Gravitational Waves

Comrox

Peace all,

This scientific discovery occurred months ago, but I still feel it's worth mentioning, if anyone here hasn't heard of it yet. ;D

These gravitational waves are "ripples in the curvature of spacetime" (which is awesome to even try to comprehend, IMO). Albert Einstein first predicted these waves a century ago. Today the scientific community finally has evidence that they do indeed exist, after they were detected from the collision of two black holes.

Here's a recent news article on them.

And here's the sound recording of the collision.

It sounds quite calming to me, honestly.

Gravitational waves are a ripple in space and time..
Now we understand that gravitation is not a "force" yet an "effect" caused by non uniformity of space and time.
It's the space and time which pulls moon to earth, earth to the sun, sun to the black hole at the center of our galaxy.

Although Einstein correctly predicted the ripple of space and time.
He is an UNBELIEVER / KUFFAR in the existence of black hole.
He believes that space and time cannot disappear / gone or being "eaten" by a black hole.

Now we proves that Einstein was wrong, black hole exist, and space and time are being eaten by hundreds (if not thousands or millions) of black hole spread around this universe.. as we speak.

Luckily Einsten wasn't burnt alive or being murdered for his non belief in the existence of the black hole.
And / or anyone in scientific community declare Eisntein's other theory as false and blasphemy.. just because of his disbelief in the black hole which proven to be wrong (after his death).
That's the difference between religious and scientific culture...

That's the difference between religious and scientific culture...

It is because they are humans "defending" an idol and enabling their most primitive of instincts.

You're right..
Idol worshiping came in many form..
Some worship a book as an idol (Quran, Bible) some others worship a football club as an idol...

Luckily no one has worshipped "Einstein" yet... to the point of something is true or false because Einstein said it was true or false.. or other scientist are false and only Einstein was right..

Peace Jafar.

I am afraid ,to his fan club ,it is a religion. Einstein the "god genius"?

Oh, yes some are worshipping him !
GOD bless you.
Peace.

Concerning "holy Einstein", a Mileva Maric might have something to say.

In science I am not going to say anything now, but where he really was a genius was in PR (Public relations), either that or he had a genius to PR for him.
