Color and all? My problem is with the dishonest, for-hire prostitute “scientific” world that will show you concocted images of supposed activities in the stellar heavens, when 50% of the time they can’t tell me, with certainty, what the weather will be here on Earth 48 hours from now.

Once they convince all the rubes that they can actually “see” these things in all their glorious splendor, from that far out, mark my words, they’re going to start claiming that things the rubes are doing are messing up the ecosphere and demanding lifestyle changes and imposing new taxes!/S

The title, pushing the idea that new stars are being “born” was the first burr under my saddle. There are some very learned and qualified scientists around who will tell you that the whole “new star” story being told is another fraud by the evolutionist crowd. They MUST keep pushing the idea that evolution continues.

They’ve totally struck out as to producing any real fossil proof of past or continuing evolution here on terra firma; so they’re taking a whack at selling evolution in space. JMHO

“Color and all?”

Next thing you’ll be telling us is that color thermal imaging and color magnetic resonance imaging doesn’t represent real physical phenomena.

“My problem is with the dishonest, for-hire prostitute “scientific” world that will show you concocted images of supposed activities in the stellar heavens, when 50% of the time they can’t tell me, with certainty, what the weather will be here on Earth 48 hours from now.”

On the contrary, your problem is your own dishonesty with yourself and everyone else as you deny real truths for no better reason than deliberate ignorance. “Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding. (King James Bible “Authorized Version”, Cambridge Edition). Another modern form is the wisdom: “Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool than to Speak and Remove All Doubt.”

In this case you wrongly conflate the difference between the ability to predict or observe precipitation will occur somewhere within a broad region with the inability to accurately predict or observe the occurrence of precipitation in one specific place at one specific hour. We can see this same problem of prediction in a wide variety of chaotic physical events, ranging from explosions to the throwing of dice. It is not so difficult to observe the occurrence of the macro event, yet the ability to calculate an individual micro event within the larger macro event is problematic because of the vast difference in the scope of potential uncertainties which would need to be resolved. For an example, knowing an explosion will occur within a certain area can be known to a virtual certainty, whereas determining the exact size and trajectory of an individual piece of shrapnel projected by the explosion may be too uncertain to calculate with any reasonable hope of accuracy.

The birth of a star is fairly easy to observe and discern once you have an instrument which can accurately detect the electromagnetic energy being emanated by the new star from behind any obscuring gas and dust clouds.

“The title, pushing the idea that new stars are being “born” was the first burr under my saddle. There are some very learned and qualified scientists around who will tell you that the whole “new star” story being told is another fraud by the evolutionist crowd. They MUST keep pushing the idea that evolution continues.”

Obviously, you are simply being willfully and stupidly ignorant like the Know Nothings proudly displaying their ignorant stupidity and dishonesty. The only thing fraudulent here is your stupidly ignorant comparison of astrophysics with the pseudo-science and political science of the Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) and anthropogenic Climate Change fraudsters. Your claim there are “very learned and qualified scientists” making such claims is self-contradictory; because they can hardly qualify as scientists if and when they claim to deny the validity of the scientific method that is the basis of being a scientist in the first place. This is a matter of undeniable observational evidence and not a matter of a difference of subjective opinion.

“They’ve totally struck out as to producing any real fossil proof of past or continuing evolution here on terra firma; so they’re taking a whack at selling evolution in space. JMHO”

There is nothing whatsoever that can be reckoned as humble or honest about your opinion.

I was just answering your question of how they reconstruct the image - if you want to get into theory that’s a different discussion - and i’m not likely farther from you then you think.
