    https://ancientblog.net/1-billion-space-probe-from-nasa-sent-some-mind-blowing-jupiter-photos-back-to-earth-5673/

    The photos look great, and do appear to be genuine. The other "articles" on that website... not so much.

    Moon Is An Artificial Construction Brought Here Million Years Ago By 2 Reptilian Brothers

    Thousands of Extraterrestial UFOs Leaving Earth Filmed by ISS

    Huge Ancient Pyramids in Antarctica?

    Is this your daily go-to for news, TR?

    Fair 'nuff. I got suspicious reading the inane "comments" between photos - and then saw the links down the bottom to other blog entries.

    Batshit. Crazy.

    NASA's image link - https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/juno/images/index.html

    Of course you can follow the rabbit down the hole and end up at "moon landings" if you so desire. 😜

    NASA Teases ‘Psyche,’ A Robot To Explore An Asteroid Worth More Than Our Global Economy

    How many zeros?

    Google says one quadrillion is 10^15.

    So Ten Thousand Quadrillion = 10^19.

    However if we were to use good old fashioned British quadrillions it would be 10^24 and 10^28 respectively.

    I think they're the American quadrillion though.

    Anybody else illogically annoyed by the fact that the world has adopted the American economy sized billion of one thousand million instead of the traditional one million million? Always annoyed me growing up.

    1000 million should really be a Killion, as in a kilo million.

    Probably made to look worse by the size the satellites appear, but yes.

    Assume the lineal ones are the new space x?

    I don't have a problem with them. They provide so many services and some good people would be alive now if GPS was readily available when I flew in PNG.

    There are fair few departing orbit, and some inbound as well. Guess that they are not man made ones, so where is the graphic from?
