Memory in Nature
Memory is fundamental to nature. Everything we see around us is an image of the past. Everything that happens in the present is the result of something that happened in the past. The speed of light This is due to…
Earth’s Irregular Rotation
Earth days vary ever so slightly in length form one day to another. The irregularity is so tiny that it was not discovered before the advent of super-precise atomic clocks. We're talking fractions of a millisecond per 24 hours. All sorts…
Creation Myths and Science
Cosmology is a branch of astronomy concerned with the studies of the origin and evolution of the universe. It’s an attempt to
Comet Plunges into the Sun
A comet plunged into the sun early this month. Traveling at 600 kilometers per second through the hot corona of the sun, it is clear that the object could not
Galactic Flares and the Climate
There are quite a number of theories related to cosmic radiation that we may soon be able to test now that there has been a galactic flare at the center of
Galactic Flaring
It has long been known that the center of galaxies are prone to flaring, with huge outbursts of radiation. However, it was not until May of this year that a galactic flaring event was observed for the Milky Way, when…
Black Holes
The black holes that are currently presented as science facts suffer from the same theoretical weaknesses as neutron stars, only more so. Furthermore, the observational evidence we have for their existence can just as well be explained from an electromagnetic…
Neutron Stars
Modern science is riddled with theories that are presented as facts to the general public. As Mark Twain put it: "There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of…
Infinities and Singularities
One of the consequences of a strict particle model of physics is that it requires discrete rather than continuous math to work out formulas at the extremes. Instead of an infinite number of possible wavelengths, we have particles filling a…
