Our best theory of describing space at a fundamental level is probably string theory.
Every time we get a story that says there was a Big Bang, then people want to know what was before that. And if we find out, what was before that?
I'm trying to understand cosmology, why the Big Bang had the properties it did. And it's interesting to think that connects directly to our kitchens and how we can make eggs, how we can remember one...
We see no objects in our universe that could become wormholes as they age.
The physical fabric of the world had to be such as to enable that ten billion year preliminary evolution to produce the raw materials of life. Without it there would not have been the chemical...
They've discovered that, where all the other galaxies are moving in one direction, ours is going in another. Now, the Big Bang theory says that we're all moving outward.
Our planet doesn't seem to be the result of anything very special.
I became interested in this question of whether you can build wormholes for interstellar travel. I realized that if you had a wormhole, the theory of general relativity by itself would permit you to...
Finding the first seed black holes could help reveal how the relation between black holes and their host galaxies evolved over time.
And what we know, or think we know, about the universe of space and time is changing very quickly.
A big misconception is that a black hole is made of matter that has just been compacted to a very small size. That's not true. A black hole is made from warped space and time.
According to 'M' theory, ours is not the only universe. Instead, 'M' theory predicts that a great many universes were created out of nothing.
From the intrinsic evidence of his creation, the Great Architect of the Universe now begins to appear as a pure mathematician.
If the universe is running down like a clock, the clock must have been wound up at a date which we could name if we knew it. The world, if it is to have an end in time, must have had a beginning in...
Creation is not taking place now, so far as can be observed. Therefore, it was accomplished sometime in the past, if at all, and thus is inaccessible to the scientific method.
Even if there is only one possible unified theory, it is just a set of rules and equations. What is it that breathes fire into the equations and makes a universe for them to describe?
Something pretty mysterious had to give rise to the origin of the universe.
You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.
But that was war. Just about all he could find in its favor was that it paid well and liberated...
The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and...
You better take care of me Lord, if you don't you're gonna have me on your hands.
It was the Law of the Sea, they said. Civilization ends at the waterline. Beyond that, we all enter...
Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.
The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is...
If I'd written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people - including me - would...
Silence is only frightening to people who are compulsively verbalizing.
