d14zjo | when something has sugars and carbs is that the same thing? | Yogurt for example has like 1gram of carbs and 1 gram of sugars for every tablesoon.. Does that mean the 1 gram of sugar COUNTS as the 1 gram of carbs. or do they count seperately? so like 1 gram of carbs AND 1 gram of sugar. | explainlikeimfive | https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/d14zjo/eli5when_something_has_sugars_and_carbs_is_that/ | {

7506dy | With Mars' lesser gravity would we be able to build a space elevator there with current materials? | I am under the impression that the weight/strength issue is what hinders this project on earth; and that carbon nano-tubes(fibers?) seem to be the only promising solution that we hope for....I'm fond of the idea of industrial spider-silk myself...

2shiqd | why have airships not made a return now that engineering has improved and a safer airship could be made since the hindenburg disaster? | You could travel in COMFORT flying for once, and how COOL would the sky look full of airships?
Why has no company offered airship flight services since the Hindenburg disaster? I am sure the public realizes there has been major advancements since those days that would ensure such an accident would not occur again.
