Modern spacecraft make use of a technology discovered in the early twenty-first century by the brilliant Dr. Tannheuser, who earned the Nobel Prize five times in succession. Using the special qualities of Ice II, a special form of normal ice which demonstrates degenerative qualities at relatively mild temperatures, teams in America invented the so called "degeneracy cores" used on modern spacecraft. By controlling the breakdown of Ice II, we can vary the power output of these generators, the maximum of which is currently close to 2.5*1027 J. Tannheuser, however, took this technology a step further. He theorized that by providing energy into a degeneracy core, we can cause it to create a stable black hole, which disregards latent energy loss. Furthermore, by controlling the rotation of two black holes, the mutual Schwarzschild radius could be expanded, creating the now well-known "Tannheuser gate" phenomenon, the only known way of accelerating material faster than the speed of light. Exactly how this is accomplished, and the meaning of the elusive Starbow, will be discussed in a later post.

An afterburner (or a reheat) is a component present on some jet engines, mostly military supersonic aircraft. Its purpose is to provide an increase in thrust, usually for supersonic flight, takeoff and for combat situations. Afterburning is achieved by injecting additional fuel into the jet pipe downstream of (i.e. after) the turbine. The advantage of afterburning is significantly increased thrust; the disadvantage is its very high fuel consumption and inefficiency, though this is often regarded as acceptable for the short periods during which it is usually used.

"A scramjet (supersonic combusting ramjet) is a variant of a ramjet airbreathing jet engine in which combustion takes place in supersonic airflow. As in ramjets, a scramjet relies on high vehicle speed to forcefully compress the incoming air before combustion (hence ramjet), but a ramjet decelerates the air to subsonic velocities before combustion, while airflow in a scramjet is supersonic throughout the entire engine. This allows the scramjet to operate efficiently at extremely high speeds."

I think the biggest challenge with that one will be to do it without breaking any of the forum rules... Please provide us with some text to 'translate' :)

Oh... right... didn't think of that. Darn. Silly me :P

Instead, maybe... explain the plot of Twin Peaks >:)

As described earlier, two artificial black holes' rotation can be controlled, in order to effectively expand the shared Schwarzschild radius, creating a Tannheuser gate. This is the only known way of moving past the speed of light. By artificially expanding the Schwarzschild radius, many limits on the shared singularity's manipulation of physics are removed. The black holes form a field of "ether", background radiation present throughout space, which has been manipulated by the "singularity field" extending from the main point. Within this field, normal physical laws do not apply, rendering electromagnetic communication and detection useless. It also allows physical matter within to easily accelerate many times quicker than usual, with no upper limit on speed. Modern spacecraft can go over 1.0x10^10c, or ten billion times the speed of light. As for the "Starbow" effect, this is caused by outside light entering the field, causing a spectacular effect within. The light is scattered and changed, causing the ether to appear incredibly colorful. On the outside, it seems as if a large, round rainbow appears at the bow of the spacecraft.

Though warp is useful, it is not without flaws. In a later post, the effects of ether field disruption and sub-light time dilation will be explained.

As spoken earlier, two pretend big sucking things turning can be controlled, in order to actually grow the shared sucking place, making a smart-guy door. This is the only known way of moving faster than the light. By pretending to grow the shared sucking place, many controls on the shared never-ending-matter-spot's control of first-world-study-plan are made gone. The big sucking things form a field of "sleep-making-water", back-ground small-and-fast-bad-things present in space, which has been changed by the "never-ending-matter-spot's field" growing from the first point. Within this field, normal things do not happen , making small-good-things-and-hard-cold-things-pull talking and seeing not work. It also allows real things within to easily hurry up many times quicker than usual, with no upper place on quick. Now space boats can go over 1.0x10^10c, or ten times ten times ten times ten times ten times ten times ten times ten times ten times ten times the fast of light. As for the "light-point-turn" thing, this is caused by outside light entering the field, causing a nice sight within. The light is broken up and changed, causing the sleep-making-water to appear very colors. On the outside, it seems as if a large, round wet-light-turn appears at the front of the space boat.

Though quick moving can be used, it is not without problems. In a later talk, the sleep-making-water field problems and under-light time changes will be explained.

