I am new to astronomy, and I have been noticing how expensive large glass mirrors for reflector telescopes can get. I am just curious why a quality mirror can't just be cast or stamped out of say acrylic or polycarbonate or some other cheap plastic, then be polished and coated? Is there some property of plastic that makes it less suitable for a telescope mirror?

Why can't we point the hubble space telescope at the moon and take pictures of the things we left there to prove we were there once and for all?

Well, i don't even know if there's evidence that life started on earth but there probably isn't any saying otherwise.

...with a helium core that is not hot enough to start fusion yet was rising in luminosity but falling in temperature, what could be going on with that star??

why do you think this is? is it for the benefit of all mankind or are they building some thing up there that will alllow them to control every one down here on the planet? or are they hoping to find a planet that will support human life, so they can finally escape from us, bearing in mind that only people with more than $10,000,000 dollars will be allowed to live there?
is this what their really up to? because lets face it these people, the haves and the have mores never do any thing for any one but them selves ,unless of course they are absolutely forced too?
you might say im a little sceptical about there motives.

I do. I think it's pretty arrogant to think that we are the only intelligent life form in the universe.

Do we have to wait until New Horizons probe gets there or is there a reasonable photo of this dwarf planet already? I've never seen one!
