Science: Explain it in 60 seconds

String Theory
May 2007
String theory proposes that the fundamental constituents of the universe are one-dimensional "strings" rather than point-like particles.

Dark Matter
Mar 2007
Dark matter is, mildly speaking, a very strange form of matter. Although it has mass, it does not interact with everyday objects and it passes straight through our bodies.

Elementary Particle Physics
Jun/Jul 2006
What rules govern energy, matter, space, and time at the most elementary levels?

Is dark energy lurking in hidden spatial dimensions?

The mysterious cosmic presence called dark energy, which is accelerating the expansion of the universe, might be lurking in hidden dimensions of space. The idea would explain how these dimensions remain stable – a big problem for the unified scheme of physics called string theory.

Ever since astronomers discovered in the mid-1990s that other galaxies are accelerating away from us, physicists have struggled to explain why.

Even though the vibration is imprisoned in these other dimensions, it can extend its gravitational influence into our space. Its gravity is also repulsive in our space, just like the "ordinary" cosmological constant, so it would cause cosmic acceleration.

If Adelberger's pendulum does start to see gravity grow below 0.01 millimetre, it could be a sign that Greene and Levin are right, and the force that's tearing our universe apart really is an invader from another dimension.

ULF 'Blast' caused Bridge Collapse? by Sorcha Faal

Reports from Russia’s Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics located in Irkutsk are reporting today that their Siberian Solar Radio Telescope (SSRT) detected a ‘massive’ ultra low frequency (ULF) ‘blast’ emanating from Latitude: 45° 00' North Longitude: 93° 15' West at the ‘exact’ moment, and location, of a catastrophic collapse of a nearly 2,000 foot long bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Russian Military reports state that the total collapse of such a massive bridge, and in the absence of evidence linking its destruction to terrorist activity, could only have been accomplished by an acoustic weapon, of which the United States Military is known to possess.

These reports further state that one of the United States primary research organizations into acoustic weapons research is Augsburg College, and which is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and most importantly less than 1 mile from the Interstate 35W Bridge collapse.

Transforming Our Crazy World by Jack Allis

Another of these illusions is that the material world we perceive with our five-senses is the only world there is. It's not. Quantum physics has proven that beyond the scope of our five-senses, there is an unseen world of pulsating energy, governed by a cosmic intelligence, where everything is connected to everything else. This is but one of numerous dimensions that we cannot perceive, but which doubtless exist. It is in these realms where we must fight the battle against the forces of evil to create the new paradigm.

Our primary weapons in this challenge are our higher consciousness and our spirituality. Higher consciousness is a function of connecting with the divine spirit, which means connecting with life's vital energy and with the intelligence of a living universe. We make this connection with the totality of ourselves - mind, body and spirit. Once we make this connection, we become capable of performing unimaginable feats in our lives, and manifesting true magic.
