  1. ^ True that
    Newtons 1st law of motion (law of inertia) if im not mistaken.

    Kerbal Space Program is a fun little game to dabble with space travel
     
  2. ^ very space minded person I am :)
     
  3. No, can you link me to something? That'd be an interesting read.
    Considering we're going to destroy the earth sooner or later, I say exploring other planets is better done sooner rather than later.
    True, but considering orbit around the earth requires you to move some 17.5k kilometers an hour, and you would need to speed up even faster than that to slingshot out of the earth gravity and then have enough fuel left to make any corrections once you enter space, then enough fuel to enter orbit and slow down for the gravitational pull of Mars so that you don't fly by, then have enough fuel to slingshot out of Mars gravity back to earth, the more fuel the merrier.
     
  4. Space pootato
     
  5.  he stole that from me :(
     
  6. Actually don't need a load of fuel you not heard of solar sails?
     
  7. Yeh mars one.
     
  8. They've already got the volunteers.
    Basically they're going to set up massive atmospheric domes to regulate the heat and air quality. They wanted to launch the first few supply ships in the next 10 years or something ridiculous.

    Anyway, Trump will get us there.
     
  9. They have the volunteers. Just not the tech or the funding to actually send anyone by 2035.
    They're "hoping" they will.
     
  10. Hmm. Sounds like a load of crap 
     
  11. Space. Look at all that space in space.
     
  12. I would live in Jupiter
     
  13. The biggest flaw in space travel is limited to speed. Keplar 452 a similar planet to earth out of reach. Maybe the clue for space travel is from the past. Ezekiel built a platform for a craft to land on. A God and angels of light stepped out according to his records. Apollo was known to take spring trips to a north land in a ball of light. Positive and negative ions controlled suggest even time can be slipped. They got bored with us and moved on. We need their blueprints to catch up.
     
  14. So basically, your telling us to do science? Imma stick to Star Wars.
     
  15. Go take a lap, Kezarah.
     
  16.  the first part is very possible, based on the rotation of Mars and the entry point of the Hermes.

    The second part however realistic, not very plausible.
     
  17. same here!
