I've thought about this before. I've had a greyhound ex-racer before, and many house cats. Seeing a Cheetah run its obvious they have the same general stride, and their build is really similar. But observing cats and dogs, it becomes obvious very quickly that cats are extremely supple and flexible, where as dogs are…

It looked like somebody pasted together two previously published clips with some hand-held cam-corder pirate footage in the middle..?

He's all like "Mom! Wait Up!"

I think we are looking for them right now. We have several ongoing efforts to find planets based on the impact they make on a star's light. So a galaxy full of Dyson spheres is also a galaxy full of half finished Dyson spheres. They are bound to have an distinct affect on the starts light.

I think its both - the robots will have to crush us before we willingly walk into the pods.

what article? There is just this damn picture where Saturn is smaller than Neptune, and the same size as Earth... MY EYES...IT BURNS!

scale of the planets in that header image is all worng

wow, that actually sounds really awesome

Missed the live stream - know of any videos of the launch online?

No, they won't, because they have increasingly hitched their wagon to such conservative values that would perceive this as an abomination. I think it more likely they will try to tax, DRM, or throttle your cyborg capabilities, just as they do with other such analogous superpowers today...

I know - it just highlights the impossibility of knowing. Of all the things in life that you can't control, death is like the ultimate thing you can't control, your own or others.

hmm, no mention of this recent story: Dead boy sits up in casket, asks father for glass of water.

think of the omlets

Yup - this is the new cold war to motivate us into space.

Obviously this is the most awesome timeline.

Perfect!

Just how big is the sun in the sky standing on Venus (if you could have a clear sky on venus). It looks so damn close to the sun in the video, but that has to be because its so much closer to us than the sun...

Sooo... Death Week is when you pick to post Mars One? Look out astronauts.

same here.

Actually the give away was her dance moves at the beginning of the Wang Chung song.
