Hey! I have a hard enough time getting a girlfriend .. not need for any help.

Ancient Channels Near Mawrth Vallis North is up and the features are located near 26.2°N, 18.5°W. http://www.planetary.org/image/P07_003630_2049_XN_24N018W_P04_002641_2046_XN_24N017W_60_lg.jpg <<These dark-floored, ancient channels cut through light-toned, layered bedrock near Mawrth Vallis.

How long is the long haired, sleeping gnome just above the mid point of the left border going to sleep?

Darn you, Charlie Brown, stealing Lucy away from me! http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/

the risk of driving you even more crazy As you are aware, I ride slowly on substantial wheels and tires, so the risk of being driven crazy is more easily avoided than if flying on rollerblades, for instance, although, all things being relative, my riding is flying compared to canoeing, so the risk ...

I doubt that either man believed in energy being created. Your suggestion that an expanding universe somehow requires that doesn't seem to be shared by other physicists.

I doubt that energy not being created is not a possibility .. notice that I included doubt in that doubt.

G'day from the land of ozzzz I would go on a trail ride with anybody, even Lillith. This link maybe of interest Problems of practical cosmology. http://ppc08.astro.spbu.ru/text_proc.html Would have been nice to have been there. St. Petersburg .. the new top travel destination for Europe, as I am le...

The article says the Delta V to Phobos, land, and return is 80% that of a earth to our Moon and return .. so it must be much higher to land on Mars and return. A huge advantage of operating Mars rovers from Phobos is far less time delay (20 minutes Mars-earth). Ah, but they don't tell you the delta...

G'day from the land of ozzzz Aris I fully agree with you. This does not mean we do not give aid to fellow MAN who we sometimes find on the side of the road. The best place to grow from is when you have lost all and your friends and relatives do not want to do business with you. I hope you have not ...

Your t=0 strikes me as no time, so no 'now'. Not at all. Since time specifies intervals (an isolated point of time is meaningless), and since time flows at a constant rate (the interval between t=0 and t=1 is exactly the same as the interval between t=5 and t=6), the choice of reference value is ar...

ari, I see that makc answered your question several minutes before I managed to post mine, so now you have two answers. Yes, and Makc and I are in pleasant and private discussion about it also .. and I have some enlightenment, but disagree with you Jim that what is not observed does not belong in P...

G'day Aris Is ther more? There is always more. Plasma properties. Double layer Look it up. And see the link on The origins of jet formation. Look at the mechanisms involved in jet formation. I think I posted this before Mechanism for astrophysical jets arXiv http://arxiv.org/find/all/1/all:+AND+jet...

My understanding of the word universe, according to definitions, is all the physcical matter that exists anywhere .. so, as I believe groups of galaxies are generally increasing in their distance from each other, except those groups drawing closer to each o5her, that the universe is expanding. Howev...

Down under we do not worry about posture.

No, that did not sound right.

Funny Ha Ha I laughed.

When the Soyuz spacecraft docks with the ISS on 5/29/09, the ISS will have a crew of 6 for Expedition 20 and all those after. When STS-127 Endeavor flies, scheduled for 6/13/09, it will have a crew of 7. When that happens, will that be the most humans ever in space at one time? Amazing, when you th...

A discussion with Chris on finding the centre of the universe caused me to consider that 'Now' multiplied by Infinity = Eternal Now. That appears to be a meaningless observation, both mathematically (nothing can be multiplied by "infinity") and physically. Is there a math symbol for 'Now'...

Excellent Astro - I like you >t<

'Now' multiplied by Infinity = Eternal Now. what fine example of scientific logic. Yes .. appearing too simple to even mention perhaps .. but if 'now' is finite moment, which it is said by some thinkers to be, envisioned as digital existance by some people, then the equation becomes necessary, and ...

More man made hot water coming .. By 2030 China plans on having 130 nuke plants operating. What is India planning?

Lillith may or may not be any more mythical than Adam or Eve. I read that Adam had a first wife, Lillith who was literally an Angel with wings. But Adam didn't like her for long because she was uncontrollable (she wouldn't do everything Adam asked). So Eve was then made from Adams rib to be his mat...

I'll grunt and swallow my pride and admit the June/09 'Discover' article did not say the Russians are at this time in the drawing of blueprints stage for a manned Phobos base. 'Russia's Back Door To Mars'. However, the article does say Grunt is seen as a step towards a manned base on Phobos, and ev...

A discussion with Chris on finding the centre of the universe caused me to consider that 'Now' multiplied by Infinity = Eternal Now. Is there a math symbol for 'Now' used in math like or unlike Calculus? Is this worthy of consideration in discussions of time and distance? Is the Eternal Now a key to...

Sorry, the endothermic increase is the Earth system is caused by particulates and IR absorbing compounds in the atmosphere. Do the math,(or argue the math). 1,366 watts/ m^2/day hitting the Earth against the 12 terrawatts/day used by humans (90+ % created by fossil fuels @ 20% efficiency) 20% effic...
