"Explain how if the universe was created by chance, the earth just happened to be the perfect distance from the sun and how its elements are perfectly balanced in order to sustain life?"

my question is do people really believe this? this is not true. speed has nothing to do with time in the event of time traveling. Time travel must be proven or why should this be accepted so much? No one has actually time traveled and never will. The whole theory began from the thought of algebraically rearranging the equation distance divided by time equals speed, to time equals going really fast. no. this is very incorrect and i am surprised no one knows this. In the equation there, you dont calculate all of time, you calculated the passing of time, so you can only change the passing of time and not ALL of time. Also, time elapses EVERYWHERE so it would be impossible to move quickly in ONE place and change time in ALL places. Rather this whole time changing idea is the effects of energy upon an object or the lack of energy upon an object which gives the result of the appearance of aging more or less....(not enough space!)

Is this just a scam?

I've seen company's advertise this for gifts. For a number of $$'s you can have a star named for someone and they send you a certificate of where that star is, etc, etc.

How does this work if many companys around the world are doing it? Who "puts dibs" on certain parts of the galaxy, so other companys don't "sell" that star?

going to the moon and doing space walks and seeing if theres possibility for life on the mars is such a waste of money, who really cares bout any of that crap? spend the money on the already ridiculously cheap AIDS medicine for people in africa who cant afford it. or spend the money for clean water for ppl who dont have it. or buiild some damn schools in countries where there are no schools...

Wow it would be cool if there was a asteroid located at one of the Lagrange points, because it would make a great platform for a space colony.

Since today seems to be the day for asking about extraterrestrial life, I thought I'd see what everyone thought about the Drake Equation. Basically this equation allows us to predict how many "intelligent" and communicative species there are in space.
it is :

N x R* x Fp x Ne x Fl x Fi x Fc x L.

where N is the number of civilizations in our galaxy able to communicate

R* is the rate of star formation in our galaxy
Fp is the fraction of those stars with planets
Ne is average number of planets per system can support life
Fl is the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life
Fi is the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life
Fc is the fraction of the above that are willing and able to communicate
L is the expected lifetime of such a civilization.

Check it out , plug in your own numbers and tell me what you think is the right answer!!!
