Seriously I'm betting on confirming the location of a black hole, areas with no stars can be spotted from the ground and although nothing can escape perhaps they've found some method of diffracting xrays and such.. i know little *waits to be smacked down by Agrippa* The UK goverment also looks like its releasing files on UFOs now, for the conspircay theorists they're probably the less interesting ones |

Naaa I'm guessing it's a planet/moon with liquid H2O Yeh the MoD have released ufo files and the vatican have released a statement about the possibility of aliens created by God being a possibility... 1) SETI started up 50 years ago 2) When's the CERN LHC thing kicking off - wasn't that delayed? 3)50 years goes almost exactly back to the Sputnik era, other non-manned space-flight, and the foundation of NASA itself (29 July 1958); it predates the whole of the Apollo program. 4) laika was sent up almost exactly 50 years ago... lots of possibilities ... but be prepared for .. oh it's a star we were looking at 50 years ago, it's over there *points* and it's still there.

However, as objects fall into a black hole they lose their gravitational energy which may result in them emitting radiation. Which is what can be detected. |

Quote Say wrote: Naaa I'm guessing it's a planet/moon with liquid H2O ...clip The method for detecting possible habitable planets is more difficult - they never say that it definitely has water. The best technique comes with major disadvantages - primarily, you need the planet between you and the start it's orbiting. The method works by analysing the light spectrum as it passes through the target planet's atmosphere. From the analysis you can then infer the probably make up of gases - scientists then extrapolate that to make some assumptions about the planet make up as a whole. There are a couple of other methods such as polarisation of the starlight, and analysis of scintillation (atmospheric twinkling). |

So... we've got to wait for the press to release a story on it to find out now I'm not too disappointed as zero punctuation should be out any minute. (Completely unrelated) Edited by Ramini on 14-05-2008 17:03 |
