    Self Made Telescope

    Perfect! I can create myself a telescope and also prove that it doesn't take an engineer to do it. Yes, I will need an understanding as to what has to be understood. Anyone can do anything if they have the motivation. This is the stuff skills are made of.

    I'm an astronomer and I think aliens may be out there — but UFO sightings aren't persuasive

    ...And if that doesn't work fast enough there's always a polar vortex available to help thin the herd.

    Self Made Telescope

    I started playing around virtually to get an idea of size. Is the focal point measured from the face of the mirror surface? I would like to make this model as accurate as possible so it'd be more fun lol. I also want to fully understand what I'm doing and why.

    Live on Mars

    I believe that Mars was the most recent planet Humans destroyed and needs much more time to recover before we do it again. It is my personal opinion that we should spend our resources fixing this planet before it's destroyed too, again. Our Earth is the last place to flourish in this solar system.

    Strange object on the far side of Moon, What do you make of it?

    We will probably never know :confounded: I believe the imagery to be data from July of 2013. It appears to be covered over currently.

    I'm an astronomer and I think aliens may be out there — but UFO sightings aren't persuasive

    The bit of UFO sighting info that did it for me was when I heard about someone figured out that many were displaying constellation patterns in their flight patterns. After my own investigating on many photos etc.. Yeah, wow. Even sightings years apart show similarities. How many times years...

    Self Made Telescope

    Sweet! I've been researching Dobsons. I like the concrete tube form idea. I have a cnc router too so I'm on for adventure :D Do you have anything on ebay? I'm going to attempt 10". Because a 5 gal. bucket would make a great dew shield. lol

    Strange object on the far side of Moon, What do you make of it?

    It said ACCEPTED after I clicked submit target request. If they add data for that area will I get an email? Anyone have any experience with this?

    Strange object on the far side of Moon, What do you make of it?

    I'm going to guess that this is either already known or I'm seeing something that others do not.

    Self Made Telescope

    Since currently it's difficult to get a deal on a telescope I think I'm going to make one. I know it won't be easy but if it was done in 1600's then it shouldn't be too bad. I was looking at mirrors on ebay. Wow! but out of budget...

    Impact patterns on Moon

    I would think that if an object broke apart then to leave marks that close to each other, the distance it broke wouldn't be too far from where it impacted.

    Impact patterns on Moon

    I'd call them authentic since I provided links to the source data at LROC. All the info I find on these has 3rd grade level description. While all these causes seem reasonable and likely, what strikes me is .. 1. They are not in our view from earth. 2. Close to same size impact. 3. Alignment...

    How to debate a flat-Earther

    Okay, lol. Best way to debate a flat earther is to 1st, don't make eye contact. Avoid them all together and go the opposite direction. It's like trying to teach common sense. It must be some kind of Truman filter. It makes everything we see out in space round but I'm sure they are flat too...
