From: Archimedes Plutonium on 19 May 2010 01:14 Today I received the prism in the mail and tried it out tonight. Although I was a bit tired since working on transplanting alot of trees and bushes today. So I was not really into much observing. What I did find is that the prism is altogether different from the fiberglass. I would not even include this experiment if it were a prism alone. It was difficult to even notice a redshift of oncoming white headlights. I still do not know if there was a redshift in the prism of oncoming white headlights. With the fiberglass, you cannot miss seeing a huge redshift. So I wonder if it is a mix of refraction and scattering in the fiberglass? I also wonder if the tint in the fiberglass plays a huge role. And I wonder about the serendipity of this whole experiment. The luck of buying a fiberglass shed greenhouse that is not durable against the wind and then me bringing it into the house to use as window seconds and thence noticing at night the redshift of distant car traffic. So what is the chances of this happening that I get the proper and correct factors of fiberglass refraction with scattering and the proper tint that is the equivalent of a Cosmic redshift? What I noticed tonight was the white headlights a bit blurred by the prism but no redshift of notice. It is rather difficult to see the image in the prism of the white headlight, so alot of adjusting of my view through the prism. I will repeat the experiment tomorrow, weather permitting. My evaluation is that this is solely a fiberglass experiment and the prism does not add much.
