  2. Wouldn't do anything. The missile is neither enabled nor targeted.

  3. Do the newer GoPros not have a recording indicator?

  4.  @closinginonclosure  Likely referring to the space industry, which currently involves throwing things into orbit using chemical-burning missiles.

  7. Access to guns is never going to stop. If they outlawed guns entirely, not only would criminals still be able to get them, it would likely start an armed revolution.

  8. Earth is not flat. It just looks that way because it is extremely large. The lens on the camera does in fact make it look more curved than it is, but does not provide evidence towards Earth being flat. A flat planet would crush itself back into a ball, unless it was the size of a large asteroid.

  9. The resolution should be ∞x525 for an NTSC signal, but the signal may be less sharp and more susceptible to interference than a digital signal. The resolution is such because there are no distinct pixels on the X axis, but there are 525 scanlines.

  10. When I saw the title, I was expecting that you would be talking about how the original seeker used a rotating sensor (which is how it got its name), but rollerons are cool too.

  11. And this was easier than simply making the rods in two pieces from the factory?

  12. The map has labels. I guess they don't want us to see that capacitor the size of 2 50 gallon barrels that can run the ship at full power for 3 weeks, or the forcefield generator that requires that much power to run for an hour.

  13. If you are too far away to reasonably go to a launch in Florida, there is a site in eastern Virginia that launches Antares and Neutron. For those in the west, there is Vandenburg which also launches Falcon.

  14. This device lacks full body force feedback, and is loud. For a similar experience, there is a project that already exists and uses a slippery surface with pressure sensors.

  15. Why would aliens be flying uncloaked ships in the atmosphere? If there are any, they would have a cloaked research station in high orbit.
