    Kardashev Scale: Size vs Energy Output

    The Kardashev Scale is a scale (duh) that judges civilizations based on their energy output. There are Three Types: Type I: 1.74×1017 W Type II: 3.86×1026 W Type III: 10^36 W Now, its is said that civilizations will grow like this: Type I: Uses the energy output of One Planet...

    Stephen Hawking's Theory of Everything and Imaginary Time

    well...Time dilation expands space/time right? Thats why objects seem to become infinite and time inside the object appears to come to a halt. So I guess that the plank-meter and those velocities is expanded too.

    Stephen Hawking's Theory of Everything and Imaginary Time

    Not every Planck second, it depends on your velocity. Time Dilation causes this. General relatively must be accounted for.

    Speed of Gravity: Is It As Fast As Light?

    yes. If the Sun dissappeared, it would take approx. 8 minutes for the light to stop and the sun's gravity to take no more effect.

    Historical accounts of a 'Great Flood'

    I have a different way of explaining this. Do not forget that after the Ice Age native Americans and were stranded from having the rest of the world's culture. They too, developed flood stories as did Greek, Babylonia, Islamic and Jewish religions. Now, I believe this can be pinpointed at...

    What are the main reasons for having children in Western society?

    The popular vote is correct. While, the others may have something to do with it, on a purely animal level, the reason humans have sex is to have off spring with the same genes*, who will have off spring with the same genes*. *well, mixed genes.

    Anti-Matter- Regular Matter- Pulse Collisions?

    I was reading about what would happen if an Anti-Matter star and Matter star collided. What I read says the collision would make enough gamma rays to sterilize and entire eighth of a galaxy of life. Yet, I thought about something, when the two collide, their surfaces would touch first. (Duh) So...

    Solar wind + Weak magnetic field = No water?

    NOVA on WJCTv did a show on this like 8 years ago. Yes Earth's magnetic field is going to weaken bu thenget strong again. During this time we won't lose pretty much anything because its so short. Mar without a magnetic field: 2,000,000,000 Earth's max without a field: 3,000

    What about the physics of Flatland?

    I disagree, flatland might be populated by flatoms. Flat-atoms.:rolleyes: Well, then we have the idea that these flatoms might by a strange flat force or flattey, flat-gravity, be drawn together into stars or planets. These planets would have a very large effect and if were drawn on a piece of...

    The Expansion Factor: Simple Rule for Civilizations to Survive

    OOOH? China? I did that in the Pycohistory thread... well, along time ago, China had a nice little Emperor. He had himslef built a giant fleet that would explore the world. It went around the indian Ocean docking in harbors and ports and Sharing ideas. No wonder that during that ntime China...

    The Expansion Factor: Simple Rule for Civilizations to Survive

    The Expansion Factor is the simple rule of Civilizations: If you do not expand you die. Simple and example is Rome. The Roman Empire after a certain point decided it had conquered all the world that was important. It then built Hadrain's Wall. The wall was a metaphor for stopping growth...
