why do you feel the need to put a posters name when replying? its obvious you are replying to me
there is even a reply and post button, you must have hit it to reply.

i do not live in the USA so i do not know your race issues, but to me you are anti white,
you are probably a bored white rich man who uses idiotic posts to get some sort of reaction on here, i read the racist sexist rubbish you post on debates etc, never reply because people like you deserve to be ignored, what a sad excuse of a life you must have.
i really enjoy the science forum, again i dont post in here, i suppose i am not educated enough to understand most of it, but here you go again posting vile racist abuse.


perhaps you should move to the clan forums?

Quantum physics researcher Anton Zeilinger, of the University of Vienna, had hoped for the European Space Agency to develop its own satellite but found the organization too slow. “Its mechanisms are so slow that no ...[text shortened]... Scale collaboration, with a ground station for the Chinese satellite being built in Vienna.

You'd have thought it would be possible to do within Europe. This isn't something that needs anything other than a low earth orbit satellite, and that's a real niche that's being seriously looked at - I went to a talk at the Royal Aeronautical Society about small satellites and there are a lot of applications.

You know you can't digest cellulose, right🙂
Any signal that disrups the quantum link is detectable and it shuts down so no information is compromised.
