    Trump again raises idea of running for an unconstitutional third term

    The suggestion followed a stretch of days in which Trump referred to himself as a king and quoted a dictator in suggesting that he was immune from following laws


    President Donald Trump on Thursday again raised the prospect of serving for an unconstitutional third term, asking a crowd at a White House event whether he should run again and receiving audience chants of “Four more years!”

    The suggestion followed a stretch of days in which Trump referred to himself as a king and quoted a dictator in suggesting that he was immune from following laws — all while his administration has continued pushing the bounds of presidential power.

  • Space is defined as 100 km high.

    For the first 10 km or so, with current technology, it’s possible to imagine a very light structure in part composed of big impermeable fabric envelope filled with hydrogen that would have a net weight of about zero because of buoyancy in air.
    The difficult part is the next 90 kilometers high for which i believe we wouldn’t be able to build anything that could sustain its own weight.

    On the other hand, if cost and energy was not an issue, with current technology, we could build enormous number of big tanks into which we would pump all the atmosphere, so the height of space would come down to sea level.

    … of course we would then have also to put oceans and all bodies of water in tanks, otherwise they would boil out into space.
