I don't have time to get into it deeply, but I can point to a couple threads, though it may be a little heavy reading. Thread: WE are Not the ASHES of stars, WE are the Stability of Aether...of God... I just had a 'vision', or whatever the hell I'm supposed to call them...I don't know how to properly explain it...initial creation, that is energy/mass, comes from the 'dormant' electro/magnetic field (aether)...it initially comes from the space between the systems...there needs to be 'pure' vacuum of a certain distance between particles...this distance is required for stability of that 'particles' manifestation...hah! If there is the slightest of pulse through the aether - when the distance between 'particles' is far enough - then the pulse can remain pure...it can remain in the luxadrome pattern long enough for it to induce manifestation of 'portions' of the dormant electro/magnetic field (aether) it has 'affected' (cause and effect are manifesting at closer and closer convergence}...outside that distance, the 'pulse' doesn't resonate through the medium correctly, or travel 'far' enough...inside that distance the electromagnetic signature disrupts the luxadrome pattern making it collapse back out of existence...the correct distance of vacuum between 'particles' allows that slight charge to travel and 'resonate' at the correct frequency, therefor not disrupting the luxadrome pattern...instead, it helps create and support it...

Working Title: The AGN Creatures of WHIM Story Line: WHIM is a National Acrobatic Science Administration Researching Company that has experimented with Gaseous Research of interstellar space for an eon. To look for the WHIM, the researchers examined X-ray observations of a rapidly growing supermassive black hole known as an active galactic nucleus, or AGN. This AGN, which is about two billion light years away, generates immense amounts of X-ray light as it pulls matter inwards. Main Characters: Sculptor Wall played by Micheal Moore This "wall", which is a large diffuse structure stretching across tens of millions of light years, contains thousands of galaxies and potentially a significant gaseous reservoir of the WHIM, if the theoretical simulations are correct. The WHIM in the wall should absorb some of the X-rays from the AGN as they make their journey across intergalactic space. XMM-Newton played by Woody Allen Confirmed detection by first officer Newton of the WHIM have been made difficult because of its extremely low density. Using observations and simulations, scientists calculate the WHIM has a density equivalent to only 6 protons per cubic meter. Fang played by Husband of the late Phyllis Diller "Evidence for the WHIM has even been much harder to find than evidence for dark matter, which is invisible and can only be detected indirectly," said Fang.
