Older than the universe? How does that work?

[-] DangerousWasabi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The universe appears to have a finite age in the Big Bang model and can be calculated to give an approximate value. Particles however, do not seem to have any correlation with time. The lifespan of a fundamental particle, without colliding with its anti-particle through annihilation, appears to be infinite.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
