Ok, I am listening, but this is nonsense, I mean the Vienna experiment. Even when they proved what they wanted to prove (Gravity exists and works as we know).

They just need excuses to ask for more money, they don't know what else to do for money.

It's ridiculous. These scientists are not serious. What were they trying to accomplish? **None** of those measures are necessary.

The Cavendish experiment shows a strong effect of gravity on masses, you can repeat it as many times as you wish to discard any mysterious "electrostatic" influence (from storms or whatever). It is very very simple.

The fact that they are attempting to isolate one specific "force" (gravity - which isn't a force according to einstein) by putting it in a vacuum, etc, proves that other forces would absolutely have an effect on the results of the experiment.

You're approaching this dishonestly, which I expected.

No, I think they wanted to "prove" (for some mysterious reason, maybe money?) that what we observe every day in regular Cavendish experiments, can be replicated at smaller and smaller scales. In which case the measures are justified.

But I mean, you don't need that 😆 for a regular Cavendish experiment, just use lead batteries, man, they're cheaper than freaking gold ffs!

Maybe I'm being to harsh with these Vienna scientists. I think that next time it would be better if you provide us with a link to the study, besides the link to a video where the study was discussed.

Maybe they had reasons to do this experiment at very small scale, and I'm just talking rubbish here, don't know.

Gravity is a weaker effect than electrostatics, therefore a stronger force would render any supposed results of such an experiment void… since you can’t exclude their effects and therefore you can’t prove that they are not affecting the results. That’s why they are trying to conduct an experiment in isolation by attempting to eliminate the effects of other factors and forces.

Your attempts to dismiss it because of funding are quite funny. If anything, you should be trying to argue for the validity of it, since cavendish is poor evidence at best for the aforementioned reasons.

If you listened through, Austin would refute what you are claiming in that very discussion. You need to cling to that experiment though, as inconsistent as the results of it can be, because it’s one of the very few hopes you have to keep your model going.

Good luck trying to answer any of the other questions posed, since you simply suggested the first one for exclusive evidence of the earth moving around the sun doesn’t matter.

More and more I’m convinced the globe model is dead, and people are waking up to this all the time - at least, those who can be honest with themselves.
