Sure , you could make enough to get by . Treat it like a year of exploration before you settle into the rest of your life . <| sep |> I want to learn cross stitching , any good recommendations on how to ? <| sep |> Everyone knows that the AFL sucks , Australian football is the laughing stock of actual sports 😂 <| sep |> I ' ve heard variously that the presence of massenergy effects curvature of spacetime , resulting in a ' force ' of gravitation . I ' ve also heard that Einstein , upon discovering GR , was worried that it contradicted the notion of the universe as static and eternal if all matter is attractive then it should all collapse eventually leading to the cosmological constant . I ' m confused about Dark Energy . As I understand , it is a small and uniform energy density that permeates all of space . that ' s all fairly accurate so far . thumbs upIf massenergy cause curvature and attraction , then how can such a mechanism do the opposite , i . e . push galaxies apart ? well as you say einstein included a cosmological term into the einstein field equation , the term has the form g . now you can ask how it comes about , it could be the consequence of an exotic type of matter that has a g contribution to the stressenergy tensor , etc . but doesn ' t really matter for this question . in any case going into the cosmological standard model , adding that term and solving the equation you get a metric that is expanding . you should take a look at importantly this part you see how the parameters in the resulting metric depend on the cosmological constant . so yeah you get expansion quite naturally by introducing that additional term into the einstein field equation . the point where this confuses you is probably thinking that gravity is like newtonian gravity so it must attract . you are thinking in terms of infinitesimal masselements attracting each other . but reality is that in general relativity you get the metric as a result from the equation and only in a specific regime does that simplify to newtonian gravity .
