What are these? Many of these things floating around are of
course space debris. There are other objects changing direction and speed
so suddenly, that they can't be just space debris.
Discuss!

How come every post you
type like this, putting line
breaks in places where
they don't need to be?

I don't
know. English isn't Sven's
first language, but he
seems competent
enough with it, he
shouldn't be making those sorts of annoying
mistakes.

He posts from his iPhone. I can only assume that causes the unnecessary line brakes.

No. I post from my iPod touch, which is the same exact operating system underneath, and I've never had that happen.

I'm posting from my iPhone to test hara's perposterious theory of line iPod posting. Do far I have noticed nothing out of the ordinary. Some say it's difficult to think up nonsensical things to talk about. I however, find it easy. Though, I am worried about spelling errors as I will not be correcting them. Does anyone else think that Hara's new avatar looks like one that Soze would use? Who's he trying to trap anyways? I'd already let him stick it in any hole he pleased. This is getting me hot, I wonder if Physics has hit up maxim.com yet today and posted in the "what you would fap to" thread yet. I sure hope so. Ok, I think this is a long enough test...

It's true. It's easier to do line breaks earlier then to write all the way to the right, when I'm on the iPhone. Now i'm not though, so know I can use all the available space in the editor.
Now, back on topic. Anyone have any thoughts on the video?

Now I also realized that it looks like
you wrote a poem when using line breaks earlier.
Like:
Gorgonzola
Cambazola
Happy snappers
Sandwich wrappers
Parmesan
Vacherin
Week old socks
Unwashed cocks
All these
Say cheese

I just watched the link and OMG, could you possibly find a grainer video? Also, that face on mars was debunked years ago. In fact, it was never even bunked in the first place. However, do I think there are aliens out there? Yes. Are they visiting earth? No.

I've seen those videos in better quality. I'm not thinking about the face on mars, but rather those objects speeding up and changing direction. Some say it's space debris hitting our atmosphere at one angle and bouncing off at another. I find this highly unlikely though.

Are we discussing the property of a UFO?

Actaully, I think UFO's is the name of a bar and grill.

That may be, but I guess you want to establish what, and what is not an UFO first?
-
That may be, but I guess you want to establish what, and what is not an UFO first?
A UFO, as the name suggests, is a flying object which has not been identified.

Alright. Do you have any theories on what we're seeing in that video then?

Yes.
They need oxygen to live. There are no oxygen in space. Therefore your claim is worthless.

There are no oxygen in space.
There is plenty of oxygen in space.

No, and the fact that you think liquid oxygen can exist in space shows a terrible lack of understanding of thermodynamics.

Yes? I've read that. When I said there's no oxygen in space, I meant enough oxygen to breath in, since we're talking about living things here.
We can't breath in space, the same goes with fireflies.

i wouldn't be so quick to deny the existance of living things in the near vaccum of space. the apollo 12 lunar mission recoverd parts of surveryor 3 which landed on the moon a few years prior. when analayzed in a lab on earth it was found to have had bactirial contamination during its construction. these bactiria survived the entire voyage through space in a dormant state and where successfully reanimated when they were returned to earth.

Yes, I've heard about that. But there is a slight difference between bacteria and insects.

You're the guys claiming that fireflies are in space. I don't have to prove a negative. It's your claim.
Now, go on, prove it. Oh, so you can't? Thought so.

Let me be more precise, since you're pointing out semantics.
There is not enough oxygen in space for a firefly to breath.
-
Actually, there is adequate oxygen for fireflies to meet all their breathing requirements in space. I can prove this.
-
New theory. The sun is not a spotlight, but rather a huge colony of fireflies.
-
Actually, there is adequate oxygen for fireflies to meet all their breathing requirements in space. I can prove this.
Go!
Even if there were, you also have to explain how the fireflies can get to space. :D
-
Fireflies, like all insects, don't breathe. They use diffusion to get oxygen to their cells. Ergo, all their breathing requirements (0%) are met in full in any environment. Also, I do not have to explain how fireflies get into space to prove they don't breathe. That's like you asking me to explain how fish got on Jupiter to understand how gills work. Preposterous.

That's not what I was asking you to do. I know they don't breath like we do, but they "breath" air. Not with lungs. The air goes into the tracheal tubes and passes through the system of branching trachea. The circulatory system of insects, like that of other arthropods, is open: the heart pumps the hemolymph through arteries to open spaces surrounding the organs; when the heart relaxes, the hemolymph seeps back into the heart.
Still, show how there is enough oxygen in space, and how they will survive a trip to space, and let us not forget, how they will survive in an almost 100% vacuum environment. In space, there are high-energy protons and electrons, ultraviolet radiation, atomic oxygen, high and low temperature extremes, hard vacuum, galactic cosmic radiation, micrometeors, man-made debris and a lot of other things as well.

Ok, then I must correct myself. I meant exist, as in function normally, as in live normally in space.

It's not semantics...
I asked if you had proof (because you made a claim). In response, you asked if I had any proof. Since I wasn't taking a position, I wasn't obligated to provide proof. I pointed out that I had made no claims. You now tell me it is semantics?
