  1.  @kellydalstok8900  Agree, scientists love stuff that is unknown. Every abstract of every paper talks about something like that. The god of the gaps is old hat though. Non Overlapping Majesteria is the new way to understand religion and science imho

  2. Yes. It went bang, that made it big... but we don't know how.

  3. It is very close to us, cosmically speaking

  4.  @duncanfeyd4056  Ok looking it up... Triangulum is also going to merge with the Milky Way. Dozens of small galaxies have already merged. So it looks like the answer may be, we already did a good job vacuuming the local area! There are about 50 galaxies in the local cluster, but it didn't say how many are retreating or advancing so I'm assuming they're not all going to merge with the MW but idk. That would change the story.

  5.  @duncanfeyd4056  cool :) I didn't know either I just wish that there was some way to keep our nice spiral after the mergers. They say we will be elliptical. I like the spiral, living towards the edge of a spiral is like living in the country near a moderate size university town with a walmart and good restaurants.

  6.  @joebutlersnr7017  Yeah. Science is kinda based on always being open to observation. Empiricism lads and ladies! But, data with no theory to test is like counting the rocks in a rock quarry, to quote my professor Dr. Lenny.

  7. maybe something limitless appears smooth and we just don't notice it

  9. I think Braneworld may be such a scenario... Lisa Randall...

  10.  @classicalphysic  Did he predict the temperature, or did he measure it?

  12.  @STOICZZZ  alien: "Please Take us to your Lithium"

  13.  @STOICZZZ  Aliens invited the hot springs, open to the public 6am to 10pm. The upstream set of three pools have the most lithium, they say... Like the ocean, hot spring minerals are tonic to carbon-based nerves

  14.  @kellydalstok8900  Our ancestors were very smart and knew a lot. The invented agriculture and domesticated animals.

  15. Lets not assume what scientists think about non-science subjects like religion. There are many religious scientists.

  17.  @PrestonMark765  Doing research in the afterlife makes it hard to submit papers for publication, so idk! Therefore I'll take an easier topic. Religion is also history, astronomy, geneology, zoology, diplomacy, natural science... unfortunately Christianity messed it up for everyone by going so fundamentalist. There are other religions based on evidence and experimentation. The faith-based "Because It says so Here" type of religion is only one style.

  18.  @norfolknchance.500  yeah there's probably some robo voice video saying that. beware of the robo voice

  19. cool. makes me think of Lenny Susskind's talks on entangled black holes connected by a wormhole

  20.  @stefanandersen7726  In the ER = EPR conjecture, all entangled black holes would have some sort of Einstein-Rosen Bridge connecting them. The bridges would not be visible from outside, and they would be non-traversable.

  21. actually it would be different! By density, there would be 8x less dark energy, 8x more matter, and ... 16x (?) more energy in the cmb photons. So that would result in a higher % known, if i'm not out to lunch.

  22. If it interacts weakly with itself, it might not be able to stick together to form solid objects.
