[KingOfThe4Way]

@vikingvic DUDE,U,WOULD,TRPPPPPOUTTTT

[kpchronic]

Making Contact. GRRreeegg!! When,you expressed your desired to observe the flashes. I took upon myself the responsibility to try and solve this crusade.Your words struck me.Mathematic improved,refined itself and given to me in the form of a simple seed. An idea. A solution for a very complex intertwined dilemma. I Created a bulb on a stick,and i called it The Flashlight.I took this exquisite device and gave it a purpose,thus pointing towards my corneas. I went o places that no man went before^^

GRRrreeeeeeeeegggGGG!

Sir.

[Hmrsmshdfce]

this guy is retarded high in every video.

[blueslady77]

do you wack off in space?

[WindKayak]

People swiming around in the station matrix dodging your sperm?

[fatal9er]

Never A Straight Answer

[knockproductions]

Wow I just found out that Stephan Hinz the person that made this question Also makes great music check out this great song and great video:  vimeo(.)com/5744152

In January 2008, Jenna Miscavige Hill, niece of David Miscavige, spoke out about the policy's effect on her family. She revealed that, once her parents left and she remained in the group, she had been forbidden to answer the telephone in case she spoke to them and that her parents only restored occasional access to her by threatening legal action.

Disconnection is NOT a personal choice, contrary to what Scientology says.

[aeolismensae]

"What does astronaut Greg Chamitoff think about the Disclosure Project?"

[Ampex101]

Imagine droping Acid while in Space! talk about a Trip!!!

[XxnesiexX]

he had a Hallucination and he posted it on his journal

[scissormetimbers8]

is their some protocol for if you meet aliens up their? Does NASA consider it?

[XxnesiexX]

its very unlikely as we are a long way away from other planets but new planets some

closer to us are bieng discovered all the time

[RojiUraBokuToKimiE]

speed of light is not the limit. look from this perspective - light is going from A to B, and another light beam from B to A.. it is alreade double the speed...

[XxnesiexX]

well were no where near getting near the spead of light plus please explain tehy are going at the same speed

[RojiUraBokuToKimiE]

imagine you are travelling on the space ship and the beam of light passes your ship in the opposite direction. The beam of light will appear travveling not at Light speed to you but at Light Speed + you spaceship speed

[XxnesiexX]

o right i get it now thanks

[theshadowify]

@RojiUraBokuToKimiE WOW, this post is from a year ago. Actually The beam of light would still look to be going the speed of light to you. It never exeeds the speed of light. This exactly the kind of thing that confused Einstein, which was the bases of him developing the theory of relativity. He had come to the conclusion that if light was constant, something had to give. That was time itself had to change.

[valensmann]

It is a well known fact that the speed of light is fixed. There is no relativity. Instead what happens is that the time warps.

Besides, just because two beams of lights are meeting eachother doesn't mean that both or one of them are going 2x the speed of light. If im driving a car and a car drives past me with the same speed as me, doesen't mean that im going 2x the actual speed.

You need to read up on your special relativity.

[RojiUraBokuToKimiE]

you are not going 2x the speed, but you will see 2x the speed

[kapazas2002]

How do your teeth feel in space?

[041915876]

Since there is no gravity, as you swallow food/liquid, how is it possible for it to go down to your stomach through the esophagus?

[power4487]

the muscles in your esophaugus move the food down into your stomach

[Ironstick12]

your blood is like a current. it guides the food down to teh stomach.

[041915876]

This has nothing to do with blood. Blood stays inside the vessels, I guess power4487 is right, due to involuntary contractions of the esophageal wall, thats what causes the food to go down. But then again, when i get heartburn its because the acid is traveling towards the top. Now imagine that without gravity.

[crazzzme]

there was internet in the 60-70 nsfnet and ARPANET

[helpcat208]

When in space have you seen a UFO and has the top brass told you if you see this keep your mouth shut? let me know...

[AnimusAeternus]

The internet is TUBES!

[Spanky00Cheeks]

From what I gather no shielding can protect you from cosmic rays. The only thing helping is is the magnetic core of the Earth. If you get far away enough from the core, there will be a higher probability of coming upon some cosmic radiation.

[Rendova1]

Think of it like this.

