This isn’t properly calculated though. They only count the actual laser energy inside the reacttvs output. They don’t account for the huge amount of energy thatch’s needed to run the lasers in the first place or the rest of the facility. It’s nowhere near putting out more energy than it consumes and it’s also a reactor for nuclear weapons testing so they don’t really try to produce energy anyway.
Easy, just drive them in Mexico or Canada and they’d be fine.
I fear that it will be the former.
Well well well, just wait until you get a sunburn resulting in skin cancer and say that again. Check mate astronomists.
It is certainly a challenge to keep a large animal with such a thick shell afloat. However that would just explain the immense size of the shells. Their shape is just extremely weird and sometimes I’d even expect it to be detrimental to their ability to navigate the open water. If they were planktonic it would not be as problematic I guess but I still don’t see the functional advantage. Maybe mimicry? But of what?
They look a lot like the calcareous shells of some polychaetes but they have a sedentary lifestyle attached to rock or other substrates which is not what we’d expect for Ammonites.
Maybe it’s a puzzle that will remain unsolved.
Isn’t this system a rather normal payload? We had really large rockets with the Apollo program.
Well, if the rocks are sufficiently small and plenty as well as stealth coated (or at least painted black) they are still a nuisance with deadly potential.
Don’t hurt me like that :(
Drip feeders can in fact be excellent. Unless you’re already the kind of person who will forget about those as well.
Might be plausible. I’ll have to look it up at one point, maybe there’s some research on this. I think it may be hard to guess why because we don’t have many swimming animals with shells. I don’t know if snails may offer some answers but they are maybe to different in lifestyle.
For 90% of people it’s watering issues. Mostly overwatering.
Has anyone got some conclusive theories on the functional morphology of this?
True, although some thankless tasks are more thankful than others.
That’s a really old accusation made since the 60s I think.
Currently started (at least somewhat) working on a submarine simulation/strategy game. I want it to be as lightweight as possible so it runs on as many systems as possible. Probably a lot of 2D graphics wherever graphics are necessary but a lot of focus will be on sensors and calculations. I want it to be Dieselpunkish with a technology tree between 1910s and 1960s but without featuring real world countries or submarines and no nuclear technology. The simulation of individual ships should be in depth in a dwarf fortress kind of way and I want realistic sound propagation. I’ll try to incorporate submarine design as well.

There’s a game called Automation that covers some of these aspects.
Because nobody wants to sell this?
