LOL
I thought we were supposed to stop having that “dark flow” in the middle of the night when we were kids...
No..Queegac would say “Dude, the leader of this region called America has a leader who depends on a teleprompter and the mate looks like a female from the planet Sasquatch”
Only question I have is now that we have observed it
is it still doing the same thing?
The invisible space cat is clawing at them? (Just kidding)
If it is outside our universe, and more than likely traveling at the speed of light or near it, then we will never know for certain. It will never be more than a leap of faith by scientists. I put this in the same category as the infinite number of parallel universes theory.
"40 Quatloos the American Earthlings are stupid enough to keep the pelosi creature in office even after this spit in their collective faces. As we have seen so many times, freedom is quickly and easily squandered by lesser intellects."
Pathetic earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void, without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe, anything at all, you would've hidden from it in terror.
Theoretical physics has totally gone to hell. The basic density of space in our galaxy is similar to that of the area including our sun and AC i.e. about one dust mote every four miles, and the density of space between galaxies has to be vastly less than that. There is no way gravity does ANYTHING worth talking about at those distances. Gravity is the weakest force in nature and does not control the cosmos, period.
Good science answers little questions with each new discovery, but raises millions of other questions we never considered before.
We need to keep searching, but the more we learn, the more humble we should feel.
Now the same team has found that the dark flow extends even deeper into the universe than previously reported: out to at least 2.5 billion light-years from Earth.
ok no more Rosie O’Donnell period jokes.
Sounds like the speed at which the Obama faction is spending America's future.
Uhg, this crap makes my head hurt. All I’ve ever wanted to know is, assuming the universe is finite, what’s on the other side? Has there ever been an astro-physicist that answered this question?
“What?” — or...is it “Who?”
I like the theory myself. The commies have pissed me off enough to the point where I prefer to be crushed to a pulp and explode rather than decompose into nothingness.
>>>So the researchers made the controversial suggestion that the clusters are being tugged on by the gravity of matter outside the known universe.
It has been suggested before the universe is multiple times larger then we can observe. Not as a matter of dark matter, nor of multiverses. But “simply” that at the time of the Big Bang, the expansion began in ALL directions at very high speeds.
The acceleration of the portions of the universe opposite and receding from us added to the acceleration in the other direction of the portion of the universe where we reside may well add up to more then the speed of light. If so neither section of the universe can ever observe the other, though existing side by side.
for the string theory ping list
.......So the researchers made the controversial suggestion that the clusters are being tugged on by the gravity of matter outside the known universe. .......
I concur, that is the most likely possibility.
The smoking gun that might propel them outward is missing.
