Extraterrestrial Intelligence

 because they ate an apple.

No where in the bible does it say the forbidden fruit was an apple. just more proof you havent read the bible and dont understand it

[bvughtoonice]

Life and death one and the same

Extra terrestrials attempting communication in the brain

Our dreams and thoughts receiving glimpses of the future

Creation evolution annihilation reincarnation all the same

Keep on keeping on

QuakeN and bacon At quake con

Time to start paying attention to the eternal flame within

Spontaneous generation is an outdated theory from the 1800's. No credible scientist supports that anymore.

And frankly, yes, if you rain on a sea of organic chemicals for a billion years you are probably going to come up with something, somewhere, by chance, approximating a primitive strand of DNA.

As I suggested elsewhere, we shouldn't assume that our DNA is all that special anyway. I have a cookie-cutter in my kitchen that my daughter uses to produce little copies of itself in a rolled-out lump of cake dough, and she doesn't need a supernatural deity to do it.

Maybe DNA is just a chemical cookie-cutter on a molecular scale, and not really all that impressive after all.

A singularity so minuscule small that created itself which then expanded itself with no cause, created time space and matter.

Hey, that's a perfect definition of your god too!

When the aliens I mean EXTRA TERRESTRIALS come (sorry, Demi Lovato), and they say "Take me to your leader." We'll have to say, "whoa whoa whoa, slow your roll muthafucka... you forgot to declare your pronouns first."

“I think that we have to stop calling them aliens because aliens is a derogatory term for anything,” said Lovato.

OH MY GAWD! DID DIS BITCH JUST ASSUME PRONOUNS!?!?!

Ok somebody answer me this:

They say that a rocket needs to reach a great speed to break Earth's gravity to get into outer space, the so called "escape velocity".

So, why can't we take a regular jumbo jet, strip it out, fill it with fuel, and fly it slowly upward until we reach outer space?

If the lack of air to work the engines is a problem, simply swap them with low-power rocket engines to provide the same thrust but without the need of air.

I mean, is there some magic line up there where the jumbo would suddenly say "I can't go any higher"?

I understand that we have the Karman line which we deem to be the boundary between our atmosphere and outer space, but this is a human-defined boundary. The Karman line is really just a convienient point where nations who have passed it can say that they are now spacefaring. Various nations disagree on how high it is anyway.

Peace.

Newton's second law of motion is especiaily useful when designing efficient rockets. For a rocket to climb into low Earth orbit, it must achieve a speed in excess of 28,000 km per hour. A speed of over 40,250 km per hour, called escape velocity, enables a rocket to leave Earth and travel out into deep space. Attaining space flight speeds requires the rocket engine to achieve the greatest thrust possible in the shortest time. In other words, the engine must burn a large mass of fuel and push the resulting gas out of the engine as rapidly as possible.

Newton's second law of motion can be restated in the following way: the greater the mass of rocket fuel burned, and the faster the gas produced can escape the engine, the greater the upward thrust of the rocket.

The Jumbo jet might lose its now useless wings on the way out.

I know what you mean by low powered rockets but it is like Homelander when he abandons that plane full of people after telling that Lesbian chic "Lift the plane? How? There's nothing to stand on!" From "The Boys" Amazon Prime series. Check it out

the engine must burn a large mass of fuel and push the resulting gas out of the engine as rapidly as possible.

But why?

Why can't a regular jumbo just climb up at it's own leisurely pace until it gets into outer space? Why does it need that insane speed and thrust?

(The jumbo would of course need to have air-independent engines and be carrying enough fuel for the expedition. Both of which ought to be convertible into a regular jumbo jet without too much fuss).

With current tech, not really do-able. Engines that negate or use gravity would work, but then airplanes likely would not have wings anyhow. Even Jeff Bozos still uses fine WW2 German engineering to blast his giant dildo into space. Advancements in engines and current thinking will make your airplanes slow ascent into space a reality, someday.

rikwad is providing you good information, the technology is not there yet.
See the link below provides the closest thing to what you are talking about.
This technology still uses a rocket engine and they are barely in orbit and only for a short time.

They should do an experiment to satisfy Tubby's curiosity and fly a Boeing 737 through the atmosphere.

Why can't you just fly a helicopter into outer space? If you run out of fuel on the way up, just make the propeller and gas tanks bigger. Do I have to think of EVERYTHING, Jesus turd burglarin' Christmas you people.

Don't worry Foc, they laughed at Leonardo da Vinci too

First, I need you to know that everyone here loves you and wants you to do well in your life.

But the entire basis of helicopter levitation depends upon a supporting cushion of "solid" air. Basically, your idea of perpetual-vertical levitation makes about as much sense as astral travel. Okay if you believe in that, but I really don't think it's going to get you into outer space right now.

"solid" air.

Matter is made up solids, liquids, and gases. Not solid gases and gassy liquids. Unless you eat bad tacos, then you'll have a combination of all 3 coming out of your asshole. I know because I'm like Fauci and I trust the science. The science also says that NO2 readings tend to be higher in places with more poor people of color... which is why you should feel bad for them... or possibly blame them for the higher levels of pollution, I'm not sure yet, I haven't been specifically told by the media NOT to believe that yet. I'm simply a "thinker", and when people in the media keep insisting on highlighting that "people of color" live in places with more pollution, then naturally you kinda start adding 2 and 2 together and assuming that they're trying to tell you that OBVIOUSLY black people are to blame for global warming.
