astronomical observatories requiring uh

00:02:20,210 --> 00:02:18,120

Chiles and Spain compared light

42
00:02:32,089 --> 00:02:30,080
pollution at almost 50 observatories

47
00:02:45,530 --> 00:02:41,700
how light travels through Earth's

48
00:02:47,990 --> 00:02:45,540

00:05:03,830 --> 00:05:00,600
scientists have identified two minerals

94
00:05:06,610 --> 00:05:03,840
never before seen on Earth in a

95
00:05:09,070 --> 00:05:06,620

says

107
00:05:55,070 --> 00:05:50,759
2022's best UFO ET story has to be that

108
00:05:58,689 --> 00:05:55,080

the Flat Earth

113
00:06:17,330 --> 00:06:13,080
because it refuses to die despite being

114
00:06:20,529 --> 00:06:17,340
