    I put "Potentially Habitable" on some of my first posts, but I just started doing "Habitable" 'cause I thought people got the memo that I didn't mean 100% Habitable:/ Otherwise, I agree, finding "Habitable" Exoplanets is probably the coolest thing in Astronomy right now

    Look at the captions on the screen when they switch cameras. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q6bKnrFsT0

    What do you need help with?

    Alright, Intelligent Dino, won't work, okay, the Atlantis idea then, that would be pretty cool, but perhaps they were Martians (This may be a bad idea, I dunno), that began to colonize Earth before it wiped itself out. (Panspermia!!!)

    How to Terraform Venus in 6 simple and easy steps: 1: Build a black sail several thousand km wide (Yes, you read it right), and place it at a Venus-trailing orbit where the sail blocks most of the light coming from the Sun. 2: Use massive "Air tanks" to get the atmospheric pressure from 90 atm to .2 atm. 3: Take away the sail (Hurl it at the Sun or something) and begin bombarding Venus with comets (Mostly at the equator to help it spin faster). 4: Take the "Air tanks" in the Asteroid belt and fill them with Nitrogen to raise the atm pressure from .3 atm to .9 atm. 5: Use genetically modified bacteria to turn the Venusian dirt into something that resembles soil, as well as turning the CO2 into O2. 6: After a couple hundred years, you'll have a beautiful tropical world. See? I told you it'd be simple and easy, now you can Terraform Venus from a hellhole, to a tropical paradise.

    The desert I'm talking about has no water or life. Scientists say we haven't found every dinosaur (So it's possible that there could've been an intelligent species): http://qz.com/430625/were-not-even-close-to-discovering-all-the-dinosaur-types-that-ever-existed/

    That's what I was thinking.

    Watch this video, it mentions the "Speculative element": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaJC8XFywBc And the description has some resources:)

    It's not entirely like Venus, for one thing, It doesn't have a hellishly thick atmosphere and temperature. And for another, it's orbital period is longer. The Atlantis thing would be cool, but... What if it was intelligent dinosaurs that left the monolith (That managed to evade the carnivores, and develop technology)? And it wasn't an Asteroid that wiped the Dinosaurs out, but rather, an Anti-matter rocket test gone wrong!

    Do you know where the movie trailer is?
  12. Spaceception
    Could the planet around Nibru be the home planet for that civilization that left the monoliths? (I don't know if that's already been asked) And what if you added a warm desert with an extremely inclined (Almost polar) orbital period of 300 days with a mass of .20 Earths, a temp. of 0.3 c, and an atmospheric pressure of .4 atmospheres, instead of that Gas giant idea?

    I can like now! I have no idea how many I have though:/
  14. Spaceception
    I'd give you rep, but I ran out of likes:/

    I've watched most of the first episode, and I really like it so far. Also, I've heard of Ultima, on Amazon.
  16. Spaceception
    Yay!! Space!!

    On October 12th 1915, an Astronomer by the name of Robert Innes found Proxima Centauri, a little over a century later, we're looking to see if there's a Habitable Exoplanet. http://earthsky.org/space/this-date-in-science-discovery-of-proxima-centauri

    Possible orbital periods for a possible exoplanet in the habitable zone of Proxima (6-27 days): Pretty wide range for a small red dwarf like that, personally I'd be gutting for something like 14 days.
  19. Spaceception
    I have now, that's awesome!
  20. Spaceception
    Thanks Have you read it? How good is it?

    The Hyperloop project The basic idea is that a Maglev, and vacuum tube came together to create Hyperloop. Wait But Why (simple rundown): http://waitbutwhy.com/2015/06/hyperloop.html Discovery news: http://news.discovery.com/tech/gear-and-gadgets/hyperloop-gets-rolling-with-ginormous-tubes-160115.htm The two main competitors: Hyperloop Technology's: http://hyperlooptech.com/ Hyperloop transportation technology's: http://hyperlooptransp.com/ What it could look like:

    Here's a cool website section about habitable exoplanets: http://www.solstation.com/planets/earths.htm And a article about favoring "Tidally locked" exoplanets (Which is what we'd probably find on a potential planet in the HZ around Proxima): http://nautil.us/blog/forget-earth_likewell-first-find-aliens-on-eyeball-planets I'm alright with surprises... As long as it's a good one.
  23. Spaceception
    Exactly Plus, studies have been done that estimate that red dwarfs have at least one planet, and at least a quarter of them have planets in the habitable zone, so they worked out that the nearest "Earth-twin" should be 6-8 ly away (I can't find the picture), but depending on certain conditions, could be closer.. Like around Proxima! If the planet has a strong enough magnetic field, and is lucky enough, It could be fine. Anyway, here's a simple, but cool calculator: http://astro.unl.edu/naap/habitablezones/animations/stellarHabitableZone.html

    Yup, but the more mining colonies, the better, Lunar/NEO mining colonies/outposts for missions around the inner solar system, and Asteroid belt/Ceres colonies for outer solar system colonies/outposts and beyond.
  25. Spaceception
    So what kind of planet would you like to see around Proxima, assuming there's a habitable exoplanet around it?
