I have these dreams that feel more like memories of a past life. Where we are fleeing a big giant planet with rings. And to get to the the little blue dot, we have to go through all these "rocks" and we lost alot of people and ships. There's way more to the story, I could write a book, that's how much details are im these dreams/memories. And the odd thing is, what they want to do with Mars is what we did to Earth. We eventually grew trees, and grass etc.... Which eventually made it possible to breathe. Plus our bodies mutated to survive and thrive. Watching this video just blew my mind. Everyone talks about how we are young but to me we are ancient and our history was lost because we had to leave so abruptly and Earth was super harsh at first, kinda like Mars and it took so long to become what it is today. Please try to be kind in the posts and comments. Just saying anything is possible and who knows maybe oneday we will all be on Mars and our history of Earth will be long gone. Especially when the sun expands. Anyways never really talked about my dreams/memories, scared to be teased and laughed at. But think about how old the universe is? Do you really think we are to young to have other life out there or is it that we are really ancient and times have changed. There is a fact that there are people out there who have had kinda the same thing as me. To me it's interesting. I think we have it all wrong. We aren't the babies they say we are. We are ancient and just evolved to what we are today. Who knows, anything is possible. And when I say dreams, they really aren't dreams. And it's consent. Especially lately. Just think about it, would explain why we really dunno where we came from. Make sense that we have lost our way. Anything is possible. I also have another theory. Whatever we did to ruin the other planet we were punished by a higher being. And Earth is a prison planet. We are stuck in this galaxy for whatever we did that was so horrific. Hence why we can't leave it. I have alot more to say but here is not the place. But seriously open your mind everyone, socmich is possible. If we really can't find proof here on Earth maybe it's cause rheyvsibr want us to know who we are and where we came from. Or it was lost many many many years ago.

[@9899013543]

It would have made no difference to Newton as he relied more on observation. Einstein's proposition could not be observed during those times

[@egonieser]

Not much. Science back then was based on observation and speculation more than hard maths and calculations. Both Einstein and Newton would hardly comprehend the complexities of modern day physics nor would acknowledge it. Einstein probably would, in time when he's cought up with a century of scientific advances (which have advanced more in last 3 decades than previous millenia of human history combined), but Newton's time is far too distant. While humanity might seem to be going backwards in many aspects, in science and technology we are making unprecedented strides at such extreme pace that one year equates to decades if not centuries of historical advances. Computers have accelerated science, physics, technology and general understanding of most things thousandfold. But credit must be given to the aforementioned founding fathers of the concepts. Their theories, while heavily flawed, did kickstart it all but they would not be considered geniuses by modern standards as even a mere college student studying physics has a much deeper and comprehensive knowledge of how things work than einstein and newton combined. Anyway, rambling aside, my point was. The further back in time you go, there's less chances of convincing anyone that they are wrong as they have very limited understanding of the world so Newton would look at Einstein like he's some deranged madman spouting things and words he's never heard of.

[@garethbaus5471]

If you were an immortal being of unimaginable power, eternally alone among an infinite dimensional cosmos; their's only one thing I could think of that it would want to do. Forget. I came up with this theory during one of my grand maul seizures. During the time that I was visibly having the seizure, I was so nowhere else. This place I was, I decided to call "The Void". And their was no imaginable hell that I could mortally conjure that could compare to its eternity of catastrophe consisting of only one thing, dark. The 3 times I experienced going to this place, I would wake up from my seizure extremely depressed and crying as the lingering nature of this place left a trace for a short time. In this place, their was no remembering, and no anticipating, because their was no time. I assume the notion of my mortal mind grasping this existence of this place, is what felt so terribly wrong. When I was there, all I could think was, "The worst hell that man could think of wouldn't even matter to this place." Mans hell is an atom sized existence compared to this infinite void. In the moment of being there, I would gladly except mans version of hell, just to be *somewhere*. Here, existing on Earth, the idea that "we are all connected", is beautiful. But the foundation of that idea means, we are on being, completely alone. And in the void, you grasp that idea. So I think that we/us found a way to "dream" in the void. And the entire universe, is the creation of that dream. And we made it in a way, to make sure we/us, would *NEVER* discover why we made it. And that's the reason why some experiments almost seem to fight against us when yielding a result. Because while we try and find out why, we/us made sure we never would.

Think of space as a self sealing tire or a fabric that wants to stay together, matter puts a hole in that fabric, what we call gravity is space's attempt to rush in to patch that hole, to obtain cohesiveness/equilibrium. Gravity doesn't seem to affect the sub atomic particles like it does big stuff because fundamental particles are closest to the size of what space fabric is made of so their bond is super strong because space fabric has a much smaller hole to patch.

