Out there, but interesting.

I don't think a graviton has been observed yet, still gravity works.

Does gravity acts instantaneously or a light speed?  Can forces be active without ''particles''?  Even light: we don't know yet if particle or wave.  Maybe none of the above, it can't be explained yet, it will probably be with quantum knowledge.

Then again, knowledge is one thing, it's application another...

In a few civilisation man will find the only force is LOVE !!! 


Is this the ''lounge'' thread or what!

I'll tell you in a couple of reincarnation, if I ever get there...

Gravity doesnt act. It bends space-time.

Objects are drawn towards a large body because the straight line they travel on is bent by gravity (very simplified)

We know what gravity does and how it works, but things are doing strange things, as you mentioned above, which indicates that there is more mass than we can see.

We dont know what it is, and that thing we dont know is currently called dark matter/energy.

Its not Gravity we dont understand. Its that we dont know why things act as if there is much more mass than we can see.

Do we really understand gravity?

Is there really any additional invisible matter that we cannot otherwise detect?

Maybe we do NOT really understand gravity and to explain the ever-accelerating universe and the oddly fast rotating stars in the outer edges of galaxies, we have to assume / invoke additional invisible mass (that we are calling dark matter).

That was the original thrust of my previous post -- that we do NOT really understand all the details about gravity (as per our current favorite theory of gravity -- Einstein's general theory of relativity).

In other words, maybe there is no extra invisible mass in the universe (that is, there is no dark matter !).

Our main theory of gravity -- Einstein's general theory of relativity -- is possibly the weak link here.

And sometime in the next few decades or centuries, it will be superseded by a more correct theory of gravity
-- and we will no longer need any dark matter to explain the currently inexplicable stuff that I mentioned before.

Precognition is “a thing” because the future has already occurred

Scientists Know parallel universes likely exist. The idea is that the past present and future are happening simultaneously

In theory you can travel to the future either at a very fast speed or though wormholes which exists through space


The fabric of time is not completely understood yet.

Everything that has happened and everything that will happen is occurring right now as time is positioned in space.

The theory, mustered up by Dr Bradford Skow, an associated professor of philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), states that if we were to “look down” on the universe, we would see time and events spread out in all directions.

Fathom this: at the center of each galaxy is a black hole leading to another universe.....

Multiverse.

If the theories are correct there are billions of other “you” that exist simultaneously in parallel realities. No longer conspiracy but science is creeping in it.

Goes without saying I think

We need a theory of quantum gravity first. Then we may find a theory of everything which would encompass newtons physics with quantum physics. Currently they live quite separately.

Perhaps thats when we discover what causes the anomalies we attribute to dark matter/energy

Personally, M-theory doesnt cut it for me. Superstrings and brains and many dimensions. M theory is still incomplete and full of curve fitting (no pun intended)

I think it will be much more simpler than all that and will be something we can all understand.

[Turner]

billions of other “you” that exist simultaneously in parallel realities

not billions but an infinite amount.

That where quackery comes in.
Googolplexes, and even Grahams number are insignificant compared to infinity. Seems odd to me to base theories on something we cant comprehend or understand

Someone called Turner with a Patrick McNee avatar in an identical forum using an identical language, also called English, just typed the same thing in a parallel universe. I dont buy it.

Does probability even work in the bounds of infinity?.

We dont know, is the show stopper, and one of many assumptions needed

[RouletteGhost]

Not so fast turner

Not so fast

Keep in mind. The smartest people in the world support the theory

We don’t even know what goes on in dimensions 4 through 12. Let that sink in. This universe is 12 dimensional.

Best statement I have read in a while. Most of the threads in this forum will remind me of this quote.

Must have missed your endless plethora of stellar contributions.

[RouletteGhost]

the evidence on the multiverse theory is mounting

it was strongly supported by hawking and todays science community continues to uncover evidence

the best theories on how universes begin is VIA black holes...which is at the center of every galaxy...if this holds true then we are talking about trillions of universes

[RouletteGhost]

in a 12 dimension universe where we can only comprehend 3 dimensions, things can get very weird....things are "living" in higher dimensions

[RouletteGhost]

"We are living in a three dimensional world, (possessing length, width and height), so we are unable to see the fourth dimension, as our physical world is constructed within these three physical dimensions only. We might feel or imagine time’s presence, but we can never actually detect it with our three-dimensional senses because it extends beyond our universe. We can only perceive time - the fourth dimension - as memories lodged at different intervals, with the result we perceive time moving in one direction - forward. A demonstration of four dimensional space-time’s inseparability is the fact that we cannot look into space without looking back in time - like we see the Moon as it was ~1.2 seconds ago and the Sun as it was ~8 minutes ago and so on."

Time is the fourth dimension in the science world

Want to know something wild? The movie interstellar with matthew mcconaughey had a beautiful representation of how time can change.....

On an extremely large planet which has a mass so big, one year spent on that planet can be 15 earth years for example...

this effect is throughout the universe.

this stuff really fascinates me because we know very little

"Time dilation near a black hole, with its extreme gravitational field, is intensified until time at the event horizon appears to be stopped completely. That is why black holes have also been referred to as 'frozen stars'. "

flat earthers are retards.

Well I'll just throw the word "toroidal" in here...

Ok say suddenly a massive object pops in near Uranus (I know). How quick gravitational deviation would be felt in earth?  Instantaneously or light speed time or any other?
