    Can white holes really exist as the opposite of black holes?

    White holes are highly theoretical, so I would keep an extremely high skepticism over it. However a lot of the stuff you write is correct, as far as I know. I am not an expert in this field either, but I have done extensive reading into it =P

    Data Analysis & Theoretical Physics: Opportunities Beyond HEP

    Every area of Astrophysics requires you to create theoretical models and use raw data to attempt to verify it.

    If a day equaled 1000 years. How many years is half an hour?

    You can use simple division to do this: 1 day = 24 hours = 48 half hours 1000/48 = 20.8333333... This is disregarding the "extra" days, so to speak. But if you want to find out an exact number you must do some research, I might be wrong here, but a year with 1 extra day occurs once...

    Creating black holes through relative motion

    A black hole is a singularity, we just call it a black hole because we can't see it with the naked eye. From Schwartzild's theory, yes, you can in theory create a black hole, however you would need immense mass and go close to/faster than the speed of light to make it able to collapse into a...

    What Causes Thermal Radiation to Be Emitted by Matter?

    I'm only specutaling here, since this is not in my field of expertise. The heat radiation emitted from objects is correlative to the speed and intensity of its movement, this makes the object exert more intense and more energetic waves of radiation. This correlation can also be put together...

    What Happens to Gravity and Temperature at the Center of a Black Hole?

    Anything that gets close to the singularity of a black hole is instantly torn appart beyond recognition.

    Breaking Light and Einstein-Rosen Bridges?

    Travelling at the speed of light would not create a wormhole.

    Help with a really nerdy calculation?

    70 000 light years will take a long time, even if they rely on Time Dilation. Instead of the trip taking thousands of years, from their point of view, it will take just a few, so no one they knew will be ablive when they get back. I don't know the exact calculation, but that is however...

    What is time and how does it affect our perception of space and light?

    Very true. As the universe is infinite, there is no way to know everything about everything.

    What is time? Is it an imaginary thing?

    Time is one of our dimensions, often referred to as the 4th dimension. Time has many sides; Time Dilation, Time Travel etc. etc. Time Dilation describes that time slows down from one frame of reference. Einstein's Special Relativity talks about Time Dilation. To prove this theory...

    Can Oil Be Heated in a Microwave Oven? Discover the Science Behind It

    The microwave oven send out waves of energy that heats water, sugar and fat molecules, if any substance contain one of these elements, then it will be heated. If you put a piece of metal into the microwave oven then, the metal will reflect the microwaves which will ruin your microwave oven. The...

    Kinetic Energy Gain: Why Is There a Difference?

    I'm going to use the example Cesiumfrog used. Think of a roller skater throwing a ball or a brick, the amount of energy the object thrown has is not just the energy that the roller skater threw the object, but also the momentum energy the roller skater had while he threw it

    The origins of universe and development

    Matter and anti matter annihilate each other if they touch and this meas that there are more matter than anti matter. However, why there is more matter than anti matter is something we don't know, but maybe somewhere there is a planet or some type of object made purely out of anti matter.

    Three suns in the sky Believe it or not

    Yeah, you can see that the light is bended in a circle, most likely caused by the lens.

    Does the gravitational field have energy like the electric field ?

    Do you mean the gravitational field of a planet?
