    Mass Needed to Convert to Energy & Blow Up Earth?

    Blowing up Earth and converting all of Earth's mass into pure energy are not the same thing. I guess you would need a charge at the center of the Earth large enough for the surrounding mass to reach escape velocity.

    The GZK-Cutoff, we are living in a simulation

    I do not quite get the argument that the GZK-Cutoff hints at the fact, that all of our universe is a Simulation. How does the fact, that according to the work of Silas R. Beane, Zohreh Davoudi und Martin J. Savage our reality has limits comparable to the resolution limits of a computer monitor...

    Nuclear winter, would it happen?

    Models suggest that the ash and fumes caused by cities set on fire by nuclear war would cause a nuclear winter. Are these models still valid, or do more refined models suggest that such a scenario would not occour, or that even a limited nuclear war would cause an extended nuclear winter...

    Exploring the Habitable Zone: Limits and Possibilities for Detecting Alien Life

    Earth was still full of life then, just think of the Oceans.

    Is Time Slowing or Are Processes Slowing Near High Gravity and Speeds?

    Well slowed if you compare it to elsewhere, yes. But you will not notice, seen as time is slowed for you too.

    Why do some people believe in the Moon Haux?

    There is no real debate about the moon haux in the scientific community and evidence for the moonlanding that would be quite hard to fake, like the pendulum swing. Why is it that many people believe in the moon haux although there is no real evidence that the moonlandings were faked?

    Is Earth the only planet fine-tuned for life?

    The things I mentioned. Earth has just the right amount of water, enough to sustain life, but not so much there isn't a significant amount of landmass. A liquid metal core that generates a good magnetic field, goldilocks zone, the size/gravity a fairly stable axis due to the moon/other planets...

    Is Earth the only planet fine-tuned for life?

    What does our Earth have? The right amount of water, I think just 1% more and we would be a waterworld, a solid magnetic field, habitable zone, the right gasses. I think if we could check for all those things the number would drop a lot.

    Future Human intelligence: Superhuman

    What show was that? Telepathy is quack as far as I know. I am more concerned that our intelligence is an anomaly and that will be eventually straightened out down the line.

    Voyager Probes: Longevity in the Void of Interstellar Space

    Just imagine it gets close to a large object, like another star system, or a large rock, how is it supposed to escape again?

    Is Science Fiction Losing Its Charm Due to Unrealistic Space Travel?

    What you don't like the sound they make in space? VRROOOOMMM XD

    Is Big Boss a hero or a villain?

    So he wants a world locked in perpetual war, where war is more of a goal in and itself rather than a tool? He sounds like a nut. Didnt Hitler dream of a world where every generation would have his war? Then again, Hitler kept saying one thing and the exact opposite moments later, you can paint...

    Ants Dominate the World: Fictionalized in Movies & Novels?

    I believe there is a link between us being able to do stuff with our hands and our brains evolving because of it. And people in the field probably know that's the way it happened (maybe). Mathematics started out with somebody drawing a stick through dirt. You would have to give Ants more...

    Why Does Prometheus Reuse Images from Alien?

    When did that started happening? I still remember the pre internet times, when months or even almost a year would pass before a movie that premiered in America hits Europe.

    Exploring the Possibility of Dark Matter Bombs: Fact or Fiction?

    Are you sure you are not getting confused with antimatter? I recall antimatter bombs being unleashed but never came across darkmatter bombs. Maybe it were the creators of the show whom got confused. If those bombs resulted in a big effin explosion they probably started with antimatter bombs and...
