Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space Heh, I'm almost susprised they'd admit it was a failure (even in such covert terms). It's too bad political problems prevent cooperation on space programs in nations like Iran. I mean, imagine if all those (somewhat) isolated space programs actually combined forces and invest money and know-how into the same projects. It could use the ISS as a stepping stone even.
Either way, space programs are great. But sure sucks to be that monkey.  _________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place? I'm-a be a one-man cheeseburger apocalypse." - Coach |

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space Politics seem to always get in the way of science, at least when there's money involved.

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space Its perfectly normal because science brings about uncontrollable change which the politicians fear like wildfire.

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space damned good point. The people in control don't want change... change can only result in them losing control. Stupid humanity. Sometimes it's interesting to wonder what it would be like if people in their 20s actually ran the world, instead of people in their 50s and above.

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space Early 20s would be bad i guess, late 20s would be ok i guess.

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space lol @ Peltz. How old are you, early 30s? In a few years, you'll think 20s is bad, but 30s is ok... 10 years later, maybe late 30s is ok... 10 years after that, anyone under 40 is retarded.
 I'll admit that people in their 20s (especially early 20s) tend to lack experience, which makes many of their decisions ill-advised. This is talking in general, of course. Still, they're more likely to try things, fail, and try again, which means a world run by them would, at very least, be interesting and different. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space I wouldn't let the world be run by 20-yr old me, that's for sure. Though i'd still prefer that guy over many other current leaders.
 It's funny...when I was 15 I thought 30 yr old people were old and parents etc etc. Now I'm nearly that age and I feel pretty non-old (I wouldn't say YOUNG exactly). Of course, I'm very clearly suffering some sort of bizarre extended adolescence. But even then...I wonder how i'll feel at 40. _________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place?

Re: Iran's space monkey didn't make it into space Young ass douche bastard. Anyway, I'm 36 and I feel no more mature or old or whatever then I did when I was 18. *shrug* I'm more experienced... I'm more willing to do and see (and drink and eat) strange things. That's about it. I'm also in way better physical shape.
I'm sure I'll keep getting older and will always feel the same. The only different is my body will start to fail me. Stupid body. Hurry up with the freaking stem cell treatments, or the singularity or something. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |
