Strictly speaking this means that mathematicians have been unable to find a way to accurately pinpoint a location in three-dimensional space and are always forced to incorporate cumbersome correcting calculations for spacecraft once they begin to approach their destinations.


Last I checked mathematicians have no difficulty making sure a Hellfire missile finds its destination, e.g. the turban of an Al Qaeda operative in Afghanistan. To me this seems like an astonishing ability to "accurately pinpoint a location in three-dimensional space". And don't get me started on spacecraft, because that's just amazing -- after years of travel, some spacecraft are directed to fly around a few planets and then directed to Mercury for a precise hit, traveling billions and billions of miles.

The calculations may indeed be cumbersome, especially for that ignoramus Pond, but they work very well. By contrast, he can offer nothing at all except for lots of hand waving and making absolutely empty claims.

...and at least to not degenerate into a bunch of babbling idiots. When Pond shows a piece of math that works (such as in reducing resistivity of a wire), then we'll take a look. Until then, it's all words, words, words and no substance.

In second reading, this seems to be a non sequitur. Pond, in his stupidity, proclaimed that humans have tremendous difficulties navigating spacecraft and comparable objects in 3D. That is sheer, cold, unadulterated nonsense, and I feel compassion for anybody who's reading such bullsh!t and puts even a modicum of trust or interest into it. Speaking of which, you, Mary, had no idea about the actual capacity of modern engineering, to move massive objects around, as was evidenced in this thread a month or two ago. Pond appears to be suffering from the same kind of ignorance, only applied to space and aeronautics.

How so? Wind is observable and measurable.

lol... that was my point, Spiratio. We can't "see" wind, but we know that it's there and are able to measure it's effect. The same as the elusive "dark matter" that we can't "see." In time we'll know more, but for now, in this way, it's comparable to wind, gravity, and other "mysteries" that puzzled scientists/theorists of old.


No, i was pointing out that wind is measurable as well as observable. Dark matter is observable but not measurable...in both instances its known that the phenomena exist... so how does saying "that's like saying wind does't exist" prove any point I'm sorry but your logic baffles me.


Wow, I watch your responses on these threads. You looooooove to argue. You absolutely can not stand it if someone tells you that you are wrong, can you?

On topic? Yes, you can measure dark matter. We've spent millions doing it even. You're not only disagreeing with me on this, you're disagreeing with the entire modern science community if you take the time to investigate the issue. I wish you luck.


Sorry but I think you have the wrong end of the stick, offering my honesty that I don't understand your logic is not an argument, I dislike arguing,,, that's why my responses are either a. informative or b. questions. Any thing else is pointless imo in context of my reason for posting, arguing is pointless its a waste of time.

Regarding dark matter you cannot actually measure the essence of it... I know that there have been something along the line of time-lapsed photos of the divergence of galaxies to measure its estimated speed of propagation in expansion of the cosmos, but there are no devices to measure it as a field. It's beyond our tangible processors.
Using the timelaps method is like measure the speed of a car by detecting the air moving around it not actually using a device that clocks the visualy captured momentum of th eobjective force/thing

Whether anyone disagrees with my posts or not is none of my business and insignificant to my emotional state, but if anyone offers notions that aren't very well thought out or misleading (whether intended or not) to invite/instigate argument then I'll point it out if I feel that its necessary so others can get a better view of what's being implied.

Do I need your permission to use that filename? If I can't have it, I think I'll just call it "everything's fractal.jpg", I don't think that's copyrighted yet.

Are you serious saying that time-lapse videos can measure evolution of "diversion of galaxies" as observed here on Earth? I wish I had kind words for this, but are you nuts?


It's beyond our tangible processors.


Please define "processors" as best you can, and then proceed to rigorously define "tangible processors".

One of our ATS members is an amateur astrophotographer and has made some interesting time-lapse photography here, but it's related to a satellite, not to galaxies:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

The satellite is so faint that long shutter times are necessary to see it and the resulting video has some time compression and interesting "light effects" from brighter objects.

It's nice to see some ATS members have talents other than finding sources of complete BS and then promoting them.

The above post is not a conclusion of my own experiments or opinion...it is a conclusion of what scientists have inferred of which I came across through researching websites that cite scientific organisations. Directing incredulity at me is not in context.

Look at the link - My words were allegorical when I said timelaps-like

edit: my exact words were "along the line of time-lapsed photos". Notice this does not infer that I am stating that thats exactally what their method is, just that its similar to time-lapse photography, same as as my sentence above this interjected "edit". Sure it may be a different wording to my original words but they imply the same thing as my original intention. This is another example of how boxed in adherents like yourself are, that you read others words as you want to read them (so as to argue) and not as how the words are truly intended...which can be understood by anyone who has the ability to reason outside of the confines of one specific perspective [edit]

Now of coarse what we see of galaxies from the huble cannot tell us the content of the current dark matter/energy and light matter energy ratio, only what it was in the past. Which is why it is a waste of time to try and estimate it, they'l never have relative measurement to the present moment.

I looked at your link...and you said you're not promoting a religious point of view, but you realize the views of the authors posting on that site would like us to believe the Earth is 6000 years old? Regardless of your religion, don't you think that impacts the source's credibility?

To see a specific credibility problem with your source, look at the source I posted on this post in page 183, which debunks the modified theory of gravity your creationist source is apparently trying to promote:

www.abovetopsecret.com...
A direct empirical proof of the existence of dark matter

An 8-sigma significance spatial offset of the center of the total mass from the center of the baryonic mass peaks cannot be explained with an alteration of the gravitational force law, and thus proves that the majority of the matter in the system is unseen
Prior to this paper, modified gravity models might have had some possibilities, but I've seen no modified gravity models which can explain this result.

See above. The Sun we observe is 8 minutes old, are you saying it's pointless studying it?

I'm not saying the data inst useful in understanding the wider picture (pun not intended), but its pointless in the context of the original endeavour, to measure dark energy and matter as a means to conclude implications for the present..

Your allegories are also pointless.

Also you claim to have compassion for people who have been "duped' by those like Pond however your current avatar is counter productive If you want people to take you seriously

How do you define the present? Everything we see is in the past. Some things happened further in the past than others.

If you use your argument that astronomical observations are in the past and don't affect the present, then why are you citing sources which mention them at all? You don't have any astronomical data in the present, right?

Frankly you're not making much sense by quoting sources which are based on astronomical observations, and then stating that they are irrelevant to the present.

These are not allegories. When I'm saying that we see the Sun the way it was 8 minutes ago, this is simple truth. For more stupid people, this may be insurmountable.

You'll find this link helpful when articulating their main problem...

Scotoma


The term scotoma is also used metaphorically in psychology to refer to an individual's inability to perceive personality traits in themselves that are obvious to others.

Well well... Why don't you expound on wireless communication for us. How do cell phone towers process voice and data? Trust me, the question relates to reality and how we experience time.

So this is the way you explain why you're linking to sources citing astronomical observations on the one hand, and then claiming astronomical observations are irrelevant on the other hand because they show past rather than present events?

In other words, is this refusal to address the issue a tacit admission on your part that in fact you're not making any sense? Because if it's something other than that, you really should address the issue rather than accusing me of getting paid to write here.

Besides, the paying jobs are in the political forums, not in the skunkworks section
