AMS-02 is a multipurpose magnetic spectrometer designed to measure elementary particles and nuclei to the TeV region. In the five years since its installation on the International Space Station, it has collected more than 90 billion cosmic rays. Some of the unexpected results and their possible interpretations will be presented.
I had been on this pathway a long time to ask the question of what lays at the very foundation of our reality. I was intrigued by Plato’s solids to wonder if this was the first attempt to describe the nature of reality as it is?
The Planck scale is the universal limit, beyond which the currently known laws of physics break. In order to comprehend anything beyond it, we need new, unbreakable physics See: The Planck Scale
I was constraint then to know that what lies beyond the Planck scale to say what if anything could we measure that we could call the item of dissertation as a particulate of this reality, then becomes the materialist function I choose to describe reality, as it is.

But more then this, an experiment speaks to me about what the idea is that once I as a detector look at what the photon is doing through the Double slit experiment, is to cancel out the wave function. So some may say, on observation, I create the the foundation of this reality by observing?

A New Home on Mars: NASA Langley’s Icy Concept for Living on the Red Planet: For researchers at NASA’s Langley Research Center, the best building material for a new home on Mars may lie in an unexpected material: Ice.
The all-sky image released today shows us how the cosmos would look if our eyes could detect radiation 150 million times more energetic than visible light. The view merges LAT observations spanning 87 days, from August 4 to October 30, 2008. See:

We’re inclined to think that perception is like a window on reality as it is.The theory of evolution is telling us that this is an incorrect interpretationof our perceptions.Instead, reality is more like a 3D desktopthat’s designed to hide the complexity of the real worldand guide adaptive behavior.Space as you perceive it is your desktop.Physical objects are just the icons in that desktop.
Just one breakthrough in theoretical physics can change the world. Perimeter Institute was created to accelerate breakthroughs in our understanding of the universe. The science is complex, but the basic Perimeter equation is simple: Bright Minds. Illuminating Ideas. Brilliant Future. Be part of the equation:
