AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on whether body mass affects the number of stars an observer can see. Key points include the assertion that factors like light pollution and accessibility to dark sky locations are more significant than the observer's body size. The conversation suggests that the ability to view stars is influenced more by environmental conditions than by the observer's physical attributes. Ultimately, the mass of the observer does not play a crucial role in star visibility. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of location and light conditions over body mass in astronomical observations.

Does a fat guy see more stars than a skinny guy?

Or in other words, is the size of the Universe, a mass dependent variable, dependent on the mass of the observer?

Interesting question.

My personal feeling on this crucial topic is that light pollution and the feasibility to transport the fat/skinny observer to excellent dark sky sites, is more decisive than the actual adipose tissue.
