Nothing wrong in asking questions but you do need to read the source material. It's based on the radio emissions back to Earth. The changes in the Doppler signature demonstrates that mascons exist within this 'moonlet', along with apparent voids.
"Because sound in space is a no go, light waves wouldn't make much sense , and radio waves which are basically electro magnetic waves could and probably would react differently when "shocking" with materials with properties that we may not know or understand yet."
The Doppler measurement is a passive one and there is no "shocking" involved.
'How can be so sure that the Phobos is hollow when he doesn't really know the true composition of it's interior and fully understands who such composite works and behaves in space?
What if it's interior is composed of a material that changes electro magnetic waves in way that we don't know yet?'
Your speculation is not sensible in believing that the composition of Phobos is beyond our ken. If it were it would argue more strongly that it IS not of natural manufacture and that it IS artificial.
"I would say that basing your argument over reflectance data from a material composition that you don't really know about or fully understand in it's context is way too much of guess work in my opinion.
anyway... I'll try to read the whole thing tomorrow."
Normally commentary and opinions are best made after one is familiar with the material. Stating that you don't know the material invalidates your entire post.

Enjoy.
Relic Ancient Alien bases,..... so what else is new? the universe is full of ancient civilizations. Old hat, been there ...done that. You want to make contact...get compassion psychic...the benevolent aliens communicate on that wavelength.

Richard we know you are working feverishly to get the Phobos paper out there, but can you at least let us know that you are still ok and not stuffed inside a lead lined trunk somewhere in a basement celler of Area51.
Blue Brother Richard C2C Hoagland must be waiting for Easter as a ritualistic date on which to counter with his Masonic Egyptian mythology about Phobos.

Thing is, radar reflectivity isn't determined solely by material composition but also by shape. Is it so surprising that experimental technology deployed in an alien environment should yield a surprising result? Should we immediately jump to the wildest conclusion?
show me a natural material causing readings like that.
No, that would only be true if it were the case that there are no suprising things left to find in nature. Nor is it the case that, because something is anomalous, it is artificial. If I sort through a basket of apples & find something that isn't an apple, that in no way indicates that it is an orange, or, more to the point, an apple pie. It is an anomaly that bears further inspection.

Perhaps so, but we have no idea how much force volcanos on other planets may be able to release. Worth noting that Olympus Mons is the largest volcano in the known solar system also. Anyway, I didn't post this hypothesis because I believe it, but merely to show that we needn't jump to wild conclusions. We need more data.
energies and manipulations which a Stage II civilization would find daunting
Why on a site promoting conspiracy and alien contact
is there so much resistance
to thinking this 'moonlet ' is artificial?
