It looks like e^-y works as an integrating factor. From there, it becomes closed and exact.

Remember, the only way for an object to be visible is to shine photons on it and let those particles reflect back you or to let it emit photons of its own. In every-day life, our objects are too massive to be affected much by photons bouncing off of them. On the quantum level, electrons are so...

Relativity is a more modern view of physics than Newtonian. Newtonian is more classical. It has nothing to do with Einsteinian theories.

Church isn't about spewing out fairy tales. But anyway... I believe what you're saying is that time travel to the past is possible and that nonexistent objects that are going to exist at some point in the future can cause themselves to exist further back in the past by manifesting themselves by...

Even if our universe was the result of a collapse of some other type of matter in another dimension or the "Big Crunch" of a mother universe in the past, this only pushes the problem further back in time. It's the equivalent of asking, "Where did life come from?" and answering with, "Aliens...

156 billion light years wide? If the radius is around 78 billion light years, and the estimated age of the universe is around 15 billion years, would that not mean that enormous amounts of matter traveled faster than the speed of light from a theoretical point of singularity in the past? Or am I...

I don't see how such a large object as the moon could have had such a small effect on the orbit of the Earth around the sun. Our planet's eccentricity is so tiny; only Venus and Neptune have more perfect circular orbits. A collision would have to have been a cataclysmic event, yet our orbit is...

The freakiest thing I'd say that hasn't been mentioned yet is the fact that the moon and sun are exactly the same size in the sky.

I thought that the idea of a white hole or wormhole was mostly ad hoc, and that it was extremely unlikely any existed. We should probably go further to unite general relativity and quantum mechnanics before speculating and what happens when matter enters a black hole, yes? Or do I not know what...
