That is true. We will not get a delayed image of any interaction with matter.
You are such a liar. You were talking about a "ray of light" emitted from a star, not images or interaction with matter. Can you not read your own words?
You are the liar LadyShea. You will not get away with calling me a liar when I have tried to be civil with you. You don't listen; you talk. You have made up your mind that my father's discovery is crap, so nothing you say means shit to me. You showed your true colors and they're not pretty. I said that light travels. Light is emitted from a star and it travels. If the Sun became father and father away from Earth we would see a ball of light. This would have a shape which could give us some information about the Sun's location, it's size, etc. But that's not what the point of this discussion has been. I said that light interacts with matter IN REAL TIME, and I do not retract this statement. Stop trying to make me look like I don't know what I'm talking about. That's part of your MO and it stinks.

When did you decide that the light would still travel without the source existing? That's a major flip flop
I've never even attempted to argue that point because that's what science tells us.
I have always argued it; I never changed it.
:liar:
I said the information that would let us see Columbus discovering America or any other past event will not be in the light without the event or object being present. I never said light doesn't travel. You hear what you want to hear.
That is not what you said. You clearly stated many times that light doesn't travel independently of its source. See your very own quotes.

Once light leaves the source or the object it is reflected from, it is completely independent of that source or object. There is no interaction of the light with anything and the light has the characteristics that it had when it left the source or object.

The truth is that you don't know what you are talking about, no-one has to make it look that way.

If I cared at all about Peacegril, I would be disappointed at least, at her obstinate ignorance. But at this time, I'm merely amused at her nonsense and lack of understanding.

You are the liar LadyShea. You will not get away with calling me a liar when I have tried to be civil with you.

I do listen, that's why I remember all these things you've said previously and note when you've flip flopped or made contradictory statements. That's how I know what Lessans wrote even when you seem to be saying he wrote something else. You can't seem to remember anything for longer than a few days, or never read it at all (like calling the term lunar laser ranging "gibberish" and asking what I was talking about after we had been discussing it for days :lol:) nor can you follow a discussion.

If the star dies, does the light it emitted during its lifetime continue to travel indefinitely without the source star existing? In the past you've said it does not. You said the light would "peter out" and that light energy couldn't continue on without "being fueled". Do you maintain those positions, or have your changed your stance?

Lessans said we would see the Sun in real time because of how the eyes work. Seeing light coming from the Sun or a faraway galaxy does not conflict with anything I've written.

I saw the video. Nothing in it contradicted Lessans' claims. I already explained that the flash of a laser would never be large enough to be picked by a telescope on Earth. That's why it took 2.6 seconds to see it instead of 1.3 seconds.

Of course I'm angry because you are constantly accusing me of being a liar, which is a lie. That's why I'm ranting and raving. Before you even ask a question, the first word out of your mouth is liar. It's disgusting. You are misusing the word.

I said that nonabsorbed photons do not get reflected which only means they don't travel through space time where they are decoded as an image in the brain. Full spectrum light travels through space/time. I have never wavered on this. Detecting light from the Hubble deep field doesn't negate real time seeing.

According to science, yes, it continues to travel yet others say it doesn't travel forever, just like a stream would eventually dry up when the main body of water stops supplying it.

I'm assuming science is right in that light either changes into another form of energy, or it continues on as light and never stops. But this has no relevance to this discussion. Whatever light is out there, if the object or event is gone, this light will never bring any information through space/time that would allow us to see the distant past, as if to say the past is in the light and it's traveling through the universe. But this doesn't mean that we wouldn't be able to see full spectrum light that has traveled through space/time, which is why I said this doesn't conflict with the Hubble deep field.

No LadyShea. Your bedside manner is awful. If you think I made a mistake, ask me instead of telling me I'm a liar. I told you that I'm trying to answer the questions with as much clarity as I can. I will keep trying to get it right. Regardless of how poorly people think I'm doing in explaining this model of sight, this in itself doesn't negate the claim. I never anticipated the firestorm that has come out of this even though my father knew this claim would upset the scientific community.

I'm doing my best LadyShea. No one is even interested in why he came to his conclusions, and why they need to be taken seriously. Only a handful of people even read this chapter. You can't just handwave his observations away as if they mean nothing, because they mean something.

You don't have the capability to know whether this claim is bullshit or not. I know you are trying to understand, but for you to call this claim crap just because you just don't see its validity, is way premature.

Light ALWAYS arrives with measurable properties - such as direction, frequency, and intensity - from which time-delayed images can be formed.

Do you really not see the problem with the above response?

Imagine you've just got up in the morning, and check the mail only to meet the postman delivering a letter to you from Japan. Wow, you exclaim, how did this letter get here all the way from Japan? Mail from Japan has been shutdown for the past two weeks!

Well, the postman explains, this morning when mail from Japan resumed, a person in Japan went to the post office to drop it off. The letter was taken to Narita airport and placed on a plane which flies to the US, taking around 14hrs, where the letter was dropped off and taken to a mail sorting facility where it was then dispatched to its labelled address, and should arrive here sometime tomorrow or the day after that.

