Yeah it probably is, my comment was really about raw deltaV numbers without using gravity assists.

Yeah, you would only need to burn a little bit more on your initial burn, that’s why I said the cost would be similar.

It’s definitely harder to decay the orbit into the sun directly than it is to get to escape velocity. But to play devil’s advocate, there is probably a way to get them into the sun while being a similar cost to escape velocity. All you need to do is burn prograde to a super high aphelion, ride all the way out there to Pluto or whatever and then do a small retrograde burn to bring your perihelion inside the sun’s photosphere. When you then get back towards the sun years later you would slam into it with a sick velocity that I think would be worth the decades-long wait.

It’s just not true though, unless you do an out then in maneuver.

No that’s not really the case, the earth will be destroyed.

She’s the person who managed to be so racist that MTG called her out publically for it, which is honestly quite impressive.

Technically there is no boundary, it’s atmosphere all the way in. But what we might call the “surface” is the photosphere. That is where the density becomes “low” (read not insanely high) enough that light can escape in a free path.

The sun has an atmosphere so there are soundwaves coming out of it. It’s actually all one big atmosphere getting thinner and thinner as you go out just like ours.

It’s actually the exact opposite to what he says. In the US you can do almost anything you want with human remains, while in Europe it’s much more restricted. In Denmark for example, you have to have the body/ashes buried in a licensed cemetery. You can’t keep the ashes yourself, you can’t bury them in your backyard, you can’t spread them at some random special place (except for the sea in rare circumstances).

Well, 9.1% less money, but yes ;)

Unless you’re German or several hundred years old, no, nouns are not capitalized. If you wanna use grammar as part of a political debate, which doesn’t make a lot of sense to begin with, at least make sure to know what you’re talking about.

In an unchecked anarcho-capitalist market, the economically disadvantaged are even more fucked. No social safety nets, no regulation on companies price fixing, monopolizing, etc. So using taxes as some scary Boogeyman just doesn’t make any sense. A strong welfare state is so much better for the little guy.

Sure, but there is a north say 30 ft away from the north pole.

Depends on where they met each other. If they for example fell in love during the main event of a trip to the north pole, that would change things a lot.

I’m more interested in wtf is a “Devin Nunes”?? Almost gives me cow vibes, but idk.

Is this actually real? If so the brain worm thing is not even a joke anymore, they must have done some serious neurological damage because that’s messed up.

Good on her for turning out to be what seems like a very reasonable human being, must be hard coming from someone like him, but I presume he had no part in raising her so maybe it makes sense.

Website for pirating books. A godsend for me during university, where I saved 100s of dollars per semester, while getting the books in a digital format which I prefer.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try

How did you get an invite key? I would love to get one to try it out.