You can connect to the internet via satellite. We're 200 miles below the satellites. They're level with them. Even if they're zipping around the Earth every 15 minutes, there are plenty of satellites hovering around all over the place.

At least that's how I figure it works :|

[reaton33]

interduced.... does anyone else think the same thing I am?

[SketchRazor]

Man, imagine the tensity between astronauts stuck in a ship that long together. I could almost imagine it as a soap opera. I know I'd get sick of somebody if I had to live with them in a cramped ship for years.

[Thatmonster433]

dude stop now before someone makes a reality show out of ur idea.... lol

[jaspr1999]

Yeah... Another show called "Lost.....in Space"

Warning Will Robinson Warning.

[Darkslyfox]

it's Danger dumbass :P

Danger Will Robinson, Danger!

[jaspr1999]

Yup... I be the dumbass... The Robot said both lines. The warning always came when Dr. Smith had another brilliant idea. It was a running joke all the way up through Babylon 5.

[Thatmonster433]

lmao u know its inevitable now...

[guym20]

how the fuck does internet work in space

[Pimpmastahanhduece]

same way a wireless home network works, just instead of a 30ft wireless connection, its done between satellites like as if u have a bluetooth adapter and a bluetooth receiver on a LAN if you dont have a wireless connection otherwise.These computers,more powerful than most home computers,still use the same formats and operating systems.If you know the processing codes,you can control the rover on mars,it works sorta like a email back and forth system.U send, it sends back a photo as attachment

[GannMan05]

I'm not making fun or anything and i'm no expert, but how do you think they transmitted data down in the 60's? It's just signals. My guess is they don't actually have internet, but someone gets the video down on Earth and posts it on YouTube themselves.

[jakelalonde85]

The Internet is series of electromagnetic waves our computers can see and understand. It works the same way in our brains when our eyes take in light. The waves that computers and brains can interpret are all different vibrations of electrons on the same electromagnetic spectrum. Electrons throw off PHOTONS and those photons tell other electrons to be anything from a Radio Waves to a Gamma Rays. Visible light is somewhere in between.

[fallingfromjupiter]

whats it like to float in space without a suit

jk

[hananfash]

youre absolutely amazing!

when youre up there...do you ever get to actually stand in space..how does that feel..what does it smell like? does it even smell at all?? and this is kinda gross...but how do you guys shower and go to the bathroom..ive heard of all types of weird stories..but none made sense...and what would you do with the wastes??

and finally...how and what do you eat? is it harder because theres no gravity? are there special foods??and what do you do wen someone gets sick?

[upgradepro]

hello,could you show us what its like outside from where you are,thanks.

Gary

[rumpelstiltskin157]

Look at that smile! I think he's hallucinated at some stage or other!

[shalleyah]

hell, if i'd be up there, i would have a smile so freaking big my head would fall apart hahah ;)

wouldn't you?????

But instead I'm down here working a job i do not like, no wonder i don't have such a smile hehhe :D

[Boofer007]

[mac000111]

I agree.

[lonerook860]

[luvDUH]

Katie-

just use ur dang camera!!!!

[skatebinder]

internet must be like 1gb/s up there

[bohemiansfc07]

ask a ninja not an astronoat :D great idea fair play to the guy

[the3master]

Francisco Cazarez, 15, Venezuela

hey there, well my question is: did you ever saw something strange or unexplainable while looking through the window? any weird light or something?

[trandorzx]

LOL

[anmoose]

This is great!! Thanks to Greg for getting involved in this! There are so many little things, and curiosities, that those of us stuck on Terra Firma wonder about. By bringing this to the personal level, I think there's much we can learn, and hopefully it can be an enjoyable experience for everyone involved. Including the Astronauts.

[Nixesius]

What he says is that he didn't see anything yet, but he'll go sleep somewhere else because he wants to see the flashes.

He didn't experience anything yet, apparently.

[bosskaggs]

as if he would admit to seeing things anyway...career GONE

[XxnesiexX]

no it wouldn't

if its not his fault

[b33133rice]

How do you get youtube up there?

[XxnesiexX]

he has internet up there so he can watch himself in space

[calciumblue]

I wanna float around in space... man... lucky...