[@mulletmann6558]

im thinking more like "how" than "why" the why is simple...complicated as shit as to how it happened, but put simply as shit: molecules form more and more intricate strands, which end up creating life which is just a set of instructions on survival. conciousness is merely an illusion, everybody always chooses the best option they can come up with. the randomness is due to the way atoms/molecules work subatomically and build structures. also perception plays a KEY role in all of this, once we get to the stage where we can percieve what our actions will accomplish and what might be the repercussions then the best option becomes more and more ambiguous and based off of past experience more than anything. *EDIT* a good example would be the way molecules form and once formed continue to try to do so because it can guarantee the safety of the atom by being sandwiched in between a cushion of more atoms. almost like they have a form of memory as well.

I have a theory... I call it super organism theory. It's basically a theory of everything and deals mainly with the behavior of the universe and consciousness. I believe that consciousness arises from a field and that all matter is somehow aware, even though it may not be awareness as we know it. I think of it as nature doing nature... As nature tends to play with designs and patterns... Complex interactions of particles and the energies that arise from said interactions. If the universe was not intelligent to begin with then it would simply not have created eyes for which to observe it's self.

The common denominator and the foundation of/for existence... that being matter, mass, electromagnetism and gravity is 'energy.' You need ground-zero; that which existence is sourced or manifests from. The ether that contains existence and the universe itself... that which it was born from. The only problem is figuring out what caused energy to change into the states required to bring existence into being in such a precise order and balance that made it possible for existence... well... to exist. Was it a random alignment or a caused alignment influence by the unknowable, or a force beyond 'energy.' Will humanity and the universe find the answer to who the 'Watchmaker' is?

4:20 "the Four Forces... gravity, electromagnetism, the weak nuclear force and the strong nuclear force." Not so fast there! It's only: the electroweak force and the color/quark force, with gravity being more akin to a warped form of the law of inertia, itself, more so than a force. So they're only 2 ... or 3 depending on whether you count gravity as one of them. But there's also a *fourth* force (or "fifth" by your account) that's essentially been discovered or confirmed in 2021. It'll come to be known as the "brightness" force, because of its close relation to the color force, because it is almost certainly the one which has B-L as its charge (baryon number minus lepton number) ... as B-L is the only *other* force charge allowed for and consistent with the Standard Model. By The Sherlock Holmes Principle (when all else is excluded, whatever is left - no matter how likely or not - must be it), that additional force must be the Brightness Force. The question of who gets to be called "warped inertia" versus a mere "force" is the Equivalence Principle, which gravity satisfies ... but which (itself) does not really sit well with quantum theory. So, there is also the largely unresolved question - an area of active research - on just what the quantum version (if any) of the Equivalence Principle is. The B-L force has been discussed in the physics literature since at least the 1970's, in part because of the quirkiness and total asymmetry of the electroweak force: electroweak (among other things) is not left-right symmetric. Of its 4 modes, the only left-right symmetric mode is also the only long-range one - electromagnetism, which is an odd mixture of the four *natural* modes of electroweak. The inclusion of B-L as an extra force sets the stage for the inclusion of an opposite-handed version of electroweak, expanding its 4 modes to 6 ... while probably expanding the 8 modes of the color force to 15. Those forces would be associated, respectively, with what are known as SO(4) and SO(6) symmetry (which respectively have 6 and 15 modes); while electroweak and color are associated, respectively, only with SU(2)xU(1) and SU(3) symmetry (4 and 8 modes respectively); the SU(2) (for the 3 modes of the "weak nuclear force") being a reduced version of SO(4), the SU(3) (for the "color" force) being a reduced version of SO(6), and that extra U(1) part of electroweak (the "hypercharge" force) being a mixing together of parts of SO(4) and SO(6). That extra U(1) part, by the way, is one of the above-mentioned oddities of the electroweak force. Like the SU(2) part of electroweak, it's not left-right symmetric, but it is also *not* the electromagnetic force (which is also a U(1) force). Instead, to get electromagnetism requires mixing up the hypercharge U(1) with part of SU(2) ... into a combination that *is* left-right symmetric. Brightness would be a U(1) force that is a part of SO(6), which when subtracted out from hypercharge in the right way, would yield a U(1) that *is* a part of SO(4) alone and could be the tip of the iceberg of an opposite-handed version of the electroweak SU(2) ... a second SU(2) ... raising the number of modes from 3+1 to 3+3; together fitting nice and snugly into SO(4). The electric charge would then be Brightness + equal parts from each of the SU(2)'s, giving rise to the left-right symmetric force of electromagnetism.
