Not yet.

But if we can travel through time in the future, then they could come back to our present. That means we can allready travel through time (if somebody comes)

Uranus is 4 times as big as the Earth. Becuase of Uranus's size, it produces enough gravity for moons to orbit it. Scentsts have bee n stufying Uranus for qute a while, and since the beginning of time have been wondering about Uranus. People have always wanted to go to Uranus, but it is nearly imposiible.

I got that from my science teacher to prepare for a test.

You patent what you make... you don't make it then you don't have a claim.

i.e. you cannot patent the mouse genome, however if your alter the genom to be 45% different to the original you may patent and name this new creation as your own. Any person who tries to copy it can be sued for infringement.

Not you actually have to be a person, aparently be 50% Human Infact to be considered under Law in the UK or US. I dunno about other countries.

As for what fallout said about America's flags in Iraq; yeah that pissed me off too. It's like they were the 'saviours' of the day and no one else. It was the entire coalition that was fighting there and protecting the citizens against terror attacks during, if anything the american troops were the major blunderers of that whole damn conflict.
Ho well...

the stars being named for a price is a con, there is an official astronomical body that names stars, and they don`t sell the names, that was just some con artist trying to get rich.
