Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) More crackpot theories about Scientists lying to us about what we know/are told about the Earth. Though this one seems to have had more thought put into it that the "Flat Earthists" have theirs Though I thought it was shown and proved that India was once part of Antartica or something and broke off millions of years ago and joined up with Asia and the forces created there is what helped make Everest as big as it is... and in this guys "idea" India didn't move Edited July 3, 2012 by Mokong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise, sure it's big news and the greatest revelation that has happened in recent times, but I really don't care that much. Isn't it a basically a matter of(pun not intended) of the last guy found in hide and seek? Edited July 6, 2012 by Tales Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn't it a basically a matter of(pun not intended) of the last guy found in hide and seek? It's a big thing for physicists, as it's what gives everything mass. However, there are no real world implications for it. Not until we can make a field that can have an effect on the particle in order to change the mass of something.

Posted July 11, 2012 Mars Panorama This full-circle scene combines 817 images taken by the panoramic camera (Pancam) on NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity. It shows the terrain that surrounded the rover while it was stationary for four months of work during its most recent Martian winter.

Posted November 28, 2012 Hell frakking YEAH. Though I'm still thinking as they have less than 3 years left now they should be working on them hoverboards first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 29, 2012 Reading that article, which sounded like a manual written for a spaceship in a cheesy sci-fi show, and knowing it was real, genuine science, filled me with a geeky joy I can't quite put into words. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2012 Reading that article, which sounded like a manual written for a spaceship in a cheesy sci-fi show, and knowing it was real, genuine science, filled me with a geeky joy I can't quite put into words. I actually heard about that theory first on Futurama. "The engine doesn't move the ship, it causes the universe to move around it! I had the idea during a dream, but then forgot about it in another dream." To think that it was actually true... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 6, 2012 Interesting pictures of Earth at night/in blackness Quite interesting and fascinating i think. Carl Sagan once said (I think it was him, might be mistaken), that this is the first time in the history of the earth, that a spaceship could fly past us, and see from space that there's intelligent life.
