Ok, i dont know how "group exploreing" works because I have explored alot of stars with satalites. So I have like 1 or 2 questions.

1:When i send satalites out satalites I send out a bunch at a time. I was wondering in "Reports" under "known planets" do the planets your satalites show up in order you sent the satalites out, or in order the satilites reached the system, by some other means of numerical order or some other order (What determines the "known planets" order in "reports")? And how does the

2: How does "group exploreing" work? It asks for a number of systems to be explored, but I dont know what does that mean? If I take the furthest down cords and the furthest east cords that would mean I have explored 22692 systems (YtimesXsquared see below) but I know I have not explored all the planets in that region, thats just the farthest out my satalites have gone. I would like to scann all systems to that point before going further into the galexy but I duno if "group scanning" would be much use. I cant target a specific cords to scann? (I dont know how atleast)


If I were to start at lest say at cords "1:1:" and the farthest I have sent satalites down (verticol) is 122 systems (122 boxes down). The farthest I have sent satalites east (horozontal) is 186. Then I sent a satalite in the south western most corner to the nearest system of those cords combined (186(horozontal): 122(Verticol)) I forgot how to graph in school but I believe X (horozontal) cords come before the Y (Verticol) Cords?

(For info I believe the Z is the 3rd demension in graphing, duno what letter they give for time any 1 know?)

t is time
v is hyperspace
w is hypertime

all are at 90 gegree angles or perpendicular
the shortest path between to lines isn't always a line thats just the easy way that lazy light takes.

Group exploration: When you have a lot of resources to might want to explore more then 1 system . In this case you use group exploration. From your capital system satellites are sent to closest systems (by distance). A satellite explores entire system with all planets in it. You just need to enter the number of systems you want to explore, no coordinates necessary.

In the beginning you might want to send your satellites to a specific coordinates. In this case you just enter those coordinates.

so you like my 6 dementional geomotry try 9-d math. its fun. Hyper it up. Now for my essay on hyper complex numbers...
'''''''''' essay ommided do to boring ness and the fact that it will make you heads fall off '''''''''''''''''''''
thanks for sleeping through my class if any one needs help with asto phisics or multi dementional geomoty i'm to person to ask.

pop quiz whats srt(-1)?

what is less then one biger then -1 and not inbetween -1 or 1 and isn't 0?
whats both positive and negitive and nether positive or negitive?

What is less than one bigger than -1 and not in between -1 or 1 and isn't 0? = .5i It's an imaginary that's less than one bigger than -1 and is not between -1 or 1 and is definitely not 0.

What's both positive and negative and neither positive or negative? = infinity

Any more questions?

aculy i was thinking of srt(-1) and 0 but your answers are right also. a negitive number is greater then infinity so infinity = 0 if you do some divition by 0 and addittion of infinity.

Hey, mathematicians!
You can not compare imaginary numbers

Lol Green. I had no idea what I was saying . I'm 16, still in high school (I'm a Senior next year!!!.. bow down and worship me and maybe I won't crush you . Anyways, I'm about to take Pre-Calc over the summer, and then AP Calc next year in school. Maybe then I'll have some idea what I'm doing :?

.... cut..



Oooops... I assumed You know about imaginary numbers - IIRC we`v learned about it at 16 (before high school) - but our programs may difer because we are in the different countries

In any case You will learn about +-sqrt(-1) in college or university.

P.S. Brrrrr, I hate integrals and differentials - but Maverick adore them

I am doing A Level maths (after 16).anyway... I have a question. Could Infinity realy exist? If it does, will it go on forever (like its supposed to do).

Also is it possible to have somthing greater than infinity?

Here is an example.

It take 1/2 minute to travel 1km, to travel the next 1km it takes 1/4 min, then 1/8 to travel the next...1/16,1/32 and so on doubling your speed each time.

After a whole min has passed you must have traveled more than an infinite distance.

So it must be possible for there to be greater than infinity, this would mean it does not go on forever.

Anyway, this post seems to be going on for ever so I will stop now.

infinity isn't a number its a trerm for on and on ( you get the point ) with out end. it can't be a number since what would infinity + 1 be (some say negitive infinity others say infinity ) if theres infinty integers and infinity real numbers between each number that makes there 2 * infinty * infinity numbers. this is insame nothing is infinty. its just a number so large its beyong our gasp. phisics say the univers isn't infinite its just so large that it will take like a googolplex years (the univers is only 25 billion years ) just to right it. like quantom phisics say there is a number so smal ( planks constints ) that if you divide it in to parts it loses all meaning so you get eather nothing or what you started with. thats x/2 = x or 0 for x not equal to zero. if theres a number so small that its indestible from zero there is a number that any thing beger them it loses all meaning. (its how many plank volium are in the univers) so ina sense infinty isn't a number it just means keeps on going and you don't want to wast your life finding the end of a circle. ( a circle has no ends so you will never find one ) i can prove 1 = 0 more easly then to prove infinity is a number ( no one has proved infinty is a number real or non real yet i can prove in many diferent ways that 1 = 0 )

I'm taking a summer course in which I'm learning about integration and derivation.. ITS AWESOME.. The stuffs prety easy.. so far

i'm 14 so i'm still in geomotry. i do trig at home and tryed to learn calculas but i didn't get interals. i like complex numbers and 4th dementinal geomotry thought.
