  • What are these black things?

    Ok this may sound weird but i need to ask......

    I see a little black thing quickly flash through the room. It's about the size of a small bird & very fast. I can go months without seeing one but then it happens out of the blue & not always in the same part of the room.

    I thought i was going mad but my wife sees it too at the same time - and we've recently had a dog that also seems to notice.

    It doesn't bother me in the slightest & i know i may be open to ridicule but i just need to ask

    cheers

    Is the Solar Wind comprised of actual matter along with energy? If so, is there a point at which the gravitational attraction of the Sun overcomes the Solar Wind?

  • Nucleosynthesis.......???

    I was talking to a friend who know little of Astronomy about Gravatational lenses & progressed to talking about origins of matter. He asked:- If large objects in space cause gravitational lensing, could there be sufficient energy focused at the focal point of the gravitational lens to cause nucleosynthesis & thereby create matter. I beganto think of the Oort cloud from the Sun, Globular clusters found at the focal point of Galaxies & i realised i was getting out of my depth....... HELP!!! Is he on to something?????
