Spiral arms are created and destroyed in this simulation of the disc of a spiral galaxy. Stars like the Sun could have migrated far from their birthplaces in such an environment (Courtesy of Rok Roskar)

    Maybe the sun was born in those galaxies surrounding milky way or was thrown out of Pegasus dwarf galaxy 4 billions years ago and now we think we are Milky waysers but the truth is we are the monsters in this galaxy.

    sure. confirm your age as 6 and knowledge of the topic as 0. and again reaffirm your cowardice to address the topic at all.

    at this point "mr. science", lol, you have proven your willingness to lie and distort my comments and have only supported you ignorance with a "non-scientific" religious website. which pretty much leaves you without a pot to piss in as far as i'm concerned. you both a bore and a bother. thus i will now only re-spam you with this comment. simply because you've proven you're own mental inadequacies and are not worth anymore of my time. go back to your angels and demons simpleton :)

    nothing distorted and lies only on your part by trying to play it down. it's as easy to see by just scrolling up. I quoted your response when asked the difference between hypothesis and theory and how the scientific method works. and you still fail to see how undetectable and unproven qualify anything as science. i find it funny someone as indoctrinated and ignorant as yourself would comment on what site was linked, go figure you don't address anything mentioned on topic.

    and again no proof, lmao! just more mindless banter from a nit wit and his religious sites BS :) you sure like clinging to one study ignoring the fact it was done a few times now, and the fact that there were 2 other experiments done by different teams in different labs using a different method. all data collectively holds DM true. what do you got? more BS from the religious site you support that also states the world is only a few thousand years old. very scientific of you, lol...

    WMPS are DM remain unproven, bullet cluster data display properties that aren't DM, dwarf galaxies that purported to not contain DM as the primary galaxies contain it display the erroneous rotation curves still, abstract and undefined clumping of DM, varying amounts of DM per galaxy defined AFTER measuring it's gravitational lensing effects and rotatation curve. Please, if you are right, then point out this SOLID PROOF that is out there. That is all you need to do now.
