It's more like a ball of nonstop nuclear lightning than anything we've personally ever experienced as "fire", if that helps.
People think the speed of light is fast, but darkness is faster. Wherever light goes, it finds darkness got there first.
-source not sure, Pratchett probably? If not him then Adams.
don't fuck me up like this
Yeah it was Pratchett. Guess I will be re-reading that one next. I have just re-read all the Night Watch and Witches.
Light permeates most of the universe (everywhere that's not a black hole) You can see light from just about anywhere.
"Daytime is also atmosphere on Earth though. If you were on the moon in broad daylight the sky would still be dark."

For now. Eventually entropy will win and the darkness will be complete
And yet, you can not see light in far more places. In fact, 99.9999999%... of all atoms across the whole of reality are, at any given moment, not connected to or part of an entity capable of sight.
Light is the aberration.
Each day is like a very slow "weeeeee" seeing the sun pass.
"Night" and "day" were really only ever intended to be used on a planet. They kinda lose meaning in space.
Isn't it weird to people that black holes exist? They're holes in the fabric of reality itself. Stuff just goes in and is lost forever.
Not exactly. Comes out scrambled as Hawking radiation.
Mega (or just big boii) quantum encryption devices
It is possible that every black hole is an entire universe, and we're inside of one right now.

Don't fuck them up like that.
You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!
For you!
Speaking of, fire (the way we are familiar with it) only really happens on earth.
And any of the other infinite number of unknown planets with an atmosphere containing adequate oxygen.
Of course, but none known.
Oxygen, and some ongoing process to generate complex molecules to be oxidized - you need something to reduce the things that have already been burnt back into new molecules that can burn, otherwise you run out of stuff pretty quickly
We are like inverse cockroaches.
Do you suppose cockroaches think of us as day-dwelling scum?
They don't think of us at all.
I suppose cockroaches think of us as something to exploit. So, yes.
If there is no day where you are then there is no night either.
Whoa am I high right now
Both a statement and a question, and multiples of each, depending on where the missing punctuation goes.
Or you could say night is the anomaly, because most places in the universe are stars.
Nighttime is absence. You could say most of the universe is absence, but most matter is stars.
Daytime is also atmosphere on Earth though. If you were on the moon in broad daylight the sky would still be dark.
Wait.... whhhhaa?
Oh!
