The entire thread, you still haven't picked at exactly what you find so fantastical about simple automated systems that chew up asteroid rock and spit out reflective lightweight panels, which would be the most 'fantasy' aspect of such a project. Would you prefer we talk about TRANSFORMING AN ENTIRE PLANET'S BIOSPHERE with nuclear reactors over thousands of years? Or just spitting black dust over Mars to reduce its albedo?

>What has Mad Scientist contributed to /sci/:
- Multiple threads a week on stuff ranging from undersea colonization and advances in technology, to space launches, new developments, all-round good science-related content
- Good discussions on undersea colonization, somehow I get the feeling you're one of the people he burned if you tried to assert that colonization will always be expensive and never happen (and then promptly whooped your ass)
- Being a more constructive poster than 99% of /sci/

Horrible - Dead
Bad - Homeless but with a solar backpack, a small solar panel that folds out, and some basic stuff like an electric blanket and a 12V stove top with some batteries. Gotta copy Hole Troll.
'Average' - Contracted to make small music jingles for advertisements/indie games while living with my younger sister and her stupid fat ass kid with the creepy woman from next door officially stalking me
Good - Aerospace engineer, hold some patents
All According To Keikaku - Earn a substantial amount of money off my inventions, enough to start up an Aerospace/Asteroid Mining/Habitat Construction/Space-based Solar company to become a billionaire and use my riches to influence government from behind the scenes toward advancing and protecting humanity, even if it starts to go against my interests. Living on Mars, and dragging the Space Race by its hair to the stars. Effectively start Technocratic Republic of Sci on Antarctica + Mars.

Now give me the link to the scientific consensus that says bringing people back from Mars is damned near impossible. Mars Direct is not given a lot of thought, and is largely unheard of. Weaver and Zubrin worked out a modified version called Mars Semi-Direct which still costs 55 billion over 10 years, which is doable within NASA's existing budget and doesn't involve stranding people on another planet no matter what.

Every time poorly educated self-labelled realists crawl from the woodwork to begin arguments against near post-scarcity, I have to clean up their objectivist cum.

Capitalism won't just die you ignorant fuck, it will be transcended. As autolabour replaces humans in the workforce, there will be huge unemployment which will only continue to worsen until there simply isn't enough consumers to support it anymore. With the new technologies that continuously emerge that will reduce scarcity in all facets of life, capitalism will transition into something superior.

Space is not infinite because big bang can't exactly spew infinite everything immediately.
Time is not infinite if we say that the big bang was the beginning of time.
Multiverse theory doesn't have enough evidence for me to support it.

your implying one must follow the scientific method to be a scientist and that which one is studying is a science.

–noun
1.
a branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws: the mathematical sciences.

I just copied and pasted that.

science coming from the latin 'scientia' which is just knowledge.

science is simply what is known, and it's quite sad that people actually have quite a poor understanding of what science actually is.
