In essence, sound is actually a wave generated by the vibration of the object, the sound waves in the air is actually a "longitudinal wave"

In 2013, CERN discovered the existence of the Higgs boson for the first time.

The energy released by nuclear fusion is actually an important basis for stars to be able to maintain their stability

The Arecibo Radio Telescope in the United States used to be the largest radio telescope in the world, with a diameter of 350 meters. As the most powerful radio telescope ever built, scientists have achieved many scientific results with the radio Arecibo radio telescope in the past decades

The solar system is a system of celestial bodies kept in motion by the sun's gravity, which means that all bodies within the effective range of the sun's gravity are part of the solar system, so by this definition, how large is the solar system?

The universe is so unimaginably large that even if humans were able to travel at infinitely close to the speed of light, they would not be able to penetrate its mysteries. Fortunately, the speed of light is not the speed limit of the universe, so it is entirely conceivable that in the distant future, humans may somehow be able to escape the shackles of the speed of light.

Earthquakes are a natural phenomenon known to all of us, and they are not unique to the earth. In theory, any planet with a solid crust can have an 'earthquake', and for the sake of distinction, we can call it a 'starquake'. The strength of a 'starshock' varies from planet to planet, so how terrible is the strongest known 'starshock'?

In a good night sky, we can always see a sky full of stars and it seems to us that the whole universe is in full view. In fact, the stars we see in the night sky are only a tiny part of the milky way galaxy, which is just one of the trillions of galaxies that exist in the observable universe.

If someone asks the question, are humans alone in the universe? I believe that most people would answer in the negative. In fact, the scientific community also generally agrees that there are a large number of intelligent civilisations in the vast universe, some of which may even be far ahead of our civilisation, and in order to better describe the technological level of intelligent civilisations in the universe, scientists have also proposed the concept of "Cosmic civilisation levels".

The law of conservation of momentum means that the total momentum of a system remains constant when it is not subject to external forces or when the sum of the vectors of external forces is zero
