I am trying to determine which geometric solids might best be used in an experimental housing design. I would like the shapes to be able to join together and completely fill space, yet have workable flooring, or almost fill space with cubes left between.

Charles Darwin told us in his 'Origin of Species' that species are highly subjective things. This runs contrary to the discoveries of Mendel and genetics. Does the evidence from science not show, instead, that a given species can exist in many morphological forms ? In such a case why is such a highly subjective argument as that used by Darwin used as 'evidence' of so-called speciation ? We could just as well interpret this evidence as the effects of reversing mutations, could we not ?

I was thinking about this and thought about the feelings of deja vu that you get about certain things.......i admit to know nothing about this but being aware of something before it has happened may well be a speed of light experience....we do not fully understand the complexity of the mind...but we are capable of complex thought and function...our cells communicate at phenomenal speeds,... so who is not to say that this may well be a start on discovering a way of travel.... it sounds bizarre even to me thinking of a way of constructing a theory of travelling at speed from measuring a feeling but....why not....

I live one street away from a regional airport and small jets take off over my house every day. I've always been a little nervous about this as most small jet crashes are on takeoff, not on landing. The airport has altitude restrictions on takeoff, but I'm wondering if the pilots are adhering to those policies as they seem a lot lower to me. I was trying to figure out how I can tell how high they are when they pass over my house but can't find anything on the web or on here to help me figure it out. Can anyone help me with this?

Besides issues with weight payload and international treaties.
Furthermore, why can't we harvest them for resources?

I know it is "morally wrong" but I don't know why.
Any views pro or con.

First of all i am sure the moon landing happened. MY question is, why do so many people use the argument like "if technology is so much better now, why dont we go up to the moon all the time" or how could they go up to the moon when they didnt even have color television in most of the country. Don't people understand that some fields are easier than others? What does cellphone tech have to do with firing rockets?

In 1969, The USA managed to get a spacecraft into space, land on the moon and take off again and land back on Earth safely. They can't even manage to get them into space nowadays. How did that happen?
