 You know how heat waves will make solid objects look like they're sorta waving around. Same thing happening to the plane.

Thats a photo of the sun through a solar filter with a plane flying past it. Thats what it really looks lke. I have one
 Thats probly though atleast the equivilent of a 16" Neutonian telescope(i wouldnt doubt its from a large 32inch or more form an observatory.). Maybe alot larger. Very good qaulity. Any weird lines or blurs, besides the grains on the son wich are normal, are from the normal interferience from the atmosphere. The plane can be high enough to get some from it i think.Edit: ok it might be from a camera with some nice equipment, but its the same thing. Equivilent of the picture of a damn nice, and what would normally take, a very big telescope. Edit2: Sorry, I think thats from a 70mm refractor telescope(unless thats the eyepeice size of a damn big telescope)(im a little rusty on telescope terms). Wow thats good. The qaulity must be from the cameras lenses. Last edited by Ait'al; 2004-03-30 at 06:17 PM. |

The plane is in proportion if viewed correctly. The left wing looks a little odd because of the winglet sticking up, it looks like the wing is bent. The tail engine would not be blocked looking at it from this view. The 'pixel distortion' is most likely from jet wash.

People dont fake telescope pictures like that. And its not that hard to wait for a plane to fly in front of one depending on the location. Ive watched stuff in front of the sun with a solar filter and thats what it looks like. Theres just atmospheric distortions around the plane which is always there unless you have damn fine filters on the telescope and/or the camera besides the solar one or are using the hubble or other space bases telescopes wich couldnt get a picuture of a plane with the worst atmospheric distortion imaginable from looking twice through the edge of the earths atmosphere. But thats what it looks like.

Theres an overabundance of pictures like that on astronomical websites. And that looks very authentic to me. Ive seen stuff like that before personally. The steam and every thing would show up that fine, especially with that qaulity picture taking capabilities. And if you know what your looking at teh bottom of the picture says what they used to take it. Its looks like a picture from an official site. Thats normal labeling for people who know what there doing. Unless someone lifted an actual picture form an astronomical website in france and added something that you normally can find in pictures like this.
