Lets Talk About Things Science Cannot Explain

I thought the problem with FTL was that an object approaches the speed of light it gains mass. At the speed of light of attains infinite mass.

 

[Cathbad]

The group I spoke about found they had only "came close" to the speed of light. There was no mass gain.

Really? I'd thought that had been confirmed a long time ago. Isn't that what the particle accelerators are proving?

 

[Cathbad]

They sent only a particle, but their report made no mention of mass gain. And they came so close to light speed, they originally thought they'd surpassed it.

I believe I've found the article.

Faster Than Light Particles Found

Faster Than Light Particles Found

Sounds a bit like the film Interstellar.

Didn't see it.

 

[BAYLOR]

Didn't see it.

Its an interesting film.

I believe that subsequent measurements found errors in the recording equipment that gave false results.

I seem to remember that it's been discussed elsewhere on Chrons.

Exactly. It had only came close to the speed of light.

Sorry, Cathbad I misunderstood. I'll read more.

How small objects (eg. pens, nuts, washers) I've set down on some convenient surface tend to vanish the moment I take my eye off of them, never to be seen again. Could I get a grant to study this?

Or teach the cat to stay off the counter.

There a planet connected by tiny worm holes that only open for a femto second. The pens achieve sentience. I've used all the ink in a ballpoint pen maybe twice in 50 years? It feels like that.

My friend TJ is looking over my shoulder mumbling something about "yankee professors".

Sure, if you want to get all cozy with the pilot, a member of the a sluglike species having having "as much sex appeal as a road accident,"

and all I have to say to that is Crash by J G Ballard

Our inability to see that Global Warming is not a figment of out imagination.

I haven't gone through all 10 pages of this thread to check it out but on the off chance no one has mentioned it yet I'd nominate what is called in quantum circles Spooky Action At A Distance.

 

[J Riff]

SAAAD... but true?

 

[Ray McCarthy]

Spooky Action At A Distance

But most of the media reports are wrong
