  1. Enter this site http://msnbc.msn.com/id/3077361/ and watch the image with the title THE SYMPHONY OF EVERYTHING. It will help. don't forget to click next and see all of it.
  2. Oct. 8, 1998 - Over the past century, physicists have unlocked the secrets behind radio and television, nuclear energy and the power of the sun. Now they’re seeking the ultimate prize: a “theory of everything” that could reveal a bizarre realm of interdimensional wormholes and time warps. advertisement Such a theory would give us the ability to “read the mind of God,” says Cambridge cosmologist Stephen Hawking. And in Hawking’s opinion, there’s a 50-50 chance that someone will discover the Holy Grail of physics within the next 20 years. It won’t be easy, though: The discoverer would have to find the harmony underlying two themes as discordant as light Bach and heavy rock. On one side is Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity. Einstein saw the large-scale universe as a smooth, curved surface in four dimensions (the three dimensions of space plus time). The gravitational force that binds us to the earth arises from the very structure of that space-time continuum. On the other side is quantum theory. Beginning in the 1920s, a generation of scientists defined the small-scale universe as a collection of fuzzy phantoms. These subatomic particles couldn’t be precisely located in space and time, but their interaction could be described in statistical terms. Space-time's out of joint Both theories are proven successes — but taken together, they’re out of joint. The equations that describe the gravitational field are completely different from those for electromagnetism and subatomic interactions. Moreover, each theory is incomplete by itself. Relativity cannot tell us how the big bang gave rise to the universe as we know it, or what lies within the black holes created by the collapse of massive stars. Quantum theory, meanwhile, only describes an assortment of particles, mathematical constants and equations — without divining the sense and symmetry underlying them all. For decades, theorists have tried various strategies to roll up the gravitational field and the quantum field into one set of equations. Most of the attempts failed. “Whenever we tried to calculate numbers from these theories, we would arrive at meaningless infinities,” said theoretical physicist Michio Kaku. Superstrange superstrings But one bizarre approach is gaining popularity. It turns out that the equations of quantum theory can mesh perfectly with the theory of relativity — if we look at them from the perspective of a 10-dimensional universe. The concept is called “superstring theory,” because theoreticians imagine the core components of the universe as tiny loops of string or membranes vibrating in 10 dimensions. Different resonances of the vibrations correspond to different types of particles. Thus, electrons, neutrinos and other elementary particles fit on a grand cosmic scale, just as the notes A, B and C fit on a musical scale. Kaku says it should come as no surprise that the universe makes more sense in higher dimensions. After all, Einstein made the universe seem more sensible by including time as the fourth dimension. But if the universe we only dimly understand as having four dimensions really has 10 — where are the other six dimensions? Kaku and his fellow string theorists contend that when the big bang inflated our four dimensions into the universe as we know it, the extra six dimensions collapsed into loops smaller than the smallest observed subatomic particle. If humans could somehow identify and harness those dimensions, it might become possible to manipulate those interdimensional fields. You could create stable “wormholes” for rapid transit across the universe. You might even be able to drop into parallel “quantum universes” that operate under physical laws completely different from our own. Needle in a cosmic haystack Exploring such science-fiction possibilities would require resources of science-fiction proportions. There are millions of possible solutions for the superstring equations — and figuring out the right solution for our universe would be like picking a needle out of a galaxy-sized haystack. Even if the theory turns out to be right, probing the shrunken dimensions would require energies approaching the scale of the big bang — trillions of trillions of times more powerful than a hydrogen bomb. However, outer space could open a window to the hidden dimensions and at least provide some confirmation of superstring theory. By observing the patterns of particles and antiparticles flying through space, researchers just might find indirect evidence to back up a “theory of everything.
  3. This is what I found: The Grand Unified Theory explains every principle process that occurs in nature by introducing energetic matter (basic force), which formed wave formations — PHOTONS. Incredibly, these formations then went on to create everything. Energetic matter = shrinking energy and space as well as time by Dr. Chaim H. Tejman
  4. Well, it sais not soon. Who knows??? Anyway it is posibile!
  5. Electric signals can be transmitted at least four times faster than the speed of light using only basic equipment that would be found in virtually any college science department. Scientists have sent light signals at faster-than-light speeds over the distances of a few metres for the last two decades - but only with the aid of complicated, expensive equipment. Now physicists at Middle Tennessee State University have broken that speed limit over distances of nearly 120 metres, using off-the-shelf equipment costing just $500. Jeremy Munday and Bill Robertson made a 120-metre-long cable by alternating six- to eight-metre-long lengths of two different kinds of coaxial cable, each with a different electrical impedance. They hooked this hybrid cable up to two signal generators, one of which broadcast a fast wave, the other a slow one. The waves interfere with each other to produce electric pulses, which can be watched using an oscilloscope. Any pulse, whether electrical, light or sound, can be imagined as a group of tiny intermingled waves. The energy of this "group pulse" rises and falls over space, with a peak in the middle. The different electrical resistances in the hybrid cable cause the waves in the pulse's rear to reflect off each other, accelerating the pulse's peak forward. Four billion km/h By using the oscilloscope to trace the pulse's strength and speed, the researchers confirmed they sent the signal's peak tunnelling through the cable at more than four billion kilometres per hour. "It really is basement science," Robertson said. The apparatus is so simple that Robertson once assembled the setup from scratch in 40 minutes. While the peak moves faster than light speed, the total energy of the pulse does not. This means Einstein's relativity is preserved, so do not expect super-fast starships or time machines anytime soon. Signals also get weaker and more distorted the faster they go, so in theory no useful information can get transmitted at faster-than-light speeds, though Robertson hopes his students and others can now rigorously and cheaply test those ideas. Physicist Alain Hache at the University of Moncton in Canada adds that it may be possible to use this reflection technique to boost electrical signal speeds in computers and telecommunications grids by more than 50 per cent. Electrical signals usually travel at about two-thirds of light speed in wires. Hache says it may be possible to send unsable electrical signals to near light speed. visithttp://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99992796
  6. No...but before it started ringing I felt like going near it! Without knowing why.
  7. No, I had this dream. I am absolutely sure of it. I don't dream often, that is why this one remains in my memory! Oh yeah, and I didn't dreamt it the nightbefore I saw that footage, it was 2 or 3 years before that.

  9. When I was 7 or 8 years old I had a dream: it was the assasination of John F. Kennedy. I dreamed it in black'n'white and it was detailed. After a few years I see at Discovery a broadcast with footage of this assasination. I freaked out remembering that dream. How on Earth did I had that dream then, not even knowing about JFK?
  10. Cofee is a "drug" which has euphoric results. If you drink one cup of cofee today, over two weeks you will feel the need to grink two cups of cofee. Your body gets used more and more with the euphoric state. And to fulfil the body's demands it requires a larger quantity every time. So I sugest u stop drinking cofee.
  11. It looks pretty simple to me : Human history means evolution and evolution is our history.
  12. It depends if he is born to be smart!

    Mars by 2010?

    Since the last Apollo mision, man never put his foot on other planet! It's a gap of 30 years! The lack of interest will simply persist in the case of Mars. Only if something really bad is happening on the planet we will go there. Or if antimater transportation is realesed by then. (wormhole)-not likely. A helthy normal man wouldn't resist so much time in space(mentaly and physicaly).
  14. Did you ever took an IQ test twice? Tell me, it showed the same values? An IQ test doesn't show the true value of the IQ, ut depends on many factors. Mine was: 129,138 and 125. How is that?
  15. I voted NO, because I think that any living beenig is special, it has its own personality and by cloning, it will be only just some fur playing around!
