This supercomputer simulation demonstrates one of the greatest powerful occasions in the universe: a pair of neutron stars striking, merging and creating a black hole. A neutron star is the dense cor…
‘ WHAT came before the Big Bang? ’ is a question that has plagued scientists for millennia, but experts may have the answer. Several solutions have been offered up to the age old conundrum, including…
On May 2nd, 1956, acclaimed theoretical physicist Richard Feynman gave a lunchtime talk at the California Institute of Technology. The relation between science and religion was on the docket that da…
On a YouTube channel Big Think, Dr. Michio Kaku takes a moment to discuss the death of the universe, how long we have, and how we might be able to hitch a ride into a neighboring, parallel universe. …
Renowned cosmologist Professor Stephen Hawking passed away in the early hours of March 14, news that has saddened us all. His scientific output was truly incredible and his work in engaging the wider…
Today, we lost one of the greatest minds on the planet, Stephen Hawking . While Hawking will always be remembered for his insights into black holes, the nature of space-time, and the origins of the…
There is a limit to how fast information can move through the universe, just like there's a limit to how fast everything else can move through the universe. It is a rule. But a team of quantum ph…
Around 13.7 billion years ago, our universe sprang into existence, but what was around before the Big Bang? In a new episode of Star Talk, renowned physicist Stephen Hawking sat down with host Neil…
One of the greatest minds of our time, physicist and author Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76, according to news reports from the United Kingdom . "We are deeply saddened that our belo…
SCIENTISTS are claiming to have created the first-ever "wormhole" - boosting hopes a portal that can transport matter light years across space could one day become reality. A wormhole is a …
China has launched the first all-electric cargo ship. According to China Daily, the 230 foot long vessel is equipped with a 2,400 kWh lithium-ion battery that stores enough electrical energy to trans…
Since the mid-twentieth century, two theories of physics have offered powerful yet incompatible models of the physical universe. General relativity brings space and time together into the (then) port…
We all have questions and some question are just, answer-less. Also some answer doesn’t need any kind of questions. Like what would it feel-like to be a dog or a fish? Was the Big Band just an accide…
Everything in the universe is continuously spinning. Nucleus, Electrons, Planets, Stars, Galaxies everything appears to be in an endless motion. Some spin at less velocities and some at velocities cl…
Harvard researchers have succeeded in creating a new material that causes light to act in entirely new ways. This discovery can help researchers learn more about the properties of light, but also may…
Scientists don’t really talk much about consciousness. You cannot see it or touch it. Even though several researcher tried it , you can’t quantify it. And if you can’t measure, it simply means you’re…
Using a new laser technology, physicists have been able to produce “attosecond” light pulses with high-intensity and high-energy photons. This detection is the first time scientists have observed suc…
