Can you answer five science based questions asked by Mark Sargent? Apparently, a physicist at Georgetown University was unable to answer those five.
Questions 1, and 2

Question 1: Long Distance Photography.
"The mainstream science formula for the curvature of the earth is 8 inches/mile squared. An easy comparison would be the rate of 32 feet/second/second. So 8"/mile/mile. Two miles is 2 x 2= 4x8" or 32. Three miles is 3x3=9x8 or 72 and so on. At 50 miles the curvature is 50x50x8, coming in at over 1600 feet of curvature. And yet with HD cameras we can pull boats back into frame that are well beyond visual range. Not only does the new technology clearly show it's not a mirage but the same objects can be viewed in infrared, and targeted ship to ship by beam radar. Can science explain this? They had no answer."
Question 2: Vaccuum vs. Gravity.
"The force of a vacuum is measured in units of torr. Even a low-level vacuum can overcome gravity here on the surface. In building molecule-free chambers for the manufacturing of electronics, a series of massive pumps are needed to create a 99% vacuum. That's negative 9 torr. And for the remaining 1%, horsepower isn't enough. It can only be achieved by a chemical leeching process. That being said, how is the negative 10 torr vacuum of space not ripping off the atmosphere of this world? What is gravity? And remember, there are gases that already defy it like helium, hydrogen, and flurocarbons. Is it more logical to suggest the atmosphere is being contained in a pressurized, contained system? They had no answer."
