From the extraordinary to the bizarre, this is the most interesting and informative website on the Internet.
The US military likes to stay at the forefront of the cutting edge of science – most recently investigating ways they can ‘hack’ the human brain and body to make it die slower, and learn faster.
Can a close look at the universe give us solutions to problems too difficult for a computer – even if we built a computer larger than a planet?
The new branch of physics, Digital Physics, implies that those strange and insubstantial quantum wavicles and their interactions, along with everything else in the Universe, are made of nothing but 0s and 1s.
Is the universe just an enormous, fantastically complex simulation? If so, how could we find out, and what would that knowledge mean for humanity?
The probability to travel through time and space is a question of physics and it’s amazing how many theories actually circulate out there about the feasibility attached to it.
Physicists aren’t often reprimanded for using risqué humour in their academic writings, but in 1991 that is exactly what happened to the cosmologist Andrei Linde at Stanford University.
Researchers from the National University of Singapore and the California Institute of Technology have come up with a simpler way of checking the authenticity of quantum technologies. Their method checks for “fingerprints” from quantum states.
