Space exploration is by its nature highly speculative. Are the risks better assessed by a private sector that seeks a return for its investment?

Does the Earth's orbit change? If so, how? Can this effect electronic equipment? I had some problems with a CD recorder (stereo component) last night in which the recorder wouldn't start up properly- like reading a CD that wasn't in the tray and displaying a message- 'reading' but it just hung there. Also, the trays would not open.
A couple friends of mine blame it on electro-magnetic fields due to the earth's orbit changing. I personally think it's on the fritz and probably needs to be fixed, but I always try to consider all possibilities. So could they be correct? I turned on the recorder this morning and it did work properly!!!!! What's up with that?

For instance, if I fix a magnet to the under side of something metel, it will be held in place by the magnetic field. Over time the magnet must loose strength as it is doing work to hold the magnet in place. How long would it take for the magnet to loose enough power, so that it could no long hold it's up, and fall off?

When decelerating, during flight, from a fast cruise speed toward a slow approach speed, I notice that as the rate of decrease in speed constantly increases, the sensation is one of deceleration. But once the rate of deceleration is stabilized, constant, and unchanging, the sensation becomes one of hanging there presumably at a steady speed - there is no perception of deceleration (or even of speed for that matter) even though still decelerating. Even more deceptive, if slight control changes are made which cause a constantly decreasing rate of deceleration, the sensation becomes one of acceleration even though the aircraft is still decelerating (but at a decreasing change in the rate of the decreasing change of speed). Why is that?

I knew once, but I forgot. Is it something like 1.44? It's been refered to as God's number. Can't remember, but by continiously deviding one number of the Fibbonacci sequence into the next one (or the other way around) you would get closer and closer to this number the more you do it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Don't tell me it's pi, because that's not what I'm talking about.

Kepler's third law states that the square of the orbital perod is equal to the cube of the semi major axis of the orbit.

I have difficulty understanding this could some one please break it down in simpler terms so I can understand it better?
