>>726131315
Yeah all the time lol
>>726131315
give me an explanation of how you could post a pic of far away space with us inside.
>>726131315
I thought space was vast until I rammed your mums arse
>>726131315
Yes and it reminds me of how insignificant I am. The world could spontaneously combust and everyone could burn to death and the universe would keep on being.
>>726131315
This isn't the milkyway, you retarded faggot.
>>726131616
FUAARK HE MUST BE AN ALIEN!!!!11!! CALL FBI, CIA, EVEN FUCKING INTERPOL
>>726131616
I always wondered about shit like that too
>>726131315
I doubt any human can really comprehend the staggering size of the universe. The empty space between suns in a galaxy, then the space between galaxies is just too mindboggingly huge.
>>726131315
Space is not nearly as big as people let on...
Here's a little nugget of knowledge that most people don't know. Pictures of the universe have color added to them digitally because space is really black and white
>>726131315
>>726131748
My answer: >>726129393
>>726131748
Would it be though, if no conscious being would know about it's existence, desu?
>>726131782
looks like the galaxy cluster
>>726131616
Because its not a photograph you fucking retarded piece of shit.
It is probaly a calculations of all the pics of space put togetherwaEA:Skl;hjaefh;
>>726132082
Utter bullshit.
>>726132375
its true though
>>726132375
actually it's greyscale
>>726132627
but the stars look yellow-ish?

I took acid last night for the first time and was watching the cosmos.. i was getting tripped the fuck out by how much shit is out in space
It's a scarey thought. A lot of that space is just pitch blackness and coldness. What is the fucking purpose of it?
>b-becuz God created it to show is glory
But....WHY?
Popular opinion is the the universe is actually a hologram
I'm scared of the distances... just imagine how long it takes to move to another galaxy. I'm scared as fuck.
>>726131315
Nope
>>726132896
maybe, but it is under obligation to explain itself to chuck norris
>>726132082
More like, the colour added is the color in which the gasses glow when we observe them. Like, depends on the heat of it or shit like that. All i have is some half knowledge from some documentaries.
>>726132861
It's an effect caused by the atmosphere on earth. From the moon the stars would appear white or on a grey scale.
I don't get how it's supposedly still expanding and the expansion keeps getting faster? That can't be good
>>726131315
Shit, this is a picture made by some different telescopes (Hubble being one) in the Infrared/X-Ray wavelength when pointing to the center of the Milky Way, I know it because it's my wallpaper on my Laptop and Tablet LOL.
Going to bread, we aren't where you say but.. Yeah, we truly are insignificant
>>726132896
maybe, but it is obliged to explain itself to chuck norris
>>726132082
the colors of the picture you see from NASA are with digitalized so it makes sense to us who see it. so they add color and enhanced features and make up somethings to easy know what they are talking about.
The pictures you see of other planets are artistic recreations. no one has never seen any of them.
we get data, no pictures.
I study this and I live 5 min from an observatory so I spend my childhood days there
>>726132910
Yeah. That happens. Me and my friend can lay out entire nights looking up discussing that (usually after falling off the swings at the park)
>>726132082
Not sure if bait, but I'll bite.
They do get a decently wide spectrum from telescopes and things, and while they are out of human vision limits, they are usually re-mapped to colors we see semi-subjectively.
Alot of it is just vast darkness. Imagine floating through that.
Don't you think how big the small things are?
If you keep zooming in you can always find smaller things.
>>726132168
Which got 404'd because anons are pizza-loving faggots, goddamn it...
Amazing to think we are the only intelligent life in all that space.
If the Sun was the size of a golf ball, the nearest star, Alpha Centauri, would be 732.8 miles away
>>726132375
Simply provable by looking through a telescope.
In fact, there are more than a few red stars and orange stars and blue stars visible to the unaided eye. (No Oxford Comma for me).
>>726131315
This will make you feel incredibly small.

^^this
When you watch simulations of galaxies that will collide soon it looks crazy (us an andromida for example)
But then you realise nobody would even notice and would just have a better night sky to admire
The real thing that gets me is atoms.
I heard you scale of the nucleus was the size of a pin head the parts orbiting it would be over 1km away
How to we even exist? Interact?
>>726133196
Are you fucking retarded you piece of shit troll
What if the entire universe is just a single cell in something much bigger?

