A few years ago when I had a Nikon P900, 83X optical zoom I recorded the star Sirius going by. Then slowed it down to see what's going on with "twinkling". Why don't planets do that. The shapes though with this twinkling is pretty interesting when slowed down. 7 min long vid to pass by screen. (cdn.videy.co)

good old modern cosmology. Don't ask too many questions cus once you dive in to there "scientific" reasoning it all starts to fall apart.

Not sure how old you are, but when i was kid in the 90s there were 9 planets in the whole universe. Now they say ever single star has at least 1 planet and we now have 8 planets in our solar system along with 5 dwarf planets.

any answer you get nowadays regarding any question related to cosmology is simply a theory. A theory based on our currently accepted facts, accepted facts that will change over time as they add to/or change aspects of our model, a model that according to many top experts cant actually be proven and is chosen based on "philosophical" criteria.

What your doing now (independent research which physical experimentation) is more valuable then any arbitrary answer you could find online.

I hope you continue your observation and experimentation

It's a special item pickup. Just pick the one you want when it flashes.

looking at sirius star.. twinkling.. how come planets don't twinkle like that?

Searching for: why do stars twinkle but planets don't

Generating answers for you…

That’s a good question. The reason why stars twinkle but planets don’t is because of the Earth’s atmosphere. The atmosphere is made of different layers of air that have different temperatures and densities. When the light from a star passes through these layers, it bends or refracts slightly. This makes the star appear to change its position and brightness rapidly. This effect is called scintillation or twinkling12.

Planets, on the other hand, are much closer to us than stars. They appear as tiny disks in the sky, not as points of light. When the light from a planet passes through the atmosphere, it also refracts, but the refraction is averaged out over the disk. This means that the planet’s light is more steady and does not twinkle as much12.

The amount of twinkling also depends on how high the star or planet is in the sky. The higher it is, the less atmosphere it has to pass through, and the less it twinkles. The lower it is, the more atmosphere it has to pass through, and the more it twinkles13. That’s why stars near the horizon twinkle more than stars overhead.


When I had that equipment and vehicles.. one time I wanted to try and get sirius out in the country, with it coming up the horizon.. but it's a bit of a bitch out here cause I think it gets into winter, eh. lol. Then ya gotta get out of the city. Where there's no shit on the horizon. Thought it could be like the moon where it's bigger on the horizon but I couldn't get it goin. lol.

It's also good to go and film shit yourself, then you know it's not fucked with by whoever, right.

Let's look around for somebody who filmed sirius on the horizon.

AI created planet?

Lots of renderings reminiscent of AI in those images of you ask me.

There are mixed theories about Sirius being "heaven/haven", and the place we will go when we get yeeted up by galactic federation space taxis. It may in fact be a parallel earth or even an open Stargate (it may not be as far away as we think). Some say we will all go (WWG1WGA) when this earth is destroyed, or while the biblical last half of the tribulation takes place, it will be where believers in Christ will be chilling till the new earth/heaven is formed.

It's strange, appears to be light, not material. And yet aliens are said to come from Sirius. So they are energy beings?
