How much does the Earth weigh?

Is the Earth gaining or losing weight over time?

If I am in geosynchronous orbit and I throw an object toward the Earth, will it hit?

I find it hard to believe that astronauts don't do this all the time. I think the temptation would be irresistable. It's like standing by a beautiful lake. Eventually, you're going to want to skip a rock into it. And astronauts must release things into orbit all the time. I can't imagine that none of the astronauts have done this. I would bet the object released would typically be a golfball.

There has to be a golfball or two in orbit. I would imagine an astronaut saying, "Well, that there golfball was one my father hit a hole-in-one with at the Maywood Country Club in Macon, Georgia in 1947. Pops kept it on his desk until the day he --sniffle-- 'til the day he --sob-- --sniffle-- ... I'm sorry, folks."

I would appreciate website suggestions for purchase preferably. ;) p.s. I'm a broke grad student, keep that in mind! nothing over $100?

ok... Im not sure if this has already been talked about, but did anyone see that thing on tv a while ago about how some scientists think we didnt really land on the moon?

Anyone know of a good free media player? I have realone player, but it recently crashed and renamed a bunch of my media files, switching names around. Actually, if anyone knows of a way to solve that, that would be great too. Thanks!
