    I'm replying to myself cause I wan't people to see it and also the interface is confusing as hell. I don't mean to say that the earth isn't getting warmer, it is. What I mean to say is that we don't know that it is necessarly a bad thing.

    That is just one of the reasons you don't use batteries far from the sun. RTG's generate a constant source of heat and electricity for years due to radioactice decay. You could up the anti with a full scale nuclear reactor but nasa would be hard pressed to sneak that out of the gravity well. The only other option is to beam energy there but that is a problem becuase it's hard the amim the attena. Nuclear power is really the only way to go for deep space travle.

    global warmng isn't really an issue. Truth be told we don't know what the hell is happening to the enviorment.
