and is it moving in a straight line? This is assuming the big bang theory is accurate and that the centre of the universe is the site of the alleged big bang.

We probably need to know this before we begin time travelling.

Every night when am ready to sleep on my bed i just muse about weird things & i keep thinking of it till get sleep.
Last week i was just thinking that would invent a torch kind of thing which when switched on would give a black light kind of ray & would make things invisible when pointed on it. Exactly the vise versa of a normal torch. One can see things only when light falls on it & makes it visible to us.So if would inventa toech like this i would become famous.
Later when i was thinking about this matter i got to know that the only way to invent this is by putting a black hole in my torch & as soon as i switch it on it makes things invisible in front of me. However i know that the black hole does not emit any kind of rays but this was the only thought that came to my mind for its invention.After thinking so much i went to sleep.I know whatever i though was above my ken and impossible.
I still keep thinking of many weird things every night before i sleep.
Did you like my imagination?

Imagine that one day the human reach a degree of improvement such as they could destroy the universe. Perhaps that the extraterrestrial reached this level 15 billion years and caused a catastrophe by a bad technological handling. Do you believe it?

The Big Bang propels mass and energy outward. Let's say that the diameter of the universe is 1. I'll call this value the "universe unit". What would we see if jumped through space and we were out 100 universe units away? Would everything be pitch black except for a tiny pinpoint of light (which would be the entire universe from a great distance away)?

I saw a bright body in the sky tonight. It was in the western sky, slightly towards the north. It was a bit above the horizon, but not too high up in the sky either. It was the brightest star [or body] in the sky.

I'm in the Northern Hemisphere [New England]

Does anybody have any idea what I saw? Was it Saturn?

When John F. Kennedy said we would put a man on the moon, we were in a race with Russia to lead space exploration. Scientific advancement in this area was a metaphor for which nations idea of civilization was most beneficial to the human race. In my eyes, it would have been more than possible to fake a moon landing at that time. Since then, I have heard nothing about lunar exploration until Bush's state of the union where he stated we would be back on the moon in 10 years, and on mars in 25. I bring up none of the conspiracy theories, only ask why in the age we are in cannot obtain a goal any faster than the 60's.
