WHAT IF=? Has anyone combined ALL of the known naturally occurring elements together? if so what was the result? What's the difference if they are combine- In equal parts? In parts proportion to their atomic weights? -lowest to highest? -Highest to lowest? WHAT IF=? We made an array of "dishes" or "collectors" all made from a different element, used whatever is collected by each of these different "dishes" and then combined the outputs in different ways and ratios to see what (information/data) we get??? Going back to the previous WHAT IF=? We made a collector of all elements (of different logical ratios), what would we get or collect? -Barrett WHAT IF=? http://www.barrettscustomleather.com/physics.html -----Original Message----- From: Utah-Astronomy [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of BWFlowers Sent: Friday, June 27, 2014 10:50 AM To: 'Utah Astronomy' Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Opaque vs Transparent= EXPLAINATION of why... For those of you that have and haven't read my postulate at http://www.barrettscustomleather.com/physics.html, this is directly related to that and I will explain what this original question is about, so please bare with me on this. Dark Matter/Dark Energy makes up most of what the universe is made up of (according to many academics). The term DARK MATTER/Dark Energy refers to some unknown force or matter that we have no idea what it is. Hence the term DARK meaning UNKNOWN. I am trying to figure out what the DARK is. My personal postulate on this (in short) is- DARK is matter or energy that is traveling faster than the "Universal Speed Limit" or light speed. I asset that matter and energy DOES exist at hyper light and hyper gravitational pull speeds and it is in fact to achieve these hyper speeds without breaking any of the current "laws" of physics. Most physics equations are simple and elegant at their base- E=MC2, v/i*r, etc. The KISS principle is alive and well and I suspect that explaining hyper light/gravity speeds are equally simple, once it is figured out- via thought and practical basic experiments. PROBABLY the hyper light and hyper gravity and hyper physical matter is transformed into something entirely different from what we might envision?, or does it all become the "same thing"? I have a few ideas and I am trying to find some way to start working on them and start proofing my postulates. To this end, does anyone locally happen to have several good prisms and a set of polarizing lenses that I could borrow or buy VERY reasonably? (expanding on the experiment with the two slits in the box with light shining thru and showing the interference patterns.) At this time, I am working on the assumption that when light and gravity exceed the Universal Speed Limit, they both become "Dark Matter and Dark Energy". I believe that they both exist and that they can be usefully "put to work". I'd rather believe this, than the UNIVERSAL SPEED LIMIT, because if the SPEED limit is in fact a FACT, then we will never be able to travel to other solar systems or even other galaxies. Remember back when the irrefutable facts were- the earth is flat. The earth is the center of the universe. Etc etc. If matter and or energy can in fact travel FASTER than the "SpeedLimit", then there must be a fundamental change in the matter and energy when it does Break The Speed Limit. Does it become anti-light and anti-gravity and anti-matter or something altogether different? IS there a difference between Dark Matter and Dark Energy or are they the same thing? I also believe that we can someday harness and use this energy/matter. At that point such small things as depleting energy sources, environmental changes, and real space travel will be old hat and not a concern anymore. Does " Opaque vs Transparent" have anything to do with this? I don't know, but it's one avenue that I am checking into. I am trying to prove that light is not a particle that acts like a wave or a wave that acts like a particle= to me this is preposterous. At hyper light speeds, does light and gravity become the same thing or are they totally different forces? Gravitational pull of heavenly bodies (sun, earth etc- apples falling down instead of UP is a different gravity than the Universal Gravity, if I am correct) So is this thread appropriate to this forum? I believe so, and to that end I am asking interested parties to join in, both pro and con- just as long as you can keep an open mind about the topic and not get locked into the idea that hyper light/gravity speeds are impossible. *IF* were are in fact locked at those speed limits, then mankind's personal exploration of the universe just plain ain't gonna happen, and I can't accept that. So- with all of that in mind- who wants to play? :) -Barrett http://www.barrettscustomleather.com/physics.html -----Original Message----- From: Utah-Astronomy [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Chuck Hards Sent: Friday, June 27, 2014 9:25 AM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Opaque vs Transparent Oh man, college physics was 35 years ago. You're making my brain hurt. Assuming visible wavelengths? And measuring in angstroms, or atomic radii? One phosphorus nucleus, for example, is as thick as 4 hydrogen nuclei (in terms of covalent radius). Crystalline structured materials probably also have an interference effect on light at such scales. I'm going to think about this while contemplating that one atom in my fingernail could be an entire universe, man. Like, wow, dude...

Just as a pure curiosity question, that I have not been able to google successfully, and for clarity I will word the same question a couple of different ways-
What ELEMENT is the most opaque? Meaning- How thin can the most opaque element be before it will allow light to penetrate it at any level?
