There are some physicists out there who believe that the universe shouldn’t have existed. They say that it should have been destroyed in a big explosion billions of years ago, but somehow it didn’t happen. They call this theory the theory of spontaneous symmetry breaking. The Argument for the Non-Existence of the Universe According to […]

The Lancet published a global fertility survey from 1950 to 2017.
One of the most important things you can do for your family is have children. But, as more and more couples choose to have fewer children, the world’s population is growing older. In order to keep up with this demographic shift, scientists at The Lancet have published a study that looks at global fertility rates […]
According to a new study led by the University of Bristol, feathers evolved about 100 million years before birds, and this study changes the way we look at dinosaurs and flying reptiles.
In March of this year, a study was published in the journal PLOS One that has been causing a lot of buzz in the scientific community. The study, led by the University of Bristol and involving a team of scientists from around the world, suggests that feathers evolved much earlier than previously thought – about […]
It is said that the moon has been receiving materials produced by life on Earth since the time when plants began to grow on Earth.
If you’ve been wondering how life on Earth began, wonder no longer – thanks to the wonders of modern science, we now know that the moon has been receiving materials produced by life on Earth since the time when plants began to grow! This incredible discovery was made by a team of researchers from NASA’s […]
A meteorite named 2006 QV89, about 164 feet wide, has a one in 7,000 chance of hitting Earth on the morning of September 9 (Europe).
In case you haven’t heard, there’s a meteorite about 164 feet wide headed our way and it has a one in 7,000 chance of hitting Earth on September 9th. So what does this mean for you? Basically, if you’re anywhere near the vicinity of Earth on September 9th at 5:00am (local time), you might want […]
Last year, Alexander Berezin, a theoretical physicist at Russia’s National Research University of Electronic Technology (MIET), came up with an answer that says we are “first in, last out.”
Berezin’s idea is that, as civilizations evolve and grow, they tend to become more advanced technologically. At first, they are the ones leading the way, with the most sophisticated technology. But eventually, other civilizations catch up and overtake them. This phenomenon is called technological convergence. Berezin’s Theorem In a recent paper, Berezin proposed a new […]
Astronomers at LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory), which is primarily intended to measure gravitational waves, have detected waves based on the collision of two distant neutron stars for the second time.
In September of 2017, LIGO scientists detected gravitational waves – a type of wave created by the collision of two objects. This discovery has since inspired many other researchers to begin working on detecting these waves elsewhere in the universe, and with each new detection the possibility that we may have discovered the elusive ‘dark […]
He became a qualified British pilot at a young age
When it comes to accomplishments, there isn’t much that can compare to what Joey Lawrence has been able to achieve in his life. From becoming a qualified British pilot at a young age to being on the UK edition of Dancing With The Stars and now starring in his own US show, Joey Lawrence is […]
According to a recent survey, mosquitoes can be trained not to bite people.
Mosquitoes have played a role in causing illness and death for centuries, but now there’s hope that we can use technology to help control their population. A recent survey found that mosquitoes can be trained not to bite people – and the process is surprisingly simple! What is Mosquito Training? When it comes to mosquitoes, […]
With China’s Chang’e-4 spacecraft carrying seeds to the far side of the moon, hopes for planting trees on the moon have grown stronger.
For many people, the moon is a destination that holds great interest. Not only is it one of the most scientifically interesting places in our universe, but it also has long been perceived as a place where humans can go and explore. With China’s Chang’e-4 spacecraft carrying seeds to the far side of the moon, […]
