A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Reminds me of Outer Wilds. Excellent game.
I can definitely hear the banjo playing in this image
Do you mean woo-woo shit or conspiracy shit? Or both?
Yes
Serious question: Do we know how far removed from the exact center of the Big Bang we are? Is that something that can be deduced?
"the exact center of the Big Bang" is not a phrase that makes sense.
I'm not sure if this answers the question, but it might help.
Everything in space is moving, but it's not expanding outward from a central point, like an explosion. Instead, the space between the things is getting bigger.
The balloon analogy gets thrown around a lot, but I find it misleading- It's not about the balloon getting bigger, expanding outward from the center of the sphere. It's more about the surface of that balloon stretching.
The rubber sheet analogy helps. Scatter a bunch of things on a infinite rubber sheet. Now stretch that in all directions - the things get further apart, but are not moving away from a central point.
as arnold would say, "stop whining!"
you can just learn science and not resort to clickbait titles like "i hate this waaah!"
BE NOT AFRAID...🙄
Is that where the sperm swims to?
This is what the world looks like when you step outside
The Great Brown Eye
I mean, isn't it obvious? Christianity has traditionally believed that Earth is the center of the Universe. Everything in the Universe is moving away from us, as if we are sitting at the very spot where "Let There Be Light" resulted in light being let. Physics has proven that we are at the literal single unique geometric center of the Universe. /s
Sand worm's maw.
Fractals all the way down.
Gaze not into the abyss
FAKE!
Even children know that the sun isn't the center of the universe - it's Earth. Duh!
Well, clearly everything gets smaller as you go out.
