    Ahhhhh' I agree with starboy, for once, you go starboy. About the wave thing anyway.

    the big fusion reactor in the sky

    Mars lost its gravity and therefore, its atmosphere.
    .
    Mars has gravity. What do you think is holding it together and keeping our space craft on the surface? .
    merlin writes...Super glue....? Mars has less mass (its smaller and less dense) therefore less gravity.

    What if this how black holes happen?
    The current theory for black hole formation is extreme gravitation. A star is a big nuclear fusion reactor. First generation stars use hydrogen to make helium and energy. When this rather large (it must be bigger than our own sun to make a BH) star uses up its H it falls in on itself crushing itself to a tiny "point " this is the singularity. it cant be seen because its gravity is so strong that light cannot escape. I abbreviated much of the star to hole sequence for brevity.


    And imagination is much more important than knowledge. Why? Knowledge can be had by learning, child like imagination is a gift from god/gid .

    Wisdom requires both.

    Mars lost its gravity and therefore, its atmosphere. If the planet stopped viberating, the ripples would stop. As the viberation slows down, the ripples would slow do

    merlin writes...Oh ,planets can and DO INDEED vibrate or “ring” ! Athena may have been speaking of the zodiac instead of actual physical ringing however depending on several factors planets vibrate after certain events. Imagination is a wonderful thing….

    BY STARBOY...It is evidence that Mars had a molten core at one time and it is also evidence that the core is no longer molten. The molten core of the earth allows volcanic activity, a magnetic field and of course plate tectonics.
    merlin writes...Yes, correct, but the magnetic field has nothing to do with gravity, as we understand it today. I suspect that the motions of the orbital perturbations of earth along with various other factors (which may include ringing!) instigate plate tectonic movements. Also these other events precipitate out gassing (volcanic activity) and many other geologic events.

    hey, i feel like I can add something here. It makes me feel good.

    Merlin is right. Gravity and magnetism are not related. When the big bang occured, four forces were created. Fist were the "weak force," the "strong force," and electromagnetism. I don't recal in what order. Then gravity finally showed up. This all happened in probably a fraction of a second, to our knowledge. Gravity is the weakest, I think followed by electromagnetism. Then weak force, and i can't actually recall what the weak force is, sorry. The strong force is the most powerful, but only effective in very closr proximity. For example the nucleus. It holds the protons and neutrons together.

    Sorry for the ramble, but it feels good to know something science. So, uh, yeah, Merlin was correct about the magnetism thing. The rest was just for your "gee wiz" collection. :)

    There's really on 3 forces now:

    electroweak, strong, and gravity.

    yes manned into existance

    By tman_ndsu08..There's really on 3 forces now:electroweak, strong, and gravity.


    Merlin writes..Ummm flip jackson was wrong and you have erred T man. There are in fact 4 forces, unless a new science fact theroy of the day has been dreamed up and yes manned into existance....; } > In addition to gravity, there are three of these: electromagnetic force and two forces that explain the properties of atomic nuclei, prosaically (commonly) called the strong and weak nuclear forces.

    I'm confused. What did I say wrong? Was it because I didn't mention that the weak force applied to atoms also? I couldn't remember its application.... You'll have to correct me Merlin.
    Although i will say I have never heard electroweak. I'm pretty sure there are four, though.

    Sorry, this part lost me. I think you mixed up your words. I thought you were saying we were both wrong.

    lesson- I will never enter the science forum again. And if my memory we better, I would completely avoid some of the posters any where too. In fact may be finding another fourm and dumping volcanvo is a good idea.

    I speak controversy so we have something to talk about. Don't take me too seriously.
