So it's super stupid to believe some amazing secret discovery will be somehow first announced here. |

If there equipment had lens flares all the time how would they themselves know what was real or not. Give me a break. As someone who has had to work with NASA data I can tell you that lens flare and internal reflections are everywhere. All you need to do is look up the term avoidance zone. [link to lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov] If lens flare did not occur then it would not be necessary to leave such a wide margin around bright objects. BTW most people are misusing the term lens flare. Lens flare occurs when an object, say the Moon, is not in the field of view of the telescope. It is stray light scattered into the optical path. Internal reflections occur when a bright object is in the field of view and you get secondary reflections off of the various optical components. |
