Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

I've never done concrete work. I did roofing for a while carrying bundles of shingles up to the roof, that sucked enough

LOL Yup. I've done that. Fuckers wanted me to bring two bundles up every time I climbed the ladder. I did not do so. Fuck 'em. I was not a roofer for long. It paid really poorly, compared to other labor jobs.

Wanna see some real science?

I said fuck that too, and only brought one bundle up the ladder at a time, I did not enjoy that part of the job.

They are crashing a dart into something?

Pretty much. They're smashing a spacecraft into it to test an idea that's basically about defending our planet from asteroids and the likes.

See, a big fucking asteroid has caused at least two extinction events. There's a 100% certainty that it will happen again. The goal here is to smash into it and nudge it into a new path.

Imagine that math and tech! We're smashing a spacecraft into an asteroid a zillion miles away.

Japan has previously hit an asteroid or a comet, I forget which. Or they got really close to it. One of 'em brought dust back from a comet's tail, but I think that one might have been a different mission. In Japan's case, they used a spear to latch onto the object and then reeled the craft into it - I think... I can't possibly keep up with all of this stuff in my retirement, but I think that's how it worked out. Also, I think they tried twice 'cause the first one fucked up - and I'm pretty sure it wasn't the first time they've speared something in space, or tried to. They tried to do it with space junk, but failed.
