I'm in the middle of Chasm City right now. Just put it down for one of the first times today. Really loving it. The world-building is fantastic. It's a bit slow sometimes, but if you are looking for an amazingly imaginative but well-thought-out speculative sci-fi world, I highly highly recommend it.
Full disclosure: I'm only about a third of the way through it.
Edit: And yes, Chasm City deals with generation ships. A really neat concept, actually.

The Honor Harrington series had colonists in cryosuspension that arrived to find later generations with faster ships had already colonized their destinations, who often declared them immigrants to their own worlds. The title character's ancestors had created a trust fund to send more ships as propulsion improved, so they arrived to find a colony established by their own descendants.
The crazy part is, if you were able to get a telescope far enough away from the world and look back at earth, you'd see what the world looked like back then. Telescope would have to move faster than light though
well you can see the planet if the planet is foggy, the problem is when space gets too foggy. With global warming the way it is it's becoming much more of a problem in our solar system.
They have to have them because of the space matter density. The matter density in space is such a way that it has to be filtered and exhausted in NASA approved catalytic conversions. There are some plans to have ones without exhaust, but that kind of stuff is years away, and strictly drawing board stuff.

If you were on a planet 100 light years away and you had a telescope facing earth. you would see earth as it was 100 years ago. Meaning if you had a ship that would move in light speed with a megascope on it, you could fly away from earth and turn around and watch your self being born...
Assuming you were born in a field.

In reality if you were travelling at light speed away from the earth and looking back, the earth would appear frozen.
Or we could gravitational-lens the crap out of the lights going out from the Earth and bend the light back our way. Near impossible, but 10-100 of possibility is still a possibility.

It could have also been the first camera, completed and used for a period. In the intervening time, there could have been other cameras developed, one which took this picture.
There's little about a camera that would make a large camera a good first design. From the amount of chemicals needed to the difficulty of protecting the film for light. If this is the first camera they were doing it the hard way.

The used three mirrors to reflect the image back at itself. So that the first cameraman took a selfie of himself working on the first camera haha people never change

I read that you aren't supposed to shake a polaroid because it leads to over sexualization of the polaroid. This can lead to severe body image issues for photos and can even cause the polaroids to develop serious printing issues.

Who invented camera? Johann Zahn designed the first camera in 1685. But the first photograph was clicked by Joseph Nicephore Niepce in the year 1814. It was thousands of years back that an Iraqi scientist Ibn- al- Haytham made a mention of this kind of a device in his book, Book of Optics in 1021.
Clearly, you need to work on your scientific reasoning skills. Time to go back to the lab, recharge with magnets and develop a hypothesis. Then you can come back to us for peer review.
Looks to me like they're looking at a mirror. But the more logical explanation was that they set the timer on the camera to take a picture, and then moved the camera just in time so that when it released the shutter, it took a picture of itself.
The more important question here, the one I surprised hasn't been asked already; How did these men hang those letters in the air? They appear to be connected to neither each other nor any sort of apparatus, and yet it is a strong enough support for this massive--though strangely ironic-- sign over their very valuable invention.

I hope you're proud, insulting the incredible painter that painted this.
All these other people got it wrong, long ago Jesus Crist (later Christ) was going through a tumblr phase but tumblr wasn't invented so he moved all of tumblr back in time so he could use it. Then the dinosaurs took photos of space soap that later turned into plants that fueled the russian revolution thus proving Einstein correct.
Einstein created the theory on the photoelectric effect, stating that when light bounces on an object, the object loses electrons. The camera was receiving photons in order to take the picture, but because it was a CAMERA (not an object) it reflected the photons instead. We see the photons with our own eyes, and thus, someone was able to take a picture of this happening.

nah, the first cameras weren't anywhere near that big. They were pretty big to what we have now (basically little wooden boxes about the size of a minifridge) but they weren't taller than a person
I don't know what the camera in the first image was used for
Essentially, there was a man with photographic memory who was watching the construction. A few museum workers kidnapped him one night, and sliced out the part of the brain of his that was keeping the photograph, jammed a USB cord into it, and extracted the photo.
Well, the answer is actually quite simple. We all know that light exists because light atoms bounce off of things. So, they had this camera in the position you see in the photo, and then quickly moved the camera so it pointed toward its prior position before the aroma of light had gotten there. Then, as the atoms entered the camera, the shutter was briefly opened, thus capturing the photo. You might be wondering how, if the camera was not complete, was it taking a photo? Notice that the picture is not in color. That's because the color feature wasn't added until after the picture was taken.

This particular camera has a take picture and a really take picture button. When they pushed the take picture button the camera has to warm up. What's ingenious about what they did was they pointed the camera at themselves posing and pushed the take picture camera. Then they pushed the really take picture button. Thus this amazing photo was taken.
It's the world's first camera... BIG ENOUGH TO PHOTOGRAPH OP's MOM!

Have you not seen World of Tomorrow? The past is obviously viewed thru a portal viewing in real time across time frames rather than a physical document of History
I know photography moves really fast these days, with new cell phones every couple of months. Back then, there was plenty of time to finish the camera and take the picture.

They have to have them because of the space matter density. The matter density in space is such a way that it has to be filtered and exhausted in NASA approved catalytic conversions. There are some plans to have ones without exhaust, but that kind of stuff is years away, and strictly drawing board stuff.

If you were on a planet 100 light years away and you had a telescope facing earth. you would see earth as it was 100 years ago. Meaning if you had a ship that would move in light speed with a megascope on it, you could fly away from earth and turn around and watch your self being born...

I read that you aren't supposed to shake a polaroid because it leads to over sexualization of the polaroid. This can lead to severe body image issues for photos and can even cause the polaroids to develop serious printing issues.

Who invented camera? Johann Zahn designed the first camera in 1685. But the first photograph was clicked by Joseph Nicephore Niepce in the year 1814. It was thousands of years back that an Iraqi scientist Ibn- al- Haytham made a mention of this kind of a device in his book, Book of Optics in 1021.

Looks to me like they're looking at a mirror. But the more logical explanation was that they set the timer on the camera to take a picture, and then moved the camera just in time so that when it released the shutter, it took a picture of itself.

All these other people got it wrong, long ago Jesus Crist (later Christ) was going through a tumblr phase but tumblr wasn't invented so he moved all of tumblr back in time so he could use it. Then the dinosaurs took photos of space soap that later turned into plants that fueled the russian revolution thus proving Einstein correct.
CANTFINDCAPSLOCK ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 23:57:18 on March 26, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Einstein created the theory on the photoelectric effect, stating that when light bounces on an object, the object loses electrons. The camera was receiving photons in order to take the picture, but because it was a CAMERA (not an object) it reflected the photons instead. We see the photons with our own eyes, and thus, someone was able to take a picture of this happening.

Well, the answer is actually quite simple. We all know that light exists because light atoms bounce off of things. So, they had this camera in the position you see in the photo, and then quickly moved the camera so it pointed toward its prior position before the aroma of light had gotten there. Then, as the atoms entered the camera, the shutter was briefly opened, thus capturing the photo. You might be wondering how, if the camera was not complete, was it taking a photo? Notice that the picture is not in color. That's because the color feature wasn't added until after the picture was taken.

This particular camera has a take picture and a really take picture button. When they pushed the take picture button the camera has to warm up. What's ingenious about what they did was they pointed the camera at themselves posing and pushed the take picture camera. Then they pushed the really take picture button. Thus this amazing photo was taken.
