it has stars

nice dubs, freakshow

There is no other life in the universe except Earth. None. In the entire universe.

There's an electric current of 10^18 amps that measures 150,000 light years.

The odds of you getting struck by lightning and then getting eaten by a shark are more likely, most likely.

Neptune, the planet turn North to south, not east to west. So, is always the same time but hot n cold is repeatedly

gtfo

OP is the biggest faggot in the universe

Uh, that's not how things work, buddy. If Neptune were to have time zones, they still would change, even if they did so by a vertical rotation isntead of a horizontal one.

This current have a size?

He might be mistaking Neptune with Uranus, which I still believe doesn't rotate vertically.

it big

u big dummy

There's a small dwarf sun so cold (about 3000F) that it's matter turns to diamonds and is orbiting a much larger star.

A neutrino can pass through a light year of steel with only a 50% chance of being absorbed.

If you park your car in space, chances are, you will die in the process.

People on the ISS see 16 sunrises and sunsets in a day

Also red dwarfs have way way way longer lives than normal stars, so much longer infact that there isnt a red dwarf star that has reached a new development phase,

Not true.

There are more grains of stars in the universe than there are planets on the beaches.

CONSUME

There are systems called x-ray binaries which are binary star systems with a small black hole and a large star (typically red giant). The black hole steals the plasma/gas from the other star and makes swirls

In space, you do not instantly freeze, like in many movies. The temperature is close to absolute zero. You'll still freeze in space, but it takes a while.

How the fuck can we know this tho, don't we only know black holes exist by some kinda x-ray blast. I don't understand how astronomers can have such descriptive theories.

With our current view of quantum mechanics we can't leave our galactic neighborhood because the universe expands faster than we can travel

I heard you can survive a minute or so in space.

Every star appears as single point of light when viewed from Earth, with two exceptions. 1) The sun, 2) Betelgeuse.

Betelgeuse is a red giant so big that it appears as a disc rather than a point

You freeze and burn at the same time, depending on how your body is oriented to the sun. This is assuming you're in space somewhere near earth.

Instead of freezing, the gases in your body are immediately ripped out killing you instantly. The reason you don't freeze is because there is no matter for that heat to go to.

wat

There are black holes 20x larger than the entire milkyway galaxy.

there are autists in it
they're a universe of their own

just kek'd thx homie

Yeah, your body depressurizing kills you way before cold would. Things do freeze in space though, so long as they are not too near a star. Heat still radiates.

u mom big

We are the universe observing itself

The average matter density in the observable universe is only about 6 protons per cubic meter of space.

nice

There is no constraint between two distant objects when the space between them is expanding, so certain galaxies are moving away from Earth faster than the speed of light.

i observe ur mom

Anything can happen after the universe ends.......even with a 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance of happening

do you think?

A magnetar would pull the iron from your blood from thousands of miles away.

>what are (negative) exponents

kek

The colour of the universe is white. It's called cosmic latte.

I AM ONE WITH THE FORCE. THE FORCE IS WITH ME.

It doesn't exist.

The big bang is a lie and red shift is not caused by bodies in space moving away from each other, but is caused by the gravity of the object creating the light.

The moon and the sun revolve around the earth giving it the illusion that the earth is a sphereroid

thats not a 'fact' you baboon

how this thing is the coldest natural object in the known universe

any moisture begins to boil off your body

>>no matter for that heat to go to

You're an idiot

There are pockets of the universe that have completely different sets of rules for quantum physics due to "the big crunch" or "the big bounce" and these pockets expand rapidly.

what is that

your mom's anus

The entire universe is only 6000 years old.

theres these things that explode and kill galaxies called superqasers it could happen at any moment

sorry im fucked up and usually wouldnt advertizee this discord here but its easter you degenerates

nice one, virgin

That once the universe reaches maximum expansion, it will begin begin to essentially go in reverse, compressing until it reaches the point of the big bang, where it will all repeat in an explosion again.
Thus we live, we die, we live again.
Also, the expansion might actually BE time, and if so, we will rise out of our graves and enter our mothers womb again.
Thus, OP has and will have sex with his mom!

That's not the way it works, either. Time is not a spatial dimension and therefore, time does not "shrink" back into itself.

And there are studies that dispute this will ever happen, given that the current speed of expansion (and its acceleration) seem to indicate that the distance between atoms (let alone galaxies) will be great enough when the universe decelerates that gravity will not be able to attract matter closer together at all.
