Lunar warming? Please explain?
A bloke from work just spent £1500 on a telescope. Has all these built in GPS and automatic star location at the press of a button on the laptop. I WANT one but can't justify that sort of money! May be in 20 years time.

I'am guessing it was a pun at global warming

I thought it was something to do with solar flares / activity.. We've been waiting years for the cycle to re-start but it's just not happening. The experts don't know what's going on!

2010, we will get some of the biggest flares, i bet we still don't get a good summer though.

Well if we do then I'm driving up to Norway.

Next time the moons full, go hire "An American Werewolf In London" A great film i saw first when I was a kid. It scared me half to death. Im a Devon boy and driving and walking on Dartmoor has never been the same since.

Had a quick read about nibiru the other day, if its coming then we would be able to see it by now.

Apparently the moon is closer to earth than it's been for some considerable time which explains why it looks bigger ...

well ....maybe it has been seen and they're just not telling us. why would nasa put an infrared telescope in the middle of the antartic?

[Predictable Bob]

Cos the air is less polluted ?

its not an optical telescope

Even novice star gazers would be able to see it, you can supposidly see it in the southern hemisphere right now but noboby is running round shouting about it.

By late 2010 the whole planet should be able to see it "if it exists" so only time will tell & im one of those who won't believe till its staring me in the face.

Loads of stuff on the web about it but who's telling the truth?

[Predictable Bob]

I'm not an expert but I'm pretty sure that airborne pollution will have an effect on IR as well as visible light ...
