Picture the waters above contained in a hollow, celestial sphere, which had yet to fall down to earth. The silica was already there, too...(heavenly silica).
So you're not getting earth's ocean water reaching up into the sky, the water is already there from above. The bible says that floods of water issue forth from the mouth of God. So, if he is in the center of the earth, these waters are coming from a central location.

When an earthquake happens, the earth vibrates like a bell that has been rung. Maurice Ewing monitored similar vibrations of the moon.
Seismic vibrations can be more easliy understood if they are traveling simultaneously across the shell of the earth. If the earth were solid, I don't think these vibrations could travel halfway around the world.

Fusion crust on meteorites - Caused by material on the meteroite melting/burning as it enters the atmosphere.
Illumination of the atmosphere during meteorite impact(of glass) - The meteorite has impacted the air in the upper atmosphere, the meteorite has now heated up. Material of the meteorite hits it's critical temprature and combusts instataniously causing a flash.
Rainbows, Halos, Glories, Circumzenith arcs - Rainbows are caused by droplets of water and only occur if you are facing away from the sun. Try it yourself, get a graden hose and put it on a setting that creates lots of mist, on a bright sunny day it away from the sun, an watch, instant rainbow. Halos are caused by ice crystals in high altitude clouds that act like prizims and scatter the light frequencies.
Caustics: auroras - Caused by ions in the upper atmosphere, being highly charged by solar radiation. Glass would block out this radiation.
UV block - Caused by the ozone layer, O3 molecules are broken down by solar energy.
O3 (ozone) --- UV ---> O2 + O
UV energy is very effectivly absorbed by this process.
Greenhouse gases, Mirages: Fata Morganas, Superior, Sun/Moon scale inconsistensies - What do you want to know about them? Be more specific so I can answer, then I'll get back to them.
Comet's tail curvature - Comets are not stationary in space, they move, fast. Material that is blased off from the comet away from the sun, as it moves the material lose momentum and slows down. Different speeds of material that have been ejected would create a curve.
Tektite origin - Caused by materials of the meteorite being melted, and gases expanding inside forming a bubble.

The inside of the earth is not solid though, it is a fluid. Waves of energy especially the ones caused by earthquakes, can travel vast distances in a fluid. Also the timeing of arival of some of these waves indicate that there is shells of fluid with varauble viscosities. It has a ripple effect inside the earth, the dynamics of which your diagram dosent show.
Where does lava come from? Hell?

So God's sitting up there waiting for his created people, of his inverted Earth (which is focused inwardly on His Almighty Self) to do wrong so that he can drop his heavenly bladder's contents on them? He's waiting up there, holding in his pressing need of watery release, waiting for these stupid humans down here (whom he is totally screwing with, by making this inverted world you're describing) to become sinful so He can drop his watery load on them. Right?
Bottom Line: Why would I want to worship a God that's less mature than me? I wouldn't contrive to build a giant water bag and drop it on my child's head. I wouldn't mess with him and tell him that the world is inverted either.
Seems like Cyrus Teed and the Inverted-Earthers are preaching about a God who in the end, seems unworshippable. You know?

yes, but why does it burn?

hmmm, impacting air. seems a little intangible.
Now impacting glass, that's a whole other story.

Already explained this. Please reread the first page.

Well, if there's an opening in the glass in the arctic region, then the caustics are merely projected in to that region from the glass.

Well you just said glass blocks radiation. Does it or does it not block UV radiation as well.

I don't think you really absorbed all the info I initially provided. All these factors had beed explained. Please go back.

Yes I can give a textbook answer too. I think chromatic abberation from glass is a more realistic answer however.

Doesn't meteorites carry cosmic radiation? Tektites don't.
Sounds like you have some issues with your Creator.
The fact the bitterness is exhibited toward some sort of higher power tells me you would be bitter no matter how the earth was shaped. I won't tell you God loves you. You'd have to experience that for yourself.

Parabolas have a focal point, all energy from the point emitted will become become parallel. This will not work with your "Spherical" model. This would work in an elliptic enviroment, but not parabolic.
Heat generated by air friction. Simple as that.
The initial combustion of a meteorite would be as if a head of a match was struck. The intial combustion, metals such as magensium would burn away. Causing the bright light upon combustion due to friction with the atmosphere, not the impact of glass.
I did and it dosn't prove nothing. I was just as lost as I was in the begining.
Now there is an opening? How do you know? Did you metion there was an opening over the arctic regions?
There is no glass up there, UV radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer through chemical reactions.

How sure are you that your answer is correct?
How do you explain tektites with multiple layers? I read up more about tektites, they are caused by meterite impacts. They may not be created by the means I metioned but by sand melting and gases inside expanding from an impact's heat. This is definate.
I also don't understand why we don't see the reflection of the ground in the sky if glass is up there.
I made that on PS. That's what I would expect to see if glass is up there. Why is there no reflection?
No reflection because nothing is up there.
I understand the textbook answer. Would you not also agree that heat can be generated by friction from a solid surface such as glass?

How will your ministry succeed with them? You're making God look like an even bigger jerk.
That's what you're saying: The God of the Hebrews (who slaughtered children, women, etc) is ALSO screwing with our heads in the extreme by making us dream about outer space when in fact, we are locked in a sphere shaped prison with HIM! No, I do not like this part of your theory. I don't want to be trapped in an earth-ball with the childish God of the Hebrews.
I'd respect you a bit more if you laid off the inverted-Earth theory and spent a little more time in the Religious Conspiracies forum, talking about the bible. Over there, I could tell you about how I see God and why your God seems like a child.
It's one thing to flood the Earth. Okay, I can see that I suppose. But to flood the Earth from within a context like you're describing?! That God sat at the center of this sphere and crapped water onto us? Man, that just sounds silly!
Don't get your feelings hurt, because I'm just telling you how I see your theory. Remember, you chose to bear this flag, so you can't get sad when people like me come out and challenge parts of it. This is not a God I want to worship. He's a practical joker.

Not everything hits your glass an nice angles in space so it can skid about. On another note, last Saturday night we saw a massive meteorite streak across the sky, was rather low flying, we could hear a noise, sounded like "fizzing". This indicates that there was metals burning inside of it.

The diameter of the concave earth, would not account for the firsthand measured distance to the moon using doppler transponders on missions like - oh lets say, Apollo. The distance to the moon is greater than the distance inside the theoretical concave earth.
Does the doppler principal change within the space of the concave earth? Do electromagnetic wavelengths change because of some magic principal that the doppler effect used to calculate the range of the Apollo missions are inaccurate?
It took us about 66 hours to travel to the moon and somehow,

In order for a relection to occur in glass the sun would have to come below the horizion. That is if the reflection was of the sun, inverteted.
How relections really work is that the angle of an incoming ray of light is relected in the opposite direction by the same angle. So the image of terrain in a reflection would always be on the opposite of the sun.

On average, however, a good number to use for the true height of the atmosphere is about 400,000 ft (122,000 m), or 76 miles. It is at this altitude that vehicles such as the Space Shuttle are said to make "atmospheric interface" when they re-enter the atmosphere prior to landing. Another "official" value you might consider is 50 miles, or 264,000 ft (80,540 m). Anyone flying higher than this altitude is officially considered an astronaut by NASA and the US Air Force.
