New Research Claims Wormholes across the Universe are Traversable, with One Small Catch
via RT Headline Image: © Pixabay A team of scientists has developed a model that would allow for the existence of traversable wormholes that adhere to the laws of physics without the need for theoretical matter to keep them open. But there’s a catch. The concept of wormholes harken back to the earliest days of Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen’s … Continue reading

The Bugs that Lay Eggs in Your Face
By Gina Echevarria,Shira Polan Business Insider via Yahoo News Headline Image credit: Gross Science YouTube There’s a creature scurrying across your face. Right now. Yes, you. And at some point, maybe now, maybe in a few days, it’s going to find a nice cozy pore in your skin, and lay a single, enormous egg. Meet the face mites. They’re smaller … Continue reading
Microscopic Wormholes Possible in Theory
by University of Oldenburg via phys.org Image Credit: CC0 Public Domain Wormholes play a key role in many science fiction films—often as a shortcut between two distant points in space. In physics, however, these tunnels in spacetime have remained purely hypothetical. An international team led by Dr. Jose Luis Blázquez-Salcedo of the University of Oldenburg has now presented a new … Continue reading
Astronomers Find Hazardous High-Energy Solar Particles in the Sun that Could Threaten Earth
By UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Image Credit: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center The source of potentially hazardous solar particles, released from the Sun at high speed during storms in its outer atmosphere, has been located for the first time by researchers at UCL and George Mason University, Virginia, USA. These particles are highly charged and, if they reach Earth’s atmosphere, can potentially … Continue reading
New Research Indicates the Whole Universe Could be a Giant Neural Network
By Tristan Greene via TheNextWeb The core idea is deceptively simple: every observable phenomenon in the entire universe can be modeled by a neural network. And that means, by extension, the universe itself may be a neural network. Vitaly Vanchurin, a professor of physics at the University of Minnesota Duluth, published an incredible paper last August entitled “The World as … Continue reading
30-Pound Meteorite that Crashed in Sweden Recovered in Local Village
Would be incredible to interact (if it was safe to do so) with an object that travelled through space! Stephanie Pappas Live Science Headline image: © Andreas Forsberg/Anders Zetterqvist A half-melted hunk of iron-rich rock found in Uppsala, Sweden, is part of a meteorite that fell there in November 2020. The lumpy meteorite is about the size of a loaf … Continue reading
New Research Suggests Polar Flip Could be Catastrophic
Imagine if this was to happen while we were facing other serous crisis such as the pandemic and climate change, it would surely be the knock out punch! Headline Image credit: Image source: Reid Wiseman/NASA By Mike Wehner via BGR Disaster movies have shown us what Hollywood thinks might happen if Earth’s poles were to suddenly flip, but the reality … Continue reading
Scientists Develop Method for Two-Way Communication While People are in Deep Sleep
If this becomes some kind of normal thing, I wonder if there is (or will be) some sort of agreement that has to be agreed to before entering someone’s mind/dream… Illustration: © Orange Fox from Pixabay via RT: While not quite on par with ‘Inception,’ researchers from Northwestern University have discovered a new phenomenon they describe as “interactive dreaming,” in … Continue reading
End of Neanderthals Linked to Flip of Earth’s Magnetic Poles, Study Suggests
By Nicola Davis via The Guardian Headline Image: © Elen11/Getty Images The flipping of the Earth’s magnetic poles together with a drop in solar activity 42,000 years ago could have generated an apocalyptic environment that may have played a role in a major events ranging from the extinction of megafauna to the end of the Neanderthals, researchers say. The Earth’s … Continue reading
