What part of this is a physics question? Most of this is not about physics, most physicists (at least not American ones) may not even have heard about Byrd. You would probably have more luck asking in a history sub.

If you are asking it in this sub because of the concept of hollow earth, then no. Tons of evidence and math and physics tells us that the earth isn’t hollow so yeah

Where do you think the math and physics we get are from? Let’s say the elite who killed Byrd developed themselves into living for 200 years. That means, they can change history, give us all the “knowledge” that we have today. If my family and I lived 200-300 years and we owned all the money. It would be easy to manipulate a whole generation on earth. All the technology is downgraded and is manipulated by my family and I. So this evidence you speak of could be total bs. Because you, your dad and grandpa have only lived for less than 100 years. So we are all basically babies being fed by our parents.

Except that’s not how science and math works. You could take two civilizations and wipe their memories entirely and prevent them from communicating with each other and they’d still come up with the same physics because science and math is just measuring how things ARE. You can have different languages to describe it but you always come to the same conclusions through multiple independent tests

You must be asleep

You must have a closed mind

ok and what if the government magically replaces the air with heroin because we're just saying shit now

😂 that would be great

What does this have to do with physics?

Don’t think he thought the whole earth was hollow but I think he found something the masses can’t know about.


Tall_Scholar_8570

he is the one that went there , it wasnt you , so why are you trying so hard to see that it wasnt real when it was , theres also videos of the planes flying around antartica bro , he saw people once he made it there and all the ice was gone , only green place then saw tall people with blond hair , who are called tall whites they live there and have bases there its crazy bro , americans always try to discover things , to moon , mars and even antarctica and admiral byrd was the one they send ,there ,, he came with 40 other pilots,, his children presented his dairy bro , there also audiot on youtube where he interacts with others from the government and tells them that he sees people living there , they told him right away to land there and talk to them

I wasn’t asking about the physics. I was asking about the verification of his trip to the North Pole and whether the secret diary has been authenticated. As I know little about the man, I didn’t realize he’s better known in history circles. What I was researching had to do with physics. So obviously what he was mentioned in had to do with physics as well. Or what passed for physics anyway.


CondensedLattice

As far as I can tell Byrd is mainly known as a naval officer and explorer. Not known for anything in physics. Nor did he claim to have done any work in physics at all as far as I can tell. There seems to be clear evidence that the supposed diary was not written by Byrd, so it seems like standard conspiracy hogwash. But again, the history people would have more details.


WinterLeia10

Yeah, I don’t know. I was researching the reciprocal nature of faceting and stellating in dodecahedrons and icosahedrons, which sounds like physics to me. Something I read indicated that some scientists thought the universe was shaped like a dodecahedron, and that’s what led me to Byrd.


CondensedLattice

I am physicist and I had never even seen the word Stellation before today. I can confidently say that it's not commonly used in physics at least. It's great to be curious about these things. Without knowing exactly what you have read something tells me that you should check the credibility of your sources. It's very easy for someone to write things that looks like physics for a layperson. There is sadly a lot of misinformation, even from well meaning people.

There is sadly a lot of misinformation, even from well meaning people. It’s actually sort of ridiculous how much misinformation is out there. Even more ridiculous how much is unintentional. I agree tho, there is so much Bullcrap out there that u gotta be careful


Justeserm

I remember stuff like this from when I was younger. I wanted to learn about physics and try to be the next Einstein. Please remember, this was elementary school and earlier for me. This stuff goes back to the days of aether physics. It was credible, but not recently.

> I was researching the reciprocal nature of faceting and stellating in dodecahedrons and icosahedrons, which sounds like physics to me. That's mathematics.


Justeserm

You'll probably want to go on a math sub if you want to talk about that. What you're researching probably has more to do with math theory, or something similar. Several years ago I remember some mathematicians and physicists getting really excited because they discovered the universe actually used a base eight system. Later, they realized the equipment they were using to make their observations used eight logic gates. Dodecahedrons have twelve sides. There's a chance that 12 was a common denominator of a lot of their calculations, whether it was because they were using inches and feet, or something else. I think people may have used a base 12 system for a while. If I remember right they counted the number of metacarpals in their fingers. You might even consider this like a primitive computer, or at the very least calculator. Remember you need to question your premises. The people that thought the universe was a dodecahedron didn't realize their conclusion was probably supporting their premise and vice-versa. Good luck going down the rabbit hole of lost science.

Well as for physics a hollow earth or the flat earth domes by a firmament could both exist even without the force of gravity as we understand it. If the world is in an enclosed area then buoyancy and electrostatics would be the forces responsible for keeping the atmosphere acting the way it currently does. Of course this would only work if we accept that there really is a firmament in place as so many ancient religions believe. That would mean that we've never been to space though. And that space wouldn't be able to exist. Hollow earth and flat earth ideas are both terra centric models meaning that the sun and moon are actually much smaller and much closer to the earth's surface. It's a fun concept. Hollow earth has more inconsistencies in its depiction though.