A little confused, you ask: Do you mean this letter I'm now holding in my hand will arrive tomorrow? Oh no, the postman explains. I was telling you about a completely different letter that hasn't arrived yet. Okay, so how did this letter get here, you ask. The postman looks away guiltily and shuffles his feet. What do you mean, he says, I just told you.

Please tell me what is wrong with the postman's explanation. I'm sure you can figure it out. Don't respond with anything about light or vision. Stick to the story.

You need photons at the camera film when the Sun is first ignited.

Are they traveling photons?

Did they come from the Sun?

Did they get to the film by traveling?

Did they travel at the speed of light?

Can they leave the Sun before it is ignited?

You said you have always maintained that ALL light travels.

1. Does that include the light you need at the film on Earth when the Sun is first ignited? [Y/N]

2. Did that light travel from the Sun to get there? [Y/N]

3. If so, how long did it take to complete the journey? [insert duration]

4. And when did it leave the Sun? [insert time relative to Sun's ignition]

It's there Spacemonkey if the object or light source can be seen. You're having a problem with this, that's all. It doesn't mean it's wrong.

Who cares?

What is true is most important, not what others say. I agree with you in that respect.

True, but when light interacts with matter we see this image in real time. Sorry you don't agree. Doesn't change what is.

I'm here aren't I, and I'm taking the brunt of a lot of criticism. So how can you say that I'm only here to protect my faith Spacemonkey? This is not at all about faith, but if you believe that's all it is, then by golly move on. I wouldn't blame you at all.

You need photons at the camera film when the Sun is first ignited.

Are they traveling photons?

Did they come from the Sun?

Did they get to the film by traveling?

Did they travel at the speed of light?

Can they leave the Sun before it is ignited?

That was in response to YOUR comment here: "...this account changes everything. It puts the Sun in the same physical space as your eyes..." Yes, I know. That was just you saying something stupid that you didn't really mean.

Then that should be the end of your magical lenses nonsense, as you've agreed that a lens can only affect light that is of no use to you and which arrives 8min AFTER you need us to be able to see the Sun.

You said you have always maintained that ALL light travels.

1. Does that include the light you need at the film on Earth when the Sun is first ignited? [Y/N]

2. Did that light travel from the Sun to get there? [Y/N]

3. If so, how long did it take to complete the journey? [insert duration]

4. And when did it leave the Sun? [insert time relative to Sun's ignition]
Nope, you are not going to entangle me in something that has no relevance and, worse, does nothing to prove this claim false. You're totally biased which makes you blind, so why should I kowtow to someone who is basing his proof on a centuries old account only because he won't allow himself to understand why this new account is even plausible? I'm not even asking for verification at this point. It's just impossible for us to come together on any intellectual level and for that reason, I'M OUT.

I don't even have time to respond to you LadyShea. You are a person who is determined to show her intelligence for all to see. That makes this debate with you very cumbersome and filled with holes. Call me a liar if you want. I"m sure this elevates you to a position you don't hold.

You are the one who mentioned what "others" believed, as if you had some kind of agreement with your ridiculous position. So obviously you "care" enough to have made the comment in the first place.

No, I am determined to highlight your dishonesty, at this point. This weaseling away from your obvious bullshit by attacking me is a good example of it.

It hasn't had time to travel there. To travel there would take 8min, and you need it there instantly, remember?

Of course you are wrong. You just said the laser flash is not large enough to be picked up by the telescope, yet that is exactly what happens.

You already have conceded this point, several times in fact. When shown that there is nothing else the non-absorbed photons can do but be reflected you always retract your claim and concede that they do get reflected.

No, that is not what it means to say photons don't get reflected.
That's what he meant. What you mean is moot.
How could it be what Lessans meant? He never said anything about photons or reflection. This is purely shit YOU have made up. And it is wrong. You are wrong about what it means to say photons are not reflected.

You are missing the point that what light is comprised of DOES MATTER. Full spectrum light is not the same thing as nonabsorbed light, which photons use to reveal.
No-one is denying the difference between full and partial spectrum light. The point is that ALL light travels through space/time, not just full spectrum light.

It's there Spacemonkey if the object or light source can be seen. You're having a problem with this, that's all. It doesn't mean it's wrong.
I didn't ask if it was there or not. I asked whether or not it traveled to get to where it now is. Once again you weasel and waver on this point, contrary to your above claim.

Can't argue with that.
You can't argue with Hubble negating real-time vision? Good. So much for efferent vision then.

Anyone who cares about basic honesty will care. Why did you just make up that lie about 'others' saying something they are not?

True...
So your claim about information was false. Arriving light DOES bring information, even if the object or event is gone.

I didn't say that. I asked a question, and you have again failed to answer. When you claim to be doing 'your best', what do you mean? Are you doing your best to honestly and directly answer all reasonable questions? Or are you rather doing your best to dishonestly weasel to protect your faith-based delusions from criticism?

Out of your mind. You've yet again just weaseled by completely refusing to even try to answer perfectly reasonable questions - ones that you had said you would answer. You are lying when you say you are doing your best. You're not doing anything of the sort. Weasel queen.
