I am curious to know the following:- How did the people in the history see the 9 planets in our solar system with naked eyes? How could they judge their sizes and explain their impact on earth? How could people living thousands of years ago visualise paasenger and bomber planes, firing missiles, pressure bombs, drug bombs which either intoxicated the rivals or made them forget war in the war field, chemical weapons which put them into sleep, the science of disappearing, the science of seeing things from distance--a TV and things like that. Go and study the Hindu MYTHOLOGY as we call it, which says everything happening around us today, nearly 5,000-10,000 years ago. Can anyone ever imagine or fantasize so much, I really wonder. There must be something concrete about it, which we have not yet discovered. Anyone has the answer?

I always favoured the idea of manifested thought myself. Whereby when something is expected to the point of belief it exists. It can be applied, with ease, to the entirity of existence and cannot be dissproven.
We will probably never know what happens when everyone believes these surprisingly calculable and applicable laws of physics work in opposite, where flying in space is the norm and it's really hard to stick to planets...
Nine planets?
lol...
Yes, well... isn't it 8 planets, 4 dwarf planets (including pluto now, I believe?) and around 20 planetoids which aren't quite big enough. The only reason why they are there is because we thought about it too much!

We've lost a tremendous amount of scientific knowledge coming out of the Roman Empire. With enough people staring at the sky for long enough, recording information and objectively analyzing it, you are bound to make some pretty darn good hypotheses about what's going on. Even 5000 years ago.
Every so often, we come across a device constructed long before we thought civilization had the ability to construct it. Given that, it's probable there's just some history of the science in that area not yet discovered.
Is that proof they had what we have? No, not really. The suggestion that an ancient civilization was somehow as advanced as ours is unfounded.
Also, the IAU has removed Pluto from the official list of planets (as part of defining what a planet is).
Keen observers study the skies, the earth, the world. Before the advent of scientific equipment, we had scientific equipment. A stick in the Nile became a calendar. Observing planets and distinguishing them from stars is relatively easy if you devote yourself to steady observation and recording data.
Previous people's needs were far different: observing differences and patterns and anomalies meant something. They led to strategies for successful nomadic life, understanding seasons and cycles. We live in an attenuated world now where it's hard to imagine scientific life, daily intelligent life, before the telescope. But we made it here.
