  1. Something to think about on Five Possible Life-Bearing Planets Found · · Score: 1

    Instead of asking what if this or what if that, we should start concerning about something else. Even if any of these planets are habitable, how are we going to get there. We should start thinking about space travel, also, and not just planet discovery.

    The closet "possible" habitable planet is Mars. To get to Mars from Earth would take about 2.5 months in a rocket. (Mars from Earth=36 million miles) (Rocket speed=25,000 miles/hour) I am no scientist or anything (just a kid in college) and giving only estimates but is it a realistic possibility for humans to get anywhere deep in space.

    --keep other factors open on the subject not just discussing one topic--

    open mind = open source

  2. newbie on White House Web Page Cracker Faces Prison · · Score: 1

    After reading the article, its states that JavaScript poses a security risk. I was wondering if anyone could explain to me how does JS poses a threat on web pages.

  3. OUTRAGED! on CMU Cuts off Net Access for 71 Students Over MP3s · · Score: 1

    i cant beleive what i am hearing here. so is everyone saying that they are perfect and never did any illegal or copy any software or burn cd's illegally. what happened to those students is part of university life (for any that experienced it) and shouldn't be punished so harsh. so what if some students shared some songs so others at the university could access it. most students at college are broke cause of costs. what about the mp3 search engines that look for songs on ftp sites and people grab the song of their choice?!?!?! are they gong to crack down and sue everyone.
