Because the portal is moving them through it

Like how you would move through a hoop if it passed through you, it’s just a door through space

Do we agree that the massive block with the blue portal is not moving? So, imagine we are standing right in front of it when it happens - what happens exactly? How do the people appear?

Yes the blue portal isn’t moving

The people appear because the orange portal is moving towards them, the people then, like through a moving door, just pop out the other side.

It’s a door way through space, not a momentum giving portal.

Can you not see the orange portal moving? They don’t jump through it, this carrying their own momentum through. They are stationary through it so coming out they will also be stationary

Of course I see the orange portal moving. So we agree the orange portal is moving, the blue is stationary.

So, when you’re saying “the people just pop out the other side”. What does that mean? Do they pop out one by one? So one moment, no one is there, the next moment one person spawns and after that the third person spawns? Or do they spawn altogether? Or does each person come from the portal centimeter by centimeter, atom by atom - pushing through the portal?
