Sentinels of the Heliosphere

New material! WOOOHOOO!

I'll check it out...how goes it SS?

Taking a break. Just thought I would throw this out there.

It is a VERY good video on understanding the orbits of the satellites that assess conditions in the heliosphere.

Almost!

Well I got a question for ya....

The Shuttle travels close to 18,000 mph around the Earth, the Moon is approx 240,000 miles from Earth.

That should be a ride of a little over 13 hrs.

You would think that it should be no problem for us to do this all the time (travel to the Moon) since we did this in the late 60's on a rocket.

I didn't see a question...

I agree with you, that it is very easy for us to get back to the moon...and I do think there are reasons we do not go back that are kept from the public. What those reasons are, we can only speculate.

Brilliant find Sickscent! I always wondered how they got the data for such a large magnetosphere simulations such as these:

I agree. The world technologically progressed at an unbelievable pace in the last 100 years, but what happened to advances in space and technology in the last 50 years?

Edit** How come we are not going to the moon?

Hey Gabriel. I figured that is what the question was.

You saw my response, didn't you?

Wouldn't it be awesome if 'they' decided to release the floodgates on all this secrecy... maybe someday.

Yeah, its an awesome sim. I absolutely LOVE the Lagrange Point and how they've got 3 satellites balancing each other at the point.

under wraps. methinks.

More new age bullshit.

:scarydog:

LOL...someone didn't read the post. It's science bro

Nice post SS. This is a great video to get a good perspective on a few things.

Thanks, I agree.

with the haters, give'm some nice picture Sick

Hehe too late

5 stars. thx

Too complex for Brazil AC to understand. Maybe next time you could start with how to play marbles.
