If I try to make you land on a large spinning ball, you will fly off because of
the friction.

It will work if you first bring Dino246 up to the speed of the spinning ball's
rotation.

That there explains how aircraft can land on a spinning Earth and rovers can
land on a spinning Mars.

Even when a plane is parked at the airport, it isn't entirely motionless. It's
riding along on the Earth's surface like a cowboy in the saddle of a galloping
quarter horse. The cowboy appears to be motionless 'cause he's just sitting
there; nevertheless he'll easily stay on the pony no matter how fast it
runs because they're bound together.

Perhaps you haven't done any air travel & you like playing with your balls. I'll stick with what I know to be true since I've landed
on the God-created revolving Earth numerous times.

Please, keep displaying your complete ignorance on this subject. I appreciate the entertainment.

The reason planes can land is because the earth is not moving. (y)

An ordinary ball doesn't have enough gravity to keep the water in place.

BTW: Prior to pouring the water, first position its container in an orbit
around the ball equal to its rotational velocity. That way the ball and the
water will both be moving in the same direction at the same speed; and the
ball will have a better chance of staying wet even without gravity to assist.

But a Rainbow is a bow/arc shape. Explain that.

If the earth is flat, why arent rainbows straight? . Like a rainband.

The plane lands on an aircraft carrier the same exact way it lands on the flat earth. :);):cool::p:D:eek::love:(y):whistle:

It's sad that you think you're witty....

You claim that a plane cannot land on a moving earth, but it can land on a moving carrier. Your illogic isn't even internally consistent.

I truly believe that there is presently a detrimentally serious amount of cognitive dissonance - which is afflicting many... :(
