I asked my physics teacher at A levels and he was right confused, and trying to come up with explanation but couldn't. So he rounded it off by saying that its outside the scope of my A level syllabus.

Isnt the anti-matter always in annihalation with the matter, thus causing there to be vacuum in space due to the presence of no matter in that region as it has been annihilated by anti-matter?

so in other words he didnt know

why didnt he just say so

or it could've been just 2 bits of matter colliding into each other and releasing energy. No need for antimatter. Nuclear fission or fusion its called.

what about dark matter?

That or something else.

the number 17 can reach the speed of light-

speed of light = 299 792 458 m/s

if we take the numbers that make the speed of light all as individuals and add some random math type symbols between them we get -2+9-9+7+9+2+4+5-8 which equals 17.

therefore not only can 17 reach the speed of light, 17 is the speed of light.

I just had a braingasm reading what you wrote.

has that been proved??

poisson · 14th August 2008, 17:05

so if the earth gets very heavy, it can theoretically sink into space?

i know. it freaked me out when i first discovered it. i don't think i have ever been the same since. the number 17 is all powerful.

you wouldnt by chance have that paper saved on your harddrive?

subspace?

Planets can't get heavier, only stars can. The Sun will sink after it's red-giant stage. Which by then we'll all be somewhere else already.

Another theory is that it creates a hole into another parellel timeframe/spaceframe. Thus it becomes a time hole

There should have been half matter and half antimatter. So if all the antimatter annihilated with matter (1 particle antimatter annihilates i particle of matter), no matter will be left.

No he didnt have a clue nor does any other physician, but it was just funny taking the piss out of him in front of the whole class.

There was no matter to start with at big bang. All the matter was created from radiation, and as i said creation of matter also results in creation of antimatter.

I just hope I haven't mislead y'all with something else, but I havent got it with me now.

However that's only if you're taking that the origin is 0, that we were formed out of nothing, absolute nothing at all.

this is the definitive answer to this question.

end thread.

nice!!

ok professor siyuan

warp travel possible

now if knew the technology to build it?

You'd have to get a space shuttle that moves near the speed of light, live up to at least 100 years old and have rationing for a really long time. Then fly to the nearest dying star, pop into it and see if you really ended up going back or into Lucifer's rectum.

Well thats what the big bang theory is. Everything created from an infinitely small point in space.

However what gives birth to that source of energy that made the big bang in the first place?

At that point you must think that there must be a supreme being out there.

Thats a mystery. But whatever it was, it wasn't matter. Matter was created afterwards from radiation.

Calm down you lot thats not true.

Dont know where you got that theory from.

Dark matter is subatomic particles that constitute 90% of the universe. its the stuff that fills the vast voids between the stars and planets you know, the visible stuff that only constitutes 10% of the universe.

When a star is massive the outer layers can become unstable in the stars latter years and the outer layers explode away and the hugley dense core can collapse in on itelf and shrink to the size of a pea yet be 1m times the mass of our sun.
It pulls everything in to its centre (singularity) and what happens to it then no one knows. not even light can travel fast enough to escape, thats why its called a black hole. mabey thats what you meant.

(there is one of these super massive black holes right at the centre of our galaxy

.....so, think on)

Veron · 14th August 2008, 17:25

Ofcourse we'll find a way eventually to travel faster than the speed of light,right now the scientific community are limitng themselves by thinking only inside the box.

Would a person moving faster than the speed of light be invisible till the time he slows down to the speed through which we can percieve light or will his movment manifest itself in sync with time at the rate of light and continue to manifest itself for many years even though he travelled at the speed of light only for a year ??

So wouldn't that cause another version of himself to manifest,one in the present and another re-living the pre-performed actions during his travel ??
