Yep, flatearthers are pissed 😂

Not sure what you mean, this is just 300km high just 3-4 times higher than Everest, before they wander up to their position.

Yes. They have a new design that stays attached to the stage. Less debries staying in orbit as it deorbits with the second stage.

Your mom.

I agree with you, it proves to be a challenge at times and most astronomers don’t like all these shinny new toys in the sky, but being an astrophotographer, I know that this is best for mankind as we know it. Especially since our kids kids and their grandchildren will be living in a time of Galactic Wars, Air Superiority and Tech Dominance Regimes.

Why would these bother astronomers? These satellites whip by so fast you couldn't see one with a telescope if you tried. I tried for a year to image the ISS in front of the moon. It crossed the full moon in a blink of an eye, and these satellites are tiny in comparison.

@@Thomas_Deering_King I understand what you mean and your right, it has little effect for the time being. But the congestion of satellites was a reference to the Stellarium software I use which allows you to remove them from tracking with really expensive hardware on my telescopes that’s capable of tracking every detectible object. And yes, there moving at thousands of miles an hour so they can’t really be seen. I also think we might of tried getting the ISS passing the moon around the same time lol. But to be honest, these satellites can and will eventually be a problem as you can look up today and almost confuse yourself from a star to a satellite or something else as there released. Elon Musk has thousands of them up there blanketing the Earth. Some are close, most are far and some are stupid fast and others just coast the area. I’m all for the cause, but one day we’ll be seeing fake stars 😂

Hahaha

It was inside it.

They aren’t V2 they are V2 Minis

@@TaurusSpace Gotcha, thanks for the distinction between the two.

@@RobBossOne The full size could fit a Falcon 9 but the cost per launched unit would be very high and it would take forever to fill the needed coverage. The launch of the minis makes sense because you get more than a 50% increase in launched bandwidth for the constellation per launch.

Что-то отвалилось :)

i guess your guess is just a really bad guess. spacex has literally release a few months ago, how V2 starlink are darker then V1, and how they work with astronomer associations to reduce that light even more. they published a white paper making publicly available, for other companies to use, how they "invented" or perfected a way for better reduce light in space! plus its not a mirror, it the solar panels that all satellites have. how do you expect to have power without solar panels?

Can't be sure but... isn't that just a reflection of the glass of the Solar Panel(s) that is (are) still folded?... 🤔 This is just my suspicion though. (But SpaceX doesn't give us a detailed external breakdown of this new model, do they?...)

Apparently each satellite has little thrusters that can position it. The thrusters can also send it back into the atmosphere to burn up, if it is faulty.

Where can we see such photos?

@@stevefrazier2214 technically the ISS is nearly the only satellite viewable from a telescope from my current location. But it’s possible to catch some other orbiting objects, but are extremely hard to capture considering how fast their actually moving. I’m currently compiling all the imagines taken in early March but I will attempt it again in a couple of weeks when I head to Puerto Rico where the night sky’s are much more clearer and closer to the equator. I’ll be posting pictures and videos in the coming weeks of Saturn 🪐, Jupiter and Venus and the darker side of the moon along with some Nebulae and Galaxies.

@@stevefrazier2214 sorry to disappoint for the lack of proof, but I’ll work on getting some stellar shots all year round.

He is the Gates of space. And the fact he is an immigrant is awesome.

I saw that also

The stars ? No where are the other satelites or maybe where is the space station ?

@@vincentbonginkosizwane9786 that's like asking someone "where are all the ants and bugs?" while walking past a park.

@@vincentbonginkosizwane9786 Think about the expected scales: You're talking about things that will be at least many tens of km away. If the Sun hit them just right you might see a glint, but otherwise they'll never show up on a any kind of sane resolution video - never mind when viewed on youtube.

the solar flair didn't actually kill any of them it was just bad timing. they go into a safe mode when there is a solar flair. this just so happened right after launch so they were in safe mode when they needed to be raising there orbits. When launched they are in a deploy orbit which is only high enough for them to stay in orbit a very small amount of time incase any of them don't power on they will deorbit and not be floating around dead.

