Video started off incorrect though as our solar system is part of the smaller Sagittarius galaxy (also a pinwheel galaxy) oriented 90 degrees off the Milky Way ecliptic plane). We just happen to be within the Milky Way bands just now but we are on the big midway ferris wheel ride to the heavens! Last Edited by Big Duke6 on 11/18/2017 11:59 AM |

(OP) User ID: 75783496 Canada 11/18/2017 12:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Laniakea Supercluster encompasses approximately 100,000 galaxies stretched out over 160 megaparsecs (520 million light-years). It has the approximate mass of 1017 solar masses, or a hundred thousand times that of our galaxy, which is almost the same as that of the Horologium Supercluster. It consists of four subparts, which were known previously as separate superclusters: Virgo Supercluster, the part in which the Milky Way resides. Hydra-Centaurus Supercluster the Great Attractor, the Laniakea central gravitational point near Norma Antlia Wall, known as Hydra Supercluster Centaurus Supercluster Pavo-Indus Supercluster Southern Supercluster, including Fornax Cluster (S373), Dorado and Eridanus clouds The most massive galaxy clusters of Laniakea are Virgo, Hydra, Centaurus, Abell 3565, Abell 3574, Abell 3521, Fornax, Eridanus and Norma. The entire supercluster consists of approximately 300 to 500 known galaxy clusters and groups. The real number may be much larger because some of these are traversing the Zone of Avoidance, making them essentially undetectable. Superclusters are some of the universe's largest structures and have boundaries that are difficult to define, especially from the inside. The team used radio telescopes to map the motions of a large collection of local galaxies. Within a given supercluster, most galaxy motions will be directed inward, toward the center of mass. In the case of Laniakea, this gravitational focal point is called the Great Attractor, and influences the motions of the Local Group of galaxies, where the Milky Way galaxy resides, and all others throughout the supercluster. Unlike its constituent clusters, Laniakea is not gravitationally bound and is projected to be torn apart by dark energy. Last Edited by Anubis on 11/18/2017 12:01 PM |

Those who wish to look beyond our existence often tend to do so at their own peril. Spend time searching the fantastic thing that we call the eye. It's amazing. I'm a biochemist so I tend to dote on things that aren't possible without an intelligent design. I could go on, but feel that the human eye alone is proof that we were designed. I catch all grades of shit and am constantly in passionate discussions with those who disagree. I think you're a MORON to assume that your biochemical pathways evolved rather than they were designed.

So many aspects of humanity that aren't possible without intelligent design. As a biochemist, I've had this argument with MANY people. They always lose. Our body/biochemsitry is too specific for it to be relegated to chance. Sorry, but there's no fucking way for us to be born of chance. Ouch for the bitches that wish to derail me. I would LOVE people to engage me in debate!!!
