How Can Galaxies Move Away Faster Than Speed of Light?

Einstein's Theory of Relativily: says that the speed of light - 300,000 km/s - is the maximum speed that anything can travel in the Universe. It requires more and more energy to approach the speed of light. You could use up all the energy in the Universe and still not be traveling at light speed.
As you know, most of the galaxies in the Universe are expanding away from us because of the Big Bang, and the subsequent effects of dark energy, which is providing an additional accelerating force on the expansion of the Universe.
Galaxies, like our own Milky Way are carried along by the expansion of the Universe, and will move apart from every other galaxy, unless they're close enough to hold together with gravity.
As you look at galaxies further and further away, they appear to be moving faster and faster away from us. And it is possible that they could eventually appear to be moving away from us faster than the speed of light. At that point, light leaving the distant galaxy would never reach us.
When that happens, the distant galaxy would just fade away as the last of the photons reached Earth, and then we would never know it was ever there. This sounds like it breaks Einstein's theories but it doesn't. The galaxies themselves aren't actually moving very quickly through space, it's the space itself which is expanding away, and the galaxy is being carried along with it. As long as the galaxy doesn't try to move quickly through space, no physical laws are broken.
One sad side effect of this expansion is that most of the galaxies will have receded over this horizon in about 3 trillion years, and future cosmologists will never know there's a great big Universe out there.

The Question That Cannot Be Answered!!!

Q: What is beyond the Universe?
A: It's a question that cannot be answered as of today and we won't know for a very long...long...long...time.

I'm just one of many many people desire for this answer.

The Tallest Topiary in The World

Green and awesomely tall, a shrub growing 61 feet (18.59 m.), it is amazing. When Moirangthem Okendra Kumbi of Manipur returned home after getting his degree of B.Sc. Agri. (Hons.) from Meerut University, in 1983, he found a small plant on a mustard oil tin planted by his sister. The plant was a kind of shrub Manipuris use to grow as fencing to their gardens, so they called it Samban-Lei (Samban means fencing and Lei means flower), its Hindi name is Nilakantha (Sky flower) and Botanical Name is Duranta repens Linn.

Ca Dao, Tục Ngử....Bất Hủ

Thò tay em bứt cọng ngò

Anh xấu như bò,bỏ chó nó chê.

Ấy vậy mà em lại mê.

Nửa đêm thanh vắng dắt dê vào nhà

Hôm qua anh đến nhà em

Ra về mới nhớ rằng quên cái quần.

Em được thì cho anh xin

Chớ đừng đem cất ,làm tin trong nhà

Nửa đêm bóng xế trăng tà

Lại đêm ra ngắm để mà nhớ anh

Ngắm rồi đem cất để dành

Khi nào anh tới đòi anh trăm ngàn...

+Cá không ăn muối cá khôn

Con cãi cha mẹ, khôn hồn đi luôn

+Trên đồng cạn dưới đồng sâu

Chồng cày dzợ cấy , con trâu đứng dzòm

+Một cây làm chẵng nên non

Ba cây chụm lại ta xây hàng rào

+Trâu ơi ta bảo trâu này

Trâu ra ngoài ruộng, trâu cày mình trâu.

Cấy cày bổn phận con trâu,

Ta đang bận.. nhậu, còn lâu mới cày.

Trâu ơi ta bảo trâu này

Trâu ra ngoài núi trâu nằm với ta

Để cho bà dzợ ở nhà

Đú đa,đú đỡn chồng bà cạnh bên

+ầu ơ ..con ngủ cho ngoan ..

Mẹ chơi tứ xắc ...lấy tiền nuôi con

Thức khuya mới thấy hao dầu

Yêu anh mới biết anh ngầu như.. ma

+Ai đưa con sáo sang sông ??

Ðem lên thành phố ...nướng trui phát thèm

Nếu biết là em đã có chồng

Anh về cắt NÓ thả trôi sông

Của anh lênh đênh theo dòng nước

Trôi đến nhà em có lượm không.

Yêu nhau trái ấu cũng tròn.

Ghét nhau đôi dép dẫu mòn cũng chia.

Má ơi đừng gả con xa.

Cỡ chừng bên Mỹ hay canada được rồi.

Má ơi cố gả con xa

Càng xa càng có dollar gửi về ...

+Má ơi dung gả con xa

Hôm qua mùng 8 tháng 3

Chị em phụ nữ nghênh ngang ra vào

Nam nhi kính cẩn cúi chào

Chị em phụ nữ ra vào nghênh ngang

Hôm nay mùng 9 tháng 3

Chị em phụ nữ nghênh ngang ra vào

Nam nhi chẳng cúi chẳng chào

Đạp cho một cái lộn nhào xuống mương ..

Bây giờ mận mới hỏi đào

Vườn hồng đã có ai vào hay chưa?

Mận hỏi thì đào xin thưa

Vườn hồng đã có búa xua người vào

Học nhiều cũng chẳng khá hơn ai

Bụng phệ , mắt mờ , đít lại chai

Em ngó , em rầu , em phát chán

Chị nhìn , chị nản , chị chê bai

Về nhà vợ rủa : đồ ăn hại

Xuống phố ngưòi than : gã xí trai

Vạn sự khởi đầu nan, gian nan bắt đầu nản......

Ta về ta tắm ao ta

Cỗi truồng tuốt luốt,ai mà cười chê

Đi học là đi tu

Ngồi học là ngồi tù

Sách vở là kẻ thù

Thầy cô là đối thủ

Hận đời em muốn đi tu

Ra đến ngoài ngơ nhớ u lại về

-Khôn ba năm dại nữa giờ ... biết dzậy dại sớm .... khỏi chờ 3 năm.

-Tóc em dài em cài hoa bí

Miệng em cười nhu ngựa hí trường đua.

Tóc em dài em cài bông hoa huệ

Miệng em cười như cái hủ mắm nêm

Why?

Why are there 7 days in a week?

One viable theory correlates the seven day week to the seven (astrological) "planets" known to the ancients: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn. The number seven does not seem an obvious choice to match lunar or solar periods, however. A solar year could be more evenly divided into weeks of 5 days, and the moon phases five-day and six-day weeks make a better short term fit (6 times 5 is 30) to the lunar (synodic) month (of about 29.53 days) than the current week (4 times 7 is 28). The seven-day week may have been chosen because its length approximates one moon phase (one quarter = 29.53 / 4 = 7.3825).

Monday = Moon

Tuesday = Mars

Wednesday = Mercury

Thursday = Jupiter

Friday = Venus

Saturday = Saturn

Sunday = Sun

Believe It Or Not?

It took 386 million tons of rock in order to completed The World (in Dubai, UAE). The World is a development of 300 man-made islands built off the coast of Dubai. It's purpose to create a map of the world in the form of man-made islands. The only way to get to and from the islands will be by boat or air as there will be no roads leading to the islands, the ultimate in privacy. The cost of the islands average between $15-$50 US million, but the most expensive costs around $250 US million, and if you want to buy one you must be invited to do so. The World was completed on Jan 10 2008.

How are Black Holes Formed?
Black Holes are formed when matter collapses in on itself catastrophically so that more than a critical quantity of mass is concentrated into a particularly small region. At the centre of this region is a point of infinitely dense matter known as a singularity.

Q: Who is the heaviest person ever lived?

A: John Brower Minnoch (1941-1983) of Bainbridge Island, Washington, USA, weighed 976 pounds (443 kilograms) in 1976. It was estimated that he weighed more than 1,387 pounds (630 kilograms) when he was rushed to the hospital in 1978 with heart and respiratory failure.
