Legislators being logical and sensible is indeed to be hoped for, but I guess that's a discussion for elsewhere.
How about jurisdictions outside the EU? I wonder if the anti-EU faction in the UK will oppose such legislation just to be contrarian. The US...
It depends on the jurisdiction. It's technically illegal where I live, although I've never heard of anyone being prosecuted unless they start...
I concur but it's skirting close to contravening board rules.
A similar ethos to Stanley Kubrick and the opposite of those like Lucas who kept on tinkering. It's artistically valid, but it must frustrate the...
The speed of the solar wind varies roughly between 350 and 700 km/s, so roughly 0.001c to 0.002c. Harness that and you have a free ride out to the...
Well. those two are important if you want to go somewhere and stay when you arrive. :ouch:
Well, I'd guess Paul and Chani have to get back together for the sake of the franchise. The box office receipts must flow. Perhaps his vision...
Perhaps the best Lovecraftian stories are not written by Lovecraft. For example, I find "A Colder War" by Charles Stross much more existentially...
As the force due to solar light pressure is about 7.8 newtons per square kilometre of sail at 1 AU and decreases as the inverse square of distance...
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) - in reality, any base will likely adopt the time zone that its Earth-based Mission Control thinks most practical...
I keep wondering whether the overall story is actually an allegory about China and its relationship with the rest of the world. Are the San-Ti a...
It's becoming apparent that mathematical fields such as geometry, number theory, combinatorics and category theory are probably fundamental to the...
^Fasinating. Goldbach's Conjecture is that all even numbers greated than 2 are the sum of precisely two primes. It has been demonstrated for all...
I found the following video on spinors helpful. It's the introductory video in a series. [MEDIA] As for twistors, let's ask Roger Penrose, who was...
The San-Ti really do like monologuing, don't they? They remind me of the Mysterons. However, as they don't comprehend [SPOILER], perhaps that's to...
The excitations described are analogues of spin-2 particles, a property shared with gravitons (theoretically), but they are not gravitons. They...
Before plate tectonics started up around 3.5Ga ago*, there were probably more of both varieties of vents and these might have occurred anywhere....
Whatever is dramatically necessary works. It's just oddballs like me who notice.
I think you may have misinterpreted what I wrote. No one can know what another person or animal sees. The sensation you describe as sepia might...
