yet there was a continuous feed from the moon without a time lag. correct?

2019-09-28 05:13:32 UTC  

It’s bound to have some minutia about it depending on how you want to communicate

2019-09-28 05:14:40 UTC  

Pulling up the moon recording times it’s around 2 second delay with direct communication with a dedicated tower

2019-09-28 05:14:54 UTC  

why is it, that people say that you can see satelites from earth at night, and that they look like stars, yet from iss you should see thousands of blindingly bright shining craft, yet you see none?

2019-09-28 05:16:22 UTC  

Depends, most of them would look small, depending on their orbits, some orbit power my kilometers or higher, at very high velocities, meters per second. I haven’t stopped in long enough to really look for it but logically that would be my answer using common sense

2019-09-28 05:16:53 UTC  

The iss itself orbits in 90 minutes

2019-09-28 05:17:29 UTC  

theyd be reflecting the suns light and be blindingly bright, and theres thousands of them, in other words, you couldnt miss them, yet theyre oddly missing from iss footage

2019-09-28 05:18:10 UTC  

you can see them from the ground appearing to look like stars right?

2019-09-28 05:18:21 UTC  

doesnt add up, does it?

2019-09-28 05:20:45 UTC  

I mean you can see satalites

2019-09-28 05:20:49 UTC  

In iss feeds a lot of times

2019-09-28 05:21:14 UTC  

did you know, that communications and internet are handled by giant undersea fiber optic cables that stretch along the ocean floors between continents?

2019-09-28 05:21:18 UTC  

They are as I said small in comparison to the observed earth and traveling very quickly (meters per second)

2019-09-28 05:22:00 UTC  

if you saw satelites in orbit, theyd be blindingly bright, if youre being consistent, since they look like stars from the ground

2019-09-28 05:22:10 UTC  

I don’t even want to get into the logistics of how ridiculously expensive, improbable that would be compared to just having space flight. No they wouldn’t lol

2019-09-28 05:22:33 UTC  

They aren’t polished diamonds why would they be as bright as a burning ball of plasma

2019-09-28 05:22:40 UTC  

so you understand your reasoning is inconsistent

2019-09-28 05:23:03 UTC  

How is anything I said inconsistent

2019-09-28 05:23:19 UTC  

I’ve been consistent in my information and my reasoning

2019-09-28 05:23:32 UTC  

craft with reflective surfaces reflecting the suns light bright enough to look like stars from the earths surface, yet theyre not from rbit

2019-09-28 05:23:45 UTC  

inconsistent

2019-09-28 05:24:04 UTC  

I never said they were as bright as stars

2019-09-28 05:24:15 UTC  

and the inconsistency is glaringly obvious

2019-09-28 05:24:17 UTC  

I simply said you could spot them from the surface with the aid of tools

2019-09-28 05:24:27 UTC  

they look like stars from earths surface

2019-09-28 05:24:36 UTC  

Not really

2019-09-28 05:24:39 UTC  

They are not as bright

2019-09-28 05:25:00 UTC  

really? ive been told that so many times ive lost count

2019-09-28 05:25:05 UTC  

They look like a satalites <:lul:484994724118134784>

2019-09-28 05:25:11 UTC  

cute

2019-09-28 05:25:41 UTC  

I mean if you really doubt you can travel to a location where the iss will orbit over and take your telescope and search for it but No one could be bothered to I guess

2019-09-28 05:25:59 UTC  

At least here

2019-09-28 05:26:25 UTC  

I’ve done it myself because I love astronomy as part of my middle school learning

2019-09-28 05:27:32 UTC  

so, in addition to that, the time lag between the moon was less than the time lag from the iss, if i remember correctly

2019-09-28 05:27:48 UTC  

Iss is a traveling satalites that orbits earth in 90 minutes

2019-09-28 05:28:01 UTC  

It’s much harder to track then a stationary target on the moon

2019-09-28 05:28:06 UTC  

That orbits in 24 hours

2019-09-28 05:28:27 UTC  

that means nothing in this

2019-09-28 05:28:32 UTC  

Radio waves travel extremely fast, light speed so the lag is milliseconds in travel time

2019-09-28 05:28:34 UTC  

It does

2019-09-28 05:28:35 UTC  

Lol
