I suppose you could say it is the direction of the shortest route to a given distance from the Sun, whatever distance you want to arbitrarily set as where the "outer solar system." It would be the direction we'd see incoming bits of ice or rock...

But I'm confused, isn't there no such thing as "the direction of the outer solar system"? That only makes sense to me if everything is lined up as in a diagram, but they're not.

That's not a "region of the sky". It's as much a *time* as it is a place. And there are hundreds of billions of them in different places simultaniously, as there's hundreds of billions of potential observers.

I took this yesterday with my phone. A short window of great lighting before sunset.

One of them, at least. And note that the claim was not initially made by the Hills. Betty's "Star Map" has now been "matched" to several different parts of space, depending on which parts of the map (or which real stars) you are willing to...

Yeah I know. You don't need to convince me about Bob, I wrote this 5 years ago :) : Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/oyxuok/bob_lazars_story_is_it_believable_here_is_some_of/ The problem we have is this. The people pushing...

Just took this pic of sky from my front door, with some digital lens flare, too:

I picked them because I had a corresponding tile downloaded. I checked how many matches that tile remainder had with MNRAS 2022 final R. It was zero so I had to check if I made a mistake. Manual screening, using just source extractor pass 2...

Thank you for these clarifications.

We can always select star images that are not saturated. In the plates I got so far, very few stars are saturated, and these are accounted for by the data analysis software.

You are right that "stars do not have PSFs", in the sense that starlight gets first smeared by the atmosphere, and only then goes thru the telescope optics and is affected by the PSF. Because atmospheric smearing is orders of magnitude larger...
