It's February fourth, 2016! Yes, you're reading this in "the future". Anyhow, since it is this exact day, it means I will go and write off topic.
One day I was watching the moon. Then I thought to myself, why can't we someday live somewhere away from our solar system, where we might not even have moon? Or, instead of having a typical moon, we had something like Earth nearby, and we would live on it's moon. Although it would perhaps be far larger in apparent size by a pretty good factor than the moon is in our sky. Then we would have somewhat satisfactory views of what's happening down there. We would see a change of seasons. We might even see the entire globe change and become white, after which it would start changing again. A year later, it would turn green. Wait, another Earth might have seasons that last a month? Week? few years!? That would be pretty cool wouldn't it? I mean, imagine that. I might not even return to the other Earth, given how neat it would be up there. I could observe "Earth" from a telescope and see how things work, changes, and the really neat things that, well, you might see with a phenomenally powerful lunar telescope pointed at Earth. I mean, think about that. Google or Yahoo maps will only give you SOME data. Yet with a telescope you could even observe a world in real time. And there would be no glitches to worry about as you're scanning the satellite data. Think about if you had your friends living on that Earthlike planet. You could actually observe what they're doing. And then you'd realize, they're not really going anywhere. That's right. And everything down there is tiny, and moves incredibly slow. We know so much about the world, and the universe, don
t we? It's like the ants that are trying to figure out functions of trig. They won't ever do it. Like the animals that are trying to talk to people; have you ever seen that!? That is a great analogy that just goes to show how dumb we all are. There are definit limits to our understanding, that's for sure.
