so basically its easier for us to build rocket ships to fly outside of the planet and play around in space then it is for us to go to far into the ocean. crazy.
See the flat earth thread :tinfoil:

i spend time out on the open seas for my job. it's humbling to go outside sometimes and look at the open horizon. the whole idea of it is crazy....unfathomably large body of water, whose waves are controlled by the gravitational pull from a rock and some burning gas 100000s of miles away. :wow:


i sometimes get freaked out when i'm out there and think....if i slip and fall off right now, they ain't finding me:bryan:

fukk that. Let them sleep. Whatever's down there doesn't need to be trifled with. You want to bring up Leviathans and Beelzebubs and such?
i use to be the first one to say we need to get in that ocean . but after watching this I might have to side with you. maybe that stuff is better left alone. But...But..what if their's a cure for a bunch of diseases down there Not that the big companies would give it to the patient's. they would just dumb down the potency and slang it as medicine to keep you barely hanging on.

Space exploration > ocean. I guarantee that the government has more info on life outside planet earth than they're admitting.
to say that space exploration is better than ocean is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. How would you know this if you've never gone but X far in the ocean?

You see those strange looking fish. no tellin whats down there. what we do know so far is that their aint a darn thing on the moon. not one thing. we assume nothing can survive on venus, mercury. They just said Jupiter has cyclones as large as a planet. Now we know you aint surviving that. so probably nothing to see there either. You over here looking for aliens and you have them right in your own back yard.

Fam, space exploration is a lot more than just looking for aliens.

We went into the trench but never touch the bottom. We still can figure out how to protect equipment from pressurization after x amount of km under sea. There's something like 15,000 psi for every km you go down...its insane. It will be a long time before we reach the "bottom" and even then it's going to become a matter of having the tools to explore it properly.
lol I wonder what kind of shyt we would see if we could actually get a machine all the way to that bottom and shine a big ass 360 light around and film for a little

Nikka you sound stupid. You're talking about 3 or 4 planets when there's literally an infinite amount of them. Hopefully in thousands of years or whenever when we need to colonize another planet they'll be people smart enough to put more resources into space exploration instead of trying to see rare ugly ass fish. :heh:

Got damn, at least one other person gets it.
