Yeah. If anything rises "perfectly straight up in the sky" and "hovers" (assuming by "hover" we mean "fly without moving" as is the common usage of the word), then whenever it lands, no matter how much later in the future, it will be at the same spot it took off at. I'm not sure what the point of the comment is, these are just the definitions of words.
Also, if you take off and fly straight north at 500 miles per hour for one hour and then land, you will be 500 miles north of your starting point (assuming you started more than 500 miles away from the north pole). Also just definitions.
LOL. The video basically demonstrates that relative velocity works exactly as "globetards" say it does. Note that while on the truck, definitely do not hang your arm or leg over the side and hit a sign passing by, as it will be moving 80 km/hr. Also note that while getting launched down the bed of the truck, definitely do not hang and arm or leg over the side and hit anything attached to the truck, as it will be moving 80 km/hr.
But, if you do the experiment correctly, you land on the street as planned. Also, just to be a stickler, the video is entitled "He Trusted Physics..." but this is not quite right. Only some fool would not trust "physics" when it is a concept as simple as relative velocity. What this guy actually trusted, and this is much less certain and scarier, is engineering. If the sled launching system had a 10% error, the guy would have had to land at 8 km/hr, which is 5 mi/hr. Every additional 10% on the error would be another 5 mi/hr when hitting the pavement.
The "Jesuits" do not say that the earth is "spinning 66k mph." "Modern" astronomy (where "modern" means the past 400 years or so so is a bit of a stretch of the term) says that the earth and everything on it, including you, is moving about 66k mph in orbit around the sun. Not feeling that motion does not require the sled launching system demonstrated here. Anytime you sit in any vehicle moving at a significant speed, that vehicle is moving at a speed which would kill you if it were to hit you, and yet you feel stationary in your seat because you are moving the same speed as the vehicle. Do you feel like you are moving >500 mph when you are on a jet plane?
Incidentally this "modern Jesuit" astronomy states that the spin of the earth causes 1k mph motion at the equator, but the speed caused by this spin is latitude dependent and is 0 at the north and south poles. To see why this is the case, just get any ball and spin it.
Yeah, of course. Lemaître was basically the first proposer of a theory along the lines of what is now called "The Big Bang," although he apparently (according to Wikipedia) used the phrase "primordial atom." Something like the Hubble Law (which is officially called the Hubble-Lemaître Law) and its implications on the distant past / universe origins has nothing to do with the orbital motion of the earth around the sun. The solar system model predates The Big Bang, Lemaître, Einstein, and Relativity by centuries.
And yes, he was a Jesuit priest. If you reject The Big Bang because the original theory is from a Jesuit then I guess that is your right. I personally do not have strong feelings about it, as it seems difficult to me to look at the present view of outer space and project that backwards to when the universe was supposedly smaller than an atom. I don't mind that people do that, I guess, it is just not something I care too much about.
I personally always thought it amusing that modern "anti bible thumper trust the science" people, who have replaced The Book of Genesis with The Big Bang, seemed totally unaware that it was a Catholic priest who came up with this theory. When one considers that it seems to harmonize science with religion, it is a bit interesting.
If u raise a helicopter off the ground perfectly straight up in the sky at maximum altitude..
hover for hours..
bring it straight back down....
you'll land in the exact same spot u took off at.
Thanks you!

??? so physics works in practice as the theory says so
Thinking is hard

Every hear of Georges Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaître?
Yeah, of course. Lemaître was basically the first proposer of a theory along the lines of what is now called "The Big Bang," although he apparently (according to Wikipedia) used the phrase "primordial atom."
