Zoe Phin 0 #353 March 2, 2021 (edited) olof, VLT may be 4 normal telescopes, but not VLT/Sphere or VLT/NaCo. Can't you read? Here's a clue: When you have THAT many authors, you're looking at COLLUSION, not science. You're being sold something. This pattern has been noted by historian scientists who study scientists, science organizations, etc. Please answer this, if you can, how fast must a planet form so that the heat from gravitational collapse is not lost? Do you know? Edited March 2, 2021 by Zoe Phin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SPHERE and NaCo are instruments attached to the VLT. If you attach a camera to a normal telescope, it doesn't suddenly turn it into a radio telescope. 7 minutes ago, Zoe Phin said: You're being sold something. Yeah, your crackpot page.

Zoe Phin 0 #356 March 2, 2021 (edited) A normal telescope has a camera attached. The original VLT had cameras. We had this technology for 100 years. But now we need "special" cameras to see. The old cameras could see billions of light years away, but for some reason can't see things 370 light years away. Weird. Why do you think that is?

The original VLT had digital cameras attached. (link: https://www.eso.org/sci/facilities/paranal/instruments/fors.html ) Do you mean film cameras? (I presume from the 100 year reference) Film cameras have never been on the VLT. Never ever. They put digital cameras in 1998 when it was built, and digital cameras kept improving so they upgraded them. Nice try at attempting a new conspiracy theory, any evidence of that gravitational capture coming anytime soon?

I'm not going to answer your question until you post some proof of your gravitational capture theory. Deal? I've only been asking in the past dozen posts, why are you avoiding it? Oh, it's because you have no answer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You agree that they're protoplanets right? I've provided lots, you've provided NO CITATIONS whatsoever. Nice try - they're not protoplanets, despite you trying to hide the image source. They're a tri-star system forming: https://astronomynow.com/2016/10/28/alma-witnesses-the-birth-of-a-triple-star-system/ Taken by RADIO array ALMA, by the way, which you already think just makes computer-generated images PS. the same ALMA that imaged the ring around PDS 70 which demolished your argument PPS. by the way if you say multiple star systems are by gravitational capture - this is actually evidence OPPOSITE to your argument triple stars forming together!
