I heard something new that realy makes you wander. If the earth is rotating as they say than how airplanes can go in straight line? If earth is moving under them they should land way off the desired destinacion.. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ They are not connected to the earth so rotacion shouldnt apply to them, it applyes only to cars and runing animals but not on airplains and bierds.. Also when you jump from baloon that is wery high up, you shouldnt fall straight down, if the earth is rotating it should move under you and you could newer fall on the same spot that you jumped over.. ๐Ÿซข

I cant beleave this newer came to my mind for entire life.. ๐Ÿ˜ต

What else would it do? Space doesn't have friction against the environment. If it did, how would other planets have rings.
