Build giant nuclear powered air conditioners. Put them on rockets and get them into a low earth orbit. Use the cold temps of space to cool the air.

We would launch some number of them say 30 or 40, place them at various points around the globe to cool the atmosphere.

It would work!

Does anyone know the sizes of the human heart, a large molecule (e.g. protein) and a small molecule (e.g. amino acid)? I've been looking on the internet for ages and i can't seem to find how large they are.

Thanks

What I'm thinking is no fossil could possibly survive that long. With rates of erosion, volcanoes, earthquakes shaking them violently hundreds, maybe thousands of times over that time period no fossil could survive that long. Maybe I'm wrong but how could anything that long ago even a fossil stay in tact until now.

Have rabbits ever been able to lay eggs? I saw a documentary on the BBC that claimed that the origins of the Easter Bunny are based on sound biological and scientific fact. Evidently rabbits laid eggs with very colourful and decorative shells during Shakespearian times. Archaeologists are unsure if they were actually filled with chocolate. Surely this can't be true?

Or is all of science now doomed because he was no wrong about the speed of light?
Or is more likely with the new information we learn from it modify our standing of things which to me is true science or am I wrong?

I saw the pic of this guy carrying around his "pet" lobster. Lobsters come out of the ocean and must breathe with gills or something, right? So how can they breathe water AND air?

Over the last few days I've been watching seven snapping turtle eggs hatch. The two oldest have lost there yolk sacs and umbilicals but won't eat above or below water. I've given them worms, pieces of raw shrimp and pet store turtle food. Any ideas? RScott

Ok. it's a crazy question, but if we see right now the past of the galaxies and stars when we look at space. and if we look farther out, we can see how galaxies and stars where millions of years ago, this means that the farther we see the older the images are.

is it possible that if we see far far beyond that, can we see the big bang in proccess? i mean can we actually see the hole mass and energy that existed before the big bang explotion?

do i made myself clear? .. i mean imagine that we have the most powerfull telescope that could see as far as the last remaining star of the universe and we pointed directly to the center of the universe, what would we see? if the universe is 13.7billions years old and our telescope would reach that distance what would we see then?
