world religion is important to general education, so long as it is covered in an as close to an unbiased way as possible. It doesn't belong in the science class, ever.
I had a classmate who didn't know that there were other religions besides Christianity. She also found out that I was Atheist *fedora tipping intensifies* and was convinced I was an agent of Satan sent to Earth to corrupt people.
Honestly, I wonder what the fuck her parents taught her.
that poor girl

I wonder if Noelle is proud of creating a forum meme.
It isn't a meme though.

I love how even Vien is falling for the ruse.
or is he?
A ruse within a ruse?
aye.

What happened here?
Assassin challenged my knowledge of space colonization methods.
I'm still not sure whether anything you said was actually real or not.
An apparent force is a force that is only experienced in a non inertial reference frame(when you're accelerating). Rotation about an axis is an acceleration. The apparent force that arises is the centripetal force.
According to Einstein's equivalence principle such a force should be indistinguishable from gravity.
Therefor gravity can be simulated by rotation about an axis.
Look up the Stanford torus and O'Niel cylinder for an idea of what I'm getting at.
Sooo, the idea is to make some UFO-shaped thing that spins around really fast, and that somehow is supposed to simulate gravity? From my personal experience at a fair, all that does is make you stick to the walls.
Pardon me for being stupid, of course.
Well, those walls would be a floor of some sort to the astronauts.
dis guy gets it
It is just high school physics, if you include the formulas.
usually when I math outside serious someone makes fun of me.

you doing politics?
Policy, Politics and Economics.
you poor soul, you may very well have to put up w/ some of that stuff.

I have no idea what any of that means, but alcohol was mentioned, so it must be good.
pcp was mentioned, so must also be sweaty and black.

the Higgs field defines the speed of light
I'm sorry mate but as far we can tell the speed of light is due to the properties of space time itself. The Higgs field is just responsible for lending mass to other wise massless elementary particles.
I read that it was responsible and that the reason the speed of light exists is because it doesn't interact with the Higgs Field.
the reason that photons travel at the speed of light is because they don't interact w/ the Higgs field and are therefor massless, yes. Massless particles(any massless particle) travel at that constant speed by default. I think the constant itself is decided by the properties of spacetime itself, IIRC.
I thought the Higgs Field gave everything mass? Is it just massless particles?
it gives mass to all other elementary particles(quarks, leptons) which are all intrinsically massless, except for certain bosons(photons, gravitons) which for some reason don't interact with it (I can't recall why). Except that begs the question of where it's own mass comes from. . . Actually most of the mass in a proton for example comes from the energy of the strong nuclear bond that binds it's quarks together. The mass imparted to the individual quarks by the Higgs field is actually << than the proton that they make up.
