For the commanders interested in the astronomy part of Elite Dangerous, here's Emily Levesque with some interesting, down-to-earth lecture on some stars. At least one of those you might have visited yourself, commander!

Now, the astronomy part....
- Thread starter Aeorath
- Start date
Don Lincoln of Fermilab on the expansion of universe, more interesting stuff for the astronomer in you, commander.

This is one of the more interesting videos I have stumbled upon recently:

And a new one, for the people inclined to know more.

Can someone tell me why I can't see these video thumbnails here but I can on other sites (like Steam)?
Try to look in account settings in here, maybe there's something related to that in there?

Gigantic Supernova Remnant Lurking in Space Is Largest Discovery of Its Kind
It's amazing what can be lurking out there in space, hidden by the limitations of our eyes, our technology, and our preconceptions.

Much appreciated, I will watch it tonight.
Still pretty sure time is just layers stacking on top of each other, that we perhaps can at some point dig through backwards and visit past without changing it.
Call it "atoms of time" if you want to.
Just something that came to my head in philosophy-class at school over 20 years ago, when talking about time and space.

Btw, could there be some connection with speed of light being limited in speed at space but not distance, as gravity is limited by distance but not by amount it could appear in?
This might provide some answers.
Einstein's Theory of General Relativity
Here we explore what the theory of general relativity is and how it affects space-time.

Yes but I don´t still see there a connection between gravity and speed of light in space time continuum some way.
Say, could black matter or energy affect these, or could they affect each others in more ways than we think (yes I know gravity bends light).
Maybe they could limit each other, and when we solve this, we get FTL travel?
Speed of light slows the more ‘stuff’ it passes through. I remember reading somewhere about it being slow enough to skate ahead of if you were to shine it through ???? and could survive the experience of the frozen ???? The ? being some gas that’s hard to make into frozen liquid or something. Glad to help science here. I may be completely wrong but intend to help.
All we need to do now is reverse rubidium, then we can travel back in time. Christ, we’ve solved everything ever and still can’t find bloody Raxxla.
Ah, Rubidium is used in cooling lasers which are needed to create Bose-Einstein condensate that can slow, even stop, light.
One of the first confirmed Bose-Einstein condensates was made of Rubidium atoms, but seems that the light stopping (and starting again!) stuff is sodium (damn this stupid language and its idiotic alternate names for elements like Natrium and Kalium!

Light Changed to Matter, Then Stopped and Moved
By converting light into matter and then back again, physicists have for the first time stopped a light pulse and then restarted it a small distance a
