Don’t forget the photon. I thought light was behaving as a “wavicle” last time I looked. A particle propagating in space in a wave. Contemplating the hydrogen atom for any length of time would reveal a hell of a lot of empty space in matter. That area between the nucleus and the electron....let alone the implications for all matter. But, nobody seems to care if they’ve got TV to watch.

Maybe the Webb telescope will help - it’s scheduled launch is October of 2018. Discovery Channel had a program about it last night, worth watching.

What? Really? We'll have the Webb and the Hubble?

I see what they did there.

The space-based observatory is named after James E. Webb (1906- 1992), NASA’s second administrator. Webb is best known for leading Apollo, a series of lunar exploration programs that landed the first humans on the Moon.

All these scientists, they try way too hard.

Secrets of the universe have been sitting around for ages:

Thanks for the link!
It’s a very compelling case and probably very accurate considering the things Paul saw in 2 Corinthians 12:2-4.

It makes 1:Corinthians 2:9 worth the wait.

Here is the question none of my professor's could answer. “If the Universe is expanding to the left of me at the speed of light and at the same time the universe is expanding to the right from me at the speed of light, shouldn't the velocity between both edges be twice the speed of light, which the the theory of relive tevity says that can't happen, excuse my spelling my phone has no clue what we are talking about including 98% of our friends. Great post...now I want an answer!!! Lol!

Things get really complicated when you try to invent a theory encompassing creation while missing half the facts, if not more.

But Frog,,, that’s a inappropriate comment on a science thread. It just didn’t belong there. I’m not mad at you, but it just doesn’t fit.

Crucial, you are so right, when I asked that question my grade just got bumped and got a dumb look. Btw, they all had Nobel Peace Prize for either Physics Calculus or Electrical Engineering, Bell Labs Homdel NJ

Here’s a question to ponder, if the Universe is expanding at the speed of light, how is the Adromedia Galaxy on a collision course with the the Milky Way Galaxy? Shouldn’t we be traveling at the spee of light ??????

I think I’ve recommended this here before, but anyone who finds this concept interesting would probably really enjoy the book Tau Zero, by Poul Anderson.
