Regardless of interpretation of my previous words, if somebody loves his or her family now, and love the future generations of family, should bother for environment, in which they will live in.. Many people's attitude is "after us, flood can come, whatever"... One bad decision made now, can influence many generations in the next thousands of years. And cause multi-millions of casualties in the future.. Responsibility is in the hands of people now making decisions.

...disappointment of the creator of the Universe... Well, previously I said (extended version of ten commandments): 11) Be smart and intelligent then 12) Don't disappoint me Intelligent life forms don't hurt other life forms (without absolute necessity), don't destroy environment in which they live in.. They do understand entire world and Universe they live in.. cooperate with it.. instead of trying to abuse, destroy it.. essential in it is understanding of the entire quantum physics, chemistry, organics chemistry, biology, biotechnology, informatics etc. etc. ..some call it love.. without truly understanding what it means.. Some see cockroach or spider and want to squeeze him or her.. Some see tree and want to cut it, to build house.. Some see tree and want it to be alive to keep it converting carbon dioxide to oxygen..

Yes I know. If you change the rules during the game, you can have things normally impossible.

I suggest 30 February. It will be good date for it..

37.24 m is length of STS orbiter. 56.1 m is length of entire device with fuel tank attached (brown colored).

There are just ~200 asteroids with diameter 100 km, and ~30 with diameter 200 km. Choice is very limited (at least in Solar System). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asteroid#/media/File:Asteroids_by_size_and_number.svg People call it "baby steps".. Step by step achieving goals from TODO list. If you're unable to reach Moon, and stay there for longer time, it's rather unlikely you will succeed with much more troublesome exploration of the Mars, and very unlikely you will succeed with very troublesome travel to nearby star etc.

But space-shuttle size is 56.1 meters (not 34 meters long). What is "34 Mtr long" if not mass of antimatter (or antimatter+matter together)? It could mean 34 metric long tons ("34 Mtr long").

..you probably misunderstood question.. which was "if spaceship accidentally exploded, could it (explosion) be dangerous to the Earth (which is 192,000 km away from it)"... So, convert mass of antimatter+matter to energy and apply inverse-square law with the above distance, to receive irradiance on the Earth caused by explosion. Voila.

..you're just repeating my wish.. (it's from 2016, not the first one, but that is what Google showed the first)

The future looks very dark when you realize that everybody is working on versatile A.I. (aka A.G.I.), which in the blink of an eye will overpass the all living life forms on the Earth... You all will be long time gone, when I will have "headache" caused by it..

...be smart and intelligent.. Truly intelligent entity is not greedy (so the all sins related to stealing, murdering for money, corruption, selling unhealthy stuff etc. etc. or making something for money only, are covered). Truly intelligent entity is not harming other life forms, without absolute necessity. Truly intelligent entity is voluntarily trying to help less intelligent life forms, without asking or expecting any acknowledgements, especially monetary gratification. Truly intelligent entity understands less intelligent life forms and their objectives (running to be rich, running for power (politician leader), searching for the best possible sexual partner, allowing to successful sexual reproduction etc. etc.). So, truly intelligent entity understands why (temporary) sexual partner is gone (divorce) and/or had lover etc. etc. Truly intelligent entity understands the all world around him, her or it.

On the board of such spaceship there would have to be enough regular matter to annihilate together with antimatter. You're mentioning just antimatter or both matter and antimatter? Explosion would be in frame-of-reference of moving object, obeying inverse-square law, plus-minus some tolerance. Given this info, what would be amount of photons reaching Earth. [math]P = \frac{P_0}{4\pi r^2}[/math] where r = half distance between the Earth and the Moon.. ?

...OP wrote in General Philosophy section of this forum.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contradiction#Philosophy

You made good point. You gave example of user who is willingly seeking for voice-base assistant app. Writing my post, I was more thinking about built-in smartphone, TV and similar devices voice-based assistants, which are enabled by default, which average user of device has no idea about their existence and more importantly how they perform their duties. IT companies have tendencies to enable everything by default, without explaining how things work. After every automatic upgrade of OS I am finding new stuff that installed on my smartphone, stuff that I don't want.. That opens many routes to misusing them.. total invigilation all the time..

...signals sent by humans at the moment are e.g. H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, highly compressed data.. How many people on this planet (not to mention extraterrestrial planets) know how to decode MPEG4.. ? Couple important bits missing during transmission, and you won't be able to decode/reverse engineer it.. ...if there would be global collapse of cooperation between countries, collapse of global trade.. currently existing computers would stop working in couple or couple dozen of years (natural damage of hardware).. Almost nobody knows how to make them. Almost nobody knows how to fix them. Almost nobody knows how to program them. Currently living humans can't even read their own computer and video tapes from '80 and '90 years. Computers and devices which could read them are gone. Any data stored on them are practically useless. But there was no global collapse. Just natural evolution of hardware. Hardware able to read old tapes was thrown to trashcans. New hardware replaced them. Try somebody read VHS and you will have headache. Without device able to read data or receive data, even humans are unable to read human-made data. They're practically indistinguishable from random noise.

