"To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.."
(Elbert Hubbard)


I studied Physics at the University of Vienna, but I'm interested in all natural sciences.

Since I don't believe in life after death I try to explore and learn as much as I can about this world.

comment Why is the death star in “Star Wars” shaped like a sphere?
Of all the shapes, a sphere has the smallest surface area for a given volume. Or to say it differently, for a given surface area, the shape that contains the largest volume is a sphere (which is why, e.g. soap bubbles or water drops are sphere shaped). - If the Galactic Empire is cost-conscious then a sphere will give them the most bang (i.e. working space) for the buck ;)

comment Does Iron Man 3 have any other Avengers in it?
@AnkitSharma - I dediced to keep it because it was a prominent rumour, and it provides context to the tidbit about Janet van Dyne being in early drafts of 'The Avengers'.

comment Why is Arrested Development listed (and played) out of order on Netflix?
Seems like Netflix is using the broadcast order: Charity Drive aired before Visiting Ours, and In God We Trust aired before My Mother, the Car.
