And did it cause an atmospheric pressure 2.5 times current pressure, allowing tiny chested dinosaurs sufficient O2 uptake, and did the guy who made it one day break it, causing an H2O flood from condensation followed by a deep freeze?

Well?

[fzjchase]

Too much thinking for a Sunday.

[Zimm]

my lawn needs cut.

[Creeker]

This thread is worthless without pics.

[my64fj40]

both

[sonnydaze]

yes

[LoveTractor]

no















...can I hear a "maybe?"

[dfmorse]

Maybe, yes!

And it was real cold, too!

...

[LukeO]

Are you talking about Jupiter?

[WristPin]

Will you use the word in a sentenece?

[Zimm]

the lawn is mowed.

i read this







and well

[WristPin]

this is where the atmosphere lives.

[decavo]

yes lots of hot air lives here

[TheJackRabbit]

I'm glad you asked that question. I will refer it to our candidate, Senator Clinton, who will address it at the next Democratic candidate of president forum.

I can't wait to her John "Big Brain" Edward's response!!

[OZCAL]

Lighten up - you guys are taking this too seriously...

[fzjchase]

Lets see here...

Today I went for a 45 mile bike ride, which drained me.

Then I went to the beach, but the haze from the GA fire came and ruined it.

Girl's house....

Now I'm back here grabbin some grub and about to go to the library for some studying time for finals.

[Brian in Oregon]

Actually the earth is the burned out core of a star.

[Gold Boy]

i don't remember...

[WristPin]

I cant wait to get back to base camp, and get me some fuckin poon tang, Mr. Hat.

[IronYuppy]

You guys are living in a fool's paradise.

That's an open mind you have their.

[Zimm]

the lawn is growing again.

So if Earth is the core of a burnt-out star does that mean that our sun won?

Our sun is second generation. It was likely made from gasses long after the first sun burned out. The sun is primarily hydrogen and helium. But there are enough other elements that some scientists believe it is made up from gasses after another sun preceeded it.

As for the earth, the huge amount of iron and nickel can be explained this way. When hydrogen fuses into helium, energy is given off. When the hydrogen is depleted, helium is fused into a higher element, which is carbon. More energy is given off, but not nearly as much as when hydrogen fuses into helium. By the time iron is formed, more energy has to be put into the process than is released. This energy is sustained by a collapsing gravitational field. Higher elements can be formed after iron, but are mostly trace elements.

Jupiter is another interesting planet. It actually gives off more energy than it should, based on reflectivity of sunlight, suggesting there is a low level nuclear reaction taking place. Our solar system is actually a proto-binary, because Jupiter is a star that failed to acquire enough mass to initiate fusion on a mass scale.

Funny you mention Jupiter. I was wondering if they have a layer of frozen metallic hydrogen in their atmosphere too. Or any of the gas giants, I suppose.

Almost right, Brian, but not quite. Elements farther up (or down - depending on how it's presented) the periodic chart than iron cannot be formed by normal fusion processes. To create them.....we need the energies present in supernovas.

Yes, that's right, boyz 'n grilz. Gold? That most magical of all our elements? When you grasp gold, you grasp - literally - stardust.


There's poetry out there, all for the taking.

Here endeth the lesson for the weekend. Have fun mowing the lawn.

I like your style, kid.
