Dark matter. 95% of the universe is made up of it, and we don't what it is exactly

I just pulled that percentage out of my arse, don't take me seriously

Which brings us back to Olbers' Paradox. If there are an infinite number of stars in the sky giving out an infinite amount of light, how come it gets dark at night?


The universe is arguably infinite (but then again maybe not) as the universe is supposed to be expanding, but the number of stars is not (although it is very large), because if they were they would fill up every single area of the night sky. The gaps in between are the darkness we see at night.

Scientists predict that as the universe expands the night sky will get darker and darker as the space in between the stars gets bigger and bigger. Just hang around for a few billion years or so and you may see it!

Going past the Falmer Stadium sight every day, twice a day and realising it is actually happening

Sky Diving in Australia, gazing at the Ocean from the parachute, as a load of humpback whales migrate along the coast

Buying about £5 worth of cricket stumps, bats and tennis balls and giving them to loads of kids in a poor part of Bangalore and playing in a massive community game of cricket as a result

Elephant back trekking in India, and seeing my first Wild Tiger

Pot Noodles at a BBQ

Looking across the top tier of Wembley Stadium as tens of thousands of fans go absolutely delerious as Peter Crouch volleys home to pull England back to 2-2 vs Croatia in the game we missed out on Euro 2008 qualification - a truly beautiful sight :bowdown:

Walking into The 5-star Breakers Hotel in Florida, with the realisation that every single cost is "on the company". Cue stupid sized breakfast from room service the following morning.

Walking out to a crowd of over 1,000 people cheering, playing as the opening act at a festival a couple of years ago. The noise was amazing.

Watching Glenn Murray with the ball at his feet.
