  • Hubble Takes a Close-up View of a Reflection Nebula in Orion

    Image Credit: NASA and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI)  ABOUT THIS IMAGE: Just weeks after NASA astronauts repaired the Hubble Space Telescope in December 1999, the Hubble Heritage Project snapped this picture of NGC 1999, a nebula in the constellation Orion. The Heritage astronomers, in collaboration with scientists in Texas and Ireland, used Hubble’s Wide…

  • Boundaries are what divide us

    Change your thoughts and you change your world. Norman Vincent Peale The words seem a wise choice. This is not to support the religious right, or left,  nor to induce fear(contentions of Peale in the article,) but to support the idea of thoughts actually changing the ownership of the property we have paid for when…

  • I Have An Idea

    Now as many of you know,  a creative individual if they are open enough can bring forth something that is accessible to all, but,  if the mind is not in a particular travelling mode, the idea might not appear on it’s radar screen for observation. So understanding what it takes to materialize these efforts on…

  • FLAMINGOS-2 Achieves First Light Milestone

    Figure 1: FLAMINGOS-2 image of the Tarantula Nebula (30 Doradus) located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy to the Milky Way. A concentration of massive young stars in the very center of the cluster is causing the hydrogen gas to fluoresce due to excitation by ultraviolet light. This 3-color composite image combines the…

  • Quantum to Cosmos

    Came by this announcement from Bee of Backreaction and posted here. Looks like it will be an exciting event. The Record.com reports…. You don’t have to be Einstein to appreciate the principles explored in an upcoming festival about theoretical physics, titled Quantum to Cosmos. After all, the festival’s name essentially translates to: “Really, really small…

  • More Thoughts on Angel and Demons

    The Tao of heaven is to take from those who have too much and give to those who do not have enough. Man’s way is different. He takes from those who do not have enough to give to those who already have too much. (verse 77. Tr. Gia Fu Feng)   I tend to disagree…

  • On Creativity and Perception

    David Joseph Bohm (December 20, 1917, Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania – October 27, 1992, London) was an American-born quantum physicist who made significant contributions in the fields of theoretical physics, philosophy and neuropsychology, and to the Manhattan Project. Bridging science, philosophy, and cognition Bohm’s scientific and philosophical views seemed inseparable. In 1959, his wife Saral recommended to…

  • A Point in Spacetime

    It is important that the inclusiveness of perception once extended sees information in it’s unfolding, so that once you arrive at a certain location, one is able to understand how they got there. A lot of times when I speak it is always from a fifth dimensional perspective and these things are already understood in…

  • The Universe and the World in Landscape

    Photograph by Clifford Johnson Sometimes it is important to be able to see in the context that mountains can hold for other people. These people are living in a world “a little perceptibly” different then our own. So what do I mean by this? First off, where is this picture taken? Some of us will…

  • Graphical timeline from Big Bang to Heat Death

    Click on Image for Larger View-See:Graphical timeline from Big Bang to Heat Death From the Big Bang through the present day and well into the future, matter and dark matter in the universe is concentrated in stars, galaxies, and galaxy clusters. Therefore, the universe is not in thermodynamic equilibrium and objects can do physical work.[11],…
