    I How to interpret this new Keck spectrum picture of Jupiter?

    Thanks I didnt realise it was so old. Could anyone make a guess how many elements in the OP please? I'm curious just how good this new spectrometer is.

    I How to interpret this new Keck spectrum picture of Jupiter?

    Wow thanks, thats changed my misconception of each atom only having 1 line as seen on tv shows, which i should have known better from warnings about sources I read here. Can scientists actually pull out the types and concentrations of each atom from such a complicated picture? with AI learning...

    I How to interpret this new Keck spectrum picture of Jupiter?

    So that's a perfectly normal spectrum for a body made of "mostly 1 or 2 elements"? Edit: I realise they will be other elements in the planet of course, but do they really manifest as that many absorption lines?

    I How to interpret this new Keck spectrum picture of Jupiter?

    Last night, on Wednesday, November 9, the KPF team successfully captured a first light spectrum of Jupiter with the next-generation instrument This spectrometer picture of Jupiter has just been taken by the Keck, but I don't understand it. Wiki says Jupter is "89%±2.0% hydrogen" and "10%±2.0%...

    B How many nuclear weapons are needed to make a wormhole?

    My working so far... (I'll update this single post as I go, if I may please) Edit #1: I guess I need some of Maxwells stuff to find how energy can bend spacetime? Which was then leads to the EFE, which I'll assume are above me, although I'd like to try and follow this through.

    B How many nuclear weapons are needed to make a wormhole?

    Thank you for the very interesting news related to what I asked. Thats a fascinating read as an alternative to what I was thinking. I so love Susskind and his Stanford Lecture series. I rewatch them over and over in bed to hope I digest everything the genuis says. And the man rocks those BB...

    B How many nuclear weapons are needed to make a wormhole?

    Thank you this is now getting to exactly what I really imagined for this situation... Bob and Alice are separated by a set distance in space, which doesn't really matter for now. They synchronously release a large amount of energy. WIll this have the potential to create, what I'll now call, an...

    B How many nuclear weapons are needed to make a wormhole?

    Thank you, then I assume I'm wrong in my long belief that exotic matter was more about making stable traversable wormholes, where as I more meant the energy required to, what I thought of as to, warp spcetime enough to create 2 points in space which create an instantanious but unstable...

    B How many nuclear weapons are needed to make a wormhole?

    Hi guys! After many years of lurking quietly I finally have a question that I'd like to know, please. I'd like to know how much energy is needed to make a wormhole in terms of our current nuclear weapons, or how much mass is needed to turn into pure energy, maybe via antimatter annihilation...
