Starship Asterisk*

Most likely? The original analysis from 50 years ago was wrong. Cosmology has advanced tremendously since then, when there was little observational evidence for the Big Bang, and the theory itself was at its most basic. Evidently ! But the math hasn't, the prediction stated that neutrinos,for what ...

Quote From the article : Narlikar found that in a universe that is expanding after a big bang event, neutrinos would turn up at a detector before they were emitted. "Only future-going neutrinos were possible in the steady state cosmology while the ever-expanding big bang models gave neutrinos t...

The frozen flesh and blood at the center of the ice man's absolute zero cold heart. Discussion officially plunged into the realm of fantasy. A Temperature Frequency of Energy/Matter ? Here is an interesting article : http://www.astronomycafe.net/cosm/dimens.html Why would you think, the 95% of the ...

I'm a big fan of frequencies, you may not understand that either. let me explain. Everything you see in the universe has a frequency. You must understand the word, just put it into practice. light has a frequency, Time has A frequency, Gravity has a frequency, Dimensions have a frequency, etc etc e...

Could your Dark Matter exist in another dimension, (but as everything was created in the big bang) It must still interact gravitationally ? I don't really know what that means. I don't know that a string theorist would know what it means. Personally, I think string theory is, for the most part, non...

Hi Does not string theory predict other dimensions ? Quote : An intriguing feature of string theory is that it predicts extra dimensions. In classical string theory the number of dimensions is not fixed by any consistency criterion. However in order to make a consistent quantum theory, string theory...

Hi all. What do you suppose we have to do, to actually see a real picture of Kepler-22b ? From What they have now, will be possible to tell if there is, any form of life on it ? Could there be a closer second earth ? Is there anything more to gain other than the knowledge that there is life out ther...

Quote: From The BBC/news Astronomers have confirmed the existence of an Earth-like planet in the "habitable zone" around a star not unlike our own. The planet, Kepler 22-b, lies about 600 light-years away and is about 2.4 times the size of Earth, and has a temperature of about 22C. It is t...

But I have never heard that everything revolves around a central point in the universe. I have never heard that there is any sort of general orbital motion of galaxies, so that they all orbit around a central point. Oh, What do you make of this then Ann ? Quote : Physicists and astronomers have lon...

Thanks Chris, The above was in response to information left out of one of your answers. Our Cluster of galaxies is included in this equation. Is there a little paradox in all this ? If we cant see what ever is the cause for this, because light has not had time to reach us, then how do we account for...

The Code wrote:According to the Standard Model The "Dark Flow" should not be there. And you need to add another Universe to understand what is causing it... And does that mean Another Universe out side ours ? Isn't that meaningless ? I get the feeling The Standard Model's "Time"...

Unless of course If your name happens to be Roger Huh ? Isn't the standard model a theory only ? A theory that is under threat by the said "Dark Flow" . Dark flow isn't threatening to substantially alter existing cosmological theory. And what does "theory only" mean? Everything ...

ErnieM wrote:It is inconceivable to imagine a "universe" before the big bang that only dark matter existed clumping together by the force of "gravity". There is no reason to think that there was dark matter present before the Big Bang. For that matter, there is no reason to thin...

Scientists' predictions about the mysterious dark matter purported to make up most of the mass of the Universe may have to be revised. Research on dwarf galaxies suggests they cannot form in the way they do if dark matter exists in the form that the most common model requires it to. That may mean t...

They aren't saying their neutrinos went faster than c. Quote : Puzzling results from Cern, home of the LHC, have confounded physicists - because it appears subatomic particles have exceeded the speed of light. Quote : Caught speeding? The speed of light is the Universe's ultimate speed limit, and m...

1: What is the furthest our sun can be seen with the naked eye ? (light years)

2: Next year, sun spot activity will peek, What is the root cause for this ? ( All the reasons why )

3: Does the magnetic pole shift, have anything to do with us crossing the galactic plane next year ?

Thanks

The answer will be spherical or cylindrical or Infinitesimal. We may even need to invent some new words to describe it. I posted a documentary on here about this very question. Cant remember where, something On the lines of, is science dangerous ? Well I seem to remember this very question getting t...

A : Are not black Holes stuck in a time frame that move differently to ours, yet its effect over reaches all of Time . Can Those things been devoured, be considered leaping backwards ? After all they Maybe break all the known laws. The "known laws" are called that for a reason. Unless you...

What do you mean by time travel? The movie definition? Or relativistic and quantum effects? what would be the difference? The "movie definition" suggests something physically traveling backwards in time, carrying information. No particle does that, virtual or otherwise. But in quantum mec...

Not helium-4. Oh ? Why Is That ? A galaxy, A particle, A Planet, A Solar System, All Spinning. Something is the cause . But Are they all the same ? Now, an interesting question might be whether the total angular momentum of the Universe is zero or not, but it's hard to imagine how any individual co...

Why is everything in the universe spinning ?

When i say everything. I mean everything. Every single Dot of space time. Every single particle, The whole Shebang. ?

Is there some inner force ?

One must also first get inside the box and be very familiar with it in order to think outside of it. ;) I'm so glad this made it,s way back. Well it would, wouldn't it ? Cos ,,,, well, we all really want to know don't we. I am really pleased to hear that geckzilla finds my posts sort of "never...

What galaxy are you referring to that is 20 times the size of our galaxy ? Things are a little more complex than that mate. We are all the big bangs children remember. Only some kids are bigger than others ! Only, I'd be happy to brush off 100 million solar mass Black Hole. But when I discovered th...

I will answer most of your questions. There are more novas than supernovas because all mature galaxies have many more average size stars than super-massive stars that generate supernovas Thanks doug. "But 8-)" Since I am looking at the big picture, I wounder how you come to view a "m...
