johnydon22: At the centre of galaxies are super duper massive black holes. Was the universe a kind of super duper giga mega massive black hole? Think about it because for me it explains the galaxies. I mean after it exploded there must be chunks of it with enough gravity to pull matter that later formed galaxies. I'm just saying o. But at least with all the matter in the universe and as it seems they are separating. There must be a centre and a spot to hold the matter together. |

RobinHez:We live on the milky way galaxy and i think that a blackhole seats on the center of most massive galaxies these are submassive blackholes. . and yes we have one in our milky way galaxy. . The distance from our solar system to the center of our galaxy is like 25,000 to 30,000 light years. . . that is multiply 9trillion kilometers to either 25,000 or 30,000 you will see we are practically at a safe distance |

Gorimakpa1: Unless u want to put yourself in a big box then throw it from a plane. You will receive weightlessness. Or better still put yourself in orbit where you'll be falling and not finding where to land. That's my contribution |

Teempakguy: Ever wondered? Just as planets of different star systems revolve round their star (composed of proton and neutron reaction); so does electrons revolve round the proton and neutron of an atom. |

Pls gurus I nid sm insight on wormholes nd hw its related to time travel.....ive always been of d opinion dat for time travel to actually occur, u nid to transform an object from its sub atomic level to light (E=mc^2), transmit it, nd then rebuild.....buh I wld like to get another angle from wormholes 1 Like |

Niyeal: oxygen is a diatomic molecule and barely exits as 1 oxygen...the radical oxygen i think is too reactive to be isolated. lols.....yes u can create water from molecule of hydrogen and oxygen but this reaction is an exothermic reaction and release huge amount of heat approx.500kj of heat (I wont advise you to this without proper safety training). Of course by burning hydrogen in air too you create water in its gaseous form and u may ve to condense the product if u want the liquid form...I ve nt tasted water produced from such processes, le Chattliers law describes a system in equilibrium and postulates that the system will undergo changes if an external constrain is applied to annul the effect of such constrain...its application is almost everywhere depending on how you look at things. a simple example is a reaction system in equilibrium ..if we increase the concentration (apply a constrain) the reaction will proceed towards the right forming more product to annul the effect of the increase in concentration. 1 Like |

johnydon22: I want to observe a black hole and see what is on the surface by myself . I know I'm nuts but I'll rather die trying. I can already hear my bones crushing |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by johnydon22(m): 3:02pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
Horlufemi: Yes the expansion of the universe is what prompted the big bang theory. . The universe is observed to be expanding, so big bang basically is the point when the universe started expansion. So i think that expansion birthed the galaxies and therefore blackholes, I think Dark matters are also a form of wild energy that we may look to in this regard |

Teempakguy: lemme gv u my take on this.....since the density of any thing will depend on the area..one cannot tell u d average power density of a solar cell without knowing the dimension of solar cell. |

kkash: The way I see it you can reverse time. You can either slow it down or speed it up. Reversal is impossible. I stand to be corrected. You can only use wormholes to beat time. |

Horlufemi:Aaaaaaaaah bro Voyager one sent to the edge of the solar system has made it to the outskirts of the solar system after maybe 37years i think **scratches head** And the solar system am not sure is up to 1light years in diameter, and 1 light years is approximately 9trillionkm. . Now imagine travelling 25-30,000 light years to get to the blackhole Even if you are an eternal entity you definitely would get bored after all that time Make we just respect ourself and try taking peeks outside the earth jejely, at least we have the ISS where we can camp in space or probably conolizing mars soon . . I have a dream of going to space sometime in the future but Blackholes? Bros you are on your own, oyo is your case.. |

Samguine: Mathematics, strictly speaking is not Science. Mathematics is actuality one of the "subjects" that shows that the so-called 3 great branches of (man's) Knowledge ie Science, Social Science and Arts, are actually basically the same thing/have same source. The only difference between them been the DEGREE OF MEASUREMENTS of observable phenomena associated with these "branches" ie Precision in Measurement. Science been the most Precise (that is why Science places such emphasis on minute measurements and instrumentation as well as axioms) and Arts been the least Precise. Mathematics on the other hand is basically LANGUAGE. Nature's Language. The Language of knowledge ie of ALL the "branches" of Knowledge - Science, Social Science and Arts. Thats why Mathematics can be useful to express phenomena in all these 3 "branches" . The reason why it seems Mathematics is a pure Science is cos by its nature it's the measurements therein are as precise as Science. But it isn't an exclusive property of Science. By d way, from the aforementioned it is clear that am a big advocate of the "Unity of Knowledge" ie that all things Known and Unknown have ONE SOURCE and hence obey same FUNDAMENTAL rules/principles. All the plenty divisions of this Knowledge is only an attempt by man to understand phenomena. 1 Like |

Who had an idea of what it takes to start up building of a science laboratory (educational: secondary schools for now) and also supply of laboratory equipments and apparatus... Danke!! |

johnydon22: I can do cryo sleep if it exists. The problem is that you won't be able to send your observations back. Its hopeless. But I don't mind dying in a black hole o. But for the ISS I need to be there. If this country wasn't a jagajaga country I would have been an astronaut. I'll even work for free sef. I need to be in the ISS I even dream about it. |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by kkash: 3:13pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
Horlufemi:was thinking wormholes are like portals joining different places mkin it easy to travel from one point to another at the speed of light |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by guyX(m): 3:13pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
RobinHez:A light is equal to about 1trillion km(10^16). This equals to the distance light travels in one Julian year. |

RobinHez:Its an astronomical unit of distance measurement, whereas the approx duration it takes time to travel from that distance. . .1light year approximately 9trillion kilometers |

Horlufemi:You have a passion for this blackhole oo, i fear. . anyway about becoming astronauts, i harbour that dream too, and i know maybe just maybe we may be the first to break the jinx of full blown astronauts coming from Nigeria. . .We will surely meet at the ISS bro, definitely |

Please people, I NEED A LAY MAN'S DEFINITION OF THE WHAT "THE SINGULARITY" MEAN. |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by guyX(m): 3:23pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
kkash:I actually had the same idea but from a lay man's view point. |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by johnydon22(m): 3:24pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
Horlufemi:I think if these exist as the thoery of general relativity proposes then maybe man can replicate them and i will love the jolly ride of moving from Nigeria to U.S in a matter of Minutes |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Horlufemi(m): 3:24pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
kkash: It's more like a short cut. It won't work as time machine. Since distance is a matter of time wormholes make it look as if we move through time |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Horlufemi(m): 3:26pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
johnydon22: The energy to create a wormhole will destroy a lot of things. Its better is used for interstellar travel |
Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Horlufemi(m): 3:29pm On Jun 21, 2015 |
johnydon22:Yes bro. Do you know the ISS passes over Nigeria from time to time. I used to have an alert to remind me. Check NASA website for updates |
