Yeah, but No Man’s Sky was made by a Dev Team that clearly cared about the game and were doing what they wanted to do, nor did they have a massive publisher like EA behind them. Remember, EA is most concerned with making the most amount of money possible, meaning if Anthem is making them money, but not fast enough for…

I take solace in knowing that my boy BT could take on ten of these trashy MEKA clones at once and come out on top.

Respawn can’t add Titans to Apex Legends because Titans are near-sentient (which can become sentient if they survive long enough) war machines that can wipe the floor with legions of grunts (which the Legends in Apex are maybe one step above). You need a pilot’s jumpkit, enhancements, training, and arsenal to take on…

So, like a tumor, or...?

His ship was damaged! I swear, followers of this organization spend so much time talking about how the higher ups need to make sure more pilots come home safe and sound, but they still expect those poor bastards to go out there and explode in droves. I think we, as fans of this Star War, need to consider if we really…

Flares and chaff work for aircraft because they can then maneuver out of their initial trajectory, hopefully confusing the missile. These days, missiles have sophisticated counter-countermeasures. If the plane doesn’t maneuver, the missile can realize its target is probably the thing that kept flying straight amongst…

I attribute Tyson’s phrasing to Tyson. He along with others are conveying the concept in our time. Lawrence Krauss talks about us being stardust, too, but this article isn’t about him.

So art is beyond criticism, then?

You’re right, Carl Sagan did say it better. But he wasn’t around to say it when I was growing up. The concept was introduced to me by Tyson, and it was through Tyson talking about how Carl Sagan influenced his life did I learn to appreciate Carl Sagan’s contributions to astrophysics and public science education.

What is the grand artistic merit of a four point ice crystal over the six point ice crystal?

He pointed out that the poster for the first movie showed it correctly.

We know becuase he’s explained as much in interviews. In fact, he stopped doing them for a while because people took his tweets too seriously and assume he was criticizing the movie/media as bad, when he was doing no such thing.

He’s explained multiple times in podcasts and interviews that he uses pop-culture references to help educate people in small and hopefully fun ways.

NDT is the “Snowflakes have six sides” guy, and he’s also the “The elements that make up our body and make life possible were created in supernova explosions. We are in the universe, and in a way, the universe is in us” guy.

Well, it WAS tested. What do you think Apollos 1-10 were for? Not to mention each F1 Engine on the Saturn Vs were tested before the rocket was assembled and brought to the pad. 

I wish the environments would match the color and stylization of the characters’ outfits and designs. The battlefield juts looks... bland, in my opinion. 

He’s the Commander in Chief. It’s HIS JOB to order the Military around. Unfortunately the people who wrote up the job description never considered a blithering idiot would be elected to the highest position.

The M1A3 is currently in development right now, and they’re testing Trophy anti-missile systems for M1A2s. We’re not seeing US tanks used in current conflicts because there’s nothing to use them on. Nothing that aren’t more easily dealt with UAVs or air strikes.

A probe to a different planet only has so much mass and deck-space available for instruments. A motor and winch to pull the probe back up is going to take up precious space and mass on the probe. Evidently the engineers building the probe decided that not being able to redeploy was a risk they were willing to take to…
