The gravitational lensing I have seen posited as a cause of confirmed observations includes lensing from distant, large, and distinctly non-Solar entities - are we to presume these things have the required "atmospheres", as well? Speaking as a layman, just looking at the arguments, the frequency with with Einstein's name comes up reminds me of the frequency with which Darwin's name comes up in various attempts to argue against Darwinian evolution in biology - this manner of arguing from authority mistakes the nature of the authority invoked, imho.
Why should they? The effect when the Sun is involved is minimal at best, and gravitational lensing occurs with many cosmological entities, including Neutron stars, BH's and DM. I realise you have a beef against science as it has failed to give any credibility to any of your paranormal beliefs and Aliens flittering in and then flittering out again, but that's what science and the scientific method does best....sorting the shit from the clay.
That is my point iceaura ; the Sun's corona was not considered at all for this so called " gravitational lensing " .
You don't have a point: The effect when the Sun is involved is minimal at best, and gravitational lensing occurs with many cosmological entities, including Neutron stars, BH's and DM.
river argued this point in another thread around 7 or 8 weeks ago. All this continued saga is showing is that he does not read or accept anything that interferes with his obsession against mainstream science. The many answers he received previously concerned the fact that light refracted by the Sun's corona is chromatic [i.e., it refracts at different wavelengths] Gravitational lensing is achromatic as was shown in that thread in many papers.

Now you are obviously trolling river, and also you have given no link to whatever it is you are trying to claim.
It wasn't even happening in this solar system. It was in the other direction from the Sun, and very far away.
river ignored the obvious continually...It interferes with his ghost/goblins and supernatural agenda.
I understand you are trolling, and I understand that whenever you are caught between a rock and a hard place, you start trolling. I'll leave you to what you do best. And again, you have given no link to whatever you are trying to claim...that's against the rules.
No it wasn't....Oh and thanks for finally linking, albeit being pseudoscience in most respect....You do know what a reputable link is? Explains actually why you were so reluctant to give it. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
