Open Question: How to convince a Young Earth Creationist the world is Old.?

All scientific claims have to be validated by several independent people, the earth is 4.5 billion years old, the universe is 13.72 billion years old. It's not a matter of debate, many scientists have checked for them selves to validate it. Scientist are not a hive mind unlike many religious people, they work hard to disprove the work of their peers.

You can never convince someone to believe something they don't, don't waste your time trying. If it bothers you so much stay away from them but another persons beliefs shouldn't bother you.

Open Question: Earth gets closer to moon?

Open Question: Earth gets closer to moon?

On March 19th, the Moon will be the closest it has been to Earth in 18 years.

In fact, the Moon will only be 221,556 miles away! This event, called a lunar perigee, is a source of contention between scientists and astrological theorists. Some believe that having the Moon so close can cause all sorts of natural disasters, such as the 1938 New England hurricane, Cyclone Tracy in 1974, and Hurricane Katrina in 2005 - all events which fell on or near the appearance of a "SuperMoon."

Experts claim that most of this worries are completely unfounded. The biggest known change caused by a lunar perigee involves the Earth's ocean tides - high tides are higher than usual, and low tides are lower. Not so fast though! Dr. Victor Gostin of Adelaide University says there MAY also be a correlation between SuperMoons and tectonic activity! The nearer Moon may be associated with a shift in "Earth tides" which can trigger large-scale earthquakes near the Equator.

Time will tell who's right. Check out this article for more on this phenomenon and come to your own conclusions.

Well, how does today's satellites, like the reconnaissance/communication /earth observation satellites are space exploration. I guess overall how does the previous satellites i mentioned relate to space exploration, like in terms of what advantages they have tied to space exploration, if those satellites even do some type of space exploration.Answer Question
