True.  Disney never did do boffo box office with the film as they had hoped.  ?

Wasnt it in the Disney Studios were they shot all the phony moon landings ?

 

This video looks like CGI as well.

This could be an analogy for Sunday...the BILLS/New Era Stadium being the Black Hole of the AFC East.

 

Bills fandom is more like the black hole of Calcutta

TESS is one of the Satellites built at my work location.  

 

 

Burger King builds satellites now?  

 

Probably taste better than their fries...

I think it was just an animation derived from the data.

So how do they calculate the rarity anyway?  If this satellite has only been in place for a few years, and it already saw one example of this kind of event in one particular view direction, doesn't it make you question if the calculated rate of occurrence is way off the mark?

 

Or do we have enough information about all star and black hole locations, trajectories and movement speeds to reliably make the kind of calculations that lead to the "rarity" prediction?

Knowing the approximate frequency of supernovae and black hole creation, astronomers can estimate the number of black holes in a galaxy.  Then, knowing stellar densities and relative motions within galaxies, they can calculate the frequency of star-black hole interactions at the bulk limit.

 

It also helps that, in astronomy, "accuracy" is defined as "within a factor of 10 either way."  Which I always thought made the lab work easier...

The video is a demonstration to help people understand the science. It’s obviously not the actual footage. I just can’t deal with science haters. You wouldn’t be typing on your phone or computer without scientists like the ones you mock.

I know, right?  All these people pretending the moon landing happened, when there really isn't any moon.  WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!

Here's what it actually looks like to astronomers:

Then big foot bashers must put you over the edge.
