Giant atoms. The same as small atoms…
Scientists have proposed a new theory that combines some of the most mysterious phenomena in the Universe - black holes, gravitational waves, and axions - to solve one of the most confounding problems in modern physics. And it's got experts in the field very excited. The theory, which imagines a Universe filled with colossal 'gravitational…

Technology works! Science works! Well, NOT QUITE... (Technology and Science do NOT work!)
Science and technology are for any the jewels in the crown of modern civilization. Their success reflects to the western culture and the nations which embrace them, their glory reflects to modern society and the modern way of thinking. We live better, we think better, we are better humans! And what better argument for that, than to show to…

New gravity: There is no gravity! (as we know it) Focusing on the phenomena. The problem of modern science.
A controversial new hypothesis that suggests our understanding of gravity is wrong has just passed an important first test. First proposed back in 2010, the new hypothesis states that gravity might behave and arise very differently than Einstein predicted, and an independent study of more than 30,000 galaxies has now found the first evidence to…

Observe. Choose. Religion. Science.
We’ve received a birth announcement from 20 million light years away, in the form of our first ever glimpse of what seems to be the birth of a black hole. When massive stars run out of fuel, they die in a huge explosion, shooting out high-speed jets of matter and radiation. What’s left behind collapses…

Speed of light. Speed of change.
Were physicists all wrong about the speed of light? You might think so, given the stories posted recently about a new paper suggesting that light travels a bit more slowly than the 186,000-miles-a-second figure that's familiar to generations of science geeks. "The speed of light has almost mythical significance in physics", Tyson told The Huffington…
