time travel, parallel universes, and other useful illusions
A team of scientists from the U.S. and Australia have proposed a new idea suggesting that parallel universes do exist, and that they interact with one another. The scientists, including Professor Howard Wiseman, Dr. Michael Hall, and Dr. Dirk-Andre Deckert, propose that our universe is just one of a large number of parallel worlds, each …

A group of physicists intend to build a time crystal, a theoretical structure of particles that moves in a perpetual pattern (like a circle) without radiating energy, in hopes of constructing a better theory of time.
Speaking of Minecraft, here’s a video of the infamous double-slit experiment being performed in the game with…chickens. Does it actually work? Well, no. But remember: DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT CHICKEN BEAM.
Scientists have developed a “new imaging solution” that operates at a rate of one trillion frames per second, effectively allowing them to capture the propagation of light particles. What you see in the video is a short “burst of laser light” beaming through a [Coke] bottle.
Since the dawn of humanity, we have wondered about our origins, mused upon our purpose, and worried for our end. Countless prophecies have come and gone without incident, natural disasters and technological catastrophes have either been avoided or survived. We are still here. And yet, next year, once again we’ll face the dark cloud of …
