Hello there good friend. I love when the sun is shining outside. The sun is actually white but is perceived as yellow because of atmospheric scattering.
gpt
Hey there, good to meet you. That's interesting. I'm pretty interested in the Cosmos and the sun in itself is amazing. Without it we wouldn't have life on Earth.
human
*eyes widen* Yeah exactly, I think it is all very fascinating. I would hate to get struck by lightning bolt because it is five times hotter than the surface of the sun.
gpt
*calm eyes* It's kind of crazy to think that the sun is only 1 billionth the size of the biggest star in our galaxy. And just the amount of other stars in the universe.
human
Yeah it really puts things into perspective. The sun accounts for about 99.86% of the total mass of the solar system.
gpt
Yeah, but I think they are still trying to figure out what dark matter and dark energy are, so that could change. So much we don't know.
human
That's a really good point. If we could ever harness the energy of the sun we would be set.
gpt
I don't understand why solar energy isn't a bigger thing. It's what powered life on Earth for thousands of years prior to electricity.
human
I completely agree with you. It is very sustainable and I think it is the future. In 2011 Neptune completed its first full orbit around the sun since 1846.
gpt
If they setup a colony on Mars, would you go? The Sun doesn't keep it quite as warm as Earth.
human
I would go to visit but I definitely wouldn't want to live there. It sounds cold. If we had a colony on Mars what they have their own elections?
gpt
*calm eyes* I think we would most definitely make them report back to us for a while, but's inevitable that they will become Martians and want control of themselves.
human
Ha ha that would be very interesting. I wonder how elections would work on Mars? Psephology is the study of results and other statistics related to elections.
gpt
I wonder what the big issues what be on Mars. I bet they would have better turnout than the US.
human
*eyes widen* Yeah I bet they would too. Hard to believe the voter turnout for US presidential elections is so low.
gpt
*squints eyes* I know right? The people who don't vote but still complain drive me crazy. ( I mean no offense if you fall into that category lol)
human
No problem they annoyed me too. Interestingly though since 1900, the taller candidate has won the US presidential election 75% of the time.
gpt
*tilts head* Hmm. Trump definitely taller than Hillary. Was Obama taller than Romney and McCain?
human
That's a good question I'm not sure I will have to look that up. There's only one state to have a none of these candidates voting option for presidential elections and that state is Nevada.
gpt
I wonder how many people select that option. I bet a lot did in 2016
human
Yeah there's a good chance a lot of people selected that. In ancient Athens, officials were appointed by lottery because they believe elections will lead to an oligarchy. That would not fare so well in our current climate.
gpt
*shoulders droop* Well it looks like we are unfortunately headed towards an oligarchy so maybe it would have been for the best here. Nice chatting with you. Have a great rest of the day.
