didn't work.

i understand the basic idea... which i explained in my original post. but all i'm saying is that **** sounds sketchy to me. you're relying on the assumption that your initial mathematical models are correct. the whole point of science is that the models are supposed to be born out in reality/the patterns we observe. and then when they don't seem correct.... ****in dark matter? nah man i don't trust that dark matter ****.

Interesting article thanks dude. I think both sides are reasonable tbh. Space is full of unknowns so why can't there be some unique space condition that requires separate or new calculations? Those calculations were accurate to the best of our observable knowledge prior to this dark matter issue. I get what your saying and think its cool they are looking into alternative explanations. Have you looked at the virial theorem? Its very simple.

i dunno that much about physics but my understanding is the calculations in question mostly regard "weighing" solar systems and other parts of the universe. which, when we became technically proficient enough to do so, the results didn't conform with the observable mass we can currently detect. so i don't even really know what you mean by "the calculations were accurate until the dark matter issue."

i'll grant that the general mathematical models of the universe seemed to produce accurate results when observing other phenomena. but then again newton's model seemed more or less flawless before einstein. and ptolemy's model of the solar system also worked fine until copernicus.

funny thing is though i don't honestly really have a stance against dark matter/dark energy i was being sort of facetious. could be true, the **** do i know about physics? my overall point was that we basically take these scientists at their word just cause they're like way smarter than us. and by we i mean you. which makes me wonder why you people don't just blindly accept everything i say like you should do

Dude, you never cease to amaze me. In good ways and bad ways.

That's all that I meant.

Nothing can move through space faster than light.
Space itself can do whatever the **** it wants to.

sounds like illuminati bull**** if you ask me.

Star Trek already proved you wrong.

What if you were traveling at the speed of light, and you shined a light in the direction you are heading?
