The registration process might be more difficult and it may hinder spamming however, that might be just a desirable side-effect. The more information any site has on its viewers/members results in a very useful tool when marketing that information. There are other creative ways to generate mass expo...

A site counter I think would be useful information. My guess is that less than 3% of APOD viewers are clickin the diggit?

Can I expect to see more creative advertising on APOD?

^ = :lol: I thought entanglement was a reference to the end result of marriage. Questions: Gravity is theorized in General Relativity to be the result of space-time warping due to the presence of mass? -yet this doesn't combine easily with Quantum Mechanics. Why doesn't it combine well? Simply state...

Is there a user limit?

Bystander,
Likewise, I said time is only a measurement of duration.


Makc -please explain yourself. I see your point but we could dance all night to that tune. The truth is time becomes irrelevant. I believe our perception of time and space is fundamentally flawed.

Time ultimately is only a measurement of duration. Used by those who are bound by it. It's irrelevance can be witnessed as you enter the micro universe.

Could there be a universal template for structural design?

Interesting Cherie. Thanks for replying.
To answer my own question: I think it is because intellectually we are fearful, divided and weak.

"Now we are off topic" I can't believe YOU said that Harry

From macro to micro the similarities are far to remarkable to be brushed off like its just chance coincidence. yet we do....why do you think that is?

What about the "Branes" predicted in the M-Theory. Could this be the matter/force that ignorates us. (is that a word NoelC-lol)

Could there be some unknown property to empty space itself that reacts against matter on larger galactic/cosmic scales

Is that a retraction Harry


Nice quote NoelC.
However, "ignorance" is a very harsh word. Science is and will always be playing catch-up. It is not ignorance to not know -but it is ignorant to refuse to give merit to evidence or a good

Harry

There is absolutely no evidence for Dark Matter?

1. So there is no unexplained matter/force that is reacting with observable matter

2. Are you saying everything is observable or that there cannot be matter unkown to us

Will my questions not be addressed?

I don't believe it does and it has yet to be reproduced in simulations or explained using the accepted dynamics of the BB. If I remember correctly the BB, in our theoretical bubble of a single expanding all inclusive universe, we would expect a higher residule temp with vast areas of space at extrem...

Questions: Exactly what "observation(s)" support "space" as being further generated? What exactly are the implications if there were a vastly larger space? How does the M-Theory play into all of this and does this Theory support a larger volume of "space(s)" then we cur...

Must exist in a symbiotic relationship-hmmm really? I believe QM shows us less of a symbiotic anything as we approach it's smallest scales. You assume space co-exists with time because why? Can the measurement of time solve or dismiss this "hypothesis". There may be no relationship hence n...

The BB was neither big nor was there a bang according to the theory. So lets give it another name ="The creation of all observable mass -origin and cause unkown". The BB is speculation based on observations and workable calculations. Though it is clearly a step in the right direction. and ...

Well, there were some aliens on the moon almost 40 years ago

NoelC -"I believe in what I see. If I can't see it there'd better be a darned compelling reason to believe it's real." What an unusual concept. :cry: Has history not taught us time and time again that we are in a never ending cycle of realization? How empty one must feel if they feel they ...

"We made it official that we would no longer tolerate another country corrupting and taking advantage of ours. We would much rather corrupt ourselves without the additional paperwork. Thank you very much and call us if you need us!

iamlucky13, thank you for your follow up. I see your point and I may agree to some extent. However, most found the IAU to be out-of-bounds to begin with. The letter I posted explained more than the classifications error -I hope you can see the point of that :?: "I hope you're as entertaining wh...

Let me guess your a member of the IAU

Did you even read the post

It should have never changed in the 1st place and if the majority agrees then it should be undone. I hope your as entertaining when that happens

Excerpt: THIS is TRUE "This week I got another note from Dr. Stern. He is mightily bothered that the International Astronomical Union voted last August to adopt a definition of "planet" to exclude Pluto. He thinks it's a mistake, and so do I. Wednesday (March 13, the day in 1930 that ...

1st, I don't think this should go to the cafe -for obvious reasons. :shock: 2nd, the race to find the cause(s) is definitely on. Just remember to beware of any findings that are published by scientists whose work is subject to the U.S. government. :wink: I wonder if the changes in Earth's magnetic f...

Thanks for the input guys -I understand now -I cannot insert an image directly it has to be linked in from a website/URL. :wink: So I guess I just host the image somewhere and then URL the "address" ----wait thats not the same is it -what the hell is a URL -lol I once hosted an image of th...
