To space... would you?
[quote]so many places, so little time[/quote]
Before joining this forum I never realised there are so many! :lol:.

ENOUGH OF THE TALK: MAN NEVER WENT TO THE MOON!!!
Yeah. Mankind didn't land on the moon, because the Freemasons didn't want them to. Also, they were behind the Kennedy assassination, where they hired Bigfoot to shoot from the grassy knoll. After that, aliens replaced Lyndon Johnson, and have been working with the Antichrist ever since from a base in the Bermuda Triangle. Their ultimate goal? To make gasoline more expensive.
Is that about right? :roll:.

is space travel real?
Space travel is real for sure.
-
When do you think travel companies will take us to the moon?
Local airports will probably never manage this, and trips to space for a large sum of money is already avaliable. However it will be more than 50-100 years before space tourism will be widely spread amonst us. I'm guessing in about 500 years..

The aliens are already here!
[quote]Nah! I dont think they exist![/quote]
No space aliens Chibby? Then who exactly is piloting the flying saucers??? :lol:.

Aliens
Filer's Research Institute and Filer's Files is proud to announce the finding of evidence and artifacts that indicate extra-terrestrial intelligent life on Mars. This announcement is not made lightly and is based on multiple images from Mars Rover Spirit's NASA/JPL images..

Space Tourists
Crawl your post is just copied from MANY SITES. Make us a magic trick: DISAPPEAR.
Thank you.

Space elevator: is this the start of cheap space tourism?
I'm not sure why people are even considering space elevators.

I mean really? Why don't you guys just use the Overthruster? I understand that traveling through the 8th dimension can be dangerous with everyone there called John, but quit being such pansies..

UFO?
Um ....this is embarassing. That was me. Thought China would be the last place I'd make the evening news with all the Goverment control over their media.
Next time I'm low on fuel I'm setting down in New Mexico!!!
That sounds like a safe place.
Oh and the ultimate answere to "Nothing" is (drum roll please) "SOMETHING"
ty ty all very much. I'll be here all week. Try the veal.
:lol:.

Impossible
I love the words never and impossible. I totally believe the impossible will never happen. I also believe people assign those words to the wrong staments. "Mankind will never send a man to the moon for a cost of $1"-Not true. "Mankind will never send a man to the moon for a cost of $1 within the next five minutes"-Okay that's probably very true. People tend to look at circumstances based only on present data (not suprising). A better tool for judging the future is not what we can do now but what we want. Imagine in 1880 someone saying we can travel at speeds over 50 mph to get to our destinations across land and someone saying "We will never get horses to move that fast!"
Remember it's never the "how" it's always the "why".
Someone right now, out there someplace is working on an idea that will make the dreams of today tomorrows reality.

Slingatron
Yeeeeaaaaah .....well here's the thing orbital velocity is over 17,000 mph to get to orbit at that speed you have to go faster then that to overcome drag due to air and Earths gravity So were moving at say 20,000 mph in a circular path smaller than oh let's say the continental U.S. once we reach the center inertia has turned us into liquid (think of the force you feel when your car turns a corner ...then multiply that by 2 billion. Also the cost of construction would be billions and billions (Thank you Carl Sagan) and anycraft would reach orbit as a cinder after being burnt up by the atnosphere. :?.

Is Space Travel Something You Would Do?
I don't think I'd ever pay for a three minute weightless experiance (maybe I'd go if it was free) and I really don't want the 24 hour a day zero-g experiance. I would like a simulated gravity (the whole spinning wheel thingy-hope that's not too technical) with pods close to the hub for weightless games and long term experiments.
I imagine it would be nice if spending months working on your zero-g nanite assembley process if you could come "home" after work take a shower, eat recognizable food off a plate and sleep in a real bed. Even if only at 75% simgrav.
BTW The Earth to Orbit cost will be $100,000 perperson..

Space hotel
[quote:3858ec9a90="BobinOz"]Three things before I go a step further in making my reservation. One, what type of credit card can I use in outer space?
Two, Can I bring along my pet frog?
And three, I'm very much sure that there's still enough sands in Vegas before anybody would plan to put up a Space Hotel anywhere in our galaxy. Agree?[/quote:3858ec9a90]
No credit cards in space. Space travel is a strictly a pay up front deal
Yes you can bring your pet frog. But, you should know, those space helmets are really big on a little frog's head.
Agree, once you've been to Planet Hollywood and seen the stars. It's kinda hard to get excited about a passing meteor.
:lol: :lol:.

Photos from space
A dream would be to see things like this for real to be in the ISS and have a good look!.

Star or planet?
Heres a link to the difference between a star and planet: http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/question.php?number=548.

Virgin
I believe after 2010 they have delayed plans due to recession.

Google Shoots for the Moon
I think one day we will have BG(before google) and AG(Anno Google) instead of BC and AD..

space travel for normal folk?
space travel won't possible for common person as Airtravel no matter you are talking about next 20 years or 50 years.
10 Million can never come down to 10K,.

Virgin Space Shuttle
a $1000 a minute is still a rich mans game. Id rather spend a few month on the beach in thailand than spend $5000 for 5 mins in space. I would be that excited that 5 mins would seem like 10 seconds and I wouldnt take anything in. plus people would be pushing you outa the way to get the best view for their money!.
