    If you use a Nikon P1000 to zoom in closely and videotape the action on the stars, they do not at all llook like any sun. They look more like flaming marshmallows, with small plasma, flames, dancing all over them at a very fast rate. Some of them even look like flat discs at some point with ripples pulsating across the surface. Another amazing thing that we are not shown and have never been shown. What is there to hide?

    Some people call Jesus "Son of God". Some call Jesus a "Messiah". Some refer Jesus as "Messenger of God". Little do they know that Jesus was God who came in the flesh to save us from our sins. Jesus has come for the second time with new name. "Christ Ahnsahnghong" is God, our heavenly father. God revealed the bible truth about our heavenly mother. "Mother Jerusalem" is our spiritual heavenly Mother. In a world plagued by disasters such as floods, wars, earthquakes and wildfires, "Passover of the new covenant" is a means to steer clear of these calamities. Come to Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother. Come to Zion "World Mission Society Church Of God". God bless you Have Eternal Life Thanks to Elohim God Amen 🙏🏻

    Just like all the rest this is stupid. It would make so much more sense if you start outside of the galaxy then zoom into the spiral arm then to the star constellation instead of a bunch of dots in the dark.

    The best for me, a rather light weight, 1.2 kg, good performance, sharp images and mg11 accessible, the 15x 70 mm ...! 1,000 stars in colour ! 1 million stars available on very clear nights ! You can count the Pleiades and evaluate sky quality ! I have begun searching for asterisms similar to the cloud holder south west of albireo, in Cignus. An I have already found mini Pleiades, mini great bear, another example of the cloud holder. A mini cassiopeia, etc...
