    Has anyone claimed Jupiter yet? I want Jupiter. It's got the largest repository of methane (natural gas) within at least four light years. It may even have a solid diamond core! I'll be rich!

    Re: Here we go again on ownership of celestrial bodies.

    getting there and back with it is the problem. also, it occurs to me that bringing the methane from another celestrial body here to be burned would definitely raise the carbon footprint higher than is natural for our planet.

    i'm wondering who is going to say, i own uranus.:roll::cry::p:p:p

    Did you know that Uranus has a ring system? It can only be seen with a mirror, though.

    Let's try something else--People keep asking for a solar PV power system wiring diagram...:

    Is that a flux capacitor near I 45? :D. I am sure that makes it work.

    Thanks, Bill; I shall refer to that excellent wiring diagram the next time I have to fix a non-functioning system. I'm sure it is accurate in every detail. ;)

    They've probed uranus several times, does anyone know what was found?
