Science, Exploration, History, & Technology (G)

I would say no doubt about it. Colonies on the moon and Mars are coming.

hey everyone how are you all

So Priscillams was asking about possibly missing the Winter Solstice in the chat box

So I searched it and reckoned the best place to inform is here

It depends where you are :

So if your in the Northern Hemisphere - It occurs in December , January, February and March

If your in the Southern Hemisphere - It occurs in June , July , August and September


In the Northern Hemisphere its today and in London, England and United Kingdom its at - Wednesday 21st December at 21:48 GMT also 21:48 UTC

Northern Hemisphere also consists of North America , Europe , most of Asia and Northern Africa

In the Southern Hemisphere its in London, England and United Kingdom on Wednesday 21st of June so next year at 15:57 BST or 14:57 UTC

I don't know if its possible to see it in England since its the Southern Hemisphere but maybe if you wanted to watch online not sure why this website says England time with the Southern Hemisphere maybe I am silly and missing something as clear as the Moon ha

Southern Hemisphere also consists of Australia, New Zealand , South America and Southern Africa

I hope this helped you Priscillams and anyone else interested

Here is the link to the website where you can see it more clearly on the map

Enjoy

Take care everyone stay positive hugs

hey everyone how are you all

I saw Heatherly wanting to re focus the space and science section so as a guest I think the science, exploration and history area is best place for me to help spread space talk not moon walk ha

I saw the talk about moving to Mars and how long that could take, given a lot of troubles here on Earth and finances it may be delayed and interest in the project may drop but there are big companies with ground breaking plans so maybe 20-40 years from now.

I think the technology is nearly there, interest has been there for a while first person on Mars and so fourth, there is already a new Rover there to check for sign of life, the first steps to colonising and safe guarding the human race by branching out

Secondly if we could build space elevators it would change everything, its like when the car was made and horse and carage just went like over night you know

Space Elevators if built would drop the cost of transporting materials into space down massively, the pay load compared to fuel consumption on the rockets we have now is soo poor that's the main reason why all this space travel ect is soo expensive it takes a ton of money and fuel just to send like a car's worth of material into space so a space elevator would fix that over night and a sky hook would be revolutionary in terms of moving to planets ect, effectively its like a sling shot you go round and round and then when the item or in this case spacecraft is let go and the velocity propels it.

If we had strong enough materials to make booth of those (which we are getting close to) space travel would be like air line now compared to when it began and only the rich could fly around the world, space travel in addition to colonising projects would be way cheaper, available to many more and fast

So those are two future developments to space travel and what impact they could have

Take care everyone stay positive and look to the stars

hey Kjay, how are you

Awe sweet he was super cool and friendly happy to bring him to your memory and thank you

Take care stay positive hugs

Those were the things I mean. In supermarkets they put money in the capsule and it is sucked along.

I know nothing about space elevators but I do have an interest in NASA and Mars.

Not That!!!

I think people are just people, and dividing them into little groups does nobody any good.

If you have to go back to roman times to find evidence against of my pov, you have not got much, have you?

I think maybe but I don't want to

yes

if you get to Mars before me, could I ask you for some mars rocks or dust? hehehehe

You are a lot older than I initially thought.
