10 watts. That's the power it took to send pictures from Pluto to Earth.

Radio transmitters here on earth can be 50,000 watts or more. Yet a mere 10 watts was all it took to send pictures and collect data from Pluto.

Snapshot Of The Week Humanity s First Close-Up Glimpse Of Pluto

“The pictures showed ice mountains on Pluto about as high as the Rockies and chasms on its big moon Charon that appear six times deeper than the Grand Canyon,” wrote Marcia Dunn of the Associated Press. Additionally, Pluto turned out to be about 50 miles in diameter larger than estimated and seems to be geologically active.

How were scientists able to get this right, but are so stupid, they are fooled into believing climate change? And those that smear and mock scientists have nothing even close to show why they are smarter and know more than scientists.

Amazing -- aint it RDean.. Science is supposed to give the public a sense of awe when it does something so apparently magical.. Unlike global warming -- the trick here is to send the data REPEATEDLY and with error correction and EXCRUCIATINGLY slowly. So that you can integrate that tiny amount of information over time.

That's why a tweet from Pluto would take YOU hours to read. Just like normal..

To right wingers, science is magical.

To left wingers, trains and crystals are magical... Science IS magical. Even to scientists. Because like magicians, they KNOW how the trick works. But they often SELL it to an audience as an "illusion" that can't be known.. Much like Global Warming.. [/QUOTE]
They build a spaceship, guide it to Pluto over 4 billion miles away. Take close up pictures. Send the pictures back to earth.
But they are so stupid they are taken in by "Global Warming". You would have to be a tard to believe something so idiotic.[/QUOTE]

Well you were entertained and amazed about the 10 watts part. Werent you? The illusion worked on you.
its a great execution of a space experiment. you can thank nuclear power for the trip by the way.

Physics is a hard science and you never hear real physicists talking about "settled science". They have centuries of experiments, climate scientists don't even have one successful Experiment linking temperature to a wisp of CO2. Thanks for highlighting why climate scientists are a joke

Funny, the only time I've ever actually heard the term "settled science" is from right wingers. Scientists may say, for instance that there is nothing available to replace evolution. That everything we have learned points to evolution. That the theory itself is constantly being reinforced as more knowledge is gathered and better understood. But as more knowledge is gathered, it's constantly being changed and fine tuned. But just saying "God made it" is laughable.
Same thing with climate change. This is why right wingers are "laughable". The only information we have is what scientists have discovered for us. There is no information coming from the right. Only denial framed with "I don't want to believe it" underlined by "I refuse to believe it". This is why the right is having such a difficult time. Determined ignorance is all they have.

Illusion? What illusion?
So it has a plutonium battery because solar panels don't get enough light. So what? I missed your point.
