A quick thought about Astronomy.
This is a serious post. If you don't know how to add to a discussion or say anything except for spam, please just ignore this post.
We are on a [i]very[/i] small planet, which rotates about its axis, an axis which moves (look up:precession), while rotating about our star, while rotating about the middle of the Galaxy, in a galaxy which moves about other galaxies, galaxies which are gravitationally bound in a cluster, which moves about all the other clusters in the universe; all the while gravity bends light, light takes time to travel to us, and the expansion of space has been accelerating for the past 5 billion years.
We have absolutely horrible vision of the universe. Countless calculations have to be made to correct for error when observing space. [b]What If we're missing something?[/b]

2 RepliesWe most certainly are missing [b]something[/b]. For example: dark matter, what is it beyond something that should mathematically exist? To what degree does the insanity of quantum physics affect our massive universe? Then there's black holes, we know so insanely little about them beyond what we can observe with telescopes. The list of questions surrounding these is wall of text by itself. So we are certainly missing something, and I look forward to seeing how many more somethings we learn, and how many more somethings we discover we need to learn about as throughout my life.
