i want to be an astronomer. what do?

Time could be set so both planets are on the same page..it's best that way.

aye do you have a problem with me or something man? Pretty bold for a progressive tripfag

hey atheists. Did you know the chances of life emerging are astronomical? Scientists have calculated that the natural formation of amino acids are already astronomically larger than the estimated size and timespan of the universe. The formation of proteins from these amino acids are as high as 10^100,000,000,000.

Life is truly a miracle. If this doesn't convince you of the truth of creation nothing will.

Hey /sci/, I was wondering, what would you consider REAL intelligence, REAL cognitive ability, actual smarts. Would you consider people who have gone through university and such to be the smartest, or is that not REAL intelligence. What is the difference between an actual smart person and a normal person? What shows that you have real understanding of the world around you?

So /sci/, I've been thinking a lot lately. Is it possible that there could be an equation for everything? An all encompassing equation that makes up for the Universe as a whole? Or is it so random that it simply happened by chance? I really don't know, I think I'm asking an unanswerable question again.

if A=2, B=3, C=4 then X=26
if A=2, B=5, C=11 then X=87
if A=3, B=6, C=8 then X=90
if A=1, B=2, C=3 then X=11
if A=2.5, B=4, C=6 then X=49

How is X calculated from A,B and,C?
You are only allowed to use the four basic arithmetic operations and raise to integer power.
So no "hurr durr anonymous sequence" or code with conditional jumps.
Also the answer is not overly convoluted or counterintuitive. You should be able to solve this.
Lastly, simplest answer possible, kthx.

Hey /sci/, was there a Universe before the one we're in? Or should I say one before the Big Bang?

What is the most compelling evidence of evolution found in the fossil record /sci/?

Yes! it's going to be hilarious to see the Christian's faces when nothing happens.

Indeed good sir. Do you think it is nonsense or that more research is needed?

"Commander, we have a problem in one of our quadrants."
"Yes, what is it?"
"It seems we've discovered life on a planet we had once considered uninhabitable."
"Oh? What do the records say about it?"
"Apparently, this planet was close to a cargo route of ours. It was a restricted area, but one of our ships flew over the planet long enough to dump their waste on it and then leave."
"So?"
"Well, the bacteria from the waste evolved after a few billion years and gained sentience. This isn't an uncommon occurrence, but still noteworthy nonetheless."
"So let me get this straight: The bacteria living in the shit in my ass grew up and became sentient?"
"More or less, sir."
"I see. Destroy the planet. Leave no evidence of its existence. We can't have new life running amuck through our galaxy everytime it spawns, especially from our own waste. Ugh."
"Right away, sir."

And that's how I predict the world is going to end.

what do you think pillarbone of the universe is

sysgots when,

is the universe a machine, an organism, or just a bunch of random crap thrown together?

I am the creator, so why do I need to believe in a higher power when I am origin itself?

In 2089 you are nearing the end of your natural life. Having become somewhat of an internet celebrity you become one of the first humans to receive the new treatment of cellular regeneration ushering in a new age of virtual immortality.

15,000 years later you become the oldest living human being after surviving the second intragalactic war between mankind becoming a living treasure.

Some 50 years later you get elected to parliament and continue to amass fortune and fame.

200,000 years later not only are you the oldest and wisest living being in the galaxy but you undergo still more procedures to enhance yourself to a level of super intelligence beyond anything else alive.

Millions of years later having evolved past your human form you realize that you understand the very building blocks of the universe itself and have the knowledge and power now to create or destroy anything by your very will alone.

You have become a God. You abandon this reality to begin again. How do you create your new universe? What is it like? What things will you change?

How big is the universe and where is its center?

so I have had an idea for a while now. usually I don't post on sci, i'll lurk sometimes but i'm usually a /new/fag or an /x/phile, but I digress:

In ancient times humans thought the earth was flat, then because of astronomy we realized that it had to be round. in modern times most people believe that the universe is infinite, however there are some who theorize it could be a 4th dimentional sphere(there is a name for this figure, however i forget it) one possible evidence for this is that it appears some stars are older than the universe itself (http://www.tim-thompson.com/oldstars.html)) I have a theory for this, however it is not the theory I wish to present tonight: I think it is possible that the reason some stars look older than the universe is because the star itself has actually died, however the light we observe has gone "full circle" if you will, passing us and then hitting us after it has gone around the universe making it appear much farther than it actually was.

The theory I wish to present tonight is as follows: is it possible or even probable that time itself is circular? that the "origin" of the universe is an event which will occur sometime in the future, possibly even dare I say it caused by mankind or some other intelligent race

TL;DR: could time be circular?

Anyone watch Big Bang Theory? I think its fukn epic n alot of the theroms afe factual... + Sheldon is fukn awesome

We are all done with stardust.

Forget about Jesus and his "miracles"

The Universe.

Hello Everyone. I'm pretty new to /sci/ but science interests me greatly. I am trying to piece together exactly how our universe came into being step by step, please correct me if i'm wrong.

1. Big Bang
2. Matter and Anti-matter Collide and hydrogen is formed
3. The Hydrogen begins to clump up into balls and stars are created.
4. As a star nears its life cycle heavier elements are formed up to Iron. The star supernovas and even heavier elements are formed, as well as a black hole.
5.????
