The different parts of executive branch can't even count on being safe from each other, when their culture is to disregard the constitution for some perceived higher purpose.
One of the participants said his reason for volunteering for the mission was the great opportunity to "act like an astronaut for a year." I think the motivation and psyche profile of dangerous-mission astronauts is likely to be very different.
"But during inspections of the ship, experts found that bringing the ship to today’s standards would require “significant” changes to the hull, which could create stability challenges for the ship. Installing a modern diesel electric propulsion plant would also require rebuilding about 25 percent of the hull, Crystal said. Essentially, the ship require rebuilding from the inside out. "
Or, as NASA said today, dark matter may be black holes.(http://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2016/nasa-scientist-suggests-possible-link-between-primordial-black-holes-and-dark-matter). If I were an astrophysicist, I might know why the author didn't just pull out a calculator and figure out how many 30 solar mass black holes would likely be near us (assuming uniform distribution) to account for average observed galactic rotational speed anomaly, and if the kepler telescope (or another) could be used to look for star flickers from all the gravitation lensing of all these black holes roaming about.
The tests you mention were not tests of how the compton effect (EMP amplification that only occurs with high altitude detonations) would damage infrastructure which is now controlled by modern computer chips (which are 5 magnitudes more sensitive to EMP than the transistors that were commonplace at the times of those tests).
One tumbling EMP nuke detonated above the atmosphere over the center of the US would plunge most of the country into darkness for months, if not years. It would interrupt the production and delivery of food, medicine and clean water. The number of US casualties, after a few months, could be worse than all past attacks and wars combined.

You could also take the opinion that the concept of a firearm today is something the signatories to the second amendment could hardly imagine...
One could also take the opinion that if the signatories couldn't imagine firearms that simply shot bullets faster, then there's certainly no possible way they could have imagined the discovery of electricity and all the ways it would facilitate speech, therefore the first amendment should not apply to any electronic communication, if the second amendment should not apply to modern arms!
If you find yourself talking to a person who dismisses talk of multiverses or string theory as no better than talk of the supernatural, just ask them what a person would see while falling into a black hole. They will proceed to tell you their version. Then ask if someone outside the hole can ever verify anything they just said. They will say no, communication won't work from inside an event horizon to the outside. Then ask, if everything they said is all based on conjecture and extrapolating known laws, and can't be experimentally verified, why do they feel it merits discussion?
So... uh, does Phil Plait or Neil Degrasse Tyson read Slashdot?
Try the book "Spooky Action at a Distance." It challenges the idea that 4D spacetime is fundamental, because of observations of entanglement. It discusses both the holographic universe theory, and also geometrogenesis under quantum graphity. http://guidetoreality.blogspot...
it shoved an ad on top of a web page i was trying to read. The ad programmer had some fun with it, it would move around when I tried to scroll, and the dismiss box did not do exactly what I wanted. So I took a few minutes to install firefox and adblock. Then I removed the chrome icon from the special real estate on the home screen and replaced it with firefox, and set firefox to default. Goodbye ads!

Before 1982, EVERY phone was leased from the phone company and you had no third party options. Deregulation proved to be good thing for everybody.

Ambiguity is removed... and you get more service if you sign up during the last 3 days of January.
This means, if you weight 70 kg, your body contains about 34 trillion electron-volts of dark matter (or 6*10^-20 grams).
Only if it's uniformly distributed. If dark matter is black holes, then no. http://www.space.com/33122-dar...

A cable hanging under its own weight forms a catenary, not a parabola. I presume that still applies when you hang a roadway from it.
It doesn't, since the roadway hangs from discrete points.

Yeah, I can't imagine how they will "secure" this system from people "stealing" their magnetic waves.
All they have to do is report your location to a patrol car.
Why would I buy something online and then drive to pick it up?
Because you want it today, at the online sale price.
