sargebaldy Posted May 22, 2004 I'm sure the Earth will still be around. Who knows if it'll still be inhabitable though. 0 Share this post Link to post

DOOM Anomaly Posted May 22, 2004 /me sends. "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" They won't get it because I am sure there won't be any trees or natural forests by then. :D 0 Share this post Link to post

fraggle Posted May 22, 2004 Sadly the fact that they're getting people on the Internet to submit stuff means that the people in the year 52,000 are just going to be incredibly confused. 0 Share this post Link to post
GMan Posted May 22, 2004 According to corporate teen-punk band Busted, we're all going to be living under water by the year 3000. They've been there, apparently. Also, how did they come to choose 50,000 years into the future? Does it even matter? What's the meaning of life? 0 Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted May 22, 2004 They chose 50,000 years because that was an estimate of how long it had been since we just started scratching on cave walls. 0 Share this post Link to post

boris Posted May 22, 2004 And how are the people in the future supposed to read the information stored in the satellite? IIRC studies show that we're not be able to read our current media (CD, DVD etc) in a mere 20 years, let alone 50k years. 0 Share this post Link to post
Tyockell Posted May 22, 2004 I believe that this planet will be here in 50,000 years I mean were not gunna destroy it totaly but it will probably not be fit to live on or worse provide anything required for life forms to live. 0 Share this post Link to post

The Flange Peddler Posted May 23, 2004 This thing will probably get forgotten way before 50,000 years time. In a few hundred years time people will probably want to identify this unknown satellite at an orbit of 1,8000 km high that's slowly making it's way back down to Earth. 0 Share this post Link to post
Cyb Posted May 23, 2004 Wikipedia states: Symbolic instructions in several formats will show how to build a DVD reader, which might no longer exist 50,000 years from now. heh. why don't they just, I dunno, put a dvd player on the thing? 0 Share this post Link to post
