no idea, but i'll guess it's True, just in case Daryl gets it wrong. hey, 50-50 chance.

*Has no idea what Kaezion is talking about* Good try anyway, but Leftyy got it, with Google I bet.

I looked at the url of the picture, and it had grb in it...

[Nuu™™]

Yeah, I realised that could be a problem.

I need more information from either of you, I can't really tell you why.

Hint: Think about the name.

[Kaezion]

i think Daryl might be right. doesn't Vega mean Masked? i'm drawing an inference from a Street Fighter game, but...

[Nuu™™]

Daryl is more right than you from guessing. Keep trying.

Hint:

[Kaezion]

true, because it's bright? or it's near?
I HAVE NO IDEA!

[Nuu™™]

Heh, if Kaezion can't get it, it means these sort of question is too hard. Sorry, that was an evil, trick question. It is neither true or false, because although Vega is visible to the naked eye, it is not a galaxy. Hehehe. *runs from hoarde of angry people*

Next question. (this is sort of maths)

A man looked up at the star Betelgeuse in the year 1462 B.C. What year was the light beamed into space?

[Kaezion]

look Nuu. this is just my two cents on your trivia. i think it's great and all, but you're asking for information that none of us could know without googling it. my advice to you would be to ask questions on more general scientific knowledge (that gamma-ray burst question was not a bad example), that requires us to apply some theory or whatever scientific knowledge to a picture or a problem that you create yourself (this removes the googling aspect; even if someone googles up the required knowledge, they'd have to be able to use that knowledge accordingly). this way, we could extrapolate on stuff we have a lot better chance of knowing instead of having to know an exact number. plus, it has better applicability in real life - chances are, you won't need to know the distance between Earth and Betelgeuse.

now, if any of us knew how many light-years away the star Betelgeuse was from Earth, we could just do 1462 + (distance in light years) and get the answer in years B.C. but again, no one knows how many light years away Betelgeuse is from us.

You are right... It had sort of ventured into the research area...

Okay, forget that question. The exact distance of a parsec in nanometers is...

Kidding...real question:

In LRV, what does the R stand for? In case that is too hard, here is a piccy:

Roving

And I just know that...

Correct.

Kaezion - 5
Leftyy - 4
Daryl C - 2
Denirik - 2
asyluman - 2
Shadow - 1

Your sig is a bit er, strange by the whelk.



On what date does the Sun enter the pictured Zodiac? No URL looking at this time, I changed the name to 'thingy'. Hah!

[Nuu™™]

Worth double points.
