GRB 060218 occurred in a star-forming galaxy about 440 million light-years away towards the constellation Aries, making it the second-closest supernova ever detected. The closest was SN 1987A, which went off about 165,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a nearby dwarf galaxy.

Does this mean that this supernova happenned 440 million light years ago and this may not be the current event?

With all the evidence provided by remnants of creatures long dead(fossils) and the similarities between these creatures and those of today, how can evolution be considered a theory? Surely it should be considered a fact.

Is it simply the idea that humans evolved from primates that offends people?

Sure I can write it down, but then again I can write down Hairy Puke-filled dinosaur **** and that doesn't mean THAT exists.

So the number 227, is it just a myth? Has any one actually ever come across this number in real life? What mind boggling complex calculus can you use to prove to me that it isn't just a figment of our imaginations (like the said dinosaur's handbag that I just made up)

i.e. i stand next to a source of light emitting a steady stream of photons.now i start moving in the same direction at a greater velocity than light,and keep accelerating.as i overtake each photon,i see a bit of what is'past'.i.e,i travel back in time in a way. but is there any case where my time frame would be reversed?where i get younger,so to speak?
