    Actually, we know everything there is happening in solar system. What we don’t know requires energies or distances or times incomparable with human life.

      We don’t know why space spawns. We don’t know why the sun’s corona is hotter than its surface. We don’t know why the sun spins faster around its equator than at its poles. We don’t know why shampoo makes strange squiggles when being poured out of its bottle. Just four things off the top of my head.

      That’s one of the most confidently idiotic things I’ve read in a hot minute. Congratulations.

        It’s actually a pretty decent list of unanswered questions. The more we know the more we learn new questions.

        Like why there’s anything at all when the matter and antimatter should have annihilated itself.

        Or if there’s positive or negative curvature to space time at the (open or closed universe)

        Or what is dark matter and dark energy.

        Or unifying quantum physics with general relativity.

        And so on.

          That’s the point. It’s not accurate that we always knew how complex these were. The more we learn, the more we learn how complex these things are. The example of spiritual explanations is the most reductive and frankly that is where our understanding started. This conversation has really devolved here in typical Lemmy fashion.
