Lets assume we could get the telescope to the edge of the universe (we'll say 13 billion light years but there is a lot of debate on this) at the speed of light. By the time we'd hit the 13bn ly mark (in 13bn years), the universe would've expanded *another* 13bn light years, whats more, we'd look at Earth and see what happened, 13 billion years previously....ie the telescope would see itself being launched...

....what have I done...
Even if 56k users that read the article, will still have to download the images that are within it. I know, it just gives me great satisfaction that 56k-ers have to watch the images crawl slowly down the page, whereas the rest of us just watch them pop into place....technology rox.
And in one fell swoop Multi makes the thread unfriendly to 56k users...bravo
Question about pic 7, if you lived around a green star, what colour tan would you get? Oh, and as always...*seizure*

Umm I theink they refer to that creepy old person as Queen Mother She's controlling the BBC from beyond the grave.... I tried torchwood , but they killed off the hot chick that was on that show in the first or 2nd episode... ruined it for me... Who Suzie? Meh, Toshiko all the way...
When its good its great, when its bad I want to kill myself.

Interesting, shame Quantum tunnelling doesn't skip around the whole "time-dilation" thing, otherwise it *could* be a viable means of interstellar travel someday....

Does anyone remember that Canadian politician who urged the United States to use alien technology they'd been hording to save the planet from Global Warming? Speaking of all this alieny goodness, has anyone here ever heard of Project Serpo. An alleged exchange program between NASA personnel and an alien race (the Ebens) whose homeworld was supposedly called Serpo, orbiting Zeta Reticuli (a binary system 39 ly away in Reticulum). It is believed by some conspiracy theorists to b
I meant Dark Energy, which accounts for like 70% of the 'stuff' in the universe (can someone give a better explanation here?) Ah right, fair enough, and I don't think anybody can give a better explanation, I think "stuff" is how most mainstream scientists put it. I also disagree with your version of the TEC, the lore says they enjoyed 'relative peace.' They wouldn't have just arbitrarily stopped weapons research, it wo
Dark Matter may be a bit far fetched, especially for the primitive TEC. Besides, we don't know if Dark matter truly exists and in what shape or form (it may have no use as an energy source what so ever), then comes the small matter of harnessing the damn stuff, which, without negative energy, is very difficult. As far as super advanced (yet none nuclear in the conventional sense) sci fi power sources go, antimatter (that is Deuterium and Antideuterium fusion) is a pretty safe (and rathe
Some status reports on combat would be very handy too, so I know if my attention is needed or not for a fleet engagement... "Second Fleet, engaging weak/moderate pirate/tec/etc force" "Second Fleet, under heavy attack" "Second Fleet, withdrawing due to heavy damage" "Mayday Mayday, Second Fleet taking heavy losses! There are too many of them! ArrrGGHHGGHGHlll *static* " I do like the idea of audio alerts along that vein of thinking,
