Fossil Fuels exist on other planets

don't be retarded dude. if you use math to create a theory, then use physical human observation to prove it, it's not a theory anymore. It's a theorem. It's not circular, it's as dead simple as it could possibly be

All I can tell you is that it's not "proof" or at the very least not to my standard.

My point was even with the increased detail and clarity you can’t know what you’re seeing. The only reason you know what you see when you look through a telescope here in Earth is because you’ve already encountered that object or similar in person and can make that connection. You’ve never encountered any of these heavenly bodies at a scale you can comprehend so you can’t properly identify them. It’s theoretical. If they told you that you were seeing something else you couldn’t argue otherwise based on the images themselves.

Yes this is dead right. I've built several astronomical telescopes including a 10" on a German Eq. mount and a nice truss tube 16" aperture one that took a year to build.

However I gave up looking when I saw a tear in sheet of paper that NASA projects all the objects onto. They've been doing that right back to prehistory. All the stars and celestial objects are and have always been just NASA projections. NASA built a time machine and went back in time so even Halley's comet in the Bayeux Tapestry is because of NASA.

That’s not what I said… I said that an image in a telescope doesn’t prove anything.

Do you believe it when you see an image of a Mack truck bearing down on you in your rear view mirror?

I would add that the images aren't static. You can see thing change in real time and over weeks and months. In the case of Jupiter you can watch shadow transits of its moons move in real time over the course of minutes and hours. You can watch the angles of Saturn change of years from edge on to fully open... The dust storms on mars and the polar caps. All sorts of things. Re: the moon from night to night you can see different features on the terminator of the shadows illuminated. It gives those features some depth. You can tell it's a sphere from the shadows and you can see valleys and mountains and their shadows change over time.

@Floyd Eye not sure why I wasted my breath explaining to these twits. It's like trying to prove to a moron that water is wet.

That's different, you can turn your neck and see the truck for yourself though at your age I suspect turning your neck isn't an option.

You can look at the planets directly with a refractor rather than a reflecting telescope too. Do you wear glasses... do you see the Mack truck coming through them? Oh shit you just used optics.

I'm not really convinced they believe that. I think they may just be fucking around.

I don't believe in wearing corrective lenses. But I suppose you're a four eyes looking geek.

I spend a lot of time looking through optics. Usually unmagnified optics with little green dots in the middle of them.

There is an old saying "believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see"

It's a good policy.

Well these blokes mostly believe in little green men rather than little green dots - so you are one up on them.

That saying is meant to be facetious not a literal guide to life. Can you imagine only believing half of what you see ? That'd lead to a complete shitshow.

You don't believe in anything other than speaking some inbred German Dialect in quaker country do you. Go off and squeal like pig mate.

Sometimes the magician isn't actually pulling the rabbit out of the hat or making the cigarette disappear Chet.

I believe in orthodoxy and the bible.

Sure enough. But when you see a corporation cock blow off a special IP gas main you probably better believe it. Otherwise you're in for a world of shit.
