Re: Is Anybody Out There?
I just realised after reading the other thread completely (The meaning of Life), this and that are actually bordering on the same topic. Happy to merge if so desired. Easiest way is to just report the thread in case I forget to check back here. Which is highly likely given it's a race weekend and l...

@runningman: Im a non religious person, so I find it hard to believe something can be created out of nothing.

Re: Is Anybody Out There?
We don't know what caused life to occur on Earth. God is one of the theories. I cannot disprove the fact that God exists, anymore than a believer can prove that God does exists. But if the conditions were equal, including the 'vacuum planets such as Jupiter' and no life existed, it may add a little...

Re: The meaning of life thread
The more we learn, the less we know. Is that by design or just physics, or are we all just pixels in a 3d game without meaning. This phrase "The more we learn, the less we know" is rather an oxymoron - it can't be so. And it is not so. The phrase is there to say that, that more we learn, that more ...

The meaning of life thread
Personally I have a romantic view that we are the eyes of the universe and that we are here so that the universe can view itself, giving it a reason to exist at all. We are witnesses to it's own creation, animated stardust, so to speak. My other view is that we are a by product, quirk of physics, ra...

Less than 20 seconds to do the distance of the entire Australian GP. Fast, but still takes over 5 hours to cover the distance light covers in one second in a vacuum.

Voyager 1 Leaves the Solar System at 10 miles a second.
No human artefact has ever reached so deep into the cosmos. A measure of the distance travelled is that it takes a staggering 16 hours for Voyager 1's radio messages to arrive on Earth. Standing in NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California two years ago, I watched as data from the lonely craft ...

Lets see. I'm not so good at predictions and it is early, I'd be happy with 3 out of 5Formula1Fan. wrote:lol I made a thread like this last year and only managed to get 3 out of 5 (and this was a few races in).
So, the short answer is 'no', it's way to early.

This seasons top 5 already decided?
Can't help but think that the Australian GP top 5, will remain just that at the end of the season. Hopefully, a different order, with Lewis at the top. They are all hungry and Massa is a slow and consistent burner. I just can't see where the threat to those five drivers will come from.
