They are really quite simple one word questions just explain each in the actual field of science provided with factual knowledge. Please explain 1.) "GRAVITY"...not the characteristics of gravity but gravity. 2.) Life and the force that brings "animation" to a lump of inert matter known as the BODY HUMAN...again, not the characteristics of life but LIFE..its origins, its evolution..etc, and of course NO THEORIES please. 3.) A "STAR".....Please explain the birth of a star, without theory, present the evidence of a NEW STAR being born, show me a star that exists now that was not evident in history. 4.) Please explain just how the Universe can be "observed" being 93 billion light years across, and yet only be 13.7 billion years old...again, no theories, that can be pasted....tell us in "your own words". Show us just how intelligent you, do not OPINE about how smart you are. BD
3 is dead wrong, they have witnessed starts being born. You can look up some pictures on the internet.

The other questions even science will admit is currently non-defined. They have some very good guesses that have stood up to examination to date, however I would not say that they are settled.

But something being unknown doesn't make it unknowable. Science has filled in large swathes of the unknown territory in the last 150 years, and it is not too far to assume they will continue to do so in the future. There is some good physics work going on concerning gravity, that we hope will be solved once CERN gets their new accelerator fully functioning.
