Even if sagitarius Alpha expanded at the speed of light it would take millions of years to reach us, by that time we would have figured out how to travel to other galaxies or we would be dead

That's all part of the plan. Cry wolf enough times and nobody will believe when it really comes. Could you imagine the chaos that would ensue if everybody knew the world was going to face a major cataclysm? You may think those in power are wrong for concealing this information, but it's actually for the greater good.
Jaxson Adams
The same thing that caused every world reset in the history, that all our ancestors have tried to warn us about and has been spoken of throughout the ages.
It's funny how no matter how far humanity progresses, there will always be stupid people. As evidenced by you: the same "The end is nigh" types that have been spreading hysteria during medieval times continue to exist in supposedly enlightened times such as ours. And there are not few. Maybe mankind is fundamentally flawed and ultimately destined to fail.

Even NASA is discussing Planet X now. It's going to be discovered soon.
What makes you think the proposed orbit of a still yet undiscovered planet is correct? What if it's orbit suddenly changes as it gets closer to earth? What if it's mass, gravitational pull and magneticism pull an army of asteroids from the kuiper belt and send them straight towards earth?
Planet X once it nears the sun in it's 10-20,000 year orbit. Which strangely enough happens to coincide with the timelines of cataclysms spoken of by ancient civilizations.

If sagittarius a expanded at the speed of light then we'd only find out about it when it hit us. It could have started doing exactly that many years ago and be about to reach us, for all we know.
David Moore
In that case we would have already seen it approaching, the fact that it happened millions of years ago doesn't make it invisible nor intangible
Julian Cox

Sagittarius A is only at 26000 years light away, "it's not that far" relatively speaking.

You see something when light from it hits you, user. If the thing itself was expanding at the speed of light then no information from it would reach us before it did.

Not that user, but we would be able to tell it's expanding at the speed of light and how long ago it started doing so.
Leo Brooks
You might want to learn some basic physics before calling people retarded. Information of any kind can only propagate from an event at the speed of light. In other words, if Sagittarius A suddenly started expanding at the speed of light the soonest possible time we could learn about it would be ~26,000 years later, when the light from it hit us. Since it is then expanding at the speed of light itself, this is also exactly the same time it would hit us. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_cone Try reading chapter 2 of this: fisica.net/relatividade/stephen_hawking_a_brief_history_of_time.pdf , or even better the whole book. It doesn't require any prior knowledge.

You can't be sure about it, that's the difference between you virgin retard and a chad scientist, the chad doesn't make any claims, just theorizes until truth is reached.
Not him but wouldn't it expand so much change the way the galaxy's put together in a very drastic way? I don't know if we would notice those changes before though
Liam Cruz
user we can already witness Sagittarius how it was 26k years ago, we would be able to tell the moment it started expanding at the speed of light, however you're right that it would probably hit us shortly after.
Alexander Miller

I don't think there's a single way we can rationalize how we got here outside "it just happened" no matter how you look at it. You can only keep asking "well why did that happen" to whatever started everything.
Justin Young
Both of you are technically right If the black hole started suddenly expanding at the speed of light, like from 0 to speed of light, then we wouldn't know, as the light containing the information that it is expanding is traveling at the same speed as the black hole BUT if the speed increase were gradual, then we would be able to know
Cameron Williams

basically, our universe is the way it is because of underlying quantum fields that give rise to fundamental particles however there is a possibility that the default lowest energy state of one of the quantum fields isn't it's actual possible lowest state, and that by some event the field could enter the actual possible lowest energy state somewhere in the universe if this happened or would create a chain reaction that would travel from the initial point at the speed of light and erase all of that fields particles as it gets to the lower energy state this would basically mean total anihilation of matter as we know it, and it could've already happened, even at numerous points in space, and we won't ever know it until it instantly erases us
Mason Watson
Here's an EXTREMELY simplified analogy. Bubble in pic related = Our universe. Spike = Something which disrupts the current relative stability of it.
We've already been to Europe, there's no intelligent life there.
Parker Sanders
That's a much different scenario than how the fuck the universe came into existence. >muh big bang And what created that which caused the big bang? And if that is answered, what created that which created that which caused the big bang? It just goes on and on. There is no answer.
Bentley Lewis
No we literally wouldn't. We'd potentially see it speeding UP TO that point, but if it suddenly started going at that speed we would have no way of knowing because the light would hit us at the same time it would.
Samuel Evans
Europe =/= Europa
Jayden Myers
Yes, I agree with you, should've specified I didn't think the scenario was about sudden acceleration to speed of light.
You are an idiot who still thinks in narrow minded concepts of time. You probably think that human history is a long time. Think about how much we have discovered in the last 1000 years. Think about how much we will grow in the next 10 000 or 10 million years If given enough time we could become the eldritch lovecraftian gods
Charles Rivera
Probably, but any possible changes from it can only propagate at the speed of light. If it happened right now it could only affect us in any way ~26,000 years from now. If it happened ~26,000 years ago then it would be about to affect us right now. An object exactly half way between us would have been engulfed ~13,000 years ago, but the light from that would also take another ~13,000 years to reach us, so it doesn't let us find out any faster. Get it? Yes, so we know for sure it didn't suddenly start expanding at c before that moment that we can currently see. But if it started expanding at c a few moments after what we can see right now, then from our perspective it would just go from where it is now to us instantly. There would be no way for us to see it coming.
Mason Gutierrez
At least if I die I know (or don't know since it's instant) that all life in the universe dies with me.
Wyatt Moore
We don't know. yet
Lincoln Rivera
As long as the chain reaction is limited to the speed of light would not the expansion of the universe prevent that from ever reaching us anyway, as long as it happens far away enough for the expansion to counteract it? And since there is nothing we can do about it it really isn't worth thinking about. It's just an anxiety trap on the same level as "what if the rapture happened tomorrow"?
Matthew Jenkins
Whatever helps you sleep at night. Go add another dimension to your math, I'm sure this time it will finally explain everything. And when something contradicts your prediction you will come up with dark *random word* and ask for more funds to keep researching understand what this new and exiciting breakthrough actually is.
Or what if we get hit by a gamma ray burst? Or what if we don’t notice a massive asteroid heading for us? Anxiety traps suck
Chase Cox
no claims, we just don't know. yet. you can't simply claim you understand how future humans will perceive or what they will unfold about the universe. We simply don't know. yet
>There is no answer. "Nothing" spontainiously becomes "Something" due to quantum bullshit which then chain reacts into a large explosion of 'everything' is my current theory. Although calling it a theory is a gross misuse of the term as i've quite obviously not put much thought into it.
