Starship Asterisk*

What is it that exists that does not collapse? - NOTHING!!
The Universe and all that is in it and everything that is beyond it.
ALL will collapse at some point.
Each in its own way, as its day ends.

That is how what is - gives way to something better.

Wow!! i found an Apod picture that i am a part of, but at the time the computer was'nt letting me be me and i missed it.

I look pretty good in there - don't I

Well, i see my ignorance of things has shown through again. Some how it slipped my mind that thats normal to keep track of how many posts one has.

One of these days i just may get used to computers --- Not like them - just get used to them. Maybe

Wait a minute--------NOW they have all changed to #36. That means that when i post this one they will all change to #37. Gadzooks

hey guys; Either i have something wierd going on with my eyes - or there's something wrong with this computer. My last three posts on this page are all #35, and if this one also comes out #35 that will make 4 # 35's on this page alone. I don't know how to tell moderators, as the PM has'nt yet worked...

Ah, ok - thanks again Chris.

Thanks Chris. Do you think i will be contacted about it to get a judgement on how far i missed the mark? I also had listed steps for energy conversion from strings to molecules, which would have seemed to be alright because it would pertain to space as well as everything else. As for drugs, i don't ...

Hi Quigley;
You must still be "down under". Its harder to see there's two from that position. You have to change your viewing angle a bit. G'Day Mate.

Dougettinger; That was neufer's reply to a post i did right before his reply. Then, after you replied to his reply to my post, I replied to neufer's reply, right after your reply to his reply to my post. This must have upset the computer because a while later my reply (which was sitting in the spot ...

Owlice; thanks for the extra pictures from Adam. You're a real nice "HOOT".

Bystander --- If you see this, I've posted 2 problems in the Bugs and Problems forum and now i can add a third one---the PM does not seem to work right.

Thank you.

Hi guys; I'm not quite sure if i'm doing this right, but i have 2 problems. #1--my computer clock is 15 minutes off from what my time actually is. #2--A post of mine disappeared. It was posted on the 2nd page of >in what nebula was our sun formed< on >wed may 19 2010< right after a post by dougettin...

Hey Adam
WOW! the picture you provided actually has a gas jet showing!!
On the Apod one all i could see was a little yellow straight line at 1 o'clock that barely went beyond the yellow center.
I score that ---- Apod= 1/2..................Adam=1

Adam WINS!! YEA-RAH-RAH--HOORAY!!!!

neufer; your nice picture does look like it has at least 2 yellow -somethings- living in it. Talk about going Green! It took me a little while to see the gas jet from the center of M87. I had to put my monitor up to 150% and wear 2x glasses before it showed up. Its nice that there are a lot of space...

HEY! is'nt that last photo of neufer's showing a phone booth like Superman used to use to change in??

Also - those "peck" marks on the cave drawings - could they denote the people seen as having sparkling suits, as in space suits??
Sounds rather copacetic to me

Who - who -- Owlice? -- No --- tis the Dr. He thinks.

Whim contains about half the matter in the universe and its hot?? What happened to the tempreture of space being down to about absolute zero?? It looks like its a good thing there is all that cold to counteract all that hottness, or we would have been "well done" a long time ago. Also, its...

From the inner space of a cave to the outer space of the universe. THATS quite a big step - for ANY kind !!

Whats with the really big mean looking green smilie face?

That first picture is Not a rocket boat. Its the nozzle end of another hose going to the Gulf to suck up oil

Sarcasm Detector Hoovers

Yet again i seem to have run into a never ending story

Perhaps later

I have found that most space photos are magnificent. However, due to much better equipment that sees much more detail, i find that most of the pictures do not match the old names anymore. This picture being of no exception. To me this picture of the Tarantula Nebula looks more like something the Tar...

Now that i have found out how orbiting bodies and gravity work, i can interject my 3c worth about Clint Eastwood. I first saw Clint Eastwood in a brand new western called "RAWHIDE". I remember reading or hearing about a month later that after the second show there was such a demand for mor...

I'm trying to figure out how three really heavy stars managed to throw a heavy star out of the place where it was formed. It would seem to be 'normal' to assume that the gravity from the three really heavy stars would tend to pull the heavy star into their midst. Either these three really heavy star...
