billslugg replied to the thread Supermassive black holes prefer to eat from wobbly plates."whether incredibly bright, or "ultraluminous," accretion disks also wobble, or "process,"" It's precess, not process. Writer not... -
billslugg replied to the thread Why does classical physics gravity formulas/measurements do not work at a quantum level, what’s missing?.No, there is no way we could measure the gravity due to a magnetic field here on Earth anyway. We can make about 10 Teslas, but any...

billslugg replied to the thread Create Breathable Air on Mars.We know that Ganymede is covered in water ice, has a magnetic field, has a low moment of inertia. The magnetic field is best modeled by...

billslugg replied to the thread 4 years after the giant Arecibo Observatory collapsed, we finally know what happened.The Arecibo dish was built by a general contractor Amos Carlton Samford Jr. His son, Bill (RIP), was my age and lived about a mile from...

Like.
NSF and the University in Florida stole the maintenance money for their pet projects. As others have pointed out -- not just the... -
billslugg replied to the thread World's 1st wooden satellite arrives at ISS for key orbital test.I remember the Ranger images where the last one just before impact was only partially sent, half the picture was noise.

billslugg reacted to The True Nolan's post in the thread World's 1st wooden satellite arrives at ISS for key orbital test with Like.
The Ranger 4 spacecraft became the first US craft to impact on another celestial body, the Moon, on April 26, 1962, and it was made...

billslugg replied to the thread Why does classical physics gravity formulas/measurements do not work at a quantum level, what’s missing?.A magnetic field occurs only when a charge is moving relative to an observer. The observer feels the static charge force which is a...

billslugg reacted to jhixon's post in the thread Negative Mass exists, Newton's Laws opposite with Like.
So in the last section "conclusions of negative mass" Nevertheless, some objects with the properties of negative mass are now being...
-
billslugg replied to the thread Negative Mass exists, Newton's Laws opposite.Right, but it is not matter as we know it. It operates only at the quantum level and at the cosmic level. It also does not fall upwards...

billslugg reacted to Torbjorn Larsson's post in the thread Interstellar' fireballs likely came from within our solar system, study suggests with Like.
Pound for pound, Loeb is taking a pounding.
-
billslugg replied to the thread Negative Mass exists, Newton's Laws opposite.I am not aware of any such "reverse gravity at black holes". The "thing" that has an "anti-gravity" property, on the scale of the...
-
billslugg replied to the thread Negative Mass exists, Newton's Laws opposite.Einstein was confused by Hubble's discovery the universe was expanding. The Cosmological Constant was added to account for it. Then, it...
-
billslugg replied to the thread Negative Mass exists, Newton's Laws opposite.Einstein did not predict the expansion of the universe, so he had to fudge his equation. Once determined to be a quantum effect, which...

billslugg replied to the thread Newfound dead star spins record-breaking 716 times a second, explodes with thermonuclear blasts.Bill would comment except he doesn't want to get struck by lightning.
