The speed of light, the paradoxes of time, and how many atoms are in the universe?
♺ DETAILS ________________________________ In a landmark series of calculations, physicists have proved that black holes can shed information, which seems impossible by definition. The work appears to resolve a paradox that Stephen Hawking first described five decades ago. ♺ ANIMATION: … Continue reading
What Does it Take to Make a Universe? – with Harry Cliff
What is matter really made of? How does the stuff around us escape annihilation in the fearsome heat of the Big Bang? And will we ever be able to understand the very first moments of our universe? Watch the Q&A: … Continue reading
Does Kirk die when he goes through the transporter?
[…] Does Captain Kirk die when he goes through the transporter? Is he just converted into a different medium, sent elsewhere, and reassembled? Or does the original die and a copy of him is created elsewhere? What does this question … Continue reading
On the Shoulders of Giants: Steven Weinberg and the Quest to Explain the World
Nobel laureate Steven Weinberg was one of the world’s foremost theoretical physicists and a passionate advocate for science. Among his many influential contributions is the co-discovery of the electroweak theory that unifies electromagnetism and the weak nuclear force, a central … Continue reading
Time crystals: A new phase of matter – and a breakthrough for quantum computing?
Google researchers claim to have created four-dimensional ‘time crystals. Time crystals are a new phase of matter that seems to evade the laws of physics. Just like ordinary crystals repeat themselves in space, time crystals repeat themselves in time. Time … Continue reading

Does Time Cause Gravity?
We know that gravity must cause clocks to run slow on the basis of logical consistency. And we know that gravity DOES cause clocks to run slow based on many brilliant experiments. But I never explained WHY or HOW gravity … Continue reading
