The Big Bang was never created. Matter can never be created or destroyed, but it can convert into pure energy as well as pure energy can convert itself into matter. The Big Bang would be nothing more than a huge release of energy that converted into matter, and is still converting to matter to this day as the universe expands.

Correction, there is no sound in a vacuum. This is because sound travels through the air or through solid objects. A vacuum is an area that is completely devoid of any kind of atmosphere. Seal a box until it is airtight, pump out the air until there is not a single atom of air and you get a total vacuum. Neil Armstrong and the other Apollo 11 astronauts used a radio to communicate with mission control in Houston, Texas. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which light is also. They do not rely on the air as a medium. A radio detects these electromagnetic waves and translates them into audio that humans can perceive. The audio is emitted from a speaker, which is modeled after the human voicebox and uses the air that the astronauts brought with them inside their spacecraft to allow sound to be transmitted from the speaker to their ears. To send a message back, the crew spoke into a microphone that translates the sound their voiceboxes make into electromagnetic waves that are detected by mission control's radio, translated into audio for them to hear and vice versa. As for the sun, it is not a ball of fire, but a ball of superheated plasma that is created through natural fusion reactions caused by the sun's mass compressing in on itself. Fusion reactions happen as long as there are atoms and as long as there is a force to exert on the atoms to make them fuse and does not rely on oxidation.

>>1869709
as far as i know, atoms are what create sound. we can hear them..... so then if we can't hear "sound" in space doesnt that mean it doesnt exist... are you saying there's no atoms that make up space?

>> No.1869720

>>1869712

ok...let's break this down...sound travels via pressure waves. you hear shit because those pressure waves beat against your ear drums. in space there is not enough matter to allow pressure waves to propagate

accumulation of energy is one possible explanation. the particle living in the 5th (i think) dimension accumulates energy and then reaches a breaking point. one theory is that the universe expands then due to gravitational forces the expansion slows down and the universe collapses on itself. once it collapses it accumulates so much potential energy that it cannot be contained, and "bangs" again. like a mass on a spring, oscillating. I think this is a terrible explanation on my part. I haven't had upper-division GR yet.

Not to add fuel to the trolling fire, but, you're sort of wrong.

Stars with masses larger than ours actually rely more so on the C-N-O cycle to fuse hydrogen into helium. In case you didn't realize it, the C, N, and O in that name refer to Carbon, Nitrogen, and Oxygen.

Okay, but the way it works is it's like a tuning fork. It only causes vibrations in two objects made of this quartz through electromagnetic waves. Although this might mean that we won't have to rely on complicated radios to communicate over short distances and instead make microphones and speakers out of this quartz and put them in space suits for astronauts to communicate with each other.
