I'm doing a Moon colony project and we have to have a name for our colony. Does anyone have any good names for a colony that actually make sense and has to do with the Moon?

I have taken psychology and the freaking bozo we studied from actually teaches others that the moon is closer to the earth when it is high above, versus when it is on the horizon. Now, I should have failed this class because I refused to study any further dealing with his teachings, however I proved that his theory was a crock of **** and received an A in the class. What was this guy's name?

Yeah, I know this event is supposed to happen in roughly 10 billion years and that our sun will have burnt out some 6 billion years prior to that. However, for the sake of argument, lets say that our solar system, sun and even human civilization were intact when this event were to happen. What would happen to our solar system, or indeed our planet? Would gravitational forces pull our solar system apart? Would our planet be captured by another sun, or our solar system grab additional planets? Would there be any collisions with other planets and or stars?

By all means, please feel free to engage in heavy physics if you feel the need.

At the moment it is only a theory how can they possibly prove the fact without any doubt?

Like trigger the whole moon to go volcanic, sending enough ash and dust to block out the sun's light, therefore causing our veiw of the moon to be dark, as in no light coming from the moon. Come on closet scientists, I know you are out there, this is a serious question, expecially considering NASA's planned moonbase in 2023

If this is so, what impact could it have on measuring the age of the universe?

Time dilation — the time lapse between two events is not invariant from one observer to another, but is dependent on the relative speeds of the observers' reference frames (e.g., the twin paradox which concerns a twin who flies off in a spaceship travelling near the speed of light and returns to discover that his twin has aged much more).

This is assuming that the rate of hygrogen fusion in the Sun remains constant. How will this affect the chemical compostion of the Sun?

In order to survive, humanity would have to venture off to other hospitable planets orbiting another star, but conventional chemical fuel rockets that took man to the moon on the Apollo mission would take 50,000 years to travel there.

"Science fiction has developed the idea of warp drive, which takes you instantly to your destination,".

"Unfortunately, this would violate the scientific law which says that nothing can travel faster than light."

However, by using "matter/antimatter annihilation", velocities just below the speed of light could be reached, making it possible to reach the next star in about six years.

What do you think?

What do you think about a shuttle going back and forth between Earth and the Moon?
