Well that sucks.
Try looking for "Mike Rowe" and "The history of the universe" on YouTube.
@dalefvictor Thanks for tnat, Ive been able to find a few things.
I really like the way he is able to speak, makes it easy to follow.

i listen to this show all the time (my eyes are bad but i look up from time to time). wonderful show. i keep the science channel on much of the time. exceptions: 1. when they play big noisy machine shows, 2. when something else is on i want to see or 3. when i don't have the tv on. how the universe works is one of my favorites.

There are so many misconceptions on these "science" shows - you don't learn about the Universe by looking through a telescope - you learn by logical reasoning.

@Simplysassy My point is there are many misconceptions about science - not everything Einstein or Hawking thought was true.
@gater yes would you like to explain what and why. Last I read they were doing fairly well with their predictions.
@Mortal That's right - you don't learn about the Universe by looking through a telescope. You learn about astronomy. We a only see a relatively small portion of the Universe. What we can see is like a single grain of sand on the whole earth, even less because the Universe is infinite. But you will never know that by looking through a telescope.
Einstein wasn't always correct in his theories, particularly the part where he theorized time slowed as we approach the speed of light. This is wrong. Time is a constant.
And the Big Bang Theory is an attempt to explain the beginning of the Universe - the Universe had no beginning. All of their "Science" is wrong.
So let me ask you something - why are you such a condescending ass?
@Mortal Wrong - on both counts. Time doesn't slow, devices slow. Time Dilation.
@Mortal Like I ever needed help from you.
@Simplysassy I agree that its great to learn about space and whats out there, but when I hear the science shows speaking of the Big Bang like its true, I cringe.

Posted by starwatcher-alI missed the early phases of the eclipse but the clouds mostly left during totality. All in all a great eclipse. Next one is Nov. 8-22
