1. Why do we have titals/tidalwaves here on earth caused by the moons rotation around the earth when there is no gravitational pull from the moon?
Is it the super secret 120mph submarines that causes them?
And could anyone please tell me:
2. If there is atmosphere on the moon, why doesn't the apollo lunar module burn up in the decent?
3. And if there is no gravitational pull from the moon, how can the lunar module use the moons gravity to be thrown back to earth? ( slingshoot )
4. If a pen dont fall to the moons surface ( granted that you are standing on the surface of the moon. How does all the dust and small rocks keep still to the ground. Wouldn't the whole moon look like a giant dust ball?

Mr Lear does *not* have a theory of elementary particles.

Submarines on the Moon? John will love that! Can you link us to that please?

Because the atmosphere is not high enough or dense enough and the gravity is about half of Earth so it would not cause enough friction.
Also the fact that they had ROCKET MOTORS to slow them down might have helped a whole lot with that

And, I fully expect any number of arrows to be aimed at me for this post, but I have a Kevlar vest and am fully ready!
Alright, now here is my point...Buddha, you are a scientist, there is no doubt. BUT, do you have an open mind?
Before you scroll down and answer, consider this: We all know that Einstein struggled to the end to try to find an equation to unite all the 'four' forces...and, he, Einstein, famously, to the end, would not agree to the concept of Quantum Physics. He would not, it seems, agree with Heisenberg.
I don't have the expertise to write a paper to prove or disprove John Lear's Theory of Elementary Particles...
but I can use my critical thinking hat to conclude, based on the last few hundred years, theories are just that....theories. I was taught the basic science of the atom. The smallest particle, we were told. That theory held, until new discoveries resulted in its modification. The 'model' of the atom has changed...theories are proposed, they persist, until new experimental evidence is brought forth, then the theory is adapted.
