Er... This club is for all kinds of outer space stuff!
Here, we will discuss planets, moons etc.
Join if you are interested!

I'll join as well..
I've always kinda liked this sorta stuff.... mostyle Astrophysics though.. I hope I'm not the only one who knows Steven Hawking..
Have you heard how they've discovered another planet in our Solar System?

Welcome to this club, both of you!
Cool! I'll join! Ever been to Space.com?
Er... no. *goes there now*
Have you heard how they've discovered another planet in our Solar System?
Er... Yes I have. I saw it in a thread in "Other Chat".

I heard of that! I wonder what they'd call it...
STJ
September 4th, 2005, 11:13 AM
Hmm.. From What I've heard, they called it Xena..
Of course, this is from a Horoscope, so I may be wrong...

Woah... That is a mysterious name...
I'm going to add a poll to this club.
Anyone got any ideas for the question?

How about 'Do you like space?' :P

Gosh, Astronomy's such a vast subject...but I'll give it a shot...
Who/what's your favourite Atronomer? Star constellation? Planet?
Just saw your post, Angelwolfie.. ummm... I can't think of anything at the moment :D

I like Ursa Major, it's the easiest constelation to spot :P

I don't like a specific thing about space.
I like space coz it so mysterious and beautiful...
*sounds like a idiot*

Woah... this club is already on the 2nd page...
My favourite constellation is probably Orion. My favourite planet is Pluto because it is cold.

yeah, me too *is also lazy*
Is Ursa major in the Norhtern Hemisphere?

I recently saw a weird movie called Plymouth about people settling on the moon. Interesting concept.

let's check something, how many (guess) extra solar planets are there?

Tee-hee-hee! Tch, I watch alotta docs 'bout astronomy, tch, so I'm joinin'! ^_^ My favourite constellation ish Draco! ^^
Extra solar planets? Hmm, tch, I'd say a few billions of billions... out of which... I dunno how many would have life on 'em... I'd say about 10 or so.
Appropriate conditions for life are so very few out there, most planets being extreme, tch, plus tha chances of complex chemical reactions like life have a very slim chance of happening, let alone bein' lucky enough ta survive, like ours has so far...
Settling ppl on tha moon? Well it's got alot of Helium 3 that can be extracted an' used as fuel ta visit other stars, tch, like Alpha Centauri, but meh, tch, space programs're always changing. Who knows what other means of transport they'll think of by tha time they actually make a base there. I say they should go for nuclear propulsion...
Personally, when I think about astronomy at an even broader scale it's kinda discouraging. The Universe will die out, our galaxy is slowly being eaten by black holes, distances between stars are so great... but I'm still hoping that man will overcome all these problems. ^^;;

alright my roumanian brother's joing, was up! plus the one we found actualy have only near 112 or so. one was found of 3 times jupeter'ssize and with life giving atmosphere!. it's a rediculos size. if we only found planet's in our galaxie. then in a galaxie there's billions of stars witch there's a HUGE amount of galaxies you do the math, it's so ridiculos!!!! th end of our (not "our") universe will be cause by to many black holes in witch two will suck each other creating a destructive power that no man or women can imagine! but there;s to many universes in witch some have totaly different thing like laws of gravity!

I inda agree with ya there. Tch, tha closer ya get to tha galaxy's center tha more big stars ya have(some are even 2 milliontimes bigger than our own), an' it's only natural that when acellestial body of that mass goes nova that it'll collapse under its own gravitationalfield an' form a black hole. It therefor kinda makes pure sense that tha center of our galaxy is, indeed, a black hole. Aside from being planet eaters, black holes also offer an interesting show -- their gravitational field is so strong that it causes light ta orbit around it in much tha same way as planets orbit stars... or other black holes.
As for gigantic planets, well most of what NASA has uncovered so far are just such planets. A solar system with at least 3 planets in it is actually a very rare sight for astronomers, tch, so I guess we should consider ourselves lucky. ^^;;
Different Universes, eh? Well a black hole IS a microscopic gap in time an' space, tch, so I guess it is only natural that whatever happens in there defy tha laws of physics. Yes, one theory is that that matter is taken ta other Universes, although I'm sure that by tha time it reaches that other Universe it will have become pure energy, after having been subjected ta such an enormous gravitational force.

yo roumanian bros. are solar system has 17 yes 17 planets i have real proof but, BH will never take you to a parallele universe NEVER it will kill, disintegrate, tair the **** out of you even if you have super advanced tecnologie, other universes will never be the same exacly, in a different universe insted of being 18 you might be 12! there are an rudiculous amount of those things. a galavie could have a nursury (star maker) the theory that the senter of the universe is a black hole is weird because the gravity kicks it self making the ability to make its "arms" spin. yet a black hole has the power to take a life giving star and take it away for ever, incredible what so little we know about even our galaxie, but i say that the senter might be some sort of core holding alot of redeoactive energy. and if it was a black hole how could it be that alot of galaxie have "moon galaxies" that are spining around a so much biger galaxie that just kills every law of gravity!
