:Thanks for your contribution. You did forget to add the comic at the [List of all comics] and the redirect for the title was missing. I've done this right now.--[[User:Dgbrt|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt|talk]]) 10:18, 24 June 2013 (UTC) | :Thanks for your contribution.

I can't stop thinking that the last panel is not "noise" but a binary coded message/file. It seems just enough compressed/unsharp to make it possible to read out every pixel as a bit, and perhaps there is some kind of "datafile" with error correction? Anybody tought about that? --[[Special:Contributions/217.253.152.222|217.253.152.222]] 07:22, 24 June 2013 (UTC) | I can't stop thinking that the last panel is not "noise" but a binary coded message/file.

Why StarTrek? In my experience, in StarTrek the stars are lines instead of dots, therefore the look is different. -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 08:43, 24 June 2013 (UTC) | Why StarTrek?

It's probably quite unlikely to collide with a star like that, wouldn't it be much more likely to pass near enough to enter an orbit?--[[Special:Contributions/62.20.90.206|62.20.90.206]] 14:25, 24 June 2013 (UTC) | It's probably quite unlikely to collide with a star like that, wouldn't it be much more likely to pass near enough to enter an orbit?--[[Special:Contributions/62.20.90.206|62.20.90.206]] 14:25, 24 June 2013 (UTC) | ||

− | + | Oh, that SUPERMOON... It's just a gap filler for the press at science sections (even NASA did), but nobody would recognize when looking at the sky. The Moon is always "big" when it's close to the horizon, but this is just a human imagination. My 13% cents. --[[User:Dgbrt|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt|talk]]) 22:42, 25 June 2013 (UTC) | |
