Stop joking.

Thank you for the information. By the way, why didn't you replace the image? Were there no good images showing its polluted state?

The image of the Yangtze River may be somewhat misleading to certain individuals. So, I suggest you to remove the photo of the Yangtze and replace it with the photos of Korea's rivers, which were stripped of their ecosystems because of a damned stupid fanatical blind condemned policy. Also, more information regarding their pollution status would be nice. Dear gpisic.

I prefer Minecraft more. So, I'm not going in there.

Get a new life.

Remember people, no critique allowed. Keep this thread stable and steady. Also, I think this thread is at where it belongs. Since this thread contains mere speculations which don't have anything to do with science themselves, it doesn't deserve to be in the science forums.

I guess China wants the moon ice that much.

A historical example would be Eastern Asia. It developed into a China-centered monopoly. And it brought cultural assimilation, technological and ideological stagnation. Eventually making it lose the arms race and lose its culture. When a certain culture group becomes powerful and has enough influence, it starts generating a monopoly. We never learn.

That would cause it to collapse.

As a casual sandbox player, I approve of this.

Although Utopias are pure fantasies, their concepts are very interesting. A society with problems cut to a minimum, a society where there is almost no conflict, and many other visions of sustainable societies. The point is, I would like to see your visions regarding these fantasy societies. How they are made does not matter. The very visions are the most important. Thus, I recommend people to not criticize the visions of others, for doing such an action would be completely unnecessary.

Am I the only East Asian here? Well, I certainly do know that such a thing is very unlikely to be true. Anyways, I am from a East Asian nation that was created 69 years ago. - - - Updated - - - It's not my fault either.

Just keep it steady.

The third and final mission succeeded in its objective of delivering Kerbals onto the surface of Duna, but it failed due to not one, but many unexpected aspects. The First was the planet Duna itself. The mission itself went out smoothly, pleasing Jebediah to his edge for he could acquire more funds for the space program. The crew had succeeded in landing the lander, and proceeded to extract core samples for the analysis of potential resources. Since all the other types of scientific activity were already done by the probes, the only thing left was to analyze Duna to evaluate its worth. However, even though the probes had shown data that indicated of the existence of frozen aquifers, the samples themselves have indicated that there were none. After weeks of research, the crew had discovered a new form of silicate from the core sample that was formed in the low gravity environment of Duna, which had a density similar to aquifers. The find shed light to a ignored theory regarding Duna's supposed 'aquifers' being mere exotic silicate structures that contained little to no water. The find removed the potential of Duna becoming a prosperous resource hub for further space exploration. The second and the least important was the lander. After the crew had finished their work, they proceeded to enter the lander and escape into orbit. It was equipped with a strong engine that had enough thrust to enter orbit on its own, that had a tendency to overheat. -to be updated and fixed later-

It's like Lego, While Orbiter is like figurines. Which one is "superior" I cannot tell. Also, yes.

And suddenly, he was enveloped in a blinding light.

Diversity is key indeed.

Nope, the entire world does. Including japan.

'Classical' cartoons are quite awesome. They have the wildness that modern cartoons don't. Well, not that I hate modern cartoons.

Yes, I agree with you.

A space infrastructure is impossible. Currently, that is.

So, let's give up everything we have valued. If we do not, the second dark age will come. Or not. Also, have you read Ishmael? It's a good novel dealing with the idiocracy of humans.

I guess good threads become train wrecks this way. Please continue.

This thread is for discussing the wonders of molecular gastronomy. A topic which is very great and interesting.

The first failed due to errors in ship structure. During the transfer towards Duna, the crew consisting of two kerbals had lost contact with KSC for over a month due to solar flares. Even though connection was reestablished, the crew did not respond. After running a remote examination on the vessel, it was concluded that the life support had gone haywire after the flare due to the main system malfunctioning via exposure to solar flares. The reason why they couldn't fix it was debated by many engineers, and a conclusion was drawn by Scott Kerman, who analyzed the ship structure and revealed the problem: the life support was supposed to be fixed at the exterior of the vessel; however, it was a open structure, forbidding access from outside due to the vacuum. The chief architect, Shelton Kerman, apologized to the public and vowed that he would analyze the ship's blueprints with a computer software to insure the lack of errors from the moment on. The public started being worried about space travel at this point. The second failed due to software failure. The ship was snapped in half due to the extreme tension, damaging the two engines and the landers. Scott Kerman, the mission commander of several missions, used the secondary antennae to communicate with KSC, saying that they will not give up in any condition. They were seen by KSC via the Herbel Telescope using their remaining RCT fuel to push themselves to a towards-Kerbin trajectory. Although they succeeded in doing so, they were found dead by the rescue craft even with the ability to fix life support if needed. Eventually, the software team found a error in the ship's software that made the ship deny the use of life support if the main power source was destroyed. Also, the structural failure was caused by the software's inability to apply unexpected data to the ship's manuveres. And again, the software team apologized. -to be updated someday-
