I read parts of KSR red mars and noticed the same things, it seem like the first hunderd were all teens. With there unreal life times I quess thet could hold off growing up and raising a family. I think if we could live for a thousand years we might spend most of that time like living are 20 or teens fooling around sleeping all day. At the last hunderd grow up and have kids because your out of time. But we dont have that long to live so we grow up fast and become Adults, for many too fast. Then again living for that long you could have hunderds of kids, so maybe there were holding off until mars was ready for their kids. Also some of the seens were down right porngraphic in my view, Nigal being deflowered by his own sister was just sick in my view. They created a little west Virgina under the south pole, all the kids lefth handed sick too, and public unsex baths house were nothing at all. Sounds like a nudist camp to me. Just sick, I was hoping that the government in nothern mars would kill those degenerates. But it was the other way around, they flooded, blow up domes and kill peopled. It made me so mad and sick that I stop reading the book. Bunch of Liberal degenerates screwing each other and killing the good people that respected the Earths natural right to rule mars and to fully terrafrom mars into one big green rain forest. With lots of little starbuck every where!
I am not a animal person, but a plant person. But I do know that on the earth it oceans ph vary greatly, for example earths oceans are really one big one. With currents running from the tropics to the poles on the surface, and cold water sinking at the poles and flowing towards the the tropics. Where the cold water upwells are very productive because cold water hold more o2 than warm and nutreints are sweap off the sea floor that came from the land. These currents are slow and are based on salt conc. and and density.
The PH of the oceans at the poles is mild acid so carbon is in a carbolic not carbonate from, at the upwelling zones and tropics the oh changes to very basic so the carbon srouce is carbonates. So much so that it become supersaturated and marine animals easly precp. it out to from shalls or coral reefs. But have you seen shelled animals in the norths sea, fresh water lakes? Yes of course there are, the animals find another srouce for Ca, and combine it the C to make carbonate for there shells. But not coral, there are no reefs north or south of the tropics of cancer or capircorn, to cold, ph off, and no carbonates. There are softh coral animals though. Another exmaple people live on land there seem to plenty of Ca for there bones other than carbonates.
CaSO4 is a major srource for plants, which we eat and get usable organic Ca to use in this case plants are a intermedate beween minerals and organic Ca. Mineral cycles on mars could be different in many ways depending on what kind of mineral froms of nutrients, like N, P, K is very important to plants. Mars has one big problem wheres all the N, because with out it there will be no life on mars no mater how much we warm it up. Any ways I think the probs should be looking for amoniasulfates, and other salts because to me that is a bigger mystery than why there are no carbonates on mars, wheres the N salts is bigger!
Florida has large sulfate mines and is the main source of rock fertlizer for the us. The condiction that from the evaporate deposites could be a clues to what happened in the drying up of the mars oceans. They found lots of hemite, did they lot for other minerals like phosphate salts that contian N?
Maybe the next probs to mars will look for those minerals.
I have three Citrus trees, grapefruit, orange trees. Where I live we use to get hard freezes into the 20's 30 years ago, but now we hardly get a few nights at 32. Thats because the city of phoenix and its metro have grown outward, creating a large heat island over the city. This heat island has two effects on weather. One durning the summer high temps are 5 degrees higher than average, summers nights are hot. Average Day temp in June is 114 f low 90, I rember nights when is was midnight and it was still 100 degrees out. In the past it would get up to 104 with low in the 70s, but that is the thing of the past at least for pheonix. Outlining areas still cool down in the summer. One strange effect of the heat island is that Phoenix gets most of its rain at night, most place only rain durning the day because of day time heating. The heat island provides the need convection for rain to start.
In the winter the heat island keeps thing mild, so I can grow tropical and subtropical plants easly. FYI Arizona Citrus is far better than Florida OJ, are weather is cool and dry in the winter which makes the orange extra sweet.
In Florida their tree get blown over by huricanes every fall, hot humid weather make terriable citurs. Florida growers just place a lot of ads on tv, Saying how good their stuff is when it realy is bad! Arizona sweeat oranges are some of the best in the world. I know my two trees produce hunderds of pounds in a season. The oranges are ready to pick in Dec. at christmass, so I get to enjoy all the best oranges in world to eat durning the holydays while you losser in the east have to pay money to eat those alful Florida oranges. It just goes to show you people in the east us what a alful depressing place you live in. Clouddy all day, rain ,snow acid rain, TOAY IS SO WARM AND NICE AND WARM THAT I WILL GO SWIMMING!
