April 8, 201610 yr I can't stop watching it. Seriously - the landing is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen!
April 8, 201610 yr NASA posted a picture this week of a shuttle hurtling through the clouds It was skill Can someone more proactive than me post the pic please? This one? Not sure who took it like! Edited April 8, 201610 yr by fatolive
April 13, 201610 yr http://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/1935511/giant-leap-mankind-alpha-centauri-stephen-hawking-announces-plan we're off to Alpha Centauri as a reminder as to just how massive everything is, it's our nearest "neighbour" in terms of star systems but it's still 40 trillion km away, and would normally take 30,000 years to get there but with these new nano crafts it should only take 20 then another 4 to beam back pictures
April 13, 201610 yr Will it just be a fly by though? How does it slow down when it gets there? Hope it doesn't run aground, like Costa Concordia
April 13, 201610 yr Will it just be a fly by though? How does it slow down when it gets there? As its another star system like ours and presumably massive I doubt it would need to slow down and effetively the whole thing is a fly by, or more a fly through, taking "close ups" of the star and however many of the planets orbiting around it

If it's flying at 20% light speed how will it take pictures? And more importantly - how long will it take for us to get the data back? Edit - just read it would take 4 years to get the data back - although it's being questioned whether it would have the capacity to send a signal which could be picked up over such a ridiculously long distance! Amazing concept though...... Edited April 13, 201610 yr by kent_white
April 13, 201610 yr When we realise we're not alone, humanity will unite against war, poverty, famine and Cliff Richard.
April 14, 201610 yr Will it find us a decent striker? We have one in Alex Samuzadeh, the finest Iranian prospect we have had since Andranik.
April 14, 201610 yr We have one in Alex Samuzadeh, the finest Iranian prospect we have had since Andranik. Well in that case the probe is a waste of money and they should give it all to Deano instead
April 14, 201610 yr We have one in Alex Samuzadeh, the finest Iranian prospect we have had since Andranik. You've obviously not seen Henri Loyd do a half marathon.
April 14, 201610 yr Will it find us a decent striker? By all accounts there's someone banging them in for fun in Neptune's U21s. Having 4 legs probably helps. Booted off recently in the Neptune Moon's Premier league when lowly Nereid played away at Triton. Those cunts always punch above their weight - which is maybe no surprise as they weigh a lot more on Triton than they do on Nereid.

April 14, 201610 yr hes still playing in the second division in NL he wears number 2, so i can only imagine lennon planned to stick him in the right back queue
