Also, the bigger the universe becomes the more black matter increases. Because the universe IS expanding. But it'll take a good few billion years until it wipes us out.

Black matter - dark matter/dark energy - have a purpose. But scientists are not yet certain of what that purpose is. No doubt they will discover that one-day.

It all gets a bit confusing to me. I think it is due to quantum theory but the nature of a vacuum is confusing. It is said that, in a vaccum, particles are spontaneously coming into existance and going again continuously so a vacuum isn't really nothingness.

Quantum entanglement also breaks the speed of light limit: Quantum Entanglement

I've heard of Quantum entanglement. You'd have to read book-after-book to fully understand it. Plus, those books contain complex scientific theories. You'd need to understand molecular structure, mathematics, physics... It takes a lot of brains to understand. BUT the world's brightest brains DO understand Quantum entanglement. I certainly wish I did myself! But it is a subject that will advance technology: especially space technology.

There is a lot to understand but it is an utterly fascinating subject.

They are beautiful. But I hope if there is anything out there that it hides.

This morning a new reporter was saying how we could look for other planets suitable for sustaining life and I had an image of locusts stripping bare one area after another..

I'll actually be able to see it from my house but to get a good view I might take a ride to the coast and get a close up view.

It is Cherry, we can see them from out backyard but it is much more exciting to head to the close and get a close view and hear the roar.

Well if you get up to the cape it self it can be quite deafening. This one should be so much louder than most because of the size of the rocket.

Again, it is very exciting.

The Artemis launch is scheduled for today but the weather might be iffy. The window opens up around 8:30 this morning so i will be monitoring what is going on. I am not able to head to the beach to get a close up view but I definitely will get outside to watch it from here.
