  1. Re:Big Brother Google on The Google Phone? · · Score: 1
    All kidding aside, it's going to be interesting to see what Google eventually does with all this stored information.

    Isn't it obvious ?
    They'll become the greatest target for outsourcing by the North Pole.

    So does that mean video taken from penguin-cam could mistake this object for a UFO ?

    But Tattoo is an object & the main topic of my statement, it's important enough to capitalize.

    But is it visible to penguin-cam ?

    I don't know about cellphones, but didn't the Discovery Channel just do a bit where they attached Video Cameras to some penguins ?
    I suppose it's a longshot of some animal having a camera attached to them being in active duity catching a glimpse of this thing, but, similar circumstances are usually how theese stories come to life.

  8. Eskimo UFO on BLAST Telescope About To Launch From Antarctica · · Score: 4, Funny

    BLAST is a 2700 kg telescope with a 2 meter primary mirror that hangs from a 1.1 million cubic meter balloon floating at an altitude of 38 km
    What's the odds we'll see this reported as a UFO story on Unsolved Mysteries in a few years ?

  15. Traveling at the speed of light on NASA Sees Glow of Universe's First Objects · · Score: 1

    If the earth is 4.5 billion years old, wouldn't that make the light captured by the telescope no older than 4.5 billion years old ?

    Wouldn't we have to be looking in the other direction to see light that was emitted 14 billion years ago, AND be traveling at the speed of light to see it ?

  16. South Polar Rose on Face Search Engine Raises Privacy Concerns · · Score: 1

    Is there a South Polar Rose ?
    I've had a bunch of photos with no faces that I'd like to put names to for quite awhile now.
    Tommy Lee was nice enough to identify one of them, but the others are just, well, unknown roses.

    Maybe I'm just blind, maybe I'm missing somthing here, but if it actually worked, wouldn't he just be able to say "hey, where the fuck did my mirror go ?!" instead of measuring light through some fancy device ?

    Please forgive me if I missed somthing, but I can't help but think about the kid that tells me I can't see him "because he's invisible" as I'm looking right at him. :/
