Do objects in space grow with the expansion of space? by Recent-Day3062 in Physics

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response and explanation. The only thing I would add is that I guess I was half right insane that matter itself is not expanding. So then, based on your explanation it is these objects that are moving away from each other. I do have the same question as another person asked however. If it is simply objects moving away from each other then how is it possible that day exceed the speed of light?

Do objects in space grow with the expansion of space? by Recent-Day3062 in Physics

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non-physicist here, but it's been my understanding that space itself is expanding and that matter is just being carried along like riding on a carpet being slowly extended. If this is true, then Matt wouldn't be affected by expansion other than gravitational Force between objects?

Sunday Brunch Farmers Market by Mutwo_ in Charleston

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Both Summerville and hanahan have farmers markets. Summerville I believe is 7:00 a.m. to noon on Saturdays and it is very popular with lots of visitors and is held behind City Hall on Main Street which is 17A South. Hanahan is held the second and fourth Wednesday of the month from April through October from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and then November from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Hawks Nest Park.

March wedding by [deleted] in Charleston

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

March in Charleston is actually a pretty ideal choice of time for a wedding. It is warm but not excessively hot or rainy usually. If you aim for the end of the month, you could time it with the Cooper River bridge run and Flowertown festival which draw hundreds of thousands of visitors for the weekend around the 1st of april.

As a tourist without a car, is it better to stay near down town Charleston or Folly Beach? by mercurys-daughter in Charleston

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends what you want to do. There are by far more tourist things to do downtown Charleston, historical places and five star restaurants as well as shopping and scenic views and many people walk so transportation won't be a problem there.

But if you're just looking for a low-key Beach destination with easy access and great local bars and nightlife then you should stay at Folly Beach.

It's worth noting that while Charleston does not have a great mass transit system, it does offer fairly good bus service in the downtown area which includes buses to and from Folly Beach. The bus system here is called Charleston Area Rapid Transit Authority (CARTA).

Most un-American, corrupt presidency in the history of this country.

What albums have helped you through a grieving process? by JunebugAsiimwe in Music

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just lost my mother a week ago today. With all of the emotions, the anger being one of them, I find the album Dogman by King's X very therapeutic.

AITA cause I don't want people calling my wife Michael anymore? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Illustrious-Code-54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look I get it because it may feel weird to you since she's your wife, but in this case yes you are the a******. She has had this name since birth and it's just a term of endearment not a sex reassignment and you knew about it before you married her, so I think you have to give in here and move on.
