OK. About 15. Why is this relevant to the fact that your claim was refuted? -- Bob C. "Evidence confirming an observation is evidence that the observation is wrong." - McNameless |

There are published amateur images of our solar illuminated moon and that of the same FOV having Jupiter, Saturn, Mars and of course Venus that's terribly bright (better than 2x the albedo of Earth). There are even a few NASA published images that proves how physically dark our moon is in relation to other planets, including the darkest portions of Earth that are actually brighter than our moon, such as our ocean albedo records as brighter than our moon. When Messenger using the ultimate best of any camera and mirror optics imaged Earth from Venus, our large enough moon was essentially invisible (clearly as dark or darker than coal) because it was obviously darker than any albedo portion of Earth. Good grief you are a dumb one, and obviously dumbfounded to boot. ~ Brad Guth Brad_Guth Brad.Guth BradGuth BG |

And the fact that this was refuted several times in this thread, *with references*, means nothing to you? OK. Perhaps, although refusing to accept unsupported claims as fact seems to point the other way; when I'm asked for cites I provide them, or say why I can't. And the "dumbfounded" one is the one who makes no attempt to provide cites to the claims he makes: "Upon being asked to support his claims, the conspiracy theorist was dumbfounded and wouldn't, or more likely couldn't, reply other than by making additional unsupported assertions." Sound familiar? It should. -- Bob C. "Evidence confirming an observation is evidence that the observation is wrong." - McNameless |
