How can such a diabolical instrument of government imagination be protected against? How do the secret service agents know that the birds or other wildlife in the lawn are not foreign agents? They don't really even need a camera on the bird, just a microphone and a ditigal recorder to gather...

We could use these pigeons to investigate the happenings of area 51. Wonder how the security at the base would defend against such an intel nightmare.

There were bat bombs in WWII, Acoustic Kitty thanks to that other government agency, dolphins de-mining harbors, robotic mice to help search and resue, and now China brings the world... http://edition.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/asiapcf/02/27/china.pigeon.reut/index.html According to the article...

No, I'm not formally trained... unless you count 1 semester of astronomy in college :) Well, here's an very introductory level NASA article: http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forstudents/5-8/features/F_When_Gallaxies_Collide.html To quote: "there is very little chance of stars from the...

A new Trek movie has been anounced and de-annouced so often that Paramount annoucning an official release date is good news to those of us who wanted another trek movie :)

BIG NEWS: Paramount Pictures announced that the next Trek movie is going to be coming Christmas Day 2008! Woohooo :) After the Enterprise series, I though trek had died, but if this movie turns out to be up to the par of the Original Series (or even TNG) then it will be great! Also...

That seems to go against everything I've read concerning our collision with Andromeda. Namely that the VAST majority of the stars in our galaxy will not be "destroyed" by the event... perhaps only a few near the center of the galaxy will be in any real danger. Our solar system is far enough away...

Oh man, I hope you are ready to DDUUCCKK! :) See above :)

Why do you say that? I would think the intense temperature and pressure in the core would keep it in a gaseous state. Although the core does rotates as a solid body.

Umm, I'm not sure about that. "PSR B1257+12 A" is an exo-solar planet with a mass that is LESS than the Earth's (it's only 2x lunar mass). But that's not all. A possible comet/asteroid may have also been discovered in the same pulsar system that has an UPPER mass limit of 0.0004 Earths...

Sure it wasn't the ac kicking in? :)

Yeah, because I'm sure every guy is just dreaming of wearing that outfit! :)

Well, the straight forward answer to your question is most definitely no! I'll post the thoughts of one of our finer mentors for your physical considerations: Also, if we can say e=mc^2 means mass IS energy, then why not interpret the "=" (equal sign) in F=ma to mean, force IS mass? I...

Right, and doing squats shoots testosterone levels much higher than exercises that primarily target just the upper body.

I'm a little confused why you would ask this question and answer it yourself here. By strength, I assume that you mean absolute strength. Are you comparing a man and a woman that both have the same weight? Or are you comparing an average sized man and an average sized woman? Is there an age...
