If the strong nuclear force is carried by virtual fermions, they ought to be limited in range by the uncertainty principle. Can anybody calculate the maximum distance and tell me whether the decrease in strength with distance is abrupt at the end, or follows an inverse-square law, or whether some other kind of trailing off happens?

Last night the moon was bright orange. Why does the moon sometimes look orange? I have noticed that it usually does this when it is low on the horizon and full.

I've heard of a Transit of Earth from Mars and a transit of Mars from Jupiter, but How come I never hear of a transit of Mars from Earth? Yes, I know that Earth is closer to the Sun than Mars, but I'm talking about when Mars is blocked out from Earth by the Sun. How come no one ever predicts that...

Gasoline, also called petrol, is a petroleum-derived liquid mixture consisting primarily of hydrocarbons and enhanced with benzenes to increase octane ratings.
In chemistry, a hydrocarbon is any chemical compound that consists only of the elements carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). They all contain a carbon backbone, called a carbon skeleton, and have hydrogen atoms attached to that backbone. (Often the term is used as a shortened form of the term aliphatic hydrocarbon.) Most hydrocarbons are combustible.

WHY CANT WE MAKE FAKE GAS, I KNOW WE HAVE SIMULAR STUFF TO IT...BUT NOT FAKE GASOLINE, OIUR CARS WILL NEVER KNOW THE DIFFERANCE