Buy? You can make 5000 V DC from 230/110V AC using series of rectifying diodes with capacitors: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockcroft–Walton_generator

Observation = measurement = absorption of photons = they are gone from system under observation. No matter if observer is living organism, or electronic device. They consume photons. If you look at your room, some photons are absorbed by your eye, and gone from the room. If camera is recording your room, some photons are absorbed by it, and gone from the room too.

Who is using voice-based assistants? IMHO only incompetent person.. Such voice-based assistant has microphone turned on all the time, analyzing any sound in the room, can store and/or send it without user knowledge.. i.e. it can be easily misused for total invigilation..

..some people include depression to mental illnesses.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mental_disorders One can get it after e.g. accident and family lost.. Not that I wish you it, just saying what might be origin of mental disorder. I know people who get depression and committed suicide after losing family member(s). ps. Check above list of mental disorders. You will be surprised what is listed...

None particle accelerators are used to fire photons while performing double slit experiment... None particle accelerators are used to fire electrons while performing double slit experiment with electrons... You have never seen a double slit experiment in your life, have you?

Very important, but not mentioned by me in the previous post, is pollution of air, water and soil, by neurotoxins. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurotoxin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurotoxicity The examples are heavy metals compounds such as Lead and Mercury. "Additionally, neurotoxicity has been found to be a major cause of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_poisoning

I spent 15 minutes watching it. It looked fine at the first sigh. He complained that scientists don't know everything and there is missing bit (as always!) without trying to answer it. But second thought was that he showed organic compounds reactions from the book which required extreme cold temperatures like -50 C and hot like T > + 100 C couple times different conditions, as an example of "how could nature make this compound randomly when environment has much moderate temperatures".. Somebody from audience should tell him that these organic compounds are made in moderate living organism temperatures on daily basis at ~ 36-42 C.. They are simply made using different paths, less efficiently, with smaller yield, from different reactants, with different byproducts etc .. i.e. path that is showed by him in the book, is not the only one possible path, in which given organic compound can be created..

There is quite a lot of knowledge presented on Wikipedia. I would start your journey from it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungus If you will have some specific question, feel free to ask. Everything "work" together with everything. But it is not conscious cooperation, like between humans. e.g. there are microbes in guts which are required for animal guts to work. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gut_flora ...you're thinking and writing like humanist.. that there is some hidden conscious "conspiracy" between plants, animals, microbes, fungi, algae etc. etc... I will show you how cooperation evolves during evolution on the example: We have species A, B. A has enemy C. B has enemy D. C is afraid of B, and D is afraid of A. A alone is attacked by C. B alone is attacked by D. A+B together is more evolutionary successful, as they protect each other against their enemies. A and B dies, being eaten by C & D. A+B together survives and continues to "work" together. It's not conscious willingful cooperation. .. I doubt that... Maybe in very very very weak school.. ..because they are not plants..

That's complete nonsense. Misinterpretation at least. Women were not cursed in The Old Testament. See X commandments: there is "Honour thy father and thy mother" not "Honour thy father"..

If you would replace "does not exist" by "it is not true science"... i.e. "Psychiatry Is Not True Science, because [your reasoning here, about inability of scientific verification of person mental illness]".. your statement would have more sense and many more people could agree with it. If there is no reliability of source data, it's no different from reading from tea leaves, or numerology. Some people claim to find something/future in tea bags or leaves etc. Which is obviously false. I agree, there is needed MRI and other highly advanced scientific tools to check somebody hyper or lack of brain activity in certain regions of the brain and comparison with "normal"/"average" working brain (with lack of "reference brain" there must be used "average brain activity"). Medicament used to increase activity of brain if it's too low, other medicament to decrease too high activity (e.g. "psychoactive drugs"). Actually reactions of medicament on the brain, or reactions of hormones, or psychoactive drugs etc. etc. is quite well scientifically documented. There are routinely performed tests on animals, also apes, how they react on lack of, or abundance of certain drugs, and brain activities. You're now talking like people who are asking "when there will be cure for cancer?!".. i.e. it's lack of understanding, and putting everything to one single bag called "mental illness" or "cancer". Each person cancer is completely different from other person cancer. Each person has completely different mutation than other person (apart from obvious mistakes like transfusion or transplantation of organ from person with cancer to the new host etc.). There is nothing common in breast cancer of one women and other women, except placement of the cancer. Don't put them to one bag. Every case is unique. In one case it could be long term lack of chemicals required for normal brain work (improper diet missing essential compounds). In other case it could be attack of known or unknown parasites, fungi, microbes, which interfere with nervous system. In yet another case it could be genetic mutation. etc. etc. f.e. there are fungi which are attacking nervous system of animal like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophiocordyceps_unilateralis and ant is starting behaving abnormally.. Reaction of human nervous system on presence of parasites is not yet fully understood. Especially for unknown parasites. Lack of high level technology equipment in psychiatric hospitals don't help. There used to be cases when somebody had tumor in the brain, and psychiatrists claimed they have some mental illness..
