Can't kill lawyers. Half of any government is made up of lawyers, who control the military, and look after their own. Why do you think so many legal loopholes exist which give lawyers a chance to make lots of $$$$?

That's just it thought-a consciousness WE gave them. Humans are far from perfect angels and we will never reach that stage, so why are you so assuming that we would ever be able to create perfect angels when human error is taken into account with every single invention on Earth? We can create things extremely accurately, but there will always be a margin of error, and a life form we would "create" with our intelligence...

I know what the 10% was supposed to represent. My point was that if only those with psychopathic tendencies could be persuaded to kill the enemy, those troops required to kill the enemy would, all other things being equal, be chosen from amongst that supposed 10% of the general population. But I don't believe the 10% figure; and I do not believe that a soldier who has killed an enemy combatant is likely to be of a psychopathic tendency....

Quote: skeptical ~Could such a vessel find sustenance at Alpha Centauri. If it was pre-prepared, yes. We cannot expect an Earth like planet. However, as long as Alpha Centauri has moons, asteroids, planetary rings, comets etc., there will be water and minerals. Water will be the most important item, but that is abundant in our own solar system, and there is no reason to believe it will be less so at Alpha Centauri. No matter how advanced the...

Nah, this is Murphy's Law: If anything can be allowed to go wrong, it will. ( I'm reminded of NASA's chagrin when a colony of ants took up residence benath the Lunar Receiving Laboratory clean-rooms. Not the vacuum sections, but the ambient, glove-boxed zone. Scientists were not amused to see tiny ants pop out of one wall-seam, march across their work-area and vanish down another implausibly small crack... ;-))

I'm not convinced about these arguments; for a start I think there is a huge difference between running through someone with a bayonet and seeing their blood and guts spill out, to manning a machine gun above the first world war trenches, to pressing a button that launches a nuclear attack. Somehow the first of those seems the hardest to do, and yet the latter causes the greatest death toll. I would say that the more automated war...

I can believe the 85% figure when shooting at enemy soldiers crossing an open field several hundred yards away,...

Last I had heard of the Rosetta Probe was when it was misidentified by an astronomer as an asteroid on a collision path with Earth. After a while I think someone on the Rosetta team put two and two together and figured it out, it was no asteroid!
We wouldn't want Bruce Willis shooting down a perfectly good space probe.
Good to see it still in working order and able to perform one last ...

I see where you're going with this, Drachir, and while I'm not paranoid about it on a Terminator or Matrix level, nonetheless one does have to wonder just how far technology is going to go, and what it will be capable of by the time the human race gets into a near- apocalyptic situation.....

What should NASA do? Currently NASA is in debate mode, considering its future efforts. It is hampered by the imminent retirement of the space shuttles, and by limiting budgets. They are considering a return to the moon, a trip to Mars, probes out into the solar system. What should they do?
Here is my idea. I think space development should not take the form of one off ...

Large Hadron Collider Sabotaged from the Future The headline says it all. I'm not sure whether this belongs in Science and Nature or Humour.

I'll say the same thing as I did in the space hotel thread.
Another silly way for silly rich people to spend their hard-stolen money. A moon colony, really. *Shakes head* I'd never be caught dead in a place like that; it would have absolutely no atmosphere.

The humpback experience can be achieved in Tonga. The time is August to October. There are several commercial operations taking people out in boats, from where they can slip into the water and snorkel with humpbacks. eg. http://www.divevavau.com/ http://www.naia.com.fj/tonga/index.html http://www.whaleswim.com/
