A solution to cosmological constant problem?
This division by number of "atoms" results in energy per "atom", while the observed low value of energy density is energy per volume. These two numbers have different units. How can they be compared?
-
A solution to cosmological constant problem?
I see. Would you elaborate, why a density, which already represents a value divided by volume, is further divided by number of the "atoms" in the universe?
-
A solution to cosmological constant problem?
Can you elaborate on the second possibility? When they divide the volume of the universe by the volume of proton, if the former increases, wouldn't the ratio increase?

A solution to cosmological constant problem?
This hypothesis predicts that cosmological constant grows as the scale factor a(t), doesn't it? Or, rather, as a cube of this factor?

Harris vs Trump;
He may: my wife's brother, a registered PA Republican, wrote to her a couple of days ago, "I’m making a Felon - Hillbilly - 2024 sign today to post near our township election location. It’ll be my first democratic vote since McGovern in 1972."

Can the general public not be trained to administer flu shots to each other?
Why "to each other" and not to themselves?

Does science provide a path to a meaningful life?
Perhaps in SFn his posts would go to Speculations while Galileo's ones would be in the Sciences.
-
A solution to cosmological constant problem?
Do I understand correctly that this is a Speculation rather than a science of Astronomy and Cosmology?

Does science provide a path to a meaningful life?
What do you think about Giordano Bruno in this respect?

Parameters of Theory of everything.
The reason is given in the post above yours:
-
Parameters of Theory of everything.
No, it does not. Ditto. No, they cannot.

A simplified explanation of quantum pseudo-telepathy
No, it is not. Your examples do not employ quantum entanglement.

Harris vs Trump;
My way of dealing with that is simple: ignore and vote. My wife and I voted a few weeks ago.
-
Harris vs Trump;
I don't think it is a factor for many of his supporters. Certainly not for this relative of mine, writing in his email three days ago,

The closer to the speed of light, the more length contraction in the direction of motion (SRT).
Yes, of course. They should be attached to something, e.g., two galaxies.
-
The closer to the speed of light, the more length contraction in the direction of motion (SRT).
It is the same. Shortening of the moving object is shortening of the distance between two ends of the object, i.e., between two spatial points. In any case, distance between two points in a frame where they move is shorter than distance between them in a frame where they are at rest.
-
The closer to the speed of light, the more length contraction in the direction of motion (SRT).
It is shortening of a distance between two spatial points. It happens at any speed and does not depend on what is there between the points.

Examples of Awesome, Unexpected Beauty in Nature
This rock is constantly pounded by waves. I watch it wondering, how long until the "neck" will break.

Ignoring a member's posts
When I choose to ignore a member's posts, their posts still appear in the Activities list, e.g., Is it possible to make them disappear from my view?

Strange happenings
Or something out of focus moving on or in front of the camera lens.

Strange happenings
In these videos, I don't see that the path is not parabolic and that it is at a constant speed.

Strange happenings
If it is small, dark, and fast, the camera and we don't see it, except maybe a white spot on a tail. Its body jumps straight, but the tail might zig-zag.

Strange happenings
I don't think it is an insect. Maybe a small rodent?

Plagiarism, kind of
Sigh... My cheating cousin - see above - just sent me email with the following closing sentence:

Did God intend for people to have children after the departure from Eden?
I don't like it either, but apparently there is no rule against it. OTOH, it is easy to ignore.
