Bienvenue sur labosims - LABOSIMS NASA Can Stop Looking for Black Holes Says Stephen Hawking 2 IceCube Blog Stephen Hawking on God, Science and the Origins of the Universe According to Viking mythology, eclipses occur when two wolves, Skoll and Hati, catch the sun or moon. At the onset of an eclipse people would make lots of noise, hoping to scare the wolves away. After some time, people must have noticed that the eclipses ended regardless of whether they ran around banging on pots. Ignorance of nature's ways led people in ancient times to postulate many myths in an effort to make sense of their world. Albert Einstein said, "The most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible." Newton believed that our strangely habitable solar system did not "arise out of chaos by the mere laws of nature." Many improbable occurrences conspired to create Earth's human-friendly design, and they would indeed be puzzling if ours were the only solar system in the universe. The weak anthropic principle is not very controversial. The emergence of the complex structures capable of supporting intelligent observers seems to be very fragile.

brief history SpaceWeather.com -- News and information about meteor showers, solar flares, auroras, and near-Earth asteroids Why Stephen Hawking Thinks the 'God Particle' Could End the Universe Stephen Hawking bet Gordon Kane $100 that physicists would not discover the Higgs boson. After losing that bet when physicists detected the particle in 2012, Hawking lamented the discovery, saying it made physics less interesting. Now, in the preface to a new collection of essays and lectures called "Starmus," the famous theoretical physicist is warning that the particle could one day be responsible for the destruction of the known universe. Hawking is not the only scientist who thinks so. "Most likely it will take 10 to the 100 years [a 1 followed by 100 zeroes] for this to happen, so probably you shouldn't sell your house and you should continue to pay your taxes," Joseph Lykken, a theoretical physicist at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois, said during his lecture at the SETI Institute on Sept. 2. Now that scientists measured the particle's mass last year, they can make many other calculations, including one that seems to spell out the end of the universe.
