You are correct. It does propagate at c.

Time as we know it is based on our understanding of the THIS solar system. Time is not the same for us as it is on Mars. So time is relative. The only thing that is constant is light. How many times have you said to yourself "time really flew"? If we lose track of time then it has no relevance to the universe. The universe is infinitely old. It does not care how old the Earth is. Time is a social construct designed by Earthlings. It has no bearing to the universe. Everything we know to be truth only works in this solar system. We can sit and observe, test and evaluate things that happen outside our solar system based on our understanding of this solar system. Point being this...I think time is irrelevant to understanding the universe. It helps with understanding what we see but not what we don't see. The only way for time to be relevant is if we knew there was (in fact) a big crunch coming. Then we can extrapolate time. Meaning, in 1 trillion years the universe will begin to contract. That let's me know the life cycle of this universe is 1 trillion years. That's some information on time that I can actually use in understanding the universe.

What a fan is rated at doesn't mean it actually does what it claims. I bought a 14K BTU AC but it feels like a 8K BTU AC. Too many variables to use physics in buying a fan. What if your body temp is different than mine? What if the part of the country you live in differs from mine? What about elevation? Air is thinner at higher elevations than lower elevations. However, the fan is the exact same. Obviously that will produce a different result. Buy what makes you feel comfortable. If that doesn't work, take it back and buy another.

No... We would see the Sun disappear before we felt the effects. Light travels faster than gravitational events. I'm not sure what happens if a Sun goes supernova though. Our Sun "shouldn't" create a black hole if it goes supernova. But some Suns will create a supernova. Therefore, I'm not sure if a supernova will slow (or reverse) light once it goes.

The speed of light is 299,792,458 metres per second, Let's assume the distance between Point A and Point B is 299,792,458 meters away. Let's assume two scenarios happen. One: Light leaving Point A travels in a straight line WITHOUT encountering a massive object. It should arrive at Point B in 1 second correct? Two: Light leaving Point A travels in a straight line BUT encounters a massive object. It should arrive at Point B in >1 second correct? My question is this. Did scenario two slow down? Let me offer this theory. Light that bends warps spacetime. I believe both scenarios would arrive at Point B at the exact same time. Why? Because when light bends its warps spacetime to catch up. Let me take this further. I believe this can bridge the gap between Quantum Mechanics and Relativity. I believe light also warps spacetime at the micro level like it does the macro level. We know light bends around massive objects. If it bends then why doesn't it shoot off into a different direction? Put it like this, If I'm traveling down a road at 80 MPH and encounter a bend in the road, then inertia would tend to throw me off the road UNLESS I reduce my speed OR another force counteracts inertia for me. If you look at a lunar eclipse, it still shines even though its in our shadow. That lets me know light tends to resume its original course even though it was bent around the Earth. I'm not a bible thumper but... The Creation 1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light I think light is the key to bridging the very small and the very large in this universe.

Can the circles and squares be rearranged? Meaning. Circle, square, circle on top and square, circle, square on bottom? Or some other variation.

I'm always skeptical of new things being created that don't exist in nature. Some things don't exist because they shouldn't exist.

First of all let me say I am by no means as smart as the people posting on here. I just have a few questions though. 1. Your PI RATIO really isn't a PI ratio is it? Pi is 3.14159265358979...infinity. You're number is 3.14606776816854...finite. So in theory, your Pi is 3.15 not 3.14 right? Are those two numbers both apples? Or are they apples and oranges? I'm just trying to understand how your Pi ratio is even considered Pi "anything" to begin with. To me its just two separate numbers. 2. I'm still not sure how you came up with 144.1994472645505. You said it was 12 squared but 12 squared is 144. Not 144.1994472645505. The number you used to come up with that had to be 12.00830743 squared. So could you explain how you came up with that number? 3. It appears, on the surface, that your Pi ratio only works on a planet that has a 12 hour day squared. Does it work on Saturn? Pi is Pi right? A circle on Earth is a circle on Saturn right. However, Saturn has a 10 hour day. Would your calculations work on a planet that has a 10 hour day squared? Seems odd to have calculations that only work on this planet.
