"Sure he did. As historian Samuel Eliot Morison's writes in his The European Discovery of America concerning Columbus and his voyage(s) of discovery: quoting A glance at a map of the Caribbean may remind you of what he Columbus accomplished: discovery of the Bahamas Cuba and Hispaniola on the First Voyage; discovery of the Lesser Antilles Puerto Rico Jamaica and the south coast of Cuba on the Second as well as founding a permanent European colony; discovery of Trinidad and the Spanish Main i.e. the north coast of South America on his Third; and on the Fourth Voyage Honduras Nicaragua Costa"

"The ancient Egyptians were primitive in mathboth algebra and geometry not to speak of numeration (which collectively is all math was at the time)compared with their contemporaries the (Old) Babylonians. Mathematical historians Carl B. Boyer and Uta C. Merzbach discuss this issue in their intriguing History of Mathematics 2nd Edition 1991. As the authors write: quoting Egyptian algebra had been much concerned with linear equations but the Babylonians evidently found these too elementary for much attention. The solution of a three-term quadratic equation seems to have exceeded by far the"

"@FELibrary_ No light is cold. Light (electromagnetic radiation) is composed of photons (the quanta of light) which individually possess energy E = hf (where h is Planck's constant and f is the frequency of the light in Hertzi.e. cycles per second). This number is inevitably positive"

"@OMApproach a) Answer: he didn't. What he drew was the Terra Australis Incognita appearing on dozens of maps from that era. b) You show both Antarctica and the Terra Australis Incognita at radically different scalesthat's the only way it appears to workand appearances are deceiving"

"@probnstat If the World were deterministic that would be correctbut it isn't (wholly) deterministic. New random information generated via probabilistic rules gets steadily injected into the Cosmos via quantum phenomena such as radioactive decay. Nor does Many Worlds solve the issue"

"No not like Perseverance. Curiosity and Perseverance are powered on their journeys across the martian landscape by _nuclear power_which is to say radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTG's) energized (heated) by slow decay of a radioactive isotopetotal power output (at mission start): XXX watts. Obviously any large-scale chemical synthesis of rocket fuel (or whatever) on Mars is going to require power sources of far greater outputsuch as a nuclear reactor (a real reactor energized by nuclear fission)"

"Nope. James Webb is at the sun-earth L2 point located a considerable distance outward from earthwhereas Nasa's Dscovr (Deep Space Climate Observatory) observes earth from near the sun-earth L1 pointapproximately X million miles sunward from earth. Thus Dscovr from its station perpetually sees earth's daylit side (through a 12" 0.3m Cassegrain telescope) whereas Webb (if it could be turned toward the sun) would always see earth's night side. Dscovr's archive of earth photography can be accessed here:"

"Lungfish one might note are a kind of sarcopterygian fish (not shown separately on the graph) as indeed are we. We humans (along with all other _tetrapods_i.e. 4-legged land animals) are all varieties of sarcopterygian (a.k.a. lobe-finned) fish. Some XXX megayears ago as the fossil record reveals a sarcopterygian fish (species) ancestor of ours still swimming in the seathough perhaps by then breathing airinvented the basic body plan that we (and all other descendant tetrapods) still flourish today to wit: Jawed head atop a segmented backbone X limbs X fore & X aft hanging off that Each"

"@MonstaGunner @elonmusk All space launches to date except for Musk's SpaceX automatically get dumped into the sea. What SpaceX is doing here is developing a new giant rocket which won't get tossed into the sea after every use. You should be happy that it's happening"
