This was the worst movie ever made! Come on! The guy inhales the ship fuel and starts to transform into an alien!? What's that? And aliens forming a slum!? Where are the rich countries to rescue? Like the US would have no interest in bringing them out and studying whatever tech they had... And how do the aliens behave like wild animals and are still so advanced? It just does not add up. This is a horrible and ridiculous movie. I just can't understand how people can like such terrible stuff. People should just go watch the Cosmos series by Carl Sagan and they would understand why this is such a ridiculous plot. This movie is just a symbol of how decadent is the human society these days. It even makes me sad to think that this is the kind of stuff that people like to see. Destruction, death, crime... this is just another lame pretext to make skulls explode with computer effects. No intellectual value at all.
I am a student living in the US now, but I also lived in Japan before.
If you want freedom, Brazil should be a very good option. I won't deny that it has problems and is not quite at the same level of wealth as the US, EU or Japan, but there is literally no better place to live. For a foreigner you may have a lot of red tape to take care of, but other factors really will compensate for it. Weather, the people, the food... I can't wait to finish my PhD and go back!
Portuguese should not be so hard to learn from English too, it's very similar to Spanish.
Actually, only the light elements like H, He and Li were formed in the Big Bang, so these are the most abundant. All the others are formed inside stars by nucleosynthesis, including carbon. Even in the Sun, about 75% in mass is H and 23% is He, only 2% of it is made of heavier elements. Of course, this balance will change during Sun's life, but that's what it is now.
Wow, I saw a post with only one comment? What's happening? Where are all the guys that stay here commenting 24/7 so that when other access they actually have what to read?

Which means that the temperature to which they are in equilibrium is 2.7 K, as I said before. This makes the trip phase colder than when at Pluto's surface, the only thing I wanted to say in the first post. The Spitzer satellite, for example, which is not that far away, is kept at much lower temperatures than 43 K. http://coolcosmos.ipac.caltech.edu/cosmic_classroo m/ask_astronomer/video/transcripts/2003-001.pdf Why make confusion with heliosphere if you yourself admitted it doesn't matter?
The particles in the ISM follow the Mazwell-Boltzmann distribution of velocities with a temperature of actually 2.725 K. Read here what the guys who measured it have to say (WMAP experiment).
Actually, the electronics needs to work also during the trip, where the temperature is about 2.7 K. For the kind of electronics that goes to space, low temperature actually helps.
Yeah, I posted it, but I sent to the Politics/Software section... In my original post, the link didn't require a subscription to be read, but anyway, next time I try to find the right section
