Top 10 unanswered questions..Answered

This particular article i came across in newspaper, i thought i could share with u all friends,
kudos to all scientists and researchers who spend their life time to the discoveries.

1.Are we alone in the universe?
       Scientists say the universe likely to contain many planets contain intellectual life.
However,we may not ever develop the technological wherewithal to reach out millions of
light years to make contact.

2.Will there ever be a cure for cancer?
       Exciting new treatment are in the research pipeline while it is unlikely that there will be
a magic,overnight cure in the near future,patients will live for longer and longer periods.

3.Does God exist?
       This is a longtime unanswered question for me yet am searching for an answer.
There is no scientific evidence for the existence of God.

4.How big is space?
        Some Astronomers believe there is no limit to the size of the universe.Others say
that since the Big Bang it has expanded to around 150 billion light years.

5.How and where did life start on earth?
        There have been numerous theories from variouse bacteria entering into symbiotic
relationships to convection currents passing through the Earth's crust.

6.Is time travel possible?
        The fabric of space time contains shortcuts called warmholes which makes time travel
 theoretically possible. However warmholes are unstable and to prop one open would
require repulsive gravity,the existence of which is not yet to be confirmed.

7.Will we ever colonise space?
         Maybe. Some say we should take a serious look at creating colonies elsewhere in our
solar system in case conditions on earth become inhospitable. NASA has already held meetings
on terraforming -the delibrate modification of the conditions on other planets or moon to make
them similar to those of earth.....interesting isn't..

8.What will replace Oil and when?
           Alternative energy sources is available but need to be made cost efficient and reach
demands in order to be replaced.

9.How will the universe end?
           Theories include that the universe will stop expanding and then collapse in on itself,
that it will get colder as it expands until it is at absolute zero, and that dark energy, will
eventually overcome gravity.

10.How long can the human lifespan be extended?
           Life-span extension experiments in mice have convinced some scientists that human
may soon routinely live way beyond their hundredth birthdays.
