Very well explained, I must admit,it was a bit of a rant I was doing, but Chris' dissection of the arguments is one of the best explanations of my rant I have seen.

Thanks for the clarifications.

Cheers

No problem, glad I could help.

Good on Ya Dr stick it up for censorship

… what censorship? Mitchell is making unfounded claims without evidence. NASA replies simply with “we do not share his opinions on this issue” and that constitutes censorship?

Something to think about – if this IS a big secret government cover-up and Mitchell isn’t just talking complete and utter rubbish … why is he being allowed to speak at all (and remember, he’s been making these claims for years – it isn’t a one off thing)?

Things just don't add up.

Are you saying he didn't?

I’m saying that he’s not providing any evidence to back up what he’s saying. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. “He says” is not evidence. Enough said.

I’ve never seen anything that I can’t explain yet. Though, I assume that I’m far from what you would define as ‘experienced’. Let me ask you something though – when you say “I've seen stuff that wasn't a plane/space junk, or satelite, or Venus lol” are you actually trying to say “I’ve seen an alien spacecraft”? If so, how do you know?
