Re: Deep Space
Bah, heresy! The sun revolves around the earth which is flat and lies on the back of a giant turtle!
great vid, i had that pic as my desktopp for a while |
Re: Deep Space
If the age of the universe is somewhere around 15 billions years, how can it be 78 billion light years large? Time distortion? If so, is the universe much older relative to an object that isn't travelling outward as fast as we are?

[/ QUOTE ] Of course, if you assume a perfectly spherical universe with the big bang happening at its center, and the universe expanding at the speed of light, being 15 billion years old, it would be 30 billion light years across. Of course it can't be that uniform. |

Wow! Sick! Nice thread!
