Light Show

[Meiklelodians]

Ooo thanks, and pretty lights :)

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

They are aren't they. I could buzz around them all night.

[bestVDO]

lol back to basics

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

yep : )

[TheDarwinman]

simple illustration - people will dig it and learn important facts. Sweet.

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Indeed, thanks.

[lstntn]

Thanx for the simple but effective reminder/demo ... really kool.

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Quite welcome. : )

[fizzybgood]

Excellent tip, as always. :)

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Thank you : )

[kirke420]

Who needs a telescope? You could just entertain high people with your lights! :)

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

I'm a wizard.

[TIPinkUnicorn]

BA - just a heads up. Keep a watch out for danny pants. I think he has it in for you.

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

He had better not violate his restraining order I'll tell you that much.

[prodigyat9]

Credits also awesome.

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Thanks bud!

[prodigyat9]

Pure fucking genius. Best orbit demo ever!

[Joeybugman]

Interesting so would we float away in which ever direction we were curently travelling if the suns gravity just got turned off (ya'know, if we didn't die).

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Indeed we would. Think of it more like being thrown away with no friction to stop our momentum. Likely we would eventually be caught by the gravity well of another object, and depending on our speed and trajectory, might either fall directly into it, our course and speed might be altered, or we could go into orbit around it. : )

Yay! Now I can use that as an excuse to get a laser pointer. It's a better excuse than my last one: i want to annoy people.

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

You can't really see it in the videos, but get a green, blue, or violet one. You'll actually be able to see the beam, it's awesome.

[abbynormal0ne]

I'll have to order it, but I'll look into them :)

[mastrama13]

Tip appreciated. :-)

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Excellent. : )

[LatumWay]

Fuck I wish I knew more about astronomy. You are my idol.

BTW did you ever get my letter? and the snuff?

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Negative.

[LatumWay]

FUCK. Well thats £1.50 I'm never getting back.

[tattooskin72]

Why yes, I do appreciate your cool light show :)

[BoardwalkAstronomer]

Thank you sir : )
