Haha! |

Haha! These are probably people whose only exposure to astronomy was a general science class or a canned planetarium program emphasizing special effects over substance/insight. Had they been interested enough in astronomy in school, they might have obtained a 60mm refractor or slightly larger scope and had a chance to learn and retain a bit more, on their own, via direct experience. Or had they had a 60mm refractors of their own and used it to look at Moon, etc., they might have paid more attention in class. Just a thought. |

Is there no value to the audience in hearing those correct answers? |

Actually, these is a clever question, because visually the Moon and Sun looks the same size up in the sky! So for those really ignorant about astronomy, it can be confusing. Jay had a question in this other video, which is heavier 1 lb of fat or 1 lb of muscle? Check it out at 4:03! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwjIL8BgvO8 |

Check it out at 4:03! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwjIL8BgvO8 Did you hear the one about the group of academics who couldn't figure out that just as the stars follow the appearance of the Sun within each weekday that this is due to one rotation of the Earth ? - ” It is a fact not generally known that,owing to the difference between solar and sidereal time,the Earth rotates upon its axis once more often than there are days in the year” NASA /Harvard http://hypertextbook.com/facts/1999/JennyChen.shtml These bunch of frauds lately changed the ideology to rotation once in 24 hours back in the year 1820 . I understand that academic institutions are older than most democracies so they can adjust their ideology without interference however these 'leap second' dummies can't understand that the relationship between the Earth's 360 degree rotation, the 24 hour day and the Lat/Long system is inviolate and is impossible due to the core principles. The real dopes are not those who made the original mistake via timekeeping modelling but academic contemporaries who just make a bad situation much worse. |
