Maybe in 100 years, I'll still be alive.

You can't prove that statement is wrong, you can only prove it is irrelevant.

Shall we archive this thread?

Hmmm, I wonder if we'll discover bacteria around hydrothermal vents that are helpful for terraforming Venus...

yeah, you need to apply a huge force to get the ball through the seal.

The other form of 'living with the planet' is not an option.... at least not without a nanotech singularity.

Another reason why we should focus on carbon is because it is the 4th most abundant element in our galaxy.

The ability to form 4 bones is just one reason among many. Catenation and the ability to form stable double bonds are more important. I think the ability to form aromatic compounds is a huge plus, a lot of biological photochemistry is dependent on double bonds and aromatic compounds. Carbon also forms reasonably stable bonds with a very wide variety of elements.

Silicon forms weak double bonds. Heavier elements are even worse.

I think you missed the zone refining step. Or do they not use it anymore?

Silly protesters... Nuclear energy will our most important source of energy soon. Used Fuel rods should be reprocessed into more fuel. France is doing it right.

I was also thinking about the difficulty of proving the existence of gravitational waves. As in what forms of evidence would be needed to support a wave theory of gravity over a simpler classical theory. I think measuring the speed of gravity is the way to go.

But are gravitational waves traverse or longitudinal waves?

OP's pict is not too bad. Replacing the word 'chemistry' with physics would help.

But truly, what is free will?

>>Gases that cannot go through solid objects: All of them

Totally false. Hydrogen can easily pass through palladium.
Helium can diffuse through many solids.

I'm amused. It seems that those Tea baggers who won had little in common with the wackjobs who lost. Politics is going to get more interesting...

=x This is getting boring. Is this really /sci/? Is it a good trick or a cheap trick?