Do u know what else is amazing we know more about space than we do oceans/seas/waters crazy
>>726132988
Misconception
When they say hologram they are actually just talking about an extra dimension
They call it a hologram so plebs understand it better
If the earth is so polluted, why can't we just blast rocket loads of it into the sun? Or releas it deep into space?
>>726133320
That's my only phobia
>>726133052
Depends on your tech and if you think we can ever beat lightspeed
If we cannot. We are basically confined here.
I like to think of it like a simulation. Where each galaxy is playing out different parameters
The distance put in to stop cross contamination
>>726133600
>Every speck of light is a star with planets around it.
Don't forget, we're the only planet with life on it
>>726133718
Oh fuck that, cells die all the time
considering im an astrophysicist. yes, its pretty big. literally no one on earth can comprehend how mind fuckingly massive space is.
>>726133052
It's not only the distances that are terrifying but the expansion itself. How long can planets just keep expanding before they break apart? It must be a slow process though because I haven't noticed any delays getting to work every day
>>726133117
Basically means we missed our chance to expand outside ftl travel
Probably for the best
>>726131315
>>726133736

I saw a shooting star yesterday /b/. Or a meteor. Whatever it was. But it was my first time seeing anything like it. White light in the sky, just falling at an incredible speed. It was almost surreal.

I presume you're talking about surface shots of exoplanets, since a few of them have been directly imaged.
Think about this anons

His opinion is as valid as yours
>>726132973
Why not? Don't you create things just for the pleasure of it?
>>726134805
Implying god is real
xD
Lads, will there ever be a time when the entire universe and everything within it ceases to exist?
Also, what exploded to spark the big bang? What was there before? No religious shit pls.
>>726133251
Me too, also after coming off the swings.
given the size and nature of it's expansion and it's over all dimensions no matter where you happen to be at any moment you are at the center of the universe...and so am I.
>>726135005
>implying that you know it's not
lol
>>726135030
>>726135030
Yes, it's called entropy
A lot of people think the Big Bang was an advanced civilization pressing the power button on a very power computer
>>726131315
thats my way of praying
>>726135336
I wonder if the button pressers are worried about us touching upon the truth by thinking about all of this
Why did the big bang/god creating the universe even happen?why are we here? Why does anything exist? why does existence exist?
What would anything be without anything?
Thats something you cant even imagine because there is nothing to imagine
> pretty trippy
>>726135254
Think of a line a mile long, and imagine yourself standing at one end of the line. The other end of the line signifies the beginnings of the universe, and where you are standing denotes this exact moment in time.
Get a ruler and measure 1mm from the end of the line. That's when the bible said the unioverse started. Now dissect that millimetre into 100 pieces. The last tiny section denotes when the bible was written.
Now imagine the other end of the line again, and how far away it is.
That's how stupid you look when you try to tell everyone that your god, not god, YOUR god created the universe
>>726135500
So what I'm about to say will truly mess with you. Every time I post about this, it gets removed. I'm giving you a heads up so you can F5 like crazy until you see my post, before it gets deleted. Got a new IP and everything. Ready?
>>726135722
>still implying
lol come back when you have hard scientific data that clearly states without a reasonable doubt that a god does not exist...cheap opinions do not count.
>>726135722
uh oh faggoty edge lord detected
>>726136259
>>726136366
>scientific data
Imagine a bomb full of sand exploding onto an empty surfaceāthatās the Big Bang. You would expect a pretty uniform heap of sand after the explosion, but instead, our universe immediately arranged into lots of sand castles seemingly for no reason and with no help, and we donāt really know why
>>726135844
soooooo fucking ready hhhnnngggggggg
>>726136490
still waiting...again cheap opinions do not count.
Space is gay faggots
>>726136497
yeah and it only took billions of years...that's a pretty long time you know.
>>726136698
your dad's gay for my meat log
>>726136490
Lulz that scientific method was invented by a theist who prayed to god 5 times a day,yes he was a Muslim Ibn al Haytham i think his name was.
>>726136617
Read the words, moron. You're the one with the opinion, and like the guy says, you're the one who's supposed to come up with the proof of your assumption
>>726135030
To 'spark' the big bang? Like it was a fucking literal explosion. Are you fuckin retarded, lmao
>>726136736
Doesnt really matter how long it took the point is that it happened
If you threw sand on the floor and left it there, came back 65 billion years later, you wouldnt be surprised they turned into castles?
>>726136789
>that scientific method was invented
ever heard of 'peer review'? You posit a theory, and then it is analysed by your peers, who either prove or disprove your theory.
Religious texts never come under such scrutiny when judged by religious scholars, they never seek to disprove, just to confirm, so their results can never be trusted
>>726136976
Still nothing huh? Keep resorting to meme's and pseudo-scientific junk it's all good my man...go smoke a blunt and beat it to traps, you deserve it.
>>726136497
Well it wasn't an explosion, first off.
Second, explosions aren't all that uniform at all.
Third, it sure as shit wouldn't conform to how sand would explode anyway.
>>726136789
There is no single inventor of the scientific method.
>>726136976
You got me, I'm surprised. Now what?
>>726132022
I comprehend it daily and I can't imagine why it's so hard a concept to fathom.
>>726133633
Here's a thought that will blow your mind. When you touch something, you're not actually making contact with it, you're just feeling the repulsing action of opposing electrons.
>>726137192
Youre sad,i genuenly feel bad for you
I bet your father beats your mom and you hear her criying in the other room in your shithole if a house with your shitty family.
Maybe thats why you're so retarted
>>726131315
no.
>>726136807
Oh no kiddo...I asked for proof first, if the fellow can't come up with any (and thus far he hasn't) then he can shuffle off...you're welcome to join him.
>>726137082
Nope it was invented by a Muslim it's nothing new everyone knows that.
And they didn't need to be.
>>726136617
tits or gtfo
>>726137472
What's the speck between mars and Jupiter?
>>726131315
It fascinates me greatly but it also frustrates me even more. Knowing there's so much to explore and knowing most of it never will be and even our own milky way won't be properly for a long while after we're all dead. The most fascinating part to me is way beyond what we can see, the universe that light hasn't reached us from yet. Unfathomably huge and all kinds of unimaginable shit we could only dream of. Maybe even galaxies full of life.
I'd also sacrifice my own life if I was able to be dropped into a supermassive black hole, if it's big enough you at least wouldn't be stretched into nothing so there'd be some mindblowing shit going on for as long as you lasted.
>>726137330
He's the one that started it.
>>726137472
>>726132022
Also I'll add that humans drag things up or down to their scale in order to comprehend it as a means of making themselves seem important when we're actually nothing on an interstellar scale.
>>726137492
And this ladies and gentlemen is the state of our education system...give a big round of applause to the downy who typed this drivel out, you can tell he tried really hard but in the end wound up failing.
>>726137778
I believe it's our moon, just in the wrong place. Bothers me too.
>>726137752
You're actually just wrong. The scientific method was developed over a long period of time in different places at different times and is still now being developed.
>>726137777
I was going to argue but quads do deserve tits...not OC but here you go
>>726138010
But he's the one who started it so it makes him the creator of scientific method.
>>726138133
No he wasn't lol
>>726131315
Only when I'm drunk.
>>726138133
Maybe an instigator but creator is stretching it immensely.
>>726137472
Damnit I knew that one. I don't deny it's mind blowing. I am floating on a chair right now! Also it disproves any case of sexual contact or assault though I wouldn't argue it in court unless it was my only option
Got any others?
what's outside of space?

