either way, i'm no expert on the subject but one shouldn't really concern himself with theoretical scientists

smug cunts

This is all too far away and too low res to comment on

you can say theoretical physicists are just writing a secular Talmud

Its like those articles about finding planets around other stars!

ikr

All we really know. Is that there is something massive as fuck at the center of our galaxy, that we can't see.

And whats the evidence?
Well, the star kinda blinks at regularish intervals

and le epic science people go <:soy:515271052071534592>

Mathematically we know something is there.

I'll say that observing the wobble of a star, the period of its blinking and the degree to which it does so can indicate the presence of large planets

I see nothing wrong with that

Can indicate

I have a problem with "artist's renditions" depicting what that planet looks like

Its really too far away to tell

And Dasick, they estimate the size of exoplanets by monitoring light output over years. It's not really something we can know for sure because they are ao far away and the light difference is so little. But once you see a large about of data, stars dimming at very exact intervals... you can infer that there is something there.

niggas really be out here guessing what a planet looks like when we can't even precisely pin down its diameter, mass, or orbit

Thats what I said Worf

they determine it's composition based on the hue of the reflection

You said the stars blink. That implies it blocks out all light

since different atmospheres give away different hues

gotta remember that we sit on a really shitty vantage point in our galaxy, and we only have the one

It doesn't, it dims very very very slightly.

we can't see much from here

I really don't like the 'epic space science' people

that shit is the most irritating

"space big yo"

then again I don't like anyone

Yes, space is big. It's also fascinating. But people put far too much stock in science that we can't physically prove.

there's a tasteful way to engage with space

and then there are people who run around proclaiming shit they heard once as absolute fact

yes, STEM

yEaH dUdE, jUsT lIkE iN iNtErStElLaR!

I thought interstellar was a decent movie

It was

I didn't say it wasn't

but it has a really retarded fanbase

I didn't know it had a fanbase at all

at least a group of idolizers

I thought the "fanbase" consisted of a few dudes on 4chan and reddit who like to put the music over funny shit

It's a well done movie
