How do we have the equipment to picture and see cosmos and stars millions of light years away, but can’t just zoom-in to examine and view the surfaces of our interplanetary planets in the solar system?
In: Physics
The answer is why you can see a match a mile away on a dark night. The stars we see millions of miles away are smaller than individual pixels, but they are light sources. We are noticing the light they admit, how it changes, how they move, and so forth, but we aren’t making them ‘bigger’.
