Population of China and India relative to the rest of the world.
China has 1.411 billion people
India 1.377 billion people
The usa which is third and owns that spot by a fairly substantial margin only has 331 million people

Time dilation. It has never made a shred of sense to me.

If you love her, go to her. Shroud her in your warm embrace.

Those look like Halloween costumes, boss.

You better start pondering. I’m not a betting man, but I can guaranty it’ll happen.

I am honestly surprised this took 3 posts to get to.

That light is both a particle and a wave but it depends on whether or not we observe it

What do you remember from before you were born?
That’s Death.

Having lost a family member last week, it’s given me some really brutal anxiety attacks the last 8-9 days. The thought of not existing in some way, shape or form, is terrifying.
My condolences, but you’re having anxiety attacks because you have no faith.

It’s still crazy there isn’t one equation that truly explains human flight perfectly. The combo Bernoulli, Newton, and Coanda come close but not perfect.

The size of the entire Universe. The observable Universe is 93,000,000,000 light years in diameter. The entire Universe is 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times that so it’s 9,300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 light years in diameter.
If it’s flat then the Universe is infinite. If there is any curvature, then it’s finite. So far, our ability to check for curvature says there is none, so it appears to be flat. Future measurements may be more sophisticated and might show that spacetime is curved.
Spacetime is the barrier. Everything else is expanding into spacetime, which is itself expanding at an increasing rate. Since we don’t know what spacetime is, best idea is that it’s an energy field of some sort, we can’t say that it has an edge.
Death is the cessation of the extremely complex chemical chain reactions that once defined an organism as being alive.
Consciousness is a process of the brain that allows an organism to analyze its environment in real time and then to construct scenarios, using symbolism and memory, which affect how it reacts to elements and events associated with its environment. In effect, the organism can continue to react to its encounters with its environment long after leaving it, via the brain’s memories, however symbolized.
At death, all processes of the organism stop and its components undergo movement towards entropy along with the rest of the Universe.

Neutrinos.
Invisible energy units that fly through everything at an unbelievable rate and amount.
