A person who studies Epigraphy ; writing or deciphering ancient inscriptions..

A person who studies Ethnology ; examining different races, cultural traditions, characteristics, interactiontion..

A person who studies Ggeochemistry ; examining the chemical components of the Earth., chemical influences on the formation of rock..

A Rock image. A picture, drawing, glyph, used to convey an idea, letter, word, data. Graphical representation usually painted onto a rock surface..

Also petroglyph. A rock image. Same as pictograph but whereas pictographs are invariably painted onto the rock surface, petrographs are inscribed, etched into the rock surface..

Relating mainly to the Central America of Pre-Columbian times. The cultures existing then were as such, Olmec, epi-Olmec, Zapotec, Teotihuacan, Mayan, Mixtec, Huastec, Totonac, Toltec, Tarascan, Aztec. The preceding peoples were the Archaics and before them the paleoIndians..

Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543. A Polish cleric and Astronomer. Presented the theory that Earth and the other planets of our system revolve around the sun. In 1543 he completed his model of our system, the first ever model that had the sun at its center..Hence solar system

Zulu time is based on the Atomic time-scale. Usually read off the Gregorian division of time into hours and minutes using a twenty four hour counter. Also means Co-ordinated Universal Time (UTC)

(taken from Torricelli) A unit of measurement. of pressure; One Torr = 1.316 x 10 3 atmospheres, approx 133.32 Pascals

Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is a spiral galaxy. It contains approximately two hundred billion stars, plus lots of interstellar dust and gases. [ And other things :) ] The size of the Milky Way is 100,000 light years across, 3,000 light years deep. You can say its Forty kilo parsecs across.

Light travels at 186,000 miles per second, (one light second).
One light year = 5,865,696,000,000 miles. (approx 6 trillion miles)
One parsec = 3.3 light years. (parallax of one arc second)
sleepy, um, me too

The Runic alphabet, called the Futhark, was utilised by the Nordics. It used to consist of twenty four characters, however it was eventually simplified, a process in which only sixteen characters survived.

The word Rune means ; whisper, secret, mystery

This was a term used byEinstein. In order to divert his mathematical calculations in a particular direction (away from an undeniable conclusion) he inserted a factor (The cosmological constant) into his equation, thereby restoring a safe and steady order to the nature of his mathesis.

Eventually, unable to ignore the correct results any longer, he withdrew the cosmological constant from his sums. He forever after referred to the use of the constant as his/ the biggest blunder.

An instrument, weapon for use against a speices called Reetou. The Reetou are capable of shielding themselves from visibilty. The TER realigns their wavelengths to make them optically visible.

An infinitesimally small measurement of time, pertaining to crutial significance.

One nanonut can change the outcome of an entire event..

A light metal. Atomic symbol = K. Highly reactive element. Extreme energetic reaction to water. Superb electrical conductor..

A light metal. Atomic symbol = Na. Becomes explosive when submerged in water. Can be used to catalyse reactions in other elements.

A heavy metal. Atomic symbol = Nu. As it's name suggests, it does not react with water. It surrenders it's electrons generously, making it suitable as a source of energy. In its liquid state it's properties become more kinetic, allowing its electrons to be harnessed and focused through non metallic crystal in the form of high powered bursts of energy..

A wormhole is made up of two sections. A black hole and a white hole. Think of it as the black hole is the front of the wormhole, the beginning, and the white hole is the back of the wormhole, the end.

You can enter the black hole through an event horizon, the black horizon. You can exit the white hole through an event horizon, the white horizon.

You can not leave the black hole by back tracking out of the black horizon. Hence one way travel. Oh unless of course you can walk, run or fly faster than the speed of light.

Therefore having entered the black horizon front door, you must follow the path of the wormhole, exiting through it's back door, the white horizon.

Effectivly you entered the wormhole through the black hole and exited the same wormhole through the white hole.

The transmitting StarGate is a black hole with its black horizon and the recieving StarGate is the white hole with its white horizon..

Smile all day tomorrow!!

Lines of Operations. Essentially the battle ground plan in relation to position of operatives and opposition. The OPs lines also account for central Command and aims and objectives..

Rapid eye movements .(REMs) The dream stage of sleep..

Names after discoverer. 0.01 to 10 nanometer wavelength. Invasive photons. Also called X Rays.

Exceptionally high level of potassium in the blood

The kidneys become unable to function. This lack of functioning allows unfiltered fluids to build to toxic levels, this is turn causes a myriad of other complications..

The number of white blood cells in the blood..

The body's organic system responsible for immunity..

A build up of excess fluid in the lungs..

Plasma is separated from donor blood and intravenously drip fed into the patient one drip at a time..

Usually a clear plastic surround covering the patient's bed in a tent like fashion, arranged to provide need airtight conditions. Oxygen is the pumped into the tent delivering an oxygen enriched environment.

Used in conjunction with some medical treatments.

The top part of the nut cromprised of the cranial bones. The superior bit of the skull covering the brain. The brain box!!.

pulmonary, lung collapse. The lower part of the lungs fail to expand..
