I just wonder who thought to put inferred imaging to see what we couldn’t with our normal telescopes?? It was a while ago yet I feel like it was yesterday
Curious about the dark mass that appears to be emerging from behind Saturn in that one picture, like another planet perhaps? The spherical shape and apparent size suggest another planetoid or celestial body relatively close to Saturn, but it's hard to trust or believe ANYTHING we see and hear on here with the advent of AI.
Last week everyone was talking about the eclipse. We were cautioned not to stare directly at it without special glasses. I thought about Thales of Miletus who in 585 BC predicted an eclipse. But while that was quite something there is on record an even greater prediction in the Old Testament. In Amos 8:9 where the prophet predicted the darkness that covered the earth when Christ hung on the cross. It reads, "And in that day declares the Lord God I will make the sun go down at noon and will darken the earth in the daytime." Now read "At noon, darkness fell across the whole land until three o’clock." [Mark 15:33] That eclipses our eclipse doesn't it? And look, leading secular historians around at that time admitted to what happened when Jesus died and the sun as it were, left the sky. We sing the following hymn by Isaac Watts in church-- Well might the sun in darkness hide And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker died For man the creature’s sin.
