You need three mentors to publish and academics are too terrified of being cancelled to risk looking at anything without a 'big name' and 'big school' attached to it.
That is simply untrue. Papers are accepted for publication by reputable science journals all the time without big names or big schools attached to them. You are making this up.
You are so full of shit brah.
So how many scientific papers have you tried to publish?
All 'reputable science journals' require three vetted academics with PhDs in the field the paper addresses. They must officially agree to review your paper prior to publication. That is why it is called peer reviewed. But academics will not touch papers from unknowns for career reasons. If you cannot come up with three PhD caliber academic reviewers in astrophysics no journal will even look at an astrophysics paper. I contacted probably 20 astrophysicists. The only response I got was a warning from one of them that he would sue me if I tried to associate his name with my work. I could for sure publish in garbage journals that publish crap for money, but I don't go there.
Try having an original idea instead of spewing your Astronomy 101 BS.
So fuck off.
