I'll teach you some physics.

An "idealized black body" is also known as a "perfect black body" and is merely a theoretical limit, like absolute zero as a temperture; it does not exist in reality. We still have temperatures in nature though, and none of them are absolute zero. Similarly, all bodies, including the earth, and baseballs, and carbon atoms, and patio furniture are black bodies, and none of them are perfect black bodies.

Once again, there are no "perfect" or "idealized" black bodies because they are purely theoretical limits. All bodies in nature are comprised of matter and are just plain ol' ordinary black bodies.

Stefan-Boltzmann applies to all bodies. Stefan-Boltzmann applies to all matter, always, everywhere.

Now that you have been made aware, do you still deny this? Do you need to claim that physics somehow does not apply to earth?

Venus doesn't tectonic plates to drive the CO2 underground. Volcanoes emitted a lot of CO2 (greenhouse gas) into the atmosphere. That resulted in the atmosphere retaining heat and the temp going to 800 degrees F or higher.

This confusion is common. The ideal black body is a reference point, not the law itself. It is the point where emissivity is 100%. There is no such thing as an ideal black body in the real world. There is also no such thing as an ideal white body (where emissivity = 0%) in the world either.

All real bodies are gray bodies (where emissivity is less than 100% and greater than 0%).

You are attempting to eliminate the emissivity constant from the equation, thus denying the law.

What happened to Venus?

Nope. Venus has always been like that. It's atmosphere is 900 times the pressure of Earth's atmosphere at the surface. It is quite a bit easier for that much atmosphere to absorb heat from the surface. Thicker atmospheres are generally hotter. See the temperatures at Death Valley, CA.

The planet is also closer to the Sun.

Heat is simply the flow of thermal energy from one place to another. It is not thermal energy itself. It like a current in a river. It is not the water itself, it is the movement of the water.

You can't hold it, or trap it. You can only reduce it or increase it. If you dam a river, you are not holding current, you have reduced it to a lower value (at least until the water works its way around the dam
).

CO2 is actually a better conductor of heat than most other gases in the atmosphere. It is not a thermal insulator. Metals are good conductors also. That's why it's so easy to pass thermal energy into a water jacket around the cylinder of a car. That water can then carry that thermal energy away from the cylinder more efficiently than air can. Some high power CPUs are also starting to use liquid cooling (using water, sometimes colored to make it look cool
).

It is also not possible to store thermal energy. There is always heat. Hot things are always heating cold things.

Thermal insulators, like blankets, work by reducing heat. They decouple the hot (you) and the cold (the night air). They still conduct heat, but just not as well.

Blankets and coats work on people because they are generating thermal energy from the food they eat. Putting a blanket or a coat on a rock does not make the rock warmer.

It's fixed. It was a simple problem (it once hit Toyota!) and it is fixed. It is currently undergoing final flight testing. Hopefully, airlines will be able to fly them again by August or so.

This bug is the result of a stupid design by Boeing, and driven by stupid marketing departments in Boeing. In Toyota's case, it was simply stupid design. It is the result of using a single sensor for a critical input. Not smart.

A 2nd sensor has been added, and optional warning and shutoff systems are now required standard equipment. The aircraft uses this system during initial takeoff and climb out. Once at altitude, the system is shut off since it's not needed.

Sympathy to the victims of the 737Max but back to global warming.
Your last post sounds like the slowing of flux (slowing of heat). That's what i've been claiming.
Even if you consider CO2 a good conductor, it is conducting heat both back to earth and out to outer space.
The back to earth component brings about the time delay. During that delay, back at the ranch, more heat from the sun is pouring in to earth, warming it up, melting the ice, etc.
Is your office on Boeing field? I guess it's none of my business.

It bothers me too. I didn't realize Boeing was programming their systems this way.

The stupid part of this is that a 2nd sensor already exists on the aircraft, but they weren't using it.

Now they are.

There is no 'switch' per se for sensor disagreement. This is a test the software makes, though, and if a disagreement is noted between the sensors, the system shuts off and warns the pilot of the failure. In that event, the aircraft can complete it's flight (with a bit of extra work from the pilots), but once landed cannot take off again until the problem is corrected by mechanics.

The sensors are simple in construction, and can easily be repaired by any aircraft mechanic.

No. You cannot heat a warmer thing with a colder thing. The surface is warmer than the atmosphere, including the CO2.

There is no sequence. You cannot suspend the 2nd law of thermodynamics for even a moment of time. You cannot heat a warmer surface using a colder gas.

Boeing itself in the Seattle area is scattered all over the place. They are not my only customer either. I did not build the sensors that were misused on the MAX. I do have sensors on that aircraft though. They are in the fuel system.
