Teleportation Inevitable, Says Professor Coypu!

The whole article is here - from the UK Telegraph - where dit-dit-dah-dah-dah-dit-dit, and then she slowly dropped her panties, and dit-dit-dah-dah!

This is actually not professor Farcas Coypu - but this guy looks like he ought to be Prof. Coypu. Anyway the article asserts that time travel and teleportation might be not only possible - but inevitable. So how about that happy crappy?

Here are some of his lab assistants!

And now for something else.

Seems black holes sometimes spit out seriously energetic beams of gas and particles - much like Presidential candidates. And in a corkscrew pattern, too! Who could ask for anything more? The full article is here at Scientific American - about which I will say more later.

And there is an article about the Finnish solar sail project here.

Those fine lines are not artists conceptions! They are charged wires that give the “sail” its texture so-to-speak. This’ll be a really cool effort when it gets off the ground.

And here’s some smut.

    This is some seriously cool shit!

    The Finnish solar sail should be really interesting. I seem to recall (vaguely) other solar sail experiments of various kinds that did not do well - for reasons having nothing to do with the theory of operation. Mechanical failure, tangling, etc (issues of design/execution rather than guiding principle).

    Maybe the Finnish will have more success. They are exceedingly careful and patient, IMHO…

    Damn - I eat this shit up!

    I saw a TV programme hosted by Dr. Michio K– uh, I mean Farcas Coypu once. Something about time. He’s an interesting and obviously highly intelligent fellow. And just goes to show that not everything that comes out of Berkeley is lowlife shit.
    Those solar sails are very interesting. Sure, the acceleration is mind-numbingly slow, but now having to tow around all of that mass from propellant and engines must be a real boon. Plus, that one in particular doesn’t look like a traditional sail, which are made up of a material so thin that a speck of micrometeoroid dust would tear through them faster than [insert name of notorious fat person] though an all-you-can-eat buffet.

    I need some kick-ass albino lab assistants.

    What’s a guy gotta do to get him some of those?

  5. porknbean Says:

    Coypu. Isn’t that a giant goldfish?

  6. Steamboat McGoo Says:

    PnB - I think so. But Coypu is also the name of my favorite fictitious scientist!

    Old Iron - just relax and wait. When the year 802701 or thereabouts comes around, you’ll have plenty.

    Would have replied sooner but the morlocks triggered a flashback. Damn that Coypu. I…

    Oops, boss here gottagobye…

    Flashback - or sweet memories of boyhood and fantasizing about Yvette Mimieux?

    Ya just couldn’t get much finer than her in the 60’s.

    Am I so transparent?

  10. lizardbrain Says:

    The real Prof Coypu is recognizable by his prominent teeth and his tendency to whinny when startled.

    He’s right up there at the top of the list of my favorite fictitious scientists, too.

  11. lizardbrain Says:

    Or is that fictional? Crap, now I gotta haul out the dictionary, and I’m in the middle of cooking supper.

  12. Steamboat McGoo Says:

    Either way, Coypu is great - when he’s not being a complete idiot - which is fairly often.
