I downloaded the heavens above app. I have been going outside on the deck each night and watching as the satellites pass overhead. It is amazing that there are thousands of satellites that circle the Earth all the time that are visible to the eye.

It is amazing how scientists can make all of the calculations to put a satellite into geosynchronous orbit, then be smart enough to speed up the clocks on them by a fraction so our GPS systems work. Even more amazing is that Einstein told us 80 years ago that the earth bends time so we knew to make the clocks run faster in orbit so that the would sync with the ones on earth.
yet some how people do not trust scientists when they tell us to stay at home and 6 feet apart.

Yet a small molecular string that can infect cells can cause the global communities come to a halt.

too many people mistake confidence with competence. It seems to get us into all kinds of messes.

^^Are you being a voice of reason?
If so...I'm a bit unsettled by that prospect!

I'm not sure a like this side of balm. It's a little unnerving during these difficult times.

The list of theorems is infinite; the list of proofs...

not so much.
Science as all fact with no fallacy is one of the classic blunders & only slightly less known as never get involved in a land war in Asia.

if clocks on the space station run slower than the juans on earth, I would say the Eisenstein's general relativity theory is probably correct.

It's not an argument for all science & the answer is math.

Science is based on empirical observations, maff not remotely, in fact a mathematician would likely cringe at the notion.
Einstein decided early on to be a physicist. He's credited with juan of my favorites sayings, "Logic[math] can take you from A to B, but imagination[science] can take you anywhere." Some have suggested there's no written proof it's his, but it definitely describes his written reasons for choosing science over math.
The idea that science is perfect is horrendous as science is constantly changing based on new observation. It's in empirical observation that science lives, theory, test, hypothesis, then new observation creating born again theory, testing, then new hypothesis.
You'd be better suggesting Math is not fallible, because it's arbiter of truth is proof, not empirical observation.
Einstein would fail you miserably, you get an F for the day.

That idgit "analogy" attempting to use one to prove...

all other?
Not even remotely the same branch & math is the proof, which is a fail.
Are you done Mr. Swedish Champion? Stay down now, unless you're still fighting?

Am I fast, or is Sweden just a really small place?
Common Sense is fleeting, not doubt about that though.
