Butterflies In Space Station: Butterflies Attempt To Fly In Space And Fail (VIDEO)

“Maybe we might want to actually GO someplace in space; you know; visit another world? Are we spending billions to see that a butterfly gets a little disoriented in zero g? Round and Round the Earth the shuttle goes; where its going; no one knows....”

buddhistMonkey replied on Dec 07, 2009 at 05:58:22

“We don't have the technology yet to "visit another world." To get to Mars would take four months using current propulsion methods, which means you'd have to travel with at least eight months' worth of fuel, which would be prohibitively heavy. And that's just Mars, which, cosmically, is just down the street from Earth. The next closest planet outside of the solar system is 4.5 lightyears away, which would take something like 64,000 years to reach using current technology (and would require 128,000 years' worth of fuel to go and return).

In other words, enjoy the butterfly experiment, because that's all you're going to get for a long while.”

“I am excited however by networked cyborg culture in the way that it can break down some nasty social constructs like race, gender and class. Maybe it will help us reach a global identity and that ever elusive world peace. At least the younger more borgified generations seam to be more accepting of diversity, which is a nice start.”

“I would prefer it to however all this technology we use only mediates our real world connections even further. How many middle men (or middle techs) do we need to say call your mother or accomplish a task? Mentally and physically people are growing more isolated simply because we can.

“Intimidated, no. Concerned, yes. I didn't think it was possible for Bush to win not only once but twice. (OK, Appointed once, elected once.)

Never underestimate the stupidity of the American people, although I would hope at this point she's pretty-much untouchable as a viable option by any Republican at this point. Then again, you have people like Huckabee, who basically mirrors her views on silly things like science and was able to avoid the scrutiny thus far, because after all, he's so seemingly benevolent, right?

We are still in danger of reverting to twin beds and cellophane on the davenport.”

most of the homeless are NOT bums...

they had a downturn on their luck, mentally ill released from hospitals, lost jobs and homes... etc...it's generally NOT a choice "editor"..­. there are probably more "BUMS" living on welfare and food stamps than on the streets...

that was not a bad idea saying that neighborhood might be safer with fed folks opposed to starving folks, but to lump ALL of the homeless into the "BUM" category is simply unfair and wrong...
