      Our standard talks are 1 hour plus 30 min for questions. Some talks are given in a special series. For example our U3A day (which this is part of) has two talks of 30 min + questions in the morning and one talk that is 45 min + questions in the afternoon.

    Rational people understand that our Solar System consists of 4 real planets -- Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The only ones that could show up, when viewed from a distant star. The rest (mercury, venus, earth, mars, pluto, etc.) are just buggery little dwarf, subplanets; not worthy of "Planet" designation.
    Perhaps the IAU gave us a glimpse of their chauvinistic prejudices when relegating our dear Pluto to dwarf planet status.
    Have you heard that any member of the IAU living in the vicinity of Flagstaff, AZ has been forced to eat their own kidneys out of little bowls made from their kneecaps? Jolly good, I say!

      Yes, NASA has evidence that methane is produced on a seasonal basis and also that it's broken down more rapidly than UV radiation can account for.So, from that evidence, there seems to be a high probability there's something biological happening. But NASA does want to collect definitive evidence before making such a claim.

    Hello, my name is Andrew and here it is.
    (unifying theory + key to darm matter adn fater the light communcation)
    i want to share with you, something i wasted my time on. The “First rule” of this universe.
    Eh…. it sound strange, but stay with me for a second. It deep, it really deep.
    This rule is - when energy exchange between two relative points occur, it happens along the path of least resistance. Everywhere, every time.
    The depth here - everywhere, every time. Even in black holes, the guide for evolution, for human behavior, every energy exchange, every time.
    Understanding this depth allow me to predict tomorrow much more precisely.
    Just think about it, how you move through your life, how the brain works. the behavior of animals and insects, any science. This rule in the core of absolute all.
    No one else can show it to you now.
    I want to shout about it from the highest bell tower! It will help people to move forward!
    a key to dark matter or no time for energy exchange
    short version
    Energy exchange limit or limit for two point to interact.
    it is a bit hard to write down this thought for me.
    if two points have relative speed more then speed of light, they not able to interact.
    but they can interact through the third point. (exactly like dark matter)
    1)You know how space can expand faster then light? And it also can curve?
    soo, it most likely can curve true it selfe. and this how it not interacting with it selfe.
    (in black holes space curveture length is extremely small)
    2) How many time need for Sun to exchange energy with you? soo every energy exchange take some "time".
    There for if two point have speed difference more then C, they will have no "time" to exchange energyx, have no "time" for exchange to occure.
    Even if they will share same place.
    also you may see it as, FLT parts in more then one place at a "time" compare to us. For FLT part we in less then one place at "time". (why mass go up)
    it more about interaction limin then about speed of light.
    can be tested, if we will represent a third point.
    long version
    -dark matter in our galaxy, (most likely particles emitted by central black hole)
    is particles that moving faster than light. (most likely you do not "belive" in this)
    if i assume it is correct, then big amount of hydrogen on edge of galaxy, is where this "dark matter particles" decay after losing speed. (decay like new particles from hadron collider)
    -parts of dark matter alredy found, but we do not about it. (perseption(particles from hadron collider))
    -particles found with hadron collider behave like a dark matter after loosing speed.
    -most likely there is a energy exchange speed limit in betwen two points (not sound speed),
    most likely it is a speed of light. (that about why we do not see dark matter, but see it interction with other(slower for it/faster for us) particles)
    -particles from hadron collider will be stable if placed in faster then light speed.
    whant to tell more, I hope this is enough to contact me.
    the key is a energy exchange speed limit
    (i want my Nobel for showing you dark matter)
    Best regards Dynin A.I.

    Nice vest! Nice insider comments too. Though when looking at Mars I think it would have been better to say the striations were due to liquids and when examined we determined the residue was from liquid water and not liquid methane. Ceres is obviously going to become "Fort Ceres" as the last "civilized" stop on the way to the wild untamed outer solar system.
    PS. As a "master of our solar system" you need to lose the pudge around your waist! Then we could put you into the comics and such!

This does mean we need to get inventive with our fundraising. Ads on UA-cam are currently financing almost all of our talk filming so we're very fortunate with that, although we do also get supplemented by Patreon, individual philanthropy, foundation grants etc across the institution, allowing us to bring as much science to as many people as possible.

    I am still confused how something can be a dwarf _planet_ without being a planet. It sounds like it is a category of planets... like we have gas giants and terrestrial planets, we have dwarf planets as well... no need to pass a law to make an exception for Pluto.

    • @merrymachiavelli2041
      @merrymachiavelli2041 5 років тому +1

      It's a basically a question of how many planets are too many planets to have included in the normal use of the term 'planet', when what you want to say is 'the biggest objects in the solar system that aren't the sun, including Earth'. Including the dwarf planets in the tally takes you up to 13 planets, and may also raises ambiguity about the biggest moons (Luna, Titan...etc), which are significantly bigger than some of the dwarf planets (that said, Ganymede and Titan are _just_ bigger than Mercury, so it isn't a perfect dividing line). For me, its a functional thing - if dwarf planets came to be included in the general use of the world planet, I'd want _another_ word that excluded them, and its better to avoid the bother.

  • @Markle2k
    @Markle2k 5 років тому

    Eves misrepresents how New Horizons came about. It wasn't that Congress mandated a mission to Pluto against NASA's wishes. That isn't how it works. New Horizons had been selected in its second competition in 2000. Then, in 2001, a new Administrator came in with the Bush presidential administration and declined to ask for funding in FY 2003. The Science Mission Directorate at NASA was, however, in favor of it and it topped the list of priorities for its class in the Planetary Science Decadal Survey released in 2002. It was then that the top brass at NASA acquiesced to the scientists' wishes. It was a coup _within NASA_ that got New Horizons rolling toward launch.
    He did get muddled up with the whole Arizona/New Mexico thing. Flagstaff is where the observatory where Pluto was discovered is located. It is in Arizona. It was New Mexico, where Clyde Tombaugh ended up after he lost his position at the Flagstaff observatory, that passed a _resolution_ that Pluto would always be considered a planet _while in New Mexico's skies_ . A resolution is not a law.
