Thank's very much! <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> Seems there are still people out there that assume this is correct a matter of fact. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p> </p><p><span style="color:#ff9900" class="Apple-style-span">-pyoko</span> <span style="color:#333333" class="Apple-style-span">the</span> <span style="color:#339966" class="Apple-style-span">duck </span></p><p><span style="color:#339966" class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color:#808080;font-style:italic" class="Apple-style-span">It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.</span></span></p> </div>

Here's a direct link to the computer animation of the sagittarius dwarf satellite<br /><br />http://astsun.astro.virginia.edu/~mfs4n/sgr/sgr.flyaround.mpg<br /><br />I think it's pretty amazing, but from where the camara is theoretically at, there's probably not <br />a clue that we exist, since earth's radio and tv signals won't reach there for perhaps another 1 or<br />2 hundred thousand yrs.<br /><br />But here's another thought, another intelligent life looking for us would probably try to look <br />around the places where 2 galxies intersect, that way you can search for life on 2 different<br />galxies at the same location simultaneously, and indeed, right now we are supposed to be at<br />one of the intersecting points. If our galactic year is 240 million yrs, then approximately every<br />120 million yrs. we are at an intergalactic intersection <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />!<br /> <br /><br />(edit: and this is the actual link to the webpage in case it's necessary:<br /> http://astsun.astro.virginia.edu/~mfs4n/sgr<br /> thanks.)<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
