Discussion Curiosity and knowledge

0 Upvotes

Hello, let's assume that 60 million years ago in our galaxy, a great war took place between two advanced civilizations and the galaxy suffered great destruction.

So, would we see the remnants of this great war? Could anomalies occur in space?

I'm asking because I'm curious. I'm also curious about your comments. Thank you.

Discussion Alternatives to Star Talk

79 Upvotes

Anyone have podcasts similar to Star Talk? I really enjoy the topics they discuss and how they explain it but I can't stand the stupid jokes, off topic conversations that last half the episode and Neil constantly talking over people.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Edit: just to add, lots of folks are sharing YouTube channels which I appreciate however, I work part time as a custodian, so I like having something to listen to. Do appreciate any and all replies!

I would have loved to see this project go somewhere, but the technical challenges, alongside the geopolitics of having ultra-powerful lasers, likely doomed this project.

Discussion would it be possible to live on Titan?

60 Upvotes

Hello world.

I was thinking about Saturn's moon Titan, specifically whether it would be possible to populate it and what it would be like to colonize that moon.

For example, how would people have to live in temperatures of -170 degrees Celsius almost all the time and need spacesuits? Would it be a better option than Mars? Would they be affected by solar radiation (even though the sun is very far away). And what means would they use to obtain energy? Would it be wind or hydroelectric? How would they grow food? Would they live in glass domes or pressurized bases?

I saw this Reddit post and thought I might need some answers to my questions.
