When I read the headline, I intended to reply that "it's good that they're temporary" - but I read the article and viewed the images, and some of them are very nice. And now I can't use my perfect sarky remark. :-(

Not only did I like them;
...I liked them a lot.

Not.

For me, well, all of these. At any time, or even one day-long pee.

I liked them. There are parts where I would pee in the first of these, but generally, no.

As in:

nobody wants to see that unless you give them free beer

Are "standard salvage contracts" extremely explicit on how far down beneath the demolition site structure the salvage company is entitled to? Ie the bottom of the foundation, and not 1mm farther, to the earth`s core, etc. The point being that there is a difference between the precise meaning of a law and the intended…

careful...

Exactly. That's why I get peeved when people talk about dark matter like there is 100% certainty that it's really there. And not mention that, hey, maybe our understanding of how matter and gravitation behave over great distances is less that we think. That dark matter HAS to be there for our current theories to make…

Well, in this case, you can though. For example this is 100% certainly a spiral galaxy:

So, to Brian's point, it has several attributes in common with spiral galaxies. At some point, using new techniques, we will have the ability to make the new observations that will remove all doubt. So that we know with 100% certainty that it is a spiral galaxy. Which is not quite the case currently.

Thank you for ending that properly: "...that can be confirmed with observations later" — because, it's really all about the actual observations, isn't it?

Fantastic images- the old bird never looked so good!!

Ergo, a debate?

Is that an objective statement?

Who needs a lousy stinking $100 million or two?

The 3 most obvious pieces of evidence that proves that it was not faked is that: 1- of the many of the thousands of people that were involved in the project, not one has come fwd and said that it was faked, and here's the role I played in the fakery; 2- the Soviets scrapped their manned lunar landing programme right…

Are those all intended to be slightly sexual in nature?
If so: 3 points.
If not: 1 point.

The ears bit always cracks me up.
