I’m not even sure how much evidence there is past the galaxyspinning evidence

There was another article posted recently I can’t find now, that talked about the discrepancy between the age of the universe based on the Hubble constant, and what’s observed of the CMB, or something like that. Apparently that discrepancy can be resolved if the universe itself is rotating.

Really hoping someone can track it down and post up a link, I’m probably making hash of the actual article…

It’s the old nickname for an airplane that basically flies up high, then nosedives for a while. They originally set it up so astronauts could train in free-fall (since they’re, y’know, falling for a few minutes), though it seems like you can just hire them for whatever now.

I’m partial to Fall Out Boy, myself

That’s how they found Khan in Star Trek.

It’s a couple of Star Trek episodes too. Similar idea is how they found Khan.

Remember when you needed a bug shield to drive on the highway?
