  2. Dark energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_energy

    Assuming the dark energy is constant (a cosmological constant), the current distance to this cosmological event horizon is about 16 billion light years, meaning that a signal from an event happening at present would eventually be able to reach us in the future if the event were less than 16 billion light years away, but the signal would never ...

    The distance from the Moon to the apex of its umbra is roughly equal to that between the Moon and Earth: 384,402 km (238,856 mi). Since Earth's diameter is 3.7 times the Moon's, its umbra extends correspondingly farther: roughly 1.4 million km (870,000 mi). [1]

  6. Shadow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow

    The farther the distance from the object blocking the light to the surface of projection, the larger the silhouette (they are considered proportional). Also, if the object is moving, the shadow cast by the object will project an image with dimensions (length) expanding proportionally faster than the object's own rate of movement.

    The angular diameter distance and Hubble parameter can include different functions that explain dark energy behavior. [ 23 ] [ 24 ] These functions have two parameters w 0 and w 1 and one can constrain them with a chi-square technique .

  8. Earth's shadow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_shadow

    The shadow's fringe appears as a dark bluish to purplish band that stretches over 180° of the horizon [3] [4] opposite the Sun, i.e. in the eastern sky at dusk and in the western sky at dawn. Before sunrise , Earth's shadow appears to recede as the Sun rises; after sunset , the shadow appears to rise as the Sun sets.

    The fireworks also serve as a backdrop for the concert, and the audience joins in setting them off, including an attractive brunette Ritter had met at the fireworks shop earlier that night. Morning breaks as the band sings the lyric "When darkness turns to light," and the band members are seen walking off into the distance.
