If a neutron is made up of densly packed neutrons...then what really happens when they collapse in a black hole? Do they create empty space somewhere else (another universe), or do they simply just break down to create quarks?

I have this problem for this science question. I know it may sound kinda dumb but still. Okay, you were going to the lighted surface of the moon ,but due to some difficulties you had to land at a spot some 200 miles away from the rendezvous point. Would you still be in space?
That's not really my question but I need the answer to organize somethings.

I know its all by means to believe that aliens exist from belief but I have read stories and seen videos of people video taping UFOs near the mountians. Some stories even said that people was abducted by aliens. Is it true that aliens may already be on the planet of Earth? Is there any signs of activities that can prove there might be aliens already here?

i'm writing a book where my characters travel through time.. i know time travel isn't possible now, but does anyone know the most plausible scientific theory of how it could be possible? i think i read something about a wormhole? i don't want to get all into a scientifc explanation in the book but i would like it to be a little less daft than magic.

Do they collide or merge to become bigger or, do they repel each other like magnets. Is there any proof of either? What happens to matter in theory when it enters a black hole.

I'm looking to buy my first telescope. I want one that would allow me to see way beyond the moon but under $500.00. Not too complicated but alot harder than just sticking my eye into the lens. I don't mind taking the time to learn about it. Could anyone help with a particular brand or brands?

There seems to be billions of anti-reason, anti-science wackos and bigots of all types on the planet. Wouldn't it be great if people could one day figure out a way to leave those people behind and build a better world elsewhere, even though this is just fantasy now?

Hello from Britain. I am starting to get interested in the night skies and would like to know more. What is the best book-or-internet resource for a beginner, which explains things nice and simply to start off with but progresses to more complex material once the fundamentals are grasped?

Also if I want to purchase a telescope, what should I look for, and avoid? I'd like a (reliable) budget model, one that is noice-friendly but will still serve me well as I get more serious.

What other basic equipment should I invest in?

Thanks!

Where is it?
If the planet had life there should be an abundance of evidence.
Take earth for example there is harldly a square inch of planet surface that is devoid of some life of some sort.
If life was was die out today and you came back in 500 million years you would find a wealth of evidence that life existed at one time.
Accept the fact there is no life on Mars no matter how much you wish to will it to be and how closely you search.
Wishful thinking.

If a black hole can suck up light. And we measured light at this spacific spot in the unavers. Why can't light go faster to the infanit the farther it moves from mass. Like the edg of the big bang.

I belive the speed of light is determind by the presince of mass and their is no exact answer. Can some one chang my thought.
