” (the equation actually uses m-sub-zero - the rest mass being converted)”

Then why is it relativistic?

Obviously the solar system isn’t old- or the Sun wouldn’t let us kids on his lawn.

“Why do you claim that the relativistic mass-energy equivalence is not derived from Special Relativity?”

The relativistic KE term was set to zero therefore the equation being discussed in not a relativistic equivalence.

“Just what do you know of physics? “

BSNE, MSNE

And you make such arguments?

You ask what is meant by relativistic mass-energy equivalence?

You think that the energy output of the Sun is fueled by comets?

You’ve been trolling us, haven’t you?

No. I asked why you used the term ‘reativistic’.

“You think that the energy output of the Sun is fueled by comets?”

To reach the sun’s lower atmosphere, a comet would need a mass of at least 109 kilograms – a lower limit roughly a hundred times smaller than comets ISON and Lovejoy.

If a comet is big enough and passes close enough, the steep fall into the sun’s gravity would accelerate it to more than 600 kilometres per second. At that speed, drag from the sun’s lower atmosphere would flatten the comet into a pancake right before it exploded in an airburst, releasing ultraviolet radiation and X-rays that we could see with modern instruments.

The crash would unleash as much energy as a magnetic flare or coronal mass ejection, but over a much smaller area. “It’s like a bomb being released in the sun’s atmosphere,” Brown says. The momentum propelled by the comet could even make the sun ring like a bell with subsequent sun-quakes echoing through the solar atmosphere.

Brown acknowledges that the work is speculative – both in the sense that a sun-plunging comet hasn’t yet been seen and in the physics that would determine its fate. One issue that could make a big difference is the poorly understood propensity of comets to break up under stress.

A true impactor is likely to be a one-off event that might happen once a century. But thinking ahead in case of a sun-striking comet is a worthy exercise for a phenomenon that has almost certainly happened in the solar system’s past and will happen again in the future, Brown says. In 1994, the impact of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter was a surprise to planetary scientists who doubted violent events like that could happen on human timescales.

The calculations may also apply to other solar systems, where young stars are bombarded with far more comets than the sun has to face.

The crust floats, like a broken egg shell around a huge ball of molten magma. The fact that the crust to magma ratio is so massively tilted toward magma is just another, in a long line of evidences, proof of a young universe.

The point of the article.

As does the creation itself speak of the Creator. It is the beauty of ertz that makes this speach a song to His Glory. The saga of HaEretz, of His righteousness and holiness
.
But it was the depth of the love of HaShem in the eyes of a humble Jewish man on a street corner in Jerusalem that humbled and inspired this goy to love His people forever.

Genesis 7:20-24: “Fifteen cubits (22 1/2 feet) upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth and and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.”

Nuclear fusion of course.

I decided that the whole thing was a troll.
