Re: DEEP IMPACT

lets hope this one doesnt end up like that mars lander they screwed up. nothing like doing the calculations in feet, and then programing the thing in meters. WOOPS.

Re: DEEP IMPACT

Thanks the link,and i saw this Film!! :lol:

Re: DEEP IMPACT

yeah great film although i preferred deep throat, the acting is way better. :lol:

^ :CrackUp:

Re: DEEP IMPACT

Question is, why are they testing this probe? Is armageddon right behind it. :Down:

Re: DEEP IMPACT

i have a feeling they are trying to prevent something.

Re: DEEP IMPACT

If so then good. I think it is just an attempt to finally see what a comet is really made of. I mean, they are relics from the beginning of time. Why not see what it can tell us about the universe. That is some serious shit though. I read somewhere that the probe itself travelled 5000 miles to meet the comet...and it hit a moving target from that distance. [b]A 23,000 mph moving target!!!!![/b]

Re: DEEP IMPACT

and i can't hit the toilet half the time.

America! FUCK YEAH!!

Re: DEEP IMPACT

But you know [b]all[/b] that we do is invade peaceful, innocent, fun-loving countries for their resources and make shitty sci-fi movies, right?

:roll:

Actually this whole thing is absolutely mind-blowing. Can't wait until they are able to uncover what was found. With the WMAP looking back in space to when the universe was only 400,000 years old, this is an amazing step.

Re: DEEP IMPACT

Yeah, you've got it dude. We actually have physical evidence that is billions of years old now. It took us crashing a probe into a frickin' comet...but we've got it now. I can't wait to see what they find in there. Sits on hands

Re: DEEP IMPACT

How do we have physical evidence. We can't go out to this thing and get the evidence, so it's all really just a bunch of talk. It's like those Mars rocks that people were selling a few years ago. How the hell did those things get here???

I'm all for pushing science, but this whole comet thing was pretty dumb in my mind. Why not use that money to make the space station bigger to help those up there.

Re: DEEP IMPACT

Pieces of comet + first hand analysis = physical evidence

I wish I could blow up $333 million in tax dollars.

Re: DEEP IMPACT

Are you really missing it...I know I'm not???
