Great Pyramid of Mars

steve<br />Did you read my post before you suggested him to read the flower thread or was it a coincidence? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <span style="font-size:6pt;color:#009999;font-family:Verdana"><span style="font-size:6pt;color:#009999"><font face="Times New Roman"><strong><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'"><p> </p><p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'">"We will either find a way, or make one!" - Hannibal<br /> </span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'"><br /></span></strong></p></span></strong></strong></font></span></span> </div>

For my own enlightenment, I will do exactly that. Ought to be an interesting case-study.<br /><br />One day, I may end up teaching classes at the College level. If so, I hope I won't get anyone like ES.<br /><br />But I know I will... <br /><br />Back shortly...gonna go eat some lunch and throw some glassware at the wall...muttering... <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

I thought I recognized the name from before. Yevaud. I remember project orion too. He came back several times and spammed the boards with porn. Finally some one got his personal info and went after him. He soon stopped.<br /> It is nice to see some one with a true science background on here especially in this forum. I love to come in now and then and whack these kooks on a common sense level but doing it on an educated level is so much more interesting to watch. I especially like the way you disassembled "nonsense's" claims of being educated in physics. With one post you laid bare his inadequate understanding of even the most basic theories discussed in an issue of Discover magazine. He is probably devising his new name and personal info right now so he can leave this obliterated incarnation to the ash heap and resurrect as some new intellectual expert on the obscure and imagined. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Wait, wait!<br /><br />That's the first I hear of Orion being behind the crash! Can someone please elaborate? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <span style="font-size:6pt;color:#009999;font-family:Verdana"><span style="font-size:6pt;color:#009999"><font face="Times New Roman"><strong><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'"><p> </p><p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'">"We will either find a way, or make one!" - Hannibal<br /> </span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'"><br /></span></strong></p></span></strong></strong></font></span></span> </div>

Funny coincidence....

Ok, back.<br /><br />Umm, the PO link is rumor only. I'll have to ask around...<br /><br />And you know, there are people on SDC - past and present - who I don't even remotely hold a candle to. I have learned a lot from them, which has a lot to do with why I came back. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

Oh my Great Ghu. If anything, his "blue flowers" thread was worse than this one.<br /><br />Ah, well. What do you want for a weenie culty who thinks the Raelians are going to come and get us?

Yevaud<br /><br />Hi,<br />Well, two things: 1. Indeed there are some brilliant people here. It is just difficult sometimes to differentiate those who "talk the talk" from those who "walk the walk" (where is a_lost_packet, by the way?).<br /><br />2. Regarding the raelians: I think you confused two members here. Extrasense is not a raelian, he is just (fill you favorite word here).<br />The raelian is kmarina, who is actually a pretty nice and clever young guy who unfortunately has "some issues". Specifically, the rael cult. <br /><br /><br />Regards<br />arit<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <span style="font-size:6pt;color:#009999;font-family:Verdana"><span style="font-size:6pt;color:#009999"><font face="Times New Roman"><strong><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'"><p> </p><p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'">"We will either find a way, or make one!" - Hannibal<br /> </span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#009999;font-family:'CourierNew'"><br /></span></strong></p></span></strong></strong></font></span></span> </div>

Ah. My mistake. Yes, it <font color="yellow">does</font>get difficult, trying to seperate individuals from the herd.<br /><br />Mind you, I'm pretty damned open-minded, if a natural-born skeptic. I'll listen to anyone, until they either prove their point or they don't. Hell, there's a lot of topics I know squat about, and if I don't know, I'll usually shut up and try to absorb. Or go out and try to learn about it. <br /><br />And thanks for the pointer. I won't point the finger at anyone, unless they deserve it. Maybe not even then. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

So I'm expected to believe that the rover takes a snapshot of a pyramid at distance and then goes on its merry way to look at pebbles?<br /><br />WERE it a pyramid, I'd be inclined to believe the folks at JPL might go in for a closer look.<br /><br />Maybe you can answer that for me, extrasence. Cause I sure don't understand why we'd pass on without closer examination. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <em>"2012.. Year of the Dragon!! Get on the Dragon Wagon!".</em> </div>

So you're telling me that JPL would just completely disregard the opportunity to confirm the greatest discovery ever in the history of mankind?<br /><br />I'm not buying it. It would be in their best interest to investigate. Why?

[pocket_rocket]

ES to Yevaud "Could You Take Your Gossip Column Somewhere from This Thread, Please "<br /><br />What Yevaud has said is science. Gossip would more likely involve blue flowers and pyramids and snake rocks.<br />Let me get this straight. All NASA engineers, scientists, PHD's, biologists are imbiciles and you are the one who is really smart. hmmmm... Could have fooled me.<br />

It is immutable state<br />

<font color="yellow">From that I estimate that the object is about 270 feet from the rover and about 1.25 feet high. Seems a bit on the puny side for a Great Pyramid. It does look like a pyramid, but I'm afraid it's actually a jagged rock at the top of a hill or crater rim. </font><br /><br />Maybe the Martians are very small...<br /><img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <strong><font color="#3366ff">Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yeild.</font> - <font color="#3366ff"><em>Tennyson</em></font></strong> </div>

 

[extrasense]

My estimate is that the object is 22 cm high.<br /><br />It is still a pyramid<br />

 

[telfrow]

It's a rock. <br /><br />A pointy rock, but a rock none the less.<br /><br />By the way, if the "Great Pyramid of Mars" is just 22 cm high (by your own estmates), does that mean the Martians are 2.5 mm tall? That'd be about the same ratio for the Great Pyramid (on Earth) to an average human. <br /><br />Just curious. <br /><br />God help me, I don't know why, but I am. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <strong><font color="#3366ff">Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yeild.</font> - <font color="#3366ff"><em>Tennyson</em></font></strong> </div>
