WHAT IS REALITY IS THE BIGGEST QUESTION EVER ,BUT WE NEED NOT HAVE A GOD TO FIND IT OUT THERE MAY BE A FIFTH FORCE TO GLUE OTHER FORCES AND MATTER .SOME DAY SCIENCE WILL FIND IT OUT. O A RAJAPPAN

The information is very abstract, it should have been detailed enough to attract space lovers.

Will the man in the tinfoil hat please stand?

Seriously? So discovery channel has finally been caught up in the alien craze.... Yeesh.....

I wonder why Nasa and Stephen Hawking think spacecraft such as the Pioneer mission can leave the solar system when Halley's comet can't? Is there one set of physics for Stephen Hawking and Nasa and another set of physics for Halley's comet?

People are entrenched in their belief systems and get irate when somebody tries to help correct errors in the logic. Robert Milikan proved the electrical charge of an electron by the oil drop experiment using electrical charge to levitate a drop of oil and knowing the mass.

In this video a guy levitates a heavy metal ball using high frequencies.

The errors can be explained more simply using the Pythagorean Theorem. People think of it as a two dimensional equation f(x), but it is a three dimensional equation f(x,y) and does not compute in a two dimensional plane. The Pythagorean Theorem is the equation of a cone. It is also a simpified equation of a circle, hence a circle is three dimensional. When you get closer to the origin, it does not compute and becomes three dimensional causing levitation.

F(x,y)=X^2+y^2

Increasing electrical charge or increasing frequency gets us closer to the center. The contour integral of nothing is a pole in a circular path. As you get closer to the center, you get levitation. This can be seen in 3D anamorphic art.

This has nothing to do with electrons, protons and neutrons.

Your comment is more paragraph-like.

Very nice article

This is how a flying saucer works. Once you levitate, you can travel through time because time and distance are perpendicular.

Proof:

E=mc^2

m=E/c^2

m=E/(meters/seconds)^2

When meters=0, m=Infinity

When seconds=0,m=0

m=Infinity*Cosine(0)=Infinity

m=Infinity*Cosine(90)=0

who, the aliens...or stephen hawking?

JuniperBends (talk)15:32, 26 April 2010

Good question.

http://forum.richarddawkins.net/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=80143

Lots of people are confused about him.

BeerDrinker (talk)21:59, 26 April 2010

So Steven Hawking is an atheist. Or he's an agnostic. Or he's a deist depending on whom you ask. Or maybe he's none of those, still what does this have to do with the possible existence of aliens in the universe?

JuniperBends (talk)23:13, 26 April 2010

Stephen Hawking is supposed to be the smartest man in the world. In the case of aliens he does not know.

BeerDrinker (talk)23:57, 26 April 2010

Well how could, he unless he's contacted them personally? lol

Maybe this has not been thought through properly

Steven Hawking is a brilliant man whom everyone should respect and listen to. However on this subject he may have not have spent enough time analysing all the logical outcomes & possibilities. I would suggest people read www.humanityssun.com to gain a totally different perspective to this eventuallity

It is an interesting website. I added it to my favorites bar. Thank you for the info.

A while back, I sent an email to Stephen Hawking which he did not answer. I know he is busy and has health issues. I asked him if electrons only exist because J.J. Thompson invented them? The reason I ask, is because Kepler's equation for planetary orbit does not have an origin. The left side of the equation does not equal the right side of the equation at the origin.

How do you connect an imaginary line to the origin of the sun if the origin is not there? I can't find any scientist to answer my question.