Florida you could not pay to make me live their its the armpit of America!
Anys off topic, I read once that the chemistry of ealry mars oceans was differnt than earth sea. On mars the sea were not basic enough for carbonate to exist, so that explains why they found little carbonate rocks on mars. Just because there is no limestone on mars does not mean there was no oceans. For a terraformed mars by keeping the PH of the oceans below the ph need for carbonate to from you dont have to worry about that carbon being lots to the rock, so no plate tetonics are need. If the sea on mars are keep acid than anly co2 will be disolved in the oceans. To get the co2 back from the dead live that falls to the bottem, just durge the muck on to the surface. It is alot easyer than blasting limestone from coral reefs. On mars the only reefs would be in aqueriums.
Sound, wave energy moves through denser thing faster. In space there no sound because there is no mater to pass the wave energy. So the more mater there is the faster sound can move because the atoms are closer together. Speed of sound is faster in water than air, like wise sound is fastist in solid rock. Fan you ever put your ear to a railroad track? if you did you can hear trains coming from miles away. Train robbers did this so there were ready to stop the train, they did not need a train times. It is just the basic property of sound, the speed of sound must really great in a nuetron star!
It is a good reason why the continental crust is thicker but less dense than oceanic crust. It would be a good thing is the land started to subduct under oceanic crust we would not have a home! Oceanic crust is made out of mafic basalt rocks that are dense and heavy, cont. are made out of lighter sedimentry, felsic, and metamorphic rocks. In plate tectonics when ocean plate and a cont. plate hit, the denser ocean plate subducts under the lighter cont. plate. The ocean plate melts because it has water in it, rises and comes out on the surface as volconas. It is called a continental volcanic arc. Examples are the Cascades, Andes, and Aeutin in Alsaka.
The moon has all the resources for people just like mars but in fin amounts.
Sunlight is as strong as earths gets, no atmospere to absurb light means more light for solar power. The ices at both of the Lunar poles comes from comets, and coments are drity ices so there should be carbon mixed in with the ices. For that matter many other elements that the moon lacks N,C, so if you mine the ices their will be other good stuf in it to.
A better source of O2 if silcate rocks, water on the moon is too rare to waste on O production.
Power since the moon is not protected from the solar wind, power can be harested from it. If you strech Power lines all the way around the moon, like we do on earth, the electrons fron the solar wind will hit the lines and flow into them. Making power with out any effort, this happens on the earth durning strong solar storms. The ionized praticals that get past are mag field cause the northern lights and black outs. The ionized particals, electrons enter power lines, sense the earth wont absorb them. This effect over a large area generates lots of power, which over loads the power grid and causes black outs. On the moon there no mag field to stop the solar wind, so you dont need a big solar storm to make power. Everyday solar wind would make lots of power.
I just read "Booty Call Unforgiven" it is a story about how African American males realy like back. I think that the waynes brothers are gonig to make a movie out of it. Like booty call 1, the best movie of the 20th century. Not realy but I kid. I did read Rain of gold, Canery row that was good, one about small indian and cow boy coming to life in a magical box and key, wrinkle in time, Boxcar Kids, and others. Thats going back in time to grade school, I dont count text books but I read though western history, Bio book, and many others. Can you name all the book that you read though?
Most people fear GM foods well because their dumb, they know nothing about Gentics mods. So their minds go crazy and think strainge thing will happen like in a movie. In my view they are fools, soon everything will be GM that is alive.
People will just have to learn to deal with it like all the other science stuff in our modern age. Like cell phones, or the internet.
No I live in Phoenix AZ, Deer Valley.
I have been to Seattle once, it is an old style city. It is very compact, the Seattle Tecoma metro has 3.5 million people the same size of Valley of the Sun metro were I live. I was surprised by how small of a area it spread out. Phoenix is realy spread out compared to Seattle.
Also it is nice there in the summer, but most of the year it is a bad place. It is green, wet, and humid things that make me sick. When I was there all that green made my eye hurt, and sick. I was so happy when I got back to the great basin, give me brown, dust, and dry air! Thats why I like mars so much, it is one big desert world, putting green on mars would make me sick too.
Fear hate, lies are the Democrats core vaules. You hit it right on the mark, I quess Democrats are their own toughest jugde!
