I wonder if he'll be able to commercialize it.

I would think so. Someone would want a piece of that profit so funding might not be an issue.

But then there's always the balance of costs versus revenues and what people are willing to spend versus what you can afford to charge for something...
I can certainly see how this is very promising. I just think there are a lot of unknowns. __________________

Sure, but I think he is on to something great.

No lunar eclipse for us. Mind you, that's alright. By the time we'd be able to see it, it'll apparently be something like 4 to 5 in the morning. __________________

I wanted to see the eclipse, but it was too cloudy

Yukon fossils reveal oldest armoured organism Quote:
This is fascinating. 800 million year old fossils? Ground breaking, I can’t imagine what else they could find. Hilarious that a bear was following them around, I would be terrified. __________________

I am flabbergasted. If it wasn't visible to the naked eye, how did they even know to put it under a microscope? Or is that standard procedure for every rock they come across?
Because, if it is, talk about an exhaustive process. And can an organism still be called single-cell if it has formed a distinct "shell"? __________________

I would assume the shell is the fossilized version of it. I could be wrong it's just what I got out of it. But yes it looks like a totally analytical process.

This could make for some really creative thinking.

I think so too. I would love to be able to get outside this solar system.

Well, find a way to still be alive (and eligible) for space travel in 100 years and you might get your wish.
