We have people here that believe going near an object, Will make you shorter and live longer.

 

I've grown shorter living near my wife, but doubt I will live longer. It might seem longer...

 

Unfortunately, obscurantism is very widespread nowadays. In my countries, there are even people who argue that gravitaty pushes things apart, not pulls them together

Let's not get started with gravity.

 

I have a book called "the Final Theory of Everything". The authors theory that gravity does not "attract" but objects are growing in size so that instead of an object falling to "earth" the earth is actually growing in size and meets the object in free fall. Lots of other stuff he has in there, makes for an interesting read if you have nothing else to do!

nonsensical quackery

This is better science.

 

I am beginning to favour the idea of earth supported on four turtles. Turtles all the way down!

 

Wayneh, that depends on the mass!. Just don't get swallowed up by a black hole!

 

I have some ideas about physics, but I don't put enough faith in them to push them in the slightest. I prefer to follow the latest scientific advances, and see the data that is being gathered. The physics of my youth (I was 21 in 1977) has changed in many ways, but remains resilient in others. The Theory of Relativity, for example, has withstood the test of time rather well.

In that time Anti-Matter has been synthesized. Quantum Mechanics has taken twists and turns no one could have predicted, including Bose-Einstein condensate, Quantum Entanglement, Quantum Foam, and a lot more. I'm having a blast.

To complete the old joke all you have to do now is move to Oklahoma, and it will be a very long life indeed.

 

The supernova explosion must be caused by the conversion of thermal energy into a sufficiently large amount of kinetic energy so the mass can be expelled at escape velocity. From my research on the supernov

It could be caused by phase changes. Or new nuclear reactions that were not previously possible, given the much higher pressure and temperature......

Either way, if you get hit by a falling piano, the result is the same.

 

"Hey, wait a sec! Hubble’s resolution is only 0.1 arcseconds, so the lander is way too small to be seen as anything more than a dot, even by Hubble. It would have to be a lot bigger to be seen at all. In fact, if you do the math (set Hubble’s resolution to 0.1 arcseconds and the distance to 400,000 kilometers) you see that Hubble’s resolution on the Moon is about 200 meters! In other words, even a football stadium on the Moon would look like a dot to Hubble." (By Phil Plait | August 12, 2008, Discover online).


"History shows us examples of scientists who were able to make a great leap forward specifically because they were not limited by the data. One of the most dramatic examples occurs at the beginning of the nineteenth century, when we may find a scientist willing to ignore the limitations of numerical facts for the sake of correct idea or theory, even to the extent of saying that certain numbers probably should be made a little bit bigger, others a little smaller, and so on. It was precisely in this way that Dalton proceeded in developing his atomic theory. Some scientists do not like examples of this sort, because they imply a special virtue "fudging" the evidence or "cooking" the data, and they warn us that we must not ever tell our science students that discoveries have been made in this way." (Suppe, 300-301).

 

So if they cannot see the lunar lander, using the Hubble, then how can you see a black hole 1.8 billion light years away, that is approximately the size of the sun.

The black hole itself is not visible, however the radiation from the accretion process can be observed.

 

How can you determine the effects of a black hole 1.3 billion light years away, that has a diameter of the sun when the Hubble cannot see the lunar lander. Also, the lunar lander is on the moon.

P.S Our moon (earth).


PSS unless you're a nanospook from nano nano. Don't ask me where nano nano is ask nanospook. Psst. the ladies of nano nano have bald private parts that smell and taste like reese peanut butter cups that's why nanospook has such a smiley face.

The accretion process around a black hole can generate a lot of radiation which can equal or exceed the intensity of the original star that formed it.

 

So a black hole come from one of those radio waves? HA Ha

The radio waves are generated by the accretion of matter around an existing black hole.

However, the black hole itself is created by core collapse of a large star that was there for millions of years.

 

Be serious, radio waves 1.3 billion light years away, from the earth, being detected on the surface of the earth, using an interferometer. What happens if you were to fart, during the experiment. Do you realize how ludicrous that sounds?

First of all, the distance is much less than 1.3 billion light years.

Secondly, the radio waves are being detected by radio telescopes and optical telescopes capable of detecting radiation in the extreme UV and X ray spectrum.
