I mean, really, that's a lot of money that could've cured a major disease or something of that importance! What a waste...

I researched an astronomer email server where all the astronomers link up to email one another to talk important buisness. 15 emails were related to a fact that was written on the exact subject " They made a rush decision on the last day of IAU meetings " Stating the fact " astronomers were in Prague , Paris and had been there for over 2 weeks and the Pluto vote was a rush desition because it was1 hour before meetings were adjurned and they were anxious to leave & travel back home. so they rushed the vote "

Some emails said " They should've talked over their facts & voted sensibly on it "

One astronomers email said " They rushed so quickly to get it done they accidently described Earth not a definition as a planet "


Do you think they made a rush decision on the last day ?

A set of twins. One boards a space ship traveling near the speed of light. He returns to earth and finds his twin brother has aged more than he. Time dialation, got it.

It takes light from a star 4 billion light years away 4 billion years to reach earth, thus we are looking back into time the way the star was 4 billion years ago. But are we really? Does light from stars go through time dialation? Does the star 4 billion light years away really appear to us the way it looked 4 billion years ago? Or is it more like 2 billion years ago? Is the star aging slower because it, or the light from it, is traveling so fast? I assume, given the fact that stars/galaxies experience redshift, that they are moving at a speed comparable to the speed of light and are thus subject to extreme cases of time dialation like those expressed in the twin paradox.

Could this too then mean that every other star could essentially appear to live longer than our Sun because they're traveling so fast?

my version :

the nature of god...
the god or gods are around all the time...
( with your mind)
if your reach out a god will reach out to touch you.
most of the time a god wouldent touch you if you dident reach out. ( with your mind) and soul
it can be one is open like this ...
but true belief makes you stronger.
if you did you would find most days the god in question is like the wind , The answers provided where progressions of happening ...
if you actualy ask a question the answer can be in words sometimes your own , you will suddenly reflect on something you already know .. this is the answer say thanks
