  • Pricetag on Naming Mars Craters

    Recently initiatives that capitalise on the public’s interest in space and astronomy have proliferated, some putting a price tag on naming space objects and their features, such as Mars craters. The International Astronomical Union (IAU) would like to emphasise that such initiatives go against the spirit of free and equal access to space, as well…

  • Are Artifacts of CMB Right Next to Me?

     Looking back seems strange to me and that if one is to take such a position then evidence must exist in this very moment? Models of Earlier Events This may seem like a stupid question to some, but for me it is really about looking at where I exist in the universe and what exists…

  • We’ve Come a Long Way

    In 2003 the WMAP craft measured the very small fluctuations – about one part in 100,000 – in the temperature of the cosmic background radiation (coloured regions). These fluctuations, which are in excellent agreement with the predictions of Big Bang theory, originated during inflation and evolved under the influence of both gravity and the pressure…

  • BICEP2 Observatory in Antarctica

    Cosmic searches at the South Pole. The BICEP-2 Telescope is the up-facing dish at right. The larger white dish is the South Pole Telescope (SPT), and the building is the Dark Sector Laboratory. Both experiments observe in the millimeter-submillimeter part of the spectrum, mapping polarization patterns in the cosmic background radiation. BICEP-2 Project First Direct…

  • Laminar Flow

    If symmetry is to have ever existed,  and,  you return to the original state, problems enter the picture because you are introducing “some thing” to the system? For example, you can only back up so far. The question is what does this fifth dimensional perspective allow you? You know Gravity and light have been joined?…
