    @mark impossible to comprehend, isn't it?

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I wonder how long it would take light to cross that black hole.

      Oh wait...

        Why did the light cross the black hole?

        Because it was a science denier.

        Education is extremely important.

                Solar Cycle 25 is approaching solar maximum already, with far more sunspots than the model curve predicted by this point. Look at the sun today, and on this day last year

                                          They got it wrong. Everybody knows that Uranus is the fixed point of the universe, so the Milky Way and the other planets move around Uranus.
