Space Chick Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 The fact that its millions of miles away and can still burn us I would say that the technical answer is "Extremely Hot" Do Aliens exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini welly Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 who knows, space chick? Evidence says long long ago there could have been water on mars, so some sort of life must have lived in the water, even bacteria could count as alien. Can GLOBAL WARMING be solved completely?

majorbloodnock Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Can GLOBAL WARMING be solved completely? Yes. A few nuclear devices in the right place and the Earth's orbit could certainly be altered enough to change global warming to global freezing. Or, of course, using enough nuclear devices'll simply solve all the world's problems terminally. More practically, though, it's worth remembering that you can only "solve" global warming if you believe it to be a problem in the first place. Despite the fact that some species will come and some will go, the ecosystem overall will adapt to changes in temperature (as proved by the continuation of life through at least two ice ages). What's more concerning is whether mankind is one of the species that'll be able to adapt enough. And for a question, how come national and cultural differences don't seem to affect politicians' affinity for corruption? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorbloodnock Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 u are clever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hardly My ability to answer what was asked whilst avoiding giving the information being sought is a constant frustration for my whole family. My poor son, with his plaintive cries of, "Daaaad! That's not what I meant." I'll try a little better. Amending our practices to slow down or reverse the global warming effect will require levels of international cooperation and moral behaviour that have never been seen before. It's possible, but unlikely. Until, that is, we reach a point where the prevailing governments can no longer leave the problem as someone else's legacy. I expect things to get worse before they get better, and the getting better will happen when the biggest offenders see their ticket to being elected again won't come from ecological spin but only from actually acting responsibly. You might have noticed I've little faith in the honour of those who seek to rule, so my previous question still stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. A cell certainly has a nucleus, but nothing surrounding it is moving to any great degree, so couldn't be described as "orbiting". By contrast, each atom in our body does have a nucleus (a collection of protons and neutrons) orbited by particles (electrons), and looks much closer to the sun/planet model. However, electrons are being held in orbit by the force of an electric charge whereas planets are held in orbit by gravitational pull, and there's no nuclear fission or fusion going on in your average atom's nucleus. Question: The UK has certainly taken part in plenty of conflicts since the Second World War, but not many extensive enough to warrant the description of "war", and none significantly threatening the British Isles. When do you think we'll next have to go to war, and over what pretext? And, as a bonus question, can you think of a reason that could morally justify another war?

Space Chick Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Without sounding like a complete looney (and living up to my name as Space Chick ) I think the next time we may need to go to war will be when we have alien visitors to our planet with dangerous intentions. That may be 10 years away, it may be a thousand years away who knows. But in the vastness of the universe, and Earth being a tiny tiny planet I think it would be naive of us to assume that we are the only intelligent life forms in the universe. Another reason I don't think that we will experience another world war as we currently understand it is that there is the nuclear threat constantly looming, and I feel any government would be reluctant to go to a full out war, as you'd be nuked in no time. Lets face it the only people we are fighting with now are those that are trying to get nuclear but aren't yet. Wow, that turned into an essay, I'll shut up now Do you ever think that electric cars will take off in a big way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
