Why airplanes taxi

Same place everything Anthony posts comes from, straight out of his
ass.

What does that have to do with taxiing?

You tell me, you posed the question.

Only with infinite friction.

I think the meaning of logic got slighty warped as Mx's spacecraft passed
the most recent black hole. ;-)

The statement that started this thread was fundamentally incorrect. I've
illustrated why.

There aren't any molecules in space. It's a hard vacuum.

A hard vacuum has lots of molecules. If you start going very fast,
they are going to hit you pretty hard. There is no such thing as
truly empty space...

Exactly, why do you think the Enterprise had the big deflector dish on it.

There is indeed an argument to be made for this post posterior
postulation post haste.

Assuming Mxsmanic on roller blades and a smooth surface, both Newton and
Chef Boy Ardee do theoretically address the possibility that eating X
amount of baked beans can be translated into Y amount of posterior
acceleration...considering the friction of the roller blades on the
surface and the opening size of Mxsmanic's posterior orifice of course.
I think the Calculus works.; Not at all sure about Mxsmanic however, as
I understand he doesn't work.

The resistance is a function of the density of gas molecules not
pressure
density is related to pressure by
D=PM/RT
M=molecular wt
P=pressure
R=gas constant
T=temperature ( absolute )
ie the lower the temperature the higher the density
so what is the temperature in interestella space?

The classic gas laws only work when a volume of gas is contained.

Then FART man......FART!!!!!

Well a little while ago at my airport somebody tested that theory out.
It was a short ground roll, er, run. His first clue something was wrong
was it took so much power to taxi.

:-) I am feeling profound today...

No you haven't you moron:

move forward on the ground.

taxi: this word implies that the airplane is moving under its own
power.
move forward: this indicates that the airplane is in motion for the
above stated reason.

Your reading comprehension skills are lacking Tony.

I'm just applying your flavor of logic.

Nope. Show me a wheelless airplane taxiing. Skis don't count ;-)

From the vacuum of his innerspace, which, due to the lack of friction,
flows unrestricted, ad-infinitum...
