A.I. may be screwing with us...

I’ve known many astrophysicists, and can see them training/indoctrinating the A.I. engines to make sure those grants keep on coming...

The Kuiper Belt Objects that we know about (Pluto being one) represent just the tip of the tip of the tip of the iceberg. And beyond that is the Oort cloud which likely contains far more objects. And somewhere out there planet 9 waits to be discovered, or so they think.

Excellent point! What you described is likely rather easy to do if you can influence how the software is programmed. Why would they NOT make an effort to bias tbe results in their own material favor? Who’s going to spill the beans? No one, provided they get paid enough for keeping tbeir mouths shut.

This is SO timely for me and my son. We went on an excellent guided tour of the Griffith Observatory in Griffith Park, Los Angeles today and the tour guide was talking about meteorites. We got to hold a very heavy iron / nickel meteorite found in Arizona!

The Earth will probably get a 'shotgun blast' of related space debris in our lifetimes, probably over water (since most of the surface of the Earth is water), and hopefully not too serious.

When you think about it, when it comes to science we take the vast majority of what we are told as fact with no real way of testing the data ourselves.

I don’t believe the word these people say. We get fuzzy pictures of Bigfoot and fuzzy pictures of U. F. O. S. yet can see galaxies billions of miles away.

That is how I used to feel about scientific proof. and then Covid happened, and then Trans surgery on middle schoolers happened after that.

I remember that after Clyde Tombaugh discovered Pluto, he spent years looking at many more glass plates, with millions of star images, in an effort to find any more planets that may lie on the edge of our solar system. Imagine what he could have done if he had AI to help!
