Whelp, my next car certainly won’t be a Nissan....

This does explain a lot...

Eh, just bring back Ambush Bug to slap them around and remind them of their previous history.

To an extent, you do have a point.

I have to give you your props on this one.

Ugh! Aerial! Sometimes I hate my tablet’s autocorrect feature!

Any chance that we could get a straight on and a side view of this beast?

Looking at the tail configuration, I wonder if it may not be a stealth version of an F-14 Tomcat. Without the wings and tailplanes, it would be hard to be certain. The side angle seems to indicate a more substantive fusalage than an F-18.

A grape shot type of deployment would not really be the best type of deployment unless they had significant mass to them as well as the kinetic energy given them by an ICBM or IRBM type of reentry vehicle. While it would have significant momentum, it would not give deep penetration such as a ‘Rod From God’. However;…

I’m afraid you really have no understanding of orbatal dynamics nor of orbital artillery ‘theory’. If the KK projectile were simply on a ballistic path, you’d be largely correct. However; the Kinetic Kill warheads that are public knowledge, specifically, ground or airlaunched KK projectiles, typically use a solid fuel…

I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of a project known as “Thor”, other than to say that the artist impressions are exactly that. Impressions. Should such a system actually exist, the projectiles would be both much longer and thinner to maximize the kinetic impact over as small a location as possible for…

I could NOT stop laughing at this video! Don’t get me wrong, but this was so, sterile a strike that it was as if the defenders were completely inept! While I won’t underestimate the Chinese capabilities, they seem to have VASTLY underestimated the US capabilities!

What bothers me is that it’s not just rape allegations. More often than not, men have been accused of sexual misconduct in the workplace, when no misconduct was intended, or in some cases, never happened at all.

Burma Shave!

As Carl Sagan was directly involved in the movie, I'd have to say that it was a pretty good reflection of just one of the plot elements in the book. Unfortunately, the joining together of world geopolitics was kind of glossed over while trying to tell the story from the perspective of it's main character. The ending…

What ARE you smoking?

Why would a space traversing alien race HAVE to be vastly more advanced than us?

We don't know for certain that they don't actually exist. In fact, it was only a few centuries ago that the idea that rocks fell from the sky was considered ridiculous, now we have an underfunded organization whose sole purpose is to track asteroids that could potentially impact our world.

There are things like self executing and self modifying code you know...

Actually, I'm not as convinced of the absurdity of a virus being used to hack alien computers. It seems that a virus, based on a cross platform operating system, essentially written in binary, could, in theory, infect another system, explore its' various workings, determine such things as its' math base, (base 8, 10,…