sometimes i think about the universe and why it exists. and it's mind boggling to seriously try to understand something so massive and seemingly infinite. but the truth is that i feel that it would make more sense to think of the universe as a loop. it's not truly infinite,it just loops around again.
>>726140746
The real question is why anything exists at all, even gods if you choose to believe in that.
Maybe everything exist just cause we believe in it.
>>726141080
show me 1 thing that exists because we believe in it
>>726141299
Just an imagine..maybe everything is just imagine cause we all collective trust and believe. Who will know?

>>726142859
retarded sjw
I'm mostly curious about the time the universe didn't exist yet. Did time come in with the creation of the universe? Did time not exist before it? Is it possible to leave the universe?
>>726143940
What do you mean by that?

>>726143940
>>726144227
>>726144350
Nothing is ever destroyed it just transforms
>>726144238
So, the universe has always been there, right? The vast expanse consisting of space filled with particles and celestial bodies.
Will the universe ever cease to be? Will it ever not exist? Will there ever be nothing at all, not even a single particle?
>>726144554
Not necessarily the universe itself, but something, whatever caused the big bang, maybe some quantum thing, but that is far, far from nothing.
>>726143940
Only our subjective experience of it
Energy can change form but never be destroyed
Entropy will become exponential and all signs point to that being very dull for us
But that just means a different form of existence and is so far away we will either be wiped out or have transcended caring about such trivialities
Who knows?
>>726137659
I talked with krishna she said your god is not real
i think that is more than enough evidence tbqh
>>726144227
Always existed but we are just experiencing a very small fraction of that
>Like blowing smoke in the air and watching it fade
>>726144554
As long as matter exists so shall particles
Matter could just become energy again but that would require a natural process we are unaware of
Closest I can think would be everything sucked into backholes and given off as "hawking radiation"
But then when all energy is condensed into one space maybe that sparks a "big bang"?
