Instant communication and modern technology nowadays mean that if anything truly remarkable exists out there, and can be detected by a novice, it's ridiculous to think it not only wouldn't already be known to experts far and wide, but it wouldn't have already gotten spread through word of mouth---through the grapevine. So it's super stupid to believe some amazing secret discovery will be somehow first announced here.

You spoke of less learned folk, I am one of those, you indirectly spoke to me.
But I am getting more learned by listening instead of bitching at him.
I know posters don't like it when Astro shits on their doom, but knowing the thread is by him, you have the option to skim it.

Yet once again, the people who are into "SOMETHING IS HEADING TOWARDS EARTH" are proven to be full of BS.

My guess is that withing 2 days someone else will post a DOOM thread about some object heading towards Earth.
And of course they will be debunked.

That is not a Lens Flare reflecting off Earth.

Anybody buying into that crapis just plain stupid.

Nasa has Tech. Does not allow for Lens Flares. My God. If there equipment had lens flares all the time how would they themselves know what was real or not.

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.
