"China spacecraft returns to Earth"
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/4346962.stm
See video

The Chinese are like NASA buffoons: they come out from the capsule already on the ground like Aldrin and Armstrong.
How have they been able to re-enter to Earth? We'll never know.
We live in TV time but no movie will show us how also these Chinese buffoons have landed on the Earth.
Have they used PCC system? Party Communist Chinese?
No
PCC = Plastic Covered Capsule

Hey 4b, do you think the Chinese put any satellites in orbit?

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

Why yes, no doubt you are right!

I am astounded that you have such insites. Who else could make such strong claims without any consideration of evidence or the lack of it, pro or con.

You must be the Italian version of a Republican... Well done!

Tell ya what b-quad, here's some folks you might talk to. Lay your claims on them and they, after they recover from being awe-stricken in your presence, will assist.

No blood, sweat or tears

An Italian committee is causing uproar by debunking a host of the nation's favourite religious 'miracles', writes Barbara McMahon

Thursday October 6, 2005


The transformation of the "blood" of San Gennaro - but is it a miracle, or just a thixotropic substance? Photograph: Franco Castano/AP



Italy remains a profoundly superstitious country and there was uproar recently when a group of scientists queried a religious rite in Naples in which the dried blood of a saint beheaded in AD305 "miraculously" liquefies.
According to tradition, the transformation of the blood of San Gennaro, preserved in two phials, protects the city from disasters such as earthquakes or an eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

Scepticism about this popular event on the religious calendar, held in Naples cathedral and witnessed by thousands of people every year, has been heard before.

This time, members of the Italian Committee for the Investigation of the Paranormal (Cicap) have said the red-coloured contents are a thixotropic substance, based on iron chloride. This means that it liquefies when stirred or vibrated and returns to solid form when left to stand. According to Cicap, the substance was probably stumbled upon by an alchemist or a painter in medieval times.
Attempts to explode the myth about Naples' much-loved patron saint has however, reignited the debate about science versus faith in Italy.

Members of Cicap, who include Umberto Eco and two winners of the Nobel Prize, have been accused of trying to undermine the religious beliefs of the dwindling numbers of the faithful. They have also been called spoilsports and compared to magicians who reveal their tricks.
These guys will be delighted to check out your conjectures.

Edited to add: Of course they got out of the capsul on the ground! Do you expect them to get out before then?

Hey BreakBalls there use to be this complete loser named BigBrain who also used the term 'NASA baffoons', but he left...

Geez, what are the odds you would use the same term and the same IP as him.

Ignorant Post?

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Hey BBBB, when the ESA sends a man into space and then to the moon or even Mars will you then believe? Cause thats the plan. WHEN it happens, will you eat your hat? Or will you start in with the ESA (your country is an 18% member)are a bunch of buffoons.

I hope you realize that the ESA (your country is an 18% member) has been sending satellites into orbit on Ariens rockets for years now.

Just flying through space with the rest of you...

Just a friendly reminder that this person (BigBrain) is only "ball breaking" and is only trying to get a rise out of you.

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini

Naples is another country.
The Chinese capsule has landed with parachutes. Why haven't they filmed its landing on the hard ground?
Because no landing has happened.
Chinese astrobuffoons, like Aldrin and Armstrong, have simulated re-entry with that orrible capsule but they have never gone to space.
If NASA buffoons have already been on the moon, why do they want to go there again?
They should send men to Mars.
The problem is always the same: they don't know how to land on Mars without smashing against the ground and how to re-enter in our atmosphere without becoming roast chikens.

They ARE sending men to Mars, dummie. Just not so soon - if you knew a lil about what you're talking about, you'd know it takes [gasp] TIME to make such missions.

Have you seen how it's easy to swindle people of our little world?
The Chinese have shown an orrible rocket that starts to the space, then an orrible capsule that has landed, already on the ground.
Two astronauts simulate to come out from the capsule.

All gullible people of our poor world believe the Chinese have sent two men to space.

Also you have swindled all gullible people of our gullible world when you simulated to go to the moon. You have done the same thing.
YOU OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES

Hmph. Glad I've turned my hearing aid off.....

And you should be ashamed of yourself for promoting unsupported blather in a public venue, and generally creating a nuisance.

C'mon 2-squared-b, talk's cheap; it takes money to buy good whiskey. Give us some evidence or I'll tell the Pope you've been molesting nuns again. Then you'll be in deep shit! He'll make you clean the Vatican horse stable with your tongue....

Pope is another deluded and gullible man. If God existed, he would never have made this world of shit.

Yeah, I know. But I'll tell him anyway, even if it's a lie...

Remember, this one was once in the Hitler Youth and as a cardinal, he was in charge of what used to be the Inquisition. All he needs is no more than the feeblist excuse to to do horrible things to you.

I'll tell him you're a blaspheming heretic just like me; then you'll change your tune...

Have the Chinese gone to space?
Yes, as Saddam had a lot of nuclear bombs.
Yes, as a big plane can crash against Pentagon and vanish.
Yes, as two powerful skyscrapers of 500,000 tons can be destroyed by two ridiculous plane of 200 tons.
Yes, as a rocket can go backwards using its engine as a brake.

Many reasons, I think that national prestige, scientific return and huge leaps in technological development are some of them.

I agree completely, and I think that not only NASA should, but many other countries and space agencies should as well.

Both NASA and the Soviet Union have successfully landed probes on Mars, so it is certainly possible, and more will follow from NASA and ESA, to prepare for human missions. Re-entry into Earth's atmosphere is tricky but has been done many times since the dawn of the space age.
