Another practical demonstration that there is no evidence showing objects falling. Once released from the reference frame (movement), they show no signs of acceleration downwards but lose weight , buoyancy and density (which are caused by motion).

So are you saying that when something ‘falls’ towards the earth it does not accelerate?

I did an experiment at school when I was 13 using wooden cars, ticker tape and weights to demonstrate that acceleration due to gravity is not affected by mass but they all did still accelerate.

I’m not trying to be a troll but you are going to have to explain in much simpler terms what it is that I don’t understand here.

Yes, it's clearly demonstrated in this experiment. You can do the same experiment with water. There is an upward vector caused by motion of the earth.

My reply to this would be what does the flame do if it’s not in a sealed jar? Not what we are seeing here.

Do you deny what the experiment shows? Is there a downward force? If so, please demonstrate

If I push a candle in a direction and it’s not in a closed container the flame will not move in the direction of the force. Anyone who has ever carried anything with a flame on it will tell you that is true.

This phenomenon is caused by the flame being in the sealed container. From the candles point of view the earth is accelerating towards it. From the earths point of view the candle (+the jar and air inside) is accelerating towards it. The physics that explain both are the same. Therefore we have to look at other factors to decide which is actually happening. Is the earth moving up to meet the container or is the container moving down to meet the earth. Since we know from many observations that the earth is a sphere, unless it is expanding it cannot be moving ‘up’ in every direction at the same time. If the earth was expanding it would be observable and measurable, and this has neither been observed or measured therefore it’s reasonable to conclude that it is no the earth moving to meet the container but the container moving to meet the earth.
