Hello folks. Atlas 5 will be launching astronauts on May 6, 2024 at 10:34 PM EDT. Prayers that the Boeing manufactured manned spacecraft stays in one piece...
So, @essentialsaltes posted a few months ago how the Voyager 1 probe had a computer issue. Now, that issue has been fixed. Seems that the old probe just wants to keep on trucking. And yes, the 22 hours 30 minutes it takes for a signal to reach Voyager 1 are converted into days (0.94 days) for...
This news is slightly old, as three new moons were discovered in 2023, one orbiting Uranus, and two orbiting Neptune. These moons are tiny compared to Earth's moons, but will allow scientists to learn more about how the early solar system formed. @sjastro and @Astrophile might find this stuff...
Hello folks. Space is one of my favorite subjects, and I hope that in the future, humans can return to the Moon or eventually take a round-trip to Mars, after solving societal issues on Earth first. One such societal issue has not been solved: Corporate negligence. There has been recent news...
As this is the only Christian discussion thread I can post in on this site, I am posting here.
I wanted to share my article, of which I have written on the "Ontological Observation of God" for the encouragement of others and to inspire thought.
In this article I break down just "what...
Sure the distances between stars are immense with the nearest one 4.3 light years away, a distance we can't even imagine. What is interesting though is that our galaxy, the Milky Way, is about 100,000 light years in diameter. We're about 1/4 out from its center. The Earth rotates, it revolves...
Hi there,
So this won't help Evolutionists much, at least not at first, because it talks about a limitation on what can change - because of the parameters of the possible changes (that are limited). The point how ever Evolutionists will probably grasp more intensely than Creationists, at first...
The actual video is only about 5 minutes long and it repeats itself. The first half includes the Russian commentary as well as the English subtitles, and the 'replay' omits the sound entirely.
The three most interesting observations are the formation of 'crystal like' features in the dusty...
Zero distance (or zero time interval) is not a distance
at all, but a contact. Therefore, there is the minimum possible distance.
Does Achilles catch up with the Turtle in Zeno's paradox? Yes, if there is a minimum non-zero distance: then the sum of the lengths (as long as Achilles catches up...
I applaud any country or private enterprise that is about advancing the human endeavour for space exploration. Is a country seeking to dominate space a good thing for the human race?
'We must have American dominance in space': Trump launches new military 'Space Force'
Seems weird that they say they want to make contact when they know that contact can bring down on Earth an enemy that mankind could not deal with. Seems pretty stupid.
This question has puzzled mankind for centuries and I bet most of us have looked up at the night sky and thought "Could there be other civilizations on other worlds like ours?"
What are your thoughts on this subject?
P.S. This thread is for a bit of fun, please don't get too serious or have...
Fatherhood
The world has twisted what a father is and with this, we are faced with the ultimate question of; “What came first, the chicken or the egg”? And as with any person born into this world, they at some point in their life will ask another profound and similar question. That is, “What is...
This is a thread posted with the purpose of discussing the moon and its relationship to our Earth. Please strive to keep feedback in harmony with its purpose. Otherwise the thread will be derailed. If indeed you wish to discuss another totally unrelated subject, please post a thread for it in...
Many persons don't really appreciatye just how tremendously distant our Sun really is because it can be so blistering hot on sunmer days. But in reality, what seems to be a fairly nearby sun is actually an almost unimaginably enormous distance away. Here are some examples to illustrate just how...
