as a craft approaches the speed of light, time passes more slowly inside that ship from the point of view of people on earth. If you were in a craft going 90% the speed of light, every minute for your wristwatch would be two minutes for a clock on earth. That's called having an "inverse tau" of two. The ratio can go even higher the closer the space craft approaches to light speed, for example at 99% light speed it's 10:1
indeed, magazine capacity not an issue for competent hunter, big game calibers are used in single shot or double barrelled rifles. the 460 or 700 nitro express can take out any land creature.
city dwellers can mostly avoid those, but the dread hoop snakes can get you most anywhere there are elevation differences! And hoop snakes eat drop bears for breakfast!
so you claim you are in darkness if you stand on a black topped parking lot in the Florida Keys at high noon on July? that's an interesting point of view. I said the Sun was brighter, lots of light there at high noon on the moon.
they only mean having a pattern that extends and repeats in 1 or 2 dimensions, not growing into the 2nd or 3rd. this is regardless of fact it is of course made of three dimensional components.
nope, only a doubling in mass (inertial) occurs at 90% light speed. It takes about 30 gigatons (TNT equivalent) of energy to accelerate 1 ton of mass to 90% C. that's a lot, but hardly "almost infinite"
That would depend type of problem? If I had a lproblem suitable for a vector supercomputer, maybe I would only need one or four processors. An NEC SX-6 processor had 8 GFlop in 2001, By 2005, the SX-8 had 16 vector GFLOPS per CPU. Then in 2008 the SX-9 was up to 102 GFLOP, about where our core i7 desktops are. so maybe there is four or five year lag
and by the way, NEO include objects that will come into the earth's neiborhood at some future date, it is not those objects that are near already. no credible threat from them at this time.
isn't that wonderful, the thought of employers requiring those in manual labor to get cyborged to get a job. I know what is wonderful, the thought of fat cat oligarchs getting burked by a bionic arm......
no, a wide variety of mutations is needed, the cruel hand of nature is best left to decide the weeding. the human race may need your seed, so plant it far and wide just in case.

and all of them run Windows thinking it's an actual "operating system".

they'll have a sit-in protest, on top of us and our cars!

I've always found them rather like large eyelashed doe-eyed clubbed to death baby seals, myself.

oh? when the sun is high up it's brighter than anywhere on earth.
it was on the Ark as a potted plant, duh! You unbelievers always use the most contrived scenarios instead of common sense.
I blame you Tea Party haters
but think of all the exciting revelations in news stories it could have told, featuring that bears shit in the woods

don't follow mainstream news much in your mom's basement, eh?
there could be petaflop per second. my desktop can do a petaflop per 30,000 seconds.

The study of mathematics indeed includes protractors, as most schoolchildren have found. Sorry about your ignorance.
but you would still have a right to your laundry, even if late.
right, because HomeLand Security has never paid a visit to anyone who bad mouthed the president on facebook or yourtube or radio

that article is wrong, things still have inertial and the bones become easy to break under load. the heart is a muscle and becomes weak too.
I can assure you I've studied orbital mechanics as part of my physics degree. we'd have *years* notice of such objects.
