What's the most powerful force in the universe?

[MobBoss]

That's Dark Energy, not Dark Matter; Dark Matter is what gives galaxies its shape and is very weak. Dark Energy is very weak, too; there's just a lot of it. And both are not forces, but rather matter/energy that interact with gravity. Gravity is pathetically weak.

You are correct, I meant dark energy. But if dark energy can possibly do this:

There are some very speculative ideas about the future of the universe. One suggests that phantom energy causes divergent expansion, which would imply that the effective force of dark energy continues growing until it dominates all other forces in the universe. Under this scenario, dark energy would ultimately tear apart all gravitationally bound structures, including galaxies and solar systems, and eventually overcome the electrical and nuclear forces to tear apart atoms themselves, ending the universe in a "Big Rip". On the other hand, dark energy might dissipate with time, or even become attractive. Such uncertainties leave open the possibility that gravity might yet rule the day and lead to a universe that contracts in on itself in a "Big Crunch".

Either way, being the force behind the 'big rip' or the 'big crunch' sounds pretty darn powerful to me.

I tell y'all, these are all peanuts compared to being able to create your own universes.

Duct tape. It has a light side, a dark side, and it binds the cosmos together.

Call me when you read your 8th grade Physics book. I'll educate you a bit:

Call me when you get through your 4th grade vocab list. I'll educate you a bit:

hyperbole (n)
1. an obvious and intentional exaggeration

Oh, 4th < 8th grade. 4 = 1/2 x 8 -> my knowledge:your knowledge::2:1

As for any attempted comebacks: I am rubber, you are glue. Figure out the rest

The endless pursuit of crack.

Craic yes, crack no.

The endless pursuit of crack.

The drug or the female variety?

That's pretty damn funny.

Death Machine, Tyrone's gonna tell you something about himself that you may not know...

Spoiler :

Although pursuit of the female variety carries great power of it's own.

How Gravity did not make the list is beyond comprehension.

From what I've heard a big crunch is not caused by dark energy but by gravity. It's basically opposite of a big bang. It's the eventual pull of all matter in the universe into a mathematical point, effectively bringing the universe back into the state it was in before the big bang.

(..)the gravity of a super massive black-hole(..)

That is my vote.

Dark energy is what creates the gravitational force to bring it all back together.

 

[GenMarshall]

I wonder if its possible to tap into using Dark Energy as an energy source .

seriously, fights off allergies, makes weak women be able to lift incredibly heavy cars...

..because it's a completely feeble force in all comparison. It can be strong because there's a lot of mass, not because the force itself is strong.

 

[Cu Chulainn]

Yet another vote for compound interest.

 

[Infantry#14]

Dark energy is what creates the gravitational force to bring it all back together.

...What? I thought Dark Energy is the opposite of gravity, that expands stuff out to infinity.

Most powerful force? Anti-matter + matter = KABOOM

 

[Shylock]

Gravity .

How is a force that takes the a planet the size of Earth to hold you to the ground which you can easily overcome simply by jumping?
