I'm a shill now. Ask me anything.

The space Farce?

Pole shift in 5 years or less?

I want it to go away! Nasa must have a clue!

I agree. That's not why I posted this thread. I posted this thread to disclose my new connection and the truth. You're welcome :).

I was able to fight off the false copyright strikes so far, and I now label all my videos with a logo to try to prevent similar problems in the future.

Thanks! My work won't really be on the engineering side of things, but we all have to work together to make the mission a success!

Can you please ask around as to why they are always referred to as, 'Little green men'? It's very offensive to those of us who prefer a different color and it's also very sexist.

If an apology isn't given now and everyday for the rest of NASA's life, I get on twatter and gather the legions of other emotionally retarded Emocrats and we will begin to protest all your sponsors... I mean, aside from what we already do by not working and paying taxes. Protesting is hard work and very demanding.

APOLOGIZE for the sexist and... um, colorist remarks.

Commendable action.

Personally, I identify as a fully erect Falcon Heavy, but I haven't had any better luck getting NASA to address me as such or give me access to Falcon Heavy-only bathrooms.

So what is the latest on planet 9? Have NASA ever located it and was it the culprit for the perturbation (tugging) on the outer planets like Uranus and Neptune? Could it have caused the axial tilt of 98 degrees of Uranus?

Still thinking of more Q's :)

Congratulation Astro! How do you feel on such a huge achievement?

The closest I get to US space hardware is reception of NOAA weather sats.

Still hasn't been found. If it is, you'll know. There are competing theories to explain the clustering of extreme trans-neptunian objects' orbits that formed the basis for evidence in favor of Planet 9.

So it still remains to be seen if it really exists or not.

I'll feel a lot more accomplished once I've participated in my first mission, right now there's a lot of work in front of me. I'm keen to set up a dish and start receiving NOAA sat data as well.

Rumor has it that in ancient times perhaps Saturn or Jupiter was a low mass star, there are even hints that perhaps Saturn tried to ignite and blew out ejecta that formed the rings and moons around it. One larger body ejected was Venus, it hurled into the inner SS like a comet. It even had a huge tail like a comet (still has a very faint tail) and could have been responsible for the visions spoken of by ancient civilizations. What are your thoughts on it being the culprit for tales of a "fiery dragon" traveling in the heavens?
Does NASA have any pertinent info about such talk?

hi astro
ime a long time glper ac,and a keen astrophotographer,how hard is elon musks starlink project gonna hit us lowly amateurs,or will someone in the software industry find a way to eradicate the streaks these sats will leave on a long exposure?
ime moving house soon so wondering whether to get a internetlinked hire scope or new setup/
thanks

OP, will you find out the truth about Area 51 and Roswell and post it here.

Hey, OP, I have something to ask you. Since the Earth is flat, is the Earth made of sugar cookie dough, chocolate chip dough, or just plain sourdough?

Comets were fiery dragons referred to by the ancients, the bunk about Saturn spitting out Venus and Venus being a comet are just bunk. Venus's ionosphere is not something you can see by eye or even in the eyepiece of a telescope.


In fact, you can find whole volumes detailing the accounts and observations of various ancient comets and their rough orbits based on those observations in this impressive set by Gary Kronk:

I highly recommend it, I've used it before, it's a great resource.

Depends on the location and time of year.

In the video description you'll find a link to a website you can use to generate your own simulated sky charts counting how many Starlink satellites you can expect to have above your horizon at a given set of coordinates and time.

Your best bet is to use something like Kappa Sigma Clipping to remove the streaks with a large number of sub-exposures. Having a large number of sub exposures isn't always practical though and for it to be effective those subs need to span a good range of time as well. This shot of Atlantis in the museum looks like they let me in after hours to take a picture of it with no one else there:

In truth it was actually quite crowded that day. I did Kappa Sigma stacking to remove the crowd by taking dozens of exposures on a tripod over about 30 minutes or so of time. The crowd is constantly moving, so by stacking them with Kappa Sigma the only things that are retained are the things that don't move, ie, the orbiter and its surroundings.

Congrats man.

So...

What are the objects that sit in position looking like a star or planet and then suddenly start shooting off at incredible speeds and making impossible right angle turns?

Sometimes more than one will come out and they "intercept" one another and sort of zoom around the sky for a while.

All I can say is they look exactly like a star or planet, can sit still in position, and then can take off and cross the entire horizon within seconds (yes I know space does weird shit with light and it's harder gauging speed/distance from just eyesight alone especially considering we're contrasting their speed and distance by the back drop of space.

TIA.

If I find out anything I'll post it here, but this is Cape Canaveral, not Area 51/Groom Lake/Roswell etc.

Can You Decode This Alien Language..??

I SUCK MY OWN DICK

TY :)

cool

Like he's ever needed "more cred".

Why?

I’ve been a Shill for years. Welcome!

Yeah? You're good at self-fellatio. GTFO.

Congrats Astro.

It would have been way more fun for you to have trolled the nutters. But shilling is cool, too.

Oh man, if I started posting pictures that are obviously taken way closer than where the public can get without announcing how I did it, can you imagine the outcry? And once it came out that I now had a badge? My entire reputation here would have been destroyed, anytime anyone ever posted any of my old videos they would claim I had been a shill all along and post proof that I hid my access from them. Honesty is the best policy.

To look at a beautiful full moon up close, it really is amazing how many hits that thing has endured over the millennia. Has it ever been answered how in the world those craters are so damn shallow? I mean look at Meteor Crater in AZ as an example, you would think that without an atmosphere to slow anything down that the moon would have damn near been split into with some of those hits yet there it is, tons of shallow craters as if it really were made of some super alien surface. maybe it really is a huge titanium hollow ball, it even rang like a bell for nearly an hour.

In all seriousness, can you explain how rockets and thrusters work in space without oxygen? I think most deniers are usually caught up in that one facet of space travel. The idea of fire and thrusters working in a vacuum can boggle the mind. The idea of having thrust from nothing to push against is a head scratcher for most. It seems like the one huge bugaboo for ever using rockets or any type of combustion engines for space travel, at least any kind of distance travel.
