+1 general relativity.

good read, thanks for posting.

does that mean if you travel against the twisted gravity vortex of earth it takes more energy to travel faster?

The mass of Earth dimples this fabric, much like a heavy person sitting in the middle of a trampoline.

lol trolling scientists.

you know they wanted to say "husky".

also, +1 for good read. Awesome stuff.

black hole gyroscopes...alright!

SCIENCE!

Would be more exciting if we didn't already know that cunt Albert was right all the time anyway

Albert didn't believe in quantum physics. We need another Albert to tie relativity and quantum physics together. Then we would be cooking.

BREAKING NEWS: TURNS OUR 80+ YEAR OLD PREDICTIONS WERE PRETTY MUCH RIGHT

It's still all predictions in the end. Nothing's 100% but just the closest we currently can guess.

Edit: I didn't mean that about the article. I found the article really interesting and enjoyed it while very bored at work.
