A container of liquid helium in a superfluid state. I do not know how many atoms are in the container depicted here, but it is many orders of magnitude greater than a thousand. It’s rare to observe quantum effects in everyday macroscopic objects. This is because...
First: What is beyond the beyond? One light-year is about 6 trillion miles. Light travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second. Our sun is the closest star to us. It is a trip of 93 million miles. Andromeda, the nearest galaxy to our Milky Way, is 2.5 million...
Quantum entanglement’s long journey from spooky to the law of nature. Quantum physics predicts that particles can become entangled. Quantum physics predicts that particles can become entangled. This suggests that two or more particles can be brought together and...
Why does dark energy cause the universe’s expansion at the intergalactic level but not at the interstellar level? One problem is that many popular accounts make it appear that “space” is some substance expanding and dragging stuff along. THIS IS WRONG. Let me...
THIS BLOG’S GOAL IS TO COMBINE SCIENCE AND CHRISTIANITY INTO A LEARNED BELIEF RESULT. The sheer magnitude of space is a source of endless fascination. The Milky Way alone is home to a staggering 200 to 400 billion stars, and when we consider the billions of...
