My point exactly. When the shear scale of the universe and it's mysteries is revealed, the insignificance of the lives of a bunch of inconsequential sinkies takes on a whole new perspective.

</center><center>Star Factory Messier 17
Image Credit: Subaru Telescope (NAOJ), Hubble Space Telescope,
Color data: Wolfgang Promper, Processing: Robert Gendler</center>Explanation: Sculpted by stellar winds and radiation, the star factory known as Messier 17 lies some 5,500 light-years away in the nebula-rich constellation Sagittarius. At that distance, this degree wide field of view spans almost 100 light-years. The sharp, composite, color image utilizing data from space and ground based telescopes, follows faint details of the region's gas and dust clouds against a backdrop of central Milky Way stars. Stellar winds and energetic light from hot, massive stars formed from M17's stock of cosmic gas and dust have slowly carved away at the remaining interstellar material producing the cavernous appearance and undulating shapes. M17 is also known as the Omega Nebula or the Swan Nebula.

The only thing I'm concerned about is to catch Star Trek's Into Darkness and for the Chinks to make a copy of the warp speed engine.

Cheers!

will the universe expand forever based on the big bang theory? or will the expansion deccelerate and come to a standstill, and subsequently contract and implode, leading to the next big bang?

The answer will be come when the "Theory of Everything" is solved. We'll then be able to simply plug in the parameters and the answer will pop out within seconds.

This thread is TOTALLY my cup of tea.

It jolts me out of my deep-trance hibernation.

Where is the spaceship?

When are we departing?

Let me know!!

I'm so ready!!

My 'unified theory of gambling' is about to be completed. You guys will likely find it published in: Econometrica, Journal of Finance or Journal of Financial Economics.

In a few years time, the Nobel guys will come knocking at my door ..... trying to offer me the prize.
