in a moatter that somebody who didn't study physics would understand...?

www.hawking.org.uk-I propose you visit this web site.It is great and you can even e-mail Hawking himself!

yeah..... it dont take a rocket scientist to figure that out

I'm WAY too curious of a person to be ignorant. I enjoy learning and understanding why things happen and I am constantly asking, "what if?" Definitely intelligent. If you learn about something and why it happens, you can understand it better and see a possible outcome, or different outcomes, and not be so stressed. Of course there are always things you'd like to be ignorant about, like accidentally seeing your grannie naked when you're a kid. Some things just weren't meant to be seen by young children!

look at Newton for example.  He may not have had a complete theory, but a lot of it is still valid.  \n\nNewton has been modified by einstein. but this is only in the case of very very massive objects (the size of the sun) and very fast moving objects (.7 c and up or 10^8 m/s, very very very fast).  \n\nBut we do not encouter those things in day to day life... infact you will only encounter that limit in stellar physics and particle physics.  \n\nWhen you build a rocket and launch it you are using purely newtonian mechanics.  \n\nThere have been methodes discoverd that make the calculations easier in many situaitions, but for most situations you will use newtons force laws instead of, say, the lagragian equations of motion.  \n\nThis is the same is all well developed feilds.  \n\n\nAlso a bunch of these non symplified theorys that are technecly correct are just too difficlut for just any one to understand.  If you wish to use lagrages or hamoltons equations of motions you need to know differntial calculus.  and you need to be rather good at it.  on the other hand you can do newton with elementry calculus, or even just algebra.  \n\nAlso just the concepts are difficlult to understand.  We can all imagine electrons traveling around the neucleus like planents around the sun, but it is much more difficlt to explain that electrons are not particals but they are waves and they tend to exist in a reigion of space moving around, but because they exist every where they have no change in momentum, and for this reason they exist with out giving off radiation.  \nBut once you understand the first theory, then you can start to modify the picture and try to understand the way things really are.  Which is actualy impossible because the particals exist in a dimention that we can not see, and act in a way that we can not understand.

you just know you cant really explain it...

People sort of understand waves and they understand particles, light might be a disturbance in the space time continum. Just a definate bit energy with an uncertainty where it is, traveling. Some "particles" exist for such a short time , they are more a resonance. I am looking forward to new research and thoughts on nature of light.

i think the best way to find the answer to this is to ask them.tell them that you need them to explain this to you,that you do not understand.-

I don't have any experience...if it helps.

A con, who is interested in science.\nconscience.

You don't have the mental capacity to understand the answer to your own question.

I agree that such an explanation is one possibility.  In fact, my failure to fully comprehend the Big Bang in a purely scientific manner is the only reason why I am an agnostic, and not an athiest.  I feel that I need to allow for the possibility.

Yes you are correct about the unknown Indian bit!! I haven't heard about either him or the experiment, and I haven't found any one else that has, but I think my 'teleportation' gear is playing up a bit, I'll get it re-tuned and try again later!! I thought teleportation was a means of transferring physical matter almost instantly? Not brain waves!!\nAre you sure your brain waves haven't been transfered??

give up asking about this because people are just too stupid to realize the physics behind the government's story just does not add up.

This is too funny! You put this under physics. I think you mean "psychics!" And as for psychics, most of them are con artists who are going to keep charging you money and claiming to have the answer to your problem only if you keep paying them. Don't get sucked into a con.

its not that these people werent thinking of science it was just that much of the "masses"(peasents) weren't educated. the ones that were were from the clergy(church) so a science was not part of religion as we all know because God invented it all and there shouldnt be any questions or impovements but there were scientists who had ideas like devincci he had sketches of some good working tech that we have now.

That's an old fundamental problem.  Mathematicians and physicists tend to disbelieve their own observations and replace their experience with empirical results and tautological proofs.
