Oh my shit, that was amazing.

Do you believe in the existence of electrons ?

only if there's an associated panel of experts...

I read something about them once, so I'm pretty sure they exist.

Kind of, but not really. If you were to get in a car and just start driving in one direction without turning or changing course, you would eventually make full circle around the Earth and end up back where you started (let's just pretend here that oceans and other topographical obstacles didn't exist). To your perspective, it would seem as if you were just driving in a straight line the entire time. In reality, the shape of the Earth has brought you all the way back around.

The effect is thought to be the same in the universe as a whole. If you just point in one direction and go, eventually you will be circled back around to where you began.

I have read about Leprechauns and also seen one on South Park. So I'm pretty sure they exist.

I saw one in real life; looked like this:

What if you consider that the Universe is both every shape, yet none of them? You are referring to space-time curvature, I assume, but what about the fact that red shift tells us some parts of the universe are expanding at faster-than-light speeds?

but universe is infinite, so it would take infinite amount of time to make a full circle?

Originally posted by Ygrene Experts have stated that it would probably take about 41 light years. So, adjusting for traffic, I'd say 43-44 realistically.

Hilarious.

hahahahaha, I totally missed that.

This thread delivers.

what about the beings already on that planet? are we just gonna evict them out of their apartments once we make our way over there? tell them to discover their own new planet?

what if aliens show up tomorrow and tell us to haul ass

They can haul my ass when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers!

are you implying that if aliens were to show up and tell you gtfo,
that you'd goatse at them?

LOL no, I was thinking more of a Mike Honcho!

do they spin records there?

Originally posted by Omega_M Since the elements of the universe are same everywhere, my guess is that life exists only where conditions that are fundamentally similar to earth exist. That means a vast majority of the variables and not just the planet orbit and star size, need to be just right for creating a habitable environment. Having said that, local variables greatly affect the way species evolve. It is hard to say how different they will be from us. Life form exhibits infinite diversity on this earth itself !! what can we say about some other planet ? Except maybe that we share the same fundamental causes for existence on our respective planets.

yeah, i am familiar with spectroscopy (sp?), but that article didn't contain any more info about what had been discovered on this planet.

Well yeah, I was just trying to put it into laymans terms.

Hey, I never said it was possible, I was just trying to explain the idea that someone had brought up before

I have always wondered whether life could evolve on a gas giant planet, and if it did, what it would look like.

i actually thought of something like that.. could be possible.. ?! ...

i thought that was funny too. i was actually offended, since i dont belive in god and newspapers and reporters are suppose to be unbiased....theirfore i dont wanna hear some bullshit about god and new discoveriers in space. i heard about this on daily planet, really interesting stuff, i love astronomy.

Heh.

I made that up, mate: the actual article from Fox News is titled "Scientists Reveal 'Cousin' Solar System"... Fox News is not that bad
