This is a message for Cody. Go to my linerider account and look at Awesomeness7. It is really cool!
I don't want to bore anyone, but I am going to write down some of my theries about physics and space and stuff.
Theory #1:
I have heard that it takes eight minutes for light for light to get from the sun to earth. I also know that light travels at millions of miles per second. Therefor, if it takes light eight minutes to get here from the sun, for the earth to go all the way around the sun in 365 1/4 days we would have to be hurtling through space at several hundreds of miles per hour this very second.
Theory #2
A black hole is a long-gone star that has so much gravity that it pulls even light into it.(hence the term "black hole") So, if light can be affected by gravity, I think that light pointed up will go a little slower than light pointed down. Also, I think light would move slower on Jupiter and faster in open space. These speed variations would be minimal, but might be able to help answer questions about traveling at the speed of light.
This isn't a theory but I did a report on a telescope on earth that takes better pictures than the Hubble. There goes millions of dollars down the drain!
I'm up to 81 digits of pi now.

Tyler,
I like theory #2 - gravity affecting light!!! Brilliant!! Why can't gravity affect time also?
Grandma Ashby
Tyler you amaze me. I love you!

Tyler, you are too smart for me! Do you plan to become an astronomer or physicist and win the Nobel Prize? Now I must find some science books and learn how light can point different directions. Love from Grammie Elaine
Wanna email my mom the name and password? I kinda forgot.
