  1. Alien mystery worlds... on 13-Billion-Year-Old Alien Worlds Discovered · · Score: -1

    ...or simply captured rogue planets.

    Occams razor agrees with the latter.

  2. Re:Let's lobby for a new standard on NASA's Hubble Discovers Another Moon Around Pluto · · Score: 0

    That's 53 planetary "systems"

    The list of actual planets is well over 500, with 1200 more candidates discovered by the Kepler satellite to be confirmed.

  3. Re:Cancel your account. on ESRB Exposes Emails of Gamers Who Filed Privacy Complaints · · Score: 0

    Have you actually read the article at all?

    First of all, the privacy concern here was ESRB, not Blizzard.
    Secondly, Blizzard backed down on the name issue after your so called 'spineless idiots' complained.

  4. Re:Augh. on NASA Attempts To Cut Back Constellation · · Score: 0

    I'm always amazed at the cost of US healthcare.

    Maybe if doctors didn't prescribe anti-depressants to everyone who comes in their office complaining about bad gas, it wouldn't be double the average EU GDP%.

  5. Re:Why Not Put It on a U-2? on SOFIA Sees Jupiter's Ancient Heat · · Score: 1

    At those altitudes, the U-2 barely has enough lift to carry it's own weight, let alone carry a telescope with liquid cooling system.

    Another reason for choosing a 747 is the size of the telescope. It's roughly half a U-2 long, and more than double as wide.

  6. Re:goodbye, "No Camera" policies on Artificial Retinas Bring Vision Back To The Blind · · Score: 1

    TV producers will be all over it when that would work. Real life Truman show! But seriously, I think it would take another 15 years or more to get even close to high-res vision for blind people. In 10 years they have built a 4 by 4 pixel vision, wich gives you the ability to see something walk by.
