the international space station, docking, and returning. Is that false. Sources were cited concerning a mission that used rockets to place a space probe in orbit around Venus. Is that false? An article was cited showing how to local and tune in to orbiting satellites. Is that false.

It is a fact, man made satellites are orbiting earth in the vacuum of space. How did the get there?

a reply to: neutronflux

but none of those sources PROVE that satellites exists. Only accessory stories to try to prove their existence.

How does the ability to locate, track, spot photograph, listen, tune into passings satellites not prove they exist. I would guess you could even use the transmissions from a satellite to triangulate its position.

What proof do you have Satellites and the international space station you can spot from earth doesn’t exist?

And.....

Besides we know rockers work in space because of:
Satellite TV
Satellite internet
GPS Satellites
Satellite phones
Satellite weather tracking and surveys
Satellite mapping of earth by radar, thermal imaging, UV light.....
Mirrors left on moon used to measure distance
Hubble space telescopes
Various countries space missions to map the moon
The international space station
Skylab space station
The Mir space station
You can actually see satellites and the international space station from earth
Missions to map and explore Mars
Missions to Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, Neptune, Uranus, Pluto, asteroids, comets...........

Anybody can see the international space station passing overhead, how is that not proof for that satellite?

For Iridium Flares, the satellites are harder to see but they make a bright flash which can be easily seen. What else could be making those flashes right on the scheduled times and places where they are predicted to happen? The flashes are proof of something, if not from the iridium satellites, tell us what you think causes the flashes.

I think you will have greater success, arguing with a cat!! Some people can't be reached..best you can do is not entertain delusion.

a reply to: Arbitrageur

looks like a light. could be anything. People say you can see it at night but you can't. It's vague and not really much evidence because a light in the sky could be anything.

This NicSign guy is, to take a favourite saying here in Aussie land, takin the p*$%s I suspect.

You can see it at night. I have seen it at night. It is very bright. It’s like the third brightest object in earth’s might sky if I remember correctly.

Let’s cite a source to see if there is any validity to your statement of, “People say you can see it at night but you can't”

en.m.wikipedia.org...(astronomy)

The Sun has an apparent magnitude of −27 and Sirius, the brightest visible star in the night sky, −1.46. Apparent magnitudes can also be assigned to artificial objects in Earth orbit with the International Space Station (ISS) sometimes reaching a magnitude of −6.

Seems the ISS is brighter than the brightest start in the night sky?

The brightest planet seems to be Venus at apparent magnitude of −4.92.
en.m.wikipedia.org...

So? The apparent magnitude of brightness of the International space station is brighter than the visible stars and the visible planets is according to you, “People say you can see it at night but you can't”

I guess you are willing to use baseless and right out false arguments.

You ever just go outside at night and look up? Or just wonder where satellites internet and satellite TV comes from?

I’ve never seen it. If people could see it, there would be like a million sightings on YouTube. The only sighting are from crisis actors

Do you have really bad eyesight or have you never looked?

Someone needs to explain to me what i am pushing off of when I take a plane flight. The plane takes off and i am pushed back into my seat. cant be a change in pressure in a cabin, can it? so what force is pushing me backward. I think we will call this momentum and it doesn't require anything to push off of! So momentum can be used to move objects i think there was this guy named Newton that said something about this.


For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.

One. I cited a source on the brightness of the ISS. Do you have any proof it is false or inaccurate?

Two. In the thread “What does a rocket push against in space?”, that you are very active in, a picture of the ISS take from earth was posted.

Have a photo of the ISS, taken from my back yard:

For you to state:

I’ve never seen it.

Is probably another false argument by you.

Or you never read what other people post because you are disingenuous and are not interested in intellectually honest debate.

Either way, just another nail in the coffin of your credibility.
