I am just trying to understand the "logic" or common sense of these statements. By the way, I was watching a show on "Discovery". I think I had heard the presenter say that there are whole galaxies "speeding faster than light" away from us? If that is true, how can one reconcile that with the principles of relativity?

(where C is some constant) In essence that is what I am saying. Zero in your equation is unachievable. Black holes are unachievable.

'Frame of reference' is the area in which a measurement is made. 'Medium' is just a word that describes the ability of an object to allow light to pass through it. Even a brick wall will allow low frequency radio waves to pass through it. Mathal

But you are just repeating/stating things and the "Science" you are using is beginning to look like faith-based system to me. C.G.

I'm sure there is, but it's bot part of our observable universe or causally connected.

There is lots of evidence for back holes. What's inside the event horizon is another matter. One thing for sure, Mathal, is that you need to understand the relativistic measurements are observer dependent! |
