For example:
Consider that I have travelled to UK from INDIA ( UK is 5:30 hrs behind Indian time -IST).
When I am travelling back from UK, due to day light saving UK clock is now 4:40 hrs behind IST.
So did I loose 1 hour in my life as time zones are not compensated due to day light saving>

What multiverse? Can intelligent civilizations survive?

What's the scientific theory of the multiverse?

Is our universe infinite? Will it always be able to support life in some form or another? Could an intelligent civilization survive on a cosmic scale and survive the "death" of the universe?

Oh, the tough questions! To be human is to question!

Does a 50mm telescopic gunsight with a 30mm tube transmit more light than one with a 1 inch tube?

For those that dont know specifically about gunsights, there is a varietry of lense sizes from 20 to 80mm. each is available with a 1 inch or a 30mm tube between them forming the structure of the sight. The 30mm versions are more expensive.
Because this tube becomes part of the reciever structure, I can see that bigger is better, also more room for evevation setting, but is it brighter.
On an air rifle or a well made 22rimfire, for example, the rigidity and adjustment are not relevant. Would I be wasting my mony buying a 30 mm version.
I have herd all sorts of opinions in the past. I would love an answer from someone who could put some solid theory to this question.
