A team of Yale University astronomers say that galaxies stop forming stars long before their central supermassive black holes reach their most powerful stage, meaning the black holes can’t be…

Scientists have finally solved one of the major mysteries of star formation - how very massive stars form without blowing themselves apart in the process. According to star formation theory and…

Solar Astrophysics afficionados may be familiar with videos  showing  moving images of highly active Coronal displays  featuring  jetting sunspots.  This type of Sunspot is…

This is a well-documented Solar anomaly.  The effect  can be loosely  described as  "  the spinning dinner plate  wobble."   This evidences  a …

The Age of Entanglementby Louisa GilderAlfred A. Knopf, 2008 Perhaps there is no greater demonstration of Einstein's brilliance and famous independence than his rejection of the spookiness at the…

One suggestion would be to gain more understanding of life processes. For that, we design science experiments in situ, in vitro, in vivo, and/or in modeling. There are facilities…

In part 2 we closed with the idea that Bohr seemed to be using general relativity against Einstein to save quantum mechanics! A wonderful story. But is it true? Einstein seems to have thought…

We are all familiar with  Sunspot contrails  that appear on the Sun's surface. A   diligent search of solar images will  "infrequently"  reveal   twin lines of…

Massive stars, those up to 120 times the mass of our sun, should blow away the clouds of gas and dust that instead feed their growth.   Despite outward-flowing radiation pressure that exceeds…

Two University of Toronto quantum physicists, Jeff Lundeen and Aephraim Steinberg, say they have shown that Hardy's paradox(1), a proposal that has confounded physicists and science journalists…
