re: #214 Summer

It’s amazing…it’s an explosion we can see from, literally, the dawn of the Universe. There are so many variables at play with why we see greater energy releases the further we go back in time. In a sense, if you take the curvature of space and the expanding space dynamic into account, this happened far closer to the center than we are seeing it now. But to think about it, you really have to wrap your head around a more than three dimensional space fabric. =) As the universe expanded, the “location” of the blast “moved” with it as well.

I think…. =)

I wonder what the redshift was on that explosion. Probably some insane number. =)
