How anybody can delude themselves with the amount of scientific facts about a universe so huge, into dwelling on superstition is astounding.

I think about freaky science facts, like gravity affecting time. The power of gravity in a black hole, or the size of a red giant, and that gives me a sense of awe without the bullshit fantasy.

I too get tired of arguing text of any comic book. Our species was around long before our modern myths and the universe will be around long after our species goes extinct and there will be no record of our existence. We are a blip, a mere flicker. Life is what it is and both its positive and negitives need no narcissistic delusions to explain it.

Science continues to kill superstition and the fans of such hate the curtain being pulled back exposing their mortal Oz which is nothing more than their own imaginations.

OooooH! I hadn't heard of the Event Horizon Telescope before! Do you think it is all related?? I know that here in Western Australia everyone is congratulating themselves but really we are just a small part as there is also Africa and New Zealand involved.

I don't think so. I did a little poking around and your new array doesn't seem to be involved. It could be because the Event Horizon project is trying to capture an event coming up sometime in the near future (actually 27,000 years ago) with the Milky Way's super massive black hole and they didn't think it would be ready in time. I don't know though.

My one and only trip down under was a working trip to the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex. It's older but impressive if you're into that kind of stuff.

I thought that was G-C?

Brindabella?? That is old!

Still, interesting that so much is being used to expand our understanding of the universe ... bookmarked the website you offered and will look at it in depth later. Fascinating stuff and much more interesting than who is burning what effigy or flag!!
