time is even more relative than i thought it was.

okay. upon rereading my post. i have realized that the time and light thing i have stated has gone horribly wrong. as some of you guys may have noticed also. xD. my bad. so i shall state it again. but anyhoo, up till that gravity part, facts were still correct. okay. ishall resume my 'mood' continueing from the previous moment. people who are reading this post first instead of the other, please continue reading. xD. it wont spoil anything. the first one went horribly wrong. but obviously saying that would draw you to read it. =D. oh and, i forgot to say earlier. hello everyone.

okay. we all know that light travels 300,000km per second right? now how many seconds are there in a minute? 60. correct? then how many minutes are there in an hour? 60 x 60. right? how many hours are there in a day. 60 x 60 x 24. how many days are there in a week. 60 x 60 x 24 x 7. how many weeks are there in a month. 60 x 60 x 24 x 7 x 4. how many months are there in a year? 60 x 60 x 24 x 7 x 4 x 12. do the math. that shows the number of seconds that past during the year. 29030400 seconds a year. the number ain't big enough for you?

well, its going to be, remember how i said earlier? that light travels 300,000km per second? okay. to get how many km light travels in a year, you get this equation. 300,000 x 29030400. which equals to 8.70912 x 10^12. for those who dont know what this answer means, (usually form1, 2, and 3s), this form of answer is called standard form, a shortened version of an answer, the answer capable of your comprehension would be this : 8709120000000km. big ain't it? see how time connects with light? in this situation. scientists call this phenomanle distance a lightyear. as some of you may know.

fiy, our galazy alone spans millions and millions of lightyears apart. millions. and how many galaxies are there in the universe? BILLIONS. the universe is all-encompassing. it is massive. which also proves that there are other intelligent life in this universe besides us. heck, there may be even a multiverse. anyway, i have to go now (again.). i have chem to study for. haha. :D.

lucas. xD. take care. peace out.
