  1. I hope it hasn't been too long since last was posted here, but I have to update that the project is still on-going. Iaredios has been unable to do a lot of work on the project himself, however I have put in much work, I have nearly Finalyzed Noxton, and am working actively on more than ten other conlangs for the different peoples. Here's the link to Noxton: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1w95nZyq2veG4H31bNp4yL_dp3pQw9LnYe78G0cy2m0w

     

    And I conclude this on-going activity with a meme.

  2. Maybe there is still a small sliver of hope.

     

    EDIT: Apologizes about the ambiguity of this post, I was a bit rushed when I intially posted it, lemme add to it.

     

    What I mean to say by this is that in the light of my upcoming surgery in a few hours of posting this, in about five hours that is, though I had heard a couple days prior on twitter about this news, it is revigorating to me. Though WoS was not may favorite film, the whole motif of making it through a dark part in time or in one's time of being and overcoming evil for the greater good resonates really well for me in my situation, as BIONICLE in it's intial run seemingly nearly always did for me. I can only hope for new stories to arrise in the future that hit the same cord in me, but for now looking back on the good old times in a seemingly brighter light is just fine.

  3. Okay, so I just hopped into Universe Sandbox and ran some quick calculations, as well as took some pictures.... The calculated estimate for the initial canon size of SM  which I took from this topic, estimates the size of Spherus Magna to be about 975,354.613 miles.... I apologize for the big pictures.

    At which point, the planet by almost all accounts would become, though this makes no sense, a silicate star if you will! I don't even want to know the crushing pressures for THAT to happen! ALSO, at this size, the "Planet" is 26.4 TIMES THE MASS OF THE SUN. This is what being Arbitrary does people....

     

    As well, I calculated some other estimates for the size of Spherus Magna, one 10 times the size of Jupiter, and the other 100 times the size, as also seen above.

    Also, here is the size comparisons for the more reasonable sizes of Spheres Magna and compared to Jupiter, Neptune and Earth.

    As well, a size comparison of the GSR. The smallest one being the most reasonable one.

  4. We've run into this problem before, to my knowledge the scale of both the GSR and Spherus Magna had been scaled down, first I think the projected size of Spherus Magna was about 10 or maybe even 100 times larger than Jupiter, I don't exactly recall which, but it was gargantuanly absurdly large for ANY terrestrial (meaning rocky) planet, even when compared to more so recent Exoplanet discoveries, I believe one of the largest ones found was around the size of Jupiter, but to my understanding, just getting to that diameter is pretty much the physical scientific limit for rocky worlds to get to, gas planets are of course different, but that's regardless.

     

    Than I believe both the GSR and Spherus Magna were scaled down, Spherus Magna down to about the size of Jupiter, and the GSR to about the size of Pluto, which is about the same area of land as the whole of Russia.

     

    Now, on a slightly different note, within a project I am a part of, which is a continuation project, I and the main head of the project through our own independant work came to about the same more rational conclusions for the scale of both the GSR and Spherus Magna, my measurement for Spherus Magna came out to be 1.42 or so Earth Masses, which makes it a bit larger than the earth as well as a bit wider, and the GSR around the size of the Canadian territory of Nunavut. It makes it that the GSR is reasonably sized, and Spherus Magna too is reasonably sized. The whole notion of the GSR not being viewable from space, and that Spherus Magna is ten or more times the size of Jupiter is utterly absurd and scientifically and physically impossible, it's just too big.

  5. It says that they're connecting more with the Fans, is it possible that in the future this could bring new themes thought up by say the adult fans? Or that said fans in general could have more input on what LEGO puts out? As the way it looks now, I personally think that is potentially a wise financial move.
