Typically, optical waves exhibit circular wavefronts when they propagate away from a source point. In general, they act in the same manner as when ripples are formed when you drop an object into wate…
Quantum physics just beat classical physics again. A single quantum particle can send a two-way signal, scientists have discovered - something that's impossible in classical physics. That mean…
“Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me.” Wrote Einstein in a condolence letter upon the death of his close friend, Michele Besso, in 1955. “That signifies nothing. For thos…
“We are all agreed that your theory is crazy. The question that divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct.” Niels Bohr spoke these words to Wolfgang Pauli about the …
Last year seems as if we have already fallen into a parallel universe but Trump and Brexit are nothing matched to the alternate universes many astronomers are considering. Cosmologists call it the m…
Chemist John Dalton proposed the theory that all matter and objects are made up of particles called atoms , and this is still accepted by the scientific community, almost two centuries later. Each of…
COULD QUANTUM CONSCIOUSNESS EXIST? Despite all the research we’ve done, we still know relatively little about how the human brain works, and we know even less about the mystery of “consciousness.” Sc…
To connect classical physics and quantum physics, physicists used two rubidium atoms to see if the effects of gravity are affected by the atoms' quantum spins. Ultimately, the experiment failed t…
Since the 1950s, scientists have been hard at work in finding ways to produce stable nuclear energy through fusion. We've learned much from all the experiments done in nuclear fusion reactors all…
Space is steeped in mystery, and that very thought alone has made scientists determined to break through some of the biggest questions of all. Yet finding solutions to some only make more what-ifs ar…
A century from now, it will be well known that: the vacuum of space which fills the universe is itself the real substratum of the universe; vacuum in a circulating state becomes matter; the electron …
People have mixed opinions about ghosts. Some only think of them as the stuff of movies and books, while others believe they can feel them, have seen them, and that they need to be recognized as real…
Theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss clarifies how, over the last hundred or so years, trying to pin down the reality of nothingness has become astonishingly complicated. You know, the Biblical void…
“Matter”: it’s what atoms and molecules are made up of. On the physical material level, it’s what all physical objects are made up of; it is everything that surrounds us and anything that has mass an…
