Re: One answer...
Conduction only occurs when there's something close to the object (water) to take the heat away. If nothing's nearby (like in the middle of space), then the heat will radiate away from the source―like light from a torch―until it comes into contact with something else.

Mass, gravity and velocity
Sorry to backtrack...

Yes.
Can you go into more detail? My understanding was that as an object approaches the speed of light its resistance to force will increase but its active gravitational mass will not.

Re: Mass, gravity and velocity
...Thanks. Hi Phatboy, everyone.
I made the mistake of leaving school early (am now waiting to get into a uni course), and I "observe" the stars frequently.
