I never thought I would see my love of space and Microwave combined. This is awesome

I feel the same! Geeking out

@@danielleswingle7959 These comments make us happier than you know. We're so glad we found you in this very unexpected venn diagram of Microwave and the cosmos.

The density quoted is ridiculous. Given that reading, how much more is worth hearing. I'm giving up on it halfway through.

Artists have known this and explore it as negative space. A couple of examples: Non sites (Robert Smithson); Emily Dickinson (“Nothing is the force/That renovates the world”)

Thanks for these parallels. What else 🤔?

Forgetting the affect of electromagnetic is one greatest wrongs of astronomy.

10-15 GRAMS per cubic centimeter? Did I hear that right? in Interstellar space? That can't be right...that is 10-15 times as dense as liquid water! Oh, i bet it was supposed to be 1 x e-15 grams (or 10^-15). Yes, that makes more sense. In the transcript, it would look like 10-15 grams. So should be read as "ten to the negative fifteenth grams per cubic centimeter", "ten to the negative twenty-nineth grams per cubic centimeter", etc. Now THAT is pretty dang empty!

Microwave! But for real nothingness literally necessitates numerical existence.😊
