Powerful Explosion

[Dubbelosix]

No, have you heard of the conservation of momentum?

[Dubbelosix]

The shock waves are not eternal, when passing through a physical medium.

It will destroy what is necessary, until it looses energy in what we call phonons.

So it is causing explosions all along the route

 

Have things like this happened before

Edited February 29, 2020 by Timboo

[Dubbelosix]

Yes, when stars go supernova for instance.

Not of the same magnitude. Your question is tactful to find an error somewhere when none exist.

What do you mean?

[Dubbelosix]

You seem to have it in mind that the shockwave cannot be buffered.

I am not sure what it means buffered. In my mind this shockwave is travelling trough space destroying anything in its path.

 

Also what does it mean when it says punched a crater through the galaxy

[Dubbelosix]

No, shockwaves are often buffered, have you ever heard of a silencer?

Like on a gun?

[Dubbelosix]

Yes.

[Timboo]

Yes.

Ok but not sure what you mean by buffered

[Dubbelosix]

You know what a silencer is but you do not know what the word buffered means?

[Timboo]

You know what a silencer is but you do not know what the word buffered means?

I know buffered but do not understand in terms of flying around the universe destroying things

[Dubbelosix]

A shock wave travels as if it where a sound wave.

 

A silencer buffers the noise, the noise is the disturbances it causes through spacetime.

 

A large explosion cannot continue indefinitely in an non empty vacuum.
