Starship Asterisk*

I don't think you generate gravitons, nor gravitational waves....just pushing air....making air waves....swish.... Drop a pebble in at one end of lake Superior...and try to detect that on the other side...an awful lot going on inbetween. Most, if any, ripples in spacetime go back down very quicky.....

It looks like a very good painting, to me.

Good idea Ron, but where are you going to be able to get a bottle that's big enough?

I'm too lazy to look it up now, but I'm sure Hawking said that the bigger a black hole is, the longer it takes for it to annihilate itself. For a black hole of a few million solar masses, we are certainly talking about trillions of years. And since the universe is only ~14 billion years, the chance...

You're quite welcome, Orin. I was happy to be able to post something older than i am.
