The Milky Way is named after a bit of milk that Hera squirted when feeding baby Heracles.

If humans eventually kill the planet it would be killed by processed sun light, by this posts reasoning

You can create and destroy matter as long as the amount of matter in the universe doesn't change.

Uh no. There are NOT people in the Andromeda galaxy at all. All of these are a little bit ridiculous.

That whole dinosaurs comment really gets me, because in the same way, we look at habitable planets lightyears away with no life... ages ago.
Sansaucundoute88
Maybe woman produce milk also... just an idea
Mooxim
Going by the fact we inherited the word galaxy from the Greek “galaxias kyklos”, “milky circle.”, it would be the goddess Hera's breast milk

The last one is flat wrong. The only light that meaningfully reaches our eyes that is MYO is from the core of the Andromeda Galaxy.
Matter can never be created or destroyed.. Bleh. Were stardust which is made when stars explode
BronzeLeaguePro
It's much more scary and exciting that we might be the first one that got this far.
applesforjuice
Especially since most every alien movie ever is based on the premise that we aren't the first ones, so we're kinda used to the idea.

but what if... when we look at planets that "could have life" we see their planet before the people on it existed :OOO

"Everything you eat is processed sunshine" explain mushrooms then.

They are organisms that survive and reproduce through the consumption of dead material that was fueled by sunshine.

Japan at least doesn't call it the Milky Way, they call it 天ノ川, ama-no-gawa, "river of heaven".
NotTakenImgurAccountName
In Sweden we call it "Vintergatan", meaning "the winter street"
Kirisama
In Finnish, it's "linnunrata" which translates directly to "the bird's orbit", or "the bird's track"
Spidersarecool
That sounds a lot cooler than Milky Way, wish we called it that here

You tell'em fellow Plutonian
Well if that's what you think then what about Ceres, Haumea, Makemake and Eris?
AgnostosQue
Actually "Milky Way" is a translation of the word "Galaxy". It symbolizes the milk of the goddess Hera after Hercules bit her nipple 1/2
2/2 while breastfeeding. . The milk spilled and formed the galaxy
Silverforte
If matter can't be created then what exactly is happening when the Hadron Collider smashes particles together?
chbarts
The list lying to you. Matter can be created and destroyed. It happens in stars all the time.
JSid
That one is bullshit. Of course matter can be created, there is no conservation of matter law.
PsychopompGecko
Leithoa
Same thing as when you smash other things together, you get to see what they're made of. Tinier matter & energy.
SomeonesPCbutNotBills
On a real note: particles are excitations of a potential field. When two are collided their new energy can resonate with underlying 1/2
2/2 fields of other particles. This is what we perceive as different particles coming out of a scattering or decaying event. ie a collision
CochiseVeneficorum
It's a matter of semantics. Energy turns into matter then the matter turns back to energy, but nothing is created or destroyed inthe process
Except our hopes and dreams
mollyisthenameofmybicycle
are you a theorist?
MechaNinja
Ok but there is no way space battles are exciting. They are hours long, ponderous, and boring, or they are over in about 3 seconds.
Since space travel between eventual other habitable worlds is physically impossible I doubt any space battles go on
Ralter3
Well unless they're in the same orbit and you get stuff like in The Expanse.
RedHadron
Our first space battles will be 20 people staring at monitors for 7 hours until everything is decided in 7 min. Scary enough with rovers!
tr3buchet
Time is relative
cuzimcool
They take about 10 movies too
Raltsun
Who says it isn't a very exciting 3 seconds?
Ok, but I feel like 3 seconds isn't enough time for humans to appreciate the excitement.

How about "no way battles are exciting"? Because it doesn't fucking matter where you are, war is not fun unless you're playing video games.
I won't argue with your point, but I was only responding to the one note.

Excuse me, but I can't hear you over the sound of me FIRING LASERS AT ROBOT MARTIANS.

BeesechurgerProductions
I mean the people that sat on roofs of houses and watched the battles of the American Civil War nearby thought they were pretty fun
Rediix
I imagine there's quite a few people who enjoy the fuck out of war.
My point still stands. Space or not, it can last hours, days or 3 seconds.
That wasnt your point. Its written right there
I've definitely heard that war is days/weeks/months of boredom punctuated by minutes of terror.

If matter can NEVER be created or destroyed, then where did matter originate?
duisdaniel
on the belly button of buddha I guess
Ninjainslippers
That's a question physics will never be able to answer. The origin of the universe is in the realm of metaphysics/theology.
3nd3rwiggin
Energy can be converted to matter, and matter to energy, but neither is created or destroyed in the process.
The list is wrong. Matter gets created and destroyed all the time.
Big Bang Jesus.

LordStarkillerHimself

foxholenorman
So it was created by worms? :D
HeroSky
It had to be created somehow, it cannot create itself.
And so begins the question of the Creator and the Creation.
clawthewolf
Simplified: When the universe was born there was only energy. It was simply too hot for matter to be a thing, but as it expanded, 1/?
where did all that energy come from? same law applies about creating/destroying.
The energy was the universe. It was all the Universe was, and would ever be. As for energy not being able to be created and destroyed 1/?
It cooled off. The sub-atomic quantum particles that existed slowly and gradually started to clump together, eventually forming atoms, 2/?
And other forms of matter. Matter is just bound energy, and when those bonds break, matter returns to being energy. So to speak
NipplesInAJar
does that matter much to you?
Does it matter to you what matters to him? Seriously? Stay out of people's business
As a matter of fact I saw this coming. It was just a matter of time.
At least you know what kind of consequences you can expect acting the way you do. There's hope for you yet

If everyone's the same age as the universe how can someone be the youngest person in the universe?

RobBobertyYT
Matter/energy can not be created but even that looks false with the possibility of zero point energy.
CrazyGuyOnABike
Not easily. But at the very least, matter + energy are constant, so it still is valid.
spidrvampyre
Yeah, I think he meant Energy.
wait what
valen00
E = MC ^2 mate. Matter and energy are interchangeable. The sun is turning mass (hydrogen) into energy by making helium (2 hydrogens become
1 helium, that helium is a bit lighter than the hydrogens, the difference comes out as energy) the carbon in your body was made from fusing
Fuckloads of hydrogen together until you get carbon. Anything like iron or heavier actually takes more energy to make than it produces
MajyykPhD
The elements you're made of and the bonds that connect them in the pattern of genetic material you inherited are young and new. The carbon
that makes up your body as well as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorous, and other trace elements were all once stardust
There is no old and young
There is, because we can clearly demonstrate their differences. In a cosmic, energetic sense though, no. Time is younger than energy
