I had to laugh at this question. It's so true.
That's hot! (Of course, he touches it.)
It's snowing! (Of course, he runs to look.)
I don't think it's got anything to do with your credibility, I just think guys are a "let ME see!" gender.
Good question!

medical American had an editorial in this very difficulty. Why can we trust certain resources and by no skill others? They concept it did not a lot ought to do with the wide-spread of the ebook besides the undeniable fact that the nature of the questions and the reliability and testability of the solutions. In different phrases, once you're experienced in technology, you're all about discerning truth from nonsense. So certain arguments make sense in the experience that they are nicely supported through info and others do only not. Take the examples. i do not imagine there are billions of stars because a guy suggested so. Or a very major and smart guy suggested it. Or that a good number of extremely smart men suggested it. None of that concerns. All that concerns is "is the argument sound?" at the same time as someone makes an estimate of ways many stars there are, they ought to have a reason behind the estimate. If someone suggested "i imagine there's one billion stars and the reason being I regarded obtainable and were given a feeling there's one billion" -- that would no longer be a good reason to trust it! on the different hand, if someone defined the technique they used to map the sky and divide the sky into coordinate bins of favourite length, and then calculated what number bins there have been and counted what number stars in representative bins, and got here up with assorted about one billion stars -- that would "make sense" to a scientist and be achieveable. (And a scientist would also favor to entice close the learn become finished reliably, and that somebody else did the learn and got here up with an same numbers and different issues previously something turns into "an widely used concept") on the different hand, the moist paint signal is basically only a guy putting forward "the paint is moist." yet he's actual no longer there to assert it, all all of us understand is that, presuming the guy become honest, is that at a at the same time as in the previous, the paint become moist. So is it moist now? Who knows? become the signal put up 3 weeks in the past and someone forgot it? Or, is the paint extremely moist?

I thought there were 100 billion stars in each galaxy and 100 billion galaxies? so that makes about 10 000 000 000 000 000 stars in the universe, which is definetly more than 400 billion.

because it's easier to believe if you can see it with your own two eyes, or touch it yourself, but since stars cannot be touched or counted by your average human, so he'll have to take that for the truth, even if he's not really sure
