My fellow team mate Cura has done the math and he said you are correct.

While i cant give you a nobel prize, i will unluck your thread! Congratunlockations!

1. You are right. The stars in the eve universe are sometimes much older than you would expect.

The oldest star is 91102232369.3557 years old. 91 billion that is.

there are quite a few stars older than our universe:
>15 billion:
| 2595 |
>20 billion:
| 1967 |


>30 billion
| 1075 |


> 40 billion:
| 582 |


>50 billion
| 317 |


> 60 billion
| 136 |


>70 billion
| 54 |


> 80 billion:
| 9 |


>90 billion:
| 1 |




Given all that I would say you were in line for a Nobel, except for one thing.
You are not the first to notice this feature.

Ok...this...THIS is the smoking gun to my suspicion we live in a simulated universe.

Sure, there was the flashing planets that you could quickly see stars behind...and then when you warp away from them you see the stars int he SAME PLACE you saw them when the planet flickered.

I won't get into all the suspiciousness of simulated reality...but THIS, I think, proves we live in a simulated universe!

I was going to say, considering that Eve physics are nothing like the laws of reality we have in our universe my interpretation was that the Eve Gate was a wormhole to an entirely different universe, with different physical laws and apparently also age.




Where is it and what is its age?

The oldest star is 91102232369.3557 years old. 91 billion that is.

the new amplituhedron research suggests space-time, and therefore dimensions, may be illusory anyway.

GÇ£We canGÇÖt rely on the usual familiar quantum mechanical space-time pictures of describing physics,GÇ¥ Arkani-Hamed said. GÇ£We have to learn new ways of talking about it. This work is a baby step in that direction.GÇ¥

That is, giving up space and time as fundamental constituents of nature and figuring out how the Big Bang and cosmological evolution of the universe arose out of pure geometry.

That oldest star is an M9-V spectral Type according to the database.

According to wikipedia, that type of star can live for trillions of years, theoretically.

So......perhaps the Eve universe is just set in the future by about 80billion years.

select count(*) from mapCelestialStatistics where spectralClass <> '0.0' and (age/31557600) > 90000000000;

I find the fact that you store the age of stars in seconds much more amusing than the OP.

Well one of the other questions into this.. what was the Earth date when the New Eden wormhole collasped?

Maybe the worm hole to EVE was just a route to another Universe within the MetaVerse that much older than the Universe that the MilkyWay Galaxy resides in.

"I guess we are no longer in Kansas"

That would explain the weird 'Submarines in Space' physics...

Actually that is explained quite nicely by warp drives. Your ship's warp drive induces a drag on the ship relative to the greater universe, IIRC.

I was going to say something that I thought was clever then realize I was all wrong so this is all that I will post #fakescientist
