It was a trivia question.....all were free to answer.
For $3.50, I would have happily answered.
I don't answer questions regarding the Pittsburgh Steelers 1974 NFL Draft for free, son.

Go down to your local Wadsworth convenient store, grab a 20 oz pop and a bag of chips, and as you are walking out the door tell the cashier:
"Consider yourself paid."
Come back here and tell us how that worked out for you. ?

happened to be looking towards Austin in Nov. 2018 when this one came out of the Leonids
Yeah baby! That was a good one to see! You never know what you're gonna see. If you're a captive audience at the gas pump...then why not take a look up?

We were lucky enough to see a major fireball at a night HS football game. The band was doing a halftime show with the lights turned off. We thought they had turned the lights back on. Nope, a sight I'll never forget. Lit the place up like daytime and had to be at least -12 magnitude. For the non astronomers out there brighter than the full moon.
A little aside- I read somewhere the small asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was probably as bright as the noon day sun right before it hit. Um, we don't want to see one of those.

I saw the perseid meteor showers on a moonlit January night when I was a kid.. it was awesome!!

That dino killing "small" asteroid likely had it's nose on the ground and it's tail 6 or more miles high into the stratosphere on impact.

You are the one that I was going to buy lunch for at Al's in Barberton. All you had to do was come up Van Buren from Canal Fulton. But, you never did.
So, clearly it is not about the money for you...if you can't even take a free lunch when its offered. Now its too late. I gave up my office there.

Basically, I'm having less and less faith in our new front office.
After Richardson had floundered for a year in Indy Grigson said that he would absolutely make the trade all over again. And when news of Berry (part of our 1-31 gang) agreeing to be our GM broke, the Eagles couldn't drive him to the airport fast enough. (I forget which media person reported that on 92 The Fan - Chris SomethingOrOther)
Beyond a doubt- this sort of stuff seriously concerns me.
Regarding Betelguese going supernova in our lifetime, it would be quite a show. Might be visible in the daytime? Get real- easily visible in the daytime, even in the summer with the sun close by. Some estimates say as bright as the full moon, but still a relative pinpoint of light. The one thing missing on my lifetime Astronomy resume. We're overdue for a supernova in our galaxy. The last, Tycho's star- was over 500 years ago. Two bright comets- Hyakutake and Hale-Bopp, and three total solar eclipses. Well, that and if we have another Leonid meteor shower like back in the 1800s. They were coming down so fast they couldn't be counted. Eyewitnesses said it looked like it was a major snowstorm coming out of the sky.

Well, it may have happed 20,000 years ago and we are about to see the results. I like astronomy as well. I still have a nice 80mm Meade refractor I still pull out in cooler weather. I had a 10" Schmidt Cassigrain, but donated that to the local astronomy club maybe 5 years ago. It has full computer assist. Just set it, GPS does the rest. Plug in M-81 and you are following as long as you want. It was just heavy to lug around. I still go to Clarence Jones observatory for lectures. It is part of UTC….Tennessee Chattanooga. The observatory has a 20.5" primary mirror. It was one of the test mirrors before the 200" Hale mirror was poured. You get some pretty impressive views despite light pollution. It was out in the country when built in the 30's. Efforts are under consideration to move another 20 miles out of town. It is a magnificent telescope.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
Just to put you all out of your collective misery.....the 1974 Steeler draft had 4 Hall of Famers come out of it. More than any other draft class by one team in history: Mike Webster, Jack Lambert, Lynn Swann, and...Mel Blount, I think....not sure about that last one.

As they say, the best telescope is the one you use. Totally understand not wanting to drag a 10" scope out just to use it. I have to say I got spoiled looking through the Clubs 12" & 16" reflectors at a semi dark site. Then go to a Star Party in the middle of nowhere out in Nebraska with the limiting magnitude below 6, and start looking through the really big scopes guys have- well. Jupiter was so bright looking through a guys 24" Obsession- it was enough to hurt your eyes. And you could actuality see color in the Triffid Nebula in another 36" reflector.
FWIW, I have an old 4" Meade Schmidt-Cassegrain that I can haul around when I'm travelling- the biggest 'scope that will fit in an overhead bin on a plane, (took it to Curacao for the 1998 solar eclipse) and an even older 6" f\10 reflector that has diffraction limited optics I built from scratch way back in the 60s.

& why should I reply to something that I already know the answer to?
FWIW, the other was John Stallworth- and a lot of non Steeler fans can raise a serious stink Swann and Stallworth aren't worthy because of mediocre career stats. They only got in because Myron Cope was on a mission to get every Steeler that played in the 70s in the HOF. I'm surprised Rocky Blier isn't in yet. 
I've said for years, Clay Matthews would have been in the HOF decades ago if he had played for the Steelers and not the Browns.

Because it is a trivia question and the point of a trivia question is to give the answer if you know it. You would make a poor Jeopardy contestant if the only questions you wanted to answer were those that you did NOT know the answer to.

I was thinking Stallworth, but then I thought....wait....2WRs? It didn't seem right.

Or, if the Browns had pulled out a couple of Super Bowl appearances when he was here, that would have helped a lot. I DO think that some of the voters just discount any player whose team never won (or went to) a Super Bowl.

When is Warp Drive going to be invented?
When is Warp Drive going to be invented?
They're going to have to hurry up- According to the Star Trek TNG movie "First Contact" Zefrem Coltraine invented warp drive in the late 21st century. (It's one of the better ST movies BTW)
We're already way behind in Trek chronology, Kahn and his genetically modified humans, and the first manned mission to Saturn already should have happened by now.
That said, I plunked down my $6 bucks a month for CBS all access and bought a Fire Stick for the TV to watch "Picard" and it hasn't disappointed. The special effects there make the original stuff back in the Shatner era look almost comical. FWIW, I own the complete collection of the original series on DVD. I've watched every one of them at least once, and several a couple dozen times each, like "Balance of Terror", "Return of the Arcons", and "Arena". Of course "The Devil in the Dark" Where you get to meet the Horta.

But we do have the flip flop communicators....which are passe by now. And talking computers. It would not surprise me on bit if the military has not already invented some kind of phaser gun...something that shoots something besides bullets. And others, no?

Supposedly the military already has satellite killing laser satellites...
Some of the stuff may never happen. I suppose breaking the light barrier may be nice, but according to Einstien- time would go backwards if you accomplished the feat. Consider the fastest we've ever traveled so far- the New Horizons spacecraft made it up to 10 miles\second at launch, but the speed of light- 186,000 miles\second is many orders of magnitude away. And even if you got up to that speed, it would still take you four years to get to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star. Using a transporter- "beam me up Scottie"? Well mass and energy are interchangeable. But ya know E=MC2? It only takes an itty bitty amount of mass to create one hell of a lot of energy. Like a couple pounds of lithium dihidride for a 50 megaton explosion. So converting a 100 kilogram (220 pound) human into energy you'd have the equivalent of 5,000 megatons worth of energy you'd have to contain- and figure out how to transport it across space and then be able to convert it back into mass without blowing your transporter into another dimension.

Well maybe not that long ago. It's only about 700+ light years away.
