Somebody's gotta stop this. Like, now.

 

 

I seem to recall online a while back there is water on Venus as well

 

Oh! i forgot about that.

 

Venus is uninhabitable. Hell' date=' a late 1990's space study, to which was obsessed and focused on getting photography of Venus's surface, went through 3 space shuttles in various attempts to break through it's atmosphere. Volcanic activity and so forth destroyed the functionality of the space craft in mere [i']seconds.[/i] As such, THERE IS NO FREAKING PROOF OF ANYTHING, BESIDES VOLCANO'S, BEING EXISTENT ON VENUS. It's about as founded, internally, as Jupiter.

 

Mars certainly it can't evaporate like that. It's been proven there's water there

 

Good point:| but if they sent the water to mercury then that would be a differrent story.

 

FROZEN water has been found on Mars' date=' for it's theoretical that Mars was once as tropical as Earth, without the trees. And, hey, here's the Clue Train coming, last stop being you. (<3 Maddox.) If we're disposing water into space as a means of relevance, you wouldn't care, nor direct it, at a specific part of the Universe for it to evaporate. If the primary objective is getting Water the hell off of Earth, it doesn't at all incorporate it [i']evaporating[/i] in space. Which, honestly, in itself, is a laughable ideal.

 

yeah that is TOO close to the sun' date=' not sure if any water has been found there yet

THERE IS NO funking WATER ON MERCURY, OR VENUS. IT HAS SEISMIC, VOLCANIC ACTIVITY ALL THE funk OVER IT, NOT OCEANS, FROZEN OR NOT.

 

yeah that is TOO close to the sun' date=' not sure if any water has been found there yet

[/quote']

 

I just have a theory....what if mecury was a piece of the sun and it was pushed out?

 

You.. Know.. The sun's a star.. Right? As in, it's not made up of the same materials as a planet?.. Right? Tell me you knew that.. Please? Well, incase you didn't, here's something to help you understand. THE SUN DOESN'T HAVE ROCKS ALL OVER IT. It's a gaseous ball made up of Helium, Carbon and so forth. Not. Rocks. Especially spherical ones.

 

exactly what I'm getting at' date=' unless of course when the sun exploded the fragments simply burned out quickly, but if that's true it'd be nightfall right away for the parts of the Earth that's still in the day

[/quote']

 

You know it takes about 52 minutes for the sun's light to reach the Earth? Since, light has a speed as well, and it's not instant? Forget it, I'm assuming you didn't know that. Either way, the sun still doesn't have fragments.

 

And that's the process of creating our own solar energy' date=' although right now we're only prepared for a much less apocalyptic event

[/quote']

 

"Do I dare disturbed the universe?"

 

^Basically, the Universe is completely and absolutely hostile to a race of our level. Other than that, I couldn't care for whatever else you referred to in your post.

 

 

I'm unsure of meteors' date=' but asteroids we're already prepared for. Comets we're certainly not because we'd only get a few years warning

 

[/quote']

 

We aren't prepared for Asteroids for at-least another 20 or so years. Apparently, there's a satellite in construction that's meant to defend the Earth against such a threat. But still, we aren't planning on sending a funking hydrogen bomb at a giant rock, now, are we?

 

Besides. Asteriods hit Earth already. Quite commonly to. However, they aren't of any considerable size to cause any damage. Also, since the Earth is mainly Water and Desert, one such Asteroid hasn't struck any major cities. We've got time based upon chance and probability, I believe. Until a viable defense is achieved, we've got Jupiter's, and Mars's Gravitational pull protected us, as well.

 

For asteroids' date=' we can use nuclear weapons (and don't bother thinking Armageddon movie in 1998, that doesn't work in real life), or turn the sun's energy against it

[/quote']

 

What. The. Hell. We wouldn't use Nuclear weapons against an Asteroid, for our weaponry wouldn't disintegrate it/re-direct it. As well as that, the sun isn't a funking weapon. Grow up.

 

If we actually hit it with a nuclear weapon' date=' all this will accomplish is break the asteroid into smaller chunks, each several miles in length and width.

 

And then instead of one big explosion on the surface we'd have the ultimate cluster bomb hit us

[/quote']

 

That would be worse than just letting it hit us!

