Gravity Waves detected in Earth’s Atmosphere – A Spiritual Insight

1
Watch Video Here Gravity waves are defined as disturbances in the curvature of spacetime that are generated by accelerated masses that propagate as waves outward from their source at the speed of light. We have known about gravitational waves for more than 100 years, from since a scientist Albert Einstein first theorized the concept about gravity and space. Some sources...

Electricity Producing Bacteria for Bio-Fuel Cell Application

Physicists are studying, working upon, and developing theoretical models of the universe. Recently, Professors Jeffrey Eischen and Larry M. Silverberg have proposed through the peer reviewed journal Physics Essays that matter is not made of particles-waves as was long thought, but more fundamentally matter is made of fragments of energy.  References Larry M. Silverberg and Jeffrey W. Eischen, "On a...

Researchers Develop Biodegradable Printed Display – A Spiritual Insight

0
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that only approximately 15-20% of electronic waste is recycled. The remainder goes directly into landfills and incinerators. The United Nations  estimated the amount of worldwide electronic waste discarded each year to be 50 million metric tons. The reason this is a problem for landfills and the environment, is due to the potentially harmful...

A Microplastics Problem in Plants? – A Spiritual Insight

0
We had discussed the topic of microplastics before (Previous article) and the corresponding environmental problems with plastic accumulation. Scientists are scrambling to understand how microplastics are impacting our environment. These microplastics are the result of the breakdown of plastic materials, bottles, microbeads in face cleaners, fleece jackets and more, and these materials which accumulate in garbage and waste sites...

A New Kind of Matter that Bends the Laws of Physics – A Spiritual Insight

0
Scientists recently have reported on a novel state of active matter known as a “swirlonic state.” In this new state of matter, quasi-particles form a swirlon by groups orbiting their common center of mass. Now in response to an external load, these groups of particles move with a constant velocity proportional to the applied force, similar to that...

(LIGO = Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, https://www.ligo.caltech.edu/page/detection-companion-papers) In this work, researchers were looking for a data set to study a ringdown model...

Physicists Devise a Brilliant Way to Make And Observe Elusive Electron Crystals – A Spiritual Insight

0
Eugene Wigner, a theoretical physicist, published a paper in 1934 where he proposed a new type of crystal may be observed if the density of negatively charged electrons in an electron gas could be be maintained below a certain level, the subatomic particles could be confined to a repeating pattern to form a crystal of electrons, this is...

Mysterious New ‘Borg’ DNA Seems to Assimilate Genes From Different Organisms – A Spiritual Insight

0
The title of this week’s Science topic reminds us of the Star Trek fictional universe. The Borg are an alien group that appear as recurring antagonists in the Star Trek series. The Borg are cybernetic organisms linked in a hive mind called "the Collective." The Borg co-opt the technology and knowledge of other alien species to the Collective through...

Scientists design graphene filter to purify methane from biogas – A Spiritual Insight

0
Watch Video Here Researchers from the University of New South Wales, Australia have developed a graphene technology that is able to generate sustainable energy in municipal wastewater treatment plants. Graphene is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a single layer of atoms in a two-dimensional hexagonal lattice in which one atom forms each vertex. Graphene has a special...

What animal has the largest ears? – A Spiritual Insight

1
In the Mongolian Gobi Desert, China, there is an endangered species of animal known as the long-eared Jerboa. Very little is known about the long-eared Jerboas including how many are left. Nobody really has any idea how many remain and this is why the field of conservation at the Zoological Society is working hard to preserve these animals and...
