fruit flies can adapt to stimuli within a few score generations, & Darwin didnt stick around for thousand of years to watch finches , so evolution moves faster than GIT seems to believe ID is revisionist nonsense, the church has made clear its beliefs for thousands of years, but now science & logic ...

a familiar face pops up in the comments

rossi's statements and answers to questions are indistinguishable from a bot, taken at face value, he has flat out lied his ass off from the beginning, his 'demonstrations' have yet to demonstrate the e-cat can even boil an egg without help from the national grid we all kinda hoping for an energy br...

lets start off by assuming it wasnt a missile , or a adrenaline-junkie alien with a badly cloaked ship

http://www.physics.isu.edu/radinf/tritium.htm Some rifles use tritium for in their front sight. They will use about 12 mCi of tritium dissolved in a phosphor liquid contained in a small glass vial. The rifle sights contain 12 mCi of tritium. If all of its activity were ingested, the CEDE would be 76...

fair point, but the mighty dirigible can block out the sun, causing the enemy to flee in disarray

couldn't be less clear, since you never said what subject you dont have a position on

f you aren't keen on flying, airships are a lot better than planes. Sit back , plenty of space, gently getting from a to b. whats not to like? Perhaps you prefer being packed in like a sardine on planes doing million miles between maintenance, while the forces at 500 mph try to tear it apart. Plus t...

love aliens propensity for utilising the queen's english. perhaps sending man to mars is a waste of time , especially given our current technology. In fact, manned exploration of space is in all likelyhood a pointless exercise, given that machines do the same job with less risk. However, as a milest...

now there is talk of sending man to mars, is this a worthwhile goal? or would money be better spent on more probes/landers on other planets in the solar system

Your view is clouded by nostalgia and emotional attachment. I'll play along though: you could be right - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1obwMjzUY9M all those other craft you mention are practically brand new, and unless it lands without a parachute its a capsule, not a spaceship and thus < shuttle ...

so what if the cost overran, name me one large project that hasn't (usually due to stupidly low initial quote to get the job) challenger was 100% nasa managers fault, & columbia down to inattention to detail as far as im concerned, it was awesome, an icon. It went into space and came back , to go in...

Until an actual particle or more of such substance is actually observed, science should simply state that we don't know why there are these observed gravitational forces that do not match the visible matter configuration. Some unknown substance and form of energy we have never observed may be respo...

theres already been talk its not the higgs due to excess signals in some channels

anyone fancy explaining two things to me :

a) why does it decay differently each time anyway

b) if it decays so quickly, how come theres a universal field of it
