I can relate to this, but not to the concept that light is reflected thousands of miles away for god knows what reason exactly, and yet I cannot see the light between here and there? That confuses me slightly. Can you help relate it to me, more down to earth, so I can understand? Please? Why...

I'm not trying to argue with anyone, just learn a few things. Sorry. I cannot understand math equations. I failed algebra 1B. Also, I was not trying to go off topic, with Tesla, I was just making the statement of why I do not support the scientific model 100%. I believe it to be controlled...

Bandersnatch...as you can see, I just joined. I'm no scientist at all. I'm just very curious and wanted to learn. Please understand, and help out, if you will. I don't mean to sound redundant, but I'm scientifically "stupid". I admit.

But dozens of scientists will tell you free energy is impossible according to known physics, yet Nikola Tesla proved them all wrong over a 100 years ago, so I do not take scientific method for fact. I prefer an explanation that makes common sense to me.

okay then, (Bandersnatch), what causes a planet to reflect light? Seriously, not trying to egg anyone on. I have no scientific background just a curious mind. AND, this just means the light was strong enough (close enough) to illuminate the cat, but if I were near the cat and the room which...

Please explain this to me. A planet is not emitting light, right, only defecting it, correct? Why would a planet like Jupiter reflect so much light as to make it appear as a star? How come some planets light up completely from the supposed reflection, but other bodies do not? I am no scientist...
