I would suppose the primary setback would be cost. Having electronics in armour would greatly increase the price of production.

Your understanding of physics is quite off. First off, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle has absouloutly nothing to do with the moon. Secondly, GR and SR and about 100 years after Newton figured the rotation of the moon.

Is there honestly any point in buying land somewhere you will never go? Unless there are some hopefuls out there who plan on living for a very long time, I doubht that anybody who reads this post will live long enough to see people have permanent residence on the moon. If I am wrong, however...

It would be nice for people to simply say that it's a coincidence and nothing more, and just drop it.

Isn't this known as quantum entanglement? Try typing that into [PLAIN]www.google.com,[/URL] you may get lucky. =-]

My understanding of black holes is that photons travellining in the right trajectory would be caught by the massive gravity of the black hole and orbit the black hole perpetually. This is known as a photon sphere, but I'm sure is just theory.

I'll be honest, I have no clue in hell... However by the sounds of the question I think this is better suited for the homework section. You sure it was your friend, and not a mathematics textbook that ponders the answer?

Nodes eh? That's not quite the way I understood the structure of an atom. You see, Bohr-Rutherford diagrams and such are much different than the real thing. Infact, a theory of quantum mechanics suggests that electrons for an atom here on Earth may currently be on mars, or vice-versa.

Depends on the context of the question... The surface area may be the area of one side of a cube, whereas the net area may be the sum of the four sides of the cube.

LOL! Looked right over that... Sorry.

- Ashley runs 3.0 km in 4.00 minutes. What is her average velocity? The answer is 45 but I can't figure out how to get it. Use the equation v=d/t v=3/4 - A train moving at 15 km/hr takes 1 minute to come to a stop, find its rate of acceleration, its average velocity and the distance it...

Infinity isn't a number, nor is it some sort of physical place, it is simply... large... Infinity is difficult to define, it simply means that it is large beyond comprehension.

Forgive me for feeling rather uncomfortable in using excrement in a chemistry experiment... Any other means to obtain this stuff?

Anouther thought just occurred to me: would it be possible to use a chemical reaction to produce NaNO3?

Thanks for your interest Monique. I have been up and down the internet, and read the MSDS regarding saltpeter (AKA Sodium Nitrate and Potassium Nitrate) and although I found some interesting facts, I found nothing regarding how to obtain it... I have also though about asking my physics...