Earthfirst will side with Earth of crouse, and the USA because I am a citzeen of the republic!
Those mars people need to be taught a lesson for shedding American blood!
Mars will turn even redder with marsin blood, No one can out Terr a Terrian!
:laugh:
Their will be no Islamic empire, America wont let it happen.
I think that a repersentive Republic would work well, where state, and persons rights are protected from the federal gov. A weak federal gov is very important, otherwise it get too much power. Thats what happened in the USA, and the main reason why the civil war was fought. Not slavery!
I think that Bush will start to enforce the borders more, or maybe not?
Geting prolife judges onto the supreme crout will be a major victory for bush.
Reforming of the tax system, flat tax, national sales tax, no federal taxes. Instead force other countries to pay us money to not invade them, lots of nation did that in the past.
Also making missile defense, to protects use from china, north korea.
Bush has a big job ahead of him, will make good on his word.
I made that up about Mormons, but on a sixty minutes special report a gay morman did under go reeducation. Not church supported too, Yes mormons or kicked out of the church all the time. Mostly young men, by older ones that want to keep young girls to them selfs. That the sect in Colorado city Arizona, which had many timetimes articals about the abuse, teenage boys forced out town by the local police.
You most be one of those jack Mormons that are very lack, I rember a lot of them lived in St. John AZ near Tombstone. Basical anything went like animals fornicating in a barn.
As for the blue states leaving, thats just not possible any more thanks to the civil war. After that the laws were changed so that no state could ever leave the union agian.
Thank the Repbicans for stoping the Demscrats back then and now from breaking the USA apart. Republicans savedthe day!
Liberals Dems are just mad that they lost, no big deal theres ways another election. It gives them time to rethink their ideas, Republicans did the same thing after the two losses against Clinton in the 1990's. Republicans learned from their defeat, and won with good ideas.
I think if the Dems just throw Hilary Clinton up for presidental run in 2008, they will loss. They most forget the past and move on.org, and come up with new ideas. Instead of the tired old social liberalism from the 1960s.
Mormons can only have one wife, one male to one female. Mormons stop multiple wifes when ferderal government forced them too. Now only separte sects pratice multiply marriges, they live in Colorado city Arizona, mexico, and other places.
It is a big joke in Arizona because people make fun of mormons and Utah for having multiply wifes. But most of the mormons that have mult. wifes live in Arizona. Arizona Governor a democrate liberal woman has done nothing to stop it, she for woman rights but just not right now. :laugh:
There are no Gay Mormons, any Mormon found to be a homosexual is sent to a reeducation camp in Mexico, were they are cured. Or stoned, hang, wiped, to death, this is a well kown fate of many homosexual mormons, usualy they they go by their own free will. Because it is seen as a mental disorder, sin before God, that if not cured they will never get to go to heaven with their family. If not cured excommuncation with the family and all other members of the church. Gay to mormons is not takin lightly, so dont make fun.
There are many mormons that wont go to hevean because the devil has made them mentally insane with gay. Just ask any Mormon and you will get the same answer.
As a Luthern I don't think your sexualty sould define you, to me no one is gay, homosexualy, bi sexual, or bestlover. All that is nonsense, you are a human. If you are male you inpregnate female humans, female are inprenated and have childern. Humping or loving things that wont make kids is evolutionary dead end. All that matters is that you pass on your genes, any way you can do that is evolutionary right. Their is no right or wrong when it comes to life any goes to life and pass on DNA. Getting away from that is mental insane, because it is counter productive. Drawn rules my vaules, look at the animal kingdom. Do lower life froms waste in deceding their sexualty, no!
Moral degenerates liberals in my view are insane, in their mind the prevert everthing so far that it losses it meaning, function, and Holyness.
Whats the new USA?
Most freshmen have to take some science in college, bio 101 would be a good choice because it opens their mind to the scientific methods. I din't waste time in basic bio I went streight to advance. In bio 181 I got a A, 182 to B because I dont like animals and we had to indentify the scientfic names of the animals from bacteria, invertabrates, up to mammals.
I am a plant person, so when I transfered to ASU. I found out they had PLB 200 counts the same as college bio but its plants only. Ohh well, but at least I know the most about animals in my PLB "plant sciences" classes.
If you realy want to learn try extent-extant plant phlogency crouse, I never thought the world was so complex.
