Please elaborate... I was under the impression that the exact opposite was true... the farther away we look, the more dense everything appears....
Since when is there a decrease in density as a function of distance?
The universe would not have a 'physical boundary' whether it was infinite or finite. When you imagine a finite universe it is best to imagine a...
I don't know what the term 'customary' has to do with anything. There are currently two possibilities about the size of our universe... It is...
Text will be gobbledygook in a dream. It is a method of lucid dreaming to really look at text and try to make out the words... if it is just garbled...
That is not why they are dismissed and you know it. Case in point: If this was different and made sense, then people might take it seriously....
Mass curves space in our mathematical model of space-time. The model works amazingly well to describe and predict things, but you are taking it too...
Not in any sense that has to do with the expansion of space. Eventually, when it becomes a red giant, it will 'expand' significantly... but that...
It does. It does. It doesn't because things are too far apart. Planets, planetary systems, and galaxies all have objects close enough for...
Alright... except there is no problem of speed limits in the case of the 'expansion of the universe' The 'expansion of the universe' is special....
If you would like to discuss the space between the Earth and 'New Horizons', then, if you'd like, you can say that the space is expanding... or you...
No, you got it.
Who's 'we'? Actually it would be objects moving relative to other objects.. and yes, they do move faster than light due to the 'expansion of...
In the context you are using, you should be calling it space-time, not space. I think the problem (and a very wide-spread problem it is) is that you...
This is a great statement... I agree with this. But after this you start to get enigmatic, Yorda. Do you believe in God or not? A YES answer...
This is true for an observer on Earth, but it is theoretically possible for the traveler to complete the journey in his lifetime. It is just not yet...
Short answer: It doesn't. Motion affects relative time... but this does not apply to motion due to the expansion.
You are contradicting yourself. You admit that the age of the universe can be described as the time between the BB and now, but then you talk about...
Light does not move slow, light moves at light speed... so you can't really formulate your description this way. In fact, (I guess I am...
You have to be more specific (what do you mean by 'outside') and use commas and periods so that I can understand exactly what you're saying....
Separate names with a comma.
