Some of the CMB is polarised. The suns light is polarised by Earths atmosphere. It does happen.

We don’t, it’s based on odds.

Yeah never do that lol. The crowd is rarely totally correct, and often catastrophically incorrect.

I know it’s said that they can’t be released, but like, is that really worse than this fate? I’m not so sure.

Reply to comment by IsraelZulu in A spaceflight disaster was narrowly avoided in 1972. A series of intense solar flares exploded in August, just months before the launch of Apollo 17. Any astronauts on the moon at that time would have died from radiation. As NASA's new lunar missions progress, the threat of radiation still looms. by EricFromOuterSpace
Same issue needs to be resolved on Earth.

If you break up the image into smaller pieces, it becomes a bit more obvious. Still says nothing of the skill required to visualise what it will look like when it's all together though.

Reply to comment by forever-lost435 in tifu by ruining the relationship with my best friend with sex by forever-lost435
Like you said, you have never done stuff like this before. You are understandably just a bit emotionally overwhelmed.

Was he being pushy about it or no? You say you felt weird about it but did you express that in anyway at the time? This is important because it tells us if he is being a bit manipulative. If nothing like that was going on, it’s probably just a bit awkward between you atm. Also there is no reason you can’t date this guy. This whole ‘don’t date a friend’ mindset is nonsense. A lot of life long relationships start as good friends.

Reply to Can someone explain what spacetime is? by Dusthip
Let’s say I have a frictionless ball, I drop the ball and it bounces back to my hand exactly into its original position (because it is frictionless). However me and the ball are on Earth, which is rotating and which orbits the Sun, so me and the ball have actually moved significantly from where we were when I dropped the ball. You can go even further than this and think about how the Solar system moves through the Milky Way, which itself is also moving etc. So did the ball bounce back to its original position? You might say no, but that’s only because you have other objects as a reference point, if you could not see them you would have no idea.
The point is there is no absolute space. You can’t describe a point in space without also describing a point in time (or another object, but then it has the same issue of needing its own time coordinate or another relative object, then the issue repeats). The same goes for describing a point in time without describing a point in space, although this is harder to grasp.
We actually already think like this in our day to day lives, in fact humans are very unique for thinking this way. For example, do you show up at work simply at a specific place? Or do you show up for work at a specific place, and at a specific time?

Basically. There is no up down left or right in space, the massive object is warping in 3 dimensions, not just a 2D sheet.

If the dog didn’t exist, it was still down to several other layers of chance.

Doesn't work like that. The team that made this is not the same team that can fix those issues, and it is possible that those issues can't be fixed, or it is not feasible, and thus having a different molecule would be better.

If you have a better way of finding molecules, you can more easily find one that best suits it's purpose.

It's called a casque. It could be 'bent' in either sex, but since females are larger than males and have a larger casque, any deformity could seem more pronounced.

This is almost definitely a male. Female cassowary do not incubate their eggs, nor raise the chicks. This responsibility falls on the males.

Seaweed is comparable to dark leafy greens. It's an exceptionally nutritious food and it can and has become mainstream, in Asia that is. The texture of certain seaweeds might be strange and even unpalatable to some people, but there are many varieties, and it can be dried. It's also delicious.
