The Best Astronomy DVD Ever Made
This is the show from Friday July 1st, 2011.
SUMMARY:
* Real Science Friday Listens In to Spike Psarris: On this special edition of RSF, you'll hear from the stunning DVD, What You Aren't Being Told About Astronomy. Spike Psarris, former engineer with the U.S. military space program lists some of the very many observations that seriously contradict the standard evolutionary scheme for forming the Solar System.
* Discover Magazine Astronomy Blogger Attacks Psarris & RSF: Discover's evolutionist Phil Plait accused Spike Psarris, of CreationAstronomy.com, of being deceptive because he uses the term "evolution" to describe naturalistic astronomy for, as Plait wrote, "evolution has nothing to do with astronomy." Instead of showing humility and dropping the issue, next Plait criticized Real Science Friday for our report on the spat, which included this comment: "Spike knocks it out of the park by showing the covers of nine astronomy texts, each one with the word evolution in their titles, such as Solar System Evolution."
* Stephen Hawking's Circular Reasoning Exposed: Not as though that was difficult however. Hawking claims that in the Big Bang the laws of physics produced the universe, even though the Big Bang claims those laws did not exist prior to the Big Bang. And Hawking says, for example, that the matter of the universe came from energy borrowed from the gravitational energy of the universe, to which Enyart asks, "What universe?" If you're explaining the origin of the universe, you cannot appeal to the universe itself. Honorable mention is also given to Hawking's ideas that people should avoid talking to aliens, and also that to escape global warming, the end-of-the-world doomsday prophet atheist astrophysicist wants mankind to go to the Moon or Mars, evidently forgetting that the Moon's daytime temperature is over 200 degrees (107 C) and that neither location has liquid water or oxygen. The Sun is Earth's source of global warming, and because Mars is 50 million miles further from our Sun, its temperature ranges from 1 degree F down to 178 below! So mankind should flee from a temporary one degree fluctuation in the Earth's temperature into about 200 degrees, above and below zero, and say good-bye to liquid water and oxygen. And if global warming is really so threatening to mankind, why does Hawking overlook the more logical safe havens of Antarctica, Greenland and Siberia?
