I was looking at that Selene footage too, and hoping to see Apollo leftovers.


And i am wondering why so many motors on that huge space x thing, why not use the trusty F1 engines from the Saturn 5, it only took 5 of those to get that thing off the ground.

Explained in the video. Redundancy.

4 to lift, 2 to land. Only 1 is needed to land, the other is for redundancy.

130 million light years away, and we detected the gravity ripples. Just wow.



I've changed my mind and decided that I don't want to merge with machines now, I don't want to extend consciousness beyond this body unless it is truly unbound to the physical realm. Life is a fleeting and precious thing that we should savor every day of, I'm not so sure that infinite length of consciousness is a good thing. Back to the oldest religions, where being a good little boy gets us off the circle of life. Quite the opposite of todays religions where there is an eternity of afterlife for good people. Sounds repetitive at this point

Yeah in this case it are actually fair to say it is indeed old news.

I also forfeit on merging with machine, for the fear of running into Sheldon Cooper.

I would only merge if I'm the first. The likelihood of being destroyed or surpassed as botbrain #2 is high.

I have pulled a Sheldon Cooper, not towards dark matter but dark energy are quite interesting, are there actually a pushing form of gravity opposing the pulling gravity we all know.

Looking towards Cern and the Alpha lab for answers.

Since we have been experimenting successfully with quantum information transfer, soon we will have instant knowledge of the probe information instead of having to wait much time for the data to return. Exciting times!
