There is no absolute objective reality in this universe, the only truth is that EVERYTHING is relative!
I wish you had had this conversation with my mother when I was growing up:))
It's a great article. I was reading @lemouth's article on dark matter earlier this week and learned that photons have been around since the Recombination (new to me). Now I read about photons in your essay.
Slowly, the little pieces come together for me as I read articles by clever people in STEMsocial.
Thank you!
To make it more specific, photons were there even before the recombination epoch, but they were constantly scattering with other (charged) particle. After recombination, matter became electrically neutral so that photons could travel across large distances and fill the entire universe. This means that photons from that epoch are still there today.
Wow!
Lol, I'm glad I didn't have to! I could barely convince my mother that the sky is NOT a ceiling. 🤣
I didn't read the article you're referring to, I'm guilty of being behind on reading posts especially from great authors like Lemouth, and yourself. 😬
But I'm working on rectifying that!
Thank you for reading and for your nice comment! 😊
