Have We Hit Bottom Yet?
Most physicists believe we have already discovered the smallest particles that exist, the basic building blocks of nature. However, this isn’t the first time scientists thought they’d reached bottom, the ultimate limit of minuteness. Continue reading
Black Hole Firewalls and a Warning about Article Preamble
I was asked to comment upon a very interesting article about a recent revelation regarding Black Hole Firewalls, whilst doing so I could not help noticing the context in which the article had been written due to the article’s preamble. The preamble, in a nutshell, informs the reader that the article touches upon a theory which may or may not be true; but if true, will undermine at least one of the fundamental laws of physics. I strongly believe everyone should all be on the lookout for preamble such as this, as the context of article’s content is dramatically more or less concrete as a consequence. Continue reading

Dark Matter Mysteries Darken
The more we learn about dark matter the greater its mystery. Four recent astronomical observations have cast doubt on scientists’ prior claims and assumptions. Physicists believe that 83% of all the matter in our universe is invisible and very different from the matter in our bodies, in planets, in stars, or in anything else we … Continue reading
The Higgs Field – Stephen Hawking is Right or Wrong?
– Much of physics is far too complicated for the ‘normal’ person to understand – but explained in the correct way it can all be understood. – Empty space is not empty – it is filled with something that is similar in a way to the force experienced in transparent water. – A large object will resist water … Continue reading
