Neutrons explain why universe exists

The current laws of physics do not explain why matter persists over antimatter. Scientists believe equal amounts of matter and antimatter were created at the beginning of the universe, but this would mean they should have wiped each other out, annihilating the universe as it began.

Instead, physicists suggest there must be differences in the way matter and antimatter behave that explain why matter persisted and now dominates the universe. Now, an international team of researchers, have found the strongest evidence yet that neutrinos and antineutrinos behave differently, and therefore may not wipe each other out. (1)

Opposites.

Wiping each one out.

With them, nothing can be.

Without them. Everything is.

But everything means nothing.

And nothing entails everything.

Everything contains nothing.

And within nothing…

Everything is.

Look at that star.

You are not blinded by its brightness.

But by the darkness it hides behind…

Computations

Scientists have borrowed a technique from applied mathematics to rapidly predict the behavior of fusion plasma at a much-reduced computational cost. (1)

Trying to compute things.

But we will never do that.

Unless we use the whole universe.

And have it standing still.

Just computing things.

We will then know it all.

And right then it will be obvious.

That the only reason we know it all…

Is because we destroyed everything…

A story told…

Meteorites tell story of Mars’ water history. (1)

But who else can tell your story? But someone else?

You cannot ever know thyself.

Except those who see you.

And when they do, they will tell it to someone else. And you will be liberated. From the burden of Being. And you will be liberated. From the prison of Existence.

And in the songs sang to blissful young lads, you will live for ever.

As only men who never did can…

Mathematics. World. Randomness.

Brownian motion describes the random movement of particles in fluids, however, this revolutionary model only works when a fluid is static, or at equilibrium. In real-life environments, fluids often contain particles that move by themselves, such as tiny swimming microorganisms. These self-propelled swimmers can cause movement or stirring in the fluid, which drives it away from equilibrium.

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London, Tsukuba University, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne and Imperial College London, have presented a novel theory to explain observed particle movements in these dynamic environments. (1)

Random movements.

In a random world.

Particles.

Observed by a human.

Under the Sun.

Shining bright.

Observed by the Galaxy.

Moving fast.

Under the void.

Look.

Particle moving.

Human watching.

The Sun setting.

Galaxy standing still.

Universe dying.

God looking…

Random movements…

Dichotomies…

In a study published in Nature Astronomy, researchers from the United States and Japan unveiled the possible origins of our cosmic neighborhood’s “Great Divide”. A well-known schism which resulted to have on the one side the “terrestrial” planets, such as Earth and Mars and on the other side the more distant planets such as Jupiter and Saturn, with different composition than the first ones.

“How do you create this compositional dichotomy?” said lead author Ramon Brasser.

Brasser and coauthor Stephen Mojzsis, a professor in CU Boulder’s Department of Geological Sciences, suggested that the early solar system was partitioned into at least two regions by a ring-like structure that formed a disk around the young sun. This disk might have held major implications for the evolution of planets and asteroids, and even the history of life on Earth. (1)

A world organized in patterns.

A world split.

A world united under our eye.

Constantly moving. Constantly changing. And yet, staying the same. Ancient Greeks watching at the night sky. Modern people measuring distances. Kids playing. Drawing lines on the dirt. Separating the solar system into pieces. Forming the cosmos in laughter.

Is the cosmos the creation of a wise God?

Or the result of a kid’s play?

Look at the kids playing.

Watch those wise men laugh.

I feel safe looking at differences.

Too scared to think that…

Those two options are not really that different…
