There are some who look at this from the scientific view and say Big Bang. Others will say God created all. But if you look into it hard enough it starts to boggle your mind a little. Sometimes i think if God created all then what created God? Did He just appear one day in a huge empty space? If so then what created that space? Do you see what I am getting at? This goes for the big bang as well. People say that it was created by gases and dust all collecting together and exploding. But then what created these gases and dust? If they were created by different molecules and such then what created these molecules? Is it and infinite chain of creation? If so then was there ever a beginning? Sorry if this is a bit confusing but im sure some people will understand. TY

I know that we can't survive in a vacuum because we need the pressure of the atmosphere to survive. But what happens to us in space? How long could an astronaut survive outside the shuttle with no space suit?

I think I heard that we are in one of the spiral "arms" that radiate from the centre of the galaxy. Is this true? If so how were they able to come to that conclusion?

I hear there was a portion of the moon landing video that was only aired in europe before it was never to be shown again. Something about how neil armstrong was strongly suggestiong they abort mission because he "saw something" Anyone else hear this rumor or know where I can see it?

?????? i understand that their mass sorta hold the galaxy on its orbit, but if so, is it pulling everything in, even though we its not noticeable, should the galaxy really be falling inside, unlike the popular claim that the universe is expanding?

I read today that NASA is getting ready to send more people into space, but the article didn't elaborate a reason why. This seems to be the case quite a bit in my experience. Am I just not reading the right sources that can detail a reason, or are the reasons for space travel being kept under wraps?

in a strictly Newtonian system:

if GMM/d^2 gives the force of attraction between two sperical planetary masses (of homogenous density) the size and mass of the sun Ms, ether

prove,using integration or whatever, that the formula gives the force of attraction EXACTLY EVEN WHEN the two planets' surfaces are less than 1 inch apart
(i.e. regarding the masses as large spherical gas clouds almost touching each other)
OR
calculate the % difference in terms of their masses between the actual force of attraction and the force of attraction as approximated by GMM/d^2
when the two planets' surfaces are less than 1 inch apart.

if your answer contains the double integral of:

[density(r1)]. [density(r2)]. [dV1]. [ dV2] ... / (r1-r2)^2

explain how this can be integrated.