Their are a alot of mormons at my school, dont brong up evolution if you dont want to be bettin up good! But having ten wives tires them so I am safe. :laugh:
Solanum tuberosum are good at feeding large amounts of people when you have limited land to work with. For that matter all the stracy stables are great, Manioc Esculenta, Dioscorea spp, Ipomaea batatas, Colocasia Esculenta. These strachy stables provide a lot of food but many of them are lacking in vietmens. But Dioscorea spp does have vietmen A.
Better solontion would be to add genes to your food crop that would make the lacking vietmens. Example Golden rice genes from daffadills were add to rice that make the recursor of vietmen A. Also their are all ready nutriently advanded crops right now that people dont eat, like Tritcales Rye X Bread wheat. Tricales make great bread but have the extra protiens and vietmens that ryes have. But Tricales are mostly grown for animal feed.
Gm plants coupled with growth system that uses all the plant parts would work well to feed people, a cycle. For example Strachy stables and grains are grown in a field that get irragated from a fish pond. Fish eat the plant part people cant like stems and leave, fish return wastes to plants though irragation. People return waste to plants with rice swamp that fliters water.
Closed system, all mater is conserved and recycled though the systems animals. That means peoples waste most be returned too. Just in real life, That poo will become a sandwich then back to poo, ant life wonderful, the co2 you breath out at one time was part of an organic molcule of another animal or plant. So dont bashful of the mess you leave, embrace it because some day it will become a butter fky, or another person. :;):
I am not a Troll, I am a Human too just like you silly!
Mad Grad Student dont be late for showing up for the happy fun reeducation camp now, I would hate to see deported to cannada that waste land. Wacthing hours of Nascar, Porkys, and the man show will cure you of the PC liberalism that you have. Really liberalism is a mental disease, just like markism.
Did you hear how the french reacted? One sed how can 59 million Americans be so dump? Here America we respect others right to chose, we dont call them dump, we disagree with each other choices but making fun of the choices is bad and most Americans dont do. That the difference from a Liberal french man that crazzy, and American that have different views. It just sick just because people dont think, or belive, vote the way you think they should does not make them dump. No good Eurotrash yellowbellie wackos, they will be the death of Europe.
Anyways I hope Bush will use his mandate from the election to get things done that his voters want. Like stoping illegal alians dead at the border, more tax cuts and reform, protecting America from terr, jailing Mechael More, ACLU under the reco act. Stop trail lawyers from getting big suits on medical corps, hospitals. Bring back the drafth, and teach the youth of our nation so order and respect. Invading cuba, north Korya, Sryia, and any othe nation that stand in our way. America needs breathing room!
Dickbill congrads on your new life, I hope you do well in Dallas.
Be careful Texans dont like hearing how good NYC begals are, they are just too small for a Texan.
Victory is mine! You are under the control of our great leader Bush and Dick. To the people in the blue states please report to the reeducation camps as soon as possible. You will enjoy arts and crafths "making wallets", Exterme sports "forced to mine gold in the sub artic, spa treatments "tested on by the corperate drug companys. Last great shows "forced to wacth so you cant colse your eye lids, hours of Nasacar racing. The hypnotic like racing will get cure you of PC. Top off with beer and sunday prys, that the first day.
"We dont like will and grace, and you will too."
For the hard core blue people like Mechael More hanging will cure them for good. Other activites will include whiping, baseball, and a all you can eat meat bar for Peta, vegians, and greenpeace. Made from wood from an old growth redwood forest. Whale and baby seal will be the main crouse, with sides of pork, beef, and some dogs. With fur napkins from endangered aniumals.
For the ACLU ers their tounges will be cut out, and forced to live in the sanitational ducts.
Finally Hilary Clinton will be lock in a room with Bill Clinton, who ever lives thourgh the night gets to be king of the liberals. Two men enter, one man leaves that the thu8nder Dome. Any blue people who dont show up for reeducation will be banished to Cannada for all time, death is preferd to that. So the Bush red people will let you die if you rather not be forced to live in such a bad country. Also woman will be free of voting since it just confused them any ways.
Bush new plan for America sound great, I hope all those blue state people enjoy their vaction too reeducation campe.
Just joking, but the election really tell us how much the cluture war has divided our nation. I hope liberals and conservitives will work together for whats best for all America, we can fight after we have won the war on Terr. :up:
I predict that Bush will win Idaho, Arizona.
