Science in Science Fiction: orbits and artificial habitats
The Expert: Adeena Mignogna
“Standard orbit” is a phrase used frequently in a popular sci-fi franchise. Problem is, there is no such thing as “standard orbit.” But that’s okay. This is not a sin… maybe someone will define a “standard orbit” for spaceships one day.
The Expert: Philip Kramer
Closed Ecological System (CES) is a broad term that encompass any self-sustaining and closed system in which matter does not leave or enter. These artificial habitats can be built in space, underground, or underwater, but no matter where they are, chances are they are closed for a reason. Whether it is an underground bunker in a post-apocalyptic setting, a distant planet in the early stages of colonization, or a spacecraft carrying the last remnants of humanity, the environment outside is not hospitable. To ensure long-term survival, the occupants must maintain a well-balanced air and water system, a continuous food supply, and a reliable source of energy.

Apparently it makes me a “super villain” and an “evil scientist” to want to use a big big magnet to try to pull the planets in our solar system out of orbit. Personally I think it’s just good old fashioned scientific curiosity but whatever

It was doing that before we existed and it will continue to do that after we no longer exist.

transformers fanon anatomy terms? yeah, sure. I don't use all of them, but most of them don't bother me
transformers fanon timekeeping terms? I am filled with unending rage
#the thing is. the THING is#the anatomy ones are easier to get from context.#“he cradled his x in his x” or whatever only has so many meanings to guess from#BUT LENGTH OF TIME CAN BE SO AMBIGUOUS#especially for a franchise with characters that are so long lived#where's our frame of reference for a minute or a decade or a breem or a joor? NOWHERE#“stellar cycle”? the planet cybertron doesn't even ORBIT A STAR in all continuities#not to mention that could refer to planetary rotation (equivalent of a day)#OR the planet's orbit around the star (equivalent of a year)#AMBIGUITY!! AND THAT'S JUST ONE EXAMPLE (they all suck)#anyway lol rant over#obv it's fine and doesn't matter if people use these#it just gets on the nerves of me -> person who needs systems to have internal logical consistency

The small flash was an explosion caused by the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 that collided with Jupiter. The explosion had the force of 5 billion atomic bombs and twice the size of Earth

@vulpixisananimal this is what happened in the intermission, right?
#MAN I WENT TO POST THIS AND I FOUDN YOU HAD A NEW POST AND AUGH. BONNIE...........#anyway. yea i know its canon outfit is different. but i reject canon the universe is fat and wears dresses now. youre welcome#i was gonna put like. the rings of planetary orbits in the hat. and then everything took sso long to do........#LOVE the boots tho. me when i give the islanders one (1) boot style#and!! i stylized the moons in such a way that theyve got a little circle representing change in them#which is why the face is different on the boots! isnt that neat#and of course instead of 'come on' like the og ibuprofen meme its 'follow me'! the universe leads...#my art

SCIENCE STRIKES AGAIN!
Flora have once again undergone drastic changes in little time
by Iteration: Ke'nuun 22 July, UFIPA Iteration 3
The native flora of numerous planets, including Synthetic capital Habri Delta and Gek capital Ifortc Tau, have once again changed their physical appearance completely in an incredibly short time period.
Scientists claim that though plantlife on all affected worlds appears completely different, the genetic makeup is similar - it was not another flash extinction, however this time there is no clear evidence indicating the true reason for these changes.
Some speculate another atmospheric change, though there is currently no evidence to support this theory. More eccentric citizens preach 'the end of the universe as we know it', but authorities have waved off these conspiracies with ease.

Watch "Uh Oh, Methane Evidence Suggests We Entered Ice Age Termination Event" on YouTube
youtube
Note:
The WEF claims that climate change, by definition, is caused by humans. In other words, climate change cannot occur without humans.
So every change of climate that occurred billions of years ago was caused by us, and climates on distant worlds as well.
We are GODS!!
Of course, scientists published papers about climate changes during to many factors that have nothing to do with humanity some fifty years ago, and it looks like Leftists want to introduce totalitarianism through the back door.
A) Create panic by claiming a natural phenomenon is caused by dissent, and only conformity and blind obedience will fix it.
B) Ride the panicked sheep to power. As Covid showed, most people will blindly believe what authorities tell them, and media and tech giants and even banks have been eager to merge with government in the enforcement of the deceit.
We also see a willingness in the US to arrest anyone outside the controlled opposition.
If you burn down a house in the name of Leftism, you are a "mostly peaceful protester".
If you are a dissenter invited into a government building by cops, walking in unarmed - walking within the flags like a tourist - then you are a dangerous insurgent - an enemy of the State who deserves to die.
The worst people on Earth know full well that climate always changes, and would do so if everyone died, until the end of the world.
They don't care.
The lie that climate was static, and human sin causes change, that is a cynically created dogma that is sweeping the globe.
They will use the combination of religion and politics to take away every freedom. The worst people in the world would break our spirit and make of us miserable drones, terrified and hateful by turn.

Why have I had to explain the northern lights 4 times today? Specifically to Alaskan about why we can't see this solar storm? Did we not all learn about this in 4th grade?
#from the far north#I get that its a wierd niche thing to teach a 10yo#But its local and pertinent#Also not that complicated#Like#On par with explaining planetary orbits#Except it makes more sense and it puts the shape of the world in context#Sensible enough to forget immediately

it's n7 day!!!
the cut content restoration mod i paused my current playthrough of MELE to wait for is out, so i'm climbing back on my bullshit lmao.
#personal#audrey plays mass effect le#yeah i started another playthrough like... last monthish but hadn't really had anything to post yet this time#most of my LE1 screenshots this round are more orbital planetary screenshots LMAO. i will probably post about this though!!!#i was getting really close to noveria and heard this might be out on N7 day so i waited. rubs hands together#on that note tho N7 day wrt to the state of bioware is so fucking funny. i was unbearably excited for today for modding community stuff#and it's like bioware released some teasers? that's nice. waves hand.#is it bad that i don't believe ME5 is actually going to happen? lmao. or if it does i don't have any confidence in its quality.#da: dreadwolf will be the omen for that i think so we'll see huh.
