THE OFFICIAL NATURALIST THREAD

I would like to have an official "naturalist" thread. Let's talk about science without Theist or Atheist views in this thread.

I will promise to not talk about God here as long as you all agree not to toss in Anti-theism in as well.

I know some may disagree, but I love learning and talking about science. Hey even jlpk can talk about his scientific observations of multi-dimensions!

Deal?

 

Lol I doubt this has as many hits as the God debates. You assholes love to argue!

 

Has zero atom movement ever been measured?

 

As a rule book for the thread. Are you down or are you just wanting to argue about it? If so, you can meet me over there

 

I love the idea of a no theism/atheism thread.



I don't know if absolute zero has been achieved, but my guess is yes, since at the large hadron collider there are portions that need to be cooled I believe 2 degrees above absolute zero.

Wow! What materials can hold that temp? Seems like nothing can withstand it? Unless its temporary

 

That is so bad ass

 

Not sure and I was going off memory, but I think kelvin is - 276 C and Liquid nitrogen is I think -210 degrees in liquid form.

 

That is so funny that you posted that the moment I asked "what material can hold that temp?"

 

Ok, I looked it up, the superconducting magnets are cooled with liquid Helium to 1.9K

Here's a question. There are parts of this universe where matter is almost non existent (not enough to make gas, water or even noticeable energy).

What if, if there was a way to get there, be present in that space? What would happen to our mass? Would it break apart the spaceship that took us there? Or would that space be able to travel faster than light, since the physics that limit motion "resistance" is not there?

 

Don't know the first part but according to big Albert, nothing moves faster than light.

 

True, but it could be bent

 

I don't see how that would apply

 

Hypothetically, bending time and space would get you to point B faster than the speed of light traveling in a straight line.

In areas of little mass, bending that space would be much easier than "our solar system" for example.

 

I don't think we know squat about space and time and therefore how to travel. We know light can be bent but we assume a straight line when ever we look at something in space. Well hell perhaps the light travels in a spiral , around the source or the source of the power to bend it, and ever outward as with the big bang. Then it isn't so dam far if you jtrek, skipping forward in time with each track crossed. Ah but still way too far for man with such a short stay. Sounds like we need help from God again.
