Justify that claim. The history of the schwarzschild metric predates einstein by a hundred years.http://www.phys.ufl.edu/courses/phy3...ichell1784.pdfRelativity itself as a theory predates einstein by THOUSANDS of years, all he did was modify it slightly to make it more consistent with extreme...

Also new horizons is great stuff. Extremely commendable, and we need more stuff like it.

Completely and totally wrong on every level. Every man made object ever launched into space has used newtonian orbital mechanics to plot and ACCURATELY predict its location and movements, with gravitation being calculated with instantaneous travel speed. You don't even seem to understand the...

Perhaps, but I consider gravitational anomaly mapping extremely compelling evidence in favor of my statement. I know in the MATH that the fields don't rotate, but that doesn't match real world observations.

I don't have time to truly disassemble this article atm, and won't for a couple days sadly. Why does it fail to meet the level of a scientific discovery? The first and most obvious answer is the detection level is far too low. The most shady part of the scientific process they follow was when...

fuk them and their foreign releases before america. Pirate hat on.

I think this guy suffered from Shamalyaman disease. He gets help writing a decent story and then thinks he can actually write himself. Nope, you can't His movies are well made, so aliens could be good, but I'm starting to think its fucked if he writes that shit.

From the 1400s to the early 1900s scientists considered it 'apparent' that gravity was a force of infinite speed. It's very very easy to see that it must act at infinite speeds or at the very minimum many factors higher than C due to the fact that the solar system flies apart if you attempt to...

Actually not the first time I've seen this idea. Superconductors have a lot of unusual properties that we don't understand, and do require far more research. The idea that they can reflect gravity is unusual to say the least, but not beyond the realm of possibility. Raymond Chiao has been...

Gravity's effect acts at infinite speed, easily proven with our own solar system. That didn't sit well with scientists at the turn of the century, so they created a mathematical construct that would allow this to happen by creating gravitational fields, basically a gravitational memory with...

I constantly feel your pain, bro. He's at an impressionable age where wrongs taunt to him may take a long time to fix if you don't give him good information in a very memorable way. Take him to a planetarium, especially one with a telescope or contact a local university to see if they have...

My opinions on blade runner itself aside, what is the purpose of this or including harrison ford. Harrison ford used to be great in movies, but he's so far gone into the I don't give a fuck realm I actually consider him a liability when I look at a cast now. Unless he plays a senile old man, I...

Was worth it just for the high def cut scenes as a homeworld fan. They did a really really top notch job restoring those and the voices. As for the quality of game play- there are some definite bugs. Sometimes ships undocking will get stuck if they interact during the animation. Fuel...

patriots just cheated their way to another championship. This shit goes on at every level. If you aren't cheating, you aren't trying.

I'll wait for them to verify that something is even happening before trying to explain what it might be. I take science one step at a time. QE isn't verified, so theories based on it existing are nonsense. I linked a paper written by the guy who inadvertently created QE talking about its...

I'm not rejecting the evidence. I'm just extremely read on the subject and very aware of the fact that there is no evidence yet. If someone could prove me wrong, I'd be more than willing to accept it. Why should I believe in something that has no observational basis what so ever? What I don't...

Science occured in the correct order in this situation. We observed how gravity worked, and made a theory that matched it as close as we mathematically could. When our powers of observation got better, we found that this theory could not perfectly predict the movement of things, as first noticed...

Since you don't want to specify a paper, and likely wouldn't even understand it if you did, I will use the first example from your list that deals with quantum entanglement:http://journals.aps.org/prx/pdf/10.1...ysRevX.4.04103 This paper is a fun one, because the entire point of it is using...

My standard for science is data and peer review. I forgot your standard is something a guy claims proves something, never mind that whole science mumbo jumbo stuff. I mean, it does what you believe, so It must be fact. I forgot that you're the guy who couldn't even understand the conventional...

I am pushing no theories. My claim in this instance is that I do not believe in QE, because it is not scientifically proven. Yet again, I very specifically have said what I consider proof, and what I consider proof agrees exactly with the scientific standard of proof. Since talking with you is...

You're post makes it absolutely clear you have no idea what you're talking about. Your supposed 'proof' was something I talked about earlier objectively, and you already claimed it to be wrong. Read my response, it was a later article written by the same man on the same subject. He's more...

I feel like the hillbilly culinarian today. Just made saffron rice with pork butt and a balsamic must reduction. Shit was amazing. Basmati goes incredibly well with fatty pork, it has the same sort of light stringy melting texture. Towelheads have no idea what they missing out on.

1. Quantum entanglement is completely unproven.

Strategically placed hole. And I'll be happy if nobody can argue against me based on science. I just like to come in here and remind people from time to time that QE has less science behind it than fursuit making.

Have you pissed of any chinese lately?

I only make one factual statement in my post, one that I have repeatedly asked anyone on this forum to disprove, and nobody has managed to do it. It's a simple and direct fact that should be extremely easy to call me on. 1. Quantum entanglement is completely unproven. Can you prove my...

Depends on what his favorite animal is. As for your broken quotes. I agree completely that this is not valid science. Why the fuck do you think I have so much hatred for it?

Let me explain QE and the concept behind it in as layman's terms as I can surmise before answering your questions. there's a very long standing idea behind physics that the existence of light speed proves that something has to move faster, we just don't know what it is. QE actually arose as a...

The sad part is I'm not trolling. Do your research and come back. QE by design is an unprovable thought experiment. The fact that people accept it as real when it was designed to be fundamentally impossible to prove, and is currently unproven, is something I find comical.

I remembered the number 25 off the top of my head. I thought I remembered that cause it was 25m/s2, but its roughly 25 times the gravity. Since the exact amount was inconsequential to my argument I didn't bother refreshing my memory with google, despite the fact the number felt low on first...

You are correct.

Even I'm not so blatant about my neg farming. Whedon has some shitter movies, but he also has some brilliant shit too. Nobody's perfect.

Its too fucking long. I don't want to feel like im dying in an avalanche of letters when I read a post.

I'm the one arguing it may have more ways where it's not constant. To address what you said, space isn't made of water. On top of that, if you want to get super technical, which you're trying to do, light still travels at C even when its apparent speed is slower, at least according to...

kass is stupid and annoying, but that nerf is HUGE. It'll be a step in the right direction if they give him some love to go with it. He'll definitely need it after that kick in the balls.

I always knew you were a criminal.

Hunting should be illegal unless you own the animal or intend to eat it in a conversationally sound way, or its necessary for population management. Was the animal owned? Does such ownership come with a responsibility to maintain a proper population? Then it should be legal to gun down...

The left handed chirality of life is similar to the question of why matter won over anti matter. In theory, there should be equal amounts of both, and anti-matter worlds could exist in just as coherent a form as matter worlds.... but this isn't true. The most likely cause of this discrepency...

Correct. The whole planet is extremely cold. That said, we've learned enough about life to figure out it doesn't need heat light or much water to exist, these things just make it much easier.

The chances of life on Europa are quite low. If there is life, it will be -extremely- simplistic. The radiation of gas giants is too high to allow complex creatures to evolve. Titan has a slightly higher chance, but I'd still consider it pretty low. If we're looking for life in the solar...
