Doesn't the universe annihilate when "I" annihilate? Seriously, isn't this what "quantum physics" says?

Is it possible to point a TV picture tube (ie electron gun) from an old TV set at the tungsten filiment of a light globe & produce antimatter in your home? Obviously some magnets are necessary (= hi-fi speakers??)...

Hence the dexadrine! Are you saying astronauts (early or otherwise) were NOT given any kind of stimulant whatsoever? A quick google will pull up many "credible" sites that say otherwise! Russ, why were you so quick to deny any administration of drugs to astronauts, when in fact it appears to...

They are good movies! Hey, the Apollo 17 astronauts were on the moon for a considerable amount of time - over 70-odd hours! Did they sleep in the cramped LM? Or did they take amphetamines? I have read on the internet that astronauts were indeed prescribed "speed" to keep them awake & alert...

When the "experts" tell us that space is not "outer space" but rather a mathematical/geometrical "metric", I think we're all in trouble. "What exactly EXPANDS? Is it 'space'? NO, it's a 'metric'!" This is ridiculous. The more I hear from physicists & mathematicians, the more I conclude to...

Man, you guys are crazy.

I wonder here, what does it take for a new "paradigm" if you will, to emerge & be taken seriously? Wouldn't ANYTHING that opposed the mainstream be instantaneously lampooned out the door? I have this awful feeling that we are stuck with the established science we have today, even if it turns out...

Well, I'm one of those poor sods who suffers this universe - something in my genes, perhaps. I've never really understood why others don't have this emotional reaction also? I've always put it down to self-denial, or something... So no, I'm not really exaggerating when I say this universe...

No, it's not increasing distance between 2 galaxies that is the problem. It is increasing distances between ALL galaxies! How can this be? Do we really know? It's damn frustrating! Nothing adds up! Does the universe curve round on itself? Or is it flat & infinite? What is going on? Why aren't...

This thread is extremely interesting...but at the end of the day, it proves one thing - that we (layperson AND scientific professional) don't really understand anything!? It all amounts to fumbling with words. What we need is a model we can picture in our heads, something we can visualize. If...

Thanks DH! I knew there wasn't a conspiracy, but I just needed an explanation for myself. That timeline helped me out. I would, however, say that the caption for AS17-146-22367 photo is a trifle misleading...but oh well. Re: the background hills. Yes I can appreciate that they look closer...

Hey, I'm not defending this hoax theory! Like I said, I just want the issues cleared up in my head! Because here it clearly says the LRV was abandoned at Station 8! Here is a traverse map of the mission. You can see that Station 8 is roughly 4km from the LM! Did they walk all that way...

The clavius.org site is very good, but it doesn't specifically address any of the points raised by this hoax-page which I had posted the link to - http://nasascam.bravehost.com/ The page needs to be read in its entirety (you may skip the opening preamble). I simply want somebody to help me...

Moon hoax? Please help me debunk this! http://nasascam.bravehost.com/ I know this sounds silly, but I read through this page & it kind of puzzled me. In the photos the background hills are identical, although supposedly shot from different locations, kilometers apart. Also, there is a...

I love the sentiment, really I do, but can we have a few more sentences for us deeply disturbed laypeople? lol! Do you mean your Quantum Loop Theory? I really don't know where to start with this. Is it so new that nobody's done a "Paul Davies" with it yet? I need to picture something in my...
