  • How much does winter cost to Canada? Plows,fuel,labor,development exc.?

    For my own interest, I always wonder how much it costs Canada for big plows, sidewalk plow, salt, highway control, then labor to apply this.

    THEN there's the whole slowing down production and development. Farms, business slowdown, a large reduction in taxes.

    Is there a list of these budgets? Can't find one

    It's ridiculous! Then unemployment insurance is draining, just completely clusters Canada to pay off debt

  • Can a space elevator hold unlimited weight?

    So mass is held from the weight in space.? It's weightless in space but earths force pushes it outwards. Which alleviates a vast amount of weight, that is being held up from the sky.

    Can this be used as a tow motor is used? Just wind up a cable and pull one up? I don't think NASA is dumb, Im just curious about the weight capacity from space. Can you pull something up from space?

    I understandish, I just question the strength of force going outwards. It pushes rockets out and would alleviate right, but Does that mean it doesn't matter how heavy the elevator is? That's my basis question, th rest is detail.

  • dont we already have the technology for light speed travel?

    SO the science of space is limited. All we the resources in space costs millions of dollars in fuel alone. SO

    If we had unlimited access, could bring as much oxygen or hydrogen as possible. Wouldnt light speed simply be the amount we use?

    There using limited amounts of oxygen to move. So if you release larger amounts, you go faster. Meaning you release a lot and gradually you will be going really fast.

    Lets say Oxygen has a cap for max speed. WHICH has never been tested! BUT lets say theres a max speed. What if you release oxygen simulatneously with hydrogen. A jet i suppose that is a enormous boost. That should get you to light speed OR CLOSE.

    Im not trying to say DUH, im just saying, isnt it obvious the best way to accomplish high speeds is with this?

    Space is expensively limited, which i get. BUt i just felt a need for anothers opinion on why this is feebley the best way to gather speeds in space. SINCE the farthest we need to go FOR NOW, is mars. So, what do you think? make logical sense that you would move much faster than a thrust.

  • If we stopped the suns radiation, would the trapped radiation in earths layers be released back into space?

    I'm talking about stopping radiation that's hitting the magnetic field.

    Would magnetic field also " pull out " radiation? It pulls outwards so...

  • If a government was to buy a house , do they pay face value? Can they buy it for the base price of land?

    I'm just thinking of how it's possible for the government to buy every house and land, then rent it out on contracts. So life is easier in modern day.

    I'm a realist, the gov won't, but amuse me with an answer. If I borrow money from a bank for mortgage, you pay pay pay, but I'd I don't,mother claim ownerships and sell it after.

    Vicious cycle houses are.

    But my question is this. If the house costs 100k to build, ten twenty years ago, could the gov buy the house and land for nothing? Is there a way to cheaply do so?

  • When they do a mock up of mars when all water melts, why do they f it up?

    It's always coverd in an ocean of water of the temperature raised to melting temps. Well, didn't all scans and photos show it has creeks and streams, no ocean?

    Is ther more water than I thought? Enough to cover half it's surface? Are estimates all based on one soil samples.
