Do you feel as if your purchase of a telescope was worth it? Do you thoroughly enjoy it and use it as much as you anticipated?
I really really enjoy space and astronomy, and know more about the sky than most... I just wanna be assured that spending this amount of money is gonna be worthwhile, ya know?

With all this talk of water once being on Mars, I've recently being wondering where the free radical oxygen(s) to form it came from in the first place,
Maybe I'm wrong but I always though oxygen was so reactive the only way for it to exist in any real quantity was to be continually produced, e.g photosynthesis.
So if water existed on Mars there must have been a substantial amount of oxygen in free radical form, where could it have originated from?

Please correct me if my logic is flawed.

It is believed to be at an altitude of about 200 miles, but when first seen by an observer,, how far away over a particular spot on earth would it be passing over away from the observer. If seen lets say from LA would it be over SF ?

Just curious. Why did the US invested in the development of the shuttle? For that matter, 4 shuttles? What did they bring? In fact, it seemed during the 80s, a lot of attention have devoted to the shuttle development and other space programs were scaled back. Shouldn't they have continued their moon missions, or send ship to other planets? Why did they devote their time only to the shuttle?

In fact, the irony is that, the shuttle is now on the verge of retirement!

I read somewhere that black holes have such strong gravity that it even "sucks" in light, thats why it's called a black hole, and therefore they are basically invisible. So if we can't see them and obviously can't go near them, how did scientists find them or know about how they work.

when I say 'space'. I include all galaxies, etc...
Since we know space is finite - think of all of 'space' as a bubble.
What kind of demension/plane of existence, etc.. do you think is beyond the "bubble" we call space?
When I was a teenager, I took LSD and had it all figured out...I forgot all about it when I came down.

300,000 Kilometers per second may seem fast but vs. the infinity scape of the universe it's like driving in the slow-lane with the brakes on. So should future Man even bother expending its greatest minds and greatest riches to achieve it? What benefits would light speed yeild humanity short of offering a one hour tour of the solar system?

ok....so youve got your fabric of space imagined in your head......now place a dense star on it (the fabric becoes indented now) now ......now place an "earth on it".....now put the earth in an orbit (any direction).....so youve got your picture now right?

good......now why does the earth stay there and not bounce out.....it is as though the earth is falling towards the sun on the inclined plane but is stable because it is rotating in its orbit (Centrifugal force)

i think it stays there because the fabric of space time is moving up , therefore pushing down on the earth...) (newtons third law of motion)..

i hope you can help me with this please)


please
