>A Giant Spot Is Crossing The Sun And You Don't Even Need a Telescope to See It
>A sunspot four times the size of Earth is lined up with the Sun right now and it's so big that an astronomer said it could be seen with the naked eye – provided you've got the right equipment to observe it safely.
>"A giant sunspot is crossing the Sun's disk, and I could see it clearly with solar glasses," said Yeom, per spaceweather.com, adding: "Caution! You must use eclipse glasses or solar filters to protect your eyes."

So then NOT with the naked eye. WTF is wrong with "science" journalists???

Oh, of course.

it's impressive that the CIA is able to build megastructures between the sun and earth to fake sunspots. i have no idea why they do it.
>>
>>15462932
"the right equipment" can be as simple as a small mirror with masking tape covering all but a cm^2 and reflecting sunlight onto the side of a building. this is essentially a camera obscura.
this is how i observed the transit of venus in 2012.
>>
>>15462940
so by the very definition of the verb 'observing with the naked eye' you were NOT observing it with the naked eye, you were literally using a camera obscura to observe the shadow of something. Go back to Plato's cave for even considering to grant these fake journos who should be killed on sight a pass.

I think it's pretty clear to anyone who isn't on the spectrum that "naked eye" means "without optical magnification" in this context.

Telescope, binoculars, etc. It's so big you can see it.

