Can a Wormhole Generate its Own Magnetic Field? | Universe Today - 0 reviews [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

Ah yes, wormholes. The stuff that that dreams are made of. The universe is a vast place. The distances involved when talking about traveling to other galaxies are completely mind-blowing. In most cases it would take several lifetimes to travel to even the closest galaxies to us. Now, enter the wormhole. This mythical object makes vast distances null and void by allowing us to take shortcuts through space and time. But are they really possible?

Missing matter found in deep space - Yahoo! News - 1 reviews [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

I'm surprised this is not on the front page of every news website. This is a completely different way of looking at the universe and the way it is tied together.

The future of communication is looking good. In fact it's looking mind blowingly good.

Astronomers get closer view of black hole jet - 1 reviews [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

Under the right conditions black holes will spew out jets of particles at near the speed of light. The mechanism behind this process is thus far a mystery to scientists, but with a new view on one of the jets surrounding a black hole scientists may be one step closer to solving this mystery.

Before the Big Bang: A Twin Universe? - [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

So let me get this straight... Before the big bang, there was another universe only it was the opposite of our own in every way? Well, I wasn't confused, but now I'm not.

Newsflash: Time May Not Exist | Physics & Math | DISCOVER Magazine - [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

Mind-blowing quote from the article:

We see only clocks. If you say this object moves, what you really mean is that this object is here when the hand of your clock is here, and so on. We say we measure time with clocks, but we see only the hands of the clocks, not time itself. And the hands of a clock are a physical variable like any other. So in a sense we cheat because what we really observe are physical variables as a function of other physical variables, but we represent that as if everything is evolving in time.

It's hard to imagine a world without time. It's something that we take for granted everyday, but one of physics biggest problem is the the problem of time.

I don't know if this really qualifies as a flash game, but it is fun.

Human observation of dark energy may shorten the life span of the universe - [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

Quantum Mechanics is just weird. It seems to defy all logic at times. This situation is no different. Basically the idea here is that observing dark matter in our universe may have shortened it's life span by way of the Quantum Zeno effect. What is that you ask? It describes the situation in which an unstable particle, if observed continuously, will never decay. I just really have a problem with the idea that observing something can change it.

Black holes may harbour their own universes - space - 31 October 2007 - New Scientist Space - [Stumbles via StumbleUpon]

This is an interesting idea, but to me it sounds a little more like sci-fi and a little less like science. Although lately I have been seeing a lot of that. I think that scientists think that if you put the word "may" into a statement that means that it is ok to say pretty much anything.

For example; Stars are really made of cheese. You are not going to buy that for a second. But if we add a "may" into that statement it makes it sound a little more believable; Stars may be made of cheese. Hmmm....
