Have you seen how much of this post is you arguing with multiple people? You're doing far more harm than good here.

[–] Cypher@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

You could have just said you don't know why those carbon rings are there or even (the horror) kept quiet.

Instead you posted bullshit and got called out.

I don't care beyond telling you that you are full of shit and should know when to shut up.

I used one word in error. What I posted was not bullshit.

Wrong as I have already clearly stated.

Carbon... which doesn’t fit nicely into the known laws of physics

This is complete and utter bullshit and the fact you don't understand this is really damning.

Remember the actual question?

What’s a carbon dust shell and why’s that cool?

Carbon is well understood and behaves as expected. Science can and has explained why those carbon dust shells are present in the JWST image.

So you didn't address the question, you were wrong, and you've continued arguing about it because that's what morons spreading misinformation do.

Carbon still fits into the laws of physics you nonce.

Not neatly. It defies many standard rules, as explained in that link. It's super cool!
