Gah, I'm joining this so late. I'm going to guess you're from YouTube, in which case welcome ghost. I'll tackle this particular post and probably chip in to the older ones as and when I spot something.
Go to google sky and you'll see what I mean. At the north and south pole, there is this huge tie dye looking area. The reason this is there, is because of the earth's curve.
I can only imagine you are talking about how flat images of the sky don't tend to create nice smooth images when joined together. You'll get the same effect when wrapping a flat paper map of the Earth around a sphere - the piece of paper around the equator will be relatively smooth, but at the poles where an entire edge has to meet up at a single point, you get a whole lot of bunching.
If you're using Google Sky as an example, just hop over to Google Earth. The 3D model will show you the exact same thing, but in 'reverse' (as we're looking at a sphere from the outside, as oppose to from within). And this bunching will happen anywhere where you wrap a flat map around a sphere - if you orient the map through 90 degrees so that the poles lie on the equator, two points of your map will have to be bunched up and distorted.
The only telescope that can see that part of the sky is the reflector in antartica.
The entire Northern hemisphere can see Polaris. The higher north you are, the easier it is to see as the star is higher in the sky. The same goes for the southern hemisphere and Sigma Octantis, or the much easier to see southern cross. The further south you are, the easier it is to see.
So you may have a point that 'the best placed telescope to see that part of the sky is the reflector in antartica', but that does not stop people in South Africa, Australia and South America to observe it too.
The south Pole Telescope was put there to see if Nibiru was goin to respond to the golden record we sent to them years ago.
Except that the golden record on Voyager 1 is not heading south or 'below the Earth'. Amateur radio operators in Germany have been able to receive signals from Voyager 1. Last time I checked, Germany was not located at the South Pole…
However, they havent responded.
That we can pretty much agree on.
We know through radio data, that there is intelligence on this planet, but they wont return any of our communications.
How? How do you know through radio data that there is intelligence on this planet. And to expand on that of course, how do you know there is a planet in the first place?
2 reasons this would happen (1) They are far too advanced to respond to our radio signals, or (2) They are hostile and intentionally killing all of their out going radio signals, to remain cloaked. Either way, we are positive it is inhabited.
There are far more than two options to choose from, but seeing as we're getting off topic by discussing the probability of alien communication I'm not going into them all. Suffice it to say you've first got to show us there is a planet, let alone an alien race.
If you pay close attention to NASA news, you'll see they are gradually releasing information, to lessen the total blow.
Any recent links you want to point us to?
Also, they are sworn to secrecy under the United States Government.
NASA might be, but that doesn't stop amateur astronomers from being able to track experimental launch vehicles, for example, and then releasing their findings instantly. NASA is not the only space agency in the world you know, nor is it the only agency capable of 'looking up'.
(Seedbanks)
I don't care about seedbanks right now. And if you're referring to the Svalbard seedbank up in Norway, they have a few hundred seeds per species. They aren't going to be handing out breakfast in a disaster event.
Right now, as we speak, The South Pole Telescope is tryiing to communicate with the inhabitants of Nibiru.
For a telescope that only receives radio signals, and radio signals from the Big Bang in the form of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation, that's a pretty impressive claim that requires pretty impressive evidence. The SPT looks for clusters of galaxies on a scale on the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can't see, at time scales most people can't comprehend. To suggest it looks for one teeny tiny planet that nobody else can see and yet you somehow have details of, is astounding. So if you could back up your claims, that'd be nice.
As you mentioned before, you may well see all this as insulting, but it's not a stretch for others to see you as insulting. Apparently, you've got evidence that you cannot reveal. That's not how we do things in Science, it's how we act in a belief system. Put forth your evidence for some testing, and we'll see what happens - heck, if you're right, what do you have to lose? Make us all look like idiots for not seeing the blindingly obvious. Or, accept that you don't have evidence, you've only got a bit of faith.