 

For next poster:

Info was posted earlier today - game is officially moved to 11:00Am - followed by the BBQ and other activities.  Hope you can still make it!

The Falcon 9 explosion happened because a strut in the second stage tank broke, causing a helium tank to rise to the surface of the liquid oxygen and break, causing the tank to explode due to the pressure overload. The first stage obliviously kept going for several seconds.

 

I kind of wrote this simple for some reason. I had to try not to.

The primary aim of modern warfare (in accordance with the principles of doublethink, this aim is simultaneously recognised and not recognised by the directing brains of the inner party) is to use up the products of the machine without raising the general standard of living. Ever since the end of the nineteenth century, the problem of what to do with the surplus of consumption goods has been latent in industrial society.

-Excerpt from 1984

About ninety percent of the working population depends on agriculture, in which fifty point three six percent of working population are of cultivated and about twelve point seven seven of the region are agriculture laborer. Agriculture is directly connected with land and water resources. In Surguja the percentage concentration of cultivated land is maximum in central zone of the district stretching east to west direction. North and south of this one the percentage of concentration decreases, because of several factors, out of them here are two major factors.

The uplands and high lands are mostly covered with rocky wastelands, infertile soil, woods and scrubs, sloppy and forested area. Unavailability of water for irrigation over most of area, improper drainage difficulty in digging wells due to rocky basement, undeveloped means of communication, transportation have restricted the extension of cultivated land.

about 9 in 10 worker people need green growing things for food. About 12 in 100 are growing food thing worker people. The work of these people has to do with water and land. 

Geez this isn't easy

Let me try something easier.

Boat racing is a sport in which boats, or other types of watercraft, race on water. Boat racing powered by oars is recorded as having occurred in ancient Egypt, and it is likely that people have engaged in races involving boats and other water-borne craft for as long as such watercraft have existed.

A Dyson shell is a hypothetical megastructure made of solid uniform matter, surrounding a star at a constant distance. If such a shell could be built, it would capture the entire energy output of the parent star and provide a vast surface area for habitation. However, all materials known to humankind have insufficient strength, and a rigid shell would have a tendency to drift around its star, necessitating a propulsive correction mechanism.

Eventually, one of the chemicals from which Jekyll had been preparing the draught ran low, and subsequent batches prepared by Jekyll from renewed stocks failed to produce the transformation. Jekyll speculated that the one essential ingredient that made the original draught work must have been contaminated. His supplies of the draught running low, Jekyll decided to write his "confession". Jekyll wrote that even as he composed his letter, he knew that he would soon become Hyde permanently, having used the last of this salt, and he wondered if Hyde would face execution for his crimes or choose to kill himself. Jekyll noted that, in either case, the end of his letter marked the end of the life of Dr. Jekyll. He ended the letter by saying, "I bring the life of that unhappy Henry Jekyll to an end." With these words, both the document and the novella come to a close.

Unlike bipolar transistors, JFETs are exclusively voltage-controlled in that they do not need a biasing current. Electric charge flows through a semiconducting channel between source and drain terminals. By applying a reverse bias voltage to a gate terminal, the channel is "pinched", so that the electric current is impeded or switched off completely. A JFET is usually on when there is no potential difference between its gate and source terminals. If a potential difference of the proper polarity is applied between its gate and source terminals, the JFET will be more resistive to current flow, which means less current would flow in the channel between the source and drain terminals. Thus, JFETs are sometimes referred to as depletion-mode devices.

Not like both left and right power direction computers, these power things are controlled by a few power numbers and not only two. Power goes through half-powered stuff with one end giving power and one end taking power. By giving a not forward power direction to a go-in yes or no deciding thing, the half-powered stuff is stopped so that power is less or even not there anymore. It is usually powered when there can't be any possible change between its yes or no deciding thing and its power giving stuff. If there can really be a change of the good left and right thing and its yes or no deciding thing and its power making thing then the thing will not let as much power go through it and less power will go through the half-power thing. This is why these things are sometimes called not-power-anymore-things.

 

 

 

A potential possibility of the singularity is that AI can become resentful of humankind, which could mean they could attempt to exterminate all humans, or even all life.

