1984, w Opinion | What We Do to the Moon Will Transform It Forever

Endgame capitalism.

Turn the moon into a billboard by projecting images on the side that faces Earth.

You think non-capitalist countries would leave it alone?

No idea but the moon is always colonized from a profit perspective so far. Haven’t heard anyone interested in leaving it alone.

SturgiesYrFase, w NASA finally figures out how to open a $1-billion canister
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

I could’ve done it in like 10mins. Easy-peasy. Oxy-acetylene torch, fastener can’t be stuck if it’s a liquid.

It is being stored and a clean room that is temp controlled any heat or anything would contaminate the sample.

@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Thanks poindexter. It was a joke.

Peppycito,

You’re welcome dickhead, it wasn’t funny.

You’re a real Ray of sunshine, hope you have a great day

Well this whole thread restored my faith in humanity.

Also I snickered so it wasn't completely lost.

Peppycito,

Having a good day is easy when you’re not an asshole. You should experiment with that concept sometime.

Says the guy being an asshole

GBU_28,

The fuck is wrong with you

Freewheel,

Given that you aren’t the only audience to a response, even someone who recognizes that it’s a joke might add a little bit of context about, I don’t know, how melting the fastener might contaminate the sample or grinding the fasteners might cause dust and sparks that could also contaminate the sample, so on and so forth.

That all being said, are you okay? Kneejerk responses like that don’t usually come from good places.

Maalus,

A sentence needs to be funny to be a joke. Also, not everything needs a joke as a response.

essteeyou,

I think it was fairly clearly a joke, and at least a little bit funny via absurdity, like suggesting nuking it to open it, or wrapping an elastic band around like a tight jar lid.

Not everything you read is serious unless otherwise stated.

GBU_28,

I guess my other reply was too honest for the moderator, but they are cool with your rudeness?

Why are you being so rude?

faintwhenfree,

Funny, not sure why people can’t understand it’s a joke. But I’ve learned my lesson that I always add /S when I do the sarc joke

Yeah, lot of people with zero chill

mozz, w The Cosmic Bat Nebula
@mozz@mbin.grits.dev avatar

It legit looks like an AI image generator was told to generate a nebula that's also a bat

Anticorp,

I feel like this has definitely been touched up.

Mr_Blott,

Pervert

mozz,
@mozz@mbin.grits.dev avatar

I highly doubt NASA is in the business of doing that (and FWIW Snopes agrees with me).

Anticorp,

Read the comment right above yours:

@mozz@mbin.grits.dev avatar

There's a big difference between "touched up" as in, fix the contrast and adjust the color balance, versus "touched up" as in let's make a nebula look like a bat. The first, me and Ricky are in agreement that they're doing. The second, me and Snopes feel strongly that they're not doing.

rickyrigatoni,

NASA always touches up their photographs to add color and contrast or else space would look very boring.

Whoa. It looks like a bat. Not like the horse head nebula, which looks more like a headless human to me.

Sequentialsilence, w NASA loses contact with Ingenuity Mars helicopter

So basically 72 flights into it’s 5 flight mission it went to far over the horizon and lost line of sight. So they have to drive over to it to re-establish communication.

  1. They’ve done good already, they don’t need to go this hard.
  2. They went so hard they went over the horizon and lost coms.
  3. Because it’s autonomous it’s likely still operational, they just have to get close to it.
SamsonSeinfelder, w NASA loses contact with Ingenuity Mars helicopter

71 successful flights on a different planet is a very impressive achievement non the less

And much more impressive than what they intended in the first place!

Perfect.

Hello it’s me Cave Johnson, turns out Martian dust is a terrible poison, I’m gravely ill. Good news is it’s a fantastic paint.

If there’s one thing doctor who has taught me it’s that the waters of mars of are completely safe, and they do good things for the body.

Jeredin, w Lightest black hole or heaviest neutron star? MeerKAT uncovers a mysterious object in Milky Way

I’ve been studying the range of neutron stars for some time and I feel confident it won’t be too long until much of our evidence and observations will show that black holes, quasars, super massive black holes and the range of other black holes are very likely, more extreme neutron stars - if not quark-like stars or stellar quantum-like objects. For fun, I’ve been also been focusing on colloids, extreme condensates and their quantum/relativistic phases/states; very revealing interactions and emergent properties. Now if we could just better observe zero-point energy…

5714,

What is zero-point energy?

neutronbumblebee, w James Webb telescope discovers the oldest, most distant black hole in the universe
@neutronbumblebee@mander.xyz avatar

These are the massive black holes that lurk at the core of most galaxies. Like the one at the center of our own milkyway galaxy. The question remains do they form at the center of baby galaxies or are they the seed which triggers a galaxy to develop and they just grow even larger over time. If early galaxies had massive black holes for their galaxy size, that suggests the last option. Primordial black holes that is ones that were formed in the big bang have been a possibility for a long time. They have been talked about by astronomers since the 1970s. It great that so much is being discovered now. Lots of surprises still coming I suspect. More info on primeval black holes here. https://physicsworld.com/a/concerning-primordial-black-holes/
