The Universe evacuated down to zero inches of vacuum with particles and Matter that can be charged and un-charged in this type of space. ( The Birth of Creation ) Engineered and designed by God himself.. I believe God created the Universe, because of the way the universe works. It's a too perfect engineered design to just have happened by chance...

Is it possible to measure this distance using only the knowledge about the Earth, such as time, equator length, etc?

The deadline of 2019 was set by George Bush senior in the early 90's, are they still sticking to this and is it feasible.

If you think about the universe long enough, and how it's infinite and super-massive, don't you just want to **** your pants to feel that warm mushyness that reassures you that you are actually still in existence?

Do scientists or artists have a more open mind?
I recently posted a question about whether people believe I live with invisible alien beings from another dimension (which I do). I asked the question in the Astronomy section and one in Arts and humanities. Is it left brain vs right brain? I got different results. The question was worded slightly different. Still, the scientists were much more skeptical I think. Chemistry, for instance, is a perfect science that can not go outside the boundaries. I would think astronomers would be more open minded although they tend to deal more with math. Artists, writers are more open to imagination and so the idea that it could exist may be more readily accepted. Scientists, for example, can not accept that the amount of time it would take at light speed to reach Earth. In another dimension, it would be possible. Who would be more willing to accept this theory? What are your thoughts

Do a Google search using

mars close approach

The 2nd top entry returned is:

Mars and Earth pass closer to each other than at any time during the last 60000 years.
news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3184157.stm - 36k - 26 Aug 2006

It is wrong because when you click that entry and look at the date of the report at the very top, it is Aug 27 2003.

The BBC have left this report hanging on Cyberspace and kids surfing have found it and assumed, very easily from the title, that is is this year.

All the other misinformation has just ballooned out of this as the kids have emailed their friends, who have emailed their friends, and so on until millions of gullible people have believed it to be true.

If any of the people who have suddenly, inexplicably, gotten an interest in Mars had a real interest, they would have got hold of a book on Mars, or researched some more on the internet, and learned enough in five minutes reading to know that this was misinformation.

I'm fond of spaceships ok, I quite like the 'Sulaco' in Aliens but it would be pretty slow, and the Iain Banks 'culture' ones are great too

If I had a beam or a rod 100 billion miles long, attached to a planet as the pivot point, when I turn my very long rod, isn't the long end going to zip through space much faster than the speed of light?

Example: If I could attach a 100 billion mile long rod to my hand as I sweep my hand across the sky at night, isn't the long end moving faster than the speed of light, since my very long hand is covering these massive distances?

If surface area of the world is A, and the solar energy per unit of surface are is B, could humans ever harness more energy than AB?
What I mean is, though solar energy seems an infinite, really, we could only get as much as hits earth. Right?

Jupiter is still a planet even though its massively bigger than all others. Anyone else surprised at the demotion of Pluto? I thought they were going to go the other way and increase the number of planets!
