Pilot scarves

Well, on the title screen for the SNES game, the scarf looks orange, and so does Falco's. Check it out. http://starfox-online.net/games/sf/

But I think that would have to do with the color pallet in the game.

But it does look a little pink in the artwork for the original game. Though with Falco's already being red, I guess they decided to make Fox's slightly less red so they wouldn't match.

Wait, how does that make blue less feminine?

Wait, you're right. I buggered up. Blue used to be feminie because of the virgin marry, and pink was blood or war or something. As for why and when it changed, the best I could find were some references to WW2, but no compelling theories I could find.

Tradition I'll guess, for the same reasons Showtime posted.

Read about that in an article somewhere. I'll have a look if I can dig the magazine up again.

In SF64, Slippy says the arwings can take temperatures up to 9000 degrees (Celsius or Fahrenheit? :lol:).

You forgot to mention Kelvin. (Or would that be way to cold?)

Now that I think of it, if the Lylat System  measures tempuratures in Kelvin, wouldn't that support the "tempurature control" theory?

Kelvin is the same as Celsius, but adding 273.15 to every temperature.  This is because Kelvin's lowest temperature of 0 is absolute zero, and there are no negative numbers because there can be nothing colder than that (despite what Leela said :P).  When you get into temperatures as great as 9000 degrees, the difference between Kelvin and Celsius is numerically less significant, so it only makes sense to measure extreme temperatures (such as those of stars) in Kelvin.

Well hold on a second. The temperature we are talking about with the "This baby can take temperatures up to 9000 degrees"  line refers to the temperature of Solar (extremely hot). Keep in mind that there have been questions brought up over what planets are actually part of the Lylat System (thanks to inconsistencies in the games). An example of that would be how "Solar" was supposedly "Macbeth" in the original SNES SF. (NOT SF 64)

Basically, some people say that Solar seems to be entirely made up of lava. There seems to be no solid surfaces except for the magma rocks randomly shooting out of the lava.  However, as far as anyone can tell in SF 64,  Solar seems to be the center of the Lylat System, and provides the natural sunlight for the planets. Also, do not forget that for some reason, the planets seem to revolve around Solar. So what we have is a lot of information that contradicts. There is no definitive answer as far as we can tell, and so, the temperature can be measured in multiple ways (sort of).
