Do Our Laws Of Physics Apply In A Holographic Universe? Scientists Unravel The Secrets Of The Universe

31/12/2013 09:29
MessageToEagle.com - In what way has a holographic universe implication for fundamental physics? If our Universe is a hologram, then do our laws of physics really apply in this an enormous computer projection? "Orthodox physics is based on Platonism: the laws are treated as infinitely precise,...

Scientists find second, 'hidden' language in human genetic code

17/12/2013 07:33
U.S. geneticists say a second code hiding within DNA changes how scientists read its instructions and interpret mutations to make sense of health and disease. Since the genetic code was deciphered in the 1960s, scientists have assumed it was used exclusively to write information about proteins, but...

Is Reality an Illusion? Or, Is an Illusion Reality?

16/12/2013 08:09
There are special ways that these brain cells influence each other. Lateral inhibition is one of those interactions — the more active brain cell tones down the sensitivity of the one next to it, making it less excited. [Read more] ...  

Teleportation Experiments Continue - Record-Breaking Distance of 143 Kilometers Achieved!

15/12/2013 05:43
MessageToEagle.com - An international research team including several scientists from the University of Waterloo has achieved quantum teleportation over a record-breaking distance of 143 kilometres through free space. The experiment saw the successful teleportation of quantum information — in this...

Collapse Of The Universe: Will The Universe Be Compressed To A Small Hard Ball?

15/12/2013 05:41
MessageToEagle.com - Physicists have long predicted that the universe may one day collapse. In 2002, two studies by Stanford University cosmologists suggested that it may be time to rethink this popular view of a "runaway universe." Instead of expanding exponentially, our cosmos may be in danger of...

Holographic Universe

10/12/2013 12:49
A radical way to perceive who we are in the universe by Michael Talbot. A hologram teaches us that some things in the universe may not lend themselves to this approach. If we try to take apart something constructed holographically, we will not get the pieces of which it is made, we will only get...

Explainer: what is bioinformatics?

09/12/2013 17:34
By Mark Ragan Bioinformatics underpins and enables research across the life sciences. This ranges from high-volume reductionist science (genomics, proteomics and the other “omics”, regulation of gene activity, epigenetics, protein and RNA structure and function, cell organisation) to comparative,...

Explainer: what is déjà vu and why does it happen?

09/12/2013 17:32
By Amy Reichelt Have you ever experienced a sudden feeling of familiarity while in a completely new place? Or the feeling you’ve had the exact same conversation with someone before? This feeling of familiarity is, of course, known as déjà vu (a French term meaning “already seen”) and it’s reported...

Explainer: what is an isotope?

09/12/2013 17:30
By Elizabeth Williams, Australian National University If you’ve ever studied a periodic table of the elements (see below), you’re probably already aware that this table reveals a great deal about the chemical properties of the atoms that make up our world. [Read more] ...  

Cosmic dance challenges our understanding of the universe

09/12/2013 17:28
By Geraint Lewis, University of Sydney Deep images of the sky reveal that the universe contains billions of galaxies. Some, such as our own Milky Way, are immense, containing hundreds of billions of stars. Most galaxies, however, are dwarfs, being much smaller and with only a few billion stars....
