    I’d have to argue that bro

    I’d say it’s closer to a vending machine than a canteen

    Probably a ferrero rocher designed to look like space rock.

    Hitting a bullseye from 7,000,000 miles is worth a high five tbh, Kane hits one from 5yd and you wet the bed.

    I saw this last night. Makes a change from using these precision missiles to kill innocent folk attending a wedding out in the desert somewhere.

    No need to worry about an asteroid destroying the planet then? Did it actually do anything to the asteroid? I think we needed a picture of it after impact. The one on the missile was destroyed on impact.

    Btw that asteroid looked a bit too perfect, a bit 'computer graphicy'. Need Aber to confirm it actually happened.

    So if we find a way to travel faster than the speed of light, we can time travel!

    In a paper outlining the plan, the technique is referred to as “wheel shedding.” It’s a process where a large portion of the wheel is strategically broken off and left behind. If left unchecked to break off naturally, there’s a big concern of an electrical cable that controls the drive motor being seriously damaged, rendering that wheel inoperable. This would lead to greatly reduced overall performance since the rover would be dragging its wheel (what’s left of it, anyway).

    The process goes something like this:
    1. Find a rock. Mars rovers are pretty good at this but it can’t be just any rock. To make this happen, they’re looking for a rock with the size and shape they need and it has to be sitting at just the right angle.
    2. Drive the offending wheel up to it. This technique requires a bit of precision. The idea here is not to drive at the rock at full speed.
    3. Get Crackin’! The rover will drive in to the rock in such a way that will intentionally cause a crack in a precise spot.
    4. Wash, rinse, repeat. Curiosity will back off after the first crack and reposition itself to present a new section of the wheel to the rock. It’ll repeat this process for the rest of the wheel.
    5. The shed. The offending section of wheel will still be trying to hold on. Curiosity will have to carefully turn and drive to get what’s left of its wheel away from the discarded section. This poses the same risk as driving without performing the wheel shedding process so this step is crucial

    Can't say what happened before supposed big bang.

    No comprehension of different dimensions.

    Only God knows all. Despite humanity's phenomenal scientific progress to get this far, we're just scratching around the surface.

    The whole of our galaxy would fly apart, without the gravitational mass of a cloud of particles no one has ever seen (Dark Matter).
