NASA to Announce Success of Long Galactic Hunt

WASHINGTON -- NASA has scheduled a media teleconference Wednesday, May 14, at 1 p.m. EDT, to announce the discovery of an object in our Galaxy astronomers have been hunting for more than 50 years. This finding was made by combining data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory with ground-based observations.

The bets are open on what this discovery will be about!

I'm betting on a white fountain.

(Or 42 )

^god's last message to his creation perhaps?


Or those clever chaps at nasa have discovered the sun :lol:

I can't think of what nasa have been looking for for over 50 years..

It'd be cool if it was intellegent life, but I think X-ray astronomy doesn't look for such things.

Probably going to be a huge anticlimax.

Probably going to be a huge anticlimax.

Yeah I also think so...

...which is why I'm happy to have 5 more hours to speculate & hope

maybe it's a planet similar to our earth by which I mean.. inhabitable.

 

[thadivine]

or they mean they found it 50 years ago and will finally tell us ^^?

42

Mine's on 42 as well, just two huuuuuge 2D digits floating in space

Maybe it's a chunk of ice with some microscopic lifeforms frozen in it? Or a tiny black hole?

Maybe it's some of NASA's own stuff or a toolkit they'd lost 50 years ago in their attempt to go to the moon

 

[Guest]

Maybe it's the tree of life?

 

[HeartCore]

Maybe they finally found Osama in orbit around the earth?

"The most recent Supernova"

[VerusDeus]

How the phuk can they spend 50 years chasing a supernova?

 

[Guest]

that was it ? they found a supernova ?
what a dissapointment. i was hoping for something major to ignorant people like me...something that i could understand
"we found a supernova" isn't that appealing for me.
"we found god's toilet" - now, there's something that would catch my attention.

 

[Guest]

Damn, seems like we'll have to wait for a bit longer before meeting our friends from OUTER-SPACE !

 

[Nathaniel]

Well actually they discovered the supernova in 1984..Now they discovered it's only 140 years old!

...




hmm still doesn't get more exciting for us spacenoobs does it :roll:




Oh well X-files Movie is on in half an hour
Amazing Discovery's what we want darnit! :lol:
