The right wing is seething over the widely-circulated video showing Rachel Smith, the U.S. representative in the Miss Universe competition, being booed by an audience in Mexico after she fell during the evening gown competition.
4 - 8 minute video segments taken from the miniseries "The Elegant Universe".
A physicist explores how second dimension of time could unify physics laws
A team of researchers is proposing that massive quantities of dark matter formed dark stars in the early Universe, preventing the first generations of stars from entering their main sequence stage.
Buying your first telescope can be a nerve-wracking experience filled with buyer's remorse. This week we discuss the basics of purchasing your first binoculars and telescope. What to look for, how to clean older equipment, and how to use it for the first time. Let's make sure your first investment in this wonderful hobby is money well-spent.
It seems to happen when we feel great, or maybe that's when we notice it. Something comes along that pulls the rug out from under us. A domino effect occurs. What joy we had floats away. Our belief in good times, our hope gets stuck. We see people on their merry way and wonder why that isn't us.
What color is the cosmos? Planets, nebulae, and galaxies appear wan and faint when eyed through a backyard telescope. But researchers using imaging techniques show us a much more chromatic view.
It has to be the closest ever shave. Two physicists have proposed that, a fraction of a second before a cataclysm that would destroy space-time itself, the Universe may escape by abruptly collapsing to a virtually empty state that 'resets' it for a fresh cycle of cosmic expansion.
I was fascinated by the visual user interface used in the movie Minority Report. Is now seems that Perceptive Pixel has made a fully functional working technology for this kind of user interface.

The universe contains one and a half times more calcium than previously assumed. This conclusion was drawn by astronomers of the SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research, after observations with ESA's XMM-Newton X-ray observatory.
Imagining the Tenth Dimension - A Book by Rob Bryanton

In the image of the finest zoom in the map, you can see the closest stars to the Solar System. Alpha Centauri seems to be following the road to the centre of the galaxy taking the first detour to the right

Theoretical physicist Lee Smolin looked at the simple, functional elegance found in the the theory of natural selection, and thought that maybe such a concept could be applied on a universal scale. Thus the theory of Cosmological Natural Selection was born.
What if our human existence doesn't mean any more than the fact we are here and we have a brain? And if we have a brain we should be enlightened enough by the accumulated wisdom of 500 years of books to want to be the species that saves the world for us and for them, all the rest, and only by doing that can we insure a quality of life that..
Our universe may be 15% larger and older than we thought, according to new measurements of the distance to a nearby galaxy.
Researchers have determined that the Triangulum Galaxy, otherwise known as M33, is actually about 15 percent farther away from our galaxy than previously measured. That means that the universe could be 15 percent bigger and 15 percent older than any previous calculations suggested.
