    World's Greatest Mysteries!

    What are some mysteries that have always made you scratch your head?

    Mine: Why does Megatron let Starscream live!

    Because his sound receptors would blow up when he tried to kill him and he screamed....


    but what I wonder is how gravity works....I understand that mass draws things together, more mass gives greater gravity, but why does mass have this property?
    Why does it draw things towards itself and how?

    1- Strength in numbers.

    2- Flies actually crawl into small cracks and spaces and go dormant/hibernate. If you have ever moved a piece of furniture off from the wall, or pulled up a board, you might have had one fly away to find a new hiding/sleeping place.

    Higgs Boson, one of the tiniest particles that makes up matter is what causes Gravity. in a sense the idea of a magnetic attraction is nothing like what the higgs boson does, but if you understand magnetism you can possibly understand how gravity works.

    Nuns are women, women generally like to travel in groups because men can be dangerous.

    Flys only 'disappear' in cold places, that is because they die in cold, but the eggs survive, and when 70 degrees is reached the eggs hatch.

    Women, can communicate better then males, sadly most women forget this.

    ---
    edit, on flys they also hibernate in cold. Living in Los Angeles means we have flys 365.25days a year.

    Now how does the Higgs Boson work....

    As for me a euphimistic question...

    How does a TV work...Or rather what PERMITS it to work....As in what universal laws even allow the images to be displayed and how do those laws work and what about how we percieve them how does it all work...

    In short I want to understand the basecode of the multiverse ...

    The higgs boson is a biproduct of the higgs field which gives everything that interacts with it mass. Photons are not affected by the higgs field, so they dont have mass, hence why they travel at the speed of light, which incidentally is the universal speed limit. Although the majority of your mass is not from the higgs field, its a biproduct of the strong nuclear force, that keeps your atoms together, since E=mc^2, mass is a direct consequence of energy. My point is, that gravity is not a direct product of the higgs boson or the higgs field, and it is not actually an attraction between mass, but rather an attraction of energy and momentum, i mentioned that a photon doesnt have mass, right ? but it is still affected by gravity because it does have energy and momentum. This is why light cannot escape the horizon of a black hole.

    Origin and purpose of the " TIME " itself.

    Space...Is it infinite? Was it created, or it was just "there"?
    I can never wrap my mind around the fact that space goes on and on..something that doesn't start or end.

    Anyways . . . as to mine . . .

    How come in a time of scientific progress, there are still people who hold on to superstition and mythology while denying the very sciences that have so improved their lives in the last few centuries?

    Quantum physics and string theory. Like ... how the fuck does that work?

    Also : 10 dimensions? They kinda lose me at dimension 7.
