Comment Europa! (Score 0) 79

Fuck Mars! The moon makes a good jumping off point, and Mars a good checkpoint,
but NASA funding has been dwindling and they're already doing everything BUT dropping
shit on Europa. /rant

Seriously though, we've got a SCIENCE TANK on Mars... for old riverbeds and regolith.

Onward!

Question: How in the hell do you capture something at 41,411,976 mph?

As i'm to understand it, even if the Oort Cloud is incredibly dense by our estimates,
there's still going to be a slim chance of interacting with anything sizeable to mine, let alone just happen to match our velocity.
Dreaming big though.

You take a few puffs and you're high, maybe you take only one, but you're high just the same.

Through years of dealing with marijuana users (and having been one myself), I've not seen it to be
about the amount, but rather the quality. I've been amongst those to smoke for hours consecutively, and never get
as high as i was up until the first contact set in.

I have no links, anyone chime in here, these are my own
personal experiences.

I believe measuring this will be difficult, aside from looking for how red/closed/open the
individuals eyes are, yet different strains produce different affects...

IANAPP, but have been a = average musician for a while, and from what i gather from TFA, they're creating a resonance that "maximizes the loss of electrons in a sample". It looks to me as if they've found a "harmonic" frequency for a given Element, that can either be used to coerce electrons out, or avoid as they need. I used all those words broadly, i'm just trying to picture it. The idea of Quanta is something that has always had me going in circles. Max Planck Ftw.
