And thank you, Colonel.

Good ol' /sci/, instead of baseless bouts of racism like on /b/ or any other boards, here we at least try to provide evidence for our racism. Never change.

Tank cap removed.

remember, all the code to create a human mind fits easily onto a DVD.

Remember, genes are NOT blueprints. This means you can't, for example, insert "the genes for an elephant's trunk" into a giraffe and get a giraffe with a trunk. There are no genes for trunks. What you CAN do with genes is chemistry, since DNA codes for chemicals. For instance, we can in theory splice the native plants' talent for nitrogen fixation into a terran plant.

Eh, she looks cute.

I wouldn't do her, but she looks like someone you could have intellectually satisfying conversations with.

Bombarding a Uranium-235 core with Neutrons cases it's mass to increase, and it becomes even more unstable, splitting into two cores of two elements and the process releases energy in the form of gamma (Radiation), neutrinos and neutrons. The other neutrons from the reaction go to other atoms, splitting them up, mpore neutrons, ad infinitum. We need those elements because they are unstable enough to be fissile.

There's no particular "dangerous" bit: The gamma rays move outward, and some of them are absorbed by the air, which heats the air, and turns it to plasma (Plasma, or fire, whatever), and then there's the plasma/fire expanding and burning everything.

The mushroom cloud thingee is just a characteristic of explosions in atmospheres, this one in particular. Any other explosion makes one, but nuclear bombs are the only ones to create them on a scale large enough for characteristics to be appreciated for longer than a few seconds.

You get close to one and analyze its quantum structure with -- Oh.

Well, I'd like to become an aerospace engineer. Lets see how that turns out. Mass murder, bleh, that's not really my thing.

There will always be some people keeping science... Then it's just a matter of time for those to control the peasants with light and magic...

Oh Sagan, /sci/, we totally should!

I will just leave this here.

The Earth is the cradle of man, but one cannot stay in the cradle forever.
