“There is an increasing awareness among the world’s scientific community that the properties of the universe are best described not by the laws that govern matter but by the laws that govern information, which appears to be true for the quantum world, is true for special relativity, and is now being explored for general relativity.”

“String theorists believe that the cosmos we live in was actually created by the cyclical trillion-year collision of two universes (which they define as three-dimensional branes plus time) that were attracted toward each other by the leaking of gravity out of one of the universes. There would be no communictaion between the two universes except for our parallel sister universe’s gravitational pull, which could cross the tiny gap. ”

HARIMA, JAPAN—Saying that there was no more knowledge to acquire about the physical nature of the universe, the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics announced monday that it had concluded the scientific study of matter, energy, force, and motion. “Yeah, that about does it for physics,” said IUPAP member Sukekatsu Ushioda. “All done. Math can pretty much take it from here.”

Do the Outer Planets Have Vast Oceans of Liquid Diamond?

Five billion years from now, our sun will die and become a white dwarf. Approximately two billion years after that, its ember core will crystallize, leaving a giant diamond in the center of our solar system.

Does Our Universe Exist in a Black Hole?

“Stuck in a sleeping bag one winters night in a dream, I experienced my birth. My whole body moved abruptly, possessing a pulse-emerging imperative – I have to be born. Yes? So, how? A voice replied, “To be born you must accept that you will die. Along with the life I give you, I also give you death.” Then, I will not be born,” I said with fear, feeling my jugular vein and my heart would explode at any moment. Suddenly the following image came to me: a bridge across a field, the bridge spanned the two extremes: life and death. I had to cross the bridge. The voice said, This is life and death, but there is a bridge, the bridge is love and that’s what you come to cross: the way of love. Then I could be born.”

theres a whole world waiting to be introduced from the world of electronic music production as soon as the technology gets easier to implement in instruments…and not just a mpc and sample triggering. true live electronic music will reach a depth unattainable from now

it will change music forever, i promise you

“Dr. Richard Mushotzky of the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, derived a figure of 1 billion supernovae per year, or 30 supernovae per second in the observable Universe!“

“We have wondered why the super-massive black hole in the center of our galaxy, known as Sagittarius A* [containing about 4 million times the mass of our Sun] appears to be a slumbering giant,” says team leader Tatsuya Inui of Kyoto University in Japan. “But now we realize that the black hole was far more active in the past, it was a million times brighter three centuries ago. It must have unleashed an incredibly powerful flare. Perhaps it’s just resting after a major outburst.”
