He doesn't get one before 2050. IIRC, he went into theoretical physics and did some work on confinement theory.

Good question.

The explanation's particularly boring- I'm here observing the scientific community's reaction to the news that neutrinos aren't faster than light after all.

what happens tomorrow

>> No.4397219

>>4397215
nothing much. Things aren't announced for a few days.

And yeah, it sounds like a cop out- but I can't give you a date. There are people who will make wagers over this, telling them when it happens is going to have an irreconcilable effect.

A new president gets elected before a war can start, and uses some of Israel's more, ahem, controversial actions to lever them into submission - Which Israel promptly uses to elect a far right president, and go to war. It's a conventional battle, and only lasts a few days. Iraq are not best pleased.

I don't know any more than you do- I mean, we sent more probes, but I haven't exactly studied the results.

Depends what you define by major.

Next major international event? the London olympics. Next major scientific event? the neutrino announcement, of course. Next unexpected major event? HSBC are liquidated.

Can you go forwards and backwards?

>> No.4397258

>>4397249
Everyone can go forwards, lol

But yes. My transport back came with me, without going in to too much detail my brain gets digitised, then I spend a few years oscillating in the asteroid belt. My ship gets detected in 2015, but nobody guesses what it is, so I have no problem there.

I can't explain the method by which I got here, because it relies on physical discoveries you have not made yet.

No.
