American Society for Gravitational and Space Research "We seek to expand the knowledge of the impact of these environments on biology and physical systems, and to mentor the next generation of scientists and engineers. We are scientists in academic, commercial and federal laboratories seeking to understand how gravity shapes our world. Gravity is a fundamental force in which the effects on biological and physical systems are not well understood. Understanding how gravity acts upon fundamental life and physical world mechanisms parlays into thousands of applications. For space exploration to succeed, this requires a better grasp of gravity."
Gravity does affect life. If the earth was bigger it's gravity would be stronger, so life would have adapted to a stronger gravity. For example humans have adapted to earths gravity. If humans go to the moon they would have to adjust. Such as transportation. Instead of walking on the moon (which is how our bodies are made to move) humans have to skip/leap around (not how humans are made to move) because of the low gravity. We have evolved to walk because that was the most efficient way for the human species. But if we lived on the moon, we would have evolved into skipping, jumping, etc. So that's how gravity plays a role in life. It's pretty silly to think the planets positions shape personalities.
My horoscope for the day reads " you should tackle emotional or work problems with determination and complete honesty" Now if that isn't supernatural clarivoyance, I don't know what is!
Let me help: "You will tackle work problems ethically and honestly. You will continue to avoid emotional problems in the same manner that you have for the last 30 years." I am ready for my PHD.
H-scope should read, "Yet once more you will be hated by huge numbers of people that you've never met, and for things that you had nothing to do with." That's guaranteed to be true.
Gravity is a limiting factor to some extent from my understanding. Redwoods grow to about the max they can with the current gravity, they just don't have the strength and/or the power to pull water any higher. With lower gravity that tax would be released and the could grow taller; vice versa for higher gravity. I think this could be extrapolated to animals as well. I'm not sure with dinos but from what I understand higher O2 concertrations allowed insects to grow much larger in dino times.
Have you properly found out what you astrological sign is? Since astrology was created,The earth's variable tilt has set your astrological sign off by one month. I dont follow astrology though, i just know a little about it
Being the pig of a man that I am, I always used astrology as a tool to hook up with women.... worked well......"Ass"trology......
This is pretty relevant.. to your comment, not the thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BickMFHAZR0
Yes because of energy conserving adaptations and consuming mass amounts of energy : fat from other animals
I once opened my wife's astrology book to her and read her a random horoscope. She thought it was hers. Then I did it again for another sign. It was that moment she realized the truth. The horoscopes are extremely vague in a specific enough way to apply to almost anyone who reads them. Making them seem true. -yuri
If anybody wants to know more about this phenomenon, it is called the Forer Effect, and it is an essentialy component of confidence-trickery and mentalism. It's not a bad thing, and being fooled doesn't make anyone silly or ignorant. It is an interesting heuristic device used by our brains to make sense of the world, and it can quite a bit of fun when somebody really understands it! What I think is the most interesting aspect of this, is that when most people encounter something that seems astonishing, they ask themselves the question "How could this person have tricked me?". When one cannot find an explanation, they may erroneously accept the astonhsing event as true and paranormal. I think the second answer that many people ignore is the follow-up of "How could I have tricked myself?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haP7Ys9ocTk
Our brains are constantly tricked into falsehoods about our environment, which can sometimes be quite disturbingly persistent : http://youtu.be/G-lN8vWm3m0
Bam! These guys nailed it! Remember: The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool. - Richard Feynman \n