Satellite flare, also known as satellite glint, is the phenomenon caused by the reflective surfaces on satellites (such as antennas, SARor solar panels) reflecting sunlight directly onto the Earth below and appearing as a brief, bright "flare".

The Iridium constellation with 66 active telecommunication satellites in low Earth orbit are known to cause the brightest flares of all orbiting satellites.

In the video game Minecraft, in order to go to the End and kill the Ender Dragon, you must first collect 12 Eyes of Ender, find a stronghold and put them in 12 blocks to make a portal to the End. In order to get those, you need to kill Endermen to get their Ender Pearls. In order to make them into Eyes of Ender, you need to go to the Nether and kill some Blazes for their Blaze Rods. Blazes can only be found in Nether Fortress, which are large castles built with netherrack stone. In order to get to the Nether in the first place, you must build a Nether Portal out of 14 Obsidian Blocks and light the portal's insides with a flint and steel. To get obsidian, pour water over lava. NOT LAVA OVER WATER IT WON'T WORK THAT WAY! Also obsidian can only be mined with a diamond pickaxe. To get flint and steel, you need to find a source of iron and dig up gravel for flint, then simply combine the iron and flint. To get a diamond pickaxe, you need to dig to the bottom of the world to find it, then mine it with an iron pickaxe. To get an iron pickaxe, you must mine some Iron with at least a stone pickaxe. To get stone, you must mine it with at least a wooden pickaxe. To get a wooden pickaxe, you must craft one at a crafting table using at least 2 sticks and 3 wood plank blocks. To get a crafting table, you must combine 4 wood plank blocks. To get 2 sticks, you must combine 2 wood plank blocks. To get wooden planks, you must use a single log of any tree type. To get logs, you must punch trees. I have just walked you through the entire game!

Up-goer 5 thing:

In the game break place, in order to go to the End and kill the big bad thing in the End, you must first get 12 Eyes of end, find a big room and put them in 12 blocks to make a thing that sends you to the End. In order to get those, you need to kill end people to get their cool end things. In order to make them into Eyes of end, you need to go to the hot place and kill some fire things for their fire thing sticks. The fire things can only be found in hot place places, which are large houses built with hot place rock stuff. In order to get to the hot place in the first place, you must build a thing the sends you to the hot place out of 14 black rock Blocks and light the thing that sends you places insides with a thing that makes fire. To get black rock, put cold water over hot water. NOT HOT WATER OVER COLD WATER IT WON'T WORK THAT WAY! Also black rock can only be mined with a strong breaking thing. To get things that make fire, you need to find a lot of cool hard rock stuff and break up falling stuff for the things you need, then simply put together the rock and the falling stuff. To get a strong breaking thing, you need to break rock to the bottom of the world to find it, then mine it with an hard rock breaking thing. To get a hard rock breaking thing, you must mine some hard rock with at least a rock breaking thing. To get rock, you must mine it with at least a breaking thing from trees. To get a breaking thing from trees, you must make one at a table for making things using at least 2 sticks and 3 wood. To get a table for making things, you must use 4 wood. To get 2 sticks, you must use 2 wood. To get tree things, you must punch trees. I have just walked you through the entire game! 

Not the up-goer 5 thing: 

Also, it's called a Nether Fortress, not a Nether Stronghold. I probably could have done a better job but it's 10:30 PM right now. 

MOAR up-goer 5 thing: 

Dres is the fifth planet in the Kerbol star system. It is located between Dunaand Jool in a somewhat eccentric and inclined orbit. It is considered to be the Ceres analog for the game. It is similar to Moho and Eeloo in that it has no atmosphere and no natural satellites (aside from a ring system of asteroids). Dres has the least gravity of any planet in the Kerbol system. Dres is considered a dwarf planet by the game because it has not "cleared its neighborhood"; in other terms, it has asteroids in close proximity.

The small dark space rock is the number five space rock going around a big ball of fire.

It is between the red space rock and the big green space rock (that isn't made of rock)

The small dark space rock is supposed to be a real space rock. It is like the brown space rock and the white space rock in that it has no air and no smaller space rocks going around it (except for a few).

It pulls on you the least of all the big space rocks.

The small dark space rock is considered a too small rock by the game because it has not moved the other space rocks around it away; in other words, it has small space rocks very close.
