Hypersonic sky hooks never made any sense to me, how do you keep a rotation body up there if you're using up some of it's momentum to take additional space ships up? I've been following space elevators for nearly a decade and the physics for how that's a sustainable system has always been straight f...

just aditional ancillary articles that came along with the spin ice magnetic monopoles.

Given the triviality of photoshop, even pics aren't that big of guarantor. Really though, you could jump and down and shout treason every time a president signs a treaty, any time you do that you cede a little bit of autonomy away. You can't do whatever you want in a neighborhood, you gotta respect ...

2 days notice? I'd almost say it can't be done. But not doing the math, i don't know for sure.

You best not be disrespecting the immortal element, Chris, it'll last longer than all but 3 elements.

Had me pretty excited there, but no, it's theoretical paper, not a declaration of discovery. Neat idea though.

Excellent troll, 10/10, would be trolled again.

There's also the similarity humans have with everything on the planet, i mean, we have a very non-zero % genetic overlap with everything that has a vertebrae on the planet. Let alone mammals.

You should read Larry Niven's Protector series. It postulates that the human race is still descended from homo habalis, but homo habalis is actually an alien species from near the center of the galaxy. They have a more involved life cycle than we do, starting with grub babies much like our own, and ...

Indeed, could just as easily find some self described conservative or republican that thinks blacks are inherently dumber or the rich more fit to rule due to a mandate of heaven. Cherry picking is easy simon.

So there's an energy Symposium taking place at the University of Iowa next weekend, and I think I'll go. I'd like to make some pamphlets and raise some awareness about the polywell, I'd obviously require some graphics that describe the field line behavior and some catchy numbers concerning fuel rate...

Oh that's bull and you know it, if scientists had their way the knowledge would be distributed freely. No high alter at all.

Reading that paragraph and interpreting "observable optical effects" to mean "loads" you're suggesting that this article provides support for viability of the electron cloud in the center of a polywell?

Heck, I was expecting a link to something like this Air Borne Windmills Nifty business.

No, Msimon is saying it would accellerate off of earths surface at 1 m/s^2, as in it is lifting off of it's own power. That would be a best case scenario, but even if it doesn't happen, any ejection-less thruster would mean "indefinite" in space acceleration which means you could get up a pretty hea...
