RE: Is standard cosmology challenged by the structure of the galaxies?
One of my favorite sport on Steem is to write physics posts about what Steemians are questioning themselves about, or find interesting.
My favorite sport is meme. Looking forward to becoming the most badass meme debater in the whole multiverse.
Things that seriously interest me are as follows:
- How does magic/illusion work FFS?!
- What is the nature of reality?
- What if we are actually just a computer programs who happened to become self-aware? That for me is more mind-blowing than extra dimensions of hyperspace.
- Exploring the nature of the mind though psychedelics.
- Nihilism
Ahaha, I forgot to be more precise: anything about particle physics, astrophysics of cosmology. Sorry to disappoint you ;)
It's fine bro. I am a generalist type of person, so to speak. Too many brilliant people have been into this field, scrutinizing the very minuscule details on the fabric of the cosmos. Adding my own share of ignorance would not make any sense to the vast collection of scientific papers written everyday. I was just trying to paint a big picture on the nature of reality using science and rational and irrational experience alike. Science for me is just a tool by which we can build a somehow 'objective' foundation of whatever justification we assign on this vague notion of existence.
The idea that this reality as we experience it might be just a shared hallucination is playing in my mind every so often. The more I delve deeper, the more I get inclined to the nihilistic point of view. In the words of Ernest Hemingway:
On the other hand, trying to understand nature is really really funny and interesting :)
