December 10, 20205 yr As I've stated, disclosure is simply not possible. I will say, however, that unlike what you know as the Galactic Empire, we delve into the spiritual, as opposed to the physical aspects of life in our (and also your) Universe.

I am sorry for not having been more clear. We both reside in the same "Universe". I in my existence and you in yours. They are both two versions of the same. We reside there simultaneously. In your Universe the actual entities are also sometimes referred to as actual occasions, because every actual entity has a temporal dimension, whereby the actual entity’s mental pole, which establishes which type of entity it is, determines which prehensions are positively received and are incorporated into the contrast that is the ultimate constitution of the actual entity. A “nexus” of actual entities, a line of temporal inheritance, is what we experience as an object. In my Universe the "objects" are simply the temporal dimensions.

December 10, 20205 yr On a less deep philosophical note - Scott Manley has released his commentary on the flight 🍻,. Top new term for nerds "Engine-rich exhaust" the green flame which can briefly be seen from one of the engines before the Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly.. In car or truck terms engine rich exhaust is when you'd see bits of valve or piston coming out of the exhaust pipe it is rich with engine parts and not burnt fuel Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot. The best "lite" MD-11 money can buy (well, it's not freeware!)

December 11, 20205 yr Author I think this thread has experienced RUD. And the double image is an artifact of a temporary disruption of communication between my Imageshack account and AVSIM. Sorry. I now think "Oh the Elonity" would have been better. Quod scripsi, scripsi. Martin, the number of perceived events / things in the universe is inversely proportionate to the perfection of the observer. On the seventh viewing of the movie Swing Time (Ginger Rogers, Fred Astaire, RKO 1936) this was revealed to me. Before that, I only grasped a dim awareness from playing the album Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd synchronized to The Wizard of Oz. See e.g. (Pseudo) Dionysius the Areopagate, Bonaventure and John of the Cross, C, G. Jung and Herni Bergson. Edited December 11, 20205 yr by Tim_Capps
December 11, 20205 yr Author 15 minutes ago, Adrian123 said: Sorry but that's a lean condition. HighBypass is correct in this particular context, and is explaining it through an analogy, although I'm certain you are technically correct. There are all sorts of sardonic expressions finding their way into our vocabulary. "Engine Rich Exhaust" is a way of saying the engine is burning up and becoming plasma bits out the nozzle, just as RUD is "Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly." And the Starship-watcher community is developing its own lingo. SN8 (which had the RUD at the end of a beautiful flight) is "Snate." Workers around the launch pad are "Kaarls" (sic).

But once I heard it, realised I wasn't. I've now taken the relavant drugs, so should be prepared for future "Galactic Foundation" revelations.
