how far do you think we can get into space

**Hooger** · 04-06-2006, 05:34 PM

moon.

**Vanden** · 04-06-2006, 05:36 PM

we alreadly went past the moon

**Hooger** · 04-06-2006, 05:59 PM

ok err... mars' moon

**Vanden** · 04-06-2006, 06:00 PM

i think we are past the solar system with some sat i read it some where

**Hooger** · 04-06-2006, 06:08 PM

well we can see out of our galaxy and farther so i think we will first be able to send probes out passed our solar system then eventually maybe AI shuttles the humans maybe

Well if your talking about how far humans can go into space I would say as far as Mars (within 50 or more years), on the other hand if you were talking about man made things like Voyager 1 and 2 they whent a long way out there and there still progressing into the the solar system (heres a link to the voyager incase your wondering about how many miles they have whent check it out here http://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/...orts/index.htm). One day in the very distant future we will probly go as far or much further then Voyagers are going... :icon_bigg

they have this satalite that can take pictures from the other side of the universe. its pretty amazing, i saw it on Daily PLanet. ill try and find it.

planet n00b

**TheRaiderNation** · 04-07-2006, 02:21 PM

seriously i think we are unna get really far into space, regardless of how long it takes.

I think I read somewhere that voyager 1 and 2 are now out of our solar system. They broke some barrier (termination shock or something) where they are facing space winds that travel at something like 17 km a second. Then after that there's pretty much nothing for hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

Theoreticaly you can send something to the edge of the universe and possibly beyond, it will just take a long time.

The universe is mostly empty space. Even in a "crowded" region like our solar system, the distances between planets are so vast that they are difficult to imagine. This animation simulates a voyage from the sun past all nine planets. For convenience, the planets are lined up in the same direction. The animation shows each planet's average distance from the sun.

At the speed of today's fastest spacecraft (~20 km/second), it would take almost ten years to travel this distance. Even at the speed of light, the trip would last 5 1/2 hours. In this animation, the apparent speed of the viewer is over 300 times the speed of light.

We won't be getting very far any time soon, if ever.

^Yeah, I read around on the nasa site about that really cool stuff!

Post it when every you get around to it!

you know if we have satelites that can take pics of things on the otherside of the galaxy why don't we just zoom into some planets around our galaxy maybe we well see an alien crashing his car=-)(you get what i mean i hope)

Well if we find ways to propel forms of matter throughout space at light speed or close to it *cough* *h-bomb* *cough* and keeping it's form, then we can reach those planets such as mercury in a matter of minutes, unforturnanatly if we wizz by a planet it's gravetational pull won't be anything close to being able to pull the object twords it therefore it will be going through space for a very, very long time.
