It has been over 788,000 years since the last event which should occur approximately every 500,000 years, so it is way overdue. ("soon" in astronomic timescale).

When there have been so many great scientists such as Maxwell, Bohr, Ampere, Rutherford not to mention the greatest in my opinion Newton and Edison, why is Einstein given so much prominence.

Doesn't the fact that only half the people ,who say einstein is the greatest scientist ever, actually know the names of his theories and that even smaller number of them know actually what they mean, show the sheepish nature of human beings?

I'm Australian, and I feel we have lost a great ambassador for the country. In typical style, a few Australians are blaming him for the accident, saying he got what he deserved. Me, I think they shout keep their opinions to themselves.

I feel most pain for his little girl and boy. RIP Steve

The answers can best be obtained from the scope of agricultural science, and around twenty good answers are expected, as regards this question.The question simply is asking for the importances of the knowledge of soil science to the department of agribusiness management,concerned with marketing agricultural produce. For example, the knowledge of soil science tell us that in the soil are micro-organisms which aerate the soil, promoting vigorous plant growth, whose products are marketed by the agribusiness department and this boosts the sector of the agribusiness management, promoting it.

Is it because of the gravity? If it is gravity why is the star luminous? If gravity is pulling the light, why isn't it a black hole already?

Please no rude answers, thanks!

Well I know we shouldn't reopen old debates but I feel conflict is always agreeable.

Someone told me this fact and I'm not sure to believe it.

Does it mean that they can eat hay but cannot digest it or what?

Why can't they?

Why can cows, horses, guinea pigs etc eat it but not deer?
