You can't see the indentation, because the foot of the craft is still there. That's
my point. Go out to your yard. Clear a space so there's just dirt there. Set a plate down on the ground and look at it. Do you see an indentation? Or do you only see an indentation
once you pick up the frickin' plate?

No magic needed. Vacuum needed. Rocket exhaust needed. No magic needed.

Nobody has argued that a reflector requires human placement, so I'm not sure where you're getting that.
OCCOM BILL wrote:Questioning why something would bounce up in a vacuum has to be the silliest question yet.
Try answering the question.

Are you in the habit of dribbling sand? That's (nearly) the most ridiculous comparison I've ever heard.
