The difference is that escape velocity is known in advance, whereas the energy regime in which new physics may be found... is unknown. So it's not like a rocket that can't get to orbit; it's like a rocket that _does_ get to Mars... but fails to find life there. John Savard I hear NASA is getting back into SETI. Must be nice to have all that money to burn. |

LHC is down now, getting a power upgrade. Still, spending $15B and finding something (the Higgs) is better than to have spend $150 billion for nothing (ISS). Please do not post here again until you have a minimum clue: https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/results_category And if you post, either please do not use Google Groups, or work around its bugs. For example, your lines are light-years long, give or take some orders of magnitude; the agreed limit is 80 characters. You can resize your browser window to show only 80 characters per line, or whatever number you prefer. |
