What's the point of your career if we can't resolve anything beyond a blurry splotch, even at relatively close distances, even using the entire focal length of the earth? We have to write computer algorithms to try and decode the splotches, but at that point you're just programming in what you expect to see

Could the force causing the universe to expand be coming from another dimension?

Are you one of those retards who believes in the Big Bang? Or one of those based scientists who know its BS and shit tier science but have to hide your powerlevel around other scientists to avoid being ostracized?

why you faggots don't think of the fact that space is scaling inside BHs. so when the matter can't be more dence it scales out the space inside the event horizon.

those are astronomers. Astrophysicists try to uncover the physics behind our reality.

I become american

no, alot of the blame lies with ourselves.

with the size of the universe, the chance that there isn't intelligent life somewhere in or outside of our observable universe is zero

Yeah well, they also work with data. I was in an astrophysics lab, they're running experiments an shit using the global telescope network

Space exploration and tech will be worth everything to us soon. Nigger.

When did you realize the universe is electric and if not when did you realize that you were a retard? I’m sure you also believe in the holocaust, racial equality and trans people being real right? Academia is literally worth less to me than the word of a 5 year old child.

ask your mom to step on the scale to find out

we dont know about it, thats why we're coming up with theories to try explain it.

we've helped uncover how reality works. Without us, you wouldnt know anything about the universe. I can see how thats a more metaphysical contribution than e.g. doctors but i still think its important

If you believe in an infinite past, then you also have to believe that an infinite amount of time passed in order for us to be now. And that is impossible, if you ever tried counting up to infinity.

Which is more likely in your opinion
>the universe continues to expand for eternity
>it expands to a point and then collapses back in on itself
?

We're never going to leave this solar system, you retarded ass nigger. Anyone who thinks so is wrong. We'll go to Mars, but we'll never colonize it. We'll never teraform it, we'll never teraform Titan. We'll never live anywhere other than earth, and no human will ever leave Heliocentric influence ever. There is no future for humans in space. If you think there is, then you're a fucking /r/rickandmorty fucking basedboy.

Space is beautiful and wonderful to look at and think about and ponder about, but we're never getting there. The Fermi Paradox exists for a reason, shitwits. We're never leaving, and no one is out there and coming to help us. The great filter is the insurmountable distances. I can't help but feel everything is kept apart for a reason.

> Without us, you wouldnt know anything about the universe
There you have it! A wild Uselessnes appears!

How big is Uranus?

When did you realize that academia was bullshit? For me it was being 3 years old and seeing a black person for the first time and knowing something implicitly that our universities try to deny. What about you? You’re smart right?

no but i do personally believe in an infinite universe which is pretty much the same thing

unfortunately yeah. you could apply at your local observatory though if you wanted to try work your way up

chance of it existing is near certain, chance of us finding it would be near zero (unless we develop FTL)

Possibly. There are theories going around that dark energy is wrapped up in a higher dimension, thus making it not interactive but still able to project gravity on our universe

Tell me how Fravors fucking TicTac UFO is moving. I dare you send me a fucking metabunk link you punk.

Tell me about how light bends due to the force of gravity.

If all non whites just vanished and we somehow made a worldwide natsoc movement with all land on earth for whites it could unironically happen. Literally brown people forbid us from doing anything.

Not in our life time no, I don't think so.
>We'll go to Mars, but we'll never colonize it
>We'll never teraform it, we'll never teraform Titan
I think we'll colonize Mars, but terraforming is a meme and retarded. You can just build habitats just as good and much easier/cheaper than terraforming.
>There is no future for humans in space
user, the satellites we use every day are in space, and we're becoming more and more dependent on them. Near Earth Orbit and the Lunar Orbit/Surface will be heavily colonized and commercialized soon
But yea on interstellar shit that's sci fi as of now.

You ever suck a dick?

answer question plox

Thank you.

Why?

What do you think about the idea that the physical world exists as a mathematical object, like how the Mandelbrot set reveals the realm of fractals? Could this be why mathematics does such a good job explaining the physical reality around us?

Good thing the universe is electric.

I appreciate almost everything you said on this reply except for the "sci fi as of now

You, if you really are an astrophysicist worth his salt is surely well aware that the energy requirements of a craft necessary to propell and sustain a large party of colonist across interstellar distances is more than the energy reserves of the entire planet plus all the energy it would take to acquire that energy. Not to mention the physical danger and psychological difficulties of sustaining a society for hundreds or thousands of years in a small floating craft. It's simply not going to happen. Be realistic. You can't make something from nothing, and we aren't going to pull that much energy out of our ass.

This is an astrophysics thread, not an astrology thread.

I believe it to be the result of quantum fluctuations over gargantuan periods of time

journals.aps.org/prd/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevD.89.083510

I would say its infinite

gravitational collapse of of a stellar object

alot of it is bullshit but not its entirety.

gravity bends the medium that light travels in, thus making the only possible way for light to travel, a curved path.

How much of what you belive to know is tangible and how much is held together by the mathematical equivalent of gum and string?
Also your opinion on aether theory.

What if humans just aren’t meant to/ intellectually able to understand the universe?

>dark energy and dark matter
>schools teach it and governments proclaim it to be true
>we dont know about it, thats why we're coming up with theories to try explain it

This should be more clear to the masses. Dark Energy is a theory without any basis other than it "feels" right to some people. Dark Matter has a tiny bit of evidence, but it can also be used to prop up other theories.

My studies of dark energy and dark matter have led me to believe astrophysics is in the realm of psychology or astrology. pic related is the only astrophysics I believe.
