Awesome! I’ve read the series twice and thought it was a made up word like Orogene. I imagined it as just a circle. This makes so much more sense, since the Orogenes generally did not freeze themselves to death. Assumed they were just immune to the power of their own torus

That's exactly why pulsars spin so fast

It's the geometric/topological term for a donut or tube shape.

I thought that the 5g standard includes new frequencies below the 750/700 mhz allocations of 4g (not just the high ghz freqs)?

All of it Nobody has seen it. They don't have proof that it is really there.

Parachutes are hard. Which is a bit funny since they are so flexible. They are hard because they are so flexible and can be greatly impacted by hard to analyze forces.

I want to see them succeed too because more access to space is better for humanity. They hold the keys to their own success though and sadly have been struggling more than anyone thought they would.

Let’s hope he doesn’t get flagged for plagiarism if he has to write the same article over and over :-/

>This is a little reminiscent of the NASA scientists who were convinced that microgravity would interfere with Sally Ride's menstrual cycle.
I'd be more worried about how low gravity affects bone density or the effects of cosmic radiation outside of earth's atmosphere in the development of the fetus. There are valid ethical concerns that don't boil down to oppressing women in some way.

We have that. It’s about 52.000 parsecs (pc). Or 52 kiloParsec (kpc).

Yes, "history" only generally refers to that period. I don't know where you got the idea that knowledge of the past is divided into "history" and "mystical fun to note" - that's just outright nonsense. Indeed, everything prior to written records is generally called "pre-history".
