Freezy Things

Tue Jun 2, 2009, 2:02 PM
Hokay, a while back, some lady name Lene Something-Or-Other actually *slowed* light from about 186,000 miles per *second* to about 38 miles per *hour.* She is trying to stop light completely. I've read that physicists have succeeded in bringing it to a complete halt, but I'm not sure I believe that. First off, light, which behaves as a wave and a particle, has mass, and if you were to freeze the very tip of a beam of light, the rest of the beam would continue to shove the tip forward, right? Ya know? Momentum and all that crap? I kind of think of when you crash one billiards ball into another... And, assuming that didn't happen, you'd end up with and extreme concentration of light and mass in a singular point in space... So that got me thinking that maybe that's how black holes are born (: That'd be cool (:



And then I started thinking about freezing time... If you were to freeze time, the light waves would stop and you wouldn't be able to see anything... Unless you were moving super fast... Maybe... And that might distort everything... I think...



And then I started thinking about popsicles 'cause you freeze those, too ^^ Mmmm, popsicles ^^



Eh, I could be entirely wrong about everything I just said, which is a definite possiblity considering I'm only a senior in high school, a C student generally, and I lack a great undertanding of astrophysics, regular physics, the time-space continuum, and all that fancy jazz... But I'm fairly certain I'm not wrong about the popsicles... It's a pretty widely accepted fact that most people freeze popsicles before eating them...



Eh, I'll just let that bake your noodles for a bit (:



Or perhaps I'll let the freeze your noodles for a bit, haha (: ... BRAIN FREEZE!!!...



Hokay, have a marvelous day, all you deviants who took precious time out of your busy day to read my crackpot ramblings! ^^
