They're just looking down and whether it's Harry Potter, Star Wars, or religion and politics they're just like, "Why are they saying that? Why are they doing that? That isn't real, I don't understand why they put so much time and effort into these things that are false." Blindsight was cool about that idea, like how archeologists try to put together how past people lived by sorting through ancient trash. there are space nerds trying unscramble our signals and constructing an image of humanity through the lens of Baywatch and The Price is Right

Pontificating rear end posted:Actually I'm going to describe the Bob Lazar interview for the lazy goons one of his pet theories is he leaked word of element 115, or Moscovium, and that it's a component of the gravity engine/reactor and is the real secret everyone is trying to keep under wraps https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscovium his latest documentation of this malicious intent is a 12 min conversation he had with a dude discussing it, but they kept their phones on and on their person (after Snowdens leak about the extent of smart phones used as surveillance devices) and suddenly he was raided by the FBI or w/e. still seems like bs

his reasoning for element 115 was as fuel for the gravity reactor since isotopes of it are on the island. but yeah anti gravity anything is just another preputial motion machine, also it's implications as a weapon are what the govt would research first and could you imagine being able to create relativistic artillery??? crazy!!!

Pawn 17 posted:If aliens arrived, we’d probably all be either eradicated, enslaved or if we were lucky, given access to technology that let us travel the galaxy. Probably the former though. Just imagine what we would do to aliens if we found them on another planet. just look at human history and how technologically advanced cultures interacted with 'new world' peoples. the very last thing anyone would, or should, do is give us advanced technology. except for space weed. im totally down for space weed.

aliens are just waiting for us to make Giga-Weed and then they'll come in and chill out alternatively, they are waiting for us to develop a weapon that would make us players on a galactic scale and then they'll subjugate us cause no one wants a naked ape with a gun running around

skooma512 posted:Why would Darpa operate top secret drones near an aircraft carrier? You would read in the captain at least, or go somewhere else, because they're going to notice. They have the best radar and sonar systems available and know how to use it. pretty good proof of concept for a new type of stealth aircraft is having multiple trained professionals not know what the gently caress they just engaged with

LanceHunter posted:I remember hearing a physicist put it this way: "Yeah, people used to think that powered flight was impossible or that breaking the speed barrier was impossible. So why shouldn't it be the same with exceeding the speed of light? Because when people didn't think flight was possible there were still birds out there flying through the air. When people understood what the sound barrier was and thought it couldn't be exceeded, there were already bullets going faster than the speed of sound. But we have no examples of anything ever breaking the speed of light." the thing about light is that we use it to see or detect things, so anything that can break that speed limit is most likely completely imperceptible to us or we confuse it with other phenomenon. if you can go beyond the speed of light, you could essentially just teleport around points of the universe with no way of actually perceiving that something is moving. furthermore;