The resent Solar flare didn't strike the Earth (this time) because we had 'moved' from where we were thank fk.

Oh, Twinkle Twinkle!!!

How bright do you think stars are? The camera has its exposure set for the bright sunlit earth. Obviously you won’t see stars in the same shot as bright sunlight. Same reason you can’t see stars in the day…

So Musk is part of the lie the earth is flat??? He is anti WEF/governments yet he spends millions to keep the governments secret?

Yeah some of you flat earth should take a photography class and maybe do your own science if you’re so insistent that thousands of people are faking space. Or better yet pool your money together for a seat and send a representative up there. I think that’s where Mad Mike should have invested his cash.

You are what intelligent people call a Dimwitt.

learn how camera exposure works

You must be so proud of your stupidity to post such a comment!

Try taking a picture of the stars at night, from inside a floodlit stadium - the camera can't do it - either the bright lit foreground is massively over exposed, or the stars are under exposed and don't show up. The sunlit foreground here is, well, sunlit, and so even brighter than a floodlit stadium's foreground. So why would you expect the stars to show up?

Well, I satellite spot. I catch a few every clear night, where they're predicted to be, and I've done measurements ( via scale drawing, or using simple trig) with the help of a relative a few hundred km due south of me, so we could get their heights and groundpeeds - these always come out as hundreds of km and km per second respectively. I've caught a couple of the bigger, lower altitude ones (including the ISS) through my telescope and they look as expected. And, getting a bit more technical, I used a radio set and a directional antenna to follow the signals produced by several of them, across the sky, so they are definitely machines in communication with the ground. All the above is repeatable by anyone, has been many times. Don't take my word for it, go out and try it. Now, I cannot personally vouch for this video, obviously. And, yes, software to alter digital images is universal today - which is why it's more important than ever to check yourself, out in the world not online. But, when I did check all the things I could check myself, I found that the world acts exactly like these super-high-altitude machines really are operating overhead at the heights and speeds claimed - which make sense, as it's easy to see the advantages of such platforms for all kinds of jobs.

Perception and 1/3rd scale...no one on board ISS...acoustic levitation, small items they can suspend

@@scottdonker3410 Like I said, we triangulate the heights and groundspeeds of these things and they're hundreds of km up, moving at km per second speed. So there's no need for them to be 1/3 scale - they're the right size in my 'scope for the distance we measure them to be at. But, OK, philosophically I've got to grant the possibility that they're kept up by some sort of levitating engine - something derived from the natural mechanisms that would keep things like the Sun, Moon, planets, etc up would be sensible. There're lots of possibilities - a quick search of 'levitation experiments' will reveal a lot of different ways to levitate something, including acoustically as you mentioned. And, yes, it's beyond my ability to verify with my own senses that there's anyone floating aboard the ISS, and it's not just a machine - you can talk to an ISS astronaut by ham radio, but you can't be 100% certain that the signal isn't just being relayed from a speaker on the ground.

But, before we even get into that I'm gonna underline: The claim that gets made by FE conspiracy theorists isn't that these 'satellites' stay up by different mechanisms than claimed. Their claim is that _they_ _are_ _not_ _up_ _there_ , and that no-one sees or is able to track them. I was out last night, and found five of them, including the ISS itself, and did a triangulation on the Terra satellite which showed an altitude of 690 km and a groundspeed of over 6km a second - and that was assuming the ground between me and my co-observer is effectively level. You can see why I feel dismissive of claims from people saying there's nothing up there, no?

@John Freeman devils advocate and reasonable doubt is all I advocate...we have always used magic, is the issue AND I was educated once, too...there's a fine line that separates truth and fiction and truth is way stranger, so...if it's too "complicated" it's not the whole truth...also, objective truth is far different than Subjective truth...they are both right and sometimes that magic of perspective is guarded at all costs.

Like a pancake? :P
