Our Universe is Expanding Faster than Expected
Everytime I think about the universe expanding I can’t help but think to myself, “so what is outside of our universe?”, based on our concept/understanding of things, there must be something outside of it but that is one scary rabbit hole to go in because then you have to ask what contains whatever is outside of our universe and what’s … Continue reading
Our Mysterious Existence; Is the Universe a Conscious Mind?
Phlip Goff Aeon In the past 40 or so years, a strange fact about our Universe gradually made itself known to scientists: the laws of physics, and the initial conditions of our Universe, are fine-tuned for the possibility of life. It turns out that, for life to be possible, the numbers in basic physics – for example, the strength of … Continue reading
Scientists Show Human Consciousness May Be a Side Effect of ‘Entropy’
Here is a little explanation/definition of the word Entropy (via vocabulary.com) to make the article a little clearer (I personally needed it though others might or might not): The idea of entropy comes from a principle of thermodynamics dealing with energy. It usually refers to the idea that everything in the universe eventually moves from order to disorder, and entropy … Continue reading
Six Scientific Mysteries that We Still Haven’t Solved
Humans have made a staggering amount of scientific and technological progress over the past century. We’ve created technology that has transformed our society; scientific advances have helped us answer fundamental questions about who we are and the world that we inhabit. And, yet, mysteries persist. Why are we compelled to sleep every night? Why are we still not able to … Continue reading
Theory Claims NO Big Bang, the Universe is Eternally Expanding and Collapsing
This particular sentence in this article might keep you up at night: “One thing that the Big Bang theory and black holes have in common is a singularity – an infinite amount of energy that is so dense that it cannot be explained through current scientific understanding“. via Express UK: THERE was no Big Bang and the universe is constantly … Continue reading
Will We Ever be able to Know If Our Universe is a Simulation?
Are we living in a simulation? A flurry of headlines says no: we need no longer worry about our lives being mere software spawned by a highly advanced supercomputer. These stories stem from a recent Science Advances paper about simulating quantum physics. One science magazine extrapolated from this to suggest that storing information about just a few hundred electrons needs a computer memory made up … Continue reading
Scientist Say the Universe Should Not Exist Based on the Bizarre Behaviour of Anti-Matter
We don’t know why the universe isn’t destroying itself Our universe shouldn’t exist, scientists say. The most elite scientists in the world are still struggling to find why exactly our universe didn’t destroy itself as soon as it came into existence. That’s what science says should have happened – but it clearly hasn’t, since you’re here reading this, as far … Continue reading
Mysterious Cosmos: Astronomers Discover Stars that Appear to be Older than the Universe
If you understand how stars work, you can observe the physical properties of one of them and extrapolate its age, and know when it had to have been born. Stars undergo a lot of changes as they age: their radius, luminosity, and temperature all evolve as they burn through their fuel. But a star’s lifespan, in general, is dependent on … Continue reading
Scientist Discover Cosmic ‘Spider Web’ That Traverses Unimaginably Huge Spaces
SCIENTISTS have made a huge breakthrough in their understanding of the mysterious dark matter after discovering a stunning cosmic web which fills the entire universe. Dark matter baffles even the brainiest boffins who still struggle to explain exactly what it is. Dark matter was first conceptualised in 1977 by scientists who suggested that the substance, which is thought to make … Continue reading
Physicists Claim to Have Found The Mind Blowing Answer To Why The Universe Exist
QUANTUM physicists have finally answered the biggest question of them all – why is there a universe? The puzzle of why there is something rather than nothing – from which all the biggest questions of metaphysics spring such as ‘where did we come from?’ ‘why are we conscious?’ – has been largely solved by scientists studying the physics of the … Continue reading
