| Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web. While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself! Registration is free and instantaneous. Join our community today! |

Time flows like a river. Which is to say, downhill. We can tell this because everything is going downhill rapidly. It would seem prudent to be somewhere else when we reach the sea. "It is the old wound my king. It has never healed." | |

Frederick Townsend Ward and Chinese Gordon are also interesting characters, instrumental in defeating the Heavenly Kingdom of Great Peace with the Ever Victorious Army. |

'First man on the moon' was pretty much the only First you got in the space race. The Russians got first artificial satellite, first animal, first man, first woman, first two spacecraft launched simultaneously from the same pad, first space station... I think you got first people to stay in a spacecraft for over eight days, and first spacecraft capable of changing direction in orbit. |

It's an important one though. More important than some of the Russian accomplishments. |

But not all. I'd say getting a man into space, and him surviving is actually more difficult than getting them on the moon. Discuss in no less than 200 words. |

No. The moon landing opened up a range of possibilities, including off-world colonization. Mars is the next moon, and I don't think I'd be stretching the truth to say that Americans are the forerunners in a mars landing. |

None will be given. They're both important, and both landmarks. At the risk of being a 'you can't compare them' kind of person, i would have to say they are different landmarks. Though more people remember Armstrong than Gagarin. |
