I always wondered to myself, what is outside space? outside of the planets, does it go on and on forever, or does it stop at some point? what it outside the space and galaxy? Doesnt this make you think? Maybe is there another world out there that we havent seen? You know how theres an area of planets and stuff? what is outside those walls? So you just passed Pluto on your spaceshuttle, and what if you decide to keep going, what will happen? is there something more out there that no one has found?

After all, space isn't a real vacuum. It has objects as big as the entire Universe in it (assuming there is only one universe) and physical objects as small as dust particles. In order to get anywhere in a practical timeframe, a ship would have to be able to travel at some large fraction of the speed of light (a problem I won't even raise here). Suppose you're going along at, say, half the speed of light and you run into a rock the size of a golf ball. It's good-bye spaceship isn't it? And at that speed, would it even be possible to detect and avoid such objects. Let's not even get into gamma ray bursts. While I, like all guys, love to fantasize about space travel, when I really think about it, it's pretty difficult to imagine being able to go any great distance without some sort of fatal catastrophe occurring. At least not without presupposing some kind of fanciful, "pie in the sky" solution like wormholes or "folding space."

I came across a line in the yahoo headlines stating that the brightest and biggest supernova ever witnessed by human civilization has many extraordinary traits, including that it did not form into a black hole... This doesn't make sense to me. Anybody have an explanation?

I'm looking at a Meade ETX 80 I think it is. It's got an AUTO object finder, meaning it actually moves by itself. It's got a tonight's best tour, and its $300. Anything with that kind of stuff for a little bit of a cheaper price?
