Atmospheres

The oxygen planets are meant to be N2 O2 atmospheres. That is exactly what they were called in SE3.

I am not even sure if it is possible to have an atmosphere of entirely O2. The only reason why there is any O2 in Earth's atmosphere is because there are tons of plants and photosynthetic algae in the oceans that release it. Before life evolved on the earth, there was very little free floating oxygen in the atmosphere.

Slick:
What Kwok said.

My point about the Drake equation was that you should not just accept things that people tell you; you should always be doubtful and question them, exploring the possibilities to figure out for yourself if they are right or not. Many things that have been taught in universities over the centuries have turned out to be wrong.

Hmm.
Testing string theory for yourself might prove difficult.

The existance of quarks on the other hand can be proved, but I think even that would be hard to do yourself.

Some things one have to accept if one finds it reasonable enough!

Ok. That takes looking at the evidence that was used to create the theory, and see if it works, or if it is a load of bunk. I didn't say you had to go do all the experiments yourself.

And that you tell me now!!
I'm almost finished building my particle accelerator down in the basement!
Damn, what should I do with it now??

Maybe turn it into some sort of weapon?

Hmm, yes. Somekind of hunting weapon. Just need a way to make it mobile....
Alot of syncronized terrain going trucks perhaps?

I would appreciate if you run an experiment to detect W-bosons.
