Over active mind... Help....?

The sun's distance from earth is 93 million miles and light travels at 300,000 km per second.

Distance/velocity=time which gives you 8 minutes and nearly 20 seconds.So when you see the sun you are seeing it 8 minutes later.

Similar is the case with other stars.They are millions and millions of miles away,and their light takes few light years to reach us.

So what we are seeing is the light emitted by the stars few years ago.

It couldn't have been there now,but we will see it for another few years.

With the big-bang,space was created.Space is not just a three dimensional vacuum.It is a fabric encrypted with time and the membranous fabric was created with the creation of everything from the big-bang.

Before the big-bang, there could already have been many bigger bangs and space would already have existed,and what created after the big bang would have occupied the previously created space,and during the process phenomena and mysteries of space like Dark energy might have been created too,due to may be overlapping of fabrics of spaces,resulting into higher dimensions and multiverses!

Any thing is possible in this universe,we can't imagine our way of life and fit it into some other forms! I believe the universe is far more mysterious and complicated to be figured out than it is thought to be!

No one knows what was there before the big bang, you won't find an answer to that...

And yes some of the stars you see at night aren't there because light goes only one costrant speed. So some stars are so far away that it took the light from the star longer to reach earth than the time it took for the star to reach the end of it's "life" (stars aren't alive)

Yes the sun is there, we are close enough that it only takes the light 7 minutes to get to us (not the entire duration of it's "life")

But the cool thing is when you look at the sun you are really seeing it as it was 7 minutes ago...

Hope this helps... :^D

When we "see" something , we see the light that has been emitted or reflected by it . Light moves at a fantastic speed , but it is still a finite speed. So the light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach us . We always see the sun as it was 8 minutes ago -- in our past . In fact everything we see is in the past, simply because it took light time to reach our eyes.

Our science just about extrapolates back to the Big Bang -- the origin of all matter and time in our universe.And we can construct fairly convincing hypotheses about the way the universe has evolved since then to what it is now .But science doesn't work before the Big Bang -- so what came before it, if anything , is pure speculation at the present .

I won't speculate about the Big Bang, but the other part of your question is very easy to answer.

"They say that when we look into the nights sky and see a star, its not actually there anymore, its actually where it was."

Think about a lightning storm. You see a flash of lightning. It disappears. You wait several seconds. Then...you hear the thunder.

The light coming from the stars is very much like the thunder. Light doesn't travel in an instant. It takes time. So...by the time you see it, the star has moved. Since it's still shining, the light continues to arrive at our location...but it takes time.

Keep watching science shows...you'll get it!

the sun is still there. it is far from exploding

in your life time you might not experiance any new knowledge of how things work. you shouldnt worry about it too much. Just realize that earth is not the center of the universe and there are larger things at work. No I don't mean god, Imagine if an insect was aware of its own existance and what it thinks of us?

Time began at the same instant as the big bang as time is a property of matter there was no before.

loose innovations. permit your self bypass by taking a stroll interior the sparkling air whilst the wind is extreme high quality with nature around, watch the fluffy clouds pass interior the sky and gaze on the colours, take a seat decrease back and look on the celebs, word the currents of water from a river or the oceans and whilst the solar rayes sparkle on it or the mirrored image of the moon.

Yeah it's there. Plus all you need to know is that it had NOTHING to do with "God" or any of that bollox.

If you want to learn about the universe read a science book, NOT the Bible

i belleive in god aswell as some science, but just calm down, u never kno wwats real nowadays

sun is there dont worry
