There are fundamentalists in many faiths. First of all, the person that you are speaking with must accept that what your seeing is 6000 light years away. To my surprise I have had some creationist say that the Earth APPEARS to be as old as it is but that 6000 years ago God made it LOOK that way. Can you also believe that in The Bible it says that the Moon shines over the night and that is why some say that the Moon irradiates light?
If you and your adversary do not have common ground to start on then your debate is no longer a debate but an argument.
Start with what you have in common first then go from there.
Galileo invented and assembled the modern telescope that we use in our world today.
Galileo Galilei was a physicist and an astronomer. He proved hat the heliocentric universe was correct, not the geocentric universe, with his telescope that he invented. Galileo also found out that other planets have moons too. And finally, he proved Aristotle wrong by finding that objects fall at the same speed, no matter what their weight is.
because it can
It was Galileo. He first thought thet the earth was revolving around the sun, but others didn't believe him because they thought that God created the world as the center. He made a telescope and proved to everyone that the solar system is following the geometrical system, the Earth revolving around the Sun.
no, many planets have an orbit that is more of an oval shape. Few planets actually revolve around the sun, such as the moon, which actually revolves around the Earth, because earth has the closest amount of high atmospheric pressure. Also the sun is not the center of the universe. It is probably a humongous black hole about 28,000 lightyears away. So, Schmidt, You are not the center of the universe. (c)
No, because it will be impossible for the SDSS telescope to map out all 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
No, because it will be impossible for the Hubble Space Telescope to map out all 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
I think it is because The Universe is so GIANT that earth measures just aren't enough. I hope I helped!
it is 24000 metres
no, that depends, because super giants are so big, they can be seen easiely depending on its distance. a super giants can be seen by telescope and u can usually tell its super giant, though their are millions of super giants in the universe, and other solar system, but we just don't have the avanced technology to see them. because of they are millions or thousands of lightyears away

The Universe appears to be dark because space (meaning nothing), contains no matter for the sun to shine on. Also, another reason is that the universe is so large that, if you were to even try to look at the edge of the universe from outer space, the light would not exist beyond a certain point (because of the measurement of lightyears, and the never ending radius of the universe that is expanding). Thus, the universe is black.
Uh... Yes? Just because Christians don't really believe in the Big Bang (I'm Christian and I believe in it, so sue me.) doesn't mean they don't believe in the universe.
They are extremely important because they give us a view of the universe that is betterthan the telescopes on the ground.
The universe is not black. The universe as a whole is microwave, at a cavity radiation temperature of about 3 K. The space between stars just looks black because you can't see microwave.
Edwin Hubble did not think of making the Hubble Space Telescope. The Hubble space telescope is simply named after him because of his contributions to astronomy. His greatest discovery came in 1929 when he determined that the Universe was expanding, which later became the bases for the Big Bang theory.
