  1. Life is just a word maaaaaaaaaaan. Everythings made out of the same thing at the end of the day. Except for bluetac of course, the true origin has never been confirmed.

  2. I dont know what i find more unbelievable. Getting to mars by 2010 or the fact that someone actually listened to something bush said. I doubt we will be on mars by then. I remember someone saying a round trip to mars could take a few years. Thats a lot of fuel, supplies and tiolet paper chaps.

  3. What?

    I dont know a lot about relativity but all I saw in that animation was just some simple maths. Lets just say ClockA is displaying valueA and ClockB is displaying valueB The reason the astronauts got the same average value from the clocks was because when you get further away from say clockA; you are seeing a lower valueA than the other guy who is sat right next to it. But that doesn't matter because when you get further away from clockA, you of coarse get closer to clockB and you will see a higher valueB than the dude who is sitting miles away next to clockA.

     

    I hope that makes sense to someone but its too late and i need some sleep and Im sorry if someone has already explained this earlier on in the thread but I cant be arsed to check right now.

  4. Thats more of a philosophical way of thinking. Fair enough the opposite of death is life but you have to be able to define life before hand to understand what death isn't.

  5. This has been bugging me for a while now, but does anyone know why things look smaller when they are further away? I asked this about a year ago but I wasn't satisfied with the answers I was getting.

     

    Someone told me it has something to do with lenses. but I dont know whether thats true or not.

     

    Does anyone have a decent scientific reason as to why this occurs?
