Space - Much Todo About Nothing



-   2074 -   Much Todo About Nothing.  -  There is much more Nothing in this world then there is Something.  The Universe is 74% empty space.  Even matter which is something  made of atoms and  99% of atoms is empty space.  Black Holes are the opposites of Nothing. To learn more about nothing:

-  ------------------------------------  2074  Much Todo About Nothing
-
-  There is much more Nothing in this world then there is Something.  By the world I mean the Universe.  It is 74% empty space.  However, science is now studying empty space and calling it Dark Energy because it appears empty space , or Nothing, still contains repulsive energy, or anti-gravity. And, that is something but, we don't know what it is?
-
-  If you call what you cannot see Nothing then another 22% of the Universe is Nothing called Dark Matter which we also cannot see.  Only 4% is left that we can see and we call it matter. 
-
-  But even matter which is something  made of atoms and 99% of atoms is empty space as well.  We think matter is solid but it really isn’t.  It is really very small sub-atomic particles held together by electromagnetic and nuclear forces.  It is the electromagnetic forces in the floor and in your feet that are holding you up, not the particles in the floor or in your feet.  “Nothing” is keeping you from falling to the center of the Earth.
-
-  The Universe is expanding very rapidly which means more Nothing is being created all the time at an even more rapid rate.  This discovery that the Universe is expanding at an ever accelerating rate is the most important astronomical discovery in this century.  Someone else got the idea first.
-
-  Dark Matter which we cannot see still has weight.  About one pound of Dark Matter exists in every cube of empty space 250,000 miles on a side.
-
-  In Nothing, empty space, there is total silence.  Sound cannot travel through nothing.  It needs a medium to vibrate in order for sound to exist.  However, electromagnetic waves need no medium to travel through.  They can pass right through Nothing.  Light can travel through a vacuum.  In fact it always moves at 186,000 miles / second through a vacuum.  It travels slower through all other medium.
-
-  Black Holes are the opposites of Nothing.  They are the densest concentrations of mass known in the Universe.
-
-  Nothing was first written down in 300 B.C.  But, zero, was not defined as a mathematical concept until 500 A.D. in India.  If you divide any number by zero it becomes mathematically impossible.  Anything divided by Nothing is infinity which math cannot handle.
-
-  Art and paintings did not discover the vanishing point to nothing until 1500.  Then, artists used the vanishing point of parallel lines to give their art 3- dimension.
-
-  Vacuums do not suck.  Vacuums are simply empty space whereby surrounding pressures can push things into.
--
- Was the Universe created out of Nothing?  Current theories suggest that the Universe was created out of only "vacuum energy".  That is the energy that resides in Nothing.  If you are a physicists or an astronomer there is no such thing as Nothing.  Even empty space is filled with particles and anti-particles.
-
-   These particles vibrate in and out of existence, annihilating each other in 10^-25 seconds.  These virtual particles, jumping in and out of existence, are what create  Dark Energy.  And, according to quantum mechanics equations, the amount of energy in empty space is enormous. Like 1 followed by 120 zeros. -  Have you ever noticed that the more zeros, or nothings, behind a number the bigger it gets.
-  Physics defines a vacuum as a physical state totally devoid of particles, either particles of matter or photons of radiation.  Such a vacuum does not exist in practice.  The first vacuums of sorts were produced in 1838 when Faraday tried to pass electric current through a vacuumed vessel.
-
-  The effects of matter and repulsive anti-gravity force of Dark Energy shape space.  So, this is strange, astronomers are arguing over the shape of Nothing.  Depending on the quantities of these attributes in the Universe the shape of Nothing is either flat, spherical or hyperbolical (saddle shaped). 
-
-  The shape is defined by the behavior of parallel lines.  If the parallel lines stay parallel no matter how far they extend into space then space is flat.  If they eventually cross, or intersect, then space is spherical.  If they diverge, continually getting farther apart, than space is hyperbolic in shape.
-
-  In 1950 space was just thought of as everything above the Earth’s atmosphere.  That is when the Space Age began.  In 1883 a Russian was the first to determine that a rocket could operate in space.  It was 1926 when the first rocket was launched to prove he was right.  Of course, everyone remembers 1957 when Sputnik became the first satellite to be launched into space.  In 1961 the first human was launched into space, Yuri Gargarin.  In 1962  John Glenn was the first American to complete an orbit circling the Earth in space.
-
In 1923 Louis De  Broglie took Einstein’s E=mc^2 and Planck’s E=hf and concluded that all particles are also waves.  Called the wave-particle duality.  If all particles are waves and waves are Nothing then Everything is Nothing.
-
- If that’s true why even bother about anything because it is Nothing after all.  The last 4% of the Universe are particles and they are waves, nothing is left.

-   (2)  Energy = 90,000,000,000,000,000 meters^2/seconds^2 * Mass in kilograms
-
-   Energy = 6.625 * 10^-34 kilograms * meters^2/second * frequency in cycles per second.
-
-  Wavelength = 6.625 * 10^-34 kilograms * meters^2/second  / Mass * velocity
             w = h / momentum.  If velocity = c, then mc^2 = h * f,
-
-           mass = 2.21*10^-52 kilograms / wavelength.  That is massless in my book.
