  1. coriolis force/effect on Highlift Systems' Space Elevator In The News Again · · Score: 1

    Vague knowledge here, but doesn't the coriolis effect have something to do with a planet's rotational momentum and it's atmosphere?

    As in, the planet is rotating one way but for what ever reason (low gravity? very very fast rotation?) the gas at the surface of the planet is moving in the other direction.

    Wolf, could you please correct me if I'm wrong?

    Feel the rope burn all the waaaaaaaaay down!

  3. Size of circuits on Computers Will Be Built By Living Cells · · Score: 1

    Zepalesque, smaller circuits have higher processing power, so ideally, you'd want to have as small a circuit as possible while not so small that you'd run into problems with Heisenberg's Principle.

    Therefore, computers made by biomaterials are likely to have higher processing power due to the smaller size of their circuits.
