Dark energy might be getting weaker - which means we might end up with a 'big crunch' rather than an ever expanding universe. 

The jury is still out over whether this means we will have to watch the Stoke semi final in reverse.

I've just had a "big crunch" thanks to the past-its use-by-date microwave shepherd's pie I got from  the Co-op for lunch today. So there might be summat in what you say. But it didn't take me $12B to prove it - it was 49p. Money well spent to probe the intricacies of the cosmological constant and me poor old expanding ring-piece. I think I've just shat a good few Higg's Bosons worth of dark matter. The splash-back probably contained the secret of the long sought after relationship between gravity and quantum field theory. Be a Nobel prize there if I hadn't flushed it. Twice.

I've got the opposite problem. Majorly 'egg bound' following the consumption on 6 large free rangers. 

I've now got a black hole from which nothing can escape, even when it is travelling at the speed of shite.

This is interesting - but I just wanted to point out that there are fewer people in the world I find as insufferably smug as Neil DeGrasse Tyson...... 😂

Don't you dare dis Neil DGT! He's always happy and helps folk like me understand a little more.

😂😂 - he absolutely loves himself. You're a bloody astrophysist Neil - not the second coming. You big fanny!

He's just passionate about Astrophysics isn't he, and is a pretty good communicator? Definitely doesn't come across to me how he comes across to you.

Hitler was just passionate about antisemitism and a pretty good communicator 😁

He's a poor man's Carl Sagan or Brian Greene for me. Neil DeGrasse Tyson (not Hitler).

Mental how many things have to be just right to allow us to inhabit Earth.

Mental how many things have to be just right to allow us to inhabit Earth.

The Goldilocks zone 

That's what they look for when deciding if another planet out there could be inhabited 

And then you've got all the other random factors that led to life on earth 

Meteors that hit the earth off its axis so it's tilting at 23.5 degrees, otherwise we don't have seasons (something like that)

A random fissure shift miles in under the sea creating a vacuum of air that led to the first incarnation of biological life (something like that) 

It's all so fucking random and out of control 

It's why I struggle with the notion that there MUST be intelligent life out there somewhere 

And we will never ever know anyway

"Earlier this week, Nasa used a SpaceX rocket to deliver more food and supplies to the ISS, including extra clothes for the two astronauts."

They eject them with other waste and it all burns up as it re-enter Earth's atmosphere.
