I have been under a lot of stress lately and have found tai chi just using it as an exercise has released a lot of stress. I wanted to know if you could do tai chi, but keep Hashem in mind?

Question
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissim_Kahlon Born 1946 or 1947 I find this interesting, how does one not know the exact birth year of a living man? He built something that is a part of modern Israeli heritage, yes? Will his real birth date ever be published? Seems a little strange, looking at this from the outside in. I must assume it is either his wishes being honored by those who seek the information, security purposes, or poor records keeping. It matters not to me personally, but surely since he built https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermit_House He will be remembered in full, not just his name, but his chronology as well, one would hope? Perhaps it is not for man to know. As long as God knows the time of a man, then all is well, but are we robbing historians? Future generations? Obscuring precision? Could this potential flaw be used against anyone? If his birth year has a true answer, then should the truth not be shared? At least the TRUTH, should exist, even if not shared. By the application of Boolean Algebra, the statement on Wikipedia is true, regardless of which year, but when a scholar asks on a school trip, must the potential for a lie rest on the lips of the teacher?

Question
I am studying the Nachmanides commentary on Genesis ( translated by Rabbi Dr. Charles B. Chavel), and I have a question concerning the use of capitalization in one specific instance in the section under "And G-D called the firmament heaven." There is a sentence that ends with "and all Separate Intelligences which are incorporeal." Is the reason behind the use of capitalization here something that is allowed to be relayed? Thank you for your time.

Question
I'm a teenager and I'm thinking about converting next year when I go to college; I read parts of the Torah and I truly believe it, however I was wondering how modern scientific concepts fit into Judaism. Do science and the Torah work together, is science incorrect, are some parts of the Torah outdated and need to be updated in the modern world (I think not)? These are my main questions, and if I could get clarification on these topics it would mean the world to me. I'm not trying to question anything in a disrespectful way (though I've heard that in Judaism it's more acceptable to question, unlike Christianity how I grew up where you follow blindly) This is what I'm wondering: Why are there other planets? How do you explain modern evolution theories? Are they incorrect or can they fit with the scriptures? If it's the year 5785, how is the Earth so old? Thank you so much!!
