It's more that the rays from a point on an object converge to the smallest point when in focus? The rays from the object as a whole are spread out over an object-shaped are on the image plane, unless the object is (effectively) at in

I noticed that too; hopefully in the intervening 7 years these sorts of limitations are no longer, but I suspect scientific data simply expandss to fill the archive space available, and more ;(

is there a good metric for distance between two objects in different orbits? you can say something like "must not come within x km of each other for the next n years" but extending that to all orbiting object pairs seems complex.

ok, these are all good points, perhaps i could have been clearer. how about this, which i think is a true statement based on my understanding; drugs (mostly cannabis) are usually only decriminalised, rather than legalised, due to treaty obl

in fact, legalization of class A or B (schedule 1 and 2 in the USA) drugs would generally mean expulsion from the UN of that country for breach of the charter. that's why e.g. the Netherlands have only decriminalised certain drugs. t

not really. the a380 was designed to be able to use any airport which could service a 747 (so no widening or lengthening of runways etc) and airbus were betting ON the hub and spoke model remaining dominant, which didn't happen, and

a sonic boom is a phenomenon that occurs continuously when traveling over mach 1.0 so supersonic flight is usually limited to over water routes and forbidden over or near urban areas.

im guessing if you really need, and can afford, supersonic travel then either it'll be like flying business/first or you'll have top tier ff status with the airline, and queues etc are much less of, or even a non issue.

I wouldn't worry. You can still set up a computer pretending to offer a DoD login, in fact as many as you want/can afford on AWS, and you still won't go to prison. IANAL, but go ahead and knock yourself out! It'll be fun

And an enormous yard, at least if you really mean to grow over 50% of the food required for a family of four people, which will take about an acre (or 4000 m^2) i.e. more than four times the usual front lawn space in a suburban home.
