Look, I cannot explain in few enough words to retain your attention whilst I school you, so just do what I told you to do before someone actually does it for you.

He would always come home with space exploration magazines, and together we would go over the most exciting updates of the space program. Tyson is like Carl Sagan in that he has a way with words that, when combined with his experience as an astrophysicist, points out the beauty and majesty of space exploration.
I grew up not knowing that anyone had ever considered space exploration to be tied with atheism or antitheism. My dad was strongly Christian and he studied that religion almost as much as he studied space. I was brought up as a Christian, and I never saw any cognitive dissonance between believing in God and exploring space. In fact, if anything, it seems more confirmation of His wonder than anything else. Perhaps one of the biggest things that pulled me away from religion in my early years was the realization that people at my church wanted me to stop exploring. So maybe I left Christianity not because I felt it was incorrect, but because I felt it had bad ethical teachings.

And they cannot actually address each other, each has their own domain and when one crosses into the other it causes this kind of friction. Part of the problem is that we live in an era where technology is advancing faster than theology can react which is what I think if bringing it to the foreground like this.

Yeah about the Vatican. Sadly, these anti-science loons tend to be Protestants from Southern American States. I blame the education system and preachers both. -áGÇ£The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.GÇ¥-á-á - Oscar Wilde |

Well the alternative is whats happening in Europe where Theology is collapsing like my last attempt at a flan. Probably is the education system, its covering too many bases that Theology relies on to cover the less believable parts. There was a chap called Thomas Jefferson who edited out the Bible to remove the supernatural elements and leave the moral arguments.

i'm afraid the ideas behind science are considerably older than that.
what christians did with science was try to use it as a tool to prove their worldview. earth centric universe and so on, for example. even though the greeks knew that was total bullpoo millenia beforehand. but religion played its part in the forwarding of science. no argument there. islam in particular. but once it became clear that this existence was far more complicated than their views allowed for...therein lay the rub. and the gap has grown ever wider since then. |

Fun fact, Islam was at its heyday the biggest driver of social and technological advancement. There are texts in Baghdad that were translated into Arabic (a derivation of latin) that compiled much of the worlds knowlege, form the Mogul Empire's Hindu theology to the entire knowledge we have today of the Greeks which was preserved by them.
Algebra was created as a mathematical system to simplify Islamic inheritance laws and many of the named stars are translations from the Arabic texts built upon by the European astronomers that came later. Then they went into a Dark age when the fundamentalists started gaining traction and... yea they are slowly coming back from that at the moment, fundamentalism in any ideology is bad and free movement of ideas and capital is good.

Please do not indulge in these freebies by debating this guy. No form of credit is earned in explaining the things he got wrong. He is in a metaphorical deep null in a verbal ibis and popping him is just as unrewarding as it is easy.

lol miz.
speaking of the original intent of this thread though. the idea for asteroid mining is awesome. the possibility for near infinite materials to advance is very tantalizing. the only issues are cost effective measures to get at them. i don't think we are at the technological level yet to make use of the idea. nor will we be. until we arrive at some sort of unification to purpose. |

My dream is to work on these asteroid mining projects, trying to figure out how to get involved in them. I've been fielding questions tentatively about looking at doing a Doctorate in something related. I'm doing Structural Engineering for my undergrad, looking at Aerospace Engineering for a Masters... Hopefully Zero G structures for the last part.
Put the Engines at the front of the damn ship for starters, put the spine into tension and vector the thrust slightly off (say 3 degree's off the direction of thrust to keep the exhaust from hitting the ship) to save on mass by a fair fraction.
If anyone knows anything about these kind of Academic things and has advice I appreciate it all

Its funny you said that, I just made a rocket like that in Kerbal Space Program. Although I messed up the staging and it exploded about 3 minutes into the flight Set Lasers for Fun!!! |

Well metals work like that, Steel is better in tension by a long shot than it is in compression. I reckon the first spaceships will be like hanging tents using metal ropes supporting a Biglow style inflatable canopy than what scifi brought us up on.
Also, just googled Kerbal Space program : interesting.

Did you watch the stream of the presentation about roid mining at FF?
I was surpriced to see how little it actually required. It is actually easyer to get to the nearest roids and back than it is to go to the moon and back and yet we managed to do the latter about 50 years ago. We will never forget you Saede!
