I often wonder why humanity exists or how this entire life experience started in the first place. There are many concepts that I cannot wrap my head around. Two of these are the concept of "infinity" and the second being the concept of "nothing." I just don't get how there could ever be nothing. If at one point, nothing existed; wouldn't it stay that way forever? Infinity is interesting because it implies that there is no end. What if we were able to communicate with something that can move faster than the speed of light? What would it eventually see when it reaches an endpoint? What if you doubled that speed? What would there be on the other side of the horizon? It just doesn't make sense.
History is dishonest, but that isn't the fault of history. It's just human nature. Think about it like this - A crowd is watching as you and an enemy of yours get into a fight, the event ends and everyone goes their separate ways. You, your enemy, and the crowd watching all write books on the event. Each book is very different because each writer has a different perspective on the event that unfolded. Some of those books will never get read, while others will be shaped into lectures and studied upon shaping the views that the next generation will have on the past event. So when we study history, we are studying an individual's perspective on the event that took place, and not the event itself. What if someone writes about a creative idea and it gets misinterpreted as a past event, and then we study it as if actually happened? With this in mind, I wonder if we actually landed on the moon. Before assuming that I'm just another conspiracy theorist, give me a chance and hear me out. NASA claims that they landed a crew on the moon on July 20, 1969. The first call using the cell phone took place in 1973 and cell phones didn't publicly become available for another decade. The first version of the internet, known as ARPANET wasn't invented until 1983. The moon is 238, 900 miles away from Earth, but somehow NASA had the ability to communicate with humans on the moon. Mind you, in 1995 it took about 30 minutes to send an email from one computer to another if they were in the same room. So please, how is this possible?!
Let's talk about Voyager 2. NASA claims this space probe was launched into space on August 20, 1977. They claim this probe is still out there collecting data and you can see its current stats here. Considering the rate at which space expands; the speed of data transmission would have to be faster than the speed of space expansion for Earth to be able to receive the data. How the hell did we have the technology to support this in 1977, while in 2020 I still have a hard time getting wifi in my bedroom.
It might be time to question your own reality instead of taking someone else's word for it.
Stay rad! Be Happy!
