I’m just a simple man, trying to make his way in the universe.

Looks like a really fun project, now I want to build one! What's that structure you're laying the bricks on called?

EM and gravity waves don’t really interact like you suggest, but you could label gravitational lensing as a kind of emergent effect. High mass galactic or even stellar clusters can bend light (EM waves) from behind them, such that an observer could see objects not normally visible.

If EM did interact directly with gravity as you’d like, we would know a lot more about dark matter.

The higgs particle itself isn’t important, it’s the higgs field that makes the world go 'round. The way I understand it, is the field permeates all of space and time (like all other fields) and the particle appears at places of high disruptions in the field, like what the LHC created.

Now, I’m no PhD, so take this with heaps of salt.

Hypothetically speaking, what alterations to our biology/genome would need to occur in order for us to be able to safely drink saltwater?

Could we, in theory, use something like CRISPR to give a new baby replacement super-kidneys (or whatever organ it is that makes drinking saltwater be a bad time)? It seems like if we cracked that, we’d be set as a species....

Or just eat the seaweed. Tons of nutrients in there. Plus it tastes great as a salad!

At that point in Earth’s history, the atmosphere was a lot more oxygen rich than it is now! This allowed all sorts of creatures to grow to immense sizes, like trees, insects and dinosaurs. Dinos like Brontosaurus probably grew large for the same reasons Giraffes did too. The best greenery is the one no one else can get to!

Bruh, there’s no way you can take on the greatest military machine in history.

Yes, but only slightly. Zoom in and you’ll see they’re not all lined up. And then, where exactly on Mars is the origin placed? What hemisphere? Which way do we now define as up?
