What is at the edge of space?

Called the “Kármán line”, it marks the beginning of space at 100 km above Earth's mean sea level. All of these definitions, Horner says, are “equally as good as each other and equally bad as each other.

What is behind the edge of space?

Definition. The FAI uses the term Kármán line to define the boundary between aeronautics and astronautics: Aeronautics: For FAI purposes, aerial activity, including all air sports, within 100 km of Earth's surface. Astronautics: For FAI purposes, activity more than 100 km above Earth's surface.

What is at the end of space?

Scientists now consider it unlikely the universe has an end – a region where the galaxies stop or where there would be a barrier of some kind marking the end of space. But nobody knows for sure.

Can you go to the edge of space?

Unfortunately, since universe is technically expanding faster than the speed of light (due to the expansion of space between matter), it is theoretically impossible to ever reach the “edge” of the universe, since it will always be moving away faster than we could ever move towards it!

What is Edge of the universe?

As far as we can tell, there is no edge to the universe. Space spreads out infinitely in all directions. Furthermore, galaxies fill all of the space through-out the entire infinite universe. This conclusion is reached by logically combining two observations.

Does space ever end?

No, they don't believe there's an end to space. However, we can only see a certain volume of all that's out there. Since the universe is 13.8 billion years old, light from a galaxy more than 13.8 billion light-years away hasn't had time to reach us yet, so we have no way of knowing such a galaxy exists.

How cold is space?

The Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite has refined temperature measurements taken way back in 1964. According to data from the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite, the temperature of space is 2.725K (2.725 degrees above absolute zero).

How many universes are there?

In a new study, Stanford physicists Andrei Linde and Vitaly Vanchurin have calculated the number of all possible universes, coming up with an answer of 10^10^16.

How far back in time can we see?

We can see light from 13.8 billion years ago, although it is not star light – there were no stars then. The furthest light we can see is the cosmic microwave background (CMB), which is the light left over from the Big Bang, forming at just 380,000 years after our cosmic birth.

What does space smell like?

A succession of astronauts have described the smell as '… a rather pleasant metallic sensation ... [like] ... sweet-smelling welding fumes', 'burning metal', 'a distinct odour of ozone, an acrid smell', 'walnuts and brake pads', 'gunpowder' and even 'burnt almond cookie'.

Is time Travelling possible?

Yes, time travel is indeed a real thing. But it's not quite what you've probably seen in the movies. Under certain conditions, it is possible to experience time passing at a different rate than 1 second per second. And there are important reasons why we need to understand this real-world form of time travel.

Is there another universe?

We currently have no evidence that multiverses exists, and everything we can see suggests there is just one universe — our own.

Is there color in space?

Color does not change in space, because the wavelengths remain the same. Although you can see all the colors of the rainbow, plus every color mixture from those colors, you only have three color detectors in your eyes. These color detectors, called cones, have a preference for a particular type of light.

Whats at the end of a black hole?

The boundary of a black hole is its event horizon. It is not a physical edge. It's just a point in space beyond which it is impossible to escape the black hole's gravity. Once anything falling into the black hole passes the event horizon, it can never leave the black hole again.

Can we see the future in space?

Now scientists have used the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to look thousands of years into the future. Looking at the heart of Omega Centauri, a globular cluster in the Milky Way, they have calculated how the stars there will move over the next 10 000 years.

Can we see 14 billion light-years away?

We will never see the light from objects that are currently more than 15 billion light years away, because the universe is still expanding. We are losing 20,000 stars every second to an area that will forever remain beyond our future view.

What is above omniverse?

Beyond the Omniverse

The Omniverse exists in the surrounding emptiness known as The Outside, a void of virtual nothingness. Whatever may lie outside of these concepts is simply referred to as Beyond, one of the many iterations contained by Transcendentem.

Do bodies decay in space?

Inorganic remains. Normally, the organic component will decompose, and so the skeletons we see in museums are mostly the inorganic remnants. But in very acidic soils, which we may find on other planets, the reverse can happen and the inorganic component can disappear leaving only the soft tissues.

How much time on Earth is 1 hour in space?

The first planet they land on is close to a supermassive black hole, dubbed Gargantuan, whose gravitational pull causes massive waves on the planet that toss their spacecraft about. Its proximity to the black hole also causes an extreme time dilation, where one hour on the distant planet equals 7 years on Earth.

Why can't you see the Sun in space?

Because space is a near-perfect vacuum — meaning it has exceedingly few particles — there's virtually nothing in the space between stars and planets to scatter light to our eyes.
