    You see many things, some of which come from your imagination.

    same place 'particles' came from.

    same as black holes, with event-horizons that suck in light (which is not supposed to have mass to even be affected by gravity)

    and dark junk (78%) of a new matter/energy, that is unseeable (imagined)


    so if the particle spinners can spin up stuff (seems they may now have a biology class to classify all the 'created' the particles, botony style)


    i can't wait to see the 'tree of life' drawn up for particles; the evolution of.



    do you remember the 'wizard of oz'?

    is there any way that your photo of the atom ( where did you get it by the way and what atom is this ?) can be shown in at least three more photos from the , top , behind and from below

    it would be very interesting if you could

    Some do. Some are proposed, but have yet to be verified.

    Actually you see them all the time, they are just so ubiquitous you over look them.

    Lightning is a large mass of electrons following the ion trail left by a cosmic ray.

    Ah, the irony. Photons and heat from the sun are the same thing.

    Quarks are in the we're pretty sure about it end of things.

    Why can't you see the bacteria on your skin. Some things are really small and your eye for getting you food, avoiding being eaten and finding a mate. It isn't for looking at microscopic things.

    You guys basically make my point for me. Electrons, neutrons and protons have never been observed in the real world because the human eye can only observe light or photons. They only exist in theory or on paper, not in the real world.

    Seriously, physics the way it is taught today is much more a religion or a belief system than a true objective science.
