it's basically a yes or no question. if you're on an infinite flat plane and above you there is sky, is there a horizon?

Your posts do a great job of ridiculing themselves dude. Quit being a whiny brat about us joining in with you on the fun.

No thoughts on Jupiter's moons? Let's get into Jupiter right now because I get the feeling that you're conveniently not going to bring...something...up.

Yes. There would also be an end to the earth and we haven't found that yet.

In terms of understanding the reality that gas can gather around a planet in a similar way to our own tells us a lot. Also, looking at other planets gives us a better idea of what the realities of physics are, as opposed to simply earth-centric physics (though this is often simply in the numbers).
