Mythology and Theories of the Universe discussion

This is the theory that was long believed to be the most accurate example or theory of how the universe was progressing. About 10 years ago, this theory was disproved.

The Big Bang states that :the Universe is moving outwards at a constant speed and/or rate through space, and will continue to do so for eternity.

This was proven false because it turns out the Universe is moving outwards at an ACCELERATING speed. We go out faster and faster.

Yeah I learned that in science. I mean how much force could that be to be even greater than gravity and stil continuing today

It is a massive amount of Energy converted into force. It not only takes out gravity, but it takes out gravity Repeatedly! I think that the universe is like an Atom. It has the two forces acting on it. An atom has the Strong Force which pushes it inwards, holding it together, and the weak force, pushing it out. I think that the universe is the exact opposite. And the farther apart it gets, the harder it is for the weaker forces to keep it together.

Yeah it is. I think there are still little explosion at the tips of the univers so it can continue expanding

That would be cool... That is, if you aren't living on the edge of the universe. Then it would just bite. That would really suck.

well we don't know it is ever expanding it could expand the contract then expand.....we could be expanding at a accelerated speed

Right. But so far, evidence shows that it is constantly increasing its outward-movement with an increasing speed.

We find out through the RED shift and Blue shift stars emit. If their color spectrum shows colors more towards the red when we look at them with a spectroscope, then they are coming closer (means we are moving nearer) and if they show blue, they are getting farther away.

AKA: The Dopler Affect.

Isn't the doppler affect the thing with sound waves

but with our limited time looking at space compared to the life time of space we can guess but not prove

Right, the Doppler affect is the same with light. It works for both affects. When light is pushed out, it shows the distant forms a blue shift.

Its the opposite for something being pushed IN.

Oh ok

And yes, James, you are right. Humans have been around a short time when compared to Earth's life, and earth has been around such a short time compared to the Universe, that we really don't know squat. All we have is theories based on knowledge gathered from historical facts, and gathering from evidence of what might have happened then.

but like i said before be don't know if it is ever speeding up or just a cycle.

Interesting guys! Are you learning this in Biology? If you are that's TOTALLY unfair cause I'm in Biology and we're learning about the structure of cells by taking notes on powerpoints. Which is BORING!

are you in a private religious school or summat?

That’s cool, but she should say something about it maybe, or say if your interested look on pg___ and then give you time to read or talk or whatever

OK...

ya just a little

That stinks. I thought you had to teach the theories as part of the curriculum at school. I bet it's on the core test.

Its not in her books... and it is a Law I think in some states...

Funny thing: At murray high (my sister's there) they handed out the textbooks and then took them back, took out a chapter and let them have them again...it's the chapter about human reproduction. And in my 9th grade biology class we have 2 chapters on things related to that...one in full detail...she's a senior, i'm a 9th grader, tell me how that isn't a little messed up!

Wow, seriously? In High School we have to take a huge course on the reproductive system and the process (In case you don't get the hint, I mean Sex Ed.), but they took a chapter of it out of a TEXT BOOK?!? Are you serious? I wonder how bad it was, seeing as it was taken out... I bet it's just grown-ups being stupid, thinking we can't handle stuff. We gotta grow up someday though (Well, not Lela. I meant the NON-handicapped people).


Lol, kidding lela!

huh? can you rephrase that?

Are you sure you were kidding kenny? It didn't sound like a joke to me. It was MUCH too convincing... *pulls out her steal baseball bat* Are you SURE it was a joke? >:E *evil grin*

HA!

muHAHAHAHAHa cool Steel bat

Well, thank you. I've never used it for baseball but I hear it's very good. I usually use it when kenny gets annoying...lol jk

That is why my IQ is soo... soo... special.

Yes, it explains a LOT about kenny actually...including his 'good' looks...hehehe

just kidding kenny, your the 3rd best looking redhead i know...i know three.

that is to say three redhead GUYS my age. not three total

Do any of them know you?

What's THAT supposed to mean?

Half of my family has red hair and it's beautiful, the other half of the family, including me, has plain brown hair. Not that I don't like my hair but brown and black is so common here. My father, brother and older sister stand out from the crowd and people are just drawn to them.

nothing wrong with norm hair just be yourself and that is diff.
now back to the big bang...

BANG! and goodreads exploded into tons of other little sights so no one knew what was going on...lol jk

lol.

I need site names
lol?

Lol...Um. I'll get back to you on that one.

ok...:<)
:!)!

wink wink lol

Wow... You guys crack me up.

Wait! You're CRACKED?!? I don't want damaged merchandise!!! I bought you as my slave and they didn't tell me you were CRACKED!!! FALSE ADVERTISING!!!

haha.

no fake stuff(advertising)
P.S how much was he???

lol. not much. obviously it's insensitive to say the exact price on here for EVERYONE to see, but, not much... not much at all.

<:)
