I just read the title of this article aloud while we wait for the trainees to come in.
His response was “Largest Object — your mom”.
Don’t know why I am laughing at this.
I hope it’s revolving and not actually rotating else we got more than meteors to worry about.
Space is kewl. But weird.
So that’s how the aliens are getting here
Yo mama so fat she snacks on galactic tendrils
I had a galactic filament once.
Veins. And galaxies are corpuscles.
This just means we are being flushed down the cosmological toilet.
Well, that’s just plain neat! And to make a comment very few will understand but is most appropriate and the first thought that popped into my head: “Looks like this is Steve Ditko’s universe and we’re just living in it!”
Thanks for posting this!
Double helix in the sky tonight
Throw out the hardware
Let’s do it right
Aja
When all my dime dancin’ is through
I run to you
Brain neurons.
Isn’t Dark matter theoretical? If so how do they know “Galaxies reside... on a backbone of dark matter”.
Welcome to the fractal universe....with all that is hinted at by that...
“dark matter” is science talk for “we have no clue what that stuff is...”
;-)
“Galaxies reside in filaments hundreds of millions of light-years long, on a backbone of dark matter.”
BS, the filaments are plasma, not dark matter.
Is that the Kessel Run?
“These massive filaments are rotating, and this kind of rotation on such a massive scale has never been seen before.”
Did Einstein’s theory of relativity predict anything like these?
Yes, but more to the point, we know in physics exactly what kind of filaments form helical pairs that rotate around each other, and we can duplicate the same behavior in the lab that they are observing in these galactic filaments. They are plasma filaments, not dark matter. It’s electromagnetic interaction that causes the rotation, which is completely explainable with plasma filaments, whereas “dark matter filaments” wouldn’t offer any explanation for the rotation at all.
