  • graphics cards for rendering?

    I know this is probably not the best place to ask this, but i was looking for a graphics card to render small undetailed animations, and my cheap GeForce 8400gs has a heart attack when i try to use it for rendering

    so I was looking to replace it for with something in the $80-$150 range, I have been looking at the 'EVGA GeForce GT 740 4GB GDDR5' and i was wondering what you guys think about it, or if there is something else I should be looking at that is better for rendering for a similar price (FYI I dont give a **** about gaming)

    here is a link on amazon of the one i am considering:

  • question about voyager space probe?

    I keep hearing that voyager is about to leave our solar system, and I was on eyes on the solar system earlier today and I saw that there was a TNO that goes out at least 4 times further than voyager is now so does that mean that we have objects orbiting the sun that exit the solar system, because I thought that the solar system ended where the solar wind hits interstellar wind and that the gravity of the sun wasn't strong enough to influence objects that far out and keep them in orbit, and how far out is this ort cloud is it out of the solar system too

  • how is helium an atom if it is made from hydrogen?

    I read that the suns energy comes from the conversion of hydrogen into helium and that it takes multiple hydrogen atoms to make a helium atom, but if I remember correctly when more than one atom join together it makes a molecule not another atom, so why is helium an atom what am I missing here? or is the article I read BS?

  • question about air pressure on spacecraft?

    Nasa has mostly used pure oxygen in space so that you could have lower air pressure,

    apollo and gemini all had pure oxygen at approximately 5 psi and skylab had about 72% pure oxygen to prevent oxygen poisoning (minor fatigue if breathed for an extended period of time), the reason apollo 1 went up in flames is because it was pure oxygen at 17 psi, pure oxygen at 5 psi wont accelerate a fire like that it will actually make it harder to burn, I think that the skylab oxygen made the most sense, you don't get oxygen sickness because it is not completely pure and you can use far less air making the air locks easier and the oxygen systems cheaper,

    but the russians/soviets always used air just like on earth with the same ratios and psi did they know something we didn't or was it just to hard to get and maintain pure oxygen

    my question is why did the iss adopt the russians air systems
