Sound Shaping our Views of the Universe?

Posted on January 25, 2010 by PlatoHagel

The Sound of Gravitational Waves We can’t actually hear gravitational waves, even with the most sophisticated equipment, because the sounds they make are the wrong frequency for our ears to hear. This is similar in principle to the frequency of … Continue reading →

The Cross Over Point and Time Travel

Posted on May 16, 2009 by PlatoHagel

One of the issues that is evoked by any faster-than-light transport is time paradoxes: causality violations and implications of time travel. As if the faster than light issue wasn’t tough enough, it is possible to construct elaborate scenarios where faster-than-light … Continue reading →
