IF the earth was flat
then why can we sail in the opposite direction.
Why does astrology prove it's not.
Ayy. Lmao.

Then the earth would have edges which someone would have documented over the years, and the distance to travel between USA and Russia wouldn't take such a short time

Easy. It will never be economically feasible so we don't have to do jack shit.

>>It's already possible.
No.

The rest is not worth an answer. Have a sage.

No

Illuminati aliens are keeping us quarantined on our own planet till we either learn to live in peace or kill ourselves. That's why we're not allowed back on the Moon.

kek

where are all the hard classes in these majors? you really think these compare to legitimately difficult courses that scientists take?

>legitimately difficult courses that scientists take?

Or chemE, or nukeE, or civil for that matter.

The Apollo missions did that in the 60s.

>personal craft capable of independent vertical liftoff.
His questions was really specific.

>>7741682
we don't have magic fairy dust propulsion

iirc he refuels a couple of times in the series
but the engine is so rampantly powerful and fuel efficient that it's completely outside of any technology we currently have

>>7741782
Insert anally and you're done.

Don't kill yourself senpai, it's a mortal sin.

>>7741782
You're a real dick if you do it. The shit you put on your family. Don't be such a fucking coward. Things were much worse in the past and for your ancestors. You have no right to even contemplate suicide you fucking coward

>will people stop being racist when they realize skin color doesn't matter

Containment board now please and thank you.

>>7746005
Can you not read cuck?

>inb4 >>>/pol/

This is a valid question for this board. I want to hear /sci/'s opinions not /pol/'s.

>>7745992
Our opinion?

Race is not used in biology anymore, not even for other species than humans. The concept has no scientifc meaning anymore.

If you want to discuss race, give us a rigorous definiton of it to do so

>>7740637
You mean CS, not programming, right?

For CS, you probably need to be pretty decent at math. I.e. you've made it through linear algebra and other upper level maths. For programming, you just need like fucking pre-calc or some shit.

personally i think it's not the math itself what you need, if not the mind that allows you to be good at math...

Is +ve number better than -ve number?
Is higher complexity > lower complexity?
Is more information > less information?

>>7739956
No, ethics is a human concept after all.

>>7739987
So is math.

Help pls. I need to know

Speed of light. And those objects are light.

>>7745254
Speed of light + speed of light = 2 speed of light.
Simple relative motion.

>>7744680
It's extremely explosive.

Do you want some Arab going Allahu akbar and driving a portable nuke to your house?

We have to wait until the jews have made enough shekels on available fuel. Also hydrocarbon fuel will never run out, just fossil fuel.

Economics is the future.

You can't just throw hydrogen into a car, you have to make the fuel first.

That would require renewable energy infrastructure first to be sensible.

How many solar powered hydrogen fuel factories do you see?

>if your legs were that powerful in the first place you could simply land on the ground and survive

I suspect this is not the case.
Your legs and spine would absorb the energy of the wall, causing massive trauma.

If you, however, pushed off the chair, you would be imbuing it with your kinetic energy. The chair would be obliterated, you would survive.

Always jump with furniture. It maybe save your life.

>>7743990
It is impossible. You'd be moving too fast, and your legs wouldn't be able to create enough downward force to slow you to a safe speed. But I'm assuming you're just trolling, so carry on.

>>7744013
Imagine if you will, Chun Li, in a similar situation.

There is nothing wrong with the physics, is the point.

Leave it to biologists to be shit at jokes.

It's 2015, grandpa This is how we quirky redditor millennials do things in 2015. Don't like it? Too bad.

Also, I just fucking love science.

>>7742847
A REAL HUMAN BEAN

String theory, Quantum gravity.

Gravity

cold fusion

Yes. You should have been taught this in grade one. Fucking retard

>>7745540
False. Retard.

No, it is not. Nerves fire off pretty fast,, yes, but remember they have to convert electrical and chemical energy every step of the way. It happens pretty fast, but not near the speed of light.

thanks m8. I apologize for not knowing the ins and outs of this place, only been here a couple of times.

Undergrad chemical engineering here. I recommend the following books:

For thermodynamics:

Engineering and Chemical Thermodynamics by Milo D. Koretsky
Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics by J. M. Smith

For transport phenomena:

Transport Phenomena by R. Byron Bird

Try the last editions, but the old ones must be fine too.
