The science discoveries about our solar system and the universe in general is amazing. I was a young boy when sputnik was launched and now look at the knowledge we have obtained.
gpt
Yes. It is amazing. The amount of technology that we have and the speed in which we are obtaining it blows ones mind. I still don't understand how half of the stuff that we have now a days even works.
human
I know. It is mind blowing. Space exploration has come a long way since Galileo invented to telescope. 
gpt
Did you know that Astronomers detected building blocks in a planet 455 light years away. It's crazy that they can even see that far.
human
I wonder how? Wish I knew more about the science behind their discovery. There is also a planet where precipitation is glass shards which travel at  4500 mph. I'm thinking Mercury because of the locked orbit and temp difference between front and back
gpt
Yeah. That is an insane amount of heat. Sometimes I forget how hot the sun truly is. It's pretty amazing just how everything in our solar system is placed together and how it all works together. If things were just a little bit different we couldn't survive on Earth.
human
That's a scary though just how many things had to come together to have the world we now inhabit. When I was very young and first heard that the sun would quit working a billions of years I actually worried about it.
gpt
*body relaxes* So, have you ever heard of Everclear. It's an alcoholic beverage.
human
I have heard of it but never tried it. I was a party-er when years ago but seldom drink anymore. I guess it has some serious health risks associated with it. 
gpt
Yeah. apparently it is like 190 proof. I just don't understand why anyone would want to drink that. It seems like straight up poison. But I guess that's why they banned it from being close to college campuses because a lot of young people don't think about such things.
human
*leans forward* Yes. I learned a long time ago to drink in moderation. I know that there are people around where I live that make 'hooch' that is supposed to be almost pure. Having a drink with buddies can be fun but getting blotto usually leads to trouble in one form or another.
gpt
Yes. You definitely have to be responsible with that type of stuff. It can lead to a lot of dangerous situations, which is why people are wanting them to put such expansive warning labels on.
human
I know that there have been recent deaths on college campuses caused by over drinking. I guess many teens look to it as a right of passage.
gpt
Yeah. Peer pressure can make kids act differently sometimes. I know that all kids face those types of pressures. Hopefully when my kids are older they will have enough sense not to do such things.
human
Yes, hopefully so. None of mine have done more than experiment with booze, at least that's what they tell me. Kids don't lie do they?
gpt
No never. Haha. I just heard of the Burger King promotion where if you unfriend ten people you get a free whopper. I wish I would have known about this. Haha.
human
*body relaxes* I'm afraid I don't have ten people to unfriend. My kids demanded that I get on facebook but I am constantly getting messages that if I don't become more active my account will be inactivated. I feel so excluded. I don't feel the need to spew my life out into the nether world.
gpt
I hear ya. i have no idea the last time I posted anything. Just doesn't seem natural to me to just post stuff on the internet about myself. I guess we are just behind the times.
human
No, we are the ones with common sense. Did you know that Myspace turned down an offer to buy Facebook? Now is there even a Myspace around?
gpt
Not that I know of. I remember when I had a MySpace. Back when I was like 17 or 18. Seems like forever ago. I bet MySpace wishes they would have made that purchase since Facebook is now worth over 400 billion.
human
Yes and Zuckerburg is a billionaire. Why could't I come up with an idea for something like that.
gpt
Maybe you'll come up with another idea sometime. Well, I have to get going here. It was very nice chatting with you.
