  1. Yes. 1/5th food production, 1/5 lawyers, 1/5 police, 1/5 government, 1/5 researchers. That is definitely a well thought out society /s. Also, what are the researchers doing? They don't explore, they don't expand, they believe they are the only humans left, they don't have space travel, they don't have robots... so what are the 100,000 researchers doing?
  2. Just in legal trade. However, Divergent is an isolated society with a population of half a million. So they have 100,000 legal workers for their tiny city. Did I mention that another 100,000 do nothing but work in the government/management?
  3. In Divergent, 1/5th of the population is lawyers.
  4. 4 billion miles away, a probe just glanced past a rock for just a second and sped past it at Mach 47.
  5. BTW it is pronounced Thoolee, not Thewl
  6. Distance to Ultima Thule is now under 9000 miles. Now down to one Earth diameter.
  7. Happy 2019! Watch out for replicants.
  8. Craft has flipped, Rex and SDC on. Something really cool: Radio dishes on Earth are going to try to bounce radio waves off of UT for Rex to try to detect.
  9. Ralph now scanning as well Lorri Ralph and Alice simultaneously scanning now. Ralph offline, spacecraft to flip in 2 minutes
  10. 50k and Alice is active (miles not km)
  11. 90k miles and closing. LORRI has begun scanning
  12. 150,000 miles and closing! With the New Horizons, they sent back a couple images early just in case.
  13. No, the portals would just heat up the box wall, and or push outwards and break them.

    What if the present is a continuously moving, special point in time? The future doesn't exist due to the probabilistic nature of the universe.

    The reason there are no time travelers from the future is that the future doesn't exist yet.
  17. Walk the Moon "I'll listen to the south wind sigh with rumors and regrets and I don't want to talk about it anymore."
