 		Simple Question.

If you could drop anything into the middle of the Pacific ocean what would it be?

The object must be able to fit into a 1 mile diameter sphere.

No weight limits apply.

So what would it be?

 		Asteroid? o.O

Mine would probably be a flyback transformer....why?

It's electronic history, that's why.

 		Congress and one life raft.

or a piece of sodium with enough surface area to repeatedly launch itself (don't think a sphere would work)
