<0> woah
<0> Hawkings is 64 years old, he doesn't look a day over 40 ;)
<1> i know, isn't that wild?
<1> it must have to do with the disease he sas
<0> hehe
<1> is it MS?
<0> notor neurone disease
<0> which i think is MS
<0> motor neurone disease
<1> ah inability to tell muscles to move
<1> be like 'god damnit muscles, i just told you to handle yo **** wtf
<0> The motor neurone diseases (MND) are a group of progressive neurological disorders that destroy motor neurones, the cells that control voluntary muscle activity such as speaking, walking, breathing, and swallowing. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), sometimes called Lou Gehrig's disease, progressive muscular atrophy (PMA), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), progressive or pseudo-bulbar palsy (PBP) and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) are al
<0> i think they should rename it to "Hawkings disease"
<1> i agree
<1> he's made huge contributions to astrophysics
<0> its going to be a sad day when he is gone
<1> we should get something official together and submit it to the naming comittee
<0> i think we would have an easier time after he is gone
<1> someone (like me) can draft an open letter and then everyone else can just print it and mail it
<1> sends a powerful message, a la FSM
<2> I read brief history and another of his books for the first time in the 80's
<1> his simplistic approach of quantum theory is really easy to understand
<2> read them several more times including listening to them on tapes trying to raise my level of understanding from 1% to 1.1%
<1> i believe he was the one who theorized black holes
<2> and I remember first learning about black holes from that
<1> haha rond, good effort.. it takes some control to do that
<0> i was watching a show on Science channel yesterday that explained that every galaxy has a black hole at its center
<0> i was like WOAH!
<1> ok so it was hawkins, good
<2> was just about to say that rusty saw the same thing
<2> so
<3> Abusive Domain or User
<1> is this a split or a 9am take over?
<2> in my adult life time the understanding has gone from there is this potential concept of a black hole to every galaxy has one and its a fundamental building block of the universe
<0> its the 9am dweeb flood
<1> oh disregard that msg then
<4> It's summer, the script kiddies are out in force.
<0> i also like Dr. Michio Kaku
<5> fisher: someone removed +i
<1> irc is much different than when i first got on which is when bots were first coming around, i dont remember complex bot networks running the channels.. it used to be us running the channels and bots used for trivia haha
<2> and further more the the point of we know exactly where our own black hole and we are now collecting data to see how its changing and it is
<0> hehe
<6> hi
<5> ergh
<1> Hemi, well blackholes are a result of a decayed imploded stars so if there was a planetary clump around an imploded star, then there ya go
<5> just put +i back
<5> :P
<1> but a blackhole isn't hidiing behind pluto or anything.. it becomes the replacement of the sun
<2> Fisher no thats not how they work at all
<6> atleast I got in
<6> thanks rusty :)
<0> fisher they were talking about Super M***ive Blackholes
<2> at least according to the docu Rusty and I are talking about
<1> i'm pretty sure blackholes are results of imploded suns
<2> nope
<1> give me a moment
<0> where many stars collide with each other to form a HUGE HUGE blackhole
<2> Nope
<2> :)
<2> black holes are the beginning of a galaxy
<5> hasn't that been the consensus since like the dawn of time, that when a star with enough m*** collapses it forms a black hole?
<2> Nope
<1> here's the article im reading now: http://cosmology.berkeley.edu/Education/BHfaq.html#q1
<2> well yes that has been the understanding but according to this docu
<1> we'll see if i'm wrongo
<2> it has changed
<5> as in the general consensus among scientists has changed?
<0> The active galaxies appear to require a compact energy source of enormous strength. The most plausible candidate is a rotating, superm***ive black hole of order a billion solar m***es at their center.
<6> stars/suns
<6> lol
<2> if I understood this docu yes
<2> a black hole forms from stellar gases beginning to collect and swarm
<2> that swarming heats up
<2> to over a million degrees
<0> http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr162/lect/active/smblack.html
<2> then stars begin to form and explode out from those heated gases
<6> say this 10 times fast: The red ant went into the black ant hole. The black ant went into the red ant hole.
<2> a galaxxy is being born from around the event horizon
<0> so basically its not just one sun, its billions
<2> yes
<2> as the galaxy builds through the millenia
<2> it at some point becomes so bigg
<2> its forces against the black hole in the center are great enough
<2> to stop the heating in the middle
<2> and the suns stop being born
<1> see? These researchers showed that when a sufficiently m***ive star runs out of fuel, it is unable to support itself against its own gravitational pull, and it should collapse into a black hole.
<2> Well the docu really surprised me because I have not paid much attention to all of this in years
<1> thats from berkley
<1> its ok, i wanna keep reading hold on
<2> but as I understood it this is the latest thinking
<0> then they went into M theory and the 11th dimension
<0> i was like daaaayyyyuuumn
<0> and possibly paralell universes
<1> haha "In general relativity, gravity is a manifestation of the curvature of spacetime. M***ive objects distort space and time, so that the usual rules of geometry don't apply anymore. Near a black hole, this distortion of space is extremely severe and causes black holes to have some very strange properties. In particular, a black hole has something called an 'event horizon.'
<1> This is a spherical surface that marks the boundary of the black hole. You can p*** in through the horizon, but you can't get back out. In fact, once you've crossed the horizon, you're doomed to move inexorably closer and closer to the 'singularity' at the center of the black hole.
<0> i wished i was good enough at math to be able to write out the equations and formulaes these guys do
<1> doomed haha
<2> well were not really sure what does go on on the other side of the event horizon
<0> yeap, and they still don't know what a singularity is
<0> what it is, what it does, how it exists...
<1> and singularity conjurs up images of this perfectly round ball of m*** in the absolute center of the black hole where everything - tooth picks, donkeys, space dust, light, everything - has been forced into this one m*** ball under all the gravity
<1> i dont wanna become part of any singularity right now, thanks
<1> maybe thats where they got the idea for that movie sphere
<7> hm
<7> hawkins said we soon will find out orgin of the earth
<0> see i don't get that
<1> gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-g-punit
<0> a star "implodes" on itself
<0> i thought stars were made of iron
<1> um we have earth origin theory
<3> Abusive Domain or User
<0> basically i don't get how something solid could collapse on itself heh
<1> here's your answer: http://www.bnsc.gov.uk/lzcontent.aspx?nid=4735
<0> ahhhhhhhhhh
<0> ok, i get it now+)
<1> i always thought gravity was a function of the m*** related to it, i.e. something without m*** can't have gravity
<1> and this thing sounds like the opposite of m***
<1> it's a bubble of ever ****age
<0> i always thought gravity was relative to velocity and m***
<0> brb
<1> physics is my next educational venture so give me a few months and well discuss
<1> wow thats really cool, hemi.. they sayd the gases stay together bc they're compressed by gravity.. which is why it can stay at 15 million kelvin
<0> Fisher yeh the compression of the g***es
<8> http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/06/060614-butterfly.html
<9> Don't.
<10> man there must be one bored homo***ual out there in IRC land
<11> http://historyofscientology.ytmnd.com/
<12> thats pretty amusing
<12> i mean, if they really wanted to take the channel, why not just packet everyone here for hours on end
<9> They can't take the channel. They **** far too much to do that.
<9> Their goal is to shut down the channel, but they pretty much **** too bad to even do that.
<12> that makes sense
<12> they dont seem really skilled int hat
<0> its a matter of perserverance
<7> how does hawkin right books
<7> if he can't even speak
<7> how does hawkin get work done
<9> Argh. ****ing bots.
<0> we are more insistent on staying here, than they are in shutting the channel down hehe
