I too am sceptical of dark matter and dark energy. It is possible that at least dark matter can be explained by a modified theory of gravity. But the only attempt at this that I have heard of is MOND, and it seems to me that modifying Newton is the wrong approach, it really needs to be done through general relativity or something completely new. But I'm only an engineer, not a scientist, so that's as far as I can go.

2024-05-03 20:18:10 +0000 UTCI heard once that our footprints on the moon will slowly vanish as fine dust collects over hundreds/thousands of years. The moon's gravity kind of picks this dust up as a normal object floating in space that has gravity, but no atmosphere to filter the dust out. Have you ever heard thins? I can't remember what documentary claimed this phenomena.

2024-05-03 16:18:02 +0000 UTCThe new intro is really nice. Poor shoebox kitty! It would be good to see a shift back towards investing in pure research... must have been more exciting, freedom to step into the unknown without pressure to always create something lucrative. Thanks for more science noooos! 😄
