Never change, Russia. Never change.

#3Would sterile neutrinos as an oscillation really change anything about dark matter? The total mass of neutrinos doesn't change, just the lepton number.

#4> sterile neutrinos
It's funny when one encounters serious real-world discussion on something previously seen as sci-fi technobabble.
In this case, I'm thinking of the Destiny universe, such as this apocalyptic alert from a military AI. [0]
> Multiple distributed ISR assets report a TRANSIENT NEAR EXTRASOLAR EVENT. Event duration ZERO POINT THREE SECONDS. Event footprint includes sterile neutrino scattering and gravity waves. Omnibus analysis detects deep structure information content (nine sigma) and internal teleonomy. No hypothesis on event mechanism (FLAG ACAUSAL). Bootstrap simulation suggests event is DIRECTED and INIMICABLE (convergent q-Bayes/Monte Carlo probability approaches 1). No hypothesis on deep structure encoding (TCC/NP-HARD).

I'm curious how this works, it looks as if there's one central underwater valve and two above-water valves, perhaps supposedly-breathable air is getting bubbled up through the tank?

Some napkin-math [egregious mistake corrected] to visualize how much that is, and I get "45 oil drums".

double check that math - olympic pool is 50x25x2 meters, or 2500m3. 1 m3 of water is roughly 1 metric ton (1 g/cc = 1 kg/L = 1 t/m3) depending on temperature and such.
57000000g / 5.9 g/cc = 9661017 cc = 9.661m3

You can't get them all right. To be fair, they used pencils while NASA spent time and money to have a pen that writes in 0g.

That's just a myth, you know: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/fact-or-fiction-n...

Whoops, yeah, made a few mistakes. Next time I'll do the usual and open a throwaway spreadsheet. Also, picking gallium-density from a slightly higher temperature where it's liquid.

Fischer made the space pen as a commercial product, all R+D entirely at their own expense. NASA just bought some of the pens from them.
