It is completely impossible to capture details like this if a star was 25 trillion miles away, with 125x magnification.
Dude, you've been lied to all along about stars, and I'm showing you the reality, so you understand what slimeball liars they all are. I hope you stand up for what you now know to be true, just as I do.

Here's what Saturn really looks like...

They claim the closest Saturn is to Earth at any time is 746 million miles away, which is utter nonsense once again.
A camera with 125x magnification could never see the ring - or two rings - of Saturn if it was 746 million miles away. Impossible.
Do you see how Saturn and its ring(s) are spinning like a top?

That star is out of focus.

So, instead of believing in our eyes and in what astronomers have been saying for centuries we should believe some person on the Internet just because they say so.
I'll think about your case.

I think you need to learn something about optics.

No.

Have you ever seen what Mars really looks like before?
Take a look...

Anyone can film all this themselves, if they wish to prove it first hand.
NASA is nothing but a bunch of bs'er, that's for sure.

I do believe in my eyes, it's the astronomers that are lying here.
If the only excuse you have is that it's out of focus, look at the last clip I posted, and tell me about it...

If you want to stay in denial, go right ahead.
I prefer the reality I see with my own eyes, If you prefer to believe in NASA's CGI, and airbrushed fakes, that's fine with me.

I do believe my eyes too, but I don't believe some person on the Internet that does not provide real evidence, only proof that they know nothing about optics, photography and astronomy.

No, I said that star is out of focus, you shouldn't consider all videos as having the same characteristics, considering they were made on different occasions, with different cameras and different lens and atmospheric conditions.
And yes, I saw the videos you posted, that's why I know you posted the Mars video twice.

So please tell me how we see details on stars that are 25 trillion miles away....
If you don't believe any of the many independent, public videos that show the exact same details on stars that are supposedly 25 trillion miles away, then get one of the same cameras and see for yourself.
I know you only believe in NASA, and astronomers, who never show you any stars like this, so go find the truth for yourself, if you really want to know the truth, that is..
You can also see this shimmer when you look at distant cars on a hot road.

I don't need to do it because I know what they show, atmospheric shimmer, something that has been known by astronomers for many years before NASA existed.

What details are you talking about?
Seriously man, we don't "see" details on any star other than Earth's very own star; the "Sun". Every other star is just a small spot of light, with various properties...you know like; position, distance, color spectrum, etc.
And, I guess I'll address that "Atmospheric Shimmer" thing here. It is very real, as other have pointed out.
A few years ago I was working on a Robotic Telescope project. And atmospheric shimmer was an issue I had to address as it is a serious issue with all planet based optical telescopes. The solution I used, since lasers weren't an option, was to measure the magnitude of a specific star, and always the same star, several times over an observation session (night), then use that data to compensate the "magnitude" (brightness) of an image. These values were usually smaller than could be perceived by the Human eye. So, while the observer might not see these small changes the computer did, and could therefore return better results (more accurate) when observing any other given star.
What y'all need to understand is that ALL of this is the commonly accepted reality by ALL Astronomers, Astrophysicists, both professional and amateur. It also has nothing to do with any government agency.
