Forcefield technology is still a long way.

 if we can store our personality into android, then we can travel more efficiently without the need of food or natural lifetime, potential diseases, etc.

Just one hundred light years away.

Interesting. Mars and Venus looked very earth like 4 billion years ago.

This is interesting. If this technology evolves even further a space station can just use a nearby planet to power it up.

No need for Dyson Spheres to be around stars or at least there's more options to select from.

why not just harvest energy from hydrogen or helium they are abundant in universe I imagine.

With current technology the energy required to get energy from them is more than teh energy we get from them, IIRC, the only way it kinda works is using solar energy, but it's slooow; like, if they send a probe to mars witha  solar panel to do the H conversion, it will take it a few years to generate enough energy to come back to earth.

Always wondered how VY Canis Majoris and UY Scuti planets in their goldilock zones would look like if there are that is.  :book:

why do solar panel is made flat and not bumpy with mini prism/ pyramid like, next to each other it would have more solar cell within the same dimension, and structurally stronger.

Afaik, costs; some solar power deniers(?) say that building the damn panels pollutes more than just moving to nuclear.

Curious if we can even manipulate it if we can't even touch it that is if it is a particle to begin with.  :book:



For now we'll have to settle for radio wave energy transfers.  :afro:

Anti-String Theory?

I think I've finally understood Owlman's perspective. Everything's just random and pointless.

Damn. This is just so cool. I wonder if one day humanity will be able to look at planets the way our satellites can take pictures of our car's plate number.  :drummer:

That zoom in at the start was some satisfying shit. The cool thing is that it's exactly what we calculated and expected since the last few years. Predicting science out of math is strong.
Veritaserum's video on it just yesterday was spot on and makes it easy to understand what we're actually seeing.

If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.
