  1. Oh, yes, Canada and Germany. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexx
  2. It's better to land, if possible. But it's not always possible. The water drag still can crash, rotate, and/or overturn the plane, while on the ground you can slide. Unlike the ground, it has waves, which are an effective replacement of the ground pits and heaps. And once you had landed, you won't sink. Don't forget that divers don't pass to tens meter depth as quick as a plane sinks. And it's easier to aim along the ground than along the water with its reflections and flash dance, and absence of stable details to estimate the altitude.
  3. Granted. Finally, you have read a book watched a tutorial "PC for everyone in twenty minutes", and start controlling the computer with brain, not just with hands. I wish Python was everywhere replaced with C++, in the name of the Greater Beauty.
  4. The shrimp doesn't want you. Coconut cocoa with cucumbers, please.
  5. Back to importance of the Moon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Diana It can't switch off.
  6. A new spin-off in the Orion franchise universe. Now with portals. P.S. If you can teleport photons, there is no need in 99% of spaceflights, as you can communicate and observe sitting at home.
  7. Maybe it's an ominous eugenic experiment? They send an astronaut without a suit, training him breathe with vacuum longer and longer each time? The purpose is to develop a lunar human race needing no colonies or terraforming? Like Kerbals.
  8. Cheap? What do you mean by "cheap"? It's perfectly minimalistic, and definitely not of the 1990s, it's a 2000s style, close to the Neil Johnson's Nephilim saga (Humanity's End, Rogue Warrior, Starship Rising, Starship Apocalypse, etc.), Scavengers, Metal Hurlant. This is cheap, and it's perfect in its cheapness. A true masterpiece of DIY.
  9. MOL and later ones had scopes 2 m in diameter. That's like X-37B itself.
  10. Because "leng" is a little-known numeral, and you are the leng-th. Does Eywa grok Shai Hulud?
  11. SW gravity is just a remake of anthique tragedies. The physics works same way.
  12. The China's one is reusable, the Boeing one is reused.
  13. I mean the opposite. The combat room should be small and well-protected, so the 1 m wide hole would mean its destruction. So, they should have enough time for several steps to the neighboring room and trhe door unlock/lock.
  14. The next question: should a crewed spaceship have so large rooms that a meter-wide hole doesn't mean a total crash inside.
  15. Yes. Why yet nobody transplanted a pair of this amusing things on the forehead?
  16. Duking, earling, and viscounting are cheating, too.
  17. Any malcookies are Animal Cookies.
  18. Thanx to SFX, Tauriel from the Hobbit series looks even more plastic than Daenerys from GoTh.
  19. Give it a spoon. It will crawl out and fly away. Waiter! Why is this simple Alphabet soup made of Phi, Beta, Kappa letters? Was it your alma-mater before this diner?
  20. Tolkien's description of evil entities are primitive, poor, cheap, and almost totally consisting of arachnophobia. Silmarillion, Hobbit, LOTR are same graphomanic. P.S. Ecranizations are same miserable.
