Gravity is not instantaneous. It moves at the speed of light. And the “speed of light” can only be measured locally, because the time and space at a point are curved. The path of light corresponds to “null geodesics” in spacetime, and a body traveling along the geodesic experiences no time elapsed.

The system can be overwhelmed by having too many incoming rockets, so it does have its limits.

Tin whiskers usually don’t occur with most solders, are solders are formulated to prevent them. Perhaps this is defective solder, or there was a high thermal gradient, or repeated heat cycling has fractionated the alloy?

What a poseur.

Hydrogen is an electron and proton. I am guessing that most protons have been fully ionized many times since the beginning of the universe, thus not being complete intact atoms. Checkmate scientists!

Hard to believe that in 500 years a 2500 year old hand gesture will change meaning.

If only I was in charge, everything would be perfect. Why can’t those morons get it right?

Highly irrelevant song to celebrate Mastodon’s milestone!
