Yes. You can see distant radio signals bounce off the trails even when
you cannot see them visibly. A few amateur astronomers do it for fun.

The full moon means you will only see the brightest ones tonight.

If a tree falls in a forest?

What makes you assume they may not?

If the NAO is negative.

Because the time of the phase is 18:58, the weather will be wet and
cloudy following a pluperfect setup of Jul 15 06:40 and Jul 30 18:40
swinging with two anticyclone spells in a year for blocking
anticyclones: Jul 23 05:02 and Aug 6 11:08.

Even more interesting than one supposed?

Nice of Goolie to get it's underpants sorted in time, eh?

BTW, is it expert opinion to assume carbonates are proof of life?
It sounds silly to me but who knows what great minds think if there is
a budget for that sort of thing?
