The distance of stars are calculated in light years, light travels at the speed of 186,000 miles per second then multiply it by 60 that makes a minute then by 60 making for 1 hour then by 24 that makes for 1 day then by 3651/4 making for 1 year then you have to multiply that by some billion years that gives you the distance of the nearest star, period. That distance given in the write up is far from right |

Chanchit: Did your parents conceive you on the motorway by any chance? because that's where most accidents happen, it might also explain why you're such a dumb 4cktard! |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by Chanchit: 6:33pm On Jul 06, 2015 |
mickyeddi: Hey Mr, I never asked for where you were conceived, so keep the history to your self and if dumb 4cktards is really hereditary in your family its all well and good. |

Chanchit: I take it then your parents are siblings. |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by Chanchit: 6:43pm On Jul 06, 2015 |
mickyeddi: See!? I was right, your family breeds dumb 4cktrds, and as it stands you might be suffering from brain leakage cos I never mentioned "parents" oooooh, now I understand, your parents are siblings, you're just looking for a way to tell me, sorry, I can't help you. You have to suffer the consequences, cos your family would keep reproducing 4cktards like you. |

Chanchit: Your profile picture shows you're one ugly narcissistic inbred, that's why you're so frustrated. If you were anymore of a b1tch, you’d have puppies. Yeah, and then you wouldn’t be the only dog on this forum. Just chill, dumb Arrow! |

mickyeddi: What's the difference between black hole nd worm hole?? |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by Chanchit: 8:46pm On Jul 06, 2015 |
mickyeddi: I never knew someone suffering from brain leakage could make me laugh, I can see frustration written over your reply, so you had to consult you whole dumb 4cktard family for what to type next, I'm disappointed with what you all came up with, and why would you have to end ur reply with "Arrow?" Pls I never asked for your surname. |

Mickyeddi u're wrong on the colour being green/blue, In phy210(introduction to space) I learnt the sun is yellowish-red (from prof. R.B department of space physics futa) |

ogaprime: Blackhole is a region of space-time so deformed by its mass that it exerts a gravitational pull that not even light can escape. The point at which the gravitational pull becomes so great as to make escape impossible is called the event horizon At the center of the blackhole lies a region of space-time with infinite curvature. Blackholes are formed when the core of a supermassive star collapses in on itself Wormhole is "Einstein-Rosen bridge" and are a hypothetical tunnel that would connect two points in space-time. There are valid solution for equations in the theory of relativity that contain wormholes, but unlike black holes, there hasn't been any observational evidence for wormholes so far. In theory, a stable wormhole could be used as a way to travel across vast expanses of space. |

mickyeddi: Wormhole reminds me of a game called freelancer.... Anyways thanks.... |

scarletdp:Actually the closest star to us is our sun and the light from it takes about 8mins to touch down on earth surface..every other ascertions of yours barring dat are true. |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by waledud(m): 8:09am On Jul 07, 2015 |
BRAINTORMS:No, they do not. 2 is talking about the number of individual stars u can see per time while 9 talks about the relative distance of the stars to earth. |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by kenedy175(m): 9:05am On Jul 07, 2015 |
waledud:my bad! Thanks for your correction though |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by scarletdp(m): 9:11am On Jul 07, 2015 |
waledud: Okay, cool. I never knew technically the sun was a Star. Thanks thoough |

Holyfield1:There is always an explanation for everything. Heard of the Big bang Theory before? it's presumed that was the beginning of all solar bodies. I'm not atheist o! but science provides a more interesting, complicated and cool explanation to all this. Everything can be explained! Most sha 1 Like |

Chanchit: Morning pr.ck, has your reta7ded dad? |
Re: 10 Cool Things About Stars by Chanchit: 9:46am On Jul 07, 2015 |
mickyeddi: After consulting your whole dumb 4cktarded family this is all you could come up with? Once again I'm disappointed, now this is an assignment for you and your ***!??* (I'm tired of saying it) family, wait till its sunny, then you all should go out and count the stars in the sky, since you really love stars. You can leave your mum behind anyway so all of you won't have to go blind. |
