Reply to The Tadpole galaxy by Hubble, Its eye-catching tail is about 280,000 light-years long. Also known as UGC 10214 and Arp 188, it is a disrupted barred spiral galaxy located 420 million light-years from Earth in the northern constellation Draco. Credit Image: NASA/ESA/HST/STScI. by Davicho77
It's crazy to see that in this image 95% of the light spots are also galaxies...

Reply to Discovery of 4,500-year-old palace in Iraq may hold key to ancient civilisation | Archaeology by JesseBricks
when did 2500 BC become 'ancient civilisation' .... ? Egypt was flourishing by then, Mesopotamia also, Sumerian civilisation was far older, Indus too
Talk 11000 BC like Gobleki Tepi, THAT is an ancient civilisation .

Reply to comment by Weed_O_Whirler in Light traveling through a medium that slows it. Does the same photon emerge? by TheGandPTurtle
>So, first answering your main question- elementary particles are all fungible. That means, they are truly identical, and they are impossible to label. So, if a photon is absorbed and then remitted, it doesn't really make sense to say "is it the same photon or a different one?" There aren't really "same" or "different" photons, there's just photons, unlabeled.

>And it's not just photons. Any time you have a particle collision which results in some different elementary particles (like the ones from particle accelerators), if one of the products and reactants are the same elementary particle, you can't answer "is this the same or a different particle?" It's a particle. That's all you can say.
So how does that coincide with the entanglement of two particles.?
These two particles are identified for sure....

Reply to Whats stopping us from sending a probe into a black hole if we haven't already? by stealth941
If we could, the probe will never enter the black hole's event horizon from our perspective...
It will slow down to come to a halt just before the event horizon.
From the probe's point of view it will enter without any problem if the hole is big enough. (otherwise it will turn into spaghetti)

But if you 'feed' them, will that prolong their lives?
Is there a formula that states how much matter needs to be added in what timeframe to sustain the black hole?
I suppose the smallest black hole will evaporate in 1 Plack second. Faster is not possible, so that is in fact the limit of the smallest black hole if I am right?
so the lifespan of 5,3891 x 10E-44 seconds

yes, but wouldn't they also grow if a particle falls into them before they evaporate?

Reply to The multiverse by Manureofhistory
The multiverse can also be an incremental universe.... So just like the Apple time machine backup, it not creates 2 new universes every Plack second, but only creates the differences, so incremental.
In that way, there won't be infinite complete universes, but still all possibilities that happen are possible and can be reconstructed by the incremental data.