 

You know that the ultimate threat of an Asteroid isn't it's impact.. Right? Once again, I'm assuming you don't. But, if possible, smaller chunks are easily better than larger ones, for a larger one has a more negative effect. One normal sized Asteroid would take out quite a large land mass, easily. However, the problem is an Asteroid impact would generate a gigantic dust cloud as a result; to which will block out all sunlight for quite a large amount of time, depending upon the size of the Asteroid. Problem is, most living things will die out before the dust cloud resolves. Including humanity.

 

the porus space will simply absorb the force of the explosion' date=' and the asteroid's trajectory will remain exactly the same

[/quote']

 

Once again, to dependent on the Asteroid's size. Most larger ones are already detoured by the larger gravitational pull of Jupiter, anyway.

 

the porus space will simply absorb the force of the explosion' date=' and the asteroid's trajectory will remain exactly the same

[/quote']

 

And either way it would still hit. But if it was an asteroid made out of dark matter...........

 

This isn't Star Trek, there is no Dark Matter Asteroid. That was just a stupid thing to say.

 

that's the need to use the sun's energy against such an asteroid

YOU CAN'T USE THE SUN AS A FREAKING WEAPON. SOLAR ENERGY IS BARELY STRONG ENOUGH TO POWER MY GODDAMN TOASTER FOR 3 HOURS. This isn't Dragon Ball Z' date=' the sun isn't the ultimate answer to all evil. [/b']

 

Yeah! and if you tried blasting it even with a plasma laser it would take months to even dent it!!

 

There is no Plasma laser's either. Also, plasma is essentially extremely concentrated heat and energy. Thus, a Plasma blast, if conceivable, would would burn down an Asteroid's size, presumably. Wouldn't destroy it, but it'd do more than dent it after a couple of months.

 

years' date=' actually. Trick is not to flick the asteroid away, but gently push it aside

[/quote']

 

No. Plasma. Lazer. To. Make. That. Assumption.

 

I'm really not sure after reading all about it:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter

 

You tell me what you think

 

My cousin said it might cause a ripple in the space time continum [yeah right!]

 

Organic material will never be able to do anything of that caliber. On top of that' date=' Dark Matter would never even come into contact with an Organic organism.

 

I know that' date=' but I'm only saying we won't be alive to tell the story, the next race to come after us can still discover the clues and piece together some sort of story

[/quote']

 

Exactly my point! i mean we figured out a little about the dinosaurs so the next race should figure out the humans. [You know it would be nice to talk on the phone with you right now]

 

Who's to say the next race will be as intelligible as ours?

 

Nothing. At all.

 

That I don't see coming until hell freezes over' date=' since everyone has his/her own POVs.

[/quote']

That will be a cold day! but im glad bush is leaving and obama is coming!

 

Obama isn't that great, to be honest. He's just better than Bush.

 

which in retrospect isn't exactly that far from the truth.

 

Returning to the apocalypse' date=' I'm just not convinced a natural disaster will kill the human race before we do it ourselves

[/quote']

 

The magnitude of a natural disaster to effect 7 billion humans is unconscionable. We'll die out due to universal complications. Yes, Supernova's. So, yeah, I guess I agree with you there.

 

 

I have no intentions of saying that.

 

I'm just saying either the resources run out' date=' or the society's corruption reaches its threshold

[/quote']

 

Corruption promotes individual gain. Not destruction. Anarchy would be the worst outcome of social corruption, and even then, it's not unconquerable.

 

While I believe in life on Mars' date=' I don't see it coming to the point of alien invasion (unlike so many sci-fi movies have tried to show)

[/quote']

 

Lololololol. This post makes your inept level of understanding apparent. Alien's won't be developed to the point of invading Earth. The WHOLE ENTIRE STUDY of life on Mars was on a bacterial level, not looking for green men hiding behind rocks.

 

Bacterial life outside of our own is conceivable. A hostile, and mobile Alien race with intent to invade Earth is not.

 

So, guy's, I sincerely request you get your facts together, since this debate was nearly unbearable to watch.

 

Peace. =).

I know about the bacteria found on Mars' date=' other than the frozen water that's all we've really found there, nothing more.

[/quote']

 

Just to clarify; I said it was a study for bacterial life, not the discovery of Bacterial life on Mars.

 

No such Bacteria was found on the planet, by the way, in both Project Viking and whatever-The-Rover-One was called.

 

We've found plenty on Mars though, mainly in the form of dried up river bed's that suggest it was once similar to Enceladus, one of Saturn's moons.

 

Either way, try not to take my post all that personally. If you didn't know in the first place, that's fine. Next time, however, don't claim to know/theorize what you obviously have no clue about.
