You cannot take anything t'Rump says as real. Even words like "and" and "the" are lies. LC On Wednesday, November 16, 2022 at 4:55:15 AM UTC-6 johnk...@gmail.com wrote: > Check out this article from The New York Times. Because I'm a subscriber, > you can read it through this gift link

Accelerated frames can be addressed with special relativity. LC On Monday, November 14, 2022 at 2:14:46 PM UTC-6 agrays...@gmail.com wrote: > EOM. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop

Re: What If Humanity Is Among The First Spacefaring Civilizations?

I find it interesting that people spend so much time on something we may never have any hope of knowing. The nearest ETI might be 50 million light years away. LC On Thursday, November 10, 2022 at 4:35:03 PM UTC-6 johnk...@gmail.com wrote: > What If Humanity Is Among The First Spacefaring

Re: A sun-like star orbiting a black hole

I just did a quick Newton/Kepler calculation and found this star is about 6x10^{11}m or 6x10^8km for the black hole. By comparison Earth is 1.5x10^8km from the sun. LC On Sunday, November 6, 2022 at 7:32:57 AM UTC-6 johnk...@gmail.com wrote: > The November 2 2022 issue of the journal