Looks like FL goes for bush with 90% reporting Bush still leads by 5% margin. Also Mg, Ws might go for bush too, Gore won those right?
My dad 62, Iam 21, I dont know a lot of old people over 35 besides my parents. But every one gets old in time so it does not realy matter how old you are, but how you live.
Looks like Bush will win FL, MG, and WS. I looked at the west cost Kerry will win CA, OG, Wash thats about 73 votes. Bush should be able to up that with FL, MG, MN. Strange how things go?
You folks are dreaming, bush will win by a wide margin tomarrow. At my local batist church every one was prying for a Bush victory, then we burned pictures of Kerry in a large bond fire. It was very pretty, it reminded me of all those book, cd, and french flag burnings of sunday school. Ah theres nothing like signing songs to the light of a bond fire of Mechial More moves, or Clintons books. I diegress as a wise man once said, no one likes a word smith. Bush will much more than the 270 votes needed, then we can all thank God for saving us from that monster wife of Kerry Thersta or what ever that no good boar name is.
I bet .01$ that budh will win
Yes you are right by the time mankind starts to move planets around like marbles, they would have all ready founded new homes around younger stars, or smaller longer lived stars like K types even red darths or in the atmospheres of brown darths. Still if there are still people around I think they will be senimental about their old home solar system, even though they moved well beyond are wildest imangations. The best part about a long vacation is returning home back to where the heart is. So saving the earth, helping life evolve in the new worlds by saving them from evaporation. Will be high on their list, also exporting earth life to other exoworlds that are dead will be important to. The greatest thing mankind could is become a force that brings life to a dead universe, populating thousands of dead worlds with life so it can evolve too. That idea is a big force with the terraforming mars crowd, why stop there? There has too millions of dead worlds just waiting to get life just like mars.
Maybe some alian race brought life to are early earth, mars, vense just because they thought life was important too. Look what happened one place life took off and here we are, there no reason why we cant do the favour for another dead world.
Yes that is all very fun to think about, will humans race live on far into time. Or will burn out like a canndle in the wind? Or will we blow up like an articial sun.
But my point was not weather Humans will be around in 4 billion years. It was that the live zone or habital zone as human centric people put will move farther out. All the way to Neptune and the KB planets. For as long as 100 million years our sun will be a stable red gaint. I was thinking could live get started and evolve on these new water worlds. Or will humans have all ready terraformed them, and imported native terra life forms? Also should we move inner plants out of the reach of the red gaint sun to save them.
If there are human there are not does not mater, but life does. For example Europa might have life, when the ice melts life will have a chance to evolve and spreed.
Think out side the Human life, and a whole new universe opens up for you.
I was reading a story in magizene in which they reveiwed the life cycles of stars. Solar massed like our sun, and massive 15 sol mass suns. With one sol mass there is a long stable period were lumisty stays the same 12-10 billion years. Our sun is middle aged so we have like another 4 billion years untile our sun goes red gaint. With 15 mass stars they use up their H fule up fast, then burn He, C, O, N and upwards to Fe at that point the star cant burn any more. At it core the massive star implodes due to that that they is no push out from radiation, gravity wins. But also it said that it so hot that Fe atom fall apart into there amtomic parts into nuetrunos. That preced the super nova. Once the core implodes the outer layers expand in a large expolsin.
With our sun it goes to a red gait phase once it starts burning He. Now this phase will be stable for millions to a billion years depending on the star mass.
The life zones for a red gaint will be farther out then our current one, it said it would be Neptune and Kepler belt.
Could there hunderds of oceans moons and worlds in the making? This worlds are rich in water and organics like the earth, plus there will be no bombardment like the early earth had. So life will get a good start fast and wont have start over again after every big hit like the earth did. Even better people could just bring advanced life from the earth to save it from dieing in the red gaint glare.
The red gaint phase of are sun brings into a whole new time, will life embrace it like the yellow phase?
Another factor is that when the sun goes red gaint it will expand and losing its hold on the planets a little bit, this will save the earth from being burnt but it will still be too hot for life. Should we move the earth and others to save them from death? Example the earth would be a goble maga sea in space,
Mars a hot venus like place witha thick co2 atmosphere, so much for all those terraforming efforts! Juptors, and other gas gaints moons ocean worlds. Pluto with the temperature of 80 F, sedna the same. Who will embrace this new solar system I dont know, but it is neat to think about!
