Wormhole

Wormhole
A wormhole, officially known as an Einstein–Rosen bridge, is a hypothetical topological feature of spacetime that would fundamentally be a "shortcut" through spacetime. A wormhole is much like a tunnel with two ends each in separate points in spacetime. For a simplified notion of a wormhole, visualize space as a two-dimensional (2D) surface. In this case, a wormhole can be pictured as a hole in that surface that leads into a 3D tube (the inside surface of a cylinder). This tube then re-emerges at another location on the 2D surface with a similar hole as the entrance. An actual wormhole would be analogous to this but with the spatial dimensions raised by one. Researchers have no observational evidence for wormholes, but the equations of the theory of general relativity have valid solutions that contain wormholes.

Pulsar experienced tremendous hiccup during fastest rotation Washington, Wed, 25 Jul 2012 ANI Washington, July 25 (ANI): Max Planck scientists have discovered a young and energetic neutron star with an unusually irregular rotation. Pulsars are superlative cosmic beacons. These compact neutron stars rotate about their axes many times per second, emitting radio waves and gamma radiation into space. Using ingenious data analysis methods, researchers from the Max Planck Institutes for Gravitational Physics (MPG) and for Radio Astronomy (MPIfR), in an international collaboration, dug a very special gamma-ray pulsar out of data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The pulsar J1838-0537 is radio-quiet, very young, and, during the observation period, experienced the strongest rotation glitch ever observed for a gamma-ray-only pulsar. The name of the newly discovered pulsar-J1838-0537 -- comes from its celestial coordinates. "The pulsar is, at 5,000 years of age, very young. And this behavior has consequences.

Teleportation - StumbleUpon Teleportation is the name given by science fiction writers to the feat of making an object or person disintegrate in one place while a perfect replica appears somewhere else. How this is accomplished is usually not explained in detail, but the general idea seems to be that the original object is scanned in such a way as to extract all the information from it, then this information is transmitted to the receiving location and used to construct the replica, not necessarily from the actual material of the original, but perhaps from atoms of the same kinds, arranged in exactly the same pattern as the original. A teleportation machine would be like a fax machine, except that it would work on 3-dimensional objects as well as documents, it would produce an exact copy rather than an approximate facsimile, and it would destroy the original in the process of scanning it. In 1993 an international group of six scientists, including IBM Fellow Charles H. C.H. Bennett, G. Experimental Articles D.

String theory String theory was first studied in the late 1960s[3] as a theory of the strong nuclear force before being abandoned in favor of the theory of quantum chromodynamics. Subsequently, it was realized that the very properties that made string theory unsuitable as a theory of nuclear physics made it a promising candidate for a quantum theory of gravity. Five consistent versions of string theory were developed until it was realized in the mid-1990s that they were different limits of a conjectured single 11-dimensional theory now known as M-theory.[4] Many theoretical physicists, including Stephen Hawking, Edward Witten and Juan Maldacena, believe that string theory is a step towards the correct fundamental description of nature: it accommodates a consistent combination of quantum field theory and general relativity, agrees with insights in quantum gravity (such as the holographic principle and black hole thermodynamics) and has passed many non-trivial checks of its internal consistency.

Faster Than the Speed of Light? Pulsars Point to "Yes" We learned in our intro to science courses that information cannot be transmitted faster than the speed of light. Yet laboratory experiments done over the last 30 years clearly show that some things appear to break this speed limit without abrogating Einstein's special theory of relativity. But now, astrophysicists in the US have observed such superluminal speeds in space in the form of radio pulses from a pulsar. Superluminal speeds are associated with a phenomenon known as anomalous dispersion, whereby the refractive index of a medium (such as an atomic gas) increases with the wavelength of transmitted light. The discovery has been made at the University of Texas at Brownsville, where Frederick Jenet and colleagues have been monitoring a pulsar more than 10,000 light years away. Jenet's group thinks that anomalous dispersion should be added to this list. Joao Magueijo's radical ideas intend to turn that Einsteinian dogma on its head. Could Einstein be wrong and Magueijo right?

Titan holds clue to faint young sun paradox - environment - 04 January 2013 Earth should have been an ice cube in the very early days of our solar system, when the sun was cooler than today. Yet the primordial Earth was a watery sphere. This "faint young sun" paradox has puzzled researchers for decades, but now a look at the atmosphere of one of Saturn's moons suggests a new solution. For the first two billion years of the Earth's existence, the sun was up to 25 per cent dimmer than it is today, making Earth's average temperature up to 25 °C colder. Robin Wordsworth and Raymond Pierrehumbert, both of the University of Chicago, looked to Saturn's moon Titan to solve the paradox. Wordsworth and Pierrehumbert created a simulation to determine whether an atmosphere rich in hydrogen and nitrogen would cause the same effect on the ancient Earth. Volcanic role Wordsworth admits that there is little geological evidence that hydrogen and nitrogen levels were actually that high, but says several factors could have created such an atmosphere.

Vibrations, Frequencies, Harmonics Exploring Ascension Main Page - Turtle Section - What's New? Related Articles: Dear Reader, The up coming channelling has been the most, interesting, frustrating and satisfying articles that I have done so far. The Back to Basics series has been a totally new and different process of producing articles. Communicating non verbal technical information into a format that is comprehensible has certainly been a challenge. Notwithstanding, I have found that there is usually a certain level of distortion in all information being channelled, irrespective of who that is; that which was yesterday and today may not necessarily be the same tomorrow. The back to basics series stemmed from my desire to understand exactly what the nature is of this destructive energy known as "electrical energy". As such, I would appreciate any comments and feedback from those that may be able contribute to the information presented here, and my understanding of it.

Golden Ratio by Mark Freitag Most people are familiar with the number Pi, since it is one of the most ubiquitous irrational numbers known to man. But, there is another irrational number that has the same propensity for popping up and is not as well known as Pi. One way to find Phi is to consider the solutions to the equation When solving this equation we find that the roots are x = ~ 1.618... or x= We consider the first root to be Phi. Phi = or Phi = We can use a spreadsheet to see that these two series do approximate the value of Phi. Or, we can show that the limit of the infinite series equals Phi in a more concrete way. Squaring both sides we have But this leads to the equation which in turn leads to and this has Phi as one of its roots. Phi can also be found in many geometrical shapes, but instead of representing it as an irrational number, we can express it in the following way. I have creted a GSP script for dividing a segment (given its endpoints) into the Golden ratio. Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3

Cosmic microwave background The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is the thermal radiation assumed to be left over from the "Big Bang" of cosmology. In older literature, the CMB is also variously known as cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) or "relic radiation." The CMB is a cosmic background radiation that is fundamental to observational cosmology because it is the oldest light in the universe, dating to the epoch of recombination. The CMB is a snapshot of the oldest light in our Universe, imprinted on the sky when the Universe was just 380,000 years old. On 17 March 2014, astronomers from the California Institute of Technology, the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Stanford University, and the University of Minnesota announced their detection of signature patterns of polarized light in the CMB, attributed to gravitational waves in the early universe, which if confirmed would provide strong evidence of cosmic inflation and the Big Bang.[9][10][11][12] Features[edit] History[edit]

There can be no other way! For Seti to eliminate this possibilty is absurd! by robster Aug 1

Exactly! Tell that to the scientists of the Seti program that still believe that the Ets travel only below the speed of light threshold! by gemini61 Aug 1

Is this a method used/exploited by visitors to our planet? How else can they travel so far? by robster Aug 1