>>15461668
if I see more posts like this I'm going to have to start a Solar physics/space weather general
>>
>>15466896
You should. Most soience troosters don't know anything about space weather and could use a general to keep track of new developments.
>>
>>15466906
>soience troosters
you sound exactly like one of the retards who don't know anything about space weather
>>
>>15467023
Fascinating.
>>
>>15467033
not particularly fascinating, no
I see tons of them here and on other boards and on other forums constantly
not really anything special at all, just another clueless moron among many
>>
>>15467034
You have a strong sense of conviction about some imaginary boogeyman. It's fascinating.
>>
>>15467038
>You have a strong sense of conviction about some imaginary boogeyman.
no, it's extremely readily apparent from the way you just phrased what I quoted that you're a clueless moron
you are not some special "boogeyman", but I'm sure you'd love to think so, retards like you typically do just that
but it's certainly not fascinating, it's very average and mediocre, subpar even
>>
>>15467041
You just seem so invested in this odd, persecutory narrative about someone who actually agreed with you.
>>
>>15467046
it's hilarious how you keep trying to desperately deflect from being called out
>someone who actually agreed with you
no, someone who uses phrasing like
>soience troosters
does absolutely not agree with my sentiment at all
in fact, people who use that kind of phrasing are the exact kind of retards that lead me to consider starting a Solar physics/space weather general
>>
>>15467047
All you're doing is peacocking some sort of mental illness. You're responding to a poster who displayed no other opinion except that a space weather general is a good idea to educate people.
>>
>>15467051
>All you're doing is peacocking some sort of mental illness.
no, by using the phrasing highlighted above that is what you are doing, not me
ironic projection is ironic
>no other opinion
except that by using that phrase you are very clearly expressing an opinion through subtext
and now you are getting called out for being the retard you are
serves you well
>>
>>15467054
>except that by using that phrase you are very clearly expressing an opinion through subtext
Please identify the opinion the poster you hate was expressing.
>>
>>15467056
>Please identify the opinion the poster you hate was expressing.
no, I'm not going to play your retarded games, I see straight through morons like you
you know very well what the subtext of using a phrase like
>soience troosters
is
and now you're getting called out on it and destroyed
serves you well for playing around with people who are a lot smarter than you
>>
>>15467057
You come across as a very mentally unwell person. First you make bold accusations about a poster, then when pressed you instantly break down and refuse to make any definite claims or present any evidence to support your nebulous allegations.
>>
>>15467059
>You come across as a very mentally unwell person.
more rich irony from someone who is getting called out on their own mental illness
>bold accusations
no, nothing bold about it at all, the subtext I'm calling out is clear
and now you're getting called out on it like the retard you are
>when pressed
morons like you can't press someone like me
I'm the one calling you out and destroying you
hilarious
>>
>>15467063
>the subtext I'm calling out is clear
If it's so clear, you should be able to say what it means.
>>
>>15467068
>If it's so clear, you should be able to say what it means.
again, not playing your retarded games
see: >>15467057
you're getting called out and destroyed
deal with it
>>
>>15467069
If you consider this a retarded game and the argument over, why do you continue to shout and scream into the void at an imagined enemy? It seems like you're experiencing some sort of narcissistic injury, or perhaps a psychotic meltdown.
>>
>>15467074
>you consider this a retarded game
that's exactly what it is when a moron like you uses phrasing like that, gets called out and savagely destroyed, and then tries to play dumb
serves you well
>the argument over
there never was any argument, just me calling you out and destroying you
>shout and scream
it's rather hilarious how you project what I can only assume is your own internal emotions onto others
the demeanor with which I totally destroy you and call out your bullshit could not possibly be more calm
>It seems like you're experiencing some sort of narcissistic injury, or perhaps a psychotic meltdown.
it's cute how someone getting called out on their mental illness tries to project it back onto others, and just escalates and doubles down on it more and more the more they get called out
it's so easy to sense just how hard you realize you've been called out and destroyed, and how hard you're seething because of it
>>
>>15467076
Your use of repetitive and self-validating language suggests you lack conviction in your beliefs and are trying to convince yourself of a victory against an imagined enemy.
>>
>>15467078
>Your use of repetitive and self-validating language
more hilariously ironic projections
>you lack conviction in your beliefs
nothing I've stated is a belief
>convince yourself
me calling out and destroying you is the diametric opposite of that
>>
>>15467080
Your overuse of the self-validating phrases "calling out" and "destroying" indicates that you want to convince yourself you have accomplished something while lacking confidence you actually have.
>>
>>15467081
>Your overuse of the self-validating phrases
and just like I called you out on above, you keep doubling down on your own hilariously ironic projections
priceless
>convince yourself
still the diametric opposite of what I'm doing: calling out your bullshit and totally destroying you
>you have accomplished something
judging by how hard you're seething, I'm accomplishing exactly what I'm intending, namely to call you out and destroy you
mission accomplished
>>
>>15467083
If you truly viewed your "mission" as "accomplished," why would you continue to reply in an angry and hostile manner? Would you not already be satisfied with your "accomplishment" in that case? Your posts suggest that you are irritated with the idea that you are unable to respond to basic questions about your imagined enemy, and as a result you overcompensate by lashing out repeatedly without touching the root cause.
>>
>>15467088
>If
there's no "if" here at all, it's plain as day
>why would you continue to reply in an angry and hostile manner
it's truly amusing how you keep projecting your own internal emotions onto others
meanwhile I keep calling you out and destroying you in the calmest manner imaginable
you must be absolutely seething and boiling with rage inside from not getting away with it like you're used to
probably something deeply psychological from your childhood there that you should get checked out, but I'm definitely not going to delve into that, calling you out and destroying you is sufficient here
>Would you not already be satisfied with your "accomplishment" in that case?
the more you keep seething, the harder I can keep calling you out
having accomplished what I intended does not mean I cannot achieve it even better as long as you keep inviting me to do so by continuing to seethe about getting called out
>>
>>15467092
I would be obliged if you could define the ideology you believe the original comment (this one >>15466906, in case you need a link) is attempting to promote.
>>
>>15467097
still not playing your retarded games
see: >>15467057
when you're a retard and openly express that you are, you get called out
now deal with it more and seethe less
>>
>>15467098
You have provided no proof that OP's original comment indicated his mental state or level of IQ by any measure. In fact it is a commonplace statement on this board used my the majority of anons.
>>
>>15467102
>OP's original comment indicated his mental state or level of IQ by any measure
first of all, what OP wrote is something entirely different from the retarded phrasing you used and have gotten called out and totally destroyed on
OP can simply be excused as being an ignorant retard who won't even take 5 minutes of their time to learn basic space weather
you, on the other hand, betray a much more deep-rooted mental illness, and now you're getting called out on it, something you're clearly not used to, causing you to seethe extremely hard about it
>>
>>15467104
Do you have a diagnosis for OP's (>>15466906) comment? What ideology does he believe in which you find objectionable? Is he "anti-science?" or is there a specific theory you believe he espouses that you find issue with?
>>
>>15467107
that's not OP, you dumb retard
fucking hell, it sure smells like summer in here
>What ideology does he believe in which you find objectionable?
still not playing your games
see: >>15467057
you fucked around and now you found out
you didn't expect to get savagely called out and destroyed, but you did
try to seethe less and deal with it
>>
>>15467111
Your use of profanity indicates serious emotional distress, but my post was laid out very rationally. Are you alright?
>>
>>15467112
>indicates serious emotional distress
it really is hilarious how you're not just projecting, but even when it's pointed out to you you just keep doing it over and over again, doubling and tripling down on it
it's like a toddler getting caught with their hand in the cookie jar trying to invent fantastic tales about dragons and unicorns to get out of it
in one sense it's cute, like a toddler throwing a tantrum, but in another it's of course quite pathetic and pitiable that you are this unable to cope with your own internal rage just because someone like me doesn't back down and instead calls you out and totally destroys you
>>
anyway, I've just finished brushing my teeth, time to sleep soundly knowing yet another retard has been thoroughly called out and is seething at not getting away with what they're used to
closing this tab immediately upon posting this, and not reopening this thread ever, so I won't ever see a single more word of your retarded seething
keep raging and seething about getting called out all you like into empty air, though, I'm sure you could use the venting
thinking about the fact that I won't ever read any of it pleases me greatly, and will in fact make me sleep even more soundly
status: called out and destroyed
mission accomplished
