This really should be one of the biggest stories in modern history...

As per usual
Come home from work, sit, put TV on…..utter utter crap, so head straight over to YouTube!!
Just been watching Brian Cox video regarding space inception. I always always head to the comments as I often find others views broaden my own views.

Just been thinking….
The constant phrase of “ law of physics “ “ Time “ yet these are both created by humans, humans didn’t create space, so what gives us the right to assume our VERY limited (tunnelled) views can be used to explain what space is?

From the moment we are born we are told the numbers for counting, told that grass is green, oranges are orange, etc etc so from the outset our intelligence is compromised based on what we are told are facts to be used to build on.

I’ve often wondered, if (hypothetically) we decided to bore a hole straight through the earth, let’s say for arguments sake North Pole straight down ( or up??) to South Pole. - It’s all hypothetical!! - Straight through the earths core.

So, we jump feet first down through the tube….would we pop out the other end feet first? Would we be stuck in the centre and both directions would “appear” uphill? Would the earth stop spinning as gravity found its way into the tube??

I once asked this question to a uni student studying physics… he couldn’t say what he thought would happen.

Sorry for detailing the thread.

I have had that exact same thought from being quite young . I would love for that to be possible to try .

Brilliant.
We only know what we've been taught or proven as a human race and a lot of people are too big headed to allow any other thought.

Again, everyone is assuming that life can only exist in conditions the exact same as Earth. There is no such thing as a habitable zone, this is just a figment of a human beings imagination. You have assumed wrong. There could be planets where living creatures breath carbon dioxide not oxygen, there could be planets where living creatures breath methane and not oxygen. Nature finds a way just like it did here. To assume there is only one mechanism in existance that supports life is not only naive, it's insanity.

You are very right here but i think he means habitable for us oxygen breathers.
 
We can say without proof that its highly probable theres life out there. its simple maths. Using the Milky Way as our model, we can multiply the number of stars "suns"in a typical galaxy (100 billion) by the number of galaxies in the universe (2 trillion). The answer is an absolutely astounding number. So 2 Trillion galaxy's times 100 billion and theres the figure for all the suns out there in our universe. in text 1 billion is 1,000,000,000 thats just 1 :oops: "100 million". i'm no genius but with a figure that big theres no way we are alone in the universe.

The 'laws' of physics are not created by man they are simply a way of explaining things that happen and would continue to happen in exactly the same way whether there was a 'law' or not. These 'laws' are modified if our understanding changes. We can only explain things in terms that we are familiar with, scientists will try to understand anomalies with new theories which they then work to prove or disprove, it's how mankind has progressed.

Numbers and colours etc are simply labels which are used so that people will understand when something is described to them somost people will be able to visualise a group of three purple tomatoes. If you had been taught that the citrus fruit commonly known as an orange was coloured xxyxx it would still taste, smell, look and feel exactly the same to you as it would to someone wearing a blindfold. Now it IS a fact that a film was made about an alien which became known as ET but the existence of that fact does not mean or imply that such a being exists. Most people can easily distinguish betwen fact, fiction or fantasy and probably don't concern themselves too much with the mysteries of the univers
Boring a hole through the earth from one side to another is a theme of science fiction. An object dropped into such a hole would accelerate until reaching the mid point and would the decelerate until reaching the surface on the other side and repeat, a case of simple harmonic motion. Theoretically there might be complications regarding the centre point around whether it is geometrically the centre or the centre of mass which I think is probably where maximum gravitational force is situated. However due to the extremely high temperature in the earth's core anything, at present, doing this would be vapourised. Of course deep holes are likely to prove a useful source of heat energy and may well be utilised for this in the near future.
Unfortunately worrying too much about things like this is likely to give you a headache.
 
This would be one the 'Biggest Stories in Modern History' if there were actually any truth in it. Guess we'll have to wait a bit longer.

The US government wouldn't be running hearings on it if there was no truth to it.
 
ChrisLX200 said:
Yes they would, and you are presuming the outcome of any findings.

The outcome will be nothing, I'm aware of that.

However the fact that the US congress has had secret pentagon briefings over UFO/UAP's and now they are running hearings on whistle blower claims (which carry a prison sentence if the said whistle blower is lying) is huge.

The US governments public position has moved from "nothing is going on" to publicly stating they cannot explain these things and releasing multiple pieces of footage that shows aircraft doing things that no human aircraft can do. And this is the worlds #1 military power saying this.

There is something going on, attitudes are changing.
 
If there is any sort of disclosure It'll probably go something like this; "Yes we have in our possession craft that aren't made by humans, yes we have remains that aren't human, and due to national security we cannot divulge any further information.", and that'll be that, a dead end. Book closed.

Harry Reid (US senator for Nevada) openly said a few years ago that lockheed martin were reverse engineering alien alloys.

Would still open up our entire universe to the fact aliens are out there flying around the cosmos in spaceships.

Yeah right. That makes it true then.
Government wheels are oiled by secret meetings but sometimes they like to have hearings just show they have nothing to hide - especially when they know there is nothing to be found out. It just makes them look good. If there was anything in it they wouldn't hold hearings.
