Well of Souls Forums

yes yes I love the new site, loads fast and seems and I like the new look. any possibilities of outside theme ? I'll try to make an Outsider-themed skin at some point, but it's not high on my priority list right now. I'm just glad to have the forums back. Is there a built in night mode in this vers...

Surveys take the biases they are likely to induce into account. The theory correlates to the data we've got to a ridiculously high statistical significance. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1608.08772.pdf Other surveys have no problems finding objects far enough. The theory is consistent with homogenous distri...

Thanks for the update. Of these bodies 2015 KH163 at 156 AU Semi-major axis and 2013 GP136 at 154 AU SMA and 2013 UT15 at 195 AU SMA have semi-major axis too small to be correlated with the alined and anti-aligned population. The strong correlation with that resonance shows up at higher semi-major a...

Bit funny though. If I understand this "planet X" theory well, they should look for it in roughly the opposite direction of where all those dwarf planets align their orbit to, and still they're going for other KBO's in parts of the sky previous ones were found. All of the objects found are at aroun...

The Outer Solar System Origins Survey found 9 Sedna type objects, and their orbital distribution was consistent with randomness. From what I've gleaned the objects in the survey are with low perihelia. Low perihelion means scattering by Neptune and the other giant's orbital resonances. The non-rand...

If I understand this "planet X" theory well, they should look for it in roughly the opposite direction of where all those dwarf planets align their orbit to, and still they're going for other KBO's in parts of the sky previous ones were found. The fact that they still haven't foun...

Hi Jim! Your project has outlived relicnews forums! The horror. The joy! Also in respones to previously raised criticisms about the "abominable Lightning2" project to paraphrase, "that should have been cancelled long ago" is incorrect. It's an excellent and vital weapon system for the allies going f...

The wonders of computer controlled thrust vectoring stabilized rocketry (not fin-stabilized darts) coming to the hobby model market, inspired by the success of a particular company obviously. -jB1Cqm2_nQ The leader of that project tells about it's origin, the process of developing from a personal le...

Yet Pluto does very much look like a minor solar system body, even if it's the biggest member of it's orbital neighborhood. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Atransneptunianobjectplotofsemimajoraxisvsinclinationupdatedtodecembre2014.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:TheKuiperBelt_Projections_5...

Using it as a heat source to avoid spending electrical power on heat would be the more effective approach... [...] Might need to remove some insulation to keep from overheating, though, considering the vehicle probably didn't have the power budget to spend kilowatts on heat to begin with. He could ...

Maybe more people could be convinced to stick around if someone actually acknowledged their existence when they did come to the channel. Much of the time the number of eyeballs looking at the computer connected to IRC is zero, or made out of otherwise busy individuals, quiet times will happen even ...

Generally speaking, the only raw food that we can eat are fruit, certain vegetables (tomatoes) and red meat. The two greatest staples of human diet, grain and rice, need to be cooked first before they can be eaten (grain can be boiled in order to be consumed as food). Various kinds of seafood is ea...

All the novels by Peter Watts are highly recommended. All novels except Echopraxia from the Firefall setting are available for personal reading on his website. He writes hard sci fi. They are rather dense on technical jargon and hypothetical interpolations on real science, at times. The author is a...

Thanks for the fun quote.

If etiquette premits me to say so, I'd suggest /r/eyebleach might help.

Never seen a Loroi thick from moving iron

Edit: what? Thread's already declared unclean.

Now I miss playing Navy Field.

Or get yourself a DVD box set. Yes, it's that good

Just cause running from pitchforks aswell as inciting software wars is fun. Apologies for my absence and lack of contribution to the body count.

Darn, should get my act together and track down SchwartzDrache and poll the oldtimers about those archival fragments...
