    Ligo: tHE eLEPHANT GETS wHITER?

    ok guys maybe I missed something but this project looks more and more like a Hi Fi enthusiast tuning his kit with excited enthusiasm. But no music is heard. :devil: Ok so a few years or so I said this would fail through an error of priciple. LOL I no nothing compared to these guys... so why...

    Is There a Definable Centre of the Universe?

    :uhh: But I favour 4 macro spatial + Loads o other macros not relevant to us but take no notice of me on that 1 !

    Is There a Definable Centre of the Universe?

    You Kidding? Current thinking is 3 spatial 1 time and a number of curled up ones totalling 11 or so

    An Introduction to Black Hole Thermodynamics

    Sure I understand and it's useful to view other stuff and think about deviations from your own understanding. Sort of a refresher that enables you to dig up 'knowledge' you assumed you still had... until challenged. I enjoyed the excercise, thanks! However!:blushing: Thinking again re the...

    An Introduction to Black Hole Thermodynamics

    Lol, yes but some is still a bit iffy. Amusing that he suggests Hawking's writing is poor. Crikey, look at this brief extract: "One of those electrons can violate conservation of energy by spontaneously jumping into a positive energy state provided it falls back into the hole quickly...

    Exploring the Edge of Space with Professor Brian Greene

    I think I have a vague idea of what you are on about. Maybe this will help... Get a rubber band. Mark it at 20mm separations. Now stretch the band. None of your marks moved along the band did they? That is no galaxy moved through space. However each mark (galaxy) separated at a speed from...

    Hubble expansion inside a contracting supercluster

    Jon, Hi. Just wanted to thankyou for your post which has put to rest my own general deductions/assumptions along the lines you have described... I had no idea they were 'legitimate'. Similarly your use of the word 'flow'. Clearly I am more ignorant than I thought! I'll leave it there so as...

    Exploring the Edge of Space with Professor Brian Greene

    GeeSuggest you read Marcus's super posts again. The answers are there. I must admit that I am stuck though by your comments about galaxies expanding faster than light:confused: Oh maybe you mean that they separate faster than light? Whatever maybe a good idea to reflect on what has been...

    Is There a Definable Centre of the Universe?

    Marcus:"lots more to say but I too have to go out" We look forward to yr return!

    should this be >25 solar masses rather than <25 solar masses :shy:

    Suggest you review this stuff as it's easy to screw up (I have many times):rolleyes:

    An Introduction to Black Hole Thermodynamics

    Particles and anti particles both have positive mass. Let's suppose that a virtual pair very close to the event horizon appear and that one of the pair just happens to be headed the right way to avoid crossing the event horizon whilst the other is not and falls in. Ok? Then the infalling...

    An Introduction to Black Hole Thermodynamics

    No known object can leave a black hole including particles traveling at 'c'. This includes virtual particles. NB the space inside the event horizon is still space and as such has virtual particles, I suggest

    An Introduction to Black Hole Thermodynamics

    Light has no rest mass. It does have mass in the sense that it has energy and ,as you know e=mc^2. Hence you will note people saying light has mass-energy Light at but not crossing the event horizon goes around and around the hole. If it crosses the event horizon then it cannot return. The...
